Favourite Places, Favourite Pple

Hi my dearest M3-to-bes (hopefully lah...for me tt is)!

well, after 2 plus wks of diphyllobothrium latum, pseudollescheria boydii, orientia tsutsugamushi & gallons more of such joyful creatures, it's finally over!!! soooo excited abt starting E clinics...but e thought of being out there is a little scary though...being at e mercy of impatient drs & all. hamid! how conspicuous u'll look wif ur flashy but very becoming burgundy stethoscope, i'm sure e dr will not hesitate to ask U to put it to use & listen to some heart murmur. nvm, mf & asrie will be there by ur side!

it's sad that we wont be seeing each other everyday as we have for the past 1 plus or more yrs (or ever since laughtertears was formed at the ORIGINAL fav place & hamid's gang plus me, harti & huilin fused as one...hah!) & of cos we'll definitely feel some pangs of heartache on leaving behind most fav place, 2nd fav place, fav place canteen etc etc where we would just gravitate to one by one to sit & gripe abt shabbir moochala's cartoons tt provoked murderous feelings in all of us come CA time, laugh at hamid laughing, nag at asrie to join us for lunch, get excited when mf eats something other than bao & apple, oh yah who could forget e day when we were introduced to e exhilarating game of SET by our funky twins. ah...reminiscing...

oh i must take this opportunity to explain how e laughtertears got their name. it all started when one rainy afternoon, we were panicking over our 1st physio tut (don't forget, before i become the cool, calm collected person tt u see today, i was a regular ramesh panicker). we stumbled upon these holey red tables tucked into a corner tt we had never seen before. filled w excitement, we decided to sit there & discuss tut. over time, this led to us forming a mini-studygrp & declaring tt special red table our permanent study place. we thought of ourselves as e 4 study musketeers who laughed more than studied. & when hamid laughs really hard, he cries. so there u have it - the laughtertears! soon, we were joined by other fantastic friends & even discovered other perks of studying there - mainly e convenience of e nearby toilets & of cos, e 20 c drink machines.

well even though our fav places will fade in our minds as they get colonized by opportunistic strangers...& 1 day we can walk past as M5s & snort at M1s studying Spots while we rush out to save lives...hahahahaha...(rem harti tt weirdo M5 who laughed at us worrying abt spots last yr?)...even so, i'm sure we'll have many more memories tog right? thru thick & thin & all that. i was just reminding harti abt this conversation we had on e 3rd day of sch in M1:

me looking at some upper M in her white coat: Oh man harti, so cool! one day we'll be wearing that too!
harti: eh, we havent even worn our lab coats yet lah!

yeah, time sure flies knowing we're now on e cusp of upper M-dom.

ok hope this blog doesn't languish into oblivion. so wat are ur plans guys for these next 3 wks? hamid & mf going off next wk right? e rest? u guys wanna movie marathon one day?

ok bye fav pple!
