sth i emailed to the jym committee..

hello hellozz.. while you all are doing your call for timeout i will be hanging out at trafalgar square, south kensington and going to the british musuems bwahhahamuahahha i just had to say that sorry.. anyway everyone thanks for your concern i'm doing well. i'm sure all of you are very anxious to find out what or how i'm doing in london. i'm currently slacking in my apartment. it's 1138am and i woke up at 930am today. so i guess that sums it up. basically my consultant is a really nice and chill guy(kinda like me) and he told me to just enjoy myself in london. So the first few days i went hospital, help out in operation, help out in clinic, talk to patients, learn about orthopaedics, read x-rays etc etc.. but after that i've been having many days off. in fact, this week i only went hospital once bwahhhaa. and it was only in the afternoon just for a teaching session bwahaha. then next week i'm going to watch liverpool at anfield, then i might be skipping tues also to go check out some lake district national park. maybe maybe not. then like next fri i should be flying up to norway muahaha. hope to check out the fjords, take a train ride enjoy the wild rugged beauty that God hath created and maybe, maybe go see the northern lights muahahah. then i'll be back on sunday 28th march.. not in time for JYM though.

And it's not all fun and games K. i have been going to church. I went to holy trinity brompton the first sunday, and last sunday i went to all souls church. i attended OCF and had a bible study session on ephesians 5. you could say it was a bit of a deja vu. thoughts of caleb chua telling us cannot say bad words from his sermon came to my head. haha kidding. but yeah it was good. i've been having conversations about christianity with my friend who came with me. He's a catholic. have been talking to him about authenticity and my personal revival. and erm yeah...

basically i'm just in quite a relaxed mood. i don't rush around like a tourist. i take my time. like now it's alr 1145am and i still haven't done anything today except quiet time. in fact if i continue at this rate, i won't be doing anything in london bwahaha. but it's a good break i think. but i'm starting to miss home/jym. In fact i miss my mom. haha i told my overseas friends here that i missed my mom and they were like. ---___---

anyway it has been quite cold also. Yesterday i thought that london was getting warmer, so i just wore a t shirt and a wool jacket. then during the night i was dying. haha but yeahh i've been getting owned by the cold here. I came here looking like a tourist in my bright blue uniqlo jacket. But i went to buy a wool jacket from H&M and i think i can safely say that i've assimilated into cosmopolitan london. the greatest reward was if a tourist came to ask me for directions. that would be the climax of my trip for sure. But yeah. i actually haven't done much in london. like i haven't seen any musicals(although that might change tmr), i haven't seen the musuems(although that might change later). But i've had some fun shopping at sainsbury and i must say that NTUC, COLD STORAGE, SHOP and SAVE leave much to be desired, once you come here. The groceries here are so good. good good good.

ok to end off, don't study so hard la you all. You all come london here see how slack the students are then you will seriously laugh at yourself. The medical students here are either drunk or sleeping. haha ok i'm kidding, they don't sleep..
K i better stop here i'm going out now byebye...
