Super belated JB post

sorry sorry sorry i know i haven been blogging much lately but very busy lar.... I'm so suay i tell you... all my clinics are either useless or cancelled, and the wards are super dry.. yeah yeah, know every patient is a gem or smth to that effect lar, forgot the saying liaoz... but when you see less than 10 patients in the ward and ALL of them have relatives around, i also feel very sian.. Which was why today, i left kk at the ungodly time of 12noon!!! Buah haha!! My afternoon was scheduled as self-study time aniwei, so i'm using my self-study time to better study myself and my life by blogging (heeheehee... corny i know, but actually i feel very guilty lar)

Anyway, i logged onto my blog yesterday adn i thought the jb photos look very goondoo on their own so i shall blog abt the trip loh... (more abt my "birthday celebration" in kk and *cough* S*D clinic later)

We started our jb trip with a plan... a bus plan... I dunno whose idea it was but when i first heard it i thought it was quite ingenious, not to mention hilarious, but now on hindsight.. SIGHHHHHHH...

Since we all refuse to meet at a designated sensible place (eg. kranji mrt), the plan is to hop onto the same bus no. 170 at our preferred locations. Sooo... WQ will first get onto the bus at bugis, then L will get on at newton area, Wk will get on at coro followed by F and ZH at kap and lastly me at the sensible kranji mrt station. Of course, looking at the plan, one can very smartly deduce that the later you board the bus, the earlier you should be so that you wouldn't miss the rest.. so i set off at a super early time and found out on the train that i would be 1hr early cos somehow *cough cough* the whole plan got horribly delayed.

So there i am, on the train, sms-ing and whining with poor Wk who has been sitting at the busstop inhaling exhaust for the past 45min. And i smartly decided to take the train to boon lay so tat at least i can get abit more air-con.. but hilariously, when i receive the "get-on-the-bus-NOW" call i just reached kranji control station.. haha anyway, i reached the checkpoint just 5min later cos the freq of 170s at the sensible and convenient kranji mrt station is very fast.

After hinting to L that i'm very very very hungry (he's the latest link, but according to him, he tot we were supposed to meet at 12 instead of 11, oh well), we decided to take a cab to the superbig shopping centre, which is a welcome change from our usual outings to city square only or to that one memorable time when we had a 'nice walk' around jb. The shopping centre is really quite nice and had quite alot of food and shopping, so naturally, we the girls went crazy and immediately left the guys on their own after our nice lunch.

We found out that poor L bought movie tix ALONE cos he couldn't find Wq or Zh. From time to time, we would run into Zh walking around aimlessly, on the last time, he told us he was so bored he had already walked around the whole place thrice.. even the food section.. and we cheerfully informed him that we haven even explored the departmental store area yet... but aniwei we took pity on him and went with him for a drink at the coffeehouse area next to our designated meeting place to wait for Wq and L, much like the old aunties and uncles on a tour who hung around the tourbus 20min ahead of time in the hope that the younger ones would come sooner. Wq somehow appeared out of nowhere and claimed that he had been at the bookshop all this time, though Zh says that he din see him. (In o&g, we are taught to use the word "claim" when we think the patient is lying.)

After that, after a harrowing experience in the taxi, we arrived at our seafood area safely, and got sweet-talked into eating at a particular restaurant because the owner offered free 3 packets of keropok (one of which WQ ate by himself.. and only after MUCH nagging brought the other pack for us.. come to think of it.. where's the third pack ah???!!!)
