monash open day
yesterday, as most uni-hunting ppl would know, is monash open day. it was very fun!! i love it! so woke up yesterday extremely early. at 8 am on a sunday!! ok la, i woke up at like 7/8 something then i went back to sleep :P. what you expect?! it's the weekend for goodness sake! anyway, got ready and was at the bus stop by 9:17 am and carolyn (retarded as usual) had her watch at m'sian time. so when she converted to aussie time, she added 3 hours and scolded me, "see la!! told you we were late! when we left the house, we were late adi!" so i gave her the -_-! look and asked her to check her watch again. haihs, she memang stress for nothing.
anyway, went so early to monash that i was basically watching people setting up the place for open day. and i didn't get a bag till later. went for my usual stuff but this time, much shorter. medicine, biomedical sciences, biochemistry,nutrition and dietetics and pharmacology. i like the pharmacology lecturer. she's so nice. and the administrator at the biomed stall. she's nice too. talked a lot with her. haha.
anyway, the highlight of my day was not waiting for 2 hours doing nothing while my sis and carolyn finish their talks. it was going with ash and lynn.
at first, i met them and they were like showing me their slime. lynn's one was pink and nice to play with. you could actually play with it without it sticking to your hand. you can even use it to hit other people. on the contrary, ashley's one was really a good representation of her. R-E-T-A-R-D-E-D. she did everything according to instructions but her green slime just wouldn't be normal. i guess, one's creation can only reflects one's character. haha. but wait...that's not the funniest part.
the funniest thing is when we visit the med faculty while waiting for lynn to finish her talk. you see, i went earlier to the med faculty and met annelise (last yr's plc student, i.e. my senior) and one of ben's friend, lee mei. i do have to admit i thought this guy named shannon was ben. but then, i remembered, ben has lost weight. haha. anyway, he wasn't there so i hung out with his friends. we went and i met lee mei again but this time, she was with her friend, chloe. they were experimenting the instruments on each other. so i decided to learn. ahah. then i thought it would be good to practice on ash XD.
so i put the thing on her arm. but i did it the other way around. after many times, this guy named fahreem came to help. while i was trying the thing on ash, four guys came in with the surgery cap and mask together with their sunglasses. so funny! so fahreem was showing how to do it properly and when he asked me to hear for the first pulse, i couldn't hear anything. i heard chloe's pulse. so, i am not deaf. then fahreem changed the stethoscope and the blood pressure thing. and we try again. but still couldn't. then we try the other hand. still sucked. haha. by this time, i was LOUDLY claiming that ash has no pulse :P. the four guys with the surgery caps were laughing too. so we thought, maybe we should let her hear her own heartbeat. so she wore the stethoscope and was putting the thing on her chest but STILL couldn't hear anything. fahreem officially pronounced her dead. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!! then we felt for her pulse at her wrist. LUCKILY, he found her pulse. she's so lousy. haha. that entertained me for quite long. then i went back. haha.
ok, end of the open day story. now i can't say i'll update so often since school's starting again tmr. today's the last day of my 3-day weekend :(. tests again!! but it's ok. 2 PLUS MORE MONTHS TO GO!!! YAY!!! XD
