For some unknown reasons, ReCom has fully recovered from its undiagnosed server illness. It's been back to normal since yesterday, and hopefully it will remain so for a long time.
Rejoice, and do make full use of the biggest Malaysian student forum. I will see you there! :)
When it's near the end of swot vacation, I always feel so repulsive about the whole process. This is basically my daily routine for the last nine days:
I really don't want to turn my blog into a tech blog, but one can't help but to share something as amazing as this...
Introduce to you, Microsoft Surface!
Google Map has recently added a "street view" feature where you can view street-level images of major US cities.
You can begin with this link. Within the street view, you can navigate around the image by pressing the arrow keys. If you want to change a location, just click on any road which is highlighted blue on the map.
It's currently available in:
Apparently some editors of a dictionary decided to compile a list of 100 words that all US high school graduates should know. Let's see how I fare:
p/s: I have enabled AnswerTips in my blog. Just double-click on ANY word in my blog, and you will get a dictionary / encyclopaedic definition instantly!
abjureHell, 68. Those words that I didn't know, I have never seen before. Siao eh. No wonder people who took SAT complain all the time. I guess if you go ask Eric, Ren Jie etc, they will tell you the meaning of synonyms of every single term in there. :P

Today will be the last day I officially study in the Parkville campus of Melbourne University. It's the end of semester 5, which means I have already completed two and a half years of biomedical studies in the campus.
Starting from tomorrow, I will have one week of swot vac (study week), followed by four consecutive exam days. After the exams will be exactly one month of holidays, and then I will be starting the much awaited AMS research year. in Royal Melbourne Hospital. One thing good is I will still pass through university everyday, as RMH is just opposite the university. But I guess the feeling will be different. Different group of people, and gone will be the scene of us playing bridge and gossiping in the medical library.
After the AMS, I will be doing clinical years in Austin Hospital for two and a half years. More on that later.
It's not the end, but it's probably the end of the beginning. I look forward to the future.
