Wednesday

Hmm… coming online this late and writing up a blog at this time seems not to be very desirable. I have to refer to everything in the past tense as I would be writing about yesterday. Anyway, yesterday at about the same time, I wrote a blog about how depressed I am about my Pharmacy Practice 1 class test results, but as I was to publish my post, the connection broke. What happened then?!? Well everything I wrote was lost and I got fed up, switch off the computer and went to bed.

Anyway, yesterday (wednesday) I went climbing again in Summit with Amy. In fact, I just came back from dinner with the other climbers there and I'm really exhausted. Anyway today WAS better than Sunday. At least I made it up a few easy routes and my hand was not numb after the climb today. However, my hands are still weak and needs loads of training. I think I will be climbing more often from now on. Maybe once or twice a week if my schedule allows it when the new term starts. Today during the climb, I discovered that the palm of my hand sweats alot during the climb. Making my grip slippery. Wonder why my palm sweats that much. They don't usually do. Hmmm..... Enough wondering, today I got to know a few of the frequent climbers there, introduced by Amy and her boyfriend Amos. They are frequent customers of the gym, some of them worked or still working there. I just have to improve on my climbing skills, and needless to say, my strength.

Well another day has past, and this means it's another day nearer to friday. The day my end-of-semester exam results are going to be released. Damnit, even by writing about the results now gave me tachycardia. I'm worried, very worried if I ever need to resit those papers and yet I'm also excited, hoping will come and pass quickly. I really just hope that everything will be going well. Hope today's connection will not break when I publish this....

Rock Climbing

Finally, after 2 weeks into my holidays, I've done some decent exercise. Today at 2.30, I met up with Amy whom I've not seen since the last day of our end of semester exams. Talking about exams, the bloody results are coming out this coming friday. Can't get my mind off the fear of having to resit for any of the papers. DAMN!! Anyway back to today. I met up with Amy in Summit as we've planned to do some rock climbing. It was since umm... let's see, too long ago when I last did rock climbing. I enjoy this sport as it really works you up. This sport requires strength, endurance, and also skills. The other thing i like about this sport is that climbers have climbing expeditions once in a while to interesting places. However, I'm up to that stage yet. I'm still just a beginner, still far away from the very good climbers they have in the gym, that's what they call the place in summit.

I was in Summit climbing until 6.45 when Amy has to head home for dinner. I didn't really enjoy climbing today as it was since a long time ago since I last climbed, my muscles are no longer up to it and I ended up not able to complete most of the routes they have there. Besides, my hands were all numb when we left. My hands were so weak after that, I can't even hold anything properly. My parents went out for a wedding dinner, and so I had to cook my own dinner. I had a hard time getting things done, I even broke a porcelain spoon when I couldn't grip it properly when took it out. I have a bad feeling that the muscles in my hands are going to ache for a very long time. Well, no pain no gain. Anyway i'll be going climbing with Amy again this coming wednesday. Not going to give up so easily.

My first blog

Well, this is my first blog here and i'm still pretty unsure of what i should write. I was introduced to this place by a friend, Ginn, and, well the idea of putting my thoughts online was a bit weird. I don't even have a good command of english in the first place! But WTH, since i have nothing better to do anyways, this might be a good chance for me to improve on my writing skills and, who knows, my english maybe?

Since the semester break started, i haven't had much accomplished. Or should i say, i have not done anything useful during the break. Besides sleeping, playing computer games, reading (rereading harry potter actually), online chatting and helping out around the house (when i'm told). So nothing productive really. Getting to know some of my friends got jobs and attachments to the hospital really made me feel useless. But... i've thought of it, since i've studied and going to study my arse off, why not take this chance to take a break, it's not like i haven't work before, and this break is only one and a half month long. At least during this break i got to read my comics, watch my animes, and other ridiculous stuffs i don't get to do during my studies.

Hmmm.... well it seems for someone who's 'pretty unsure of what to write', i've written too much already. Maybe i can keep this up after all. At least now i have something to work my brain up a bit, rather than letting it rot during the break.
