day 22

Its been 22 days since i have left Singapore to go to a foreign land with strangers to study a elective module and an IS module. 22 Days have passed and everyone is everyone's friends. Guess that after the 5 weeks our bond with each other would be pretty strong as we depend on each other when we are in this foreign land. As the saying goes, at home you depend on your parents, outside you depend on your friends. It doesnt hurt to make more friends. Almost everyday is a routine for me and today is no exception. Wake up, go classes, listen in class, eat lunch. Afternoon most of us either take an afternoon nap or just go through the report that we have to write on breast cancer, on how TCM can aid in breast cancer patients. So many scientific reports to sift through and yet so little time to be done. Its currently 1.10am now as i am typing my blog, and i am doing this after i wrote a draft of my report which i still need to consult Dr Teoh tomorrow on it. Lets hope he doesn't have much comments on it. Really clueless on how to write one. Some of my friends here are kind of homesick, in my point of view i think that someday you have to leave your parents and why not do it now and try your best not to think of family and just concentrate on studies and have fun with your friends while you can. Not everyday does such a chance will pass us by and since we are at it, just grit your teeth and endure the homesickness for 2 more weeks and it would be back to naggings everyday. Current technologies also allow webcamming and skyping so i reckon the homesickness wont be as bad as those china students that travel from one city to another in pursuit of a better education. We really live in the comfort of our homes and the perfect care provided by our parents. Sometimes we take them for granted and so i would like to thank them~ Thats pretty much i can think of what to reflect/type today. Tomorrow is a free day and i have already planned to go out with my god-sis, hope there won't be anything that pops up suddenly!(fingers crossed)
