02S6B Family!

Hi Class!!! Remember our previous class gatherings??? You dont? Let me refresh that memory of yours...

Class Gathering 2005, Vic's Place

Class Gathering 2006, Aparna's Place

Sadly, there wasnt a 2007 one... :(

But!!!! This year, we managed to get one out!!! I was catapulted into a hypomanic state after the class gathering... lol. Havent enjoyed myself with you guys for such a long time!!!!....

Class Gathering 2008, Shamantha's Place

Its been 1 week since our gathering!! So fast right? Time really flies when everyone is sooo busy and caught up with their work.

Anyway, Im very happy and glad that most of you guys could turn up for our uber class gathering!!! The turnout was fantabulous! Nothing can make the organisers happier than to see you guys there! Thanks for taking the time off and blocking your schedules for this special day!!! Its really great to see all of you again. So much has changed. Girls getting prettier, Guys hopefully getting more handsome... haha.. ppl getting attached left right and centre, some started working, some new specs, new hairstyle, new skintone (esp shamantha), .... soon we shall see who is the 1st one to get married and to bring their little bundles of joy to show the class!!! lol. The future seems bright! Im glad everyone is doing very well. All healthy and enjoying life! Be sure to start collecting your stories now to share with the class on our next gathering!

Thank you Shamantha for giving us a venue to hold the gathering, plus your KTV system is damn cool!!!! I'm sure all of us enjoyed it!!! I would never have imagined the day we saw TMM and YYC sing songs other than the national anthem or the school song.

Thanks Diana for spearheading the gathering to gain enough momentum for it to materialise..

And last but not the least, thanks class for making it all happen!!

Regards,

Your class committee 2008, PE Rep, Victor!

Melbourne!

Hi class... this place is all quiet again... what's everyone doing? Exams are over already, so no excuse to not pen something down here.. haha.

Its almost been 3 weeks down under and so far it has been quite enjoyable. Elecive-cum-holiday mood. Melbourne is a rather nice cosmopolitan city with alot of vibrancy. The weather has been cold but a nice cool contrast to what Spore is experiencing now i suppose. Other than work on the weekdays, weekends have been spectacularly good. Went to tour a few places with my meddie friends...

First on the list was the famous Great Ocean Road. Went to a number of sites along the way. Visited the 12 Apostles in all its spectacular glory. Remember we studied so much about in physical Geog. Finally got see them with my own eyes. Also went to see another rock formation called "london Bridge"... I suppose i will post more photos up when i have time.

Along the way to those rocky stony formations along the sea, we stopped over to see some koalas and to feed some of these colourful birds that will come right down to your hand to feed of the seeds you've got. A number just stood on the top of my head and on my shoulder... haha. The birds are beautiful and tame. Theraputic experience! haha

This is a photo we took at the Crown Entertainment Centre in Melbourne's South Bank of the Yarra River. This is the fire show that happens every top of hour and last for about a full 5 to 10 mins each time, with large burst of fire columns of different strength and different permutations lighting up the southern bank of the river. You can really feel the heat from columns from where the people in the picture are standing. Rumour has it that there have been reports of Roasted Pigeons falling from the sky coz of these flames! haha. But its a novelty i must say, and tourist and locals alike love to watch it. Since it occurs every hour, you will definitely catch it sooner or later.

This photo was taken at Mackenzie Falls when I took a tour to the Great Grampian mountain ranges on the 2nd sunday in Melbourne. It was freezing as I can remember it. Well, not subzero temperature by the looks of what im wearing, but enough to make your fingers go cyanosed and numb. It was a beautiful sight to behold. (NO not my blue frozen fingers, but the scenery of the falls.) On the way there was nothing but hectares and acres of farmland dotted with assorted sheep and cows happily chilling out as they feed on the lush green fields that surround them. The Vineyards were also nice to see... Grapes growing on the vines... and waiting to be plucked for squashing into one of Australia's finest wines...

Okay... enough of an update here. As you can see, i never updated abt work. hahaa. Nope, not here at least.

Take care everyone! I hope to see more posts and updates! For all those that are perpetually online 24/7... do drop a note here k? no excuse!!! Exams over! hahaaa... Sian, Year 5 starts in Late june.... ARghh... nooooooooooooooo. And diana, whats the update with regards to our MEGA class gathering???? haha

Cheers my friends!

tanzania!!

hello everyone! greetings from moshi, tanzania! hope everyone is doing fine in singapore. has mas selamat been found yet? haha.i'm currently doing my 4th month elective posting in Kibosho district hospital, in the little town of kibosho. getting here took a really long time, via plane to the really dusty dar es salaam, a very long and interesting bus ride to the main town of moshi, and a bumpy car ride up to the hospital. i'm currently staying at my mentor's house, with his wife and 3 other medicine friends. the weather here is very unlike africa, like it can get to as low as 12 degrees at night here, complete with strong and chilly winds. on good days, we can see mount kilimanjaro in its full magnificient glory. its really really beautiful, words can't describe it. will post a picture up when i can! medicine wise, there are a lot of differences, especially in terms of work ethics, hospital facilities, types of common diseases seen etc etc.
oops time is running out! will type more next time take care guys!!!

Final notes

Hi guys and girls!!

Will be back on the 8th of June~. Its going to be cold there... Will try to update when i can, and if i can! Hope the Medical student quarters have internet access.

Take care peeps! To all those ppl taking exams, all the best! To those that have finished their silly FYP, Welldone!!! its finally over!.. and to Diana, remember to organise class gathering ah!!! Take care peeps!

LAST but not least,... May i wish HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL THE MAY BABIES!!!! hehe.. May babies rule!!! Taureans!

Regards,

PE Wrap... Victor.

exam break

Hi guys! i just finished two exams and decided that i need a short little break and so i thought this is the best time to post a little something here.
Really glad that we have this blog here. :) great way to catch up with everyone, though i haven't read all the postings..haha.. anywayz... i think i might be able to offer my house for this upcoming gathering! hehe... what are we looking at? catered food? bbq? :)
just a little update about myself.. i am still in my 4th year, and won't graduate till december... Response 1: Yay! that means i still get my long holidays! Response 2: sigh..i am not looking forward to more exams and writing my thesis. :(
I took a module on the Sociology of life course and ageing this semester and might continue doing a thesis on that. Maybe on people's perception of death and dying in Singapore and ethnicity or something. But as just a point of reflection, Singapore is really ageing. I didn't really care that much till i took the module and i started to realise that my parents are also ageing..and are now considered senior citizens! And i am also wondering what people do after retirement. Won't it be so boring? Especially since our life expectancy is now between 76 and 80 and even more! How do people ensure their financial security too? what do you guys think? oh and did you know that Japan has the most number of centurians in the world? hehz... well... ok..i shan't brood on this topic so much for now..haha lest i bore people... but really, time flies by so fast! i can't believe we are all in our twenty-somethings already and friends are starting to get engaged and be married! Speaking of which, anyone here going to tie the strings anytime in the next year or two? hehe
ANyway, i'm going to go to China May-June for a long holiday. Do you guys need anything from there? hehz.. first come first serve!
oh ya..jus another thing i learnt from one of my older friend from America and i thought it'd be nice to share with everyone. We were talking about networking and keeping in touch with people. And he was suggesting a kind of a system like outlook that helps you contain all the permanent contact and information of individuals, categorised accordingly to help you keep track of who you know and to remind yourself to constantly keep in touch with them. In our world today, knowing people and having connections brings you to places! :) I have friends' contacts all over the place..and yeah, i will probably have to do some cleaning up this summer hols.. if you haven't done so, you might want to start doing so, start early! :)
hmmm...another thing that popped to mind was the fact that Singapore is going to have the youth olympics in 2010. And you know how you always hear about other people leveraging on events like this to either make some money or just to help out in a meangingful way? anyone wants to volunteer to help out with the 2010 thingy or to think of some innovative services that people might want then? We could all be young entrepreneurs for that event or just have fun! :)
okie dokie..these are the thoughts i have for now.. i'm going to end off and hit the books again.. *groan*

Good luck everyone with exams! :) Take care! And for those going away, have fun and enjoy yourselves! :)

cheers,
SYS

Helllllllo!

Hi mates....

Its that time of the year again... When Exams abound. Here's to all that are tackling their exams... All the best ya? The dark clouds will soon pass.

As a side note, I will be going to Melbourne to do Orthopaedics on the 2nd May for 1 month... Then off to Perth to visit relatives after my elective for a well deserved break. (the domestic flight from Melbourne to Perth is free as part of the Qantas package!!) So during this period refrain from contacting me unless you are Singtel/Starhub/M1's good friend...

Will be back in Sunny Singapore on the 8th of June! Till then take care Everyone!!!!

JL is going to Tanzania on the 3rd of May. So please place your souvenir orders with her. I have already placed my IVORY ash tray orders with her. HAHA. just dont tell World Wildlife Fund.

Okay lah... till then keep this place alive!!

Regards,
Your PE WRAP! (You better know who I am!)....

Finishing this story of yours....

Nobody said that everything in life would be plain-sailing.
Sometimes, little surprises catch us off-guard and we capsize..

Oops. But we shouldn't lose the faith we have in ourselves.
So to those who are finishing this chapter in their life,
hang in there even if times are difficult
and give it your best shot for the coming finals (:
Jia-you and...

And here's a little something to look forward to..
Graduation Portraits!
You people could check out http://www.portraitgallery.com.sg
Seriously, though they are slightly more expensive, their photography skills are really good!
(Oh no, I am not making a commission out of it or something, I just happened to have taken there before and was a satisfied customer!)

And hmm... I agree we should have a Class Gathering soon.
Even if we can't source for anyone's home, we could still meet for a good meal outside somewhere.

Take care everyone!
melvyn (:

Class gathering 2008 !

Since everything is so quiet, let me stir things up.

Due to my incompetency, we had no annual class gathering last year. :( So this year, I promise all of you that there will be one for sure. BUT, I will need the cooperation of everyone. I am thinking of having the gathering somewhere in July, perhaps after our commencement( for the gals who are graduating this yr!!!). If you have any strong disagreement over the date, pls voice it out! I can only try my best to cater to the majority.

One more thing. I will need a venue too. If any kind souls can offer their house (looks at v****), that will be one major problem solved.

For those who are far far away from home, do let me know if you will be back in Singapore anytime soon between May - Aug. I really hope to get as many people as possible to be present for our class gathering. Every person counts. Without you guys, there is no such thing as a class gathering.


Cheers,
Your dearest maths rep

Interesting...

What I found pretty amusing... What they really meant was Cornea. But for the layman who doesnt know the meaning of corneas, so they use eyes. Haha... Who will actually donates EYES.

Medical Photos from India

Hi guys, Im back in Singapore! As promised, here are 4 photos to share with the class on my trip to India. I have more gruesome photos which can be visually disturbing to the Surgically-uninitiated, but if you could sit through watching SAW1 to SAW4, then i think you are ok. hahaha..

But for now, G Rated photos for the kiddies out there. hahaha.


The Surgical General Ward


In the Emergency OT awaiting the next case...


Our Unit Doctors seeing patients in the outpatient clinic.

(Myself, with 2 female batchmates together with 1st, 2nd year MO Trainees and Registrar during Evening Ward Rounds.)

More pictures to come soon. Gruesome ones will add later. hahaa

Medicine in India...

Hello Classssss!

Greetings from Incredible India! Right now its 2.08pm an i'm in slacking in the Hospital Library. The internet here is crazy, dying as and when it likes.. So Internet access is a prized commodity! hahaa.. Well, if you all must have heard by now, I'm in Pondicherry, a small former french colony located in the state of Tamil Nadu, India! Well, I think that enough of a geography lesson.

Suffice to say, i'm here till 7th March doing an elective in General Surgery at Jawaharal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research.(JIPMER,in short) It is a Tertiary Hospital that provides free medical care, beds, food and surgery to the people. I Kinda chose this place coz its one of the top 5 Medical Colleges in whole of India (I dunno the current rankings..) But that's beside the point, i'm kinda doing this elective to see how rural medicine is like, how medicine is practiced in developing countries, to see the late stage spectrum of disease, to see how life is like in India, and to see if I really wanna become a Surgeon. hahaha.. so many objectives and prespectives to put in place in such a short span of 1 month.

Well, its been about 2 weeks plus here and I must say im really enjoying myself learning and absorbing as much as I can, although I kinda miss things back home. In this short span of time, I have seen and observed soooo many things in the wards, clinics than I have seen back home. There is also a huge huge huge disparity between our standard of living and medical care here and in Singapore. And, if I have learnt anything from this whole trip, it is this, SINGAPOREANS OUGHT NOT TO COMPLAIN ABOUT ANYTHING, ANYMORE. Once you have seen what I have seen here, you would thank your lucky stars that you live a life you live now.

Down here, people are so poor, many havent bathed for a time long enough that they really really really smell so bad that I had to wear a mask and had difficulty breathing when I assisted in the care of the patient in the minor Operating Theatre. Even after the patient left, the stench lingered on till the next day. It is that bad... You have to smell it to believe it. Many of them are so poor that they walk barefooted all their lives with cracked feet, and you sometimes really wonder that maybe all they have is just that dirty piece of loin cloth around them. They are so poor and uneducated... WE need to help them, help them out of their misery. Many times i have seen soooo many countless patients with metastatic cancers... Stage 4, in the clinics. And what i find most heart-wrenching is having learnt that they came from many miles away to JIPMER coz its a free hospital, only to learn the sad truth that their fungating breast lump the size of an orange has spread to her liver and bones. Soooo many cancer patients, all Stage 3 and above.

Survival for them is so slim. YOU KNOW their FATE, YOU KNOW how long more the have got, and consciously YOU KNOW that this man i see before me today, wont be here this time, next year. YOU KNOW all this, but the sad thruth, is that the poor patient doesnt. They dont have a clue. The poor man in rags with who has come to you with a huge mass on the corner of their jaw, and huge swellings in their neck and tells you that his daughter is getting married soon, has to be told the most shocking news of their life that they have stage 3 metastatic Oral Cancer. This stories repeat itself again and again. It is only then that you feel that everyone back home is blessed. There are sooo many 50% or more total burns cases in India, and many are suicide cases. Many are young girls that douse themselves in kerosene and set themselve alight...the sad fact is many live just long enough to go through the excruciating pain before they die. Sad sad sad...

People at home complain about waiting time to see a doctor... BS! Here, people can wait for DAYS before they get seen in clinic! And its not coz of the doctors, but its because of the sheer patient load! We see 4000 patients a day. CAn you imagine your queue number being that long? And worst thing is this, the clinics close at 2pm. So if you dont get seen today, patients just camp outside the clinics till the next morning when the floodgates open and all rush once more to line up and register to see a doctor. This repeats itself on a daily basis. Can you imagine the time you take to see the doctor? And can you imagine the no. of patients the doctor sees? Kinda puts into prespective that these guys work alot harder and get paid alot less than at home. Singapore doctors are already crying when they see 35 cases.

Singaporeans have alot to thank their medical system for! Seriously... At home, patients are treated well. We do Incision and drainage of large abscess under General Anesthesia so you sleep through it. But here, it is drained with little Local Anesthetic or NONE AT ALL! So the patients are fully conscious of the EXCRUCIATING PAIN. You then ask yourself, why? Why are they doing it like this? Its coz, of poor funding, poor resources, poor patients... They have soooo many Incision and drainage cases here that if they are all done in the OT, the surgeon will not stop work and the OTs cant be used for other cases. Things are different here. Patients and doctors face alot of hardship here. There are flies en the Emergency department... Sometimes, a fly settles down onto your wound site... how do you keep things sterile like this?! The Emergency Resuscitation Room is almost non existent.. I saw before my very eyes, the whole process of how a man just expired infront of me, because of the lack of speed of the emergency staff. Sigh... If you thought your life was bad, come here and place yourself in their shoes. Whatever the hardship and life is like here, people eventually get around. People eventually adapt, people eventually accept that this is the way of life, it is how things are like here. It sad, but true.

OH well, I think I have written a little too much on the side of disparity between Singapore and India. haha.

But dont worry, I have ALOT MORE happy stuff to talk about and many photos to show which is the bulk of my trip, but i can only do that when i return. SO many things to say about the food, the people, the operations I assisted in, the stuff I've seen, the many places I've visited in Pondicherry, and much much more...

In anycase, do stay tuned! Hope everyone is doing well guys! hahaaa...

Regards, Victor.

WL in UCLA (USA)

Ok, WL turn now...

Just to set things straight - WL is not enjoying his stay here. But then... what else do you expect from WL? Does WL ever enjoy anything? No... Life sucks. Period.

Major complaints so far, and lessons to be learnt (in descending order of importance):
1) DO NOT live in a Shared Room. Do not underestimate the power of sharing a room with another person has on one's mental health. WL is going nuts now... LITERALLY. Need to see Dr Melvyn. Not to say my roomate is the roomate from hell... but seriously there is no privacy! I have not felt so violated ever!!! This is like a total regression of my rights!!! I feel like I'm being raped everyday!!!
2) DO NOT eat on a Meal Plan. Oh, in case you were wondering WL is living in a Dorm. Now... No laughing! No laughing dude!!! It's not funny!!! See... this is what happens when you spend 1 second and using your ass to make the decision on where to live!!! Stupid WL...
3) Because of pt 2, I am eating Chicken everyday. I swear... I am developing Chicken phobia. I'm in America, you know the world's only superpower... and they do not serve Fish or Prawns in the Dining Halls!!! Let me categorically state UCLA Dorms do not qualify as being part of a "Developed Country". I'm living in 3rd world conditions here man...
4) Food sucks. But then again I think it's because of pt 2 and 3, and most importantly my choice of what to eat is limited. One would think with the variety of food offered at the Dining Halls, WL will find stuff he likes to eat. Hey, that was my reasoning too! Wrong....!
5) Because of my fixed Meal Plan, WL has no chance to eat microwave food! Dude, I'm in America... land of the Microwave Ovens! I haven't eaten Microwave Food since I got here! This is ridiculous!
6) Despite the glowing reviews of customer service in the Western World... let me just say that the Banks and Telcos here are just as evil/bad as the Banks and Telcos back home. Don't do business with the Bank of Americunt. T-Mobile is evil.
7) Climbing stairs. I'm sure you know how much I love climbing eh? I'm fucking jinxed. NJC was on a fucking hill with a shitload of stairs. NUS is on a fucking hill with a shitload of stairs. UCLA, in particular my Dorm is on THE HILL, and you can count on WL to mutter "fuck fuck fuck" everyday as he walks up and down the stairs to get to campus. Always remember to check the topology of the terrain! I swear the next educational institute I go to will not be on a hill!!!
8) Americans have a walking fetish. The UCLA Shuttle Bus and the great genius who designed it decided that the route it should take is around the campus not inside it. So how do you get from one point on campus to another point? Walk... And you know how much WL loves to walk, yeah I really get turned on when I walk long distances. In America, either walk (which I hate) or get a car (which is a problem since I can't drive nor do I have the money to rent a car). Note to self: Learn driving before I graduate.
9) Americans have a burger fetish. If you like bread (like my mother), you're in heaven. If you don't (like me), you're in hell. Oh ya, Fish-n-Chips is not American Food, I can't find it anywhere!, I speculate it's British Food.
10) There are no naked drunk girls walking in the corridor of my dorm, knocking on my door asking me for sex (contrary to what Dhruv mentioned a few years back). Dude, I'm fucking disappointed!!!
11) After more than 6 wks here, I realized that in America, Party = Sex. No wonder I haven't seen any fucking action here cause WL doesn't attend parties.

The not-so-bad stuff (in no particular order):
1) Online shopping rules! I don't have to walk at all to order stuff. To date, I have ordered 8 items to my address :) Caveat: You must have a US-based debit/credit card to do online shopping in America. Don't believe the shit advertisements back home that your Mastercard or Visa is universally accepted. It is not. Your Singapore card is broken here... useless for online shopping. An additional point to note, that if you do not have a US-based debit/credit card (like I did for the first 5 weeks!!!), you are really deprived of this online-ness in this country. However, sad to say to truly take advantage of online shopping you have to reside in US for at least one year. This way, you can order 6-mth worth of groceries and have it shipped to you for free, and you never ever need to walk to the supermarket!!! Also, you can order the X61 Tablet PC that sadly has only US warranty but it is fucking cheap... it has been on perpetual offer since Dec 2007, and I am really pulling my hair out cause I can't buy it (no warranty in Singapore). Arghh!!!
2) The Mexicans make good food, as I found out eventually, because once u remove the vegetables they serve FISH and PRAWNS. Middle finger to the rest of the fishless and prawnless food here.
3) Newegg is good. Amazon is good. Ebay is good. Most companies dealing with computers and IT have good service, but you need to chose the good ones. Much better than the telcos and the fucking banks here.

Other misc observations:
1) Fundamentally, there is no difference between LA and Singapore. People talk about culture shock, I haven't seen it yet. Maybe it's because LA has a large proportion of Asians. So far the major problems have been Digital Shock (in the first 5 weeks), in which all my finances were hardcopy (no debit card remember)... almost went nuts. Only main lingering problem is specific to my accommodations and meal plans, in which I cannot back out of without a substantial amount of money.
2) While America is very much similar to Singapore, it is also different in many aspects. It's like chirality. Everything is same but different. Cars come from the other side of the road, you board the bus on the other side, power sockets have no switch, papers are Letter size not A4 (now you know why MS Office defaults to Letter format eh?), etc...
3) African Americans are referred to as Blacks, Caucasians as Whites. Asians are referred to as Asians... why? I thought it would be Yellow, doesn't follow the trend...
4) Asian girls here are seriously underaged. I swear some of the girls in lecture look like secondary schoolgirls. Damn... I'm an old fossil now!!! This sucks...
5) UCLA has an appalling standard of Inorganic Chemistry. I'm not kidding. In terms of knowledge taught in undergrad courses, the American here are seriously under-learning. But then again, America is top in research... obviously they're doing something right and Singapore is doing something wrong...
6) In America, Med School is treated at the Grad School level, meaning you can only apply after you complete your first degree. I support this system. It's seriously better than the Singapore system, where a bunch of 18 year old kiddies get to join Med School based on A-Level results and interviews... At least this way, the Americans must wayang for 4 years before getting into Med School unlike in Singapore where you wayang for 2 years only... and trust me wayang at the university level is much tougher than at the JC level. Seriously I'm like WTF... No wonder Singapore doctors sucks... Hey isn't alot of the people in our class doctors? LOL... Oops... You can't kill WL remember! Hippocratic oath!!!

Finally, why I hate UCLA. My wife is appearing for a convention on 2-7 Apr 07 in Vancouver. Theoretically, I can go see her and take a photo with her. As in the REAL PERSON. But... thanks to UCLA and their fucked up Quarter system, school ends on 25 Mar 2008, and that leaves me homeless for 2 weeks+. The cost of the accommodation from now till the convention, the convention tickets itself and the bus trip from LA to Vancouver and back... is staggering. Fuck... I should have gone to UBC. Why? Cause mid-Apr is still term time, and it's in Vancouver!!! Arghh!!!

Oh ya if you're bored you can drop by at:
http://uncleinucla.blogspot.com/

There is like almost 180 posts at the moment, so I advise you not to waste your time reading through it. In short, about 1/3 of the post is WL complaining about housing/food and threatening to bomb various American companies. Another 1/3 is on WL lamenting on how lazy he is and how he is not doing any work here. The remainder 1/3 is some more "serious" analysis on America and Singapore.

Oh ya, UCLA is damn slack. I'm taking 20 Credits (MCs) now and I have too much time on my hand. No, don't ask me to tour the place. Details in my blog. And do you believe that the academic counselor was reluctant to allow me to take 20 Credits (max is 19)??? WTH man... Fuck UCLA... there is no pressure...

USA > S'pore! but our food thrashes them!! Haha

Hey guys!

How's everyone doing? Did the laser-mania thing ever materialise? (i don't think so right? haiz) Seems like victor is the most active poster on this blog.. Write something, guys n gals!
Besides the rather heavy workload over at GT here, I'm enjoying myself rather well.. :) Just went to Nashville and back.. Visited an underground waterfall called Ruby Falls, and some place called Rock city (where it's just stones n more stones.)

Btw, Wee liang! Would love to hear from u if u're reading this blog! Post something to share k?
Let's keep up this blog, esp since victor is enjoying himself in Pondicherry n doesnt have freely available internet connection (i presume).. So, less chat in the little box to ur top right; more content on the blog itself! (write a bit also can lah..)

2 pics to share! (The stadium pic was taken at a NBA game.. Hawks won Lakers leh, John..)
Hear from u guys! Take care.

Hello, my beloved classmates!

Its been a long time since i contributed to something here. As John rightly said, can hear pin drop here... I guess everyone is sooo busy with their own lives. Anyway, had to draw myself away from the computer during the past 1 month so that I could concentrate on my Pathology Final Exam, which i can proudly say, IS OVER! So here is my long overdue post!

Hope you guys are all doing fine, admist the super busy lives I see you guys having... Some busy with girlfriend, or boyfriend, then some utterly spent on doing fyp... some always mugging like there's really no tmr... some relaxing like there's no tmr.. lol. Whatever the case may be, take care.

For those that can spare sometime for the collective, do drop a note here! or if really cannot, then like what John said, drop a pin also can.. hahaa..

Take care my friends,
Your beloved defunct - PE rep, VIC!

Ps. Happy New Year to u guys..
