The CA is over, but it's only just begun. I really did study for it properly, this time around. And got stumped yet again. I won't rant about it here though, it's already over, and there's nothing more to be done now. I've promised not to be cut up about it, and I won't.

Sometimes though, I wonder what the issue is. It's been 3 exams, and I still haven't seem to have got the hang of studying at uni, studying in Singapore. It's a big change, definitely, from school in Melbourne, but how long does it take? 

If there was one thing I'd pride myself in as a person (God aside, that's another story), I think it would be the ability to learn anything, comparatively fast. Teach me anything, and if my body's able to handle it, I'll learn. Whether it's concepts, practical skills, or anything else, I find I pick things up a lot faster than it takes most others. There's one problem though. While I pick up new things quickly, when I have to go beyond anything above the basics that is graspable in one sitting or session, or move into deeper levels of learning within a certain discipline, I start to waver. Also, while I can pick up things quickly, I tend to lose them just as fast, or faster, if I don't consistently use it. 

People ask me why I'm worried about the CA and the coming big exam, or "Pros", short for "First Professional M.B.B.S". If you talk to me after a lecture about what was just said, I apparently tend to have an idea about what was said, and understand it quite well. But what people don't realise is, if they asked me the same questions regarding that lecture a week later, I wouldn't even remember what lecture they meant. I suppose, herein lies my problem. 

Hmm, the opportunity to serve in my faculty's VCF community has come up. I haven't really been able thus far to serve reliably in church or other outlet, so perhaps this is something I should seriously consider. We'll see where this goes. 

Trying to get wireless ad-hoc ICS working on Linux via Windows Vista is a pain. Doubt anyone has any tips though I guess. It's annoying how I have a spare computer sitting next to me here, and it's doing nothing. Such a waste of an unlimited access to university internet, for illegal purposes or otherwise. Oops, in case you didn't hear, Facebook and blogs can be used against you in lawsuits now. =P

When it comes to relationships, I guess I have some pretty radical ideals. Conservative, naive, but as much as they may be, it's what I believe. Maybe that's why no one's bothered with me thus far. Too much time, effort, thought and work. Hard to understand, hard to grasp, hard to accept, yes, but it's worth it, believe me. So thank you, for understanding, where no one else has before.

Has got to watch a movie. And eat popcorn. Now. It's been way too long since the last time.

Touched.
