surgery posting starts tomorrow! i'm quite looking forward to the change of subject, and am interested to discover the magic of surgery which missA has been raving all about. heh. i wish we had a bit of a break between the postings though. yesterday the gang of us met up at city hall to celebrate the end of posting #1. we couldn't decide on a place for dinner so we ended up going to mos burger for some good ol' rice burgers and delicious gossip. then it was on to new york, new york at city link mall to chill out. i must say that the ambience there is excellent. they have large couches and booth seats where about ten people can be seated comfortably, pictures of the nyc skyline all around and great lounge music playing. i finally got a chance to try their hot chocolate ($5.90), which i long for every friday night when i walk past. it's very sweet, and is worth the price. the service was brisk, though i would like to say that the waitresses were better than the waiters. haha.

anyway, the minister is going to give us a talk regarding the future of the healthcare system on tuesday evening. i find it quite amusing that the first email we received informing us of the talk started with," you are cordially invited to..." and the subsequent emails all had the line," it is compulsory for you to attend the talk..." not being very cordial here are we. they're issuing us tickets, and we have our names printed on them. how impressive.

and breaking news, there are no more tickets left for this year's medicine dinner and dance. i wasn't intending to go, but considering there wasn't any publicity for it, save for the few posters i saw the last two weeks, it's pretty strange that it can be sold out. i remember last year's campaign went on and on, and even attempted to reach the clinical years. now we've been left out. boohoo.

surgery starts in eight hours' time. tata.
