managed to catch mr bean's holiday on saturday. it was a little painful in the beginning, like when mr bean got his tie caught in the vending machine. but as the film picked up pace, the jokes and gags got better and better. midway through the show, the whole cinema was laughing and thoroughly enjoying it. i won't blog much about it since there isn't much of a plot, but if you're looking for a brainless movie for your fried cranium, this is the movie for you.

had my first day of orthopaedics today. as the head of ortho said, orthopaedics is spelt with an 'a' and it means 'to straighten the child'. compare this to the american spelling, which in latin would mean 'to straighten the foot'! never knew that. heh. have been posted to the central and western hospitals for these two months. i seriously think it's a conspiracy to get me to work at the western hospital since this is the fourth posting out of eight that i've been posted there. well, at least the teaching is supposedly good. heh.

during my lunch break i got the chance to catch up with my anatomy group mates. the last time i had seen some of them was probably three months ago, so it was great to meet up and swap stories about our previous postings. i miss the friendly ribbing that has always featured constantly during our outings. it's been three years now; how much we've grown. what will the next 2 years bring?

and it's back to mugging anat again. latin, latin, and more latin. here's to a good ortho posting!
