<白>:你知道吗?☆
我很喜欢牵着你的手的感觉☆
那是什么样子 我好希望再来一次☆
懂得让我微笑的人
再没有谁比你有天份
轻易闯进我的心门
明天的美梦你完成
整个宇宙
浩瀚无边的尽头
每颗渺小星球
全都绕着你走

爱我非你莫属
我只愿守护
由你给我的幸福
爱我非你莫属
也许会笑着哭
但那人是你所以
不怕苦
☆o0o0o0o0o0o☆

爱我非你莫属
我只愿守护
由你给我的幸福
爱我非你莫属
也许会笑着哭
但那人是你
所以不怕苦
那人是你所以
不怕苦...
0o0不怕苦☆...

今天天气阴霾
天空是灰色的，下着绵绵细雨。
联想到好多首歌。。。 哈哈。
刚巧收音机也播出了熟悉的旋律。

歌曲名称:阴天
歌手名称:莫文蔚
词曲:作词:李宗盛
作曲:李宗盛 周国仪
编曲:周国仪

阴天在不开灯的房间
当所有思绪都一点一点沉淀
爱情究竟是精神鸦片
还是世纪末的无聊消遣
香烟氲成一滩光圈
和他的照片就摆在手边
傻傻两个人笑的多甜

开始总是分分钟都妙不可言
谁都以为热情它永不会减
除了激情褪去后的那一点点倦
也许像谁说过的贪得无厌
活该应了谁说过的不知检点
总之那几年感性赢了理性的那一面

阴天在不开灯的房间
当所有思绪都一点一点沉淀
爱恨情欲里的疑点盲点
呼之欲出那么明显
女孩通通让到一边
这歌里的细微末节就算都体验
若想真明白真要好几年

回想那一天喧闹的喜宴
耳边响起的究竟是序曲或完结篇
感情不就是你情我愿
最好爱恨扯平两不相欠
感情说穿了一人挣脱的一人去捡
男人大可不必百口莫辩
女人实在无须楚楚可怜
总之那几年你们两个没有缘

菜花头!

昨晚仔细听了石欣卉 “从台北到北京” 这张专辑。 我大哥在大学时认识她，所以买了专辑，给于朋友的支持。他说好听，就借了给我。这几个月，这张专辑就一直躺在我柜子里，直到昨晚。
我对这张专辑的印象就停留在 “从台北到北京” MV 在 youtube 上的宣传噱头，但听完之后，我觉得我哥买这专辑算是值得的。10首歌里，有蛮多首我都还蛮喜欢的。几首歌的歌词，用了简单的文字，但让人觉得有感动度，有写到人心里头去的感觉。曲还蛮大众化，很容易被接受。歌声也蛮好的。
值得一听吧。

初めて君を抱きしめた瞬間に
神様が僕に下した

Life's Horoscope says:

Gemini
A book a bath and no phone calls - could this really be you? Well, yes. After all even the most social creature needs some downtown to rest properly and recharge. You will be back to social butterfly mode in no time.

i've enjoyed myself the past few days..
but think i'm too tired now.. need rest.

Pants Pankuro パンツぱんくろう

today i had a chance to experience life of an attendant doing valet parking..
i sat w many driving instructors on the bench waiting for my dad's car to come bk so tt i can park it for him haaa
it wasnt tt bad.. saw students pass n happily tell frens on the fone, students fail n cry :'(
my only complain is tt i breathed in lotsa 2nd hand smoke @_@

took a bus bk n sat in my fav seat..
realize a adv of taking bus instead of mrt.. can still listen to fm radio cause not underground haa
n saw 2 bouquets of blue roses on my way bk haaa
also many many yellow butterflies.. wonder if any pair of them was 梁山伯 and 祝英台（or 朱丽叶） in their past lives haha

last nite i saw the 张惠美's 精选集 1996-2006.. i was looking high n low for it in dec.. too bad it only came out now.. haha

so happy vday to all my dear frens!
happy birthday to huiyixianggong!! :D

xy says no one can make out anything w this foto
haa but i can
it's the route i take to walk home for 6 yrs of my pri sch
the blk in the pix is her's
my sch jsps is down the road on the right of the pix
my house was somewhere in the direction of top left corner heh

this is chengsan CC
wah so hip now..
where i go 4 my art, abascus, compo.. classes
since i was a kido haha
but i looks real different now..
where the steps are, used to b a bball court i think
hmmm

when xy saw me in my outfit yest at AMK hub..
w a OBS polo n nua-nua PE shorts n specs she told me
peng you.. u looked 颓废
haha is tt a 颓废 look? i love being able to dress lidat out... only provided i expect not to meet anyone else other than my frens
i got abit paiseh when i was going to visit her place to meet her family
so long didnt go visit le, then now tuifei-look. no good.
haaa
but check out her new white/pink specs, quite cool huh
happy birthday in advance! and b safe in china during x-change ya!

today on my way to piano class... i saw q a few things
there was this piece of doodle stuck to the ixora shrub near the busstop.. it had this face on it.. prob a guy w bushy eyebrows n it was attached by using a branch to poke thru the top of the paper.. it looked hilarious! haaa n it was at eye level so i burst out laughing.. but no one ard me seemed amused.. shud haf taken a picture of it heh
then i saw a little girl playing w sand on the floor w some branches.. then later w the tree bark.. it's cool to see young kids play like tt.. like kids frm the past instead of looking damn studious n protected.. thinking tt sand n treebark's dirty n not toys.. haa
then there was the familiar smell of stale sweat coming frm a sec sch boy in uniform.. haa those were the days
n on the bus.. i had a good time watching just-for-laughs gags.. it's damn funny n the only thing tt's good to watch on tv mobile cause it doesnt require u to hear anything n everyone can watch it together.. when i laugh out loud on the bus n i'll paiseh n look ard frm other pple doing the same.. haa finding pple who appreciates the same joke feels good
at tampiness mall, there was the busker playing the song tt goes "desperado.." and standing beside him were 3 young boys selling roses.. i mean one of them's really young, like pri sch?!? hai money-earning kids this days.. but good for them la
piano class only had 1/2 the pple turning up.. but was fun as usual
learnt cords in Am.. n played w some music frm an accordian.. frm a russian piece.. n i think an accordian sounds real nice!
on my way home was on 27 tt packed us like sardines.. had this lady's butt plastered to mine for q a long time.. haaa
n was beside these 3 sec sch boys.. one actually told the other, "从来没有这么近距离跟你讲话。。。" and leaned towards him w dreamy eyes hahahaa the other guy just looked away in disgust.. i had to try real hard not to laugh into their faces.
and i got home la. haa

this was the other cny writing i queued for the "fu" haa

n my yingliu before n after decorations

my family @ reunion dinner!

haa saw this @ the comics section in Life on sat..

this is for peiyun..

rem our conversation on sheep on fri? hee

went bk to nus today to check out Harvey under py's recommendation.
he's a pretty cool guy w blue eyes
n he lies pretty still for me to palpate n ascultate all i want! muahaha

i didnt harrass a guy.. hee he's actually a stimulator dummy who has many many different heartsounds corresponding to 20odd conditions together w their corresponding signs tt u can pick up such as pulses and apex beat n JVP.

was there alone then saw jialin n other meddies so we went thru the diff heart sounds, got a free lunch, n i dozed off in the lib before going 2 orchard to run errands.
i got my perlini's silver earrings polished! they were oxidized n looked more bronze than silver.. so now after polishing, they look brand new! :)

then i headed to raffles place 2 meet siwei to go to jenheng's concert

we had great plans of getting flowers at the florist at raffles place.. but silly me didnt realize it wont b open on sunday. raffles place is pretty quiet on weekends mah

so w no flower n nothing to give jh.. we decided to check out the asian civilization museum shop.. the things in there are of exorbitant prices catered specially for tourists.. and because of my poor sign reading skills, me n siwei also ended up looking at the exhibits for Active, Beautiful, Clean (ABC) Waters Programme held there. haaa

the VCH cafeteria didnt have any food we cud buy for him too so we decided we needed drastic measures haaa
in the end we took some concert advertisement phamplet n scribbled our wellwishes to form a make-do card.. and felt abit sheepish as many many other concert-goers had flowers so me n siwei went to pl*** a bougainvilla frm the shrub outside (SHhhh...) and did a flower-press thingy for him
hahahaa
we thoroughly amused ourselves and were laughing nonstop.. damn funny

despite these goofiness, i really enjoyed the concert..
i like it when music reminds me of something or someone..
there was a suite of English Folk-Dances.. haa somehow it reminded me of huay in UK.. and i cud imagine her doing a little dance to those tunes haa
i think the song tt was most "visual" was Machu Picchu.. as the compere gave a brief background of tt song.. MP being a city in the Andes, that was destroyed, and re-emerged as the City in the Sky.. i cud see all tt in my head as i listened to them... :)
Their Blossoms Down sounded v soothing n gentle.. just the right song to dedicate to a kind gentlemen..
Music frm spirited away was great! just like it in the show which i watched many many times.. and it brought me right bk to my seat in the cinema when i watched it on bigscreen with xiangyun on 27/12/2001 (haa i still have the ticket stub) then.. the colours, the glistering gold bathplace owned by yubaba.. all came bk to me :)
and the encore song frm pirates of the carribean was great too..

the surprise item was the wedding proposal tt happened! v brave guy n pretty exciting haa

then i got home for reunion dinner tt was brought forward by a wk this yr.. i'm so full now! n decorated my yingliu..
so all's done n i just gotta wait for cny to come.

class 95's been playing music frm the 80s, and i've been listening in the ALL 80s Weekend the whole of today..
haa i have a penchant for music frm tt era
and love it when clubs play those songs to dance to as well... cause it's real fun :)
huay! ahtan! let's go for some Cheese when u guys get bk ya haaa

hee.. happiness!

thnx howen n siying for the "birthday gift"

well i used the voucher to buy the book for myself la.. :p

the lights outside tangs..

kept repeating it's sequence..

so i stood there for a little while watching

first they'll have the words just outlined w little lights..

the the light comes on for each letter one by one..

then it'll blink twice!

75 & Dazzling

SHINE ON

TANGS 2007

today's quite an exciting day i think..

well to begin w i seriously overslept n woke up at 11am!
then i had to meet 2 inconsiderate ladies at sengkang interchange who kept blocking my way down the 3 flights of escalator, thus i missed my train by like a quater of second and had to wait SIX whole minutes for the next train (i was already running late)

had balloting for GP clinics n polyclinic
damn exciting!
haaa esp when my ave-luck hand picked number 19 (ahtan! birthday haa)
and Victor slightly before us picked our 2nd fav choice leaving us q kan-chiong..
in the end we had to (sorry raj) pick the one opp raj's house and got serangoon.. not so bad la both me n py have straight buses there..
then polyclinic.. darren helped us pick number 5.. and we got bukit merah polyclinic.. not so bad la.. cause 1/2 of us stay in the north/east area the other 1/2 of my cg stay in the west.. so bukit merah's quite in between :)

aft the v exciting balloting
we had lotsa free food!
haa the exact buffet the ortho pple were eyeing but cant eat.. we get the eat the left overs
muahaha

then me n py went in search of a bookstore.. tt's in a pretty exciting place
haaa
the lift had a 电梯先生 hee
there's the uncle who sat on a stool in there n press the buttons for you
?!?!?!
we got got our stuff but didnt see him on the way out..
i wanted to take a pix of him but py says better not la

oh another exciting thing was Os results were released today..
Chermaine n Carmen called...
didnt get an A for me.. but not too far off la right?
:) dont think too much abt it guys.. as long as your grades are good enuff for the course we want to take then i'm really happy for u all le.
it's been a good 2/3 years teaching u all maths! i really enjoyed myself
u guys constantly see each sunday morning my damn jialat n unglam.. just-woken-up look and never laugh at me for so long haa thanx ya
:) jiayou for all tt's to come in ur lives!

then i went to do some shopping alone aft taking 16 to orchard w py
n spent my night spending my vouchers! haa
bought 2 bks frm kino.. got $40 worth of vouchers frm my birthday! haaa
so decided to buy something for myself
and one of the books is...
花样少年少女（小说）！！！
happiness! muahaha.. the show has brought me alot of laughter.. it's really q funny.. n not much "gek" bits of the shows, tt typical dramas like to have, so i like.. cause i hate those "gek" parts when the guy n girl misses each other because of some stupid situation or evil pple
huiyi! beng! when i finish reading lend u all k!

then i had dinner surviving on vouchers i got when i helped out at Public health screening last yr..

did abit more shopping and headed home..
tangs is having their 75th annivesary i think and they have this hugh blinking sign board up.. i thought i looked quite retro, like frm the 60s n liked it..
then saw indochine at wisma! and thought of serene..
hello ahtan! how are you?
cause she always wanted to check out indochine and i planned it for her 21st but we didnt go in the end cause it served indo-china food which she didnt like O_o"
black angus wasnt tt bad mah! right? great ambience

on the train i kept hearing music from somewhere and realised they were coming frm 2 teenage boys.. wondering where was the source of music.. i saw tt he had a hugh sports bag on the floor
ahaa i actually thought tt he was doing wat i did some yrs back..
cause i brought my radio to sentosa when i went to the beach w my frens and on the mrt i played music frm the portable radio while it was hiding in my sportsbag too.. haaa
n i was really amused, thought tt the 2 guys did the same thing i did yrs ago
but i was wrong
it came frm one of their handphones haa
haa
gadgets these days.. generation gap! my fone didnt have a mp3 function during tt time, a few yrs ago

saw a tiny baby on the lrt.. ?2mths mayb
it had this milk rash over it's cheek.. like Baby H whom i met at kkh..
the cute boy tt shared my birthday haaa

n while i was walking home.. saw many families w kids pushing trolleys w cny goodies in there!
办年货!
i'm gonna do it w my mama tmr :D

i thought i reached home at 810.. haa i dint.
it was already 915 when i got home...
i was under the illusion cause my watched stopped.. not because it ran out of batt but because i think i hooked it again a price tag while i was trying on some clothes and i didnt press the button bk in cause i didnt realize it was out..

so NO GOOD!
didnt study today.. better go do it now!
:D

i had black pepper chilli crab for supper tonight at 11pm

courtsey of my dad's fren, Uncle L, whom i call dua pek (大伯）

he's obviously not my dad's eldest brother but since a logn time ago i thot he looked like my 大伯 so i openly call him tt :)
he's actually one of my fav dad's-fren

i used to sit ard at coffee shop late at night aft my driving lessons to have supper w all my dad's fren while they drink their night away..

i esp love it when they ordered crabs

since then duapek knows i love crabs n haf b frequently invited me to crab-eating sessions w him cause he likes to eat crabs too

i think we have this affinity.. mayb cause we r both crab lovers

n tonight he insist i go join him.. cause i hafnt met him in a while due to busy clinic schedule n stuff.. but i told him i pretty tired wan2 go home le

haa but he still insisted on da-paoing crab for me 2 bring home n eat

so my dad picked me up n we went to say hello n collect my supper which he specially ordered for me!

haa he mus have somehow known tt i'm missing bernard's crabs this wkend cause of reunion dinner so he's ordered this to make it up to me :)

duapek is a v nice old man

but haiz... hard la

tonight esp.. the Green's Precede model n health behaviour models kinda popped up in my head when i met him cause just had HPB tutorial haaaa

but he's kinda drunk already so i decided to work on it another time

he doesnt really take care of his health

n q scared to go see doc cause he knows must haf alot of probs le

身为一个演员，当你无法把自己的角色演好时，你就变得一点用处都没有了。
为何无法把角色演好？
是根本不想再演了，还是心有余而力不足？

managed to catch down with love that was shown on tv last night.

i must say it's a real entertaining show! haaa love the colours, the lines, the wardrobe and the whole idea of Catcher Block playing his game so as to write an exposé on Barbara Novak but ended up being played in her game..

the female lead wrote this book Down with love - saying that love's distracting and how women should fight for their career, ending up threatening the lady's man/man's man/man about town - Catcher Block's way of life... but the battle of the sexes ended when they both fell in love.. aww

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0309530/quotes

it's a pity they took out the split screen phone call scene. haa i saw it on youtube.. but i guess it was too suggestive for kids' viewing and it's a definite no-no for a saturday nite prime time movie slot.. haaa

刚看了白色巨塔的第一集，剧情还蛮紧凑的。

不错哦。。。

fuck.
it pissed the shit out of me when i get irritated by and blamed at when i didnt even do a single shit wrong.
pui.

from now on.. it would totally be ME time
CHP is finally over. i heaved a hugh sigh of relief when the presentation n q&a session concluded today. actually i was q kanchiong before the presentation.. even tho i wasnt a presenter but i must say i think our's the best! hee..

CHP had been fun exciting challenging stressful interesting boring tiring enjoyable and so much more.
it's a real learning experience for me. i learnt abt cofm, other people, and myseslf.
however, the bottom line is i'm glad it's over. finally.

-- fell asleep at the pt of time --

haaa so today is a brand new day!
a last note on CHP, just like to thank my whole gp all the hard work, comittment n understanding..
jeremy's my other gpleader.. i think he deserves the most credit.. he led the gp along when i was on MC.. he always has many many interesting ideas and grasp shankar's concepts real fast.. always remind me how to sound more diplomatic.. we're both kinda workaholics who haf no trouble discussing CHP, talking thru every single issue brought up by everyone until wee hrs of the morn.. think the latest was 3+am. and we talk to each other everynight frm 2jan till the end of fieldwork haaa so yep good tt we r both nocturnal. and his last short ppt ans to jinesh/shameer's qn was impressive! i really love it. it's his eloquence and intellect tt got us this far i think.. so thnx jeremy, it's been a pleasure working w him.

then there were the other subgroup leaders tt i haf to lias w cause i was the gp leader.

there was jessica.. my lit review rep who worked real efficiently during my paeds posting right frm the beginning of time after we have settled on the topic. she's the shen in lit review and her knowledge abt all the articles is impressive. and she's also our most impt treasurer.. always keeping track of our finances n buying food for DA team when we worked till 10+.. she's also v articulate n always puts things in perspective..

there was suhui.. my questionnaire rep. haa who was the one who got me to start working in dec.. while i was still going out everyday to haf fun before my GE episode.. he has Professionalism and Vigilance! haaaa ok, let's throw in Integrity as well... thnx for dragging me along to work in dec.. it sure saved us alot of time in jan! and he painstakingly made all the changes to the qn and we had so many many versions aft all those discussion w our tutors!

there was tracy.. my methodology rep.. she picked our random sample w excel! she's real zai w these things.. i'm still pretty clueless abt excel till this day but she n jeremy always knew how to go abt generating numbers and stuff and she's more than the methodology rep.. she worked so hard for everything.. field work, DA etc... haaa it's been fun ya! esp the nite before presentation when we wanted to stab excel in his heart! haaa addding/counting.. and her constant need to run everything w spss heee

there was chihchiang.. my dataentry rep.. i respect the way he protected his dataentry pple and shield them frm alot of work.. he did most of the changes we gave him himself and specifically said i cant touch his pple anymore unless absolutely necessarily aft they finished haa so good for them to have such a protective leader.. and he'll always come when i ask him to for other gp meetings to help out.. all the way frm bishan n i really appreciate it.

there was weidi.. my dataanalysis boss! he likes to call me laobanniang.. but he's boss of DA! he singlehandedly created the first set of dummytables w/in a day and took up the hugh task of collating the data frm all four gps.. running lotsa spss himself to check n explore other possibilites... it's been a pleasure working in his DA team.. and we everything also can shangliang. :)

there was howen.. my presentation rep! he led the presentation team and they actually came up w a presentation tt our tutors are v happy w.. frm the minute details of fontsize fontcolour background.. the exact content and eloquence frm the four presetators.. cause i didnt really work directly w him n aishu i didnt get to know them alot better.. as my bit was more for DA n jeremy covered more for P+P.. but he's real efficient n has his own concepts of how he wans the team to work and started to plan way ahead of time immed aft fieldwork

there was aishu.. my paper rep.. she came up w the headings and structure of the paper even before me n jeremy asked for it and had already lias n discuss w the tutors while we were still working at the front part of the project.. so it was great putting howen n aishu as our P+P rep as they are both v motivated individuals who had a v clear direction as to where they were going.

aft all the reps were mentioned..
there were of course the pple i worked closely w like my fieldwork team.. esp my subgp like mark n qinyong.. i didnt know them at all before this and it's nice to get to know them during CHP.. at first since we dont noe each other we walked ard like 3 silence souls and there wasnt much conversation but towards the end of fieldwork we will chitchat abit n i got to know them better.. they're actually q funny pple and altho we dont work super long hrs on the field but we work v hard n maximize the time we had there.. there v focused and we'll just cover all our gounds in an efficient way and be done. and i liked the way we worked together :)

there was the other 1/2 of team3.. which i dint really work together w but sometimes our paths will cross.. of course there was py who stayed across the rd and we'll together w fq mop up all the left over flats for NC 6 and stuff.. going ard on wkends n late at night knocking on all doors tt didnt wan2 open for us.. there was suhui who gave me a ride n suhui n boontar are neigbours tt sat in the row in front of ours in M2 and we already know each other liao so haa q fun to chat w them when we meet on the field. of coz must mention fuqiang if i tok abt fieldwork.. he kinda covered 3 or more shifts for our 4 male gpmates by accompanying me n py ard the neighbourhood at nite and doing all the NCs for our gp. thnx man.

and fq, siying, mark, boontar, who reported to me on time everynite of fieldwork for collation of results. thnx i really appreciate it.

my dataanalysis subteam.. fuqiang randal weikiong.. haaa all were frens frm last time.. we did the chronic diseases bit which had the most results ending up significant which means we had to go on to stratify and also do all the confounders analysis after tt.. and the hugh trouble of learning how to code for HPT, depression, truly healthy, not truelyhealthy and not hypertensive.. and all sorts of weird things we must rack our brains to code for haa but it's been fun working w them all. randal n wk were my kakis frm csfc days and really miss those days we go ard sgh n find pts and learn examination techniques n presentation together and time each other n correct each other's mistakes. i got chopped frm py in our subgp but i had a real enjoyable time doing med n surg w them! :) they are the work on demand kinda pple.. we'll work to 2-3am just cause presentation team needed more results.. and everything we did's triple checked to ensure all 3 of us get the same numbers before we submit.. the sad bit is we always manually do stuff on spss.. cause dont haf enuff knowledge to get them to do wat we want haaa.. thanx guys for doing all the work!

cant possibly mention all 37 other gp mates here but i had many diff individual experiences working w them and they had been enjoyable! so yup thnx guys.

to the tutors.. thnx to drshankar for his invaluable guidance. i mean it he really guided as along.. teaching us alot of things and answering all our qn so tt we wont b like lost sheep having to figure out many things for the first time.. altho he's abit long winded but i appreciate the fact tt he's v sincere and truly helped us alot.. thankyou.
dr wong for being there at all our meetings and input
prof saw for telling us certain salient points. she wasnt w us alot but i must say tt the things she said were all gd learning pts.

so byebye CHP and welcome Pros!

also i went to do my hair on thurs nite!
haaa spent 180 but i'm happy w it so it's all tt matters.. :D thnx eunice for recommending me her hair dresser.. and thnx eric for doing the hair for me..
i kinda chopped off all the permed parts! putting an end to my sponataneous hair-perming-drastic-change-in-hairstyle episode last last nov. i'll miss the little curled bits tt i used to like to play w but str hair's a good try.. but the look i had yest which everyone said nice.. is not easily achievable i think cause the hairdresser styled it for me.. so i must take this wkend n all my days frm now on to experiment n hone my skills! haaa i'll try. it might mean having to scarifice my sleep n wake up 1/2hr earlier to do it.. macam like the troublesome hair-curling-w-styling cream days hee
but 3.5hrs i dyed highlighted cut n treated my hair n went home happy
hope it brings me luck for the new yr la!

yest met up w carmen! so long hafnt seen her le.. really miss her.. and aft we met up i went loitering ard the underground shopping area of raffles place mrt.. miss days shopping there when i interned at ocbc. n i came across this place set up where pple interested in chinese painting and calligraphy were drawing n writing cny-related paintings n wordings to give it for free.. they only encourage u to make a donation to the smrt silver tribute fund.. i was drawn by the crowd n the long queue and was real intrigued when i stood them watching them churn out all the beautiful paintings n calligraphy in front of my eyes.. the chinese paintings reminded me of sec3 days when i went for 水上学堂 travelling along 长江三峡 and learnt a lesson of chinese painting :)
then i went to the calligraphy table and i saw this gentleman in blue who wrote this nice 福 on red paper and i really liked it. tot it would b nice to have it at home this cny n decided to queue for it.. it was a long long queue and i waited abt 1/2 hr before i got there.. before it was my turn, this old gentleman came.. and he wrote for the few pple in front of me.. n i think it's real cool.. so i decided to ask him to write something for me as well..
when he saw me he asked if i were a student and wat was i studying.. and i said yup.. i'm studing medicine.. so in the end he wrote for me:

道

杏 学

林 海

万 千

卉 航

争 竞

芳 渡

he told me tt in medicine.. there will be alot of competition amongst my peers and to shine i'll have to work hard.. :)
i really like it and will remember wat he says..
