life goes on
So yesterday I got an email informing me that I passed everything, yes including that horrid anatomy exam, much to my awe and surprise and various other synonyms for astonishment. So assuming they didn't post it to the wrong email address, it's all good and over. Although I will be taking out my anatomy book and staring at it every now and then, just so I won't have to go through the same hell again next year. It will be on my resolutions.
And after I proceeded to spread the good news, all I received were responses that ranged from nothing to "huh". What! Can youse not see I have been losing sleep over this?! I demand more sympathy! More enthusiasm! More ice-cream!! LOL!!
There was a weird car parked in front of our house last night that made these weird windscreen wiper noises, but the car wasn't running and the windscreen wipers weren't moving =/ We ended up calling the police. Not sure if they did anything...but at about 1am, a bunch of people came and started kicking the car really hard and yelling at it to stop, and after a while it went silent =/
Moral of the story: when all else fails, kick the damn thing.
I think med is making me docile. I miss my sarcasm (everyone: WHAT?)
Apparently, according to an article in SMH the other day (a reliable source of evidence-based medicine, I'm sure), it is said that the inability to sense sarcasm is an indicator of frontal lobe dementia. Or some form of dementia anyway.
I wonder what that means since some cultures don't even have the word for sarcasm. Chinese doesn't.
Interestingly, Chinese also didn't have the word for "humour". Hierarchical society makes for such...drollness of character, huh.
Incidentally, I think you know someone has worked enough time in the geriatrics department when they don't crack a smile upon hearing someone described as "demented". Yes...Concord has many old, demented patients =/
I must say, I think I'm drifting away from anime. I still download stuff, but the only one I actually watch now is Gundam 00, and I think that's only because I don't want to leave things unfinished =__=; I'm not drifting away from manga, so I don't think it's a sign of me drifting away from that part of the, uh, world, if you like.
And I really should stop collecting J-drama that I never get around to watching =__=;;;
On the other hand, I'm really looking forward to next season's dramas~~~ Practically all my favourite actors will be in something~ =D Eita~ Toma~ (together!!) Kame~ Tamaki~ Mizushima~ Sato~ Maru~ Ohno~~~~
Actually I'm kind of meh about Sato, since I only know him from Bloody Monday, in which he has an almost non-existant role ==; I'm also meh about Kame, since he can't act, and Maru, for the same reason. I hope Mizushima's role is less lecherous than his last ones, or he's really working himself into a niche =___=;;;;
Ohno's new drama doesn't sound interesting. Well, I think it's pretty hard to measure up to Maou to start with, but he seems to have gone back to his familiar comedies. What a waste of an awesome acting talent. I hope Maou isn't the only definitive drama that Leader does in his lifetime =/ (One day, I hope Chinen will be in something with Leader. It'll be so cute ♥)
Tamaki's stuff since Nodame have all been rather...indescribable for me. Hope this one's good, but it has the potential to be really, really bad Orz
So in summary, it seems that the only one I'll want to watch is the EitaXToma Eita and Toma one. It's a Gekku too~!
Edit: As you can see, have gone back to flexible squares. At least it's easier to customise ==;;; This colour scheme is very...edible, which hadn't exactly been the intention. Oh well.
