classy

i like listening to singapore radio station class 95 fm when im studying..
i reckon..they have the best mix of music around..

it beats the perth stations anytime

thus marks the beginning of 3 stressfully busy weeks

some people can be so bloody tiresome to live with

especially if they're not family

best mtv since

wait for it...wait for it
let it load!

gimme a break, a study break

study break is fun cos

i get to study!!!!

yipeee! nerd alert

under the knife

my poor baby went under the scapel today

now hes 2 bits less of a dog

one undescended testicle and $400 later, marzo is home with stitches down his abdomen, a huge collar, painkillers and a week's worth of antibiotics.

sillly doggie peed on his stitches so theres a risk of infections thus the antibiotics...
and hes in pain
and that huge collar just has him crashing into everything in the house

..at least he gets to stay in the house for a couple of days.

(who can resist that face?)

do i look like i print money!?

stupid @#$%^&*)_)*& three mobile!!!!

they were supposed to inform me when my phone bill was within 10% of the limit..........
.................but they didnt

the 3 network that allows u to check ur phone usage is supposed to tell you how much you have used............
.................but it was down for a few days

so the end result of all this is ?

a $132 phone bill

a whopping $132!!! how do you expect me to pay it? darn that @#$%#$% three system....

i am so pissed...sigh

im a lion?

words of wisdom from the not-so wise

word of advice...


never, ever, ever, tell someone that their dog is badly behaved...no matter how painfully obvious it may be



its equivalent to telling someone that their baby is ugly...

one heckova big No No.

gimme a S, a T, a R, an E and 2 aSSes

its been a stressful coupla weeks

rush rush rush
study study study (well at least attempt to)

and its only been 3 weeks into uni..

1 more week to study break...cant wait for it..im intending to get down to some SERIOUS study

2nd year 1st sem is no picnic...(altho i did jus go to one this afternoon at mathilda bay with james and the soons ..[sounds like the name of a bad band eh?]).....its more like a long drawn out lunch with an annoying distant relation that jus refuses to leave and makes you pay..

i dont even think i was this stressed out during O levels...phew..

lessons to be learnt from a vet

i know what kinda vet i wanna be.............a good one

one who doesnt give snide remarks about the behaviour of your (badly-behaved) dog
one who is understanding and gives your dog time to calm down before trying anything with him
one who can differentiate a haltie from a muzzle
one who trusts the owner to handle her dog


just brought marzo back from the vets to get a consultation about his de-sexing..
and marzo was a complete embarrasment to me !

imagine...a 2nd year vet student who would one day treat animals, having (qoute) 'a quite badly behaved dog'. one of the worst of his breed i'd bet..

marzo was growling at the golden retriver at the clinic, sniffing everything, jumping up onto the reception counter, shoving his face into people's crotches, refusing to obey orders, refusing to lie down on the ground (this coming from a dog and rolls over and surrenders all day long for a belly rub?!), wriggling all over the place.
Damn did he piss me off!!!!!

what didnt help was the vet..

this young aussie girl who looked no older than some of my classmates. (im not condemming age bcos when im practicing im sure that some people would judge me the same way.)
what irked me was that she was the opposite of all the attributes i listed above!
she tried to physically turn marzo over, not allowing me first to try. and of cos marzo got all excited and struggle as we might, he jus refused to go belly-up. she tried to listen to his heart. did she even ask me to keep him still? no...she whipped out her stethescope and tried to do it on her own. well obviously marzo wasnt going to oblige, he tried to lick her on the face instead. i mean, c'mon girlie! i reckon the owner can handle the dog better than u with all your experience. when im a vet im gonna learn to first ask the owners permission to handle his/her animal, ask him/her to if the animal minds other people handling it 1st before trying anything.


so maybe she didnt do anything WRONG per say. but it just irked me...i was annoyed. mainly at marzo for being the worst dog in the world and embarrsing m..a bloody would-be vet,
but also at the little things i saw that vet do.

out of the 3 vets ive seen at bullcreek vet hosp, ive only liked one. the male doctor. he had a way with marzo and he was the only one who did not talk down to me but treated me as an equal when he found out i was studying vet. he even gave me tips on how to survive through vet school. mebbe marzo jus behaves for men? the other two gave me the impression that they wanted to do it all on their own....

i am dissatisfied with the level of service i am receiving from Bullcreek Veterinary Hospital. mebbe i should just send marzo to murdoch uni vet

epiphany:
the male vet did not view me as just an owner of the patient, but almost as the patient itself. the 2 female vets saw marzo as a patient, but completely excluded the owner as being part of the deal, thus explaining the difference in attitudes.

lessons learnt:
things never to do in future practice, dont be like that girl,
and hope to God that i dont get a patient like marzo.
