May 27th

So anyway, nothing has been happening much since I last updated. But I'll update anyway, because you like reading the boring and mundane stuff.

I've only been back in New Zealand for less than a week, but I've got my ticket to SYDNEY!!!!
Yes. I'll be leaving in 1.5 weeks time. And it only cost me $420!!!!!

I'll be flying Emirates. Hopefully the big and the beautiful of Dubai translates to a super luxurious economy flight to Sydney. I've read the "Inflight Services" section of Emirate's website, and found that I'll be able to enjoy 60 channels of entertainment during my 3 hours journey.

Right, about school...they've seem to have scheduled all the hard stuff into this week. Geriatrics, Ophthalmology and Clinical Exam.
Let me explain the jargon:
** Geriatrics involve helping old people who can barely see much to see something, an extremely laborious task.
** Ophthalmology means we get hospital grade patients. We work under the supervision of a specialist; which means you're under quite a bit of pressure.
** Clinical Exams are when a marker sits in one of my patient consultation/"eye test" and marks me. Because he/she is watching all the time, I'm not allowed to make any mistakes- and everything I do will be scrutinized.

Ok, enough about school.
I went to gym today with GB and he still has a crush on the skinny Brazilian guy. We saw his tattoo today on his torso (in the changing room). GB is apparently not big into tats but he seem to have liked this one. GB has also developed a sudden fascination for everything Brazilian. I can't help but see Brazilian guy exercising his eye muscles more than his skeletal muscles- i.e. he checks himself out in the mirror at least 50% of the time. But he is cute- and skinny.

Right, this is probably where you'll stop reading if I continued....I'm sure most of you didn't get this far.

OK I need a place to stay in Sydney!!!! Help!
