Darwin's Theory of Evolution

达尔文
作词：蔡健雅 作曲：蔡健雅

我的青春 也不是没伤痕
是明白爱是信仰的延伸
什么特征 人缘还是眼神
也不会预知爱不爱的可能
保持单身 忍不住又沉沦
兜着圈子来去有时苦等
人的一生 感情是旋转门
转到了最后真心的就不分
有过竞争 有过牺牲
被爱筛选过程
学会认真 学会忠诚
适者才能生存

懂得永恒 得要我们
进化成更好的人
我的青春 有时还蛮单纯
相信幸福取决于爱得深
读进化论 我赞成达尔文
没实力的就有淘汰的可能
我的替身 已换过多少轮
记忆在旧情人心中变冷
我的一生 有几道旋转门
转到了最后只剩你我没分

quite an interesting way of viewing the evoluation theory. anw Tanya's new album is nice!

小情歌 - 苏打绿

这是一首简单的小情歌
唱着人们心肠的曲折
我想我很快乐
当有你的温热
脚边的空气转了
这是一首简单的小情歌
唱着我们心头的白鸽
我想我很适合
当一个歌颂者
青春在风中飘着
你知道
就算大雨让这座城市颠倒
我会给你怀抱
受不了
看见你背影来到
写下我度秒如年难捱的离骚
就算整个世界被寂寞绑票
我也不会奔跑
逃不了
最后谁也都苍老
写下我时间和琴声交错的城堡

suddenly, reminds me of 暗巷。 haha

confirmed with RC. the vocalist is a guy.

Cheer Chen's Concert

Found videos with clear and close-up quality (good enuf for such clips) on youtube for A Piece of Summer ~ Singapore!!

陈绮贞's a piece of summer~~

alright. u can get the pics from DanK's blog. cos i haven gotten the pics from him yet. (forgot to bring my camera)

IT WAS A GREAT CONCERT!!!

haha... i really din noe what to expect when i stepped into the hall. sat there. expected to be entertained. but dunno whether it's those quietly sitting there and listening kind of entertainment or HIGH kind. thanks danK for the light stick (yellow one turned out to be blue. HAH!)

she started with slow songs. i tink the first song was 九份的咖啡厅。 and then about 8 other slow songs, alternating those which i noe (i.e. more popular ones) with those which i dunno (i.e. older and less popular ones) haha..

then she started a rock song. HIGH-ed!!! and then it was rock all the way~~~

we couldn't stand sitting down and listening to ROCK music. so stood at the side and waves the light sticks!! woooo.... i like the way she makes the songs different by using different 编曲. so it's normally "eh wat song is it ah?"... den when she started singing... "orhhhhhhhh..." *waves light stick and sings along*

best part was 让我想一想. when the guitar came in, i was jumping around. HAHA and waving the light sticks.

last song (before the 5 encores) was 旅行的意义. it was the song which she'll put on her motorcyclist helmet 安全帽 and sing. actually she did ask the fans to bring helmets with them and put on. but i think only a few (like 10?) brought. (quite sad hor) but i think it's a different culture in Taiwan... before she started singing, she said something like "让我们一起出发吧..." and put on her black helmet, it's something which i'll remember, but cant exactly pinpoint why. maybe it's the sense of "belonging" and "familiarity" when she said "我们 "...

5 encores. i think the audience become wild when she started singing 告诉我 cos it's a more popular but old song.

was quite touched when she said 我不怎么会说话 when she was touched by the audience. then, one of her fans shouted 不要紧， 继续唱歌!!! There was this kind of interaction between the idol and the fan, the fan showing support for the idol which makes me remember again. it also shows that her music alone, can satisfy us all, and she doesn't need to work on her language to make it flowery or watever at all.

the concert ended with her saying 下一次我再来，会带来更多作品. that was what she said in her previous concert too. i'll be waiting :)

Found the sequence of songs:
1 九份的咖啡店
2 情歌
3 就算全世界與我為敵
4 我親愛的偏執狂
5 躺在你的衣柜
6 小塵埃
7 還是會寂寞（大合唱）

MOH to recruit more pharmacists from overseas

WITH the growth in the fields of healthcare, pharmaceuticals, life sciences and research in Singapore, it is no surprise that there is an increasing demand for pharmacists.

However, there are just 0.3 practising pharmacists per 1,000 population here — the lowest among developed countries, from 1.2 in France and Japan to 0.4 per 1,000 population in Denmark.

To bump up the numbers, the Ministry of Health is looking to recruit pharmacists from overseas over the next five years, Ministry of Health chief pharmacist Ang Hui Gek (picture) told Today.

"We'll need more pharmacists, and the supply of local graduates will not be not enough to meet the demand," she said.

Last year, the National University of Singapore's pharmacy department produced 150 graduates, up from 41 in 1996. [i thought it's like only 80-90]

But this is still not enough, Ms Ang added. Ideally, 200 new pharmacy graduates should join the workforce every year.

And of the 1,482 pharmacists on the register here, less than half are involved in direct patient care such as practising in hospitals, polyclinics and retail pharmacies.

This, at a time when pharmacists have become more than mere custodians of medicine, but also an important part of the healthcare delivery system. They now make the rounds at hospital wards with doctors to ensure patients get safe, effective drugs.

So, among the amendments to the Pharmacist Registration Act, which will be debated in Parliament this week, is one to allow the conditional and temporary registration of foreign-trained pharmacists.

This is the first time in more than 20 years that amendments are being made to the Pharmacists Registration Act, which was drafted in 1979.

A Pharmacist Specialists Register will also be set up to anticipate more of such healthcare professionals.

To further upkeep industry standards, all pharmacists will have to undergo compulsory continuing professional education — just like doctors and dentists. A specialist register will be also set up.

In addition, the current Singapore Pharmacy Board will be converted into a new statutory body known as the Singapore Pharmacy Council, with more rigorous registration and disciplinary frameworks put in place.

抢我的饭碗！
haha... why foreign talent AGAIN?!

ya i agree with cheryl they shd juz increase our pay and make us stay in the clinical area.

i also think that they should like pharmacists feel more recognised, instead of downplaying our roles by some economic constraints. why is everything so Singapore?!

i think it should be more of an issue of making us stay in the field...

====================================

for entertainment...
the 王力宏 song which made me look for the album. 帅!

Cheer Chen Youtubes! and some LOWS...

i like her rocker image :) yay!!!

=========================================

anw cello lesson today. felt that it was a total waste of money and time. during the previous week i had already told her that i wanted to do aural with her today, plus some sightreading and some scales. sort of told her what i would expect, as in told her my scales juz go thru some as a test so that there'll be more time for sightreading and most importantly the aural. and since i've told her i wan to do aural, i expected her to find out wat she's supposed to know for aural.. BUT she din...

so.... she din noe wat she's supposed to do... and asked me (again) and i felt that some things she shd do but din noe what is it supposed to be like.. haha.. e.g. for the "echoing" part, she's supposed to play in TIME and she's supposed to coordinate (i tink is by breathing) the 1, 2, 3, 4 or watever timing b4 coming in... so it was quite difficult for me sometimes if the starting beat is an off beat.

and then, sometimes, it's juz quite irritating and hard to memorise the 4 bars of echo-ing if she keeps playing wrong notes and start from somewhere in between...................

interval was ok... and the part on playing the piece and asking qns... i totally gave up on her. haha. told her i'll find somebody (or mayb i play myself or Noteworthy Composer) to play for me. how do u expect me to listen to her Right hand playing and know wat period it is... or wat style...

she juz needs to be more responsible.. or watever the word. how can she expect me to empathise with her that she's new to the system or the country and let her teach me any way she likes...

invested in strings again.. haha $76 for Spirocore C and G.

==================================

FYP is quite stressed. not that i'm stressed. but everybody expects to do alot for their projects. so i'm actually quite stressed that i'm supposed to be stressed becos everybody is stressed.. ARGH.. relac leh. oh i haven started :P HAH

really hope i wun break down anytime during the sem... cos i'm supposed to be the more "relac" person haha.. and everybody will be stressed enuf.... have to learn to be more optimistic and focussed. and also independent and COOL...

the 2MC module is super irritating. cos the lecturers are... super irritating intellectually demanding... YES. REALLY. we feedbacked that we think that it is too much work (the write up and role play for the 2 cases each week). and so they modified. so each grp only need to do a write up...
BUT, 1 day b4 the role play, we'll be told which grp is supposed to role play (kind of last min). AND the role play may or may not be the case which we wrote on...

WALAUZ. win la! wat's the difference.. in the end they wanted us to research on both cases right... (but we've some collaboration, cannot say here :P HEHE)

and the lecturers themselves are quite... (some things cannot say here HAHA) oops... Pharmacy yr 4s shd noe la.. :P 有些话不用多说

anyway, "co" means compound if u're still interested :P HAHA

hmmm went into Guardian today, wanting to ask about the different glucose meter (price and different features) BUT... pharmacist is not available. it happens like 50% of the time whenever i tried to find those Guardian pharmacist...

=====================================

sent yokes off on wednesday MORNING... was there at the airport at 1plus am due to some impromptu jio-ing by nick. so some of us were there. DanK was the earliest, 12plus (i was still at home)... den me rc and mw reached. nick's car with pk and chris reached at ard 2am, due to some zzzzzzz-ing (tsk tsk.. pk... ). some of us brought laptops but NO WIRELESS AT SG. got some starhub thing, but cant connect. so ended up listening to music.

yokes arrived at 3.30am. hee... photos and talked. some touching family scenes...

YOKES, U'RE ALREADY MISSED! (din see yokes on wed and thur. and i cant say "yoke khee, i want keys" anymore.. argh...

the picture below was taken during the last MHM outing (minus nick who was too sick to join us). it was outside yokes' new house haha! somewhere in clementi... it's 2 flats joined together.

===================================

congrats to the new NUSWS exco. u all look like a great team! JIAYOU~

Many posts in a long post

My whole weekend is spent on Pharmacy Practice III, the module which is worth 2MC (cos it's split into 2 sems)... My group agreed that since each week something has to be done, we'll allocated a person to each case each week. So it started with me and Siew Jin. Me with the Herpes case and Siew Jin with the asthma case.... and i seriously think that the Herpes case is not as simple as it looks. suddenly i found info that simvastatin has effect on liver enzymes and i've to steer the role play away from Hep C (at least only say that it's POSSIBLE Hep C) arghh... that stupid character in the case is so 恶心.... got Herpes and chronic Hep C still go and 乱搞 and then worse still, he has depression and hyperlipidemia... [ermz, i apologise u've to take PR4104 to understand all these haha]

i spent the whole weekend doing it la! looking for information, piecing everything together, and do up a role play. then still have to send it to everybody and get their comments/edit. and then piece everything together again by Tuesday meeting/role-play rehearsal...

i swear the Pharmacy dept wants to kill us. It's only the first week. And i'm sure things will get piled up along the way.

then, when i finished email-ing my group and not wanting to start looking at their comments yet, i looked at the drug i'm supposed to do for my drug info sheet (same module). I'm supposed to write up on "Mag Trisilicate Co Tab"... I noe wat's "mag trisilicate" and "tab" but wat the hell is "co".... grrrr... looks like it's some co-precipitate but wat is it "co-precipitating" with?! looks like i'm going to head down to guardian tmr, pretend to be a patient and ask the pharmacist...

okiez.. i admit i'm whining.. but i'm PEK CEK.... haiz...

===============================================

Some other stuff

Some updates which i did not blog about:

1. yokes' surprise party: the more surprised she was, the happier I am. good plot, good acting, good food by BBQ wholesale, and i think the "planning committee" rock :P but unfortunately, Nick kena bitten by CRAZY ants at pit D38 which precipitated an ant allergy in him for 1 week, and that was 1 week of fever and sore throat for him. weird right?! and Cloud, pls finish collecting the $$ soon heh!

2. Sch reopening. got my FYP topic. dunno whether i shd be happy or sad. can i click with the staff at the BTI lab after the PBS/Tween incident (i did not blog abt this too)? met my sup, she kept emphasizing that she's here cos of admin purposes. i duno how i shd feel.

3. decided that i'll do Pharm Prac IV instead of Pharmacokinetics/Toxicology... i think i'll go into practice first after i graduate (more abt this later).. got overwhelmed by workload (pharm prac III especially)

4. ate at Waraku and bowled. Waraku was great! the pizza especially! and i ordered Seafood Croquette with meat sauce pasta. shared dessert with Erina. Tiramisu! realised that all the ice creams were the same, just that the toppings were different. But the surprising thing was there was cornflakes at the bottom (i quite like it). Overall, food was good, but very expensive hah! spent $27 (with a 10% using DBS/POSB card).

Bowling was okay. first game was thrashed by Z-x. But in the 2nd game, I won the rest except Z-x la! haha... i was quite happy :P hehe... cos it was the 2nd best game (in terms of score) in my life so far haha. the best one was in Genting with Jiemeiz. hehe...

5. I think i sort of decided on what to do in the future (from point number 3). I realised that I wasn't THAT keen on research. and research really require the ultra passion to drive through the late nights and upaid OTs. and I lack this amount of passion. I realise that I enjoyed my Jurong Polyclinic attachment more than my BTI one. maybe because it's shorter and company was better. but i like dispensing and talking to patients, and sometimes trying to speak in some dialects. haha! Now, I want to be like Dr Grant Sklar, to be able to work in the morning doing rounds with doctors in NUH, and then teaching in NUS in the afternoon. [but that also means, i need a PharmD, i.e. study for 2 or more years] I hope to be like that in the future!!!

and of course, i need music too! hehe

6. Cello internal assessment was over and the results were out. I thought i did better in the pieces than my scales/sightreading. but ALL OF THEM SUCK. haiz. just pass. 17/30... better buck up for the real exam! [do i have enough time?]
Actual exam:
Date: 6 Sep 2007 (Thur)
Time: 1605 hrs
Venue: Young Musician Society Auditorium
--> means i've to skip 2 lectures... ARGH! haha...
*prays hard*

7. i'm going to Cheer Chen concert!
currently on repeat mode: 嫉妒

爱上了你 爱上了你的一切
挥不去的是那个 没有我的世界
心中的一个结 紧紧的锁住我
微弱似风中不安感受
该如何面对你温柔眼神
当心中有了疑问
而我是不是你的唯一
而你是不是真的在乎我
请相信我 请相信我的心
就这样地坠入幸福的深渊
嫉妒你的快乐 它并不是因为我
真心退缩在黑暗角落
该如何倾诉你温柔声音
它并不只属于我
而你是不是真的在乎我
而我是不是你的永久

you can find it HERE

that's all folks! :)
