Ladies ladies ladies...
Where have everyone disappeared to?
=( Would you guys still read if we were to update our lives?
Here's my first update ever since I started at Sick Kids.

The people at work are super nice and so easy for me to get along with them. There are always problems with the bosses but guess what, I rarely deal with the boss head on so I guess I'm safe! Although I'm the youngest in the lab, the other people there are not much older than me. Most of them are grad students and since I've started college so late, these guys are only a couple of years older than me (age group ranges). I'm hoping to impress them enough that I can stay there permanently after I'm done school. At the same time I'm not sure if that's a wise idea because working at an academia environment, it won't make me rich enough to go and lease/finance a car right away. Mike and I are thinking about saving up money for a house but GTA has such high prices for a regular two-story detached house that only millionaires can afford, it makes me wonder if I should find another higher-paying job? Perks for working at an academia environment: 1) New researches = new tasks = non-repetitive = good brain exercises 2) For a good cause, because our work can make a difference to the whole society/world 3) Hell, it's Sick Kids! I'm bound to have a job long-term (right? =S) Perks for working at an industry: 1) Higher-pay. I think I might need help from Thi to help me make my money grow if I were to continue on with Sick Kids. Hah.

But yeah, other than that, I haven't been doing much. I don't really have time to have fun or whatever because I don't get off work until about 6 and once I'm done work, I just want to RELAX! I guess that's the first step in saving up money, no?

Well, there's my update on my boring life. What's up with everyone else? Seriously, I really would like to know! If I don't hear from you, that means you've done plastic surgery and got a boob job! Even if that's the case, I want to see it or maybe feel to see how different it is!! LOL

Almost half of 2009 has past and we're at a post count of 10...WOW!

I'm not busying doing much these days. I quit my job three weeks ago and I'm now a penniless bum. Finding the motivation to write a new resume so I can find a new job has turned into a full-time job. And I'm not very good at it. Hopefully I'll find a new job by 2010 or else my parents are going to kill me and throw my decaying corpse into Lake Ontario.

I really wish I had some exciting news to share with you girls, but nothing comes to mind. Oh yeah! Since I'm consuming water like a lunatic I've decided to use the last of my dwindling funds on a Brita. Now I must think of a tear jerking story and write it on a dinky cardboard sign so I can beg for change to buy the stupid filters every two months. LOL.

Why hello hello.
Howcome all you guys are M.I.A. right now?
Where's everyone?

Just wanted to give a quick update: I've officially landed a coop position!
I have been hired by Sick Kids at their research centre over at MaRS. I'm sure you guys know or went passed there before. This is going to be the ultimate breakthrough for me. I was up against 4 other people, (not sure if they were interviewing other schools as well) and I landed it! My hopes were diminishing as the week dragged on because they said they'll have a final decision by early this week and the wait for the past 2 days had been killer! Finally this morning my coop coordinator called and gave me good news. It was awesome! I was totally speechless and words were jumbled up and I was finding a hard time to talk. I'm just very relieved that I have landed the job. I thought my chances were minimal because I knew who I was going against and they all have degrees and such. I guess I made a very good impression and my previous office manager (at the dental office) gave very good references about me! =D I'm super psyched right now.

Official start date is on June 1st so I am free ANYTIME. Just give me a ring-a-ding girls! =D

Hello!!
Wow... haven't heard from many of you in months.
I agree with Shirley... HOW ARE YOU!?
I personally have done none of the things shirley mentioned.

So I guess I should post some story here for you to read, ooh and ahh.
Umm I'm going on a bus tour with some friends at the beginning of may to Atlantic City, it should be fun!

Other than that not too much is happening but life is definitely busy. :)

Wow. Where's everyone? Is the year 2009 super busy for everyone?
I hope everyone's well though. School, work, relationship, social and health wise.
For this past month, a lot of people are getting sick with a cough that lasts atleast 2-3 weeks. This happening to anyone? I was one of the victims. I'm going into my 3rd week now. So I hope this stubborn bug isn't bothering you guys!

So c'mon! Where's everyone? Update us on everything! You guys might've gotten a sex change or plastic surgery and we wouldn't even know about it. So let us know and post up some pictures of your new face!

P.S. I did neither.

So I see we're not trying very hard to keep this thing updated. Can't be helped I guess, everyone's busy with other things.

Anyways, I went to my first acupuncture session today. It was...kinda what I expected and kinda not. The discomfort was bearable but felt really weird, and when they started sending those electric pulses through the needles reminds me a little of Dr. Ho. My muscles were rigid during the whole thing so I couldn't really move. This is for my shoulder problem in case you haven't figured it out yet. It's finally been decided that I'm taking an indefinite hiatus from badminton. So sad. I just sat at home on Saturday cause I couldn't figure out what to do with myself. I'm so lost without badminton. Need to find something else to devote my life to now, and work is not the answer. Maybe I should start going to the gym to train up my arms muscles so that I can play badminton again? Wanna hook me up with a membership Thi? Hehehe.

Hope you ladies are doing well. And I'm mad that none of you responded to my email!!! Grr.
