During the short intersession break of 2nd to 3rd year of dental school, my parents and I went on L&L Bus Tour around US East Coast & Canada for 8 days and 7 nights. It’s not all inclusive ~ for the price of $1200, the three of us got a bus ride, hotel stay, […]

For the past 10 years, I’ve been amassing fansubbed anime. I don’t know why I started hoarding when I could have easily d/led, watched, then deleted. It’s not like I ever watch the same anime twice. Let’s see if this holds up because I’ve just freed up 10% of my waking time.

I’m a very forgetful man, and as such, I can’t remember life without dentistry anymore. Dentistry seems to integrate itself into every facet of my life, and it’s incredible just how useful it is! For example, I have new vocabularies to describe the location on an item to pinpoint exactly where I’m thinking […]

Ever since I’ve gained self-awareness, I’ve been in school. When I graduate from dental school at the ripe age of 30, I’d be working for the Air Force for another 4 years. After that, I’d still be working somewhere for the next 20+ yrs ~ and all for what? I supposed for […]

About 6 days ago, I discovered the ribeye steaks I bought a while ago when I went shopping with Ricky. For two pieces, the price was extraordinarily low - for I said to Ricky, “this is Super 88 - meat is cheaper here!” The package been frozen since and I haven’t touched it […]

It’s ****ing Gigabyte to blame for the 10+ hours lost at troubleshooting their broken product!
Started out with Vista not setting up properly ~ ie, taking forever. Then it became, “is it Vista’s fault or Lite-On’s fault or motherboard’s fault for the DVD drive not working?” After an entire night of trouble shooting by […]

Apparently, there are a lot of stupid people posting answers on the net, and I’m even dumber for believing them. I waited 30 minutes to the first window to come up during clean setup of Vista - this is not right ~ the problem lies with the LITE-ON 20X DVD±R DVD Model LH-20A1P that […]

I’ve been using the school assigned IBM T60 for the past year and half as output to my Samsung 42″ DLP. The problem with the IBM T60 lies in its Intel 945GM Express Chipset integrated graphics ~ it does not output to 1280×720 properly. After a lot of searching and reading, I found […]

I don’t recall my first encounter with the famed Iced Tea from Long Island ~ but I do remember every instance of me drinking too much of it. For those of you who don’t know, Iced Tea is made from a fine blend of gin, vodka, rum, tequila, triple sec, sweet & sour mix, […]

It’s the final weekend to the DMD 2 1st semester ~ and we’re going to spend it studying periodontium. How hard is it? Well, a quick survey tells us we have about 1000 power point slides to go through and memorize, a few addendum study material, book… etc. It’s funny though, how […]

They planned to move my canines forward to become my mandibular lateral incisors. They planned to create enough space between the canines and the premolars to insert implant on each side. They planned to open my bite up, to create more room. It all failed ~ I still only have 4 millimeters […]

Cause after 4 weeks of starting DMD 2, I sure don’t feel like I’m in dental school~!
After some 2.5 months of APEX rotation where all of us suctioned and catered to our assigned doctor’s every whim ~ we’re now back in school. Instead of just sitting in G-301, an extremely cramped room where the […]

I’ve long been fascinated with the land of the rising sun ~ from my early start in Japanese anime as hobby, to my fetish-like love for eel bowl - it’s the place I always wanted to visit and possibly live in with a cute Japanese girl (they can be very hot & sexy too). […]

On June 18th, I sent my TabletPC in to Toshiba for SystemGuard warranty repair. After waiting for about a month, I called and told them I need it back before school starts! It took another 2 weeks before they finished repair.
I have to say they did an excellent job at the repair by […]
