An Ant nimbly running about in the sunshine in search of food came
across a Chrysalis that was very near its time of change. The
Chrysalis moved its tail, and thus attracted the attention of the Ant,
who then saw for the first time that it was alive. "Poor, pitiable
animal!" cried the Ant disdainfully. "What a sad fate is yours!
While I can run hither and thither, at my pleasure, and, if I wish,
ascend the tallest tree, you lie imprisoned here in your shell, with
power only to move a joint or two of your scaly tail." The Chrysalis
heard all this, but did not try to make any reply. A few days after,
when the Ant passed that way again, nothing but the shell remained.
Wondering what had become of its contents, he felt himself suddenly
shaded and fanned by the gorgeous wings of a beautiful Butterfly.
"Behold in me," said the Butterfly, "your much-pitied friend! Boast
now of your powers to run and climb as long as you can get me to
listen." So saying, the Butterfly rose in the air, and, borne along
and aloft on the summer breeze, was soon lost to the sight of the
Ant forever.

the bitter cold

The weather here is insanely erratic, one minute it's warm-ish, the next it's as cold as Satan's heart. Today is one of those extremely cold days. It's so cold that the only thing you feel like doing is snuggle under the duvet with the radiator on full blast. Alas, that would only happen in an ideal world. In the real world, however, which I sometimes call hell, the radiator is down and you're stuck at your desk 'conveniently' placed by the window, rushing to meet your deadlines.

Yes, we do like to talk about the weather here. This is a very random post, but at least it prevents the blog from dying. Dear anyone who's reading this, post something next week :p.

My contribution =P

Okay since I was the one who made the comment I guess I should contribute too...

Cambs has been... oddly less stressful than last year. 2nd year medicine is supposed to be the busiest, most stressful course here, but for some reason I'm finding it less of a hassle than last year. Hmm either it's because I'm used to the stuff now, or maybe I just don't care as much whether or not my supervisors like my essays haha...

Hmm nothing much else to add really... I'm staying over for christmas... hey UK ppl maybe you could visit me then if you're staying back too =)

The really sien thing right now is the fact that the sun is setting earlier and earlier. Lol you'd have thought I'd be used to it by this year, but every time I look out at like 4.30 pm and see that its 10pm-sort-of-dark I start getting grumpy haha...

In which case I should start reading up on patho before I run out of daylight... =P

poor abandoned blog.

no ryan, the blog is not dying. i dont care if im the only one writing! this blog will not die! *mission impossible theme song in the background*

so what has everyone been doing? hope u guys are doing great. im doing fine here, thanks for asking. *ok ok forgive the monologue*

yeah. so wats new here? nothing much except that im thinking of going to watch the demonstration in dataran merdeka this saturday. im not going to join of course. haha dun want to get myself caught now do i.. will sit in my car and watch.

what demonstration? its basically a 'perhimpunan' of all the opposition parties and charity bodies at dataran merdeka all the way to the istana to demand a clean and fair General Election.
by law we have every right to do so, but UMNO youths are idiots and the deputy head Khairy JAmaluddin is an even bigger idiot by demanding that every person attending the demonstration to be put in jail. i want to see how the jail can fit 10000 people. hahahahaha.

so till the next post guys. post something up will you.
