meet the third wife

classes ended 3 hours earlier today. it was flooding in the streets due to the hard rains. i got to sleep for 2 hours and bum around a bit. yay for me. boo for the brain.

at lunch today aileen, tin ko and karen sat with us. as i went to pay our radiology photocopies, marja was screaming her silly head off. she was calling my name. i sensed it was something sjoberg. truly it was. tin ko has a crush on him. they were laughing and telling her she's the third wife.

i didn't get angry at the news, but as i trodded on the floody, wet streets on my way home, it got me thinking. tin is waaay better than i am. she's a member of the terps, a lot sexier, perhaps a lot more confident than me. if we were to stand in front of him and make him choose between the two of us, he'll choose her over me without batting an eyelash. in effect, she's mistress material. which leaves me to be a poor spectator content with sights of him walking down the halls of med bldg and the hospital, with occasional glimpses of his teaching mode, and a very few times of running across him by the faculty lounge.

i saw him this morning, when i peeked through the SGD rooms. he was seated quite slouchily on the chair wearing his boyish smile. looking through the glass door, it hit me that he looked old. he looked much much better during our time with him, with the really short hair and the humming and singing while walking. now, although the cuteness is still there, he comes across to me now as somewhat lost and shabby. but then again, seeing him was a boost. he got me to recite in class and get a 9/10 in the quiz.

i wish tin ko isn't as crazy in love with him as i do...

if i had just followed dra. dee's advise of seeing him as my endo, life would be much, much better now. i solely blame vanessa for introducing dra. asis's name. if only i could turn back time...

i think i should start losing weight now. i still have 7 months before medicine rotation... rush rush rush.

but first things first. i should focus on med 2 first, and all my other subjects.

so buh-bye blogger. till the next sjoberg moment.
