Goodbye my almost

Work again tmr!!! Thank God for one day of rest. and how lovely it was spent with the girls e in e morning. I am soo thankful for a one day of rest! The loveliest thing on earth.

It was lovely on sat... I love our team. For once, her eyes were opened... took my chance to hold and stroke her.... sigh. When we're young, everything seems like the end... wait till u step into the hospital... watch the world go by.

My patient kicked me in e face but i dodged in time. Thanks to a trained fast reflex from muay thai.

Next week will be the start of a crazy period! Daily Report writing for 6 patients!
I must be super vigilant!

Pls not too many hourly paras!!!! Oh pls no!

CHIONG CHIONG CHIONG. One more week in TTSH! i can do this i can do this.

HORROR

A catastrophe happened yesterday.

World war 3 broke out! (so says gertrine)

I broke an 8 year record of not having lost a phone.

It happened last night.

When it occured, I was in shock. At first i thought it was a dream, a nightmare that I'd wake up from. My pulse rate, RR and BP became abnormally high. I was giddy from dismay and disbelief.

I feel like the stupidest idiot on planet Earth! How could i be so stupidly trusting of people... and left my bag in the nurses' room together with the handphone (because we weren't provided with lockers). I didn't think they'd steal a fellow colleagues valuable. I was naive and gullible. And extremely upset. I AM depressed beyond anything. My phone was my everything.

Not surprisingly, my parents were furious. I may be phoneless for the rest of my life because I am not allowed to get another phone. Cheers to living life phoneless. *claps*
Not.

In fact, they wanted to blow the issue up by complaining to the director of TTSH and make a police report to investigate on the nurses in my ward. It was really quite terrible. Because in the first place... it was MY RESPONSIBILITY to bring my valuables along with me when im working (but its a lil hard cos i have alot of stuff in my pocket).

Honestly, if they were to do that they'd tarnish the name of the hospital and perhaps disrupt the work of the nurses when they are already stressed enough.

I begged them the whole night to not do it but Dad was insistent. IT WAS SOOO TERRIBLE! I ought to be grateful to the hospital for providing me with the oppoturnity to learn and yet I had caused trouble for them. I felt sooo terrible. Plus it was my burden to bear, not the ward nurses.

Thankfully, I begged Mom to dissaude Dad... and it worked.

My life has crumbled since last night's very fateful incident.

I am an idiot i am an idiot. I am extremely amazed with my stupidity. I cannot forgive myself for what happened. I am depressed. Good bye.

Wednesday, May 13, 2009

if u haven't already known, I've been spending my mornings in TTSH

for the first time, we started work proper and it was really cool! i dont think i've met such friendly staff in the previous attachment.

I think im starting to enjoy work. Theres tons of interesting stuff to see and learn.

I'll needa get the hang of infection control though... i can see why the emphasis.

OK i needa rush off. Sleeping alone tonight cos sis has disappeared to china! why is everyone leaving :(

officially missing you


The adorable one sleeps alongside me. Isn't it a baby?

-------------------

Attachment will officially start tomorow. And im kinda scared. It also marks the start of an extremely hectic one month and a week journey... what with training for muay thai competition as well.

Good luck to me. I'll need that badly

EXAMS ARE OVER

My family members are out there in the dining room. They are carrying out an investigating of the person who might be responsible for the presence of a golden cockroach in the study room. Me thinks it was daddy who constantly eats his fruits in the room.... A breach of mom's house rules.

then again.. some chocos in the room might have ignited that.. although they were wrapped up.
And i am responsible for that. Uh-oh.

Mom's gonna blast at me soon.
----------------

Its over?... wait.. hold on.. u mean "IT"?? are.. are we talkin abt e same thing?? OMG.. Its over?! MY exam is over?! I've finally completed sem 2 alive?!

When it finally ended the day before yesterday on 6th MAY 2009,

I was elated that some of my friends were still going out, contrary to the assumption that my friends were gonna elope with their boyfriends to Planet Zeus. The attached ones disappeared but the single friends were gona have fun! I got to spend an interesting evening with jade, angie, adora, Mel, rad!

How wonderful.. i was finally out of my cage.. free as a seagull... without a worry about the pile of work back on my study table. They are a but a load of papers with scrawled words to me now.

My gorgeous meal savoured at Manhattan's fish market.




No the result of this is not from my lousy camera skills.
I purposely gave it an artistic touch. Please applaud me for havin such an aesthetic nature.


Knowin what an amazing cameraman i am... Jade decided to follow my footsteps by takin over my role.



--------------------

On May 8th 09 after basic PPE course













My stomach was cut out to be used as an object for learning


My poor leg. Check out my last toe which is tied to my feet by a white polyester string.


At chicagoes's!


In the bus!






BY THE WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
I bought the best dress in the world... which is light green in colour with gorgeous oriental prints!
Sounds mighty delicious?!?!?! I loveeee oriental prints.
And the best part is.. its only 15 dollars!
Damn why do i always get all e best deals heh
And the other amazing part about today is... SIS came home with the best invention in the world.... an ionic haircurler! That was originally 200 dollars but is now a 100. Sis is marvelling at her Vanessa Hudgens-like hair. E set includes a volumizer, and natural curler
And the other best part is...
i saw Zac efron on a big screen. he became at least 10 meters tall and a few meters wide. Giant Zac efron! An every girl's fantasy!
I cant believe how much i am in love with his gorgeous smile. Any guy would have easily turned gay from juz watching the show. Jun xiang u've missed out alot!!!
AND when is my paris dress arriving?! i cant wait to wear it but i am not looking forward to mom's nagging on splurging on another dress again. I feel guilty leh...
OK no more! no more new dresses for the next few months!
TMR!! yay spending saturday's morning with mom and muji for breakfast.
And clinicals have resumed. I'll be mighty busy next week onwards. Im not sure if i can cope... clinicals is v physically draining.. and trg at night after that will prolly kill me. Sigh.. i duno whether i shd take part in this comp this year. Lets juz see how it goes next week.
