Blood Sucker

Did health screening tests for some people at a company today. It was too busy. Started at 8am and ended at 1pm. Anyway, the picture shows my blood in a tube. Got someone to draw out my blood and I kept it. So nice! Finally, a dream come true... Yes, I had always wanted a tube of blood for my own 'safe-keeping'.
Chatted with Kyreen today and she told me a scary truth: Married couples would tend to need about 4-6years to get used to one another and thus, during this 4-6years, they would be constantly bickering... GOSH! Sounds so familiar! Wonder if my marriage would be able to with-stand 4-6years of bickerings and quarrels...
Baku made his Transition spectacles lenses this evening for a very cheap price (Baku is has disallowed me to mention the price. Yes very secretive, right?) Yeah, it was made in Bedok area with some promotion going on. I can't have Transition lenses as my degree is too high for it. So sad!

Weekends

Having monday blues and still recovering from a weekends packed with fun activities. Why does the weekends have to end so soon? Why does the weekends consist of only 2days instead of 3? Why does time have to fly by so fast when you are enjoying yourself? *sigh*

Worked until around 2plus on Saturday and went home to nap for a while before heading out to Kaijia's BBQ birthday party at Bedok Reservoir. It wasn't as noisy and crowded as I thought it would be, which is good as I hate noise and crowd. The party was good as I had time to sit down and chat with people. Left the party at around 11pm.

On Sunday, was awoken at 9am by my silly Baku asking me some medical stuff. Then, I went back to sleep until around 11am. In the afternoon, I went to attend Baby Cranston's one month celebration at Tenah Merah Country Club with buffet. The air-con was kind of spoilt so the staff had to bring out the fan to 'cool' the atmosphere. Sat down with my colleagues and mingled with them. Quite fun! Nearing the end of the party, Auntie Pauline reminded us that it was manners to eat the red eggs and we had one each even though we were so full from the buffet food. I ate 2! Yes, for those who don't really know me, one of my favourite food is also hard-boiled egg... Haha, anyway, I was too pai-seh to eat more so I left the party craving for more hard-boiled eggs. Thus, the moment I reached home, I took out 4 eggs and made my hard-boiled eggs and ate it 1hr later. So yummy!!! So all in all, I ate 6 hard-boiled eggs yesterday. Madness! :)

Monday is here again... Sianz!!! Back to a tedious work week again... Double sianz!!!

Just 4 You...

You have hurt me deeply years back,
Now, she too broke your heart,
All seems very drama,
All I can say to you is that it is just the works of KARMA...

Scrub 4 Circumcision

Did my first OT scrub today for a 8 year old boy's circumcision with Dr Zainal. It was kind of gross to see all the blood spilling out after the foreskin of the penis was cut off. The child was of course given sedation and Ketamine. However, I was wonder if this was done without sedation, just cut of the foreskin... Shiok man! Hmm... next time if Baku makes me boiling mad, I shall try doing it to him. *evil grin* Yes, I am sadist when a person makes me extremely mad.

My colleague, Kavita, has announced that she is pregnant. She says that this time, it was accidental. So lucky. Some people try and try also not pregnant. Others also try IVF but unsuccessful. Yet she is pregnant so easily... So lucky. Envious. I doubt I would have that chance with my PCOS and another factor that I can't reveal on this blog. Keke...

Broke my 2 fingernails today while trying to open the drawers of the auto-clave room and OT. Did the repair too... Haiz, long fingers are so hard to maintain, but guess I would continue keeping them as I am more or less liking it already.

Day Of Madness, Shopping and Vomitting


I would on 'stand-by' tomorrow. If I am not 'activated' it would be a day off for me. So nice, finally a weekend off for me (that is if I managed to get the day off).
Anyway, got an sms from Geraldine this afternoon telling me that she would need to under-go another major operation at SGH again soon. However, this time her opeation would be needing 10 units of blood on stand-by. Yes, 10 units! Madness! The most I ever heard was 4-5 units... I think her doctor really needs to admit himself to IMH or need to take his MBBS exams again...
Today, I witnessed an evacuation of uterus and saw bits and pieces of the unborn dead fetus being sucked out into a suction bag with lots of blood. Shiok! Digustingly shiok!
This evening, Baku and I decided to visit Vivo City to shop. The place is big and crowded. But the stuff sold in the shops don't attract me only bought some tops at Giodano and jelly beans from Candy Empire. We had dinner at a lousy restaurant called "The White Dog Cafe" <-- I think that is the name. Anyway, after I ate the food, I puked it all out!!! Gross! All the mushroom soup, oreo fraccupino, fish and chips and some spinach into the toilet bowl.
Ended up going back to Hougang Mall and ate at Hans. The food was so much better and tastier compared to that cafe. Bought myself a 'zhu-zhu' massager. It is very cute. The face of the pig... Oh yeah, I am a pig too: eat like pig, sleep like pig, lazy like pig and also born in the year of the pig. Haha!!!

Days Updated

Updates:
1) The tailor finally came to take my measurement for my uniform!
2) I am a full-fledge scrub nurse for OGDs and Colonoscopies!
3) Been quite irritated with my new colleague, Sherry, who happens to my mum-in law's friend so I am just going to give her some leniency and tolerate her incompetence for another few weeks or until she really gets onto my nerve.
4) I dyed my hair red and I still feel it ain't red enough. Anyway, the hairstylist told me that if I want to dye my hair blue-black, I would need to bleach my hair. Bleaching my hair would also means spoiling my hair totally. Thus, I decided I love my hair too much to bleach it.
5) Broke my acrylic nails 3 times already but I am still going to keep it. Getting very used to the long nails especially the 'clicking' sound of it when I tap it on surfaces... LOLx!
6) Re-united with Wenshan, Simin and Kaijia last saturday... Chatted and did some catching up latest the gossip of my ex-boyfriends as well as people I once knew. So nice... Wenshan is getting married next year...
7) Heard from Ivy that Sharon is quite satisfied with my work performance... That is a good news for me and also reassures me a bit. However, still a bit worried. Guess I would be worried until the day I get my confirmation and pass my probation...
8) Baku does my read my blog... That is good, as he would also know how I feel as I don't tell him everything or should I say, I am better expressing myself by writing or typing or blogging.

THAT'S ALL FOLKS!

You R Loved (Don't Give Up)

Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
When you're heart's heavy I,
I will lift it for you
Don't give up
Because you want to be heard
If silence keeps you I,
I will break it for you
Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up
Because you are loved
Don't give up
It's just the hurt that you hide
When you're lost inside I,
I'll be there to find you
Don't give up
Because you want to burn bright
If darkness blinds you I,
I will shine to guide you
Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up
Because you are loved
You are loved
Aaaah
Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
Don't give up
Everyone needs to be heard
You are loved

Anyway, I think I am getting better at being a scrub nurse for OGDs... Anyone want to be my guinea pig and try my skills? *winks*
3 days more and I would be married for half a year already. The past 6mths was no honeymoon period, we still had our fair share of arguements and quarrels... But guess all couples go through this vicious cycle of quarreling and making up. I really miss the day we held our ROM as well as my bachlorette night with Anqi and Kyreen...

Hari Raya Gathering

Just came back from the Hari Raya gathering at Auntie Oyah's place. Have uploaded the pictures at my Multiply album. Do drop by, okie?
PS: Kyreen and Lili, you were missed by me at this gathering...
Thank God that 'old virgin' and Corina didn't attend it otherwise there wouldn't be so much laughter and fun there.

Kept Nails..

Yes, I made the decision to keep my nails for another 2 weeks more and this time I got them painted pearly blue... So next decision making would be on 18 Nov 2006!
Did scrub nurse today for 3 OGDs. Stressful and of course got scolded but yet I feel very pleased with myself and proud of myself for being able to do the scrub nurse. I survived 3 OGDs! Haha. Anyway, maybe I am being oversensitve these days, however, I feel that the atmosphere at work is very tense, especially when I am around. Wonder why... No more joking around with Sharon. No more being able to chat with Sharon as friends like few weeks back. :-(
(By the way, Sharon is my preceptor.)

Insecure

Today, I was very stoned at work due to lack of sleep last night.
Anyway, that is besides the point. The point is that today at work, my preceptor pointed out to me a few mistakes that I had made along way for the past few weeks, her attitude towards me these days were also pretty discouraging. The common mistakes I made was either over-charging or under-charging the patients. Another common mistakes made by me is the appointment system errors when I key in data. However, today, my preceptor told me a patient whom I had given IM injection few days ago had visited the clinic yesterday evening due to swollen injection site. This the first time I heard of such incident. All the while as a SN, this is the first time I had given IM injection and had such problem. Wonder what and where I had did wrong in this case.
My preceptor also told me 2 weeks ago that the tailor would be in last week to do the measurements for me. Then this week, she said the tailor would be doing it this week instead when my new colleague who would be joining us next monday comes to do the measurements also. However, my new colleague came to sign the letter of appointment yesterday but the tailor never came.
I just feel so insecure... I feel fearful that I wouldn't pass my probation... I fear that I am showing signs that I am not coping well in this new job. The truth is I am so far enjoying it a lot, in fact, I don't feel stressed working here. I fear the same thing that happened to me in RH would happen again... How?? *sad*

New Baby G


Bought myself a new watch yesterday. Been wanting a nice Baby G since the last time I owed one. My last Baby G, which was also a limited edition one was given away by my mum to another cousin who in the end lost it in the USA. That was when I was 15 yrs old. Since then, I told myself that I would buy a Baby G myself so that nobody could ever force me to give it away. Anyway, Baby G has also another model called the Miss G (G-ms) and this is it. Haha...

This blog song is dedicated to someone out there... Listen to the lyrics (although the song is not really complete but it is good enough to relay the message) and these are the words I want to say to you. To those who don't know who this 'special' person is.. happy figuring it out. LOL!
