finally.. i'm tired of shopping.

went out early in the morning! first stop, lucky plaza. went there to get my sister's and my aunt's birthday present. Lola for my sis, and Delicious for my aunt!


then we head on to Central at Clark Quay. damn it is quiet. maybe cus it's still early.


see, can hardly see anyone at the MRT station except for the 2 person right at the end.


went with ping ping of course!

but don't know why, totally got no mood to shop today. maybe cus of the atmosphere. very little people around. or maybe cus i'm just really exhausted lately. did not buy any clothes today. suprisingly. =p

oh well, gotta get back to work tmrw. back to hell!!!!!!

definition of nurse???

life has never been the same ever since i have been registered with the Singapore Nursing Board. (wa.. macam sangat serious). but yea. not even happy about earning the current basic right now. every shift has been like hell! I've been walkin up and down non stop. and have not even been eating right lately. been skipping all my meals. not that i don't want to eat! i want to! but i just could not find the time to eat. work has been really busy.

just got scolded from ward sister today. it's just a small thing. why can't she just tell me properly? why must it be scolding? I'm already trying extremely hard not to do any mistakes! but I'm only human. nothing is perfect. that's what everyone says. but that theory does not apply to my ward sister. at all. she wants everything to be perfect. and when it doesn't, there goes your day. one scolding, and it ruins my whole day.

even get scolding for something that's not even my mistake! just because a student spoke to me in mandarin, i get scolding for not telling the student to speak in English. even said want to report me to Ms R.G. what the hell man?? I've got so much to do, so little time. life really sucks badly here.

Definition of 'nurse' according to Dictionary.com "A person trained to care for the sick or disabled, especially one educated in the scientific basis of human response to health problems and trained to assist a physician."

well, my version is: "a nurse is someone who gets scolded for something that is done wrong to the patient, a nurse is someone who some patient treats as a maid, a nurse is someone who gets yelling from a doctor when something is not right, a nurse is the first person anyone will get to find fault".

well, that's just my life currently. hope everything goes well in future. everything is just beginning right now. i can still go with the flow.

one word : 'hectic'.

supposed to be my day off yesterday. unfortunately, the ward sister called me back to work whilst i was happily shopping for my groceries early in the morning. don't know why, but when i woke up yesterday morning, i've got a strong feeling that this will happen. already had my whole day planned up ahead!

reluctantly, i went home and get ready for work. i prayed extremely hard that everything will go smoothly during my shift. well, my prayers was unheard.
first of all, my ward sister assigned me to be in charged of 8 patients. being in charge sucks. terribly. once i took over, everything happened at once. doctors came to do rounds, my patient had problem with the urinary tube(which caused him to have distended abdomen and it is not comfortable at all), then gotta assist a doctor to remove drains and staples, an ICU admission, gotta serve antibiotics and other medication, etc.. i mean one person can only do so much. right?

i hardly drink or ate anything! don't even have time for the toilet!!!!!!!! wanted to break down on the spot and scream my lungs out. i really hope that the time would just stop right there. man... it's really hectic. and the worst part is the report-writing. i did not have time to write or update any of the doctor's orders. i had to stay back and finish up all my stuff. i stayed back till 11.45pm. i had to make sure i've done everything. thank god there's still bus. reached home at 12ooam sharp. i'm exhausted. all drained out.

yea, i know i've got to be prepared for all this. who asked me to choose nursing right?
but i'm human too.

been so long!

geez. when was the last time I've blogged? so many things happened during these 2 months! first of all my comp crashed which is why i haven't been able to blog. so obviously it's fixed now! gotta bring it back to Msia to get it fixed. cus it's gonna cost me a bomb to fix it here in spore!



well i was glad to be able to go back to msia for Christmas! spent one week at home! at least i gotta meet up with my lovely cousies! and hang out with my sis! followed her to kl to collect all her clothes for her online boutique.



and once that short one week off finishes, I'm back to the dreadful lifestyle in spore! well i can say it's hectic though. so much to do, so little time.



so, i went to The Float at Marina Bay for the countdown event. well i had fun! went with Tiffie, Loi and girlfriend. it's beautiful. the city view is fantastic. it's kinda like the stadium-seats. so we sat kinda far up though. cus the seats below was packed with people. so it started off with someone performing. i forgot who. =p

it's actually really bored to be sitting up there man! there is a section where u can stand right in front of the stage. and i told Tiffie, "i have to get down there man". it's just so bored up there! so before Tiffie and i head down to the mosh pit, we went to grab some beers and headed back up to where we sat. then we made our way all the way down to the mosh pit after gulping down our beers cus Tiffie was starting to get sleepy after takin the beer.



we asked those crews over there about whether we can enter the mosh pit. and this guy said it's full and therefore we can't enter. I'm like wut the hell! i came all the way down here and u said it's full! i mean come'on! geez! we were about to give up when the host of the night announced that the mosh pit will still be able to fit in 20 more peeps! woohoo! excited, i made my way in!! and I'm finally standing right in front of the stage! and that means a lot more closer to the stars! ^^' had tons of fun cheering and dancing! but then i realized, everyone in the mosh pit has those glowing sticks in their hands except for Tiffie and i. we had to get one too! there's this young Malay couple but they've got 6 glow sticks in their hands! so i asked whether they can kinda give us two. and they did! weeee! then performance lasted till midnight where there's beautiful fireworks! and after the fireworks, we went for dancing at this incredibly huge dance floor just behind the stage. wooo! there, loads of fun! thank god i wore my extremely comfortable heels!



went clubbing on Saturday night. went with Aretha and Parveen. phew! great night too! ^^

started off with drinks. thought of loosen up a little. drank 2 glasses of vodka. no effect on me at all!! was expecting to feel all woozy though. geez. disappointed! then we head off for the dance floor. man, now that's where all those disgusting guys come in. oh well, guys are guys after all. just wanted to go there and hoped to dance off the stress at work! had loads of fun too! thanks Aretha for being able to hang out with us!! love ya girl! =p



now, gotta sign off though. enough of all those wonderful nights! gotta head back to work tmrw morning!

unpleasant day~

was looking forward for the BCLS course this morning. oh, BCLS means Basic Cardiac Life Support in short. basically it's CPR. well, we've gotta be trained and tested and be given a cert to prove that I've successfully undertaken the training.

sat through the E-learning for half an hour. didn't even manage to finish up the E-learning. then we were asked to go to the skill lab so that we'll be able to do hands-on the mannequin. they demonstrate to us 4 modules. which will all be tested later in the afternoon. first module is the one man CPR, then infant CPR, followed by how to handle choking adults and infant. all were being demonstrated very quickly. i wasn't able to catch everything. after the demonstration by those instructors (which turned out to be extremely mean instructors!!) we were being separated into 4 groups. cus there were too many of us.

then we get to know that our instructor is Mr. X (let's not mention names). thought he's very nice at first. mana tau.. turned out to be a mean and strict instructor!! probably the meanest!! yeah, i know what they're teaching us today involves human lives and that we should not be fooling around. but we were sooo not fooling around! in fact we paid full attention to whatever it is that they taught!

Mr. X started teaching. and i can definitely say that he has got NO PATIENCE AT ALL!!!
he was like "why are you doing this???!!! do you think this is right??!! locate your landmark! hurry up!! why are you so slow??!! how do you expect to save a person's life by doing that?!!? why can't you understand??! put your finger here!! pump harder!! blow into the mannequin's mouth harder! i said harder!!! you're not doing what i asked you to!!, do you know your steps??!".

well, that's just half of it. there's loads more. really felt like crying there. didn't expect to get this kinda teaching. kept on rushing us to do it better. how can we possibly do anything well if you're rushing us??! felt like going crazy. and i will definitely remember this phrase of his, "go save a person's life to prove me wrong". sigh. excuse me sir. it's not like we don't believe you. it's just that we needed more time to practice.

we even have to sit for a test which consists of 30 multiple choice question and the practical test.
well, thank god i passed it all. thank god all of us passed it. the practical test wasn't exactly a pleasant one though. lots of scolding there as well. but i don't feel like talking bout it anymore. just ate ice cream to cool myself down. and now I'm blasting music into my head to get everything out!!! just hope i can sleep well tonight. tomorrow gotta do morning shift. sigh. what a day..

Dwayne Johnson is “The Tooth Fairy,” also known as Derek Thompson, a hard-charging minor league hockey player whose nickname comes from his habit of separating opposing players from their bicuspids.

At first, Derek “can’t handle the tooth” – bumbling and stumbling as he tries to furtively wing his way through strangers’ homes…doing what tooth fairies do. But as Derek slowly adapts to his new position, he begins to rediscover his own forgotten dreams.


another movie where the townfolks are infected with an unknown toxin and starts killing. A picture-perfect American town with happy, law-abiding citizens soon turns into a sickening asylum.
