when was my last post again? oh damn! it's been almost half a year gone!
so, 2010 is gone. crazy year. been busy workin'. as usual. who doesn't when it comes to workin', right?
the month of December was probably the best month ever in 2010. i was really lookin' forward to it. lookin' forward to Christmas and New Year celebration!
first it was the Zoukout event. which was epic! met my childhood bestie, Shereen whom i have not met since i was ... geesh. i could not remember. maybe back when i was in junior high.
had tons of fun. didn't know i could dance all night! and the most embarrassing part was, i got drunk before it all even started! guess i was too excited at first. drank 4 cups all at once!
got all whoozy. just felt like crashing on the beach and sleep!! it felt so good! but i had to stay awake! had a really tough time standing still. thank god i had Shereen's friends around to support me. ^^ the whole event started at 10pm and ended at 9am the next day. i got sober only towards morning. now that's wut i call party ALL night.
when i got back, i was totally beat! slept through the afternoon. got up in the late evening with a terrible headache and neck ache!! must have been from all the dancing. refused to get out of bed. i even had to decline Shereen's invitation to yum cha that night. sorry babe. i should have went.
well next up was June's visit! brought her to Universal Studios! had to pre-book the tickets. sold out kao kao. we had loads of fun too! macam 2 perempuan giler! laughin all the way.
shared some gossips along the way as well. and we even hit the clubs! which was awesome.
then the next day we made our way to Singapore Zoo. had fun takin pictures mostly. spent the whole afternoon there and had to head back home to rest! totally beat! rested at home, too lazy to go out for dinner. so we ordered Mcdelivery! it's always the best. ^^
after munching on our burgers, we headed out with our leftover french fries and our drinks to Orchard Road. June wanted to see the Christmas decorations at night. it's beautiful. after takin a few shots of the night view, we sat down and munch on our fries and started chatting! till late at night! we didn't realize the time though. it was past midnight! and shoot! there won't be buses operating at night! we had to hail a cab home which was close to impossible because there can hardly be any available cabs at Orchard Road. anyways, we were able to get a cab after waitin for almost half an hour i guess? couldn't recall. headed home, and hit the sack! and June left the next day. headed back to Msia. leavin' me all alone... haha! nah, just kiddin' kiddo!
then my lovely siblings came for a visit. together with Lloyd. went to Universal Studios, AGAIN. must have been the 5th time there. had tons of fun! this time we went on the Merry-Go-Round! been sooo many years since we had our last one! after a whole afternoon spent at USS, we met up with Lloyd's brother, Justin and his mom and went for a yummylicious seafood dinner at the seaside! after the dinner, we headed back to the hotel, rested for a while and off we go again. to the Orchard Road for Christmas countdown! crazily packed with people! we were tryin' to avoid the massive jam of course. so we made the best out of anything!
and they went for shopping the next day of course. they left the next day; after another day of total craziness!
Dhira and Omar came on over for New Year's celebration. had a blast with them as well. took them to Sentosa and Singapore Zoo. (AGAIN for me) ^^
went for countdown together at Clark Quay. total craziness again.
guess i won't know what tired is when there are tons of fun around.
all in a nutshell, i had a blast this month. best December yet. more to come definitely. pictures are all in my FB. check it out if ya have time!

the most hardest thing to get is not money, it's time.
i am sooooo grateful that i have been given 9 days to go back Malaysia and be with my family~
i was like the happiest kid then! miss my family badly. made me think why on earth did i choose to work in Singapore back then? sigh. oh well! this post is gonna be a happy one!
one more thing that i look forward to when i get back to Malaysia is the FOOD!!!! i even wrote down a list of food that i must eat before i leave! so here's the list! (the original one sudah kena conteng from which food i've eaten and which shop sudah close down!)
1. Green Leaf -a small cozy restaurant that serves my favorite American breakfast set and fluffy french toast!!!
2. Hakka Noodle- okay, this was a major disappointment. this shop closed down. sigh..
3. Yong Tau Fu! + Chee Cheong Fun. another yummy breakfast!~
4. Pan Bakery-this one closed down as well. =( no more yummy pancakes with maple syrup and milo susu anymore!!!
5. Mee Hoon Kueh!!
6. Hor Fun- even though i did not get to eat the one i wanted, dad brought me to try another hor fun from another shop. it's yummmmeee too!!
7. Food from Pasar Malam! -this one pun tak makan, because tak jadi go night market. been raining every evening.
8. Bak Kut Teh!!!-this is a must have!!!
the following 3 is written by my dad!
9. PJ old town nasi lemak
10. Wan Tan Mee
11. Popeye's Chicken!
you must be thinking that i'm one hell of a greedy girl eh? well i am!!!

went for seafood in Pantai Seafood with my grandma!
and we went hiking in frim. wow. i loved it. especially with my family!!
and i spent most of the rainy afternoons at my porch with my naughty doggy. i am sooo gonna miss all these wonderful time i spent with my family. when will the next time be?

best working day so far.
started my day by seeing all my patients. made sure they are all cleaned up, had their breakfast, taken their medications and sitting up comfortably on their beds awaiting their doctors to visit them. there were a couple of discharges on my side. glad they could all go home. who would like to stay in a hospital anyway? when i took over, there were 8 patients. then 4 of them were being discharged. so I'm left with 4 patients!
there was this really adorable patient. like a grandfather to me. an Australian man. joyful. happy go lucky. and always smiling. well i was helping him with his breakfast, and when i look out the window, it's raining. i love it when it rains. the scenery right there was perfect! the trees and the rain. i don't know, they just go well together. ^^ how i wish i could open up the window and let in some cool breeze. at least that would make my patient feel really good. but unfortunately, the windows are all locked in case there are some patient who decided to umm.. you know.. haha!
oh well, i really did enjoy feeding him. we talked and joke around. plus the weather has been really great.
and another great thing was, the situation of the ward is peaceful i can say. we can joke around and laugh softly. we were able to communicate with each other. everyone was helpful. we had our jokes and laughter. this is the kind of environment i would love to work in. because most of the time, we are all minding our own business, working like a robot, everyone hardly talk to each other unless it's regarding the patient and each and everyone are kinda stressed up with work. everyone gets easily agitated. then there are many black faces around. the whole environment feels tensed don't you feel? i know i won't come across a day like today very frequently. but i did enjoy working today. i actually felt happy working here for the first time.

it's ruined. all ruined.
just when i thought everything is going really great, things start to take a new turn.
so this is it. planned to go Butter Factory on the 31st of March. well, what for? u may ask. well, thought i could have a little fun with my friends to celebrate my birthday. was about to make reservations for a table. then, my housemate came back with next week's work schedule.
shoot. when i saw the roster. my eyes were filled with tears!!! (exaggerating? well, it's something big for me though). felt like screaming my whole lungs out. my ward manager put me on night duty on the 31st. what a way to celebrate my birthday. what.a.way.
do i not deserve some fun after all this hard work?? i did request for a morning shift on my birthday. but she ignored it!! i mean it's fine that she ignored it, but how could she do such thing to me twice?? this is the second time that I've requested! and this is what i get?? why can't she just grant me my request??? she never grants ANY of my request. NEVER.
the same thing happened the first time i requested. the first time i requested for morning shift too. I've bought tickets for a play in the theater. and guess what??? she ignored my request and put me on night duty instead. i pleaded to change the work schedule. practically pleaded, for goodness sake. how am i supposed to go to the theater when i am on night duty?? the play starts at 8pm. she refuses to change my duty schedule. REFUSE! so i ended up not going to the play. which i really really wanted to. what the heck is her problem?? it's not like i did not help out when there is shortage of staff. i even did double shift several times just because my colleague took M.C. i could have said no. but i did not. cus she won't be able to find a staff to cover up in such short time.
i know i am getting emotional here. i couldn't help it. well, it's just a stupid birthday. i shouldn't make such a big fuss out of it. just another normal day to go by. i can do that. well at least i think i can.

lovely, lovely day~
woke up at 1pm today and it is still raining!! heart the weather totally! woke up smiling. something that i haven't been doing for ages! just loves it when it rains.
been really exhausted these few days. imagine this. was on afternoon duty one day. then the next day i was on double shift, and the following day, i was on morning duty. i didn't even have the time to rest. and thank god, today is my off day. and the weather was lovely. feels so good!!
went out with my friend to the supermarket to get some groceries while it was still raining. so what happened was that while we were looking for food (i was famished!), my friend accidentally stepped on my slippers and it snapped! damn.. oh well, lost my mood for food, we just went to the supermarket, got all the stuff we needed and left. my hand still hurts from all the heavy stuff that we bought. still can't believe how both of us managed to carry all of it. thank god there's taxi to take us home!
well, we ordered pizza for dinner!! yummmeeee!! ordered my all time favorite. the BBQ chicken supreme. the chicken is just soooooo tender. yum yum! plus the cheese and the juiciest pineapple pieces! don't remember when was the last time i had pizza. think i had it in m'sia with family. missing them AND the food terribly. ^^'
oh, the main part is the ordering part. so i called up pizza hut delivery, and was talking to this operator. she's really funny. can u imagine placing an order over the phone for 20 minutes???
she asked my number for 5 times! and my name for 3 times. i was being really patient with her though. she kept apologizing for havin me to wait for so long. and in the end she told me, "please bear with me mam, I'm new here." i was like, yeah, sure. no problem. just make sure you get the right order." i really want my BBQ chicken supreme pizza. i can be really stubborn sometimes. ^^'
so yeah, after the deliciously yummy pizza, i had a terrible craving for glutinous rice ball! and so i made them! Hershey-shaped tang yuan! that's another one of my all time favorite though.
wow, you can say that i ate a lot. but it only happens once in a while. usually i don't really eat that much in one day though. not that i don't want to. i just didn't get to eat due to my workin hours. oh well, in a nutshell, i had a great day today!! ^^
how's work nowadays? it's been goin really good for the past few days. i wake up everyday, telling myself that it is gonna be a good day today. everything will be fine. and so it did! i hope it lasts. please do. i'm prayin hard for peace at work everyday!! (usually people pray for world peace). ^^
oh yeah! i've just watched this movie called 'love actually'. yeah, i'm a little bit outdated. it's a 2003 movie. it's really really good. well, the tag line that got me all crazy over this movie was "love is all around" and it's all about love.. actually". lovely movie. made my heart all cozy and warmed up. it made me laugh, it made me smile, it made me cry and the coolest part is it really made me felt like there is love everywhere. the soundtrack was just lovely. and the most beautiful part of the movie is that it is filmed in a Christmas season where it gets all snowy, and where everyone gets together. i do not know about others, but i love this movie.

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.
