You've pissed me off REAL BAD this time!

I've had enough of people calling/sms-ing me to tell me symptoms of some illness that their friend/relative has and asking me to diagnose the cause for all the signs and symptoms! I don't mind you calling me up and asking for help, but if you're out to question my knowledge, credibility and exposure to healthcare, PLEASE GO TO HELL RIGHT NOW!


You DO NOT call me up and ask me to diagnose illnesses!

-I'm only a Nursing Student. Read: S-T-U-D-E-N-T. If I had the ability to tell you what's wrong with your loved one, do you think I'd still be in NYP? Eh, if I blurt out the diagnosis for your friend without having to refer to any books, I CAN ENROLL IN HARVARD UNIVERSITY ALREADY LEH! And for God's sake, which part of N-U-R-S-E, don't you understand?! Nurses DO NOT decide what illness/disease a patient is suffering from! It's the doctors who do that! The last time I checked my Student Account in school, I'm taking a Diploma in NURSING! I am not gonna be a doctor anytime soon!


Huh? You Year 3 already leh... you dunno what illness is that?

-Fuck you! Year 3, so? Promoted to Year 3 only means I have to know the pathophysiology of all the diseases that ever striked mankind?! WHO TELL YOU ONE?! As you already said, I am ONLY a Year 3 student. STUDENT!!! So I am still very much inexperienced and I've got lots more to learn in this field! Yes, I've been through quite a few attachments now, but how long do these postings last? A few weeks? And how much do you expect me to learn within this 3 weeks?! Idiot. You so clever, you tell me what sickness your friend have lor! Call me for what?! Nabeh... Bring your friend go consult GP lah!


Confirm or not? Appendicitis is like that one meh?

-Of course NOT confirm lah, airhead! I specially flipped through my biology book to find the illness with the same symptoms that you voiced out. You know, the least you could do is thank me cause I DON'T appreciate you questioning me! For crying out loud, the first thing that comes to EVERYBODY'S mind when someone experiences pain at the right lower quardrant of the abdomen is, APPENDICITIS! It will only be ruled out if doctors perform tests on the patient! So you want ACCURATE diagnosis, right?! Go hospital lor... go find the clever clever doctor... call the stupid stupid nurse (unregistered one somemore) will only be a waste of time!


Eh, Seriously, what you learn in school? You like dunno anything one leh!

-Yah! We Nursing Students go to school and waste time! Lecturers only teach us how to clean backside! HAPPY?! Motherfucking ingrate!



I'm warning ALL OF YOU to STOP dialling my number when you need to ask about what sickness you/someone else is suffering from! You know why? Because I'll simply tell you straight through the phone that the person in topic has BIRD-FLU and is gonna die in 30 days! So thinking of calling me? You had bloody think again!

With this entry, I'm telling you ignorant buggers that nurses ARE NOT doctors! Our jobs are entirely different (why can't you all just understand?!). You, asking me to tell you what your friend is suffering from, it's like asking a doctor to change diapers for someone. IGNORANT IGNORANT IGNORANT! I can so laugh at you because you've proved to me that you're the biggest loser this world has to offer. WAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Oh, and if being a Year 3 student is such a BIG DEAL (must know EVERYTHING wor!), why some people graduate already, work a few years then come back to take Advance Diploma/Degree/Masters huh?! Ever thought about that?! There is NO END to studying about this line. So even if you were to call a Staff Nurse and give her a list of symptoms, she might not necessarily know the illness.

Not happy about this entry? Beginning to look down on nurses for not knowing how to diagnose diseases? Why don't you come and prove to me that you can do better us? Don't say I didn't inform you beforehand; nurses are the world's best MULTI-TASKERS. I'll be waiting patiently for your enrolment into NYP/NP ;) Until then, you're NOTHING but an ignorant and naive kid with no specialities.


To my sisters/brothers in Nursing, such people will NEVER comprehend our role in healthcare. So basically, there's no point explaining to them the stuff that we study in school. At the end of the day, we know our work and our importance in the hospitals. That's all that matters. We don't frickin' bother about the impression that numbskulls have about us. If they think that we're inferior to doctors, so be it! They're embarrassing themselves for having such thoughts. I wonder, have they ever thought that nurses are the backbone of healthcare? Hmm... oh, right! They're ignorant.

Prediction ruled accurate!! (/edited)

Duckie, Dorie and I were discussing if TONG2 would join us for our NAPFA training on Monday and I told the both of them that TONG2's reply would be somewhere along the line of...

"huh?! kau giler?! JANGAN LAH! mind u, we start at 8am the next day ok!!!"

Duckie sms-ed her and her reply was...



"kau nak mampos? tmr skool start at 8am!!"

Am I psychic or what? ;)


If you've been reading my blog regularly, you would know that I'm a HUGE fan of The Contender Asia. I once blogged about how Yodsenklai would win The Contender belt and how Zach would get a rematch against Zidov (the one who made Maia Lee pregnant!).

True enough! Yoddy beat JWP to the title and Zach KO-ed Zidov!!!


Don't come to me asking for 4-D or Toto numbers anytime soon ok? I'm NOT into gambling and neither should any of you be! =)

This week!

Before I start blogging about the few shocking discoveries I made this week, I just gotta rant about my newly-taken photo for my passport! Rahhh!! The lady was friendly. However, she made me sit on a stool that was placed in front of the aircon! So when she snapped my picture, my hair was flowing to my right side -_-" This is supposed to be my passport photo hor... not modelling port-folio! And she was about to take a second shot (so got variety to choose from mah) when her camera's battery went FLAT! So I had no other option but to purchase that horrendous photo with my tresses flying in mid-air. Great.

Ok, I'm done ranting.

So as I was saying, this week has been... kinda freaky, if you ask me. Suddenly, my friends are related to my other friends (from another clique) or relatives in one way or another. It's beginning to get kinda suffocating man... HAHAHAHAHA!!!

I went for Judo Orientation for the Freshmen on Wednesday and there was this girl wearing a BPS Judo gi. I exchanged a few words with her and she introduced herself to me. At first I didn't really think much about who she was until she asked me if I was from EVSS and if I knew who's Jeneveieve.

Then I stared at her and my expression went BLANK!

Jen did mention about her once or twice when we attended Judo Nationals but NEVER DID I THINK I'D BUMP INTO HER IN NYP!!

Err... that's NOT a bad thing though =) Another plus point is that this lady here is also in Year 3 Nursing!! ANOTHER MISSY TO HANG OUT WITH! Hahahaha! But our tutorial groups are kinda far apart lah, eh? So it'll be hard to cross paths when we're on campus (excluding Judo trainings).














HI, EUNICEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After the freshies made their departures, I had a conversation with her and she mentioned that before she came back for Judo trainings, she was involved with Ballroom Dancing.

BALLROOM.

DANCING.

Anyone in NYP Ballroom Dancing would DEFINATELY know my COUSIN. Yuppity yup, the very same cousin who's from Foreign Bodies and asked me to audition for the squad during my first year. In case you guys can't recall, his name is Brian (though I've been referring to him by his middle name my whole life).

Woah! Met someone new and it turns out that this person knows both my PARTNER-IN-CRIME from Secondary School and my LONG-TIME-NO-SEE cousin!!!

Jen, this gives you yet another reason to get your cute butt back in SG! You, Eunice and I have so got to train with each other one of these days. Hmm... maybe do a little shopping as well? I'm in desperate need for smaller-sized jeans (I LOST WEIGHT AGAIN!) and more tops! And maybe a couple more denim skirts cos I'm sick of the ones I currently own. Hahahaha!!



I did touch on how Raiden and I bumped into Azrin at Club Crawl 2008, didn't I? Well, when Azrin left, Raiden said to me, "Eh, he's quite familiar leh... like got see him before somewhere... I cannot remember..."

Obviously I dismissed his comment. Kwahahahaha! C'mon, there are 4 million people in Singapore. What is the probability of Raiden and Azrin meeting each other before? 2 out of 4,000,000?!?! So duh, I told Raiden, "See him before? Yeah, right!".

A few days later, I bumped into Azrin in school and we were walking to Yio Chu Kang Station when he said, "Eh, your boyfriend ah... he looks very familiar, you know! I don't know where I've seen him before..." (Apparently by that time, I've forgotten about Raiden telling me that he found Azrin closely acquainted to someone he knew) so my reply to him was, "You've seen him before? You've been to Night Safari, is it? Aiyah, he works there lah!"



*TRA-LA-LA*



Yesterday, both Raiden and Azrin met each other outside the Theatre of the Arts and Raiden's head sorta lighted up a little bit.

Azrin is the brother of Raiden's childhood buddy.





-_-"


Talk to me about the world being small, OMG!

You're right, it's getting smaller by the moment.

One of the Nursing Managers in our school is my Aunt's childhood friend; I'm not mentioning who! (and nope, I haven't spoken to her!)

Ivan, my Judo senior, used to be tuition mates with one of my course-mates.

Catherine (meow!) was classmates with Mindy, my ex-colleague from Billy Bombers!

Phoebe's boyfriend is Weiru's elder brother. Weiru is actually my friend from the Church I used to attend.

Clara once brought this guy named Kevin along to meet me at Compasspoint and he's Kevin Ban! The scrawny fellow I knew back in 2000 from Junior Church!


Erm, I can't think of anymore right now. These are the events that made me go balistic, which is why i remember it all so clearly. LOL! Dang, so who are the people that know my parents?! Gotta find out ASAP so I wouldn't attempt any funny stunts in front of them...sekali they spill the beans to my folks and I'm done for!

p/s: Jen, I never influence anyone to watch soccer lor. C was drawn to the game by Michael Ballack! So, when is your turn to appreciate watching 22 men chasing one ball around the field??

A simple life is a Beautiful life

Today's Judo session was probably what kept me grounded and tame. Yes, letting off steam by throwing my seniors just worked wonders. Maybe LiHan was just being lenient and fell on his own when I attempted Harai-Goshi on him... but that doesn't matter. What matters now is that my eyes are peeled to the actions of people whom I thought I could trust but turn out to be ~!@#$%^&*.

Oh, and THANKS! Sometimes I wonder why the fuck do you even care! You're so fucking fake!

Tuesday, April 22, 2008

You tell me lah!

For fuck's sake, should I or should I not smile at people when I'm out?!

If I don't smile, I look "damn fierce" and "scary". Then people start calling me arrogant and obnoxious. If I smile at them, they snub me and I'm being left as a sucker. Blardy hell. FINE! From now on, I don't know you and vice versa. It makes life so much easier.

Basket.

And yes, excuse me while I gag like a bulimic bitch!

Club Crawl 2008!!!

Yes, the time of the year when every CCA group tries it's best to recruit an army of Freshmen.


Join us and experience satisfaction like never before!! Sign up for Orientation @ Booth no.9!






As you can see, I was so overjoyed that I could meet the Pimple Cream lady AFTER SO LONG!! That woman just looked past me when I approached her lor... say she couldn't recognise me (WHATEVER!!). When I handed my phone to Pete to take a picture for us, IT WAS ON VIDEO MODE!! But sadly, Blogger encountered some problems while I was uploading it so... you guys can't view it. =( Oxy, damn sad right?

Met a couple of other people whom I haven't met in the longest time! Regretted not taking photos with them lah... but I was too busy distributing flyers, so I kinda forgot that my phone could be used as a camera -_-"



Bumped into:

Adil

who was helping out at the Floorball booth. Dang, that dude actually fractured his arm while cycling at Pulau Ubin


*stoned*

Can't imagine how he managed to do that. When I asked him to accompany me to walk around the Sports Complex to give out flyers, his excuse of not wanting to help was,

"Eh, my hand like that (with a cast)... later people think that I got injured while doing Judo then they don't want to join, how?"

-_-"



Rrrrriiiigggghhhhhhhhtttt....!!!!!!!!!


Azrin

yeah, the EN whom I worked with at Ward58 last January. If I'm not wrong, Tunggal was with him as well... was it Tunggal? Couldn't catch a clear glimpse cos he was walking so quickly!! Bugger Azrin commented that I "slim down alot sia" and that I "look more lady-like" cos "last time look like a boy during attachment seh..." And with that, he threatened to show my (fugly) picture to Raiden. IRRITATING!!

Well, he remembers Dorie and I (though he couldn't quite get my name right!) but can't recall Andy. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!! He was like, "Andy? Who seh, Andy?"

Now we all know.. he only remembers the girls whom he's worked with. Tsktsktsk!

******

Ok, more pictures of the Judokas performing coming up once Raiden gets his camera back from Ben Christ (WAKAKAKAKAKAKA!!!). Tonnes of sparring and breakfalling shots!!! Stay tuned ok!!!

I don't know...

Every time I see you,
that feeling comes back all over again.
Maybe you'll never know.
Maybe I'll never tell.


CONFIRMED; BANGKOK IN JUNE!

Hospitals in SG say:

"NYP students never ask any questions when they're out on Clinicals. NP students ask ALOT of questions..."





BUT








"NYP students always do what they're being told to. NP students don't!"

-don't come spam me please! it was feedback from hospitals!!-

Pictures taken at Ward 44B


note: my phone's camera isn't fantastic, so tonnes of editing was done to make us all look pretty! =P

Friday, April 11, 2008

Huh?! WHAT!!

For the first time among all my other attachments, my "Clinical Instructor Feedback" portion of my learning guide was left BLANK!! What the gwak!!

Truth AND dare!

Maybe one day, WE (nurses & PCAs) should go on a strike since we're never good enough for you. Maybe then, you'll realise how important a role we play in the healthcare line. We form the backbone of healthcare and yet we get screwed most of the time due to patients' relatives who have expectations that are so damned unrealistic. If you're oh-so-capable, why don't you fucking look after the patient yourself? Yeah; wipe in between his butt-crack, collect his urine, clean his wound, take his H/C, administer his medications, bathe/sponge him in the morning, write his report, send his blood for tests, send his stool for investigations, update relevant forms, clear up his puke, change his bedsheet when his diapers leak, serve his diet, feed him, chart his I/O, schedule his IV therapy, attend to him when he presses the call-bell, call doctors/PTs/OTs/podiatrists/dieticians/other therapists to get updates on his condition, perform pre/post-op care, do an ECG for him every 8 hours, monitor his telemetry results, take his vital signs when necessary, give him his injections, arrange for his 2D-echo appointments, refer him to different hospital departments (and many more which I'm lazy to type out). DO THIS ALL BY YOURSELF and repeat every single procedure with 23 other patients.

Are you up for it? Cause my challenge to you is on ;D

Dreaming of you - Selena

Corazon, no puedo dejar de pensar en ti. Como te necesito. Mi amor, como t'extrano. (Sweetheart, I can't stop thinking about you. How I need you. My love, how I miss you)

I hate working with you!!

Stupid maggot! I can't believe how you're so small-sized but yet the amount of trouble you've caused us is so HUGE! Bitch about us on your loser blog, accuse us of things which we didn't do... You want to badmouth us right? I ALSO CAN!

• Where the fuck are you half the time when we need your help?
• Why don't you ever answer YOUR patient's call-bell?
• Why are parameters for your room ALWAYS not done on time?
• How dare you blame me when you charted the wrong patient's vital signs on the wrong chart?!
• During shift, who are you always FOLLOWING & FLIRTING with?
• How come whenever there are ADLs to be assisted, you'll be pestering the SNs to let you do something else?
• When on earth did we ever bully you during shift?!
• Why are you so afraid of changing diapers?!!!

Eh, shorty! Change diapers also scared?! Then be nurse for what?! Sign bond with hospital for what?! You think working in a ward is the same as being on the runway huh?! Stand there and let people oogle at you, your flat chest and your oversized uniform?! SORRY LOR! This is Diploma in Nursing! In other words, your job is to clean the patients' asses, clear their vomitus if they throw up, sponge them in the morning if they're bedridden and the list of many more "unglam" routines continues!

Today, someone with diarrhoea soiled her pampers. You asked Geribean for help (I assume it's because you're too small to turn the patient over to wipe her buttock), but after the curtains were drawn, you had no intention to clean the patient up at all! You just took the packet of wipes and passed it to Gerry, expenting Gerry to do it all for you!

But thank goodness Gerry ain't dumb enough to fall for it... She made you put on your gloves to wipe the patient up as well. Moreover it was YOU whom the physiotherapist looked for when she noticed that the patient had just dirtied her diapers... and since you claim that our attitudes towards you isn't pleasant, I don't see why Gerry should do the wiping for you.

The best part is, after putting on a new pair of diapers for the patient and Gerry was busy clearing the used wipes, I came in to help you put the pants on for the patient. AND WHAT DID YOU DO?! You frickin' touched the patient's new pants and my hands WITHOUT REMOVING YOUR GLOVES!!! The very pair you wiped her anus with!!!!

When I yelled, "Oi! You wear the gloves still touch my hands!!!", she told me, "No! It's clean one!"

Cheebye.

Even though it appears to be clean, we ALL know that it's NOT! This isn't your first attachment and you're gonna be in your final year next week! Don't sia-suay our batch can?! Brainless. If your gloves are so "clean" why don't you bloody leave it on for the rest of the remaining hours?!

Whole day only know how to flirt around... I think for your PRCP, the school had better send you to a Gynae ward! So you'll actually WORK instead of stalking male nurses. Seriously, I wonder how you're gonna pull through 3 months of attachment when you can't even handle 3 weeks. I pray wih all my might that I won't be assigned to the same ward as you for our final posting. And after graduation, may we NEVER cross paths ever again.

You need tall-pills.

My Godsis went to Suzhou!!!

Now I got one less person to go crying into the arms to. My dearest Godsis of 7 years boarded her plane t Suzhou early this morning while I was removing diet trays and preparing requisites for NGT insertion with Geribean. Damn suay lah, couldn't send her off because I was on morning shift.. She would've landed by now, most prolly unpacking her stuff in her dorm/hostel.

As much as I hate to let her go, living with your friends in a hostel is one experience you'll never wanna miss out on! I so miss the time when I bunked in with Nura at Chiangmai University. We unpacked together, arranged our writing material and toiletries together, washed the toilet floor together (long story) and without fail, we'd talk EVERY NIGHT before we drifted off to sleep. Those were the days man...

Dearest Shirleen/Shirl/Leen, good luck with your overseas attachment ok? Learn as much as you possibly can and do well in your assignments. But whatever it is, DON'T speak to me with a Chinese accent when you get back here can? I've already lost my touch in my Mother Tongue. Hahahaha! Sad, but true!


Currently, Syrup and Waffles seem to be adapting well in Melbourne. HAHAHAHAHA!! Although they're left kinda speechless regarding the raging hormones of the ang-moh students. One of them bumped into a NAKED DUDE while on her way to shower!! LOL! Now isn't that ever so cool? Man, when's it gonna be MY turn?! Oh, and she heard tonnes of moaning in her unit mate's room!

WHAT THE BLEAH!!!

Couldn't help laughing myself silly when I read her post on her accidental discovery. Hehehe! Omg, you girls better enjoy whatever time you have left there coz you ain't gonna have something like that happen in SG. *winks* Ok, I sound super horrible here. I don't intend to be a bad influence to them both, so you two girls had better DO YOUR TUTORIALS!


I super hate it when ASSHOLES approach me out of the blue to talk about BLUE TOPICS.

Seriously, STOP or I'll gnaw you up!


case-study presentation today with Geribean. OVER & DONE with!

TRA-LA-LA

Today, I was being compared to someone. It felt... nice?

Saturday, April 05, 2008

Child's play... B.O.R.I.N.G.

Let us all start this off with a yawn, okay?

*yawn*



An sms I received today; "Sigh...Watevr happened 2 loyalty? Ppl r makin empty promises so freely & wit no conscience.. I wonder hw they can slp @ nite? How they look in the mirror? Hypocrites!"


How very true!

Dude, if you don't love her anymore, just make your point clear so she can move on and at the same time, you can take your sorry ass somewhere else to fart your honey-coated words. Don't keep her hopes up by saying overly-mushy stuff like "I'll still fly your honeymoon plane" or "I'm not with someone else".

Got new gf then say lah! Denying because, why?! Ashamed of her? She got 3rd nipple huh? *rolls eyes*

Claim that you're single but the odds prove otherwise. Tsktsktsk. Can't even lie to save your own sperms. KUKU HEAD!!!! Mummy never teach you is it? If you can't lie well, DON'T EVEN TRY! Make yourself appear lower than dirt... and more despicable than a cad!

*yawn*


"HONEYBUNCH" is the name of my late-doggie's toenail ;)


What "career" do you currently have? Part-time vagina-intruder, or full-time bastard?

I know...


BOTH.

*yawns with mouth wide open*


Bet you don't know what you've done, do you? Bet you don't even know about the damage you've created (go figure out the pun!). Well, guess what, you lovable little sonofagun? You don't know about it now and you wouldn't know about it EVER! Cause you're a lying fake. Irresponsible, two-faced, sex-addicted parasites like you should just burn in hell fire. Even that sort of physical pain can never make up for her emotional and psychological traumas.


Liverpool FC's a loser because "they can never walk alone" eh? HARHARHAR! Guess who just burned off Arsenal's chances of reclaiming their title? *guffaws* Oh, and the gunners (cannon-less) will never win the Champions League. Their teams consists of NOTHING but rapists, overnight wonders and a little black boy who went along with the England Squad for the world cup but didn't even step onto the pitch.

Some team you've got there. No wonder they ain't got their own slogan or club song.

You can stop trying to make up jokes about LFC's famous line "You'll never walk alone" RIGHT NOW. Come up with something new, why doncha'? It gets boring AND lame when you joke about the same things to me over... and over... aaaaannd over... AAAANNNDDD over again.

A little creativity please.

*YAWN*


I pity the new victim. Boy, it's gonna be a long ride for her... hopefully the number of lacerations she receives is alot lesser and alot less painful. Cause NOBODY is as strong as C is. =)

*ahhh-Choooo*

Well now, haven't been blogging alot these days due to the lack of sleep. Hahaha!! Have been sleeping for an average of just 3 hours a day and it's so darned surprising that I can still think straight during shift hours!! Wow!!

A few days back, I was diagnosed with URTI. Took an MC on Monday and went back to the ward on Tuesday thinking that I was alright. Upon reaching there, I nearly blacked out while the Nurse Educator was talking to us!! OMG! Kamaria had to bring me over to the students' bay to sit down for a little bit. Miss Joelle and Mrs May Chia sent me home in the end.

-_-"

That was the most uncomfortable cab ride ever! Now they both know where I live, ohmigoodness!

I have to replace both my remaining Saturdays... so sad...

Friday, April 04, 2008

When I finally heard your voice

Not exactly what I expected but... I'll accept whatever comes my way. If this is what Love makes people do, then I shan't say anything more. Who am I to question the stars? At times I do wonder... is there any mutual understanding between us to begin with? I've never been so exhausted, so damaged. We can never go back to how we used to be... or can we? That's what's left to be seen. As for the rest, I'll just let it float for now. I'm too worned out.

Tuesday, April 01, 2008

I miss you... =(
