Lecturers like you've never seen them before!

After reading Duckie and Dorie's blog, I've suddenly got inspiration to blog about the same thing; SADISTIC LECTURERS.

We're already young adults (not trying to be rebellious, just stating a VERY logical fact) and they're still treating us like babies; telling us what to wear, how to behave, what to do... wanna teach me how to plan my diet or not? BASKETBALL! Their reason for making life so difficult for all of us is:


ALL OF YOU ARE FUTURE NURSES. MUST KNOW HOW TO BEHAVE.

Yeah, listen to what you've just said... FUTURE nurses. Current, we're just students. So is there really a need to implement those dumb rules and restrictions for SHS students? Hell, we don't even wear our lanyards 24 hours a day, so in other words, NOBODY is gonna know we're from SHS when we're on campus. Which brings me to the point of WHY MUST YOU ALL BE SO SQUARE AND RIGID?!

Cannot do this, cannot do that... eh, it's no different from being in a convent lor! If you guys are so afraid that the female nursing students would reveal too much by wearing too little clothes, shouldn't you be giving talks to the male students regarding how they should resist their biological urge?! IT TAKES TWO HANDS TO CLAP! Do not punish the girls and let the guys go off scott-free... Singapore's supposed to be democratic, is it not? So if you're so bent on following the book of rules, why aren't you following this particular LAW?

Ok, enough about them setting dress codes and blah blah blah... let's move onto how this MOPHEAD FAILED ME FOR ASSESSMENT!

My scenario was a cataract patient who required eye dressing and instillation of eye drops. EASY! I did EVERYTHING right; maintaining aseptic techniques, did my 3 checks, did my 5 rights, ensured patient's safety, counter-checked with "Staff Nurse".

But you guys know how I managed to fail?

When I placed the eye-shield on the "patient" and taped it down, the micropore tape at the top of the eye-shield was touching the eye-brow of the right eye (shield is on the left eye). Therefore, she failed me because I was "causing injury to the other eye".


GWAK?!

Injury to the other eye?!?! HUH!!!!!

Please lor, she herself said that the shield was stable (thankyouverymuch for that hypocritical statement) but she didn't like the way I taped it down. AND SHE FUCKING DIDN'T GIMME THE POINT!!!

Mophead mophead mophead!

And throughout the assessment, I could tell that she was in a bad mood. That woman was going "tsk... tsk... tsk.." at almost every move I made, she threw her pen and paper on the bed a couple of times (God knows why!) and she was asking me tonnes of questions! So since she ask, I answer lor... AND SHE SAID I REQUIRED ALOT OF PROMPTING!!

Eh, hello! I was merely answering what you asked me leh!

Damn, I so gotta feedback this to Gwen when she gets back. I mean, if a lecturer doesn't wanna assess a student, DON'T ASSESS LAH! Must show attitude meh? Must throw the pen and stack of papers on the bed meh? Macam I want you to assess me like that... if I had a choice of which lecturer to assess me, of course I choose Gwen or Caroline lah! Think I want you?! Yah, I want you to mop my floor!

Talk about professionalism. Talk about patience. Talk about biaseness.

Talk to us about all that during lectures.. in the end, it's NOTHING but CRAP because the lecturer herself doesn't follow it! Hypocrite! I'm sorry if my method of doing eye-dressing is not your cup of tea, but TOO BAD! I was being taught that way by my lecturer! If you're unhappy, tell her! Don't vent your frustrations on me!

Nabeh. She was suddenly so nice to me when she was filling in the re-assessment form for me. Ergh! She was like, "Tsk... it's not that I don't wanna pass you... I just can't, you know? I think you need to watch your CBT again".

What "want to pass you but can't"?! ~!@#$%^&* If you're out to fail me, just say so lah! Why suddenly act so nice ah? Because I'm way taller (and you're on heels) and my shoulders are much wider than yours? Wah, glad you know I could've hammered you into a pulp.

A couple of my girls didn't make it either. =(

C'mon ladies, we'll make it through the next round. Show them we can get perfect scores and that they are the ones who need to watch the damned CBT.
