31 May 2010

even at the very end stage,
the person who understands you the most,
is still your mummy!

not intending to reveal the incident to mummy.
since she knew it from sis,
then i told her the whole story.

the fact about how i dealt with this incident,
had been against to some,
who din get the point i stood.
well, the fact about why everything should comes to an end,
the fact about ignoring everything,
the fact about not chasing after what was meant to be mine,
had been voiced out to serveral.
and suggestions still surfaced.

but when i told mummy my stand,
she kept quiet and nodded.
she knew where i was coming from.
she knew why i'm making such decision.
and she even consoled me
and somehow
she knows i was disappointed.
she knows i was affected.
she know i was not as strong as i seemed.
i sensed that she's the only one who knew.
not even boy,
i guessed.

i'm glad this matter had been rested for 2weeks.
it's peace time.
it's the healing for me.
it is so prominent,
even that reply regarding the gathering event
made me laughed.

i'm glad mummy knows about it afterall.
i'm glad she knows what i'm feeling.
because sometimes,
money really isn't the most important thing to me.
and knowing how selfish i am
towards family members,
she understands me...
:)


• gossips•

"if this is so going to happen tonight,"


"misery will all be surfaced."


i'm gonna have my 3night shifts again.
looking into the assignments.
OMG- in HD again.
before i've seen my assignments,
i knew the night staff i'm gonna be working with,
is no longer the fun ones.
and the fact that this time
i'm working with the lazy lady
who loves excusing herself
having backpain and couldn't do junior work all the time,
is making me afraid of my nights.

please don't do this to me.
it's really making into trouble.
please gimme good 3 nights.
no havoc-ness please.
no admission please.
because dealing with the 3 fellas,
is making me so ill.

and please be more initiative to help me.
i'm the in charge,
and my mind will be filled with
the medication that is to be given every single hour.
all i need is:
your greatest help.
because it's all about teamwork.
for once,
up till choiceless.
i have to make sure you work as hard as me.
i'm not gonna let you slack off your nights.
i'm praying super hard.
praying for good nights.

and if you sensed it,
i'm suddenly so afraid in night working.
and missing the moments
of tucking into the bed
dreaming and drooling.
hmm...


• sexy results•
28 May 2010

so it's been almost a year since i last met chenlin.
but as for andy,
ayee.. countless times.
then this gathering,
though without kellyn,
was the next outing after a year since we left w46 after our PRCP.


had our lunch cum tea at cozy cafe @ PS.
woah.. i finally managed to dine in there.
like i always wanted but for don't know what reason,
i never step into the rest. before.


proceeded watching 'Sex and The City 2'.
oh hell,
we laughed so hard.
and again i missed the part 1,
and i'm so going to watch it online.
it's really really nice movie.
so bitchy.
so wild.
so much so that i just can't stop laughing...


then travelling all the way to bedok to sing.
sang for exactly 3hrs.
and i couldn't believe a sick person
can still managed most song without going off key.
but the last few songs,
my voice give way.
ohh... i give it all,
and both of them laugh at my airy off key..
T_T
we ended our day with a supper of porridge and hokkein mee.
i ate only porridge due to my illness.
and for once i went out with these people
i homed after midnight.


nice day out.
and i can't wait to recover from my sexy voice now.
it's sounded quite bapok-ish..
oh my...


• i did•

many people used to ask me this question:
if you saw someone fainted at the roadside,
and being a nurse,
will you go forward to help the person?'


my answer will always be,
'why must i? i'm already off duty!!'


but ytd while on my way to clinic,
i literally saw a woman lying on the floor,
at the ramp near the bus stop.
everyone crowded her,
but no one seems to be helping her.
there were passerby from aunties back from market,
woman bring kids to school,
older aunties uncles sitting at void deck chatting.
then one uncle pitched,
'aiya she's(the woman lying on the floor) just having asthma.
a while later she'll be alright.'


initially i stand aside watching,
just like what the passerby did.
but upon hearing what that uncle said,
i know asthma is something that can kill a person if not treated on time.


i went forward.
managed to see the chest rises and falls.
there's breathing.
then i knelt down checking her pulse,
present.
and the next moment,
she grabbed hold of my wrist..
and managed to open her eyes.
and then closed.
then eyes open again.


next, something weird that happened that makes me felt so really weird.
she sit up,
and laid back on the floor.
but it was intentional.
it was not like there was an impact of loud thud when she laid back.
or neither was it lying back without control.
her eyes was not focusing when she looked at me.
i knew she could see something because she grabbed her phone,
and kept it beside her.
she then laid laterally.
which i felt really weird.


when my bus arrived,
i saw her standing up.
and i left her boarding the bus.
knowing the malay man who called the ambulance earlier on was with her.
i left the scene with a conclusion.


concluded that she is having some mental disorder.
yes, the way the eyes doesn't focus,
and the intention of sleeping on the floor,
and her posture,
was so much proven she was alright.
she did not throw any fits.
she really seemed ok.
maybe just wanting attention.
but from my assessment,
she's fine.


it was quite a funny experience for me
because when everyone asked me that question
whether i will go forward saving people,
i really don't know how to answer.
but now i knew my answer.
i know what i will do when that really happens...


• passed•
27 May 2010

pheeeeew!!
i did not receive that call
that can make a person devastated and dread!!


ok after the ICA exam,
we were told that if we fail,
within a week,
you will received a call from the instructor
notifying your failure.


so it's been a week.
and i have not receive any!!!
cool shit.
first time pass...
cool shit. damn cool shit...
YAY!!!
happy!!
cause it was a last min preparation for me.
and congrats to er, MJ, xiaofeng, Sri and everyone.
haha... we all made it..
let's toss our drinks!!
:)


but then again,
it means i'm 'certified' working at ICA.
:(
:(
:(


• SICK•


the work load in high dependency can be very hectic.
every hour
your patient oxygen level decrease
and the fact that you can't had a breather
resulted me falling sick.

anyway i told sharon ytd
my wish for the day was to be able to go for my breaktime.
but the worst thing that happens was
2 staff was on MC
and my junior had to go to general side to help
with an in charge and a junior handling 3 ill patient.
so my wish wasn't granted last morning.
sharon and i were starved by the time
work ended.

however i was felt having H1N1 symptoms now.
feverish. flu. sore throat. body ache.
i seriously hope it was just a seasonal flu.

well i know my immunity hasn't been good.
and the thought that i overworked myself at work,
caused it even more easily falling sick.
and i'm really sick falling sick again.
the thought about swallowing pills again.

i'm glad i doesn't need to take MC.
because i'm off today.
but well
plans for meeting chenlin and andy later still continues.
:)


• what a waste•
24 May 2010


i actually went to work this noon
only realising i'm off duty after changing into the scrub suit.
am i too workaholic or something?
well, i realised that woman did tell us that
there were changes to our working schedule.
but due to the amount of things i have to rmb each day at work,
i totally forgotten about rechecking it.
how irritating.
so i wasted my day just like that.
could have plan for shopping or meeting up with friends.
nevermind.

like what i told boy,
this new environment have been quite challanging for me.
but the only concern i'm brooding everyday
was about the advance diploma plans.
it was known to my ex manager.
but not the current one.
and i just couldn't find a proper timing to inform her.

i'm still continuing saving up for it.
and hopefully once the application is out,
i'll be able to get in.
if i don't,
well, i shall get myself nikon D5000.

shall not think about it anymore.
my brain is limited...
:(


• leaving?•


knew about some colleagues
who had already prepared their self nomination form.
seems like many are planning to leave
this miserable ward
when the ward sister
don't appreciate what we have done
but giving blunt comments
chasing foreign nurses back to their country.


seriously the sentence:
'you can now pack your bags and go!'
'go back to your india, china, wherever you come from,
pack your bags and leave!'
have been printed in my mind for so long.
though she isn't referring to me,
but it's really too deep of an insult.
i mean,
how can i human be so blunt.
and the fact that she was saying that during roll call.
well, she makes me reminded of the nurse manager
that i met during my PRCP.
its really damn damn scary to know
such human exist.
the part that their words
can make someone have the thought of committing suicide.
because they just condemn you right till where you were born.
how pathetic.


i have been very careful at work all this while.
trying my best not to make any silly mistake even while you were so so busy.
because i know one day
i might be one of them she's condemning.
it's really scary working with a sister like this.
really scary.
and i know many have decided to leave.


i guess the dark shadows i had in my PRCP ward
is coming back somehow.
so i'm praying hard i don't get condemn by her...
be low profile better.
but the fact they all knew i changed my name before,
had already been high profile...
good luck to me,
really good luck to me...


• talking•

it's good to always talk to someone
about your feelings
and catch up with people whom
you really missed out
while you were busy-ing.

though it was just a 2hrs
sitting down at a cafe
talking to someone
it simply feels great enough.

just like the song by John Mayer
' it's better to say too much
than to never to say what you need to say again.'
i love this part of the lyrics a lot.

and yeah,
i managed to share my thoughts
with someone i cared
and she shared hers with me.
though i lost a 9years friendship earlier on
i know i'm not missing out another 9years of friendship.
the other person whom i will turn to
talking about anything.
and that's right, it's subha.

so the secondary school gathering
that was already organised.
my attendance depends on whether ba and fifi are going.
coming weekend.
i'm really lost whether to go or not...
the worst part is:
i organised it..
:(


• randomness•
22 May 2010

seemed like i just had to work and work and work.
but the thought about the one day trip to malacca,
that's happening on 12 june,
and going with my colleague,
makes me super excited.


and the fact that i've booked my last slot of AL,
on coming august,
because there were a planned of 4days down to penang.
i just can't wait to leave s'pore.
a place where my roots were.
the roots to everything.
then when i'm away,
i can then let go thinking about anything,
and RELAX myself.
i jusssssst need a breather!!


you know,
sometimes you just work your month off,
and when you think back how much time had pass you by,
you realised you just need a break to slow things down.
so that was exactly how im feeling...
the desperation to travel...
:D


• the 30th•

feeling pretty empty in s'pore.
the fact that there isn't much place for fun.
he discovered this area last year,
and on our 30th,
he brought me here for viewing...



Marina country club.
it is located at punggol end.



the pier...
















this is the place where others parked their private boat...
and it's pretty cool to have your own boat license isn't it?






quite a nice view afterall.
eyeopener..
liked.
:)


• The truth, The verdict•
20 May 2010

(You are encouraged not to read it if you dislike long post. This post is really gonna very long.)



it all started off nine years back. while both innocence met and became good friends. we share about idols, talking about guys, about music. we share about everylittlething a teenage girls normally do. even about family problems. the toppest secrets. the every details, we shared. that gradually we knew so much about each other. the bond. the motivation in life. the advice sharing. the crying when we needed shoulders. the laughter. the argument. the shopping. the gossiping. the MEMORIES.

In high school, while we were mugging hard for n levels and then o's, was the toughest part of our life. we motivated each other to study. we study together. meals together. macdonald together at teck whye, taught each other. and after graduation, i made it, but you did not. you cried and i was there for you. when you dad passed on, i was there for you. when you became financially uncapable at times, i was there to help. and i have never looked down on you. when you were happy, you turned to me the first revealing and sharing the news with me. when you broke up with your ex, i was there to hear you. hear you crying the hardest while you could hardly speak. i stand with you.

it was all memories, girl. i do not understand all these moments that we've gone through was so easily affected by the tiniest incident that happened 5months ago. and now everything is beyond salvaging. this friendship is totally broken. ruined. finished. done. And this will be my last post about anything that regards you. a post that takes nine years of bonding to wreak!

i guess i have mentioned enough about the incident. i lost my dignity halfway through the incident. it's not about initiatives afterall. i dried my saliva explaining my stand, and i've vexed too much over what had happened. i guess i'm really giving up you. time could heal the scars?

if we remove the third parties found in this incident, who is at fault? if the third parties did not entered, things may never be surfaced. because even if it didn't surfaced, i have long thought of giving up. to see this incident, i see it from it's root. i was being nice to help you, saved you from your difficult times. and when i needed you, where were you? being out of reach, and? kept quiet. and? now pushing the blames on me, and felt pissed?

all and all, i had never regret knowing you. God gives me a nine years of friendship which i'm very appreciated. since the day i chose you as a friend, although i never had received any positive comments, i still stand by you. i have been ignoring all sorts of comments about people whom WE knew, because i believe you were still the one i knew since then. i understand people will change. and i accept the part you changed overtime. but i never did expect this bond could be so fragile over years.

forget about being bridesmaid, forget about anything we had promised to do together in the future. because i'm telling you that, i will never be fulfilled anymore. and this is the end. memories with you will FULLSTOP here. i am taking the words from others whom i had ignored over these years. this is not a harsh move, because i have thought over it for a month.

it had, of course, impacted me that if whatever your sis had mentioned was truthly how you feel, then i've got no say. but do forgive me if i did not greet you on streets in the future. lastly, i need you to know that you have, again, lost ANOTHER friend who sacrifies so much for you. And thanks for having this in return. Greatly Appreciated.







to my readers who are having your eyes stuck between the lines, i had made my hardest decision this year. and i've been quite affected by this incident. i learnt my lesson. and if happened that my mood was foul on you, i'm greatly sorry. and i apologised if i was being too annoying. And well, it's another leap in life.

the leap leading a life without someone whom i used to share my everything to. imagine te same thing happen to you, i believe it could never be a good position to be in. or maybe you had already encountered that in life, you would understand how i felt. so people, do appreciate your friends whom you felt sacrifies and helped you through your toughest day of your life, during the ups and downs. they are the grateful ones. cherish them... ...

while i was so bored studying,
this picture pops out from the window...


and they started singing in my mind...

time for some stress-off matters.
nice photos to loosen my mind...


time to switch off the window,
and goes back to serious studying...
(and it's dreadful...)


• 2½ years•

for once i wished the day 19th of the month don't come.
19th is always a day that marked how far we went.
and for tomorrow,
it's our 30th month,
i wish it doesn't comes.
because i'm having my ICA exam,
which i have not much studied.


this morning revising my FB,
saw that long message,
i felt the more of giving up.
giving up on what has happened,
giving up on what i had experienced.
giving up on facing it.
giving up on explaining, even.


sometimes you were just trying to be nice,
but in someway or another,
you are blamed to be not understanding.
i always thought my stand was clear.
i thought i wasn't in the wrong.
but now that things got worst,
i was the one causing it.
so maybe next time i should be a bad-er person?
not better!


the world is like that.
and it's always those nitty gritty that creates problem.
even at work.
nitty gritty causes so SO much of trouble.
and thinking of facing those little little things,
makes me real annoyed.
but i know this time round i can't escape.
i didn't escape.
i needed my name cleared.
because i don't understand what wrong foot did i stepped.
-_-""
like i always say:
money matters spoils relation...


• exam over work•
17 May 2010

now my mind is no longer about work,
but the exam i'm facing in 2more days.
OMG!
it's the first time,
i handle my exams, LAST MINUTE.
i have never in my life,
so not prepared for an exam.
but well,
i was so tired after work everytime.
and i wouldn't have the mood to flip through thick notes.
and off days are mend to be enjoying,
so resulting,
i'm not prepared.


tml...
tml i'll used my off day,
to study hard.
argh!!
hate it...

• sweat it out•

another off day out to sweat.
planned to cycle.
and besides the two of us,


a third company.
Chill~


and after changing his busines wear to causal...



wahhahaha... *unglam*







so we rented a double seated bicycle.
as always.
because his GF has phobia with wheels.


(you think he did manage to went down?)



so Chill and Bongo was in the basket enjoying the sea breeze,
while both of us went uphill and down slopes.



the most sinful place ever!!
seafood!!



we were only allowed to travel at this speed.
but good thing is ECP doesn't have speeding cameras...
:)


and we were nearer to the finish line!!
YAY!!


went to the jetty,
and saw a jelly fish floating up..
can u see it?
try harder...


and dusk came in...



went pass the sailing association.


and at night,
some uncle manage to caught some big fish...
this was edible...

and i did had my experience seeing how they catch squid.
it's interesting.




so dinner at Aston.
if you love Aston,
you will know what we had ordered...





my fav IBC rootbeer,
his OJ.


a good outing that manage to sweat us out.
due to the lousy weather,
we sweat more than we could.
and by the end of the day,
we were sticky all o'er.
but with the dinner,
we got back the calories we lost.
haha..
so what's the point?
:)


• changes•
15 May 2010

i wish it was not harsh on me.
i wished i wasn't the sensitive one.
i wished i wasn't being annoying.
but somehow i was being annoyed.
because i hate to mention about work during off days.
neither do i love receiving calls from workplace during my offs too.


so i dislike it when it happens on you.
then again,
there's a need for it.
what to do?
i have to endure isn't it?


but if you understand what i meant,
i just need a day when you can have yourselves whole day for me.
just like in the past.
WITHOUT distubances...
sigh...


• long distance•


well, have always been giving listening ears to people these days.
and most of them were talking about couple rltnships.
which is what i wanted to bring about.

although i have read,
or even heard a lot about it,
it's been the second person i heard within this week,
sharing about something called 'long distance relation'.
it is really the biggest test ever for a couple,
or rather how bad could it be,
when you needed him/her,
but he/her can't even be by your side?

be it for business,
be it permanent resident.
it's always very hurtful knowing what both parties have to go through.
and it's never NEVER easy to manage relations like that.
the worry and many other factors,
easily create insecurity.
and if you rely a lot on your partner,
the chances of you coping well,
is gonna be negative.

if there isn't a thing called 'long-distance relation',
how great would it be?


• shine after rain•
14 May 2010


adrenaline rush always happens when it's time to work.
and seriously working life hasn't been very peaceful in the ward.
every week an average of 3death were heard.
and we were really nursing ill people.
we were rather immune to doing last office.

it was quite demoralising for many of us.
battle everyday.
battle ended later than we expected.
and often overtime- working was the result.
pretty stressful.
grumpy faces were seen at my ward.
everyone unhappy working.
dreaded to work.
MC rate increases.
lesser laughter heard since the opening of the ward.

and with that,
off days and ALs were most appreciated.
everyone spent the offs enjoying.
it felt like a gift.
like an antidote.
an escape from battlefield.

i'm glad i spent my sleeping day out with fun.
my gossip kaki,
the guy whom i can talk and gossips about work all day long.
so i met andy at cityhall.
and headed to marina for our lunch cum dinner( dinch).
and followed by two games of bowling.

fortunately i did not clean the drain as often.
it was real fun.
and not forgetting gossiping and cursing of the unfortunate incident at work.
then proceeding to watch Ip Man 2,
for the second time.
and it was still as great as watching it for the first time.

and as for today.
TGIF!!!
i'm off.
and to boy,
it's GF's day.
a date for both of us.
with no interference, i hoped.
watching Iron Man 2 with cheddar popcorn at cathay later.

we played Deal just now.
and as promised,
i lost and the forfeit was to make him a meal...
well, have to start flipping through that dusty receipe book of mine.
have thought of a few dishes in mind already.
coincidently i told sis last week
that it's been long since i last cooked.
and even she wants my cooking...

time to whip out something new,
and make both of them my guinea pig..
muahahaha....
*GRIN*

13 May 2010


like i was dreaming...
i wanted to travel...


• drenched totally•
12 May 2010


can't believe i made another record.
of working a 12hours shift last night.
i only managed to end work by 0930hrs.
and i worked since 9pm.
fcuking tired.
and the thought of ending nursing comes in again.

though the ward occupancy was 23 patients.
and we got 7staffs at night,
it was still insufficient for us to complete work ontime.
there were still shortage of man power in some ways.

the thought of handling 4 ill patient,
when i need to monitor them hourly,
and the thought that i am doing it all alone,
makes me so scared of working.
can't even have a proper break.
can't even hydrate myself,
when i have to hydrate my patient with all the drips tt was scheduled.
i can't even save myself,
how can i save my patient?

argh... let me whine.
i hate this.
seems like every staff aren't going home on time.
overtime, always.
and do we earn extra penny?
NO!!!
i'm beginning to get tired of all this.

i am drenched with tiredness totally.
i literally yawned too much,
till my jaws were painful.
till my head went giddy.
till you can hardly see my eye...
i walked home with eyes closed.
for the first time..

and my mum actually thought that i'm not coming home...
what a joke?
i work too late till she thought i went out after work..
HUH.....
total madness, i'm facing...

(thank you for reading my whines... ,appreciated!)


• never been so badly•
11 May 2010


never been as badly as last night.
have been 2days.
maybe it's 'JUST' 2days for others,
but i know it's been tough for us...

should i say i was lucky to be mindfilled busy last night.
and the fact that i was throw into High-Dependency,
makes me have no time to think of you.
by the time my shift ended,
i realised how badly i need you by my side.
i was so tired.
so sleepy.
but my soul subconciously wakes up when you text me,
before i even reached home to bed.

finally,
i'm able to see you later.
hug you, smell you, kiss you, and SMILE...
and then dinner with you.
i can't wait for later.
but i hope time will stop when i see you.
so that i don't have to work through the nights again...
but how impossible is it?

even more than words can say..." --the Moffats.


• the night•
10 May 2010


i remember the last time i did night shift was
last december.
or maybe earlier than that.
it's been almost half a year.
and today,
i'm finally on the shift again.
have been looking forward for night shift.
because this time round,
i'm working with all nice fellas.
and the thought that it will increase my income,
makes me grin wider.

though many things had always happened during nights,
i really hope mine will be a peaceful one..
i know it's gonna be super hectic.
but like i said,
working is always like a war...
once a day of work ends,
you know you have accomplished and won the battle...
it's never ending.
unless i surrender.

for the next three days,
i'm gonna stay positive.
but please bare with my whine...
i know i'm capable of doing that all the time...
:)


• happy in the end•

so last night,
despite mummy at work,
sis and i went down to workplace to fetch her out for dinner.
time check: it was 9pm plus...
we brought her to swensens at BPP.






























the root beer float was nicce.
mummy had chilli crab pasta.
sis gotten prawn dipper and chef salad,
while i got myself sambal fish..
the dinner was fab!!

and the best part was
the cold war has ended...
happy mummy day!!
she was, in the end, a happy mummy!!
