My 6 weeks of total biss (holidays, deeaaarr holidays) has ended and attachments started. Yes, only 6 pathetic weeks. Nursing students get very little holidays, but well, better than none at all.

I'm posted to the Accident and Emergency department this week and so far (it may be a little too early to judge since ive only been there exactly two days) it seems fun. Went to the resusitation room yesterday, and i got to see an ETT (endotracheal tube) insertion - totally not like the way we practised in school, plus have gotten the hang of doing ECG (electrocardiogram).
Observation room was tiring today, unlike the name, we don't sit down and observe the patients. Rather had to help them with little things, spent most of the time, bringing the patients to the toilet/helping them with it, and that in itself is very draining because i had to push their bed/trolley into that little room with the toilet inside. Patient after patient needed to go to the loo. Patient after patient we had to push/pull the bed. (Of course the staff nurses there does not just do this things alone.. they gotta call the wards for beds.. make sure that doctor's orders are carried out..etc they looked and were super busy.)
Well, im thankful that the nurses and doctors in the E.D. are nice, making the stay pleasant.


Anyway, thank you people for the presents and the many birthday calls, smses, friendster comments and blog tags, you made me a happy girl. I was grinning from ear to ear like a retard the whole day. Thank you, not for making me look loony, but for making me happy. =)


I was a happy girl last saturday night too. Fauzy took me to the night bazaar in Geylang, and being the gentleman that he is, lent me his new camera to snap photos with, he hasn't even used it! (he's an avid, aspiring photographer). And I've never, NEVER been to a place as crowded as that before. The people!!! There were some moments where we couldn't move, not even an inch. But had a great time nevertheless. Will put up the photos once i get it.
But go lenient on me when you're judging it, because it's my first time taking pictures with those big black cameras okay...


What People Think of Your Mouth

People see you both as reserved and sweet.
You tend to be very sensitive and detail oriented.
The smallest things can please or annoy you. You tend to be internally moody.
Perceptive and intuitive, you understand people quickly - though you usually won't tell them.

kinda true, especially the part that says "the smallest things can please or annoy you"

You Should Wear Plum Lip Gloss

Sassy, seductive, and a little dangerous.

erm.. maybe not now...
