Drained.

Almost frozen at triage. And I'm wearing the PPE (think of those yellow gowns during SARS or H1N1 times) with my cardigan and apron and uniform. Thats FOUR layers if you want to count. Haa. I think the institution's air-con is FOC thats why.

Sighs. Here comes yet another small head a.k.a. xiao tou.

*Rolls eyes.

Oh. Its not a xiao tou that came.

Anyways, I'm freaking tired la. Haven had a good rest since before I went Bangkok. Totally drained. I wish.. I wish for a luxurious resort spa trip say in Maldives. Haa. Okays, I'll just make do with Bintan if its too expensive. Maybe I'll go with this special someone since its been what I always dreamed for. Oh oh, too early to dream now. LOL!

2 more hours to go LAAAAAAA!!! Grrrr. I NEED MY BED!

anyways, I've been wanting to post this few days back but din really have the time to do it. so here goes.

I received a mail few days back from an unkown sender (okays, I din know her so its sort of unknown), asking me about the makeup I use and requesting me to SHOW her how I do my makeup. Sheesh, this sounds totally bimbotic. Okays, nvm.

Firstly, let me thank you sincerely for reading my stodgy blog. I didn't know ppl actually come in and READ. Haa. Thank you for your support once again. :)

Sooo. Before I answer your question, let me ask you something in return first. Are you sure you got the right person? As in, am I really who you're referring to? Cos I thought my friend does better makeup than me. Haa.

If I am then I doubt I can enlighten you much cos I do really simple makeup. As in just foundation, blusher lip balm and tts it. Oh, eyebrows are a MUST cos I got no eyebrows (not literally but can't see much). Other than that the most I just do some eyeliner and mascara when going out at night. I'm not a fanciful makeup person so ya, thats abt all.

And regarding the contact lens. Yes I do wear contact lenses and I used to wear acuvue clear but now I switched to soflens38. Feels the same to me thou.

I'm not sure if this is what you're asking for but this is all I have for you. Hope it does help! Hee. :)

obviously not in a good mood today.

EVERYONE IS PISSING ME OFF!!!!!

i need to ventilate.

AAAARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'M BAAAACK!!!!
Finally. My legs will shatter if I stay there any longer. Bangkok was FUN but super tiring can. Like we shop almost the whole day everyday. Literally shopping like we never shopped before. Yet you still feel like its not enough. Oh, I din buy a single shoe frm BKK can you believe it? NOT A SINGLE PAIR! faints. Thats so not like me. But nothing caught my eye seriously. They either suck in quality or simply looked like crap. Shoe addict I am, but I don't go for just any shoe. :)

You know when they say you'll really see the true colours of a person just by going on a same trip with him/her, I think its so true. Not in a bad way. Rather to get to know them in greater depth. Its totally different from how you interact with them normally, especially if you don't get to see them every single day. Well, something that I observed during the trip beside the tonnes of clothing I saw. Haa. In a way it made my inner self grow to be more understanding, compromising and forgiving, and learnt the importance of those. Grins.


Btw, Blogger is FINALLY back in action. *rolls eyes* Took them years.

Lost in Shenton Way. Like can you believe it? I felt like I was a tourist, minus the culture shock. And I almost got banged by a car cos I jay-walked! Grr.. Not that I didn't want to use the traffic light, but there wasn't any at the junction I stood. Rolls eyes.


Oh, and I felt totally out of place in my t-shirt and shorts where everyone else were either wearing shirt and pants or in their suits.


Sighs. I wasted ONE HOUR just to find my way back to the no.100 bus stop after deciding to return to Golden Mile's money exchange. Not counting the time I wasted making my way to Shenton Way and looking for the money exchange. Should have trusted my instinct and changed the moolah at Golden Mile there and then, and not falter at the thought that Shenton Way may have better rates. If not I could still have some time to catch a wink before shift starts.




Oh well, another 24 sleepless hours.

This kiddo I was attending to suddenly pointed to my back and started crying and screamed,  "uncle's gona catch me! uncle's gona catch me!". I was standing in front of a wall.




Freak, people.

Jinxed.

Just as me n jim were sharing our jinxed experiences the night before, the ultimate jinx-ness fell upon me this morning. First, I forgot my locker key! Like of all days why must it be today when I brought xiao bai (my lappy) to work! Grr.. Perhaps the habit of making sure my key is in my bag flew to slumberland together with my brain. Sighs. Obviously I panicked cos it was like 6.55am when me n germac finished our slides and I haven't changed! And.. and.. Sister Lee was totally snappy so no way of getting the spare key from her. Lucky lucky me. Jaime's got an extra pair of shoes and germac kindly offered me her stethescope, pen, access card, and literally her whole locker cos she was post night already. Haa. I'm really well-loved eh?

Second. Halfway through report Sister Tor came in and told me PSTC was today! I was like "Not tmr meh!?". I remembered its on my second morning which is tmr lo! Anyways she was right and me, TOTALLY NOT PREPARED!! argh!! I'm really not a fan of mock codes and plus it was at the simulation training centre! They freaking take ur video while u run the code and they replay it during debrief! BUT, was ok la. Not tt bad though could have been better.

Next. Just when I was heading for my lunch box to fill my rumbling tummy, I realised my fork n spoon are in my LOCKER! AND.. MY LOCKER KEY WAS AT HOME! AND.. there wasn't a single disposable spoon in the pantry! Had no choice but to use somebody else's spoon (I dunno whose). Just when I thought everything was settled and started eating, the spoon I was using fell onto the floor......


Tell me u're not pissed.

Demoralised.

Question: Why is it that a boy who looked clinically sick can be a 9 case because his vitals were still stable, but a boy who looked clinically well must be a resus case because his BP was just 2mmHg lower than what its supposed to be?


I'm talking abt these 2 brothers who came in complaining of vomiting and was dehydrated. I seriously thought they can be seen just as 9 cases. But its ok. I'll admit its my mistake and learn from it. Next time I'll just put everyone in the resus room. :)


Yesterday was just not my day. Perhaps I saw things I shouldn't be seeing, and subsequent events to it were totally inane. This bitch came in with her son-of-a-bitch (literally) having a lacerated back of the ear. Went all the way to the waiting area without being triaged or registered. So I got approached by her and nicely brought her to triage to examine her SOAB. There she began to bombard me with a million questions like "Why do I have to go through all these?" "This is an EMERGENCY right?" "Can I see the doctor NOW?". I really felt like giving her two tight slap STAT!

See, your child was jumping about, though sitting on a wheelchair. And pardon me for asking, but does your child walk with his ears? U mean your child couldn't walk because he had a laceration behind his ear? Why deprive other kids from having a chance to sit on a wheelchair when they need it more than that silly son of yours playing on that wheelchair? AND YOU CALL THIS AN EMERGENCY?! So what if you have money to pay? Its not about the money my dear bitch. This is an emergency department and YOU DON'T CHOOSE DOCTORS!!! Which part of my lousy english did you not understand that you have to go in to the nurses' station and shout at my colleague, telling that poor girl it was WRONG OF ME TO SAY YOU CANNOT CHOOSE A DOCTOR! And I'm telling you again that your child wasn't a real emergency case because the bleeding has stopped and your f-ing son was playing on that wheelchair and YOU CANNOT CHOOSE A DOCTOR IN AN EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT!!!!!!!


Okays. Something else to make myself feel better.
Have you ever been approached by some strangers along the street telling you they're from some modeling agency and they're looking for some new faces crap thing? Well I thought they disappeared for quite some time cos ppl were complaining about it n stuff. So as I was on my way to work yesterday, this C-H-I-N-A girl came and talked to me. I thought she was gona ask me for directions or smth. Then she began yakking and gosh, out of the 10 sentences she said I didn't even understand half a sentence. Until she brought her card out and I read it was some modeling agency then I came to realise what I was in for. So I quickly rejected her and walked off. Haa. Though they may be out to con ppl, but makes you feel good in a sense. :)
