Oh well...
think it's gonna be a long post.

I'm a person that really forgives & forget.
I mean it.
Even after quarrelling with Jason,
he smsed me and we became friends again.
I think it's really sweet of people to just check back on what they're doing.
Like, to think that an old friend of yours haven't really forgotten you.

I'm a bad girl.
To think about it, yes I really am.
Looking at friends that are older than me,
like weizhi, xueming, irene.
Im 17, yet they're 18.
It makes me curious why my thinking and stuffs are beyond theirs.
Probably the gap isnt so big either.
I go home late, practically everyday.
After morning shifts of ward duty, I go out.
Be it shopping whatsoever....
I can't stay at home for one whole day.
I think I'll die.
After night shifts, I go for dinner with Bf.
Nah, I see no wrong in doing that.
Imagine that you haven't eaten for a whole day,
okay I really didn't eat the whole day, wanted to eat during my 2nd break today.
But my aunt's, in law's, dad is hospitalised, so I went down to check him out,
chatted with my aunt and uncle.
There goes my 2nd break.
Breaks are very very important to me!
Got my reasons for this. =)

My parents complain that I havent been home.
Oh anyway, Shasha gave birth to 2 puppies, unfortunately one goned, cos he was trapped under the wooden barrier, in which Sha wasn't able to catch her out. Probably it's just fated that we cant really keep a male dog.

Weird stuffs:
My first dog, Mickey, male, was sent away.
Followed by Qooshie, in a car accident.
Then my little Qooshie, hours after birth.

TRAGIC!

But most likely I would persuade my parents to keep the puppy.
In memorial of Qooshie.
That puppy is a female one.

Was talking to an uncle in the ward in the night.
I was really curious so I asked him some questions, translated.
He's got lung problems thus not able to swallow food via mouth.

"Uncle, would you still feel hungry when being fed by tube?"

- Will lah, but what to do. Also like that.

"Orh okay, won't you get bored? When I was admitted for dengue, I was bored to the core"

- It depends on how you treat your stay in the hospital. If you look negatively, then obviously, you would make yourself more upset. When my friends come, it just seems like the time is really enjoyable. "苦中作乐" lor.

His thinking really impressed me.
I've seen many patients get stressed up living in the ward, in which turned into anger and frustration.

-----------------------------

Many people tell me stuffs like,

Im impressed by what you do.

But thinking again, is it really that impressive.

Things nurses gotta do (that's if you wanna know):

• Change diapers
• Clean perinal area if neccesary
• Assist patient to bathe
• Assist patient to pass motion
• Assist patient to pass urine
• Observe for tube fed patient's oral hygiene and clean if necessary
• Taking vital signs/parameters (BP, pulse, respiration, SPO2, temperature) hourly/4hourly
• Perform bedbath
• Lift and transfer patient (eg: position patient to higher end of the bed)
• Changing of linen
• Clear urine in urine bag
• Chartings

Okay, that's most of it that I can remember.
I brought donuts to Bf's workplace yesterday.
Kept a box for his uncle as well.

I don't know why, probably I felt a little disappointed in someone today.
I went to the staff toilet and seretly cried.
It's been a long time since I cried.
So be honoured alright?
Bf cheered me up, and that really made me feel better.
At least I know I'm not the only person standing.

HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY!
