Long time no post

Hi girls!

Been really bored today and decided to check out this blog.  Realised that my last entry was 2 yrs ago before graduation!  Yup, time flies and you may not notice it.

Well, just a little update on my life.  Yup, I've graduated from NP and started working.  My first job was considered a nightmare for me.  Imagine you working with uncompassionate, cynical hypocrites. Yeah, a total nightmare if you asked me.  Resigned after 6 months and I am now into my second job.  The first few months was another nightmare but luckily things changed for the better and I have been at the same branch ever since.  

My morale has been very low lately with the changes but who ever likes change?  No matter what you have to keep your spirits up and be professional in everything you do.  I guess that's part of working life.  You will be shocked when you find out that some people exists and you have to be good to them even though you feel like killing them.  Well, that's the bad part.  The good part of working life is that you have to be independent with your finances.  

2 yrs into nursing and I guess getting a degree is the next stop for me.

So yup.  Enough ranting

I will sign out now!

Countdown to Graduation! Part 1

Hey guys.  It has been a long time since I've updated this blog.  It also has been 2-3mths ever since I've ended my internship.  Finally got my transcript and my nursing license.  What's left for now is getting a job and graduation.

Then there comes my break, job hunting and my recent trip to Bangkok.  Thank goodness the demonstration were all confined at a park near the Government building, Mum and I had a great time exploring Chit Nom and Pratunam.  Bought some nice things for the latest additions for the family, Janine and Asper,  and of course for Dad too.  Bought loads of snacks too.  Enjoyed the foot massage and the boat ride to the floating market (the coconut pancake is nice!).  We were supposed to go to River Kawe but Mum was feeling unwell so we had to go back to the hotel and rest.  Tried the pork noodle soup at the roadside food stall near the hotel and I dun mind going back for it.  The Madam Tussade Museum wasn't that good as I have expected.  Dun really know the Thai stars featured except Nickhun.  The Aquarium, on the other hand, was good.

The final lap

Hi everyone!  It has been a looonnnngggg time since I blogged.  Guess I won't be able to blog that much now cause *drumrolls* I have started my PRCP (internship to be exact)!  Wow!  Yes!  Face it girl.  You have just 11 weeks left before passing out as a staff nurse.  Scary...  The fact that I am going to graduate and step into the working world in just a couple of months.  Will I be able to adapt well?  I think I have a lot of things I have to improve on.  Being confidant, fast and talkative.  These are the priorities.  Well... Attachments for me so far are still the same.  Nothing much, really.  But everything seems to scare me now....  I just hope to ace this internship, get my diploma and license and start working.

I have also started to think more about my career path.  As you know, I really love kids (which was why I am in Mentoring) and my first choice after the O's was Early Childhood Education or Child Psychology.  But I got into Nursing.  Do I really like Nursing?  I dunno.  Why do you want to join nursing?  Geez...  I have no idea!  Even though I would love to switch career paths after getting my diploma, given my family's financial situation now, I have no choice.  Anyway, even if I want to switch career paths, I am just wasted 3 precious years of my life.  URRRGGGHHH...  THIS IS TOO CONFUSING!

My last day of holiday

This is the last day of my holidays.  Mixed feelings in my head.  The feeling of wanting to go back to school but not wanting to wake up early in the morning.  I hope everything would go smoothly for me.  Wish me luck!

Frustrated!!!

I dun really like my CI. She is always never in the ward when I need her to assess me for my skills. There was once I did IV infusion, as she wasn’t there, I had do it with SN Shaun. On the same day, I did oral medication serving with SN May but it was 8pm. CI dismisses at 5pm. Just yesterday, I wanted her to assess me for NG tube feeding but she has to go for a meeting. In the end, I had to do it with another AN. THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING!!! HOW AM I GOING TO GET MY SKILLS SIGNED? I ONLY HAVE 4 BLOODY DAYS LEFT! Then I finally get her to assess me in medication serving, but my attachment mates are all cornering me, I lost my temper, yelled at them to get lost as they were disturbing my thoughts. In the end, she didn’t sign that skill for me.


At the start of this attachment, I was really praying that I could get along with my attachment mates and hope that they are nice people. But it seems no one heed my prayer. The girls in my shift are nasty bitches. Actually, I am fine if they dun treat me as a friend but treat me as a colleague instead. But they treat me as if I was invisible! There were many times when they left me after shift, so I have to walk alone in the dark for 3 days in a row. Whenever I ask them if they are taking bus or MRT home, bus is the answer. So I asked my mum to accompany me home instead. But when they saw the both of us, they went into hiding. It is so clear that they have been avoiding me. I am starting to feel that some Singaporean Chinese girls are total snobs! #justsaying


And the worst thing over this whole saga, my 2 besties, Heaher and Anne didn’t even comfort me about this while I broke down many times today! I feel so disappointed in them!

Attachments 2.1B part 1

The exams are over which means the attachment period is kicking.  I am in the first bach again because I've changed batch with Pei Shien.  While applying to change, we've met some problems because of that Fucked up Mr Alan.  I dunno what got in his head but I gave him a glare.  GOSH!!!  Just tell me how can people be sooooo rude!  Did their parents and teachers ever teach them manners?  Apparently, the parents and teachers were too focused on the results that they forgot to teach him manners! LOL!!!  Anyway, we resend our application again and Ms Liu, who is our CA 2.1B coordinator, approved of it!!!

 YES!!! Dun you know how long have I been waiting to be separated from that bloody Suk Fen!!!  Yes!!!  Finally.  OMG!!!  She's a pain!  She's a bloody bitch who only knows how to boast abt her bf, boast abt how a male patient molested her, bully me, flirt with a Senior (he is just retaking 2.1) when he alrd has a gf!  She's a total slut I tell you!!!  Come on!  Jonathan( Heather's BF) looks WAY better looking than her bf!  Dun worry, Suk Fen.  I really hate your sluttish looks, your BLOODY FUCKING attitude so the conclusion is I hate you too!!!  You hate me too?  Awesome!  My parents didn't give birth to me just to impress you!  And I am guessing that you are also rude to your elders too huh?  You are just a disgusting ant in my life!

But one sad thing, I won't be working with Chen Li.  :(  I REALLY like working with her as she is my buddy since Year 1.  Haiizzz....  I really hope I can catch up with her real soon!

Ok!  I gotta sleep now.  Tmr is the day of attachment 2.1B with a different group of people in a different ward.  So I am thinking the CI there will be good?  CF too?  Oh yes!  And the Staff Nurses there too!  WISH ME LUCK!!!

I love T08!!!

Exam's near, I hope all of my classmates would do well for the upcoming exams. Results would be out on the 3rd week of our holidays and I hope none of us will be separated. I hope all of us will stick together to the very end or to the end of Year 2. Yes. You're right. I LOVE my T08 classmates. My clique which includes Kimberley, Phaik Ting, Sin Yie, Wang Pu, Xiang Quan and Pui See. My sweetie pies: Fadilah and Wei Fang. Thank you Fadilah for buying my birthday cakes and giving me that cute card to cheer me up!
