Jia Xuan's 1st month

Wow! Jia xuan's pre-birthday celebration (suppose to be on 24 July) was like a mega big event. My house was like so super congested sia till I can't really move at all. There are people from both my maternal and paternal sides...and my bro and sister in law's friend. It's like CNY. Quite fun though to be able to meet up with all of them. First time my house have buffet session.

Jia xuan seems to have gain much weight from the 2 weeks while she was away, So the gift from me to her is the baby gym, she seems to love it. Anyway now I will be seeing her everyday, Mum had sarcrifice herself to take care of her for the next 2 years. My mum is so noble:):)

Happy sunday

After church, Janna and Connie brought me to a cafe to lim kopi. The cafe is called " Letoile" situated at little india. As I went up the stairs to the 2nd floor of the cafe, I felt like I had stepped into my old house at dover cresent as it was filled with retro furnitures like those I saw in the late 80s, early 90s.....sewing machine...those with the leg pedal kind, wooden sofa, book shelf.... serious, we shouldn't had thrown away our furnitures last time..  drank ice mocha... it was yummilicious!!!

Next, we proceed to Samantha's Birthday party....Samantha, Kayla and Thaddeus kept running non stop around the room...competing with each other. They are like energizer, no matter how they run they never seems to be tired. Highlight of the day: Doraemon cake!!!!

End of the day: World war Z!!!! I just simply loves zombies.... the zombies in this show run really fast, those who r bitten transformed into zombies within like 12 seconds. Omg!!! Brad Pitt goos good!!

Reflections

4 days orientation. Met some old friends, met some new friends.

Madness from the renioun with my good friends. 4 days later regain back my sanity.

From the faces of the fresh grads, I saw a shadow of myself 3 years old- innocence, optimist, cheerfulness, hopefulness,  enthusiastism, chiongster, everything seems rosy.

After 3 years, having experienced the rigid processes, problem in the workplace, got scolded for mistakes not made by me, kena tai chi from seniors and arrowed for jobs I dun like to do

1st year of work:
blur blur,
Managed 12 pts,
Plenty of orders of doctors,
served rich tai tai, starts to see the evilness of humankinds,
made million of mistakes,
become pessimistic,
common phrase " 世界是黑暗的" Thankful for ....
kind hearted Nem seniors (espcially Mae and the night seniors) who are constantly there to guide, warn and teach me.
They made life easier for me so that i dun need to learn things the hard way.
Good Teamwork,
Managers that dun blacklist me for stupid mistakes I made. One of them is sending diaposable knife for sterilisation, major mistake as the knife might hurt my fellow colleagues at the other end receiving it.
Absolutely stupid mistakes...

2nd year: bitterness, grumpy, teared after work, lost, tired of routines, lost of passion.
2.5-3 year: regain back my passion in dem.

I count myself luck,
Not much talent
But always got job offered at the right time.
Saw my friends, they looked exhuasted.
I understand how they feel
Many asked if there's anyway they can get into this program...
...

Missed clinical.
Missed the fun, thrills, friends, excitement, interaction with pt at Dem.
Dem, Tough place to work in, tiredness, fall sick easily, plenty of night shift, one lesser off day- yet still satisfied and love working there.

Tour around the campus,
Eye opener, bigger picture, holistic view.
Hospital got many stakeholder, complicated setting.
got to see different facilities, BMU, SOC,  business office, kitchen, MMD, MRO, linens, 4000, pharmacy, acedamia blah blah blah....
As a nurse, I m a end user to all of this facilties.....
Now, better understand....
All function uniquely yet all interlink....
Cant provide smooth journey for pt without any of this backend services...

After 3 years in the frontline service, I m now the 幕后工成. I hope I can make some contribution within this 2 years..that will benefit the pt and cause less frustrations to my fellow colleagues. This will b my attitude.

Bye bye DEM

My last shift in fever area was busy but awesome, because I work with awesome and kind people: Tan TP (veri funny ah beng dr, saw the nonsense, "keng" cases and ask them "cs" ), Meiyin at triage (good at directing cases out of fever area), awesome in charge Taufiq and sweetie pie Nurul. Saw the first mes pt and isolated her. 

I m so gonna miss this place as I worked with one of the coolest brunch of people on earth. No matter how bad the situation might be or how packed dem is they still can be veri chill and I seldom hear them complain....the spirit put me to shame and teach me not to complain too much. the teamwork is awesome!!! All of u rockz whole time!!!

1 year of bitter, sweet, sour and spicy memories....been through thick and thin with my friends....I gonna miss them so much:):) take care everyone, Sa-u-na-ra!!! I might be back
