Zouk To MOS
Sunday, March 26, 2006 @ 1:46 PM


i think i might end up getting knee ligament injuries someday. my right knee is hurting quite bad, hope it will not affect my running progress.

I have calculated that i only sat down only for an hour yesterday, much of my time during work was working around the clinic, taking reports and medical tests. After my hectic job, i went for a jog 3 rounds of SP (which is approx 10k) and the nite was spent on clubbing, danced till the whole club closed. looks like i aint treating my legs well, perhaps a pedicure someday to pamper them. haha..

**

the 4 of us headed down to Zouk yesterday and was told by one of the staffs there isn't any r&b tonight!! OH MAN! no r&b means it wun be fun~ =< After we finished the drinks @ Zouk, we headed down to MOS(again), just for the r&b.

Before we went to MOS, i had a strong feeling that i might meet him there. Indeed i was right, we saw each other at the dancefloor *more details will not be elaborated here*.

Anyway, Me n Rachel went to PURE and danced there for the first time. It was a new experience to head to PURE because its a room exclusively for adults above 25yrs old. I love the mature crowd there, the guys dance within their group (in their own world) unlike those in r&b where young guys just wan to get close to you. eekk...

i'm glad we did not waste the night partying at Zouk without r&b.
okie! shall be a gd girl now..no more clubbing in the near future. =)

A Surprise for Audrey
Thursday, March 23, 2006 @ 9:21 PM

A big THANK YOU to Ben for arranging a conference on the phone for the RuHuas, its been almost 3 weeks since Audrey went to Australia for her overseas itp and we really miss her lots. She updated us about the things happening there and all of us were shocked by the unexpected news. We are extremely worried abt her safety.

oh man..my eyes are wet now, hope she can really come back to Singapore safe n sound. its hard when u noe that ur fren is going thru difficulties there and u cant be there for her. Anyway she has push forward her flight to the 11th, so tts another 18 more days to go! Till then, all the RuHuas will catch up with each other again with another tai-tai session (cant wait!)..

**

updates on my itp

my days in the clinic are getting better though sometimes i dread repeating the same procedures to the patients everyday. I wonder how my colleagues can do this job for several years, i truly admire their endurance.

its kinda ironic when u're working in the health-line, the supervisor and doctor keep treating u cream puffs, muffins and dim sum (every week). hey, i thought u guys should promote a balanced diet? lol.. but its really nice of them to treat us yea.. =D thanks!

hmm..another fri and sat to go, i cant wait for the weekend already!!
Exam Results
Wednesday, March 22, 2006 @ 9:28 PM



(click to enlarge!)

My results are out this morning and I'm having a mixture of feelings rite now, abit of disappointment and some joy at the same time.

Disappointed because i've made a new year resolution this year, announced to my frens that i want to push my cumulative gpa to 3.4 n promised to work towards my goal. Unfortunately, its still 3.34 and this my semester gpa dropped by 0.06, haiz...alrite i deserve it.

Now the reason i'm glad is because my cumulative gpa did not drop ( maintaining at 3.34 again), in fact i should count myself lucky cause this semester i have been playing n slacking all the while, totally dump all my course books aside and heck care my tutorials n lectures. Esp circuit analysis, i skipped most of the lectures, using internet during ALL the tutorials and revised thru online lectures just a week before my exam. From a D+ for mid-semester test to a B for exam..hmm..*giving a pat on my shoulder*

Unfortunately there is always a C+ for my results and this time is Analog Communication System..KNS! tt module holds a credit of 5, so that's the culprit which pulled my gpa grades down..hmph..!

Date Movie
Thursday, March 16, 2006 @ 10:27 PM


The twisted minds behind Scary Movie - screenwriters Aaron Seltzer and Jason Friedberg - this time skewer the romantic comedy genre. The new film tells the story of hopeless romantic Julia Jones (Hannigan), who has finally met the man of her dreams, the very British Grant Fockyerdoder (Campbell). But before they can have their "Big Fat Greek Wedding," they'll have to "Meet the Parents;" hook-up with "The Wedding Planner," and contend with Grant's friend Andy - a spectacularly beautiful woman who wants to put an end to her "Best Friend's Wedding."

LX wanted to catch this show, so i met her up after work @ gwc to have dinner first before watching it. i wasn't expecting much from this movie because the previous 'Scary movie' was okkkayyy..plus i didn't watch any of the 'date movies' which the 2 writers are making fun of.

However the show turn out to be quite gd!! i still get the jokes though and yes, some scenes are really sick! haha..
i didn't dare to continue snacking during the movie coz some parts are really gross..
imagine eating halfway and it shows this guy rubbed against the other guy's chest and vomit out a large quantity of his sweat and a ball of chest hair.. and yes, they are making fun of 'Along Came Polly'
(sorry for revealing this scene for those who haven catch it yet)

quite a nice show for ppl to destress after their hectic job and those who dun mind their money to be spend on such lame show.

now i cant wait to watch 'Scary Movie 4' already! whheeeee.........!!!
4 blackouts, 1 flood and ECG
Monday, March 13, 2006 @ 9:14 PM

Since the first day of work, i have experienced 4 blackouts and 1 flood in the clinic. Today is the best of all, the blackout and the flood came on the same day. The flood was caused by the burst pipes and there are some shit floating out from the pipe in the bio/physics room. The smell was horrible and we have to constantly spray the air-refreshener.

this week, i will be doing less admin work coz i am assigned to take height/weight measurements, eye vision tests and ECG tests for the patients. In case u guys r not sure wat ECG means, it is
'Electrocardiogram' which is a test used for measuring pulse rate.

Before the ECG test, i must ask the patients to remove their shirt and if the patient is a female, i have to ask her to remove her bra. (eheh..guys, i noe wat u r thinking rite now. U muz be wishing it would be ur job instead rite..? sorrie lor, only female nurse can do the job). Then, i have to stick those wires n stuff on their chests before i print out the readings. If the guy have hairy chest, i have to ask him to shave it off.. kaoz, so embarrassing la! i'm really scare i will laugh when doing the test.

Today only my colleague show me how to do the job and tml will be my turn. Oh man, pls dun let me 'tio' hairy guys! haha.. My colleague also warned me something, i muz be stern to male patients if they are trying to be funny coz some guys will take off their pants instead of their shirt. oh no......
YAY! Its OPRAH!

(click to enlarge pic n read the text!)

*jumping for joy* my fave talkshow will be premiering every Mon-fri from April 3rd on Channel 5!! Hurray!! HAHA! Those who noes me well will definitely know this is one of my fave shows of all-time coz i have been introducing it to my frens.

finally i can catch some of the episodes i missed in the past. Stupid StarWorld for putting her show on 9am and 1pm, lots of women cant catch the show because it clashes with their working hours (including me!).

Now there's another reason for me to stay home everyday, gosh i'm becoming a tv geek soon or am i one already?

here's my weekly tv schedule, the MUST-WATCH shows:

Mon - Desperate Housewives

Tues - Our Makan Places: Lost & Found

Wed - American Idol, Anthony Bourdain: No Reservation

Thurs - American Idol, Amazing Race

Fri - American Idol, Survivor, Jamie Oliver's School Dinners

Sat - Nil

Sun - The Apprentice

i noe its a bit 'no life' and i can get quite miserable if i missed any of these shows. Now with Oprah Winfrey on weekdays, its even harder to get me out of the house..haha

saturday morning
@ 4:09 AM

wat the hell is wrong with me blogging in the middle of the nite at 4am when i still have to work later in the morning?
something is wrong with my body clock now, only manage to sleep for a few hours everyday even though i'm really tired.

now i'm having my breakfast, its abit too early but i'm really hungry..haha

hope my mum wun drag me to go Suntec with her later, dun think i will have the energy to shop anymore. half day tml but will be a VERY busy day.. =<
Dark Luxury
Thursday, March 09, 2006 @ 9:44 PM


Came across the new version of kit-kat recently, the one which is coated with dark chocolate. I was surprised to see that there are many different versions of kit-kat available in the market currently ( other than the chunky milk choc and white choc kit-kat). I duno if i should buy this, u noe one cant be satisfied with just 2 small sticks of it and its highly addictive ( not forgetting ultra-fattening).

However, the two words on the top right hand corner of the box caught my eyes: "Limited Edition". Alright! no second thoughts now, i quickly grab one and head straight to the cashier. The funny thing abt kit-kat is it doesn't taste good after it is place in the refrigerator, coz the choc takes quite some time to melt in your mouth. Anyways, the half melted chocolate really brighten up my day..

Gonna try strawberries, wild berries and another liquor one next time.

back to ITP/Day4

Actually i'm beginning to love my job, in fact i am enjoying doing simple tasks every now and then. My colleagues are extremely patient with me and always very willing to help even though they are busy.

Oh ya, another colleague's birthday today, which means another cake treat again..didn't eat much coz i'm quite picky with cakes. haha..but thanks aniways.

one very hilarious incident happened this afternoon. i was begging for some job to do, in the end i was told to tear up one whole sack of documents in the cupboard. While I was happily tearing them up and throwing them into the bin, a patient came to me and handed me his medical report (which need to be submitted to the HQ). I duno wats wrong with myself, i took the report, placed it with the documents and TORE THEM UP together!

i didn't notice that immediately until something popped out in my head, "hey, where's the report?" I searched my surroundings, to my horror i found them in the bin. OH GOD! its medical report!! arggghh..how?? i'm gonna get shit from them now.

Fortunately, the prob was solved easily in the end. My colleague made a new report for the patient and i made a phone call to ask the patient to come back and sign the report again. Thank goodness the patient was still around the area, he didn't get angry that he had to make a second trip, phew! I was prepared to get a good scolding from my colleague later, to my surprise i didn't but was laugh by the rest instead. haha..cant believe my luck..!

looking forward tml, will be having different patients again and its really fun to see new faces every single day! YAY!! =D

Arggghhh...!!!
Tuesday, March 07, 2006 @ 10:44 PM

WHERE IS MY CHANEL EYE-LINER?!
arghhh...~!

i wanna cry out loud..it cost me 43bucks and i only used it ONCE!
WTF!
i believed i drop it when i was out.
and i dun think i misplaced it..

sobs..
i am angry with myself rite now.
WHY AM I SO CARELESS?!
Day 2
@ 9:02 PM

alright, Day 2 aint so bad..

today i was doing the same thing as yesterday, but this time i was more confident in the things i did, eg. filing, directing patients to their room and asked them to take their medical tests. The good thing today is there isn't alot of patients which means less annoying ppl to deal with.

still i not satisfied with my work and i wanna complain. there isn't much things for me to do and i have to CONSTANTLY ask for tasks coz i dun wanna sit on the desk while others are busy doing their job. i dun wan to be seen as a lazy bum who just come to work and daydream. in fact i wan to keep myself busy so that i can pass time quickly AND GO HOME!

i was quite worried at first, i dun wanna spend my 6 weeks doing admin so i asked my colleague if it was the case. PHEW! thank god it isn't, i'm gonna learn new things next week.

Right now, i really miss my job as a cashier in Guardian, a waitress in Haagen Dazs and Crown prince.

I dun mind the irritating supervisor in Guardian as long as i dun have to face all those documents on the desk everyday. i can check out new products on the shelves and recommend the sale items to the customers.

I hope to return back to the times when i worked in Haagen Dazs. I could see my fave dessert in this whole universe -->ice-cream and joke with my colleagues every now and then. I miss late night supper with the crew. Though the job is tiring but its one of the best jobs i have done.

I miss my frens in Crown Prince, everyone is always helping one another during work. I dun mind the soya sauce/drinks spilled on my skirt or when my hands are dirtied with the shark's fin conpoy as long as i enjoy wat i am doing during work. Now i'm not complaining about doing the same routines for the wedding dinners..sigh*

tml...
will be the same thing.
Filing, Key in patients' particulars, photocopying documents, picking up phone calls.
or just stare at the monitor or the plasma tv.



boring.
Day 1 of ITP
Monday, March 06, 2006 @ 9:08 PM

haiz, i am not looking forward to my job anymore after my first day at work today. To many ppl, my job may be quite slack and nothing much to do, but to me i find it really boring and its so hard to pass time. its not a job which i would consider interesting.

the first few hours was the worst coz monday morning will have alot of patients coming for cpf medical checkup. I have to key in the patient's particulars, print them and paste on their medical card, file the letters and find their old records before sending it to the doctors.

Until around 2 hrs later there are lesser patients, sometimes i have nothing to do and just sat down looking at the monitor or the plasma tv which was featuring the oscars then. i even saw the part where reese witherspoon was awarded best actress. (darn! should be felicity huffman wat!)























why oh why is Reese Witherspoon the winner?


**

after lunch was much better, there were less patients and i roughly got the idea what i am supposed to do. One of my colleagues, Suzie, treated us cake as it is her birthday today. Anyway, something happened later in the afternoon which totally PISSED ME OFF!

U see, i am suppose to refer the patients to a particular doctor, there are two doctors around: Dr Liu & Dr Chris Goh. Dr Liu normally would take a long time to do medical checkup for her patients while Dr Goh is totally opposite. Therefore the waiting list for Dr Liu was quite long and i was told to refer new patients to Dr Goh so that they won't have to wait too long.

however, Dr Goh was not very pleased with it and told me when i entered his office to place a new particulars on his desk, "why do u keep refering patients to me and not Dr Liu?"
(giving me the pissed-off face)
er...
i replied promptly, " coz the waiting list for Dr Liu is still quite long."
"She has been seeing the same patient for nearly 2 hrs!! I have been seeing new patients......"
" er..."
i just left.

stupid doctor! dont exaggerate can? where got alot of patients? u were smsing or surfing the net lor.. since u have nothing to do now, why don't u do wat u should do?
THIS IS YOUR BLOODY JOB K?!
U ARE A DOCTOR AND I CANT BELIEVE U SAID TT!
IDOIT.
call urself a professional doctor, pui!
wat a disgrace.
mos again

A night in MOS

We met up one last time before Audrey went for her overseas itp the following day. Didn't had much fun initially although i may seem to be having a great time dancing. I just dun like MOS r&b that night. Tts all, not going to post any thing in details.
