One day, the king said that he wanted to give up his throne as he is dying soon. But there were 2 princes to pass his throne to. So he asked them to have a competition between themselves. He said, 'whoever reach the foot of the hill the LAST, will be the king.'. At this point of time, the 2 princes quickly hop onto the horses and rush to the foot of the hill. WHY??"

YAY finally 2 weeks of vacation starts now!!!
Today was the last day of attachment. I can say that the last 2 days were actually the fun-est days of attachment. I was posted to Bethany Methodist Nursing Home, the LOVE ward ^^. That's a male ward. All ah bei except for one. They are like kids sia haha. Really cute and naughty lol. I was quite surprised some of them didnt get married cause usually old people are married? Most of them are abandoned there, rarely will there be visitors.
One of the sister told me some of their relatives actually say if the patient died then inform them if not dont, even if they are sick or something. Why do these kind of people even exist? It is like a waste of time giving birth to these people. I believe they will have their retribution. If this is how you treat them, you will get it too, sooner or later.
Life is really very fragile. One patient shown me that. Cant type any info here so if interested then ask me la lol. Really miss the elderly there. Some of us decided to visit them again during the vacation. =) Once again i met another intelligent elderly. He knows ALOT of languages. He is actually an Eurasian.
One thing very sad about the home is that all of the elderly is like staying there until they eventually die. This is where they prepare them for death or something.
Me and my friend (in Love ward) gave some titles to the elderly lol. Got the "cutest", "naughtiest", "cleverest" and "pitiful-est". The ah gong who is very pitiful really made me teary. All of them are like my ah gong(s), never experienced having an ah gong before cause both of them died before I become sensible lol.
Morning played throwing ball with them, bowling and bingo haha. They called bingo "mango" haha. The cutest ah gong very quiet and clever, he knows how to play those game properly and all, and he really likes to eat biscuit haha (he can eat while playing bowling) =). The cleverest ah gong is really very hardworking, always wait at the entrance there for the towels to arrive and then fold them nicely =). He also taught us a lot of things about old times what they do and stuff like that.
I really had a great time with these people!!! Anyway tomorrow going to CCK polyclinic to take blood test for Hep B anitibody and then shopping time muahaha. Long time never go shop, so tomorrow is the day lol.
Wednesday went to HPB for attachment. Went to the place where there are a lot of stuffs that teaches us about healthcare bla bla. Dont wanna elaborate about the day. Just some pics can le haha.
 insane ppl behind =D  no. of us "tugging" mr stable~~
 big toothpaste & brush for?
 for BIG teeth!!
on the teeth!!!
Orchard Rd HAHA =.=  Can u spot 4 dinos? i cant T.T
And now is time to enjoy my vacation!!!! And for 4idoLs (except me and viv lol) GOOD LUCK for mid-years x)). Some pics of my cutie bro HAHA. You can say I am "lian di kuang" lol. But cant deny that he is CUTE!!
 *pout*
 Time to go sch O.o

Today last day at Toa Payoh Senior Citizen Center. I can say that I really enjoy myself for these 2 days. Starting to miss them sia. Today then know we actually shouldnt do anything except observing unless under supervision. But I rather we help out than just only observing la.
Got one ah bei he gave us a lot of brain teasers.Next entry then I type them out cause now just dont feel like doing that lol. Got 2 ah gongs whom really left me deep impressions cause their looks and actions are too cute and funny haha.
left=really cute right? right=hair stylo uh lol
Tomorrow going to HPB, finally a day to rest awhile haha. Get to meet classmates and coursemates again woohoo after near 2 weeks of "separation". Tired again, buaiz.

HAHA morning started my journey to Toa Payoh. It took about 1hr to reach there. Whenever I need to transfer bus, I will have to cross the road =x suay lol. Today had a super MEANINGFUL day. Wheel those elderly from the bottom floor to the 3rd storey where the Senior Citizen center is. It is not easy to wheel someone sia when there are a lot of people around who are also wheelchair-ed.
Take their BP, walk them around, physiotherapy for those really cant walk elderly, take food and drinks for them, transfer them from wherever to wherever, bring them to toilet, feed them bla bla. So much to do but so fun to do. I dont know how to describe but it really make me feel contented and happy.
For that moment, "thank you" seems to be so heartwarming. But there were sad times mainly due to their handicap. Most of them sit on wheelchairs and suffered from stroke. Different kinds of elderly show different attitudes. Some can be really paranoid. There was one elderly who really made me feel so helpless at that point of time. She couldnt speak words? only "ahh ahh". I didnt know what she wanted but eventually realised she wanted to go to the toilet but the staff there told me she had her diaper on so just leave her alone. I explained to her in hokkien, she understood but insisted on going to the toilet by producing the "ahh ahh" sound continually. She ahh until like she was going to cry. Can you imagine when you really need the toilet but you couldnt go cause you cant walk and the people around you didnt want to help you and you just have to do your business in sitting position and just like that. I was so "dunno what to do" man. But after that in the afternoon she was very cute? lol, she asked to walk her along the the bars. She actually walked in the morning le. When I helped her to button her shirt (the button always unbutton by itself), she said that "xie xie" when she seldom talk or rather difficult for her to speak words. Super HaPpY =).
This rehab center is just to take care of elderly in the day when their children are at work and a place to let them make friends or something. I cant imagine the nursing home that I am going to this thurs and Fri la. Elderly are sort of "abandoned" there and they live there like for the rest of their lives?
After that about 3 plus pm they started to go home one van by another. Pushed them down to first storey and into the van. Was really smiling like siao when I waved goodbye to them and they waved back =))). I think so far today was the most meaningful day I ever had. I think this kind of feeling only people around them will experience. So go be a nurse people haha. It is nevertheless the most meaningful job. That's what sister from Yishun polyclinic told us.
Tomorrow the last day there. Hope everything will be fine and I will have another enjoyable day. But it is quite tiring from all those standing, bending, supporting.
DINNER time~~~~ Ciao ^^

Nothing much to blog, just type abit =).
Morning as usual went for korean lesson, this time get to try the kimchi made by cher ^^. Very nice but salty lol. Then went to buy a cake for father, got 25% discount haha.
Night went out for dinner to celebrate Fathers' Day. Expensive sia lol. After that we went to Jurong Point to walk haha. Saw Amir there too =x. Then went home after that. Took out the cake, my father blow the candle and then cut the cake =.=. Everything was so happy and fine when somebody made my father unhappy. Work stuff. And my sister was giving that black face all the time cause my parents refuse to buy her a watch that cost 20 plus dollars. Come on she is only Pri 3 la. So young jiu liddat liao. Really think that when she is older she will become an ah lian sia. So everything ended up NOT HAPPY.
Tomorrow going to Toa Payoh polyclinic. KNS need to take 3 buses to reach there. Heng only for 2 days. Anyway still wanna wish my father and all fathers in the world a
HaPpY FaTheRs' daY!!

Today was the last day of the polyclinic attachment. Quite sad about it cause cant see the same people again or not the the time being. Went to Women's Health room today. Didnt manage to see Pap smear but saw it on the cd. Learnt a lot of stuffs about women stuffs -.-. Did our presentation and GOM quizzes. Nothing much happened just that people getting lamer o.O haha and fun-er. Was told by shakila that MIC common test result is up on mel. I scored 41/50 for it but initially I mistaken the result for 28 LA. Scare me to hell. Wasnt happy with the score. Wanted to score an AD for it. Blame it on my stupidness. Felt abit setback =.=. I suddenly wanted everything to be perfect, i meant my result lol, ever since I started studying in poly zzz. Maybe cause it had always been impossible to achieve that in RV lol.
Wanted to meet up with 4i during their hols but I too busy sia with all the attachment and stuffs. Finally it is weekend and i get to rest as much as i can. Today after attachment went to Bp plaza to buy manga =). Bought 3 of them and a dbsk new poster!! Saw the new photobook of dbsk but it cost 31.90. Need time to save $ first haha.
Just now saw DBSK advertisment for Five in Black, went crazy because of that. Mum scolded me for screaming haha. Cant blame me right. I just love them ^^. If I cant get to see their concert before I die, I will be full of regrets. Say I crazy also nevermind, that's life man. To aim for something, take an interest in something, do crazy things.
I getting to love my job more ^^. Nurses 'wan sui'! haha. 1 month plus more to reach nurses' day =). Sunday fathers' day sia.
Really thanks to the nurses in Yishun Polyclinic who made the attachment fun and of cause the other 5 student nurses with me =))). Hope to see you guys again in school x)). 4idoLs also man, hope to see you guys before your hols end. My bro is having a fever, hope he recover soon!!!
Time for relaxation after those tiring days ^^.

12/6/07:
2nd day of attachment was super FUN cause I finally met babies!!!!! I saw 12 babies (2 twins), 3 toddlers and 3 children?(3 and 4 years old). Saw the babies taking immunizations, really sad to see them cry -.-. Found out about the 2 compulsory injections for babies, BCG is not included wor haha. It is Diphtheria and Measles. Anyway BCG is to prevent against tuberculosis x). Also learnt about the national childhood immunisation programme. All the babies were so bubbly and cute, just feel like pinching their cheeks haha. The youngest baby I saw is only 2 DAYS old =), cool right muahaha. He is so small that it seems like only 1 hand is needed to carry him lol.
Went to a talk on Gaut(swelling of the joint) after lunch but in the end end up dozing off lol cause the topic is quite profound and not really interesting lol. After that went to Developmental assessment room. There was where I saw the children and 1 toddler haha. Children at age of 9 months, 3 yrs old and 4 yrs old are required to go for test. Only 4 patients during that 2 and a half hours. Stone at the room when there are no patient. The staff nurse in that room is quite lame. She asked each of us what age do we think she is when either one of us go to her room. All the SAME stuffs sia. Even what she did was the same -.-. Lame haha.
13/6/07:
Went to Care manager room whereby they counsel mostly diabetic patients to take note of their diet and how they should improve on it. Morning was very busy so I was just standing there 'eavesdropping' on what the nurses says. Nothing much in that room but there was one patient whose husband was a very funny a cute person. He kept on joking and smiling to me haha.
Afternoon went to Bukit Batok polyclinic for the Gallery of Memories. Met some other students there too. Like long time no see sia lol. All of us divided up the work of copying the display board or whatever then home sweet home haha. Finally a day of early dismissal. Reached home, sleep~
14/6/07:
Went to Diabetic retina programme room and Diabetic foot screening in the morning. Have you wonder what is the color of the internal of the eyeball? It is orange colour!!! Interesting mannn. For people who have went for cataract removal the colour of the internal of the eyeball is actually translucent. Learnt how to record down the eyesight test result, finally know what the nurses wrote on the health booklet haha.
Afternoon went to Opportunistic health screening room. Basically for patients with no medical conditions o.O haha. There are actually 3 kinds of cholesterol. 2 of them are bad cholesterol and the other one is good cholesterol. The staff nurse talked a lot to us and it was enjoyable la, dont prefer those who dont like to talk one lol. Halfway through went to the immunisation room to see BCG injection for a baby. Usually BCG is given at birth unless the baby is below 2.2kg. The baby was crying like mad, can feel the heart pain when you saw the process. After that that baby had a Hep B jab too. BCG was injected below the skin whereas Hep B is injected into the muscles. Cool sia different types of injections. After that went home at 4.30pm.
Tomorrow last day of polyclinic attachment!

FIRST day of attachment was tiring. Its wasnt due to boredom of course but cause I have been standing all the time even when the staff nurse asked me to take a seat and rest. Stubborn o.O but is paiseh la haha. Reached yishun at about 7.20am -.- like what the hell I meeting my friend at 7.50am la. Heng she was early too, in fact all the 6 of us were early cause today 1st day uh =). Get to know 3 new people from P09 =).
Reached YP and met the nurse manager and officer. They were very friendly and funny lol. Nurse officer Roja presented to us a lot of stuffs about Healthcare in YP and of course in SG. After that she took us for tour round YP. It is actually not very big just that we can get lost easily as there are quite a few pathways to walk and all the rooms look the same haha.
Then the 6 of us went to our respective assigned rooms. I went to the treatment room x). Saw different kinds of patients and diagnosis. That room also helps to control tuberculosis o.O by supervising patient to eat medication on each sheduled date usually once 2 days. Saw the equipment that medical workers wore during the SARS period. It looks like a machine sia haha with big tubings and 2 circular air filters haha. Then went for lunch at 1pm.
After lunch went to another assigned room. This time I went to the dressing room where patients get their wounds dressed -.-. This room is super interesting. Different kinds of wounds. Saw how they remove stitches and washing and dressing of wounds. I helped one patient to remove the plaster from his abdominal region. I was super nervous cause dont know what kind of wound is it and it is my 1st time doing this sia =x. The nurses in the room were like using malay language the whole time when one of them is actually a chinese. They ask me go learn malay cause it is one of the most important languages in SG. So far havent see any child patient but will get to see babies when I go to the woman's health room muahaha.
Actually more excited about nusing home attachment cause get to interact with elderly, help them do stuffs, hope I get to feed them x). Cant wait for vacation!!!! I wanna travel!!! lol. Tired, resting time =).

THEN i will have my VACATION!!! 1st 5 days were posted to YISHUN polyclinic =( so far. Following 2 days is Toa Payoh senior citizen center and then 1 day at health promotion board (outram) and finally the last 2 days at Bethany Methodist Nursing Home (It is near CCK!! =D), finally somewhere near my house -.-.
'Today' woke up at 12pm!! It has been quite long since I woke up late haix. There is GL orientation at 6pm at ECP. Met Shakila and CPR at JE then we go BEDOK together. 3 of us were like talking about not wanting to go cause need to pay $10 somemore lol and then very tired. Halfway through, it rained lol. We were so set on not going anymore if it rains. BUT in the end the rain stopped.
Met Amy, Nages and Melissa at bedok mrt and off we go to ecp. We missed the actual bus-stop that we should alight which resulted in walking a whole distance of dunno how many kilometres. From B pit to F pit. We spent about 1 hr walking man. We saw ALOT of cats -.- and there was this rooster among them HAHA.
.JPG) Finally reached F. =S So bbq lor lol. After some time the seniors decide to play ice breaker games. Double Whacko and eletrons? Ran alot cause of that electron thingy haha. Like long time never run =.=. Had quite alot of fun and made new friends. Went home at about 1030. Saw two cats sleeping, both facing the opposite side, so kawaii! But also saw a big beetle, yucks! 8 of us took the train together and we gave our group a name lol called 'The AID'. It is not linked to aids lol. Actually it was the eggs but since we are nurses, it shall be AID. =) I was the one who thought of it muahaha. Creative me sia haha.
 The 2 cats =) 
BEETLE!
Boarded the train to cck and it was already 12am =.= We like spent alot of time travelling back sia -.- Was worried that it was over the operating hours of the LRT. Luckily no la. Saw my cousin on the LRT. 1 year never see him cause New Year never met him. Long time never talk to him sia haha. He entering army at the end of the year. Botak =).
Reached home at 1230. Mum was waiting for me sia =). She was telling me about my brother that when they brought him home from my aunt's house, he was looking and asking for me. I suddenly felt so guilty man. I am such a kns sis. My brother was sleeping soundly on the bed xD Very weird to type it out here? haha. Just a small small human =), so cute. Tomorrow need to take care of my brother cause my parents going out for wedding dinner. Good chance to amend the time i missed spending with my brother hees.

And my sister was giving that black face all the time cause my parents refuse to buy her a watch that cost 20 plus dollars. Come on she is only Pri 3 la. So young jiu liddat liao. Really think that when she is older she will become an ah lian sia. So everything ended up NOT HAPPY.

Today was the last day of the polyclinic attachment. Quite sad about it cause cant see the same people again or not the the time being. Went to Women's Health room today. Didnt manage to see Pap smear but saw it on the cd. Learnt a lot of stuffs about women stuffs -.-. Did our presentation and GOM quizzes. Nothing much happened just that people getting lamer o.O haha and fun-er. Was told by shakila that MIC common test result is up on mel. I scored 41/50 for it but initially I mistaken the result for 28 LA. Scare me to hell. Wasnt happy with the score. Wanted to score an AD for it. Blame it on my stupidness. Felt abit setback =.=. I suddenly wanted everything to be perfect, i meant my result lol, ever since I started studying in poly zzz. Maybe cause it had always been impossible to achieve that in RV lol.
Wanted to meet up with 4i during their hols but I too busy sia with all the attachment and stuffs. Finally it is weekend and i get to rest as much as i can. Today after attachment went to Bp plaza to buy manga =). Bought 3 of them and a dbsk new poster!! Saw the new photobook of dbsk but it cost 31.90. Need time to save $ first haha.
Just now saw DBSK advertisment for Five in Black, went crazy because of that. Mum scolded me for screaming haha. Cant blame me right. I just love them ^^. If I cant get to see their concert before I die, I will be full of regrets. Say I crazy also nevermind, that's life man. To aim for something, take an interest in something, do crazy things.
I getting to love my job more ^^. Nurses 'wan sui'! haha. 1 month plus more to reach nurses' day =). Sunday fathers' day sia.
Really thanks to the nurses in Yishun Polyclinic who made the attachment fun and of cause the other 5 student nurses with me =))). Hope to see you guys again in school x)). 4idoLs also man, hope to see you guys before your hols end. My bro is having a fever, hope he recover soon!!!

2nd day of attachment was super FUN cause I finally met babies!!!!! I saw 12 babies (2 twins), 3 toddlers and 3 children?(3 and 4 years old). Saw the babies taking immunizations, really sad to see them cry -.-. Found out about the 2 compulsory injections for babies, BCG is not included wor haha. It is Diphtheria and Measles. Anyway BCG is to prevent against tuberculosis x). Also learnt about the national childhood immunisation programme. All the babies were so bubbly and cute, just feel like pinching their cheeks haha. The youngest baby I saw is only 2 DAYS old =), cool right muahaha. He is so small that it seems like only 1 hand is needed to carry him lol.
Went to a talk on Gaut(swelling of the joint) after lunch but in the end end up dozing off lol cause the topic is quite profound and not really interesting lol. After that went to Developmental assessment room. There was where I saw the children and 1 toddler haha. Children at age of 9 months, 3 yrs old and 4 yrs old are required to go for test. Only 4 patients during that 2 and a half hours. Stone at the room when there are no patient. The staff nurse in that room is quite lame. She asked each of us what age do we think she is when either one of us go to her room. All the SAME stuffs sia. Even what she did was the same -.-. Lame haha.
13/6/07:
Went to Care manager room whereby they counsel mostly diabetic patients to take note of their diet and how they should improve on it. Morning was very busy so I was just standing there 'eavesdropping' on what the nurses says. Nothing much in that room but there was one patient whose husband was a very funny a cute person. He kept on joking and smiling to me haha.
Afternoon went to Bukit Batok polyclinic for the Gallery of Memories. Met some other students there too. Like long time no see sia lol. All of us divided up the work of copying the display board or whatever then home sweet home haha. Finally a day of early dismissal. Reached home, sleep~
14/6/07:
Went to Diabetic retina programme room and Diabetic foot screening in the morning. Have you wonder what is the color of the internal of the eyeball? It is orange colour!!! Interesting mannn. For people who have went for cataract removal the colour of the internal of the eyeball is actually translucent. Learnt how to record down the eyesight test result, finally know what the nurses wrote on the health booklet haha.
Afternoon went to Opportunistic health screening room. Basically for patients with no medical conditions o.O haha. There are actually 3 kinds of cholesterol. 2 of them are bad cholesterol and the other one is good cholesterol. The staff nurse talked a lot to us and it was enjoyable la, dont prefer those who dont like to talk one lol. Halfway through went to the immunisation room to see BCG injection for a baby. Usually BCG is given at birth unless the baby is below 2.2kg. The baby was crying like mad, can feel the heart pain when you saw the process. After that that baby had a Hep B jab too. BCG was injected below the skin whereas Hep B is injected into the muscles. Cool sia different types of injections. After that went home at 4.30pm.
Tomorrow last day of polyclinic attachment!

FIRST day of attachment was tiring. Its wasnt due to boredom of course but cause I have been standing all the time even when the staff nurse asked me to take a seat and rest. Stubborn o.O but is paiseh la haha. Reached yishun at about 7.20am -.- like what the hell I meeting my friend at 7.50am la. Heng she was early too, in fact all the 6 of us were early cause today 1st day uh =). Get to know 3 new people from P09 =).
Reached YP and met the nurse manager and officer. They were very friendly and funny lol. Nurse officer Roja presented to us a lot of stuffs about Healthcare in YP and of course in SG. After that she took us for tour round YP. It is actually not very big just that we can get lost easily as there are quite a few pathways to walk and all the rooms look the same haha.
Then the 6 of us went to our respective assigned rooms. I went to the treatment room x). Saw different kinds of patients and diagnosis. That room also helps to control tuberculosis o.O by supervising patient to eat medication on each sheduled date usually once 2 days. Saw the equipment that medical workers wore during the SARS period. It looks like a machine sia haha with big tubings and 2 circular air filters haha. Then went for lunch at 1pm.
After lunch went to another assigned room. This time I went to the dressing room where patients get their wounds dressed -.-. This room is super interesting. Different kinds of wounds. Saw how they remove stitches and washing and dressing of wounds. I helped one patient to remove the plaster from his abdominal region. I was super nervous cause dont know what kind of wound is it and it is my 1st time doing this sia =x. The nurses in the room were like using malay language the whole time when one of them is actually a chinese. They ask me go learn malay cause it is one of the most important languages in SG. So far havent see any child patient but will get to see babies when I go to the woman's health room muahaha.
Actually more excited about nusing home attachment cause get to interact with elderly, help them do stuffs, hope I get to feed them x). Cant wait for vacation!!!! I wanna travel!!! lol. Tired, resting time =).

Following 2 days is Toa Payoh senior citizen center and then 1 day at health promotion board (outram) and finally the last 2 days at Bethany Methodist Nursing Home (It is near CCK!! =D), finally somewhere near my house -.-.
'Today' woke up at 12pm!! It has been quite long since I woke up late haix. There is GL orientation at 6pm at ECP. Met Shakila and CPR at JE then we go BEDOK together. 3 of us were like talking about not wanting to go cause need to pay $10 somemore lol and then very tired. Halfway through, it rained lol. We were so set on not going anymore if it rains. BUT in the end the rain stopped.
Met Amy, Nages and Melissa at bedok mrt and off we go to ecp. We missed the actual bus-stop that we should alight which resulted in walking a whole distance of dunno how many kilometres. From B pit to F pit. We spent about 1 hr walking man. We saw ALOT of cats -.- and there was this rooster among them HAHA.
Finally reached F. =S So bbq lor lol. After some time the seniors decide to play ice breaker games. Double Whacko and eletrons? Ran alot cause of that electron thingy haha. Like long time never run =.=. Had quite alot of fun and made new friends. Went home at about 1030. Saw two cats sleeping, both facing the opposite side, so kawaii! But also saw a big beetle, yucks! 8 of us took the train together and we gave our group a name lol called 'The AID'. It is not linked to aids lol. Actually it was the eggs but since we are nurses, it shall be AID. =) I was the one who thought of it muahaha. Creative me sia haha.
The 2 cats =)
BEETLE!
Boarded the train to cck and it was already 12am =.= We like spent alot of time travelling back sia -.- Was worried that it was over the operating hours of the LRT. Luckily no la. Saw my cousin on the LRT. 1 year never see him cause New Year never met him. Long time never talk to him sia haha. He entering army at the end of the year. Botak =).
Reached home at 1230. Mum was waiting for me sia =). She was telling me about my brother that when they brought him home from my aunt's house, he was looking and asking for me. I suddenly felt so guilty man. I am such a kns sis. My brother was sleeping soundly on the bed xD Very weird to type it out here? haha. Just a small small human =), so cute. Tomorrow need to take care of my brother cause my parents going out for wedding dinner. Good chance to amend the time i missed spending with my brother hees.
