Graduation and swollen eyes


(credits to pam's blog. my phone is konked out.)

just in case you cant recognise me, im the one with the straight hair.
man. no more ICAs and assignments and eating north canteen food. as i sat in the hall i thought to myself its not too long ago that i was sitting at the same place for the freshmen orientation. dang i miss those days of fun.

now that im starting on a new chapter of my life (my dreary working life. my lack-of-social-life life..) i look back fondly at the memories of my poly days and thought to myself ....

if i could do it all over again i wouldn't change a thing.

ANYWAYS.... woke up this morning with swollen eyes (why oh why on my only off day.) which made me look like i did a double eye lid surgery on ONE lid.

anyways went to shop around coz its the great singapore sale (also known as the great shit sale, the grossly ugly clothes sale.. coz i couldn't find anything nice despite having my first real pay.) but ah, at least bought some striking underwear.

mud-ther is back from the middle east. lols she got me some really good dead sea hand cream. how thoughtful. she knows i wash my hands 1000 times a day.

watching Hell's Kitchen season two now. damn i like that gordon ramsey and his curses (you doughnut! come over here you F-ing doughnut) haha. i guess its good to see the professionalism that some people have for their jobs. though pet told me the chef doesn't actually close service if the chefs suck, its hard to believe anyone has to wait 2 whole hours for their food. i know if it was me i'd probably walk out of the restaurant after one hour. (such is the spoiled, pampered attitude of singaporeans eh.) but hey, its a good show worth watching. the winner actually gets a million dollars restaurant to head. no wonder they stay on despite the verbal and physical crap they get.
work starts tomorrow. dang i hate wasting my sundays.

oh yeh........ DAVID COOK IS THE NEW AMERICAN IDOL!!! YESSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!

graduation

i heard many wise sayings in this graduation

" by nursing without compassion and love, you are stripping away the essence of nursing."

"you can give without loving but you cannot love without giving."

i sat there in the auditorium and i thought to myself... how three years have passed. seemed like only yesterday i was sitting there with bad make up and the ugly nike t shirt that said woman driver ( i thought it was woman power so i bought it.) and doing silly games.

in a flash three years have passed and i can safely say that i came out an adult. full fledged. i never regretted my life in the three years there. i laughed and cried, played and skipped lectures, ate good and cheap food and used the gym as much as i could. most importantly, i made very good, very loyal friends who understand and accepted me (so are my legion pals too). they taught me many things (like kicking rubbish bins and how not to get caught wearing slippers in school.) haha.

it was emotional saying my nursing vow. it represented everything i hoped and wished that i could be. i know its hard but my vow made me want to try and be a better nurse.

most prob straightening my hair when i get my pay. its neat, fuss free and theres no need to blow it dry to get the style you want. man i want straight hair real bad.

no pics tho. com suck.

DAVID COOK IS THE NEW AMERICAN IDOL!!!! WOOOOO!!!! i want his album!!! ( i know its not out yet.:P)

hot hot hot in herre.

its a pissy hot sunday today ain't it.

watched your back as you walk away
with that kid in your arms
the stupid hat and the thunder thighs
that bitter taste in my mouth lingers

i heart sundays coz i don't have to wake up when the sun hasn't risen, when doctors don't look at my uniform and get so excited (coz they have someone to clear their trolley after they use it, not because they want my number) and i don't walk up that hill-like hill at outram park to get to my ward, all the time sweating in my pantsuit coz i don't like wearing a dress to work (unless i run out of uniforms to wear.)

that's why i heart sundays. coz after the next two sundays (which i will not be working yet) i might not have another sunday off till... after i retire. sundays off are sooo precious to nurses.

i feel so much emotions when i nurse my patients. anger, amusement, joy, sadness, humour and so on. tired i may be but i love coming to work. and as much as i don't ever want to leave my ward i still have to go in six months time. but until october comes, i cherish everyday i get to work here. betty is what they call me ( coz of my retro haircut.) but the family feeling i get is something i cannot find anywhere else.

so till the day HOT betty leaves for not so green pastures, please continue to pray for me so that i do not kill anyone.

saw the vid pet did for the recruitment activity. real nice! anyone who seriously wants to be interviewed please tell us!! and bring a friend!! im having a hard time finding friends in my church coz i don't have that many there. goodness. time to widen my social circle.

dinner at Holy Trinity later. 110 tables. my church can't even hit 30. ahhh population difference.

its me again at blogger

yes i admit. im quite a computer idiot. i can't do wordpress for nuts.

There is no comprehension
There is real isolation
There is so much destruction
What I want is a celebration

so anyways, i guess new career, new blog.

past two weeks has been the best honeymoon period of my life, considering that im not married. i sit in the lab all day (although admittedly, i don't have a passion for hard chairs but..) listen to lectures and sleep at leisure. i even get to eat three times!! how cool is that?

alas, all good things come to an end. and im really serious working in plastic.

but not for long though. i have been (ahem) randomly selected (i guess the person hates my name) to work in this special ward which is currently under renovation. so i guess i won't be staying in plastic for too long

there is no longer such a thing called sundays. its either you're on or you're off.

no more 9pm shows for me. i should start subscribing to mobtv or something.

everyday i wake up with butterflies in my stomach coz i don't know what's gonna happen, or who am i gonna take shit from. i guess that's the fun in it.
