friends of NR0403, we may be separate to different areas to take care of the sick but always remember that we are there for our patients.. only we can make a big different in their life.. Nv forget the reason why we join nursing at the first place and the self joy in us when we see our patients walk out of the hospital with a big smile on their face.. maintain our "high" spirit!!!!

Many thanks for the encouragement...

PERCEPTIONS

Girls drink to think back about the guy
Guys drink to forget about the girl

When girls are in love, they become pretty
When guys are in love, they become poor

Girls can forgive but cannot forget
Guys can forget but cannot forgive

Girls care the most about the quality of love
Guys care the most about the quantity of love

Girls break-up when they feel the feeling of separation from her man
Guys break-up when they feel love from another girl

Girls feel curiosity towards guys who are interested in her
Guys feel curiosity towards all girls

When girls are heartbroken, they try to find his characteristics from another guy
When guys are heartbroken, they try to forget about the girl by going out with another girl

Girls wish to be his last loveGuys wish to be her first love
Women are nothing but trouble Men are nothing but trouble seekers

haha.. Qing wei.. i took copy from ur blog cos i find it interesting and would like to share it with everyone.. hope u dun mind! if u do, charge those who read!!!!

"pre-PRCP symptom"

Dear Blog,
after weeks and weeks of long waiting,the PRCP attachment venue and time is finally out.. it was a painful period of time when everyone alr know where they are going execpt for SGH students, i guess there are too many of us that why there is a delay in releasing the depts.. nevertheless, it is FINALLY out!

where will i be going?
Ans: A & E(very first batch to go there for PRCP!)

Am i happy?
Ans: Yes (It is one of my choice!!!)
No (my usual attachment group are not with me! losin them days after days!)

Well, frankly speaking, my feeling are really hard to describe now and i finally understand the real meaning of "pre-PRCP symptom"...Lets just state that every student nurses have to go thru this phase.. i learnt something new today and would wish to share it with everyone: "If i could survive this time round, i would become stronger the next time round"

To all my nursin friends who happen to be reading now, for the next 6 weeks, things may not go well as wat we expected and we do not have each other to encourage at the end of the day but bear in mind, we have come so far and the path to success is just 6 weeks away! hang on it there! be stronger and get survive this time round!

~encouragement is all i need now~

~otc~exam~300~

Dear blog,

~OTC~

Last sunday(18/3/07) was the second theoy phase for the otc. We, as instructors, had so much fun in the brigade room.. all these began with Yau Leung sir(Our DM for o3 batch:my batch) who bring out the 03 OTC pictures with our innocent faces in it.. well, at least it brighten up everyones' day rite? haha..

Looking at the trainees during PT time, i cant help but think back of my days in OTC as a trainee.. the days was really tough for me back then, heavy loads such as O level(SARS period), OTC(1 year due to SARS), parents, Corp.. thank god, i manage to survive in the tough trainin and passed out successfully to be an officer.. alrite back to the current trainees, should i say it wasnt their luck ba.. this year committee are make up of mostly guys(pls note that most of the guys here are train in OCS in army!!!) with just 7 females instructors.. the PT was really a 'killer" one! from where i was standing, i could see all the sufferin faces in the trainees.. omg, i feel like i am in the army man.. even the guys are shiverin from the PT, can u imagin the gers doin the same things?

Well, i must say that this PT is not a bully session but our aim is to train them physically and the most importantly is to bring them close as a course.. want them to encourage each other (just like my batch) and i believe we do achieve wat we want!!! way to go.. committee!~

~Exam~

Omg! this sems only got two paper but this 2 paper seem to be killin me alot.. have been eatin alot of chocolate to keep me going.. help... ~tough time dun last, tough man do!!! will always remember this! thanks alot Yau Leung sir!~

~300~

went to catch 300 with kelvin last sat.. although it was a super bloody show.. somehow or rather i do enjoy the show, ya.. i agree all guys should watch this!!! thanks mates for promotin this show to me.. :)

Alrite shall stop here now!

busy weekend

Dearest blog,
i finally find back the feelin which i kinda of lost for sjab.. let me explain..
First aid competition is always the busiest event for Zone 6.. this year is no different(esp all junior involve and the chairman is a ger from my batch..more work to do!) as usual, last min work and arrangement is required.. this also include walkin from HQ to bugis(we walked total of 3x man... to n fro..) and that day we stayed in HQ till 2am.. wait a min, the bonding and the hardwork did help me find back the feelin.. izzit? well.. somehow or rather, i feel it is worth man..
~Win a goal to all committee members!~

But overall, this weekend was really a tiring one:
fri--> stayed in HQ till 2am(last min work and arrangement required)
Sat--> First aid com( wake up @7.30am, 9am-7pm, reach home @ 11pm,slept @2am to prepare for otc tmr)
sun--> OTC (wake up at 5.30am, 7.30am-7pm, fall into coma when reach home @ 11pm)

BUT, i enjoyed what i am going thru even with the nick call "ms panda" haha..

Got injury this time round, went back home with a swollen n painful ankle.. dunno what is the cause of it! didnt fall or sprain it.. just turn out to be swollen and painful! arrg.. bed and home bound for next few days.. ~help~

well, there are also disappointment that i am facin durin the weekend.. shall not talk much in here.. but i choose to believe that u guys dun meant to hurt me but just that u guys dunno how to tell me..

gotta study... exam next week..

~Last week of school~emotional week?

Dearest blog,

Sittin here, in front in my com, thinking of the events that had happened for the past few days.. everything seem to be moving very fast.. esp when the tot of leaving school and entering working life(3 yrs pass so fast!) Everyone seem to be so emotional in school.. photos taking everywhere.. hugging and many more.. i hate this feeling alot, but what can i do? when the clock turn 11am tommorow.. our school life is over and all of us will be going to the respective hospital for our PRCP..

shall not be emotional in here.. :)

1. Upon grad, work in SGH for the next 3 yrs.. (to gain experience)

2. Go oversea to take my degree with Hema!

3. Come back to SGH and be clinical instructor..(will go for education line..)

Lastly before i end this update, i would like to say some words to the following:
