FREakiNg oUT...

survived the first week at nepean hospital... first 3 days was hospital orientation and only on thursday did I commenced observation in the rehab unit... both in and outpatients... and that was when I started to freak out... I have no idea what to do and what to expect... and the plan for next week is for me to spend some time in the acute wards... oh man... and I found out that my position was meant for a level 2 OT... seriously... I really hope for a miracle otherwise I really dunno what I am going to do... working in a hospital is really different... cos you are surrounded by people and the OTs all gather in the staffroom to eat during lunch... there is no table, you pretty much have to hold your lunch in your lap and eat...

and what else I found out... you have to buy your own birthday cake on your birthday... you have to pay for your courses... you have to use your own pens... you have to be responsible for cleaning up urine and poo if your patient suddenly lets go, not the nurses??!! *faints*

this decision to work in the hospital is not looking too smart at this stage... what have I gotten myself into??!!

WiSH mE GooD LuCk...

tuesday... we did manage to go to the zoo and it was only drizzling alittle when we were there so we managed to see most of the animals there, it only started to pour whilst we were waiting for the ferry... and after that, went for karaoke... now that bog echo has renovated, it has become quite cool with disco lights and touch screens... so we have decided to go to big echo instead of k mix...

went to the city to meet up with Alana and Nat for lunch at Lindt's... that was good but becos they only had their hour of lunchbreak, we could not spend more time together... but it was nice to be able to spend some time catching up with them...

highlight of the week... definitely the S.H.E concert... totally worth the money, better than Backstreet Boys and much much better than Jay Chou... they sang mostly older songs and there was interactions with the crowd as well... got some good pics and videos... still cannot believe that I got to see them in concert... it was unreal... really want to go to the Super Junior concert in Singapore in January 2011...

oh and I finally got my full driving licence on Wednesday... after 3 years of driving... so goodbye to red and green plates! one more day before a new challenge commences...

新的挑战。。。

this week can be considered a week of rest/slacking for me... last friday was a mad rush and a blur for me during the last 2 hours... was frantically doing everything at the same time... completing reports as much as I could and signing file notes... and Amber was nice enough to stay with me till 7pm that night and helping me clear stuff and tidy up my workstation... it was sad leaving and there were a few tears shed when I had to give a "speech" and when I read the card with everybody's well wishes...

did some shopping yesterday... planning to go to the zoo today, so hopefully the weather would be good enough to not rain... tomorrow, driving test in the morning and no plans yet... thursday, meeting Alana and Nat for lunch at Lindt's and dinner with the girls from work... friday... hanging out with prisy and then going to SHE concert...

still unsure if I am looking forward to starting work at Nepean... it would be like commencing a placement but this time, no supervisors and I am having to treat someone... that is one scary thought...

GooDBye...

last week at RSC... hmm... just trying to get through as much as stuff as I can... got to work around 8am and finishing around 6pm and it looks like it would be like this for the whole of this week... looking forward to the one week break next week for some R & R before starting a new chapter... went to the hospital last week to submit some paperwork and met some of the OTs working there, saw some familiar faces and was informed that there will be more familiar faces when I start... don't really know if that's a good or bad thing yet...

went to teppanyaki for a company dinner last Friday and I have to say that it was really enjoyable and I had alot of fun... although it was quite a waste of food, but it was really amusing watching others and myself catching food ie raw egg, omelette and bowl of fried rice... did something embarrassing as well, did not manage to catch the raw egg and it landed on my colleague sitting next to me, the egg went all over her bag, and to top it all off, I threw my bowl at her... everyone burst out laughing... definitely one of the better company functions I have been to...

decided to hold my farewell dinner at Max Brenner on Thursday so hopefully that will be fun as well...

nothing really much else going on atm, still have yet to study for the driving test... been hooked onto Boys over Flowers again, God knows why... still in Super Junior phase... and I heard that they are having a concert in Singapore, urrgghh and it's going to be expensive, but cannot go anyway

looking forward to S.H.E concert next week, will give you an update following the concert... I am hoping that it would be better than Jay Chou's...

WOrLd CuP FeVEr...

World Cup 2022, held in Qatar this time around, has been full of shocks and surprises... the underdogs are definitely Morroco and hopefully ...
