It's mY FaV TiMe Of The YeAR soOn...

on my July ADO today... not doing anything exciting... maybe going to watch Spiderman later... most of the paperwork for the property has been completed at this stage, so pretty much now waiting to do the pre-settlement inspection and settlement date on 14 Aug... most probably nainai and mum also coming end of Aug with papa, so it will be quite "热闹”。。。 

been watching a few Korean dramas recently... the next drama I watched was Coffee Prince, after watching it, I thought yes it's funny and cute but... it did not live up to the hype it was back then... but since I watched Biscuit Teacher, I am now in a Gong Yoo phase... haha... after Coffee Prince, I moved onto Big, although the show has yet to complete, I am again sucked into starting a drama when it's not finished, alamak what's new... it's ending this week, it's not bad, but as with all the other fans out there, I just don't know how they are planning to end this drama, cos it's quite complicated... it will probably be a good ending, but I don't know how good... moving on, I watched and finished Dal Ja's Spring yesterday... actually even though the reviews said it was good, which was the reason I downloaded the show in the first place, I did not have high expectations of it, but it actually turned out better than I expected, the female lead is funny... 

work wise... cancer care did an inservice that day and Kate presented on her experience in cancer care for the past year... it was actually quite insightful and personally, scary for me, I just have a vision of me spending most of my time in cancer care crying and thinking of my patients who are dying... I think knowing how to cope in that environment would probably be key for me, and before the inservice, I was actually more worried abt whether my lack of knowledge in home mods was going to be the biggest issue...

衰人走开。。。

Friday the 13th, this day and date has never bothered me before until today...

at work, clashed with this reg twice already, and one of my old confused patients grabbed me and tried to kiss me, this was the first time I actually felt scared since working in aged care, the other times were when I was still on MRT, when I had violent psychotic patients, luckily I managed to release his grip on me, and redirected him back to bed, and the patient still kept asking me to go closer to him whilst in bed... I documented the incident in the file, but don't really know who to tell at the time, and nothing bad really happened thankfully... maybe speak to Deanna or Collette if she does come back next week... 

and then pong rang whilst I was driving home, telling me she failed another subject again... really don't know what to do for her, not that she did not work hard, pongie really has to think what she wants to do now, otherwise it's going to be a waste of time and money... 

the unit, the annoying conveyancer still has yet to respond to me about the certified copy of the contract, and now received an email from the bank asking me to submit the application urgently... I am just going to mail the application tomorrow and hopefully they will accept the documents... now, the conveyancer is asking for a cheque for the stamp duty and it has to be bank cheque, which means it's going to take me another week to organize this... this is so painful...

called home this evening, and mum told us nainai had a fall this morning, apparently she felt dizzy and fell, apparently did not blackout, and when she tried to stand, she felt dizzy again and fell again, and the spoon hit her eyebrow, and she decided to use a hard boil egg to massage the bruise... and of course, my stubborn grandma waited until mum arrives home in the evening before telling anybody... now they are on their way to the GP clinic, hopefully everything's ok, no head injury, no broken bones...

out of boredom, I started looking up nice korean dramas, and downloaded a few... first up, was this drama called biscuit teacher and star candy, it's pretty old, 2005, but I really liked the show... highly recommend this drama, 10/10, rewatch value is 10/10 too... I was so sucked in by this drama last weekend, that all I did during the weekend was watch the show... did not even feel like going to the movies to watch snow white and the huntsman but no choice, the tickets were bought already... anyway, after the movie, we had earlier planned to go eastwood for dinner, so we headed there, but the shanghai restaurant was so crowded and it was freezing cold that night, and I was so sleep-deprived and anxious to continue my drama, that I behaved really badly that night... and prisy got angry at me, until now, we are barely speaking to each other... 

anyway, finally finished that drama, and next was this other drama called 9 end 2 outs, just finished it, and it was alright, probably a 5/10, probably not a show I would be rewatching though...

CHangEs...

officially in the middle of winter... it is freezing especially in the mornings, hyungie's dashboard actually showed a snowing symbol one day and the temps outside was 3 degrees... 

work wise... 3 people are leaving this month, and Collette is only back 3 days/week, so Deanna will only cover her days, which means when Julia rotates, I will be on my own on Mondays and Weds... fun times... and it's not only OTs that are short-staffed, PT and SW are too... and rotation is going to be delayed till 8 Oct... not that I mind... there was also some talk about including community as one of the rotations which will be good, if it really does get included, I may consider staying... 

breaking news, we have bought the unit at Waitara, contracts have been exchanged, deposit paid, settlement date is 14 Aug... now the paperwork for the mortgage loan is the thing that's driving me nuts, have to get a witness, get them certified, stuff that I don't understand... and the broker is away on leave, so I can't ask her... hopefully these will be sorted, and apparently there is a pre-settlement inspection approx a week prior to settlement, and after that, we have to contact the building manager informing them we are moving in and that we would like to paint the place... so hopefully, we can get that sorted and painting completes prior to papa coming, so when he does come, he can help with the moving, the fixing of things and the buying of furniture... initially I thought we could paint the place ourselves, so I signed us up for the free DIY classes, but after going, we realised that the job is too difficult, so we will be paying for someone to do it... so if everything goes according to plan, we will be moving in Sept... so pretty much, I think my birthday this year will be spent working on the place and moving...

other than that, not much exciting news or shows, rewatching shows until the korean shows complete airing...

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 ...
