~ TIRED!! ~ 11:31:00 pm

Just one word to describe my day... T-I-R-E-D...

Left home at about 8.30am today to head down to Singapore Expo for the NHG Nurses' Day Celebration... To be honest, I wished that I had not went for it... The whole thing was kinda boring, unlike the Nurses' Day Celebration @ TTSH on Tuesday and Wednesday... But since Eliza had to go for it and she had to work for the PM shift, I decided to go along too... Anyway, thank goodness for the free transport provided by TTSH... Otherwise, I really wouldn't go for it... AT ALL...

My day at work? I didn't know that working on a Sunday can be quite peaceful and a little of freedom... Other than the large number of relatives, it was quite nice... Yeah, I enjoyed it... Freedom? Cuz there were no doctors around... So no one to bug you to take this and that and no need to fight for clinical charts and Inpatient Medication Record (IMR)... And what's more, I did an ECG all by myself... Yeah, with no one to supervise me... Thankfully, the SSN on shift with me, gave all the trust she had in me... *Phew*... Try that on a weekday... The doctors will be the one who will do the ECG... And yes, I left the ward only at 10.20pm according to ward clock... Stayed behind to help out in some areas to prepare for the JCI this coming week...

TTSH will be going through the JCI audit from 1st to 5th August... So all the best to my ward staff!! Although we won't be involved in it but I'm really feeling the stress from them... Anyway, GOOD LUCK TTSH!!

~ To The Person I Love The Most... *HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!* ~ 10:54:00 pm

Honestly, I am feeling extremely tired and totally lazy to blog but due to my unconditioned love for this person, I decided to do so...

The person whom I have lived with for my entire 20 years in this world...
The person who understood what I was going through...
The person who stood by me when I needed someone to lean on...
The person who would lend a pair of listening ears when I needed someone to talk to...
The person who would listen when I needed to grumble...
The person who would listen to the secrets that I keep away from my parents...

Although sometimes this person can be so irritating to me, but nevertheless, my love for this person proves bigger than anything else in this world... So much so that even though I was on the afternoon shift today, I rushed to find any opened bakery just to get any cake for her after work...

And this person is none other than...

My One & Only Sister... Sorry for her sleepy face... *Hehe*

Anyway, I dedicate this entry specially for her on her birthday...

HAPPY 29TH BIRTHDAY KAKAK!! LOVE YOU ALWAYS!! *HUGS*

~ It's a REAL World out there... ~ 8:06:00 pm

Welcome to the REAL world, Nadiah... You finally know what it is like to be in the working world... Well, nothing is a bed of roses... If you think it is, dream on!!

*Sigh*... Yup... That was my subconscious mind alerting me... Now that I'm working as a full-time staff and NOT a student on attachment anymore, I should be more aware of things around and surrounding me... And one more thing... Don't EVER take things for granted... Yeah, I've learnt my lesson, only today...

Was on morning shift today... Since we've just graduated, we are assigned to do junior work which is AN's role... I was paired up with one of the SAN in the ward on the male side... Alright, I'm totally fine with the fact that I was paired up with her... BUT I'm not fine with the fact that she totally pushed the checking of the CSSD items to me when I know nuts about it... In fact, she was kinda annoyed when I told her that I was unsure how to go about... The least she could do was to demonstrate once to me... *Urgghh*... Anyway, I just did as I was told... Cuz I can't say 'NO' right?

Most of the things that we did took longer than usual such as turning of patients, parameter rounds and updating of the clinical charts... And she practically pushed all the 10am parameter rounds and updating of the clinical charts to me while she went to order diet for the patients which is quite a simple task... Okay, I shall not grumble about this cuz I told her that I could manage it... But yes, I did struggle to complete them cuz there were 12 parameters to be done and 18 clinical charts to be updated... And yes, I admit that I was SLOW...

By the time I completed updating all the charts, we had to start the second turning round... Thankfully, the two SNs on duty on my side, one of whom is my preceptor, were willing to lend the extra hand when the SAN went to send one of the patients down for some procedure and hence, going for her break without informing me... Not one, but almost all of my colleagues in the ward, including my ward Sister, noticed that I was stressed due to the "I AM STRESSED" look on my face...

A couple of times my SNs tried to get me to go for my break but I profusely refused because I have not completed my work yet... And it seems that it was not paid off... Yes, I was scolded by the SAN because I did not collect the clean CSSD items from the AGV... HELLO!! I already told her that I was not sure about the CSSD items and what time the AGV will arrive cuz no one have briefed us about the AGV timing... And yet, I got a scolding from her... Never mind... I shall ignore that... Thank goodness one of the ANs taught me on what I should do while I was in the tearoom having a short break... And yeah, many people had asked me whether I had went for my break... Sounds like they are concerned but maybe they are just being 'kaypoh'... *Heh*...

Even after my shift, which was supposed to end at 2.30pm, I was still pacing up and down the ward to finish up my stuff... Only really managed to settle down at 3.20pm... Totally fine with that cuz eventually, I stayed on till 4pm to go through my checklist with my preceptor...

Okay... Enough about my 'bad' day... On a brighter scale, there were some events that would be fun to share with...

Had this Thai patient who was involved in an RTA... Anyway, this patient of mine could not communicate in English cuz he knew limited words so we had no choice but to show hand signs or act out certain actions... Example, yesterday when we had to assess his pain score, I ended up saying, "Got any ouch, ouch, ouch?"... *Haha*... Well, he started laughing so we deduced that he had no pain... *Hehe*... And so, he was discharged today and guess what?? Suddenly he started talking in Mandarin!! Oh gosh!! I did get quite a big shock... *Haha*... Honestly, I did not anticipate that coming... So I started to converse with him in Mandarin although my command of Mandarin wasn't good either... Found out that he had worked in Taiwan before for 3 years and so, that explains... *Haha*...

Well, at least thinking of that made me smile... And so, today's lessons are:
1) Work is not as easy as you think...
2) Must learn to work at a faster pace...
3) Don't wait for others to start... Must learn to initiate...
4) Don't take things for granted, assuming that all work is done...
5) When people scold you, accept it as a constructive criticism and from there, you will learn & change... Don't take it too hard...
6) Please... Try to converse with your patients in any language until you know what language they are able to converse in... *Haha... Dumb*

~ I Miss Someone ~ 9:09:00 pm

I just missed her...
I missed her voice and the way she talked... Just like a machine gun...
I missed the way she walked... Don't know what she's chasing after...
I missed the way she does her work... SUPER fast...
I missed the words she said to me, "Why you laugh? I look like a clown meh?"... Cuz I would laugh at her each time I looked at her face...
And she's none other than........ Yap Lay Wee, my 'stressor' during my PRCP days... *Haha*...

It's kinda weird to miss someone whom you're having a love-hate relationship with... *Hehe*... Yes, I hated her for giving me lots of pressure... I hated her for always asking me to do my work faster... I hated her for not answering my questions and instead telling me, "What you think leh?"...
BUT...
It's through all those pressure that I learnt stuffs that are priceless to me... In fact sometimes, they just builds up your courage and boosts your morale...
It's through all those times when she asked me to do my work faster that I often get to complete my work on time...
It's through all those times when she doesn't answer my question that I had to use my brain to think what's right and what's wrong for my patients... In a way, allowing me to make my own decision...

There's always something good behind all those things that I used to hate...

Anyway, you must be wondering why I would write an entry for my 'stressor'... Cuz I just met up with her just now and I didn't know how much I missed her... Not until just now... Well, for now, she's doing her advanced diploma so wishing her all the best!!

And today was the first time ever I went out with the ward nurses... Not bad ay... Well, this is the only time you can get to see the other side of them... *Hehe*...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And we were being 'tortured' in the ward just now... We were made to do houskeeping... The first step: To scrape of the double sided tape of the medication trolley... Took us 2 solid hours to remove them of the two trolleys... Did them until my right index finger could not bend for awhile... *Sigh*... Can believe that I was 'downgraded'... *Hehe*...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It seems like my cough isn't getting any better... Two days after visiting the doctor, I'm still coughing like mad and I think by the time I finish one whole bottle of my cough syrup, I'll be still coughing...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Darn... My mum just said that I have put on weight... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

~ Finally! A Visit to the Doctor ~ 7:05:00 pm

Finally... I have got my butt moving to pay the ever dearest doctor a visit... But that was also because Eve had 'dragged' me along to the walk-in clinic... Well, I did have the intention to go but that doesn't mean that I HAVE to go... *Hehe*...

Anyway, I was just told that my throat was inflammed and that I had some viral infection... Maybe that explains why my throat is hurting and why I'm coughing non-stop most of the time... Surprisingly, my voice is totally not affected by it... *Phew*...

And I was prescribed some cough syrup, lozenges and tablets for my throat of course... And what a pity that I had to pay for my medications since I did not have my staff ID card since we're still new... Gonna claim for my money back!! *Haha*...

And as for Eve, she wasn't as lucky as me... In fact, she got referred to GS cuz her salivary glands could be blocked... Hope that everything will go fine for her...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Sigh*... I just can't help but to feel envious of the people around me...

~ Updates... ~ 9:18:00 pm

Oh wow... It's been awhile since I last blogged a proper entry... Been busy, lazy and sick to update... *Hehe*...

Anyway, it's been wonderful for the past week... Finally, we went back to the ward for some patient care although I felt really, really lost on the first day despite being there for our PRCP... The SAN expected us to know EVERYTHING... But subsequently, it got better and Alhamdulillah (Praise to Allah), I'm coping quite well with my junior role although there can still be room for improvement... But you know what, nothing beats seeing the smiles on the faces of my patients... Honestly, it really got me more motivated to work...

For the second half of the day, we were mostly in Ward 11A, which was used as a skills lab... There, we learnt about oxygen therapy, care of chest tube and some other stuffs... And yes, we did learn a lot despite all the 'pushing and drilling'... At least we'll be more aware when we function in the ward... I do think that Lay Hoon is an excellent trainer... Very encouraging and often relate stories that are worth a value... =)

Oh yeah... One of our NYP lecturer, Ms Joan Lee, was hospitalised in TTSH for a protruding vertebrae (if I'm not mistaken), causing her to have radiating pain on her back and left arm... Anyway, Joan Lee was our Gerontology lecturer and if you think that she was partly the reason why I ended up in Geriatrics, you're actually right... *Hehe*... The way she conducts her lessons was extremely fun and interesting and that was one of the reasons why I am in Geriatrics now... Anyway, the whole lot of us went to visit her after receiving news that she was hospitalised... Bought her flowers and had quite a fun time talking to her... By the way, she's already discharged now and hopefully, she'll get well soon!!

And yeah, I fell ill on Thursday afternoon... Had a painful throat and fever while Lay Hoon was teaching on clinical documentation... I was perfectly fine though while Sister Kala was teaching on nursing documentation... Just came out of a sudden... Anyway, my fever have subsided now but my throat is still as painful as ever... And I've yet to go to the doctor cuz I'm very stubborn... *Hehe*... If my throat is still painful tomorrow, I will pay the doctor a visit... Anyway, I don't think my throat will get well by tomorrow... Cuz I was thinking, my fever came with my throat pain... So it's indicating that my throat is either infected or inflammed... So, better I go to the doctor tomorrow... *This is my analogy... Haha*...

So, with this, I end my entry... Do take care everyone... It's the 'sick' season so do take your precautions... Bye!

~ Season to be Sick... ~ 6:54:00 pm

Down with fever... 38.4ºC...
Throat aching like hell... Too painful to swallow...
Was shivering like mad in the skills lab...
Couldn't focus on what Lay Hoon was teaching just now...

*Sigh*... I hate getting sick... But I'm no Superwoman either...

~ TGIDOT!! ~ 7:41:00 pm

It's just so draining... Having to wake up so early each single day just to head to work... Let me make this clear first... No, I'm not complaining... Just the feeling of tiredness... So, TGIDOT!! It means 'Thank God It's Day Off Tomorrow'... *Haha*...

Anyway, as I have mentioned in my previous entries, it was back to the wards yesterday... But honestly, there was not even a single patient contact for my ward... *Heehee*... All we had was some ward based orientation regarding important stuffs that a nurse should know... An example is the EHS, which I don't remember what the term is... *Hee*...

And oh... My ward NO, Sister Laura, was the one who did the orientation with all the new staffs in Level 7 since most of the other NOs were busy with the JCI... And as she was doing the orientation with us, the Director of Nursing of TTSH decided to drop by the tutorial room that we were using, just to see how we are... Director of Nursing leh!! We were kinda shocked though... And the best part of all, she gave us a lollipop each... *Haha*... By the way, she was there @ Ward 7A for some purpose... So she did really drop by to see us since it was along the way... *Hee*...

After lunch, we were allowed to practise our Laerdal resuscitator in the interview room since we had to be assessed today... Got Sister Noraini to demonstrate once to us before we started to 'drill' each other with the function test... And honestly, the 'drilling' stuff from the rest of them, I think it really made things a lot better for us... *Haha*...

Today... I can't believe it... Had 3 assessments at one go... Yes, it was quite challenging... But unlike in school, what matters most is that you must know what you are doing and why you are doing so... Doesn't really matter how you do it, as long as what you do is right and you're comfortable with it... Well, this is very much how Lay Hoon, our nurse educator, mentioned to us... Have your own style... *Hehe*...

Anyway, the first assessment was on the Laerdal resuscitator function test... Lay Hoon went through with us once, taught us the rationale, the purpose why the Laerdal was designed in such a way and all the 'what if's... A few people were assessed before me and when it came to my turn, guess who stepped in?.......... The Assistant Director of Nursing (ADN) of TTSH... *Errrrr*... When I first saw her stepped in, was wondering who she was although I found her super familiar... Did my function test as per normal until I fumbled at one of the rationale part... Lay Hoon, who was assessing me, just told me to ignore the person standing over there... And when I turned to look at her, saw her name tag and finally realised that she was the ADN... *Oh gosh!!*... She was looking at my assessment!! But luckily, everything else went smoothly... *HEE =D*

Oh!! This one is a must-say... *Hehe*...
In between of the first and second assessment, did some practise on the tracheostomy suctioning... And as I was trying out on the suctioning, Lay Hoon just suddenly said, "Nadiah, it's contaminated..."... Really, I was shocked!! Why? Can you imagine, I was standing on the head of the bed on one side and she was standing at the foot of the bed on the opposite side... And she could see that I had contaminated the suction tube... And what's more, she was assessing others on the Laerdal and I was blocked by some of my friends... *Wow*... She really has sharp eyes... So, better not sleep during lectures! *Haha*...

The second assessment was on the checking of the defibrillator machine... This time round, we were assessed by Pick Fong... Everything went well except that she demanded quite a lot from us... Example, she wants us to say each rationale on why we are doing it... But at least, she shared a lot of information with us... *Hehe*...

The third assessment... Tracheostomy suctioning... This suctioning is kinda important because of its sterile techniques... Anyway, I did something silly here... *Heehee*... My technique of coiling the suction catheter was kinda weird... So Lay Hoon told me to recoil the catheter... My hands and brain, somehow, were not functioning well together so I just went to coil the tube with my unsterile hand... And Lay Hoon, she was shocked!! *Haha*... Ended up, I had to do it again from the part I pulled the suction catheter out of its package... Anyway, during the part where I had to collect the suction specimen, I was so focused not to contaminate the set that Evelyn told me that my face was practically tensed and expressionless... Why? Cuz that was the part where Lay Hoon caught me contaminated during my practise... And the end of it, my face was just too expressionless that Lay Hoon just did "Phew"... *Haha*... Of course I couldn't help but to smile... =D

But whatever it is, I'm glad that I managed to do all my 3 assessments without much difficulties... Cuz again, they are there not to fail us but to guide us... =)

And before I end, let me do some complaining here... I MAY HAVE TO COME BACK TO WORK AFTER MY GRADUATION CEREMONY!! *Sigh*... This is so sad... The reason is because, the ward is not able to give all 6 people who will be going back for the Graduation Ceremony, a Day Off... And I thought I could enjoy the rest of the day at the Nurses' Day Celebration with the rest of them... So, I shall remain sad until my ward NO says that she grants me a Day Off... *Haha*...

~ The Talk About Weddings... ~ 9:53:00 pm

As we were having our morning tea break earlier today at Starbucks @ TTSH, the talk about weddings suddenly just springed up... From the suitable gown to wear during ROM and the wedding dinner to the ideal place to have a wedding to the perfect dream wedding to the dream honeymoon destination to the price of having a wedding... Practically, everything that were related to weddings were mentioned in the conversation...

Of course I did not contribute much because honestly, I have never ever thought much about weddings... Well, I DO want to get married... Just that I have never given much thoughts about how I want my wedding to be...

Anyway, enough about weddings... *Hehe*... One of the reasons why we suddenly talked about this was because Florence and Eliza was reading a wedding magazine bought by one of our fellow colleagues, Tracy...

Oh... It'll be back to the wards tomorrow... Well, I'll get separated from my friends... But on a brighter note, I'm kinda looking forward to head back to the ward... At least there'll be more hands on...

And here's a picture of us!! Please click on the picture for a bigger view...

(L-R): Xiufen, Evelyn, Me, Flora, Florence, Eliza & Candy...

And we're proud to be TTSH nurses! *Hehe*

~ Orientation Day 5... ~ 8:38:00 pm

I've just realised how atrocious my previous blog entry was... Well, that was because it was written under the 'sleepy mode'... It was just so jialat... *Haha*...

Anyway, today's orientation was quite alright... Except for the fact that I slept through one of the presentations which was on tracheostomy tubes... Well, the speaker was a little boring... Inclusive of the fact that it was after lunch so it practically made it worse... The presentations before lunch was quite interesting especially when Sister Kala shared her experience as a nurse... Very motivating...

And yeah... Don't think just because we have graduated and obtained our practising licence, we wouldn't be assessed anymore... NOOO!! We are still being assessed... Well, we should be lah... I mean since we're dealing with people's lives... So naturally, everything has to be good... Just like what Sister Kala said, it's a great fact that these people are willing to entrust their lives to you... Of course you have to do it well... Anyway, first assessment will be on tracheostomy suctioning... Supposedly to be today but due to the short of timing, it will be pushed to this Friday...

Oh... I flunked my drug dosage test... *What the heck*... Actually, didn't really fail... Just that Lay Hoon wanted us to get 24 and above upon 30... Just that I scored 20... Short of 4 marks... *Darn*... But at least you will know where you're weak at... And you can work out from there... For me, I need more practise on IVs... I just sucked at that...

And yeah... I've realised that many, many theory stuff, I have already returned to NYP... Guess it's time to retrive it back from them again... *Hehe*...

~ Orientation.... ~ 8:41:00 pm

*Yawn*... Yes yes... I'm a sleepyhead... Well, don't blame me... Been waking up at 6am every morning... *Stretch*...

Alright... Orientation have been a little boring at times... It's usual lah... Listening to talks will only make you wanna sleep especially after lunch, you feel a lot fuller... Been listening to all sorts of presentation from infection control to falls to phlebitis to dysphagia... You name it, we've listened to it... Oh yeah... Of course not forgetting the JCI standards... But don't worry... We will be heading for the wards this Friday... So, finally some practical stuff... *Hee*...

For yesterday's infection control talk, NYP students were invited to listen to the talk too... Of course the lecturers were there too... We were so noisy, practically calling this and that lecturer, waving at them... As quoted by Lay Hoon, it was as though they were given the idol treatment... *Haha*... Well, you can see that we were very excited to see them again... =D

There were some filming done at TTSH's Kopitiam today... I really wonder, hospital food is nice too eh? *Hehe*...
Ran into my nurse friend too... And thanks to my friends for embarassing me...

Well, in the meanwhile, let me enjoy my 'honeymoon' period for now...

Alright... Gotta go now... Need to iron my uniform... And oh, I just hate ironing my uniform now... Thanks to the lining in the pants and the double ironing of the pantsuit... Yes, you can call me a whiner... Ciao!

~ Have a cuppa coffee & share some laughter... ~ 8:07:00 pm

You know... It's really nice sitting down for a cup of coffee (ice-blended for me please!) with your group of friends once in a while... Reminiscing about the past during the good ol' days, gossiping about people (please try to avoid this if possible!) and laughing over the silly things that you have done... You will realise how much you miss your then-life... Cuz it was just like yesterday, you were still a student and suddenly in an instant, you're already a full-fledged working adult...

So, my advice... Do try to meet up with your friends no matter how busy you are when you've start working... It definitely takes your mind away off work and a good laughter will make you feel better!! Time is precious... Do treasure it... =D

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Hmm*... There are fireworks over at JB, I think... Can see a wee bit from my bedroom window... Not a lot though... Wonder what's the occasion...

~ First Day of Work... ~ 7:57:00 pm

*Yawn*... Am so sleepy...

Today was officially the first day of work... Nothing much that we did for the orientation except to listen to talks, talks and more talks... Well, what can I say... It's the FIRST day!!

27 PRC students from TTSH had to be transferred to NUH due to the lack of staff over there... *Sigh*... I'm gonna miss Lili and Xiaocui...

And oh yeah... We went into the mortuary today!! Of course there were no dead bodies... Just saw the fridge... But whatever it is, at least I got to see it with my own eyes...

Will be working tomorrow... Darn... First time having to work on a Saturday... Thank goodness it's only half day... *Haha*...

Having blisters on my foot now... All thanks to the leather shoes that we have to wear... *Grr*... And all it took to form the blisters was a 15-mins walk from my house to the MRT station... And yeah, I've applied hydrocolloid dressing (duoderm) on the blisters... But it's not cheap though... $7+ for 6 small pieces from Watsons...

And oh... Our final bond money is still not in yet!!!! *Grrr*... And I thought they said that money will come in today... *What the heck!*...

And thanks to Flora, I had to return to NYP with her in my staff nurse uniform just to accompany her to pay the library fines... And thankfully, Yangde happened to be around the school area... Otherwise, we would be stuck at the library entrance due to the invalid admin card we have now...
