~ My Updates ~
6:33:00 pm
I am a very tired girl... So tired that I dozed off on my computer chair for 30 minutes, halfway while I was using my laptop... So, please don't mind me if this entry turns out to be, well, rubbish...
It's been close to 2 weeks since I've last updated... Partly was because I was busy... Majority was because I was lazy... *Haha*... Oh well... And it's not that I did not attempt to update my blog... I did! Exactly one week ago... But I didn't know which keypad button I had accidentally pressed (I am still not used to my laptop yet despite having it for a month), causing most of the things that I had typed to disappear... And of course, I just gave up on continuing to update...
And now, it's time for me to do my updates again... And I really hope that this entry would not disappear on me, again...
First and foremost...
To my Muslim friends... How was your Hari Raya like? Well, mine was just so-so... Didn't really feel like celebrating even though I had 1 week of leave... Maybe it was because everyone else in the family was working except for my mum... So, we were both at home most of the time... But of course, we still did our usual visiting to the elders' house... And as per norm ever since I started working, I have never received any green packets or
duit raya from anyone anymore... Instead, I'm the one giving out the
duit raya... But of course, I don't mind it at all...
Had a small family gathering at my home on Saturday... Invited my usual gang of friends (although only 3 turned up but still it's better than nothing right!)... And the highlight was definitely inviting my special someone over... *Hehe*... Well, it's the first time that he's meeting my family... Or rather, my parents... Just to sum it all up, he was rather shy but of course, I find him rather brave to do so... *Haha*... That's because I have not visited his family yet, you see... Oh well... And of course, the usual stuffs (food, goodies, etc)... Didn't managed to get much pictures cuz I was just too lazy to snap around... *Hehe*...
Well, I hope to do it again next year... But this time round, I shall plan it properly... =D
Okay, updates about work...
Went back to work last week after 9 days of not stepping my foot into the ward... I was rather reluctant to start work but at the same time, I couldn't wait to get my butt moving from home (since I wasn't doing much at home)... The irony... *Haha*... Was rather 'hanged' when I started work cuz it seems that I suddenly forgot how to do so many things... But it's been a week since I started working and of course, it's been back to the usual routine again...
Serving of medication... Turning and changing... Doctor's rounds... Changes... Updates... Reports... Endless callbells... And the cycle goes on and on...
But at the same time, I did encounter some funny moments with my patients...
Just like yesterday, when I went to get a commode chair for one of my patients, the other patient (she is demented) just dragged away the commode chair from behind the screened curtains, claiming that it was hers... And I realised that the commode chair had no bucket below it!! And the way the demented patient tried to grab the commode chair away was really funny that the relatives from the opposite bed just laughed, looking at her antics...
It's a joy nursing people but at same time, there are things that we just cannot endure... Especially since there's a limit to everyone's patience...
And before I end my entry, here are some pictures from Hari Raya...

My sis & I

Ezzie (my baby cousin) & me!

Me & my 'bodyguards'... *Haha*Adios!
P.S. Thank goodness the entry did not disappear again... *Hehe*...
