Staff Nurse Jiayan.

Gotten my uniform on friday. ha. With a new look comes with more responsibilty.

"yes? u need anything? wait for a while, i get my STAff nurse to talk to u."

"there, there. the one with the blue strip uniform. She's the in-charge."

Good Luck to me. I dun even know which dept i'm allocated to yet. Argh...

Swimming etiquette!!!

i'm gonna be a pool rage instead of road rage... y do some pple swim like the whole pool belongs to them? i have to keep changing lanes to avoid bumping into them. y cant they just go abit to one side and me abit to other side den both parties get to swim happily. Argh.. this is supposed to be a relaxing once a week swim.

Anyway, i met Terence Yeo at the Yishun Safra where i was swimming. My jc teacher. ha.ha. Seems to bump into him everywhere. When i go sentosa. When i go supper and saw his wife n him. When i was swimming. Haha.

When she was still a baby.

The day that i brought my darling home. 14mths 4 days ago.

Growing up and shedding.
My sweet Darling.

Hermit!

My cousin, Mandy's hermits. So amazing that these crabs call shell their home.

I always feel that i'm like a hermit crab. Maybe becoz i'm a cancer? ha. Nah. My life is rather like one though. I'm stuck in a small space with little freedom but the thing is i'm quite comfortable with it.

I very much wanted to experience what life has to offer but i have my responsibility too. It's a matter of weighing your priorities.

A 10 yr old girl.

Went to walk my dog as usual during the afternoons at my grandma's. A really hot and sunny day. Met this girl at the void deck. She walk towards my dog, wanting to play with her. And she juzt chatted me up, flooding me with informations of her 2 dogs, and anything under the sun that is related to dogs. We talked for like 45min.

Frankly, i'm quite taken aback by her. I rem that when i was her age, i was still the very shy and maybe timid girl who wouldn't initiate contact with a stranger. Call me weird. i don't know.
And her command of English is i would consider good for a pri4. Am i outdated? Or kids are getting smarter nowadays?

Anyway, really enjoyed the conversation. Seeing a little girl being so passionate about dogs to the extent that she has a scrapbook and dog dictionary and she can really rem all the little details of not only what her dogs but also other dogs that she met. A passion that beat me hands down.

My life is just come n go everyday. What's my goal in life? i do not really know. i need something or someone to spur me on in life. What/Who will that be? i'm still searching for.

e project.

Been working on a bdae project with jac for the past 2 days. haha. The final product is about 90% done. Both jac n i are proud of our work. But fotos can only be put up after wed. =p So ting don't scold us for not giving u bdae cards for the past years. haha. Hope u'll like it!

Met up with carynn, weishan and xinyi for steamboat dinner yest. It's such a good feeling to have the 4 of us back together again. It's been a while and will be quite some time before we meet again. We are starting work soon and with the nature of our job, it'll be very difficult to gather. Hai.

Going to be a staff nurse soon. With the title comes more responsibility. It's not like student days where u can say byebye when the time is up to go home. Sometimes, i wonder if i'm up for the job. Will i make blunders and cause harm? Will i be able to withstand the physical and mental stress?

In the past, i thought office politics only exists in office but i realised that as long u're working with people, there will be politics everywhere. And i think i'm someone who can easily be used?
I hope to be more assertive, be more decisive, to have my own stand. That i feel i lack.

The Chronicle of pompom Showertime!

TADAH!!

p/s: unflattering images are not posted eg: digging of ears, cleaning of eyeshit. Haha.

I'm Back.

Been inactive for almost 2 years. haha.

Hello my friends! i've graduated from my nursing course. Waiting to start work at my sponsoring hospital (CGH) which is on the 2nd July. For now, i'm just bumming around, endless mahjong sessions, meeting up with friends, and hoping i'll get to the department i want.

Went to escape theme park with my cousinz yest. Not exactly a place where i'll pay money and go. But since my first cousinz suggested an outing there and she've brought 2 kids along, Mandy, Max n me just follow along (stupid Mellie back out in e last min). With the 2 kids, we finally realised the perils of being a parent. We were queuing for the go-kart. When reaching our turn, the 2 boys suddenly were debating which no. car they want. So they end up hitting n crying n ignoring each other. It took us some time to settle them down before continuing.

It makes me ponder twice abt having children. It takes great deal of patience and effort to bring up a child to be a responsible adult. It's not simple pampering that so many parents are indulging in their child that works. Are u willing to sacrifice your time to nurture them?
