Moved!
Still no internet connection until the 9th Feb. One more week to go before I get my butt on the flight back to Singapore.I am missing my family, friends and best thing is, Eileen smsed me to say that she has arranged an expendition for the g.fs. Meaning of expendition is we'll usually organised an activity of cycling trip up across Benjamine Shears Bridge or sentosa beach volleyball. Everything is going on pretty ok but I guess, this isn't my first time sharing a house with other people so it's not biggie to me if the mates have their own way of doing things. Frankly speaking, learning how to live with other people for the past few years has mold me into someone who is more patience, more forgiving, more easy going, and learn to say 'no'. The only thing I can't stand is when someone whinges or complains too much. If for a good reason, that's fine with me. But when the whinge gets overloaded on my ears, what would you choose to do readers? For me, I would walk away. Why I should make my ears so unbearable to such irritants.
J rang me 2 days ago and let me know that he has bought a private practice in Castlehills, Northen Sydney. This is a piece of good news which means, once he is settled at the practice, he 'may' offer me a job. Approximately 80% load of patients are for biomechanics rather than doing nails nails nails all the time.
Went for a open air movie last night with Preema, Steve and Freda. Not too bad for a price of 10 bucks 2 movies (Mr Incredible and Ella Enchanted).

Moving starts over this weekend
Ok, after this week, no more internet till the connection is up on 9th Feb. Why? Because that's how Ozzie doing their things.....take ages to do something simple like getting a line fix up. Geez, I feel as if I am gonna go through a period of cold turkey without internet. U know, one can get symptoms like shaking fingers, unknown tremours, high anxiety level coz don't know how to kill time especially at night.
Or perhaps, I should take prozac to keep myself happy or valium to concuss on bed early.
I am still packing....the stuffs are amazing. I feel like throwing away more but don't know how. All seems to be very useful to me.

Road rage shall not be tolerated
I wonder why the Ozzies like to hog up on one lane even thought there are 2 lanes going in the same direction. I decided to change lane since I am kinda stuck in the line of cars and yet no one is willing to make a move to the next lane. So I checked the road lines (making sure overtaking is legal), sigalled at least 3 secs and check my blind spot before swerving my wheel. Who knows, half way through the turning, this maroon family car just speed up behind me. At this moment of time, i can't leave my half way steered wheel there so might as well changed to the lane as quickly as possible. Bear in mind that the speed limit on that road is only 60km/hr.
Just less than 10 seconds later, we stopped at the red traffic light. She was behind my car , pointing her middle finger as I can see from the front mirror. The next thing was she jumped out of her car , leaving her young passengers in car seats, came up to me and gave a whack on my car windscreen. Geez, her knuckles must be in real pain. She just speed off in her family car after that. Of course, she almost ruined my day but I did submit an incident report to the police.
Ozzie polices are ..uhm..so inefficient. This Mr Police told me that unless I decided to get her to court then they will follow it through. But I reckon, the police should at least show some warnings to her that it is wrong to road rage and endangering her kids in the car. The thing is I am going back to Singapore also........going to court is quite troublesome here plus it can take up to months for the court to be avaliable. There has got to be more efficient ways to handle these trivial but important matters. Then again, their brains are probably stuffed up with too many hamburgers and snags (hotdogs).
Ok, that added another 'Xiaoren' for me to hit on the list. Curse her to have laosai for weeks.

My best friend's wedding in June
As you can see from the title, one of my sistas getting married in June. So have to save up for a trip to Singapore by then. Ohh, just happened to walk by this shop which is having 50% storewide. I ended up buying a dress where I can wear to the dinner. A bit sexy with a ribbon in the front. Sequine beads are attached at the bottom of the dress. It also comes with adjustable bra straps and most importantly, the price was reduced from AU$49 to AU$14.50. I've attached a pic all those who wonder how it looks like.
Spent some time last night trying to summarise a case study to a senior podiatrist. Poor dude, he has been having infected toes for almost 2 years.
When the next week comes, i'll be pretty busy sorting out my mails and telephone. bugger*
Right now I need a good shower especially after being covered with sand and sea.

My temper & My 1st solo surgery
One of the prisoners exceeded my limit of patience yesterday. "GO AWAY"- raising my voice without even looking at him. He told me his problems and expect me to follow his treatment regime. What the hell I am here for in the first place. The conclusion was he wanted me to write a letter of referral to allow him to have his shoes from the property to be taken out. The prisons have strict rules that I can only do what I can. Unless some poor chaps having deformed feet or losing a toes, that's when I'll only write a medical referral to the supervisor. Hate being manipulated by these people.#$*%U)^(
Oh! I've done a total nail avulsion on a big toe on someone on my own. Feel so proud of myself now. TEEHEE!!
I missed I but I hate his guts. My friend even called him slack prick with no respect. But I am going to write a 'final' letter to him - once and for all to tell him I actually missed him. Uhm, well, like what my friend said, he should be flattered that someone is missing him. I mean , it's not everyday that you get messages like I missed you. Morever it took me a while before deciding to write or not. Then again, I feel that I've got nothing to lose. In regardless of the outcome, I am prepared mentally. At least, I've done my best part of it. I must always tell myself don't procrastinate to get things done because life is too short.
I may have been swept away by the Tusnami if it did strike 4 years ago in Phuket. I was standing and relaxing Patong Beach and now, the beautiful images of the island can only remain in my memories.
So here, I've learnt to be more upfront with my feelings rather than hide it at the bottom of my heart...

Got house but no phoneline
That's one of my criteria of getting a room in a house. Must have phoneline socket. Hopefully things will work it out with the landlord on Tue. If not, I'll probably stuffed up.
Working with so many oldies, many of them like to ask me if I've got any boyfriend and somewhat, they will start to relate their enduring love stories to me. Think I should start writing and compile them into a book.Who knows, I may make a profit out of it.

Love story of the week:
(*names have been changed to protect the privacy act)
Mrs Raj who is a chronic arthritis sufferer, stepped into the clinic 2 days ago for the first time to get her feet treated. "I was born in India in the 1930s," as she continued with a strong indian accent. "My dad passed away when I was only 11. It's only natural for my mom to be protective of me."
ME:" so your husband came along with you to Australia?"
Mrs Raj paused for a moment before she began her next sentence. " I was married to an English man and he died of cancer 4 years ago. I still miss him very much. He takes good care of me especially when I am sick. I think of him when I go for my Doctor's appointments. He was a good man. Before he died, he told my children to take care of me."
ME:" how did you get away from the olden times of India to marry a white guy?"
Mrs Raj:" I met him through a friend's friend. He was in the cricket team. He actually changed from staying in Royal English Force to Royal India Force to be with me. Even though I didn't want to stay in England, it was too cold for me. I told my mom I can trust him. But there were a lot of misconceptions of white guys being flirty, sex and sleep around. I had the best time of my life."
ME: trying hard not to sniff behind my mask.

NO HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cham cham cham. Weather is extremely hot today with a high temperature of 38 degrees celsius. Forest fires are happening on certain parts of the Perth today and even threaten people's lives or houses to the extend. Smoke and haze have been going around suffocating my nose.
Wanna go swimming later the afternoon. Guess what? KNN- the weather becomes gloomy and hot. The moment I get into the ladies change room, the announcement came on like this:" All people please get out of pool now as there is a lightening strike." Damn...... I asked for a refund then and went home.
How fun is that.
Oh one of my patients particularly like to ask me this question:" have you found yourself a boyfriend?".
*sigh*
I wish I can say something else than a 'no'.

I'm getting wrathful......
No news on the house. At a point I feel like grabbing a newspaper and start driving around to look a decent place on my own. Throughout my stay in Perth, I've never across so much trouble to look a house to stay. Right now, it is such a long tendious process. Suggestion on a long list of houses is impractical and time consuming.Rather, it is also difficult to tell people to be realistic with the options of choosing the houses as we know we are all different in certain ways. By the way, I tend to choose to live close by for easy access to many places (for instance is my boss place). Driving up to 2-3 destinations to work in a day can be quite tiring and the last thing on my mind is going home fast and rest. Then again, some people think just because I drive and that doesn't make a difference.
Ohh yes, the differences are petrol fees, time, accessibility .....
On the other hand, why I am explaining so much here.?Guess the true drivers would understand how I feel.
Went over to a g.f's place for dinner. Don't know what's got into her head, her expession of speech plus usage of words are not so friendly. I chose to keep quiet. No point arguing with someone not in the right state of mind. There are just some people out there who doesn't think before they open their mouths...

Luck-less
No luck with the house yet. Just walking via different house agents to get some list for rental properties. Wish me luck once more *again*. Left about 2 weeks to search for my new 'home'.
Otherwise, things are pretty much the same. I'm looking forward to meet my vast amount of friends back home and family. It's always nice to be back to the home nest minus Dad's/Mom's nagging. Eugene rang me yesterday but I was driving like 10okm/hr on the freeway. Subsequently, we still managed to chat up a little over the net on that night itself. Ohhh, I got myself a job as a locum podiatrist in Singapore! The bling bling is good and I can't complained much. Well, that would really come in handy since I have my mobile, rent, internet, credit card, bills to pay prior leaving. Soon, it will be the car insurance, professional indemnity insurance and car registration to pay in the upcoming months. That's how I plan my financial status - always take a step ahead in term of money matters.
I wanna go on holiday when I'm back in Singapore if possible. Thinking about 4 days Hongkong or just China. Still got mambo and clubbing with my bro and g.fs, and cousins. cham cham. Not sure shall I paste a forum to meet travelling friends in singapore or not....
Friendster- realised that I am getting more reply from my old sec school pals! That's great and hopefully will meet them up eventually when I'm back in SG.
Have to ring a surgeon tomorrow to ask her opinion of this very interesting case I've seen at the prison. It's ultra disgusting to look so I shall not harm my readers by putting it up....even though there is a temptation to do that.
I hate missing I...... I need to be stronger than before and I will......What if I ever see him again? How would I react? In fact, after those few nights of writing essays on my notebook, I am thinking less of I.*shrugs*
VN and myself had a little prank. We started to give around her ex-boss number coz he is such an arsehole who doesn't think before he says anything. See, what goes around turn around. VN is one of the rare pals whom I can chat anything under the sun. I can say she is the brainy one ..always full of idea and keen on pressing the gums to release the pus (ya she is a dentist).

Slacking Sunday
Should I change my blog address?
It's funny how people after reading my blog, they turn and twist the 'facts' to another co-friends which resulted me having to answer multiple questions.
Bugger off that. (note that I've put a disclaimer on the homepage)
Anyway, weather was kinda weird today. Wasn't a good day for beach with so much clouds in the sky. Think I'd rather stay at home and throw more junks away.
Oh, haven't found a place to move..boohoo!

Mint-coloured dress
After car servicing, my g.f and myself decided to waste our time shopping in the city. Saw this really nice green mint tube dress and yet not revealing for the price of $54 as reduced from $80. I can never carry off those ultra sexy a -few -pieces -covered -body clothings. Somehow, with my 'decent' looking face, no way I can be more sultry than sweet in those sexy cuts wear. I want a more 'changeable' face! *kidding* - I am happy with what I have anyway. I always prefer to wear brightly coloured clothes than those dull boring colours (eg, shades of grey).
Girlfriend F was lovely to buy me a nice lunch and with one set of meal +drink purchased, we get to sing an hour of karaoke. *chuckles* . F also took a calender with her by mistake that she thought it was for free. Then again, the stack of calender was piled up next to a collection of free local chinese community newspaper. Too bad for the boss then.
Tried Smsing the landlord to view the potential house and yet heard nothing from him/her. Bah.
Oh, someone apparently scratched my car.........What goes around, comes around. Curse him/her hands to be chopped off by someone or preferably, let them turn ill rotten and gangrenous. Whoever you are, you deserve it.
Back to ebay's business......

More missons to be accomplished
OOoook, my mom has left Perth for Singapore today. This afternoon, we went to tour agency to book my flight back to Singapore on Valentine's day. Isn't that great that I can avoid to see those lovey dovey couples on the streets. At least I get to enjoy half of the day flying inthe air while busy switching between channels on the SQ's inflight entertaiment.
So that's mission accomplished number 1.
Next, house hunting begins from now onwards. Dateline is to move out at the end of the month. The thought of calling those agents, emailing, oragnise time to view,and driving around make me wanna puke. Bah*In addition, i;ve got about 20 organisations to report for changing of my address. Some required a formal letter to be written too. *double bah*
I've written 2 complaint emails to the following employees. If nothing or the matter of me not getting paid has not resolved, I will write a formal letter to the Wageline. So that people will learn not to take my service for granted.
Think my hormone level is fluctuating'. I just wanna to be left alone and not sure why, I always enjoy shopping, fixing stuffs or doing things myself. Not say that I am a selfish person but seriously, I would rather look at peace and traquility that resent on my mind.I would prefer to ask for help if I really need to. Should I say that maybe I do possess a strong independence character.
The search for a house continues....*yawns*

Woos
Pays from prisons are not coming in on time. I think my level of patience is exceeding beyong my limits. I am going to ring the Ministry of Treasury and blurt at them for their inefficiencies. That would be the first thing to do in the morning.
Next, remember to ring to pay for the medical supplies via credit card deduction.
I am moving out soon to stay with another girlfriend. So I shall say goodbye to the student accomodation housing at the end of month. Tee hee. Got all my boxes prepared and anytime I am ready to pack up.
Need to start working hard in the month of Jan.I am going back to Singapore on Valentine's Day but I've yet paid for the ticket.
Oh, I've just receieved a letter from the podiatry assocation saying that now podiatrists are allowed to use the title 'Dr' but at the end of the name must have the word '(podiatrist)' if one fufill the criteria as below: Masters holder, 4 years postgrad experience, must register in Australia and so on. In addition, those podiatrists who are certified to do acupuncture on foot and ankle (mainly) are allowed as long as they follow the sterility and legisation rules hold by the board.

Tim Sum Buffet $11 per head
So full on my tum tum! Didn't had any dinner or lunch because I had a huge tim sum buffet feast with mom and my g.f - F. Don't be surprise that our usual tim sum routine is to sit up to 3 hours in the resturant and savouring the food slowly. Not scoffing down those food of course as unlike those 'kiasu' peeps. Guess we had the most rounds of tow huay (beancurd).......almost like 4 bowls per person.
Weather is abit on the cool side today. Thank goodness that I brought a cardi out with me. Actually I always enjoy the weather in their high 20s temperature.
Landlord came over and I had to move out by end of Jan. SO strange. Mr A is able to sign for 6 months lease and I can't. It's funny how the landlord said that someone also want Mr A's room and yet they still allowed him to stay on. Anyway, I had enough of staying with students. So goodluck to the landlord if she can find 2 people to move in straight as soon as possible. Moving is such a big hassel...the thought of driving around to look for a decent place to stay is such a pain in my head and a**.
Need to edit the pics from the trip in Kalgoorlie and hopefully I can find time to paste it on my Virtual tourist website soon.

So full on my tum tum! Didn't had any dinner or lunch because I had a huge tim sum buffet feast with mom and my g.f - F. Don't be surprise that our usual tim sum routine is to sit up to 3 hours in the resturant and savouring the food slowly. Not scoffing down those food of course as unlike those 'kiasu' peeps. Guess we had the most rounds of tow huay (beancurd).......almost like 4 bowls per person.
Weather is abit on the cool side today. Thank goodness that I brought a cardi out with me. Actually I always enjoy the weather in their high 20s temperature.

Happy New Year 2005
In fact, I didn't stay up late to welcome the new year. The neck pain and headache have been bugging me since yesterday. All I want is to rest. Hitting onto the bed by 9pm and woke up like 8yish in the morning. Mom made some breakfast and I feel like going back to bed again. Don't know why as I grow older, I need more sleep.Perhaps, I also need to identify several tactics to rejuvenate myself. (*hint: resolution number 1).
Since I've got my permanent residency, the resolution number 2 is getting a full job. There are jobs everywhere and it's just a matter of where one wanna work.Something to think about...
Resolution number 3: save save save! For my ultimate Euro dream in 06 and a nice apartment.
Resolution number 4: Pack my junks.
A short family history:
My maternal grandma is brought up by fosters parents where they also had 2 daughters themselves. My m.grandma is considered the youngest among the sisters then. Her foster parents also brought back another son but eventually he decided to return to his own natural parents. My grandma is supposedly leading a very comfortable life after she got married her husband who owned a small grocery shop. When WWII broke out, Japanese invaded Malaya where most of the men fleed into the forest to hide. That's how my grandma never see from grandad again. At that time, she already had her 1st child ( my uncle). Later on, my grandma married her 2nd husband who works as a rubber tapper. Together with my grandma, they brought up another 2 children (2nd uncle and my mom). How interesting.......I wish I can dig out more about the ancestry past.

Last Christmas I gave you my heart......-Wham!
I saw this ultra retro MTV (original) on Christmas Day itself! I would probably say this is the "best" song for the Christmas. In fact, Christmas is the most boring public holiday for moi I think.On the contrary, this year's christmas, Mom and myself went to the beach and dinner with a few girlfriends at my place. The menu includes green salad with Italian/caesar dressing, roast turkey and potato salad with fruit jelly desserts.
On boxing day, Mom and myself went to Fremantle market. Not much places to hang around especially the post christmas sale doesn't start until after 27th Dec. Unlike the places in Melbourne/Sydney, Perth needs to buck up on their retail trading hours to cater people like me. Weather is extremely hot here too.....like 38 degrees celsius.
Need to pack up stuffs to leave for a trip tomorrow. Whee whee!

110km/hr
I realised that I love to drive fast! I don't , in fact, worry about going on long distance trips to work even. The thrill, the speed,the acceleration make me just want to keep on going for a while in the car.
Festive season is just around the corner. I've received the most X;mas cards this year and gifts too. Hee!
This is going to be a short entry. I've been so busy with getting medical stocks, household chores, work, grocery shopping and shopping. Now i seriously need some REAL beauty sleep.
Pretty boring life uh..unlike some bloggers I've come across where they can chat anything on men under the sun.

Finally.....my permanent residency in Australia
Yippee, finally I've received my PR for Aussie now. So, no more application of visa in and out of Australia. What a relief indeed. Haven't had the time to reveal the good news to some of my good friends out there. I suppose it's about time I write an update soon- by tomorrow perhaps. In fact, I am not sure where I want my career to be. Feel like relocate if necessary but not toplaces like Tazmania or Melbourne. Too drastic weather changes will affect my mood.
As Christmas is just hanging around the corner, I went to do a mega grocery shopping. Having a mini girls party at my place (with my mom coming on 24th!). Menu will include a roast turkey breast, salads, potatoes, desserts (balvarian cake).
I'll be off to kalgoorlie with Mom on 27th Dec for a short vacation.
I've received quite a number of cards from friends all over the places and 2 gifts (one from SG and the other from New Zeland). Not a bad christmas after all ;p I am not complaining. I wish i can have the whole collection of books by Nicholas Sparks. Too impressed with the film called NOTEBOOK.
Anyway, feeling quite exhausted as I've spent the whole morning running around.
First to Medical supplier, apply Medicare card (health benefit card that entitle me to have discounted medical rates), grocery, dropping off present at an ex patient's house (the oldies sent me a card..owww), picking up instruments from Cara.
Also washed my car and did a bit of book keeping on my accounts. Still got ironing to go ...............

Pimple extractions
On the first hand news, I may have to move house. Landlord wanted to increase the rent to 100 bucks a week which I find it quite unacceptable for a small room like this in a double storey townhouse. Plus ,another requirement of signing one year lease which I totally dislike the idea.
oh most likely I'll be sharing with my g.f, F. Seems that we are fated to move man.....
Pimple extractions was done during my facial today. So soothing after that. Don't even feel like getting out of that 'bed'. I prefer the new beauty salon than the previous location. It's amazing how the K (my beautician) told me that one of the ex-clients has actually "stolen" their former location by trying to find out the lease. Then what's worst was this ex client engaged another beautician to set up another salon then. Tsk...human beings can be so evil and incorrigible at times.
Set up a list of food for Xmas dinner. Can't wait for next week to arrive........I feel so slack...

2 more X'mas cards!
Eli, if you are reading this, I just wanna say that thanks for the lovely christmas card. I am glad that you are there to listen too! We'll meet someday yeah?
Jen from KL also sent me a X'mas card. Whee! This Polish dude from VT claimed that he wanted to send me a postcard which I'll be waiting then!
Perth is suffering from a heatwave today of temperature raising to 41 degrees celsius. So after work, I rather stay at home with the A/C on. Coming to an end of year means I've got credit card subscription fee, car servicing, podiatrist registration, and now travel fees.
I am going to Kalgoorlie with mom in December and so what it is stinky hot. I'm gonna book for the train tickets and hotel bookings tomorrow. How exciting for a gateaway. Wish the bling bling ($) comes in faster. I am getting bored of Perth......
Had a cut/wash/colour/blow on my hair yesterday. The colour looks so more "lian". I got the urge of going for a chin length bob in my next hair salon visit. A bit tired seeing my long hair plus I detest the myth of having longer hair means more sexy??
Retail therapy starts this weekend and facial for me tomorrow. I need to rejuvate myself.....

Would you settle for Mr Rightish or Mr Just-Nice only?
Managed to wake up early just to catch one show only "The Notebook" at Queensgate, Fremantle. Seriously, I have no idea where exactly the movie theatre was so I just sort of approached the lady while we were waiting at the traffic light. This show has been highly recommended by my oz mates. Baseline of the story is "every great love there is a great love story."I wouldn't categorize this film under your old typical 'love story' movie. Initially there were like 3 peeps in the cinema and then half way the previews came along another couple. Feeling sorry for myself going to theatre without a partner? Nope. Doesn't really worry me as my objective is to watch the movie and nothing else. The best part would be not letting any body catch me in my dreadful sniffing during the show. At the end of the show, I just wish if only I can hear some fabulous love stories of how my grandparents got together. I never have a clue. With the only maternal grandma in her 80s now, I doubt she can remember as much.
Besides the touching film, I saw a few potential books which I wanna get it:
1) Book of elegance- teaching you the terms on apparel and wearing things at the right time.
2) He's just not into you- by sex of the city's authors , I had a good laugh reading the first few pages. If only this book exists in the library.....
3) The Notebook - by Nicholas Sparks.After watching the movie just simply brings me looking forward to read more about it.
4) Travel books/Stories and now I am currently reading Anna's Point of Departure. It describes how the divorced mid-50s lady with grown up kids goes travelling around the world plus what she sees and experienced.
I hope singles out there don't start panicking about not getting married or getting a mate. It's not that bad and who says everything is too late at the age of 26?? If one's life expectancy is at 80, even you are married at 40, you would still have 40 years of togetherness. SO why hurry and love for the sake of loving?

Dreadful Friday
Supposed to work in Merriwa in the morning. However, things doesn't seem to go right when you want it to be. Feeling nauseous and headache. Then I started to rench and of course, nothing comes out of an empty stomach. Headache mainly at the occiput areas. Rang boss and let her know that I can't work and luckily, she gave me her local GP number which doesn't require an appointment time. I think it's quite sux when you need to see a Dr ASAP here and yet a booking needs to be made prior. So I drove myself with a huge amount of tendious efforts like stopping at intervals (along the side of the road) and vomit into a plastic bag. Feel totally 100% sh*t. Reached the GP and he gave me a Maxalon inj. on my bum (OUUUUCH) and a few complimentary NSAIDS for my headache. Spent the whole day in bed and feeling lethargic -this is what happened when I took Maxalon. My boss was nice and she offered me a ride to see a Dr. But, I feel bad coz she got 2 small kids to handle too.
Took a lot of mental coaxing and determination to reach there (dr's) actually.
Received my first Christmas present from Susan posted from New Zeland! Wheee!! So nice of her to give me a set of bikini deck cards and a sovenior with a lovely card. Hope to catch up with her soon. Received 3 Xmas cards so far. One from England, my ex patient and Arizona.
Annie going off to Norway tomorrow and I am pretty sure she'll have lotsa fun.

House painting
Mic's house needed help to paint the walls. So, Miss F and myself went over his place in the morning to start painting at the laundry and extended dining area. Weather was quite chilly today in fact so we just had to forgo the beach outing in the later part of the day. Mic- I will label him as Mr Frugal. It's not a bad thing but it's an excellent point for anyone who is going to be his wifey in near future. Mr Frugal made lunch and dinner for us at his place and no doubt, we wanted to have the makan outside instead. He did gave us the options to eat outside from his shout. The options, however, always "disappeared" towards the meal times. In fact, Mr Frugal then suggested to have cakes and coffee at a local bookstore cafe nearby - yes, that was his treat. I am not complaining much in the sense it's just strange to see how people open up their options and yet, they don't usually meant what they say.
Later in the eveing, Mr Frugal rented DVDs instead of deciding to go out movies with us.
Mr Frugal is not a poor man to the point that he is not living on a dole or getting money from centrelink. Somehow, I just feel that he is not being generous enough. If he's living on the pension, I can truly understand why. But, I guess he wouldn't be living up to his name if he didn't have such character in himself. By the way, Mr Frugal is still looking for his soulmate.
I am not in the position to judge his character but only to express my perceptions on him.
Someone out there will like his frugality?He's still single.................
He's definitely not for me.
Money is not everything but I believe if one has the power to earn a decent salary every month, why can't one spend a few couple bucks and enjoy good quality times with friends?

QUIT
Needless to say, I've quitted at the private practice within 5 minutes of meeting with the Boss.
This is how he begin with the conversation:
Boss:" I think this is not working out. And I think it's a waste of time for you to be here and not many patients booked in. But some patients do like you. You are better off to work in the hospital where your interest is."
Me (listening to his conversation intensively):" That's ok with me. I've already given some thoughts into it. Working in the hospital is not easy to get the job." - What the *uck he has the right to tell me where to work. Totally none of his business anyway.
Boss:" well, you can stop working today or whenever."
Me:" sounds good. I aint got a problem with that. That's it."
Gotta go since my last patient is here waiting for me.
What kind of boss he is to just "delete" me off like this. As I've mentioned earlier on, I always feel there is an unpleasant intense working with his wife. And his looks give me creep and now I am having goose bumps when I think of it.
Right now, I feel a lot happier and less uptight or should I say, no more ironing the stupid uniform. I've asked the patients before whether he can identify who is who working in the clinic. The receptionists wear a lighter blue and opposed to a podiatrist. The colour contrast makes no difference.
After treating the last patient, his wife claimed the boss wanted to speak to me. *oh my god, no more 'lectures'. Anyway, I just gave an excuse that I need to leave for another job in the afternoon. Can't be bothered to stay on and listen to craps. The only thing I've learnt here is having my patience level built up.
Seriously thinking, he 'pampered' the patients too much. It's like teaching a child from a start. If a child cries, you gave him a sweet to subside the wails. If the child cries louder, you probably end up giving in double. In this way, a child will never let you take control of him/her.
Poor Friend F suffered from some hives on her skin. Drove to get some meds for her. Damn those anti-histamines are so expensive. 7 Tabs for AUST$13.50!!?? Anyway, I understand the misery of having hives where it can just mess up your day doing nothing but itch.

Confusion
Firstly, she said I have stayed in Perth so long and would know the roads a lot better. But when I commented that I should go home first (by judging the route which our common friend took) , she was so defensive and insisted that we should send to her destination first. At this point, I should have shut up, not going against her. Sometimes I do realise that it's hard to convince people the truth even you jolly know THAT's the truth. It's even harder to convince when one is not even in the shoes of a driver.
Well, I've been driving since the age of 19 and more or less, is better off as compared to a novice driver.
It just doesn't make sense and wasting my time blabbering for pete's sake.
The problem with her is she don't listen -properly enough. She will only listen to people whom she think can advise her well. Probably that's where our communication always break down. I am also unsure is it because I am trying to hard to console her or whatever. To the point, I keep reminding myself to draw a line across to avoid treating her too nicely.
I do feel sorry for her too when things get hiccups and sometimes, you just wish if only she takes your advice much earlier on. Now, this is the shi* part.
'kindness doesn't pay"- Is this statement true or not?
Tomorrow the usual gang will be watching a movie. I think I'll keep my mouth shut whether if things go wrong or not.

It just doesn't make sense and wasting my time blabbering for pete's sake.
The problem with her is she don't listen -properly enough. She will only listen to people whom she think can advise her well. Probably that's where our communication always break down. I am also unsure is it because I am trying to hard to console her or whatever. To the point, I keep reminding myself to draw a line across to avoid treating her too nicely.
I do feel sorry for her too when things get hiccups and sometimes, you just wish if only she takes your advice much earlier on. Now, this is the shi* part.
'kindness doesn't pay"- Is this statement true or not?
Tomorrow the usual gang will be watching a movie. I think I'll keep my mouth shut whether if things go wrong or not.

Evil nurse & weekend randoms
Friday:
Drove down to Mandura approximately about 75kms from Perth. The volunteer (as a receptionist) was late and I thought I might to juggle in between treating the patients, making appointments and collecting money or even handling phonecalls. I find that all the volunteers are really queer. They make comments about me in front of the patients after i've treated them. " Gee, she is rather quick in her treatments." "She is running ahead of time". Wondering what the f*ck is wrong with these people. I am quick because there is nothing abnormally wrong in your feet. Next, I wanna be on time and NOT losing time if possible. Each patient are entitled 20 minutes of care only. I can't really bothered talking back to the volunteer which besides, she is quite old enough. I don't to be labelled as a elderly bully for whatever sh*t reasons.
Saturday:
Since Christmas is just around the corner, I decided to work on Saturday. Going to the country Northam 95km east of Perth. I've been there twice and I didn't take a country road map with me. Based on memory for as far as I can recall, I managed to find my way there without too much fuss. The highlight of my blog started here: This bad nurse from a nursing home asked me to remove my stuffs off HER trolley. She sounded rather desperate so I let her have her way then. Next, telling me off rudely to see a patient on the OTHER side of nursing home. With her inital incorrigible behaviour/manners, I just told her that I'll see how it goes later. Advised to put a dressing on that lady's toe first and someone is coming to the nursing home to work on following monday too. Later, she brought in another staff and asked me to repeat what I've said so that she ca document it down that i refused to see the patient. At this point, she is driving me to the maximum limit of my patience. I told her off to write whatever she wants while in my mind, i've already decided to see the patient later. She is just too much..........then again, her husband probably didn't give her a good night ...that's why.
This is what I wrote in the paitent's note as showed partially:" Informed by a rude nurse to see this patient urgently........
HMPH* sorry I don't take craps and I also don't expect people to take mine.
Dinner was with Dave and his beloved. The dinner was great but it was rather a chilly night where the girls are seen wearing their tubes and skimpy skirts battling against the cold weather. Losers.
Sunday:
Woke up late but still have time to dress up for a lunch date with other fellow podiatrists. It was great meeting other people (all ladies) while enjoying a succulent WA seafood risotto and chocolate panacotta with pistacio bacalva...plus..too many glasses of champagne and wines.
Feeling sleepy...

Kah-Ching Ching!
Off today because there is only one patient in the private clinic. Might as well re -scheduled the pt then. I am not willing to go all the way to see just one client. With the bling bling starts to roll into my account, (WIDE GRIN) I decided to go for an Xmas spree.
First checkpoint is at Marko warehouse where everything is 20% off today. Bought toilet rolls, paper rolls, xmas chocs, hair conditioner, toothbrush, chewing gums, diary, cards, earrings only come up to an amount of $18. Hee hee! I've been good though where I didn't spend any money on clothes. Wanna save up the money for post christmas sale instead.
Things I want for Christmas (revised edition):
1) Shoes from ZU ( saw a pair of flats in soft green colour/pink also nice....)
2) Levis jean - so difficult to find a pair of jeans in any decent brands in fact.
3) USB
4) Earrings/Brooch - I like anything from Sportsgirl
5) Tote Bag - For work use
6) clinque eye cream SPF15 - only avaliable in Australia
Sounds like a typical girlie who can't get enough of those stuffs.
Booked for my last facial and hair appointments of the year.
Going to work in Country for the next 2 days...gotta sleep early tonight.... :<

Singaporeans are being sympathetic enough or not?
Perhaps not.
I do read the news online back home and there is almost always a small part of the article or actions as described which is indicated by the public are viewed as unsympathetic. (or maybe the word empathic should come in here too).
On a recent post from Straits Time newspaper, the volunteers of ex-leprosy patients are looking for a decent resturant to celebrate the upcoming christmas festive season. In fact, they took weeks to find the makan place who is willing to take in such "people". To my disgust, one of the owners who has been intereviewed of why he refused the "offer" simply because he is running a business. So what if he is running a business, the patients are EX-leprosy and it's unlike going around to infect his potential customers. People seem to be quick in their judgements after hearing the first sentence /keyword - leprosy. Maybe one day he will get his own taste of 'medicine'. It's quite disappointing of seeing how Singaporeans only care for themselves especially on their personal gains.
Part 2:
Bloody housemate had the air conditioning on even though it's only MAX:27 degrees today. I think either he has a hormonal problem or he's too pampered. He can't even take care of himself - no cook, no drive, no wash clothes for ages,gaining weight. He's one of the most lazy ass-s I've ever seen. No help out of the house AT ALL. Well, some people are just born filthy rich and think he has the world by himself. Not eating sour grape syndrome but I feel sorry for him instead if he does have such thought.
Part3:
So dreadful going to work today. The patient arrived at 9am instead of 8am. The receptionist didn't ring me and I just hang around trying to keep myself awake while waiting. I am getting very very restless working in that practice. So BORING.

Bhangra Night
Anna, Kelvin and myself (the fellow Perthians) went to Fremantle for an exclusive Bhangra Street dancing. S couldn't come but I guess that makes Kel feels a lot more at ease ever since the last (very trival) incident that happened few days ago. All of us had such a fun and wild night dancing on the streets with a few occasional Aborigines loafters around. Anna just couldn't stand the "smell" of them. What can I say when they are "born" and "bred" in bush while attempting to live in the real civilisation world. From there , one get to see all different races get together shaking their hips and doing the twisting moments with the wrists. And of course, the indians guru themselves would do the more bollywood type of dance - pretending to be a palm tree in the centre with a couple moving around it.
We had a break over at Benny's Bar. We just couldn't stop constantly joking around and share our amusing tips on travelling. As you can see, all these friends I made are from a travel website. Travellers like us who enjoy putting up pics and tips of places where we have been. That's what the website is all about (www.virtualtourist.com)
I've still got more 'gossips' coming up shortly..need to take a nap.

Strangle or struggle?
Out of the blue, Adam, Sophie and myself get together for a coffee session. It was all going all right until Sophie took away Adam's phone -think she wants to play around. Adam indicated that there are some personal stuffs in the phone but at this point, Sophie doesn't seem to get the indication: "Some personal in my phone so please respect". It's true that Sophie as verberlized that she doesn't mind people looking through her phone but everyone is different! Each individual needs to be treated with at least some respect. So I can't blame Adam totally while he tried to get back his phone , the table slightly topped over which in turns, causing Sophie's phone to slid off from her bag and *thud*. Her phone just landed on the floor and a small dent is formed on the top corner of phone.
Is heaven trying to being fair for one or another?
From that moment, I can tell Sophie was pissed with her arms folded plus the whole conversation simply ended.I was the one who is trying to be a peace (pace) maker between both of them. Basically, if Sophie gets the hint earlier on and returns the phone to him, such things will not happen.
I didn't tell her all these because this is all on my perspective. Additionally, she doesn't have to listen to my craps like this.
I did reassure Adam that it will sound "silly" if Sophie doesn't get over with the damage on that inanimate object.
Had being sandwiched....bah* Anyway, I know I'll be heartache if my 2 month old phone kena "accident". Then again, what can one do? If I seriously don't kick a big fuss, I don't think I'll show symptoms on my face. As for Sophie's case, her non-verbal cues just gave it away no doubt she said she has forgotten the whole thing.
Sandwiched stuffs aside, I just grant a wish for a Malay girl under the Boys Bridget Programme of buying a set of stationery online. Feel so happy and hope she likes it :)
If I got more money later, i'll probably get a hamper for an elderly folk.

Enjoying every moment
Met up with Steff last Wed. Each time when we go out, we can never have enough korean food at Kim Chee House (@Northbridge). She always commented I am so quiet when the food arrived. What can I say coz' it is simply too yummy. Next, we walked a couple of rounds to "lessen" the fullness on our tums. Had "modified" ice kanchang at Eutopia...so ex as compared to Singapore. I miss ice jelly back home!! ;<>
Brought Deepa for shopping on Thursday. Almost late while picking her up because the road was closed and had to make a detour. Bloody **** people always close the road at unusual time. Don't they understand it's peak hour traffic - after hours?? Was raining so heavily at the same time that even the fastest speed of the wipers can't help it. I spend about $50 bucks on 3 tops. All sparky ones .....uh oh.Sense of guilt of spending money coming in.Plus, I saw a few earrings that look soo nice. About 3 of them in total.Hmmm.... After shopping, we went to makan makan eat the nasi branyni. What the? The makan cafe has run out of the rice and Fish Curry. Nescafe Tarik supposed to be nice to drink but not anymore when it's too bitter *bleah- where is the bag* Deepa was asking me if I want to go Auckland next year. I wish I can for skiing during winter! OMG, I've still got Darwin, Sydney and Cairns to cover.
Oh I've started my savings account with the high interest rate one. Hee.
This weekend is gonna be interesting I hope. KIV pubbing tonight and more shopping/clubbing tomorrow. KIV sunday Swan valley. How exciting!

"Fly aeroplane"
Firstly, Girlfriend F asked me to let her know (in regardless of email, sms way) if I wanna go out on Tuesday night and I did replied her this early morning. Right now, I suppose I am not going anywhere tonight since I didn't get her reply for at least out of courtesy sake.How am I suppose to take her messages seriously the next time? On the other hand, I can never comprehend the messages she typed on MSN. It just doesn't make sense at all. Neither am I trying to judge her academics, it will make things a lot easier for me even with the most simplest and shortest sentences.
Enough of crap.That's the thing - I cared too much for people's lives. Why I am making my life so "miserable" just because others are.
Worked at Senior Centre this morning. This elderly lady can't thank me enough for getting rid of her in-grown nail bit and pieces ." What can I do without you?" Feel so flattered. HEEHEE. My body feels so lethargic as the weather's getting hotter and hotter. I just want my nap after work.
One local hospital from Singapore approached me if I wanna work for them. Decisions decisions....arrghh**

Life is not just overcoming one hurdle.
Sunday:
Woke up in the late morning to meet Deepa for Bridget Jones movie. For those who haven't watched, the ending is Bridget married Mr Darcy *lol*Come and kill me then, readers ;p
Had korean BBQ chicken for late lunch and cocktails in the evening. This cocktail called Japanese Slipper whereby it consists of Midori, pineapple, lemon and dunno what else. To think about it, I had this Valention Blue which I reckon it's one of the best and soothing drink for me.
Unfornately Anna can't come along for that day as one of her close family friends is really sick at the hospital.
Watched Australia Idol finale!! Casey is the winner as I've guessed it earlier on.
Today:
Suddenly I feel my world is filled with some ultimate sad people. Spoke to Anna on MSN this afternoon and she told me she feels shitty at work. Lack of concentration the whole day because of the bad news on the family friend.
On the lighter note, I hope Eli would try to refrain herself to compare her other friends. There is a chinese saying :" Ren Pi Ren , Qi Si Ren." Direct translation is the more you compare, the more frustration builds onto you.I don't see the objective of why people wanna compare. Ocassionaly/Casual comparison is not too bad which can act as a source of motivation to produce better results for one self. As for Eli's case, I find her taking comparisions far off too seriously. That's why it backfired and caused more sadness which probably will sink into depression if she doesn't cope well.
F is another g.f of mine who just recently broke up with her b.f. In fact, she should have ditched him much earlier on. No doubt she is a nice g.f to me, but I wish her life is less screwed. I can't say or comment much as this will only hurt one's feelings. There are a lot of times I wish she would think before she act. For instance, going out with a dude with kids on the verge of seperation. Just because his (ex)-wifey has a b.f and it's ok for him to have a g.f too. From my point of view, the ex wifey is being a dumb to get herself into this. And so, my g.f shouldn't have agreed follow the "blind". I understand my g.f's love for the kids but I am not sure what kind of hopes is my g.f pinning on that dude.....
Thank goodness for blog where I can just vomit everything which can't be said it out.

Money Saver
Drove to Mandura yesterday to work at a senior citizen's centre. Time taken to reach there approximately an hour or so. Quite fun driving to places which I've never been before. Mandura is more a place for the retirees to stay and big big expensive houses cost like 400,000AUST. On my way back, there is this forest bush fire along the freeway (highway as you call it in Singapore). Driving through a thick misty fog of smoke along the freeway was kinda....excited. *lol* Thank goodness I manage to make it through the freeway before it shut down to prevent danger threats to vehicle drivers.
Went online yesterday and signed up for money savers with Citibank. Who can resists a 5.4% interest rate? Can't wait to submit my application but first, must get my dentist babe to be my referee. So all i need is to dump some money into my account every month and it's well-worth it rather than put the bling into the normal savings account.
Donny left for singapore yesterday and gonna meet Deepa (from Adelaide) and Anna for bridget jones movie. As for today.....perhaps I should go to the mall and chill out. And perhaps, going for a jog later if I am not being a lazy bum.

Full on my tum tum
Donny from Brissy came to Perth for a short holi cum visiting his cousin for almost a week. He is certainly a real 'housemaid' where he is indeed excellent in cooking and household chores. In fact, for my past few days' dinner is usually settled at his cousin's place. Too much good food and I am beginning to notice my waistline starts to wobble again. Then again, D is taken up by his Swiss b.f. So that goes off for another domestic potential partner for the guys out there. Dinner menu on Monday is yong tau fu, Tuesday is Mexican Tacos and Tortilla with tomato soup and as for today was pumpkin soup, Russian Salad plus honey baked chicken. *burp* Feels really happy to have friends/visitors coming to Perth. D and myself did a session of Karaoke and more shopping to come.
Recap on last Saturday:
Meet up with a few peeps from Virtualtourist.com. The main icons of that night were Deepa - a finance consultant orignate from Malaysia but travelling around Australia for work. Kelvin is a final year psychology student. Grins* He thought I was only 21. Guess the beauty products do have an enormous effect on my face ;p Together with Anna, all of us had a great night out with yummy food and partee @Metros. Dancing with Deepa was like *wow, she's a hot mama along with her various sexy movements. I bet Kel was trying not to perspire too much if he can. Fantastic nightout I must say. Keep in view to meet on this Friday for more drinking session.
Sunday:
Gone crazy with the cycling trip where we started to ride from my place to the cotteslow beach. Took us about about an hour more to get there. Of course, first thing is to jump into the seawater for a dip. Phew. NO sore quadriceps this time. I was still kinda tired from recuperating NOT enough on Metro's post nightout.
Donny from Brissy came to Perth for a short holi cum visiting his cousin for almost a week. He is certainly a real 'housemaid' where he is indeed excellent in cooking and household chores. In fact, for my past few days' dinner is usually settled at his cousin's place. Too much good food and I am beginning to notice my waistline starts to wobble again. Then again, D is taken up by his Swiss b.f. So that goes off for another domestic potential partner for the guys out there. Dinner menu on Monday is yong tau fu, Tuesday is Mexican Tacos and Tortilla with tomato soup and as for today was pumpkin soup, Russian Salad plus honey baked chicken. *burp* Feels really happy to have friends/visitors coming to Perth. D and myself did a session of Karaoke and more shopping to come.
Recap on last Saturday:
Meet up with a few peeps from Virtualtourist.com. The main icons of that night were Deepa - a finance consultant orignate from Malaysia but travelling around Australia for work.

Career path
Went to Foothills suburb to watch my fellow colleague Cara to perform a nail surgery on this adolescent boy. Quite fun to see how the nail being partially 'ripped' off due to in grown (think the side of the nail starts digging in instead of growing straight). And also Cara was nice to let me to inject some local anasthetics on her skinny big toe. Can't wait to get my own nail surgery set so that I can start on some prisoners. *wide grin*
C is going to UK to work next April *sob sob* I wish I can follow her!! To come to think of it. I've planned to stay one more year in Australia (till end of 2005) before going back SG. In fact, within the one year, it doesn't really matter where I am. Quite tempting to go Uk and work even for 4-6 months. As one knows how expensive travelling in UK/Europe can be. Indeed, my job allows me to travel anywhere possible. Perhaps, I'll think about it after I get my permanent residency.
Christmas is coming! The best part of Christmas isn't on that day itself. It's the wrapping up gifts for friends' part. Ha ha! I've got 3 Xmas present to wrap and I reckon........there will be about 5 more to come. Think I can be Miss Santa judging from my generosity. MUHAHAHA.
Going to cook dinner before suffering from hypoglycaemia.

Denium Skirt
Went to the mall and I tried on this short A-line denium skirt which costs only $15. Should I buy or not?
If I buy it means I gotta watch how I sit or not even taking a bus in Singapore. But I like it coz it fits well on moi.
Decisions decisions decisions ......gurrrrls.....*eyes roll up*
Can't wait for cycling trip again this Sunday. Feel like a putting bubble wrap on the seat so that i'll not suffer from butt pain again.
Talking to my bro now. He just got to know a new friend (he claimed that girl look like Belinda Lee. God knows who she is since I've been away from home for so long) working as a hairstylist. Tee hee, at least I know someone can revamp my hair at a discount rate. I am quite tempting to cut my hair to chin-length bob.

Belgium Chocs
I am falling in love with the shell-shaped chocs. uh oh, just can't stop eating. Worked half a day today and nothing else. Slept through the whole afternoon and god knows why I am so tired. Rainy weather and sunshine at the same time which can literally drive someone's mood to sink into the bed (that's me!). Chatted with bro last night on MSN and hope that he can get me a Ministry of Sound album chillout session 6. Teehee.
6 more weeks to Christmas. I've managed to get a list of people for Xmas gifts. Donny will be coming to Perth end of this week! I just can't wait for his arrival and paint the town red. Dying for a karaoke session and Hip-E club on next Tue.
Meanwhile, I am checking the flight rates of going to Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra with Mom for next year. And again, I can't wait for my holidays to come.
Other places to venture in 2005 includes: Darwin (Northern Territory) and Cairns. See, that's where most of my $ go to. But I know it's worth it in the end.
X'mas wish list:
1) set of roxy bikinis
2) USB with MP3 player
3) MAC/Bobbi Brown/Prescriptive Makeup
4) SPA treats
5) Rxxxx watch
6) A pair of Levis
.............better stop now just in case the list gets longer.

Changed BlogSkin
This is just a testing testing of my new skin. Not sure how to enlarge those fonts but I'll work that out tomorrow.
I missed home a lot recently. Missing my lovie g.fs, parents, and I managed to talk to Linda (from my sec school) recently on MSN which was a great feeling! It's been such a long time that we managed to catch up at all. Thanks to Shuming and this young lady is going to be a bride in coming December! Whee!
Working through almost middle of November already! Hopefully by this time of next year, I'll be packing my stuffs and head back to SG.
Gave KH a few tips on how to spend his time with g.f while holidaying in SG. See, any one who ever be my boyfriend can never get bored. *grinning* I am someone who can't simply stay still and do nothing.
Why do I always cry on shows like Dr Phil, Oprah, advertisements on donation to the poors or any touchy moments on TV?? *grrr* I sounded like a 'jelly'. So weak and vulnerable that I am going to get 'smashed' at any time. BUT hey, my favourite type of shows (beside Queer eye for the straight guy) are often CSI and Law &Order. Solving mysteries , forensic science for evidence based and powerful speaking from the attorneys.

Butt Pain
I had a fantastic cycling trip riding organised by Freda. Joining us on the trip includes Micheal (F's fencing instructor) and Tracy (F' s friend). We started off at the uni and the ride continued all the way to South Perth, and up on the bridge towards the city , passed by the Swan bell towers, and towards Causeway. Lunch break was at Hungry Jacks and of course, we had a fair share of jokes and rubbish talks. Then we proceeded to send T off home where we had to ride back to the uni and also had a rest at my place before we head back to M's place. Freda wanna learn rollerblading from M. In fact, she has done pretty well as she can now serving drinks to us wearing the blades. Good on her! Nursing with ice on a bruise located on my shin coz I hit on the trailer which I didn't notice initially. No more pretty with a patch of black zone now......
After that, it's back to Freda's place so that I can pick up my car. Gosh* I have been on the bike since 9am till 4pm. My a** is soo sore ;<>
On the 2nd part of this blog, I have been told on 3 consecutive days by a different person that "I need or I should have a b.f ." Is that a sign that my life is getting too lame or bored for others to even see through? In fact, I am not opening up my feelings as easily as before........too insecure perhaps.

Accused
While waiting for the next client to come, I recalled boss said I didn't do a good job on a previous patient. To recap, he claimed that I didn't treated her corn on her right 5th toe properly which eventually leads to a small ulcer formation. So I decided to pull out her file and have a read.
Guess what? She came in each time complaining of sore 5th toe plus the previous pod (and myself) has given her some protector to wear on the toe in order to prevent excessive friction/pressure on the area itself. Whether she wears it faithfully or not, she would know best herself. Anyway, I felt that the boss is 'accusing' me of not being competent enough to treat such basic stuffs like CORN. He would want me to demonstrate my basics well enough that I may start getting initial consultations on the patient.
Here I am dying to learn from my mistakes and yet I wasn't given enough opportunites to do so.
I am getting a bit restless each time when I step into the clinic...........not happy ;o(
Working tomorrow at the 'pigsty's ' senior centre tomorrow. Gross..........

Bedtime
I need to be more discipline and no more getting in bed at late hours!Bleah* Feel so dreadful going to work in the morning. The receptionist didn't ring me the day before that the 1st client is arriving at 8.40am instead of 8am. So I was there exceptionally early and hang around the clinic reading a book till the client arrived. How bored can it be. Confronted the boss to let me have more patients for initial consultations. Then again, he seemed to be quite reluctant. He expects me in the sense that to prove to him that clients want to see me more often on their consecutive treatments. And I commented that the majority of the clients I've seen are elderly folks with continuing palliative nail care treatments only. Also, I stressed on the importance of getting experiences from seeing a variety of clients and expand my knowledge from there if possible. He sounded so unconvinced where he wanted me to 'master' the basic of nail care and even came up with an example of me not dealing well with a corn on the patient.
What/when exactly is the' right 'way to learn?
I can't possibly wait till the patients to indicate to see me for next follow ups. I can understand why he refused to give me any patients which just in case I screw up along the way and patients never come back again.
If that's the case, I can never get a chance to learn. Perhaps it's time to say good bye once the contracts end in March. Just can't wait for now...........
Crappy day: long distance's drive to the prison, headache, neck pain, lethargic

Holiday
I am so looking forward for a decent break. After finishing my 2nd degree in June and jumping straight to full time working, a distress 'signal' seems to be hitting on my mind lately. A nice one week gateaway would be lovely to escape from work and PERTH.
Mom rang me this afternoon saying that my whole family may be coming over for this coming Christmas holiday.Whoopie, that means I probably can do a short trip with family to Kalgoorlie (approx 500++ kms East of Perth).
On the other hand, I am looking for another new job in a private practice if possible. The private clinic which I am working doesn't give me much job satisfaction and seriously, I am learning 'inadequately'. Basically my objectives are not met after having to work there for more than half a year. No surgery clients, no inital consultation (prob like 2-3 so far) and only elderly folks for me.
Don't feel a sense of challenge going on. Moreover, still must wear uniforms. I must stress at this point that I am only working in a small private practice and not a large medical centre. I don't see the rationale of wearing uniforms. There are only 2 podiatrists there (boss and myself) where we don't work at the same time. And still, I got to wear this 'factory outlet lookalike' 3/4 sleeved working check dark blue shirt while receptionist wears a light blue check shirt. In fact, the colour tone doesn't make any difference to me. Such a waste of money. On the other hand, the clinic has this pressure mat to determine which part of your foot indicated the highest pressure. I am not sure how crucial is this piece of information is going to help in the diagnosis. I rather chose to record a person's gait and analyzes it over a slow motion mode. Hence, this will also be able to produce a general overview of the alignment of whole body. The hallway at the clinic isn't that fantastic either Hence, that makes it even harder to observe a person's gait at a lesser distance.
One sickening boss has been owning me some pay since August till now. Confronted by his secretary today that she will remind him again about the pay. She gave the 'excuses' that he is out of the country and so? That's none of my business and all i care is to pay my rent on time and not suffering from hunger. If I didn't get my cheque by this week, I am going to march into his clinic and demand for it. Shame on him being the president of xxx. Not going too much details but he just annoys me so much. All I can say is he is spoiling his own image or perhaps he doesn't even care for a small 'fry' like me. Thank goodness I didn't work for him for long or else I just have to live on maggie mee with an egg everyday.
Any ideas of getting back my pay are more than welcome on the tagboard.
