Dan Ku Ku ( in hokkein - means wait very long)
As you can see me being the only sole foot pracitioner in the xxx organisation, I'm working doubly (or rather triply) hard to accomodate all the patients booked in that day. Unlike in polyclinics, there are several drs working together to control the massive crowds of patients.
It is not unusual the patients still have to wait for their turns to be seen despite of long waiting hours.
For the last couple of days, I'm sinking into no-lunch-breaks habit due to overloading of clients that have been booked in much earlier. Patients ended up making noises at the counters and complained why do they have to wait for more than 2 hours for their appointments. *blah blah blah*. Surprisingly, I also do have a couple of patients who really appreciate the services and doesn't mind about the hours of wait. Amazing.
Especially for all the patients, this would my top 10 list -of -things to do while waiting for your Queue number to be flashed on screen:
1) Once you obtain your queue number, check with your receptionist how many more patients prior your turn. Then you can choose to approximate your time to do your stuffs while waiting.
2) Go have breakfast, brunch, or lunch but making sure that you don't end up returning late to the clinic.
3) Bring your own newspaper from Straits time to Lian He Zao bao and Newpaper. If you can afford to bring all 3 , better still as one cannot tell exactly if the appointment is to be seen on time or not.
4) Get an ipod or Mp3 player to kill the boredom
5) Get a few friends to come and play boardgames
6) Internet wireless for surfin online (You tube, entertainment websites etc..)
7) Do your own manicure or pedicure in a toilet cubicle
8) Pacing up and down - I guess that's what most locals enjoy doing .Not bad, maybe can also help to improve the blood circulation by abit
9) Do crossword puzzle or sodoku (?spell)
10) Continue to wait and practise meditation ;p Ouhmmmmmmmmmmm.

Why men in my family won't listen
My pa is a 50yish plump 'old' man who is putting himself at risk of heart disease and diabetes melluitis with his crappy diet.
I've educated him on his diet regime (ya know simple things like, eat with good proportion amount, have meals at regular timing, eat more vegs less meat....etc)
The hardest part is to get his butt up and exercise. I don't know how many times I have said to him that one day, all my earnings will be spent on your multiple disease treatments.From then I will end up being an old hag coz' no timeout for myself. hurhur.
I don't know what else I can do to help. Pa is not a little kid but seems to take health for granted. Sigh*
The other man in my family is my bro who is currently in his early 20s. Execeptionally ignorant and childish I must say. Told him the importance of using sunscreen on his premature winkling but he insisted that it's too thick.
Wah liew, not as if asking him to apply the KAYA on his face what.
Sigh* Don't know la. Maybe ignorance is a bliss.

You've been warned
During one of the meetings, the supervisor brought up the topic on blogging. He emphasized that anyone who blogs in this xx organisation should be done discreetly and ensured that all written contents should not have directed to the organisation itself.
Just because someone in some departments so 'buay zi dong '(inconsiderate), his/her blog was found out by a customer who was astonished to read on how the blog was written in such a factual manner.
*sigh* ccb to that he-she lah.
I enjoy blogging leh....how!?!?
****************************
I'm thankful for each day that has passed without any rubbish clients. Most of the time, I do think that most Singaporeans seem to be like living in a big box. So secured and comfortable. What's worst, they have been Pampered And Pampered (;p) so much.

Childhood Peng Yew (friend)
I discovered my childhood friend , who is a medical officer, works at the same hospital at me!!Fwah, probably I've not seen her since our last PSLE exam.
HURHUR.
Since I need an antibiotic prescription for a diabetic patient who suffered from ingrown toenail with pus oozing out +++, I knocked on her door and politely greeted Dr Tay.
To sidetrack a little, getting Drs to write an antibiotic prescriptions for my patients can be quite a pain in the a**. Some may do it kindly. Some may want you to suck up. Some even want to charge patients consultations for just the prescriptions.
Me: Hi Dr Tay! Is it ok with you to prescribe some antibiotics for this diabetic patient with ingrown toenail plus pus ++.
I got pic to show you
*pose the ingrown pic on my digicam to her*
Dr Tay: Oh, ok. No allergies uh.
Me: No, he doesn't have any. *wide grin*
Dr Tay: eh you look familar leh. Are you from RG Pri?
Me: uh, you look familar too. But I wasn't sure if you are the person whom I know.
Dr Tay: Your looks still the same. That's why I can recognise you.
Me: *HEEHEE* We'll catch up again soon.
My Sk2 beauty therapy is sure working its way.

Stab HR
I find those people exceptionally deserving zero respect from me. Firstly, they processed my job application only at the very last minute. Never mind.
Secondly, I was informed to start work within weeks after they've announced on my successful employment with the organization. Eh, I'm relocating from one country to another. Not Jurong to Tampines leh. Neber mind.
Thirdly, my name stamp took more than a month to be ready and all those times I've been writing my name in full (which is a requirement on all clinical notes) repeatedly till I'm so fed up. Ok, not only just clinical notes, there are referral forms, charge forms, letters......etc
In addition, the information stated on my namecard were not acknowledged by me prior printing. For instance, let's just say that you are physiotherapist. These are your recognised qualifications from a reputable Australian university listed like this:
B Sc (physiotherapy)
B Sc (human movement and rehabilitation)
Obviously, one would chose to list down the 2 degrees (especially they are relevant in healthcare) on a namecard and I don't see any reason WHY should the HR listed only B Sc (physio).
Personally, I do pay attention on the details printed on the namecards. It does provide me vital information about that particular person in terms of experiences, education and training that he/she has gone through. Then again, isn't that the purpose of the name card??
Grrrrrrrrrrrr....... whatever, I'm looking for an excuse to throw away my namecards.

1 more day to go.......
Nothing much has planned for the B day. So kind of bro to get me a bottle of Hugo's women parfume.

*While I was unpacking my room the other day, I saw this drawing which I took part in a art competition. That was when I was only Primary 2 lor!!!
" A little thought means so much" - is this applicable to most Singaporeans? Probably not anymore.
On the contrary, I had 2 unpleasant experiences when I was queuing up. Firstly I was lining up behind the 2 ladies to use the toilet. Out of nowhere, this middle- aged Auntie rushed up to me and said 'EXCUSE ME'. Cheeb** la. I rolled up my eyes and hope she did see me doing that.
Second incident took place in a M1 mobile shop. Dad and myself were standing behind a family of 3. When it was our turn, this Malay macik (auntie) said the same thing 'EXCUSE ME , we are here first'. What the f***?! Doesn't mean she carry a Fendi bag means she can bully others with status. Frigging rude to the core! The family wasn't queuing up at all in the first place and I can see them was browsing the phones in the showcases instead.
Singapore may be a well-advanced country with its high technology services. It's the PEOPLE. Only if the people would engage in basic courtesy manners and stop taking advantages at other's expenses, it would have been (slightly) much better place to live.
**************
I wish I can yell out to the civil servants. Just because the government pays for your health services doesn't mean you can abuse them and ask for more than what you are entitled to be.

On the road
My mom decided to drive over my auntie's place for a new year visit. I was abit hesistant when mom said she'll be the one driving while worrying about the hazardous condition on the rainy weather.
Since she was waiting to make a right turn after the lorry has went past, she scolded KNNCCB just because the lorry decided to make a 'last minute' turn.
My mom is si beh happening lor.
*************
Do I have to address the doctors by Dr XXX?
VN said if I don't address them by Dr XXX (especially in Asia), the Dr will feel as though they earn the title for nothing. Some even may be upset or becoming 'small gas' (particular) over it. Sigh* So used to call Ds by their first names. Too much glory is given to Drs here already.Hierarchy value is over- emphasized and unfortunately, that's what happen everywhere in Asia.
On the contrary, pts here have been calling me Dr A. Is it because I hold a scalpel and doing debridement look as if I'm a Lo Kun (dr). hurhur. Wasting my time explaining which I'll rather let them call me a Dr then. At least I'll get their respect which will make my treatment plan at a more soothing pace.

I had my 22 yo old looking passport pic on my staff card. The assistant nurse said I looked too virgin (innocent and pure)

Return the innocence
I have no idea with the previous staffs who had worked in same room where I'm at ,doesn't appear to be interested in cleanliness. I've shifted a few furnitures in the clinical room and my assistant nurse commented that it's definitely look much more spacious and bright.
Since the dust on the floor needed to be cleaned, the nurse rang up the housekeeping and asked for a cleaner. While I was busy looking after the outpatients, the nurse rang up again to remind the housekeeping. The most unbelievable thing is the dark-skinned looking cleaner may get a warning letter from the supervisor for being not doing her job promptly.
I mean, is it necessary for the matter to be blow up way out of proportion?
I can't understand which Cb supervisor can be so hard up about cleaning the room 'on the dot' especially when I've got patients in and out of the room. Timing is an essential factor lah.
I feel sorry for the cleaner and the worst case scenerii I can think of is I hope she doesn't lose her job because of this.

You see You see
My dad insisted me to pay for his new nokia phone. Since he has complained that I've yet giving him an ang pow, I agreed to his request. -_-
Sayonara to my bling bling. As I'm a new staff at the workplace, my paycheck will be differ from the rest for the first month.
Sunday
*Will be reserved for my swimming date with Bro. We've decided to keep our latte- skinned intact by keeping fit under the sun at least once in a week.
*Bro dropped me off at the train station. Was dressed in a white tank top and short skirt. Plus my red havanias thongs. Not exactly sure which part of the Singapore mall I want to explore. Rang up Sue and settled to meet up at City Hall.
Wah seh! The market place has changed so so much. More shops than the last time I went? Perhaps.
*Then it's MRT to Orchard and met up with CC. I reckon we've only met up less than 10 times for the years I've studied in Oz while she in the UK. It was a great catch up though.
Thanks for the cuppa treat babe!
*MRT again to Douby Ghaut. Hang around at Plaza Sing till Sab came. Mr Civic came and picked us up to Hark Cafe where Sab's friend was participating in a chinese song singing contest. The place was packed with most of the supporters of various singing competitors. Taught Sab to order a Tequlia sunrise and a bottle of Heneiken for me.
MONDAY
* I still feel very tired after work. I don't know what I'm lacking of in my life. Maybe it's just a transition or adjustment.
*sigh*
Oh someone jio (aksed) me to gym tomorrow -which can be a good thing.

7th day of Lunar New Year
Work has been exceptionally busy till I hardly have any energy left to meet up with friends at knock off times. I need more time to allow myself to get accustomed to the busy (and sedentary) lifestyle for most Singaporeans. I've almost break the record of seeing the most paitents per day to the point that sometimes, I ended up reaching home at 7pm.
what's more, I've still left 2 boxes of nitty gritty stuffs to unpack.
Ke sian*
Chinese New Year Day 1
There was an overflow of relatives such that the chairs in my house were inadequate to cater their butts ;p There are quite a few new born nephews and nieces whom I've not met before.
Did I mention my dad has 13 siblings in total?
Chinese New year Day 2
Over and out to Johore to stay overnight at my granny's place. Found out I've got few more newborn nephews and nieces again. Brought some medical tools over and gave my granny a 'pedicure' with her callus debrided on 2nd toe as well. With her thickened nails, there's no way an ordinary clipper will do the job. Cousin D brought us to eat mee soto and prata leh. I like! Cheap and delicious.
My dad got into his menopause moods while we were on the way back from Malaysia. He got so fed up with my bro and I once he found we attempted to home some gums and DVDS.
So bo liao. -_-
***********************
Having to work for two weeks, there are a number of patients trying to give me ang pows. Gosh, it wasn't appropriate for me to accept it but as certain patients can be quite persistent with their givings. Of course, all these ang pows has to be sent and reported to the head in charge.
Suddenly, I craved for a bottle of Heneiken.

Cheena New year
I reckon my mom is going to suffer from anxiety attacks anytime soon on chinese new year preparations. Gosh! wish she can take things abit more relax. I can't think of anything else more to do but buying new year goodies and cleaning the house. This year is no exception that I'll be leaving for M'sia to visit my granny on the 2nd day of Lunar new year.
*Did I mention Barffie msg me on Vday? Really sweet of her ;)
** My dad said my watch was a piece of crap. He wondered what I've been doing with my earnings that I can't even afford a Rolex. Of course la DADDEE, I can buy 2 ROLEX(s) if I don't have to pay for my bro's fees. Grrrr, piss me off sometimes.
Now he wants me to get involved paying up for household utilities bills.

Post Vday
Early in the morning, my darling friend, Orleng, gave me a choc muffin and said "happy Valentine's , babe". The nurse assistant came in and passed me 2 packets of Indian koropok. Isn't it great to feel so loved without having a boyfriend?
Just when I thought I was going home after work, KW smsed me if I'm keen to go on a movie and dinner. Frankly speaking, that is quite unexpected with the reason being he already has a gf. Plus, he explained that they had celebrated Vday at a much earlier date. Okay.....
The most unexpected moment when he gave me a box of Guylian chocs. That's really thoughtful of him.
As I was getting quite tired after movie (yeah it's way too late for Ozzies - i mean semi Ozzie, whatever), I intended to go home till I gave a ring to KH. He 'insisted' that I come over to Bala pub with his friend for a drink. I agreed to drop by provided he gives me a ride home later.
Hehehe, so much for blackmailing. I've had a bottle of beer while 3 of us enjoyed give ratings to the babes around which wade me feel so lesbian for a moment.
I hope most readers did have a wonderful time on V day. Those who got bonked, I'll say good on you, mate.
If you didn't get a chance to do so, don't feel despair. Maybe on the next Vday and you never know. ;)

Getting organised
My bro gave me a lift for work today. Ok, I sorta 'force' him to do that ;p
Went to Human resource collected my staff pass and more papers to be signed. I'm just slowly taking time getting my clinic room to be more organised.Wish I'll have more time putting up the pics but the boxes in the living room must be cleared by the lunar new year.
Both of my parents headed off to JB to collect some fresh seafood from Dad's client early this morning. Since I'm early at the hospital, I get a chance to have a taste of kaya toast for my brekky. Yum yum! Now I'm loving my own little consult room which I 'm able to play my favourite Diana Krall's soundtrack.
****************
I got an email from Mr Irish. I don't know why I've still got a weebit of feelings for him. Maybe it's the respect that I get the most out of him as compared to the guys whom I went out with.
The way he wrote on his email is so plain but simple as usual.
Mr Banker msned me yesterday. Why is it such guys like him must keep talking about the important of (good) sex all the time? I don't get it. Not as if I am keen to fly over and give him a bonk. Feeling abit nauseous as I'm typing this out.
I do detest with certain people who think being a virgin must be superbly holy and traditional. It's a personal perference and one's own belief. People do not have to get so uptight finding girls- who- fastened- their chasity -belts in this era.
****************
I pestered my buddy,KH to come out on Vday to eat cockles with me. hurhur!
*screw v-day...

I got an email from Mr Irish. I don't know why I've still got a weebit of feelings for him. Maybe it's the respect that I get the most out of him as compared to the guys whom I went out with.
The way he wrote on his email is so plain but simple as usual.
Mr Banker msned me yesterday. Why is it such guys like him must keep talking about the important of (good) sex all the time? I don't get it. Not as if I am keen to fly over and give him a bonk. Feeling abit nauseous as I'm typing this out.
I do detest with certain people who think being a virgin must be superbly holy and traditional. It's a personal perference and one's own belief. People do not have to get so uptight finding girls- who- fastened- their chasity -belts in this era.

I pestered my buddy,KH to come out on Vday to eat cockles with me. hurhur!
*screw v-day...

Beat the blues
Oz will always be my second home. I'm beginning to miss it already! So much stuffs and orientation have been going on for today.
From now onwards, I would need to be more cautious in terms of my writings. APP hospital will not like the idea if someone is blogging about something at the somewhere.
I have thought of shutting down this blog.Then again, I'll see how it goes.
Definitely looking forward the end of the month where my pay gets to roll into my bank account. Each time when I've paid up my bro's uni fees, it's like a cycle that I have to start saving up for the next fees due in 6 month's time.=_=
Home was alright. Dad still nagging on the way I drive like a kid playing Daytona. Mom (sigh) spoiled my Ninewest bag as she left the straps caught onto a cupboard's door. Was telling Shan that the straps looked abit wonky ;(
9 boxes arrived from Sydney few days ago which I'll probably spent the next few weekends arranging or unpacking items.
What's worst, I'm so pms+++ now. *ROAR*

Little voice
As much as I would love to help people with my 'ever' graciousness and generosity, I would not tolerate people who would take my advantage of my kindness. Potraying a black face is all I need(can) to do. There are a lot of lessons to be learnt in life, in fact, endless! I suppose all of us has to go through it in terms of whether ups or downs. I should have been more firm in the first place with him. He should have learnt that it is wrong to use someone's property without that person's permisson. He could be desperate to use it at that moment but still, it's about being moral. He may see it no harm but action does speaks for itself.
Eg, If a patient has paid for a Grade A antibiotics, you 've prescribed Grade B medicine and tell him it's Grade A. No doubt both grades work effectively.
**********
I was quite pissed that I had to pay something upfront depsite the fact he could have paid for his own share. Maybe he didn't hear what the waitress was saying if we are going dutch or paying together. He KNOWS he has to pay for his own coz we stated quite clearly before hand. On the other contrary, I could not help to think that if he's trying to rip me off in every possible ways.
It's not an issue to pay for anyone as long as the person appreciates it. I know I'll have the capability to earn the money back anyway.

Fudge!
The office of fair trading still hasn't returned the housing bond (AUD:$700) to me until I gave them a call again. By right the housing bond should have been retured within 48hours after application's being submitted.wtf that I've been waiting for 2 weeks!First, they screwed up my banking details. Next, they promised to send me a cheque which I'll get to receive on the next 3-5 days. Cb, still see no cheque. On the 3rd call, again they reassured that the cheque will be sent off asap.
*ROaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*
For sure I can make use of that money on my trip back to Singapore.
****************
BG, who is new to Perth, is going to start his medical studies in UWA. He agreed to be my designated driver while showing him new places to go at the same time. As for today, we are going to visit the hair salon together.YAY* I've been waiting for this moment to come. My fringe is literally covering my eyes unless I gave it a scrunch ;p
After haircut, hopefully I can chill out at his place and play a few rounds of pool. Cooky ,which (a Maltese) belongs to his landlord, is such a cute doggie! I wanna kidnap that caramelled fur coat doggie back to Sg !
*****************
4 days more to Sg.............so fast!!!!

Angry blog
I can't understand why certain insitutions just make life more difficult for me.
Firstly, it's JJ superannuation fund. I rang them twice and they kept on saying they will send the forms to me which I could roll over my superfunds into another bank.
Cb........still see nowehere of the forms.
Next, I wanted to open a bank account in CC bank. It's a special account that the lady staff explained that she can't give me much info except to read the booklet as provided. Saying what she is not trained to give any info on that particular bank account. Never mind, I brought the booklet back and analyse myself.
Following day, I went back to CC bank again. The dark-looking staff insisted to have my passport as my ID.
Cb lah....I've already produce my driver's licence, medicare card, credit card with photo on it.
Apparently I've still not reach the 100 points id check requirement.
*black face with a pout*
ooooo, gtg to catch a bus to city now...
