Dear Pa,


thanks for giving me a ride to Zouk last Saturday. And also, getting me home safely at 1am without allowing me to spend those bling on cab fares.


Your loving daughter

** my dad thinks I should be lucky if my future husband is as thoughtful as he is

Clueless

3 of us were supposed to have a happy and fun time celebrating V's birthday at a local resturant. Not until S asked JJ if he is interested in coming. Judging from V and my sms replies, S should have felt that his presence wasn't necessary. Afterall, V and myself did express to her that "we always have thought it's just 3 of u on today's dinner" thingy.

Anyway, that wasn't the main issue.
S threw a fit at me just because she felt I wasn't being upfront with him about my feelings.
I was stunned for a moment......

On the contrary, why should I be upfront with someone who hasn't even declared his feelings for me?
He has every right to pursue what he wants but doesn't mean I have to show some 'acti0ns' against it. If he doesn't get the hint, then there's nothing much can be done. Bloody loser!

S was saying how she felt stressful because of JJ who has bugging her for info.
Rather getting the support from a long- time friend like S, I was being thrashed by her sayings over a guy whom I don't even know his surname.

Vn was telling me how such person can be called my 'good friend' just because I'm not doing what she thinks it's right. I should deserve at least some respect from S upon my decision towards such issue. Nope, I'm being condemned.

I really have no idea why S choses to be bothered so much instead of telling that guy to move on and get a life.

Dear VN,

Don't get too upset ok? *hugs*

*********************
Sheesh, my colleague is throwing those Mr Eligible Patients to me. That's so obvious. I think she just couldn't wait I get hooked up or something. She also has arranged her Dr Good Fren's clinic to match with my schedule so he can send patients to me. Also means more communication will take place between me and him lor.
*********************

Sometimes I hate myself for being a softie.

Bravo

My dear friend , N , found this doc appears to be quite geeky plus cute looking. Even though he has a dry sense of humour, N doesn't seems to mind at all. You know, those kind of jokes where you and I don't get it.
Anyhow, I added a few words of encouragement on how N wanted to ask him out for a game of pool on this coming Friday.

Vioooola! This dude replied and agreed to see her this Friday! She must be feeling as though she had just hit a jackpot or something.

(((my personal view)))

It's perfectly fine asking a guy out only if you decide to treat him as a friend from the start. Should you get yourself immerse with feelings or emotions in it, in this case, you may find yourself in a more difficult position scoring a date with your Mr Potential.
Sighs and symptoms of nervousness set in, breaking out in cold sweat, getting cold feet, and unable to think rationally. And that's NO good. The last thing is you don't really wish to make yourself behaving like a fool in front of him.

Go with the flow. Don't set any expectations till you get to know this person on a more personal level. It's always fair to date the person at least for a couple of times before deciding if you would like to go on further with the possibility of getting hook- up- kind of scenerios.
Personally, I don't believe in first sight. A bit of warmth up and time are the essential factors in order for me to open up myself to that person. This is getting such a' cosmo' column......

Love,

Flatfeet

Don't know why

The clerks cannot listen to simple instructions and so does my assistant nurse. When I want the patient to come on Tuesday, they ought to follow the instruction given and no questions as should be asked.
The reason why I want the pt to come in on a Tuesday is because the ortho Dua lokun will be around to review the pt.

Another issue is I'm having a 'new' assistant nurse. Not exactly new but she has helped out on another area for a fair while before coming back to pod. The most frustrating part is she doesn't listen properly which often leads to communication breakdown. It's like what I want versus on what she assumes.She's untidy and not proactive to top up stocks on time.
Really 'gek sim' sometimes to work with such people. I miss my previous assistant nurse.

Dear VN

Don't forget our Jap buffet bet is on.

Patient's love

Says who you need someone special to be thinking of you all the time. For my case, it's totally exceptional. One of my leg amputee patients was really nice to get me 2 pots of plants from home so they can brighten up my clinic. The furthest on the left was bought at my Aunt's florist shop. Of course added with my loving care and attention plus daily watering, I hope the plants wouldn't die on me faster than expected.Hurhur.

Bonous pressie part 2!

One of the lovely med reps gave me a pendant from Taiwan!

******************

And Im down with a throat irriation. Sian!

The moments, my feelings

I've got an elderly client today which almost make my heart broke into pieces. He is down with mutiple medical conditions which( thank goodness!) he's still able to walk himself with an aid of umbrella.
Together with his spouse, he was telling me in Hokkien that how he is worried for his 2 sons on the long run. One day his wife and himself will leave the world. The saddest part is both sons suffered from some form of mental illness. There is no way that they could get proper jobs to feed the family.
The entire whole family just has to rely on the benefits of a charity organisation for living.

Towards the end of the treatment, I was positive about taking charge over his consult fees. This sounds crazy but I didn't get a chance to do it since he's already possessed a medical social benefit card.

My ideal perfect Sunday

Wakie wakie rise and shine early in the morning. Then it's by exercise time at East Coast Park and enjoy a good workout.Followed by home-made breakfast filled with bacons, omelettes, baked beans, snags (sausages) and toasts with strawberry jams. Newspaper readings comes after breakfast with a cuppa of aromatic white latte laid on the side table.
By afternoon, my future hub and myself can go for a nice lil' shopping or sightseeing on places of interest. Or maybe even doing something together which we've never done it before at all.
Around evening time, meet parents or his parents for dinner. Just a couple of hours before we sleep, it would be DVD time! While the yellow dim light sets in the bedroom, we'll be watching the show in a cuddly manner and sipping onto a few glasses of orange martinis.

The end ;)

Allergy to write.....

My cough's back! Think I must have exposed to certain allergens today. Sigh* Allergens can be anything under the sun lor. I'll not be surprised one day if I die from an allergy reaction. When I was in Sydney, I remembered once I was frigging sick and coughing my lungs out. Seen at least 2 GPs and 1 TCM doc before I got better. At the last consult, the med doc gave me Nasonex and that solved the problem totally.

*****************************

I got thrashed

Sob! Those ortho docs are so smart. Discharged the patients from their side and referred it back to me for fug*
Eg. Miss Psy wanted to have her bunions (the big lumpy thing on 1st big toe) removed. She felt the Doc hasn't given her enough reassurances on the surgical option. She came back to me asking for surgical advice, pros n cons, costs, surgical issues....etc...
The bottomline is "i is not a surgeon ok!?"
She yakked so much that I wanted to charge her as a long consultation time.

Why Singaporeans hasn't got any sense of timing one?

Very often, I get 'excuses' for being late on their appointments like :

" I see the time wrongly";
" I see the date wrongly";
"The PIE/CTE/TPE jammed very badly";
" I worked night shift/morning shift /afternoon shift"
"I got other appointment today and I want to see if can see you today as well or not"
" My appointment is in 2 weeks time. Can I see you now instead?"
"Army lor, can only book out at certain time"
" I went travelling lor. Missed my appointment. I want to walk in and see u can or not"

.......the list goes on....
*************************************

Benjamin, thanks for coming down to have lunch with me at the hospital. Yes, U frigging owe me far too many meal treats.
h o h o h o

I'm cured!

Heh heh, now I can breathe better. Look more alive after using Nasonex kindly given by the 'rhino' Doc.

**********************

Today I got a psychoAbnncheekorpek uncle said:" you're beri prettiiiii".
A moment ago, he was actually complaining to the clerk that this is the worst hospital that he ever come with the longest waiting time. It got really bad that the clerk had to ring me and let me know about the waiting time issue.
Even my assistant nurse got a shock to see how he mellowed himself down so much in front of me.

Seasonal rhinitis

I hate see a Dr for such condition. 99% of the time they always treat it as a viral infection or simple cold or flu.

I know I'm having a allergic rhinitis because:

- I've been having the symptoms (itchy palate, cough, throat irritation ...etc) for the past 7 days


- I don't have any fever or sore throat

- My symptoms worsens with cold enviroments

-I feel slightly better using my expired Nasonex

Now I'm deciding whether to see a ENT Dr or GP tomorrow...

**********************

Friday: Went to watch Dim Sum Dolly with KW. I probably have scared him off coz I ate so much in front of him.

Well, I was really hungry after the show.Hurhur.

Saturday: Went to Zouk with SM and LL. It feels great having to drink in a smoke-free zone. At least I don't get the stink on my hair and body afterwards. I was *again* coughing really badly as the air-con was in a full-blast mode at Winebar. After a few rounds of Martinis, the cough got better though. Guess 3 of us have set a record of having 11th round of Martinis from 9-1am.

Poor SM didn't handle her drinks quite well that she had to run to the toilet a few times performing "merlion" act. Afterwards, we walked over to Hongkong Cafe for some hot drinks plus supper. Gosh, the moment we mentioned the word 'food', SM felt nauseated and wanted to throw up again. Tsk*. I must say that she has improved so much of her drinking business. Usually one bottle of beer is good enough to make her sick.

And me, I think I've still got a bit of Australian- drinking blood in me ;)

drinks and more drinks

When you start feeling 'high', you start to wonder how high you really wanna get

SM can't help but to take pic of this sexy babe with perfect calves and muscle tone.

Crap!

A pt ,who was assisted by med social service , managed to gain finance approval in order to pay for her insoles fees. I got the cheque and the clerk was not able to process it. Since the pt was previously charged as an in-patient, no one seems to be able to help me to get the cheque processed. The assistant of med social service can only repeat "i don't know" as the answer despite the fact I've asked her who I can speak to for further. What the frigging hell. The 'head' of med social service rang up the nurse manager of my clinic and spoke to her about the problem. The fact is that I was really mad as the reason being we worked together under one roof but we are 2 different departments!
What has my patient's account got to do with anyone on the nursing side?
cb...


My phone kept on ringing consistently. Major disturbances between me and my patient's consultation. Wish my assistant can be more firm when answering phone call. Each time if it's a Dr who called up, she doesn't hesistate to pass the phone to me at once. Grrrrrrrrrr.......
It got so bad that I felt just annoyed. Again, the phone rang and I can't help but frowned my head and asked :"what is it this time?"
The assistant defended herself instantly and replied:" not me uh not me."
She thought I was pissed with her - I mean for fug sake. Don't you get frustrated when you are explaining something to the patient and has to side track in the middle of it to answer a call (unimportant). After the pt has left, I've tried to rationalise my so-called 'angry' behaviour to her and yet she insisted that I 'looked' angry and that's why she responded in such a uptight manner. Very knn......
What's worst, she even asked me to answer a phonecall from a Dr when I was treating an important client.

Whatever it is, i'm taking it easy. Rather than not having an assistant around.

Dr Dualokun sent a patient : On the referral form indicate X and his clinical notes indicate Y. Patient insisted want X treatment. No choice lor, give in to patient's request.
He was saying I looked like that Indian Idol's judge called Alisha Chinai.
I don't wanna be a ABNN lor!

Angry blog

I can't exactly remember when was the last time I threw into a fit of anger. I would have feel pissed or annoyed about certain things but not to the stage of blowing my top off .

However, when my stuffs get missing (for unknown reasons) or destroyed, I'm definitely pissed on fire.
Since my mom was away for a trip, my bro volunteered to do the laundry. It is only fair that he gets to do it since the rest of us were at work. I would expect he has basic knowledge in washing. Nope, the exact opposite happened. He dumped all the coloured clothes together with the whites.
Now I have to say thanks to him for destroying my expensive white vest plus a couple of other stained white tops. There are already 2 buckets in the laundry room. Quite obvious the white and coloured are seperated before hand.
I don't know if should continue to sponor his uni fees or not. The more he studies, the less common sense he has. Probably he just being ignorant.
I don't know what he is really good at. Besides going chalet,attending parties and drinking, he sounded more like a pest at home. He wakes up like frigging middle of the day and surfs online till the time he is going out to meet friends again.

Anyhow, I need to check on my white vest which I've been bleaching it since last night.

Run babey

I ran 5km with a bunch of disabled people who will be taking part in competitive marathons events coming up soon.They can run amazingly fast okay?!

Again before the run, I did quick check on their feet and footwear assessment as well.

It was all good.

***************

My mom misplaced my one and only running shorts in my brother's cupboard.
Pissed me off. My bro has got a small butt and how can she expect my bro to fit well into my shorts.

Next shopping list:
1) new glasses
2) new running shorts x 1 pair
3) running singlets
4) pumps - I don't know why but I can never find shoes that fits my feet in Singapore. ; (
Bata and other girlie shops are out of questions.

Motive or not

I've got a doc who recently caught up with me in regards about our patient's current treatment plan. So, it all began with a phonecall, followed by emails, smsing (mainly work related stuffs)
And today,we went for lunch for the 2nd time.


I was wondering.......

Is he trying to get me to see more of his patients and that's why he's been treating me so nicely.

*puzzled*

Out of town

Went for a gateway to KL over the weekend. Got home about 6pm. Caught the bus at Golden Mile (it's like a mini thailand in Singa) at 9pm to KL. Tour agency screwed up my hotel booking. I almost went beserk when they didn't even prepare my tour voucher before hand. At that moment, I wish I have the strength to overturn their furnitures (think about having Xmen's power) and break it into pieces.

M was a great companion for the trip. Bet those muscular arms of his must have caught the attention of some ladies and most men in Malaysia. Walking through the Petaling St markets was probably the worst experience for him. There's this Malay pacik went like :" Strong man, Singlet for you Sir. Come come, strong singlet." There is another pacik said like this: " Hye, mate, come on mate, Handbag for your wife/gf sir."
Gosh, those paciks just can't resist squeesing his arms. LOL
M felt he has been partially 'molested' then.

Met JC for lunch. Finally after all these years of keeping in touch, we met and chatted. And met again the following morning for breaky with 2 more new friends.

M and myself headed down to Aloha club on the Saturday night. M was thinking that since we were dressed up like a beach bum, there is no way the club can reject us. I looked so sloppy in my red Havanias, white skirt and a Zara dark pink shirt. Well, I suppose M being the ang moh, the club doesn't mind if he dressed down to the nines.
We ended up meeting a bunch of KL girls and boys and partied till 3am or 2am?

so tired la!

My beloved patient said .....



"I think this job not suitable for you lah. You should become a flight stewardess. Suits u more"

- Wow, this auntie enjoyed giving good career advice.


*****************

A senior Dr started dishing out sharp blades to patients so they can help themselves to remove the hard skin on their feet. I'm so frigging pisssed. So what the fug the Dr still refer the pts to me for what?
Contraindicated my job scope. Knncb.

No exercise

Of all the days in the week, why must it rain on weekends!? Means no rollerbalding or swimming or running.
Neber mind.
Saturday was rather busy for me.
Got paid to surf net the whole morning, sent my Aussie friend to the airport, followed by (window) shopping in Orchard with urchinstabber.
I've just subsidised 100% on my bro's fees. My friend commented that I could have get a number of Gucci bags lar for myself.
When the GST is increasing to 7% in July, I'll be paying more extra blings *sob*.
Not as if my pay is going to take a hike anyway.
A long-time friend from whom I've known in Perth text me if I wanna head down to Cannery. I thought I would have to give it a miss as I'm not keen paying cover charge to get into a club and drink.

Few hours later, my high school mates asked if I wanna head down to winebar. The best part of of the night was for every citibank cardholder, you pay 1 for 1 on the drinks whole night long. Woohoo!!
Left the club at 2am and saw a few Xiao didis (young boys) and Xiao mei meis (young ladies) puking along the road, Tsk tsk. How can they get piss until such state?? So xia suay man!( ultimately embrassing).

Toilet story

There was this ABNN lady ,who works at the clinic oppsite where I'm at, kaopeh at me. Wtf! She kaopeh-ed at me when I was in the middle of doing no.2.
KNNCCB!
She even questioned me that if I'm someone from record office. So what if I'm from record office which means I can't use the public toilet opposite my clinic is it??!!!?

How bizzare!!!!

If she disturbs me at again tomorrow when I'm using the toilet, I'll definitely ask how much she has paid for the toilet cubicle. Or should I throw a 20cent coin at her for using this toilet.

hmmm.........


********************
Frigging Dr Dua Lokun wants me to see his patient in again tomorrow just because he couldn't handle his 'princess' 's rubbish requests anymore.
