Week 2 (13/5/06 – 19/5/06)
Wohooo! All d lovely nurses, prepare urself cause D last ‘JANTAN TERMACHO DI SKUDAI’ have finally landed…..all by himself. Muahaha, yeah finally my dad hv give me d green light 2 drive all by myself 2 work. My first drive there was quite smoth…. But actually not 1st cause I hv drive there b4 about a week earlier with my mom 2 prove 2 her that it can be done even though I can only drive with my left hand. So now I finally got d chance how do I feel? A bit frustrating cause d road was pack with cars on d morning rush hour (can u believe it 2 cover d distances of a few kilometers it takes more then 15 minutes……ARGHH n some stupid road users don’t even know how 2 give signals when changing lanes)…..sometimes its really gets on my nerve when suddenly someone cut in front of me (aku cucukz karang br ko tau betapa hebatnya skill aku….xpo sabor dorang x penah rase koma 3 hari sbb eksiden kot I always remind myself) Usually I arrive at my work place just b4 8 am, hv breakfast 1st n after that report 4 work b4 830 am.
This week kak wai let we do all d lab work by our self….maybe after observing us for 1 week, she felt quite confident n let us be independent. So I n Syu take turns: on d 1st day this week I do all d culturing n she do all d lab test. D next day we trade places…..so its been like that 4 d whole week. But on Wednesday something bad happened….. I was struck down with diarrhea, adeiii my stomach is killing me. I started 2 feel d pain when I woke up that morning but I insisted 2 go 2 work thinking rubbing minyak panas will help 2 ease d pain. N driving under that condition was a HELL kind of an experience. By noon my body start heating up so I just ate bread n hot milo during my break n take a quick nap after zohor…..that helps a little. When I arrive home my body temperature was quite high, so i take a fever pill n went 2 sleep. When I woke up 4 solat magrib my body temperature came down a liitle n after I ate my dinner (suapan nasi pertama 4 that day) I went back 2 sleep cause I hv 2 woke up REALLY early…..no not 2 go 2 work or 2 finish my homework but 2 watch d big EUROPEAN CHAMPION LEAGUE match between 2 of my favourite football teams : ARSENAL VS BARCELONA……n d match ended with Barcelona beating arsenal 2-1 (I was hopping 4 d gunners 2 win but I guess there also no miracle in football)
By d time 2 go 2 work my body temp was back 2 normal but my stomach still hurts a little….there’s only 2 possibilities where I cant get infected, 1st from d food I ate on Tuesday(now I regally eat outside so d food is not as hygiene as my moms cooking) or from my work place(my work involve nasty bacteria such as E.coli n Shigella which can cause diarrhea) On this day also we d trainees was given d opportunity 2 watch a live demonstration on how 2 take bone marrow sample from a leuchimia patient…..it was kind of interesting cause I always wondered how d doctors put in d metal rods onto my injured hand b4. But it was not d same with 2 colleuge they look kind of shock maybe cause its they 1st experience. On Friday there is nothing special, work faster cause we have 2 finish all our work by 1230. Oh yeah cause I hv been driving 2 work all by myself, now every 2 days I will go 4 a jog at a lake garden near d hospital b4 I went home.
So theres my report 4 d 2nd week since I started my practical. Only now I started 2 feel glad my dad gave me an automatic transmission car…..b4 I insisted he bought 4 me a manual car cause its cheaper n I feel quite lame driving an auto (b4 I though auto were only made 4 girls n d sissy boys) but after experience d frustration of driving in a traffic jam day in n day out only then I really glad I don’t hv 2 change gears 4 every 10 seconds. Also I started 2 get along with d other staff n hoping they will treat me as one of d staff there n not just some outsider who just passing by. K 6 weeks left of learning, relearning n making mistakes (but make sure u learn from ur mistakes)
