in all my randomness

me trying to blog down all my worries and frustrations..haha..sitting here with an itchy nose, sore throat and contemplating abt getting an mc frm work tml.. feel tt my nose is gonna drop off or sth..the way it itches..roars..

anyway as the prospect of flyng off to the land of Oz draws near, i'm soo getting cold feet. like..what will i eat? what will i wear? (for awhile it reminds me of..if He clothed the lilies of the valley, if He fed the birds up in the sky..how much more He'd give to me..how much more His love for me..Love my dear Jesus so much..) me...someone who cant cook anything tt requires oil..ha! someone who can't differentiate cotton and rayon and what shrinks and what not..eeeeeeeeekz! freaking out...

really wondering what will happen when i leave..i betcha i'll be bawling my eyes out at the airport..and den again on the plane..and den again in Australia..SIGH..shall not think so much..

well, as for work wise..2months down..5more to go! whoopee! it's really huh for me to be thinking tt way..cos..i'm gg to study to add value to my work and i cant wait till i finish my contract? haha..weird man..i gotta endure bit more! once i gain sufficient exp and sufficient moolah.i'm so gg to open my own place..really wanna work with kids..want it to be a happy place! hope tt i won't forget why i wanna set it up in the first place and tumble down the path of greediness and money making schemes..haha...dunno la..prolly spouting rubbish..maybe i shld do part time at gymboree or tumble tots first..den can see if i like working with kids..or if my idea to fuse both needy kids and so called normal kids together in the same environment is feasible not..much as kids are innocent and cutesy and all, they're still not tt immune to prejudices and kids can be so honestly mean..plus there's their parents to contend with..bahh..

i aint feeling so good as to head to work..itchy nose itchy throat itchy ears.. nv noe when u're gg to sneeze and cough..i think sometimes when working..it's not abt how well u can tahan it..sometimes it's abt image too..as a healthcare provider..i wouldnt trust u if u came in sneezing and looking worse off than me..for ex, if u're gp having flu..will u there to see him?haha..i'd be quite turn off even tho i noe tt gps are also human and they do fall ill..second thing is tt..with low immunity, working in a hospital is risky..u'll nv noe what germs may be lurking..hee..maybe those are just excuses..maybe i'm actually fit for duty..pout..dunch like ma..

got it got it got it

ring ring ring....hey grace, good news for u...u got the offer from Curtin...

whoohooo....best news tt my agent got for me..heh..anyway so it means i'll be off to perth this coming feb... school supposedly starts on feb 18...i'm supposed to be there 1wk earlier for orientation..the more i think abt the moolah and the accomodation and the arrangements, the more i feel like gg into stoning mode..

anyway it's hectic hectic hectic stuff here in singapore.. mad rush for places in aus schools..crazy rush again to get all the things ready for school...for curtin i need a life savers bronze medal at least, plus a seniors first aid course with CPR..sigh...

but i'm excited..to be staying in either apartments or hostels..to be studying in super different environments... all the seniors at work are like..go n don't come back! stay there n work! hahah...and then they're all green with envy...haha..quite funny..

oh wells..i'm wishing everyone all the best in their mad rush to secure their future..jia u everyone..let's hop into the adult world with hopes high and optimism overflowing! haha..we're after all young enough to make mistakes and get away with it..haha

Pictures from the past...not so past though..

Really gross looking yet really nice sotong sausage! the normal sausage sausage was even better... it's still attached to a rib..roasted to perfection..juicy..succulent..sweet...MEAT!

updates on life

haha...has been super busy plus lazy these days.. super tired after work.. me working in the out-pt gym actually so not so energy draining like my friends who have to carry old ah mas and ah peks...so work is like mon-fri..830 to 530..outpt doesnt drag so much unlike inpt but still v tiring to see pts non-stop..haha..we're all living for the wkends..

anyway, cgh's been pretty fun..the ppl are really quite nice and friendly..but den they try to make us bond by throwing us to play games like floorball and captain's ball..hahah.. so my team actually did win the floorball game...don't ever look down on the customer service staff...they're really aggressive and wad not..kinda scary..haha..cannot imagine how will our captain's ball match against them be..yikes..

omg..jia u jin shun is making me cry..so sad..hahah...

anyway in all the randomness, i feel so relieved to have gotten my first pay! hahah..but i'm slightly puzzled as to like how do i return money to my papa's cpf..do i have to externally write a cheque or sth or is it auto deducting frm my pay? oh wellz..

i'm so counting down till the days i end my contract..and then i'm wondering wad next..hopefully i'll be gg off to curtin.. once u start work u can really understd why some ppl don't mind staying home...hahha..me really wanna be a chao bimbo suddenly..no responsibilities...no protocols!! hahaha...work was really ugh in the 1st wk especially..like the first few pts..u feel so off seeing them...den so slow..cannot reach quota..cannot get right diagnosis..i'm still in the student mindset..wanna ask my seniors like how and wad to do for this n that.. slowly weaning off it..den u feel v shiok to have the "power" to decide..but WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY! sigh..mz make sure u're safe n treat pts well.. sigh..
