Beautiful weekend !

To my love: BoWei

It started off with friday, after my AM shift, went out with my love to essential brew. I love the settings, sitting on the floor with cushion, lights were pretty dim and enjoying the meals.

We went into Sentosa and i bought mylove to Palawan Beach, the 2 towers!! He was blindfolded for the whole journey there. It was so careless of me not to give him proper instrustions and he ended up walking so silly along the bridge and up the stairs.. We went to the very top of the tower, i took out the lovely cake, light up the candles and i sang him a birthday song discreetly as he removed the blindfold. Everything went off so perfect..

He's so happy to see what i've got for him.. he LOVES pony !! =)

We spent some time up the tower, enjoying the seabreeze and the ripples of the sea.. it was beautiful..

We left the place happily..

Next, to Cafe Del Mar.. i love the beach bed settings... =)

We had some drinks and chips there, my all time favourite snapple - kiwi&strawberry!

...under the air-contitioned indoor seats and table... hahahahah

We didn't spend much time over there and off we left the place..

I had to work the next morning.. speaking of that, it really makes me dread to go to work.. I woke up reluctantly..

I still pulled myself up from the bed...

After work, i headed home to sleep.. for an hour..

Afterwhich off i went to darl's place, his birthday celebration..

It was quite a nice gathering for him.. his friends and family were all there..

Somehow, its not that i cant mix and mingle but somehow.. other than his regular frens that i often see... the rest... i seriously dont know what to say to them..

darling my apologies for being so quiet for the evening... and u had to constantly see how i am doing...

Everything went off nicely and you were so so tired at the end of the day.

...I know u enjoyed this beautiful weekend.... =)









I had 2 days MC, due to gastritis.. Yesterday and today..
Dr. prescribed some MMT/Omeprazole...
More than happy to be able to get some rest and FREE from the WARD !

Called up the ward, it was *ML who answered the phone..
ME: Janice here, i got 2 days MC could u please help me to tell the senior?
ML: Huh what happened? Why 2 days !
ME: -.- !! Gastritis!
ME: You help me to inform the senior of the day. Thank you ah
ML: Okay ! Slammed the phone!


Sucks!! Is it wrong for me to get MC?? I've been enduring for the past weeks..

Everyday before i take MC, i looked at the staffing for that shift.. its pathetic can!! I know i have to go to work.. if not how can the ward function with only 5 staffs per shift when there's now added oncology patients.. the workload is really hectic..

Anyway i should happily enjoy my 2 days MC.. for me to rest and reflect abt many things for the past months.. What do i want in my life..

Job satisfaction? Working day in and out, giving so much and having little in return.. ?

What's my point of view when i am a student back then and now, being a Staff nurse!!

It changed so drastically...

Somehow i wished i 've got the strength to continue to do what i love doing...

Continuous Management of patient care or Acute phase of Emergency care?

Weighing the pros and cons..

Last night chatting on the phone with my baobei kaili.. she asked me to replace her in a joking manner, i was in a daze.. Her transfer can be done.. her sister did not decline her transfer and asked her to think over it again before she made the necessary change..

Now, i feel like transfering down to CE!!

But can i take the stress?

Ward management and delivery of care isn't stress, its the hectic workload, the same old routine that i find it rather meaningless..

Diagnosis of all medical problem in children, starting from the respiratory airway there are Asthma, First; Second; third Wheeze bronchiolitis, Pneumonia, URTI

To Gastrointestinal, there are Gastro-entero virus, bloody GE,

To febrile fits patient present with unknown cause of high fever usually more than 40 degree, throwing fits.. jerking of the whole body, uprolling of eyes!! Due to neurons activity..

more and more.....


there are all the commonest diagnosis presenting in the ward.. the management of them is rather symptomatic.. however.. its the patient and the care giver itself that makes it so challenging!

The challenge of taking vital signs for fretful child, feeding them medicince, doing procedures to rule out certain possibilities...

The demanding parents... all and all.... that makes me hate ward routine!

I know i am new to the ward and i have many things that i yet to learn.. its too early to say it now..

but... how can i love my job when i dread to work EACH and EVERY SINGLE DAY?

I find no meaning....

Still considering..


Anyway time to pen off, got to do some of my house work and spending some time with my sis which i've not been doing for a very long time..

I ordered Pizza... for the 2 of us!!


=)
