:: things are malfunctioning around me ::first, i've got no tpt (car) in the morning to CGH, and i ended up waking up at 5.45am today. anyway the stoopid briefing only started at like 8.30?!?! then we had to wait around till 9.30am for a very dua pai (haha) nurse educator to come talk to us about INFECTION CONTROL! out of respect for her extreme cheerfulness and the visible effort she took to make the extremely boring content of lecture interesting, i managed to keep awake, it felt like i was trying to inject botox into my own eyelids... :S in the end, my eyes were soo dry, cuz i kept them open for too long. sadly, it probably looked like i was looking at her with glazed eyes, probably one of the reasons why she didn't ask me any questions... on the other hand, maybe i had 'ignored' her questioning eyes... i think my optic nerves were functioning independently of my brain today! acks, can receive, cannot interpret!
second, cuz of the lack of tpt, i probably have to lug papa apley, take a bus and sit thru the stomach-churning, guts-lurching bus ride to bukit timah shopping centre which is the only place ard here that i know of, that can book bind my three parts of apley. (yes, i've committed the ultimate sin of chopping my books up, and in the process, also shattered HS's heart)
third, my notebk went poof and then blank on thursday night! the provisional diagnosis was short circuit. anyway i had to go read up first... the differential diagnosis was battery malfunction, socket malfunction and wires malfunction. after running some simple investigations, i conclude that the most likely diagnosis is malfunctioning of the battery. :( i'm now using either my dad's notebk or my bro's desktop. :( it feels bad when you have to use other people's things... somehow, the atomsphere is different, and the feel is of something unfamiliar :(
fourth, i managed to contact both my personal tutors today. in fact, i'm very impressed by the effort that CGH put in to organise such a comprehensive and let's not forget, chock-full of activities schedule for our (or more like my, thankfully) short soujourn there. guess what the senior consultant said today: hi my dear girls, how can i help you? ..... oh, you've really come at the right time, i tell u... right for me... but wrong for you! (cackling maddish laughter) cuz, i'm going for a two weeks break... gimme a break manz, i've had only two days' break for? (a year?)... anyway, EW and EO were sorely disappointed cuz WE REALLY LIKE HIM! and he was REALLY GOOD! and the KEENESS TO TEACH US was simply radiating off his face.... yet, by the time he's finally back, it'll be time for our end of posting test! boohooo.... to make matters worse, the other tutor, an associate consultant didn't sound too keen on giving us more than one tutorial a week.
me: [introduction] we were wondering whether you could give us two tutorials a week if possible?
him: well, we'll see, we'll see...
me: ok so, what do you normally prefer your students to do for tutorials? clerk cases? or short cases?
him: you are only year 3 right? first ortho posting? ok... you two just go find your own cases then we'll discuss them.
me: where and what time do we meet you?
him: erm, after the ward round? say about 8.30am, you all tell me where to meet you.
me: ok... [sigh... gone liao la.... ortho wan le...]
i hope he's just tired out by the operation. maybe tutorial will be better! kowtow to the spirit of apley...
the best thing that happened today was a ride fr wenky halfway back home... thanks pal! i really appreciated that! lol... btw, did u notice i got a bit dopey towards the last 10min of the ride?
