** missy ng **
ha. ha. ha.
i should be rushing my CVS tut now. but who cares? let me blog a bit. i need a break. lolx.
chiling, liling, weiling, weiqin, jasmine and i went for NSL extra practice today. we helped each other take the vital signs. am i abnormal or what? my blood pressure is low. 100/60. 90/60. 110/70. 100/55. low low low low low... don't start singing that irritating song, please.
after posting the picture of me with the stethoscope, my other nursing friends heart itchy (please translate to Mandarin), and decided to take photos of themselves acting
seh with the stethoscope! being a camera-loving girl, i decided to take
MORE photos of myself looking so
seh.... =P
i think i look like an ER nurse taking the vital signs of a patient!
especially when i am in that shade of blue...
did you watch Healing Hands?
the ER shade of blue =)
and of cos, hearing my own heartbeat.
mind you, don't hit hard on the listening piece. your ear drums will burst!!!
i woke up today, and in my blur state, told my dad i need not study today. i thought it was still recess week -_-"
CA in three days. bleah.
i survived monday.

** CHIONG ARH~!!!! **
oh my!
recess week came... and left.
what's with my clock?
does it only have 12 hours?
why does time pass so fast?
i'm so upset.
recess is no longer the recess i thought it to be. having a break, no longer. mugging, more likely.
thank goodness i managed to squeeze out some time to spend with certain people. and i really mean, SQUEEZE. like a time table for friend-meetings and mugging sessions. ha. ha. ha.
i'm so loving my recess week.
anyway, after interviewing a nurse at Metta Home in Simei, weiling and i went to meet up with some Sponges for some slack time =) fyi, i don't think i can be a geriatric nurse (taking care of the elderly). it's really... very... sad. or a palliative care nurse. or something of that sort. i will get emotionally attached. and it would be very hard for me to say bye.... and as you know, i cry super easily... so... ya. i think i will be dehydrated very often if i were to be a nurse of that speciality.
clara, shihui and i.
btw, clara's my junior from AJ! 1606. haha!!! fungi, your direct junior.
weiling, chiling, weiqin.
i'm with weiling for all my nursing tutorials.
chiling's lame lame society's president
weiqin's the VP.
and i'm the treasurer.
oh! weiling's the secretary.
all of us!
melissa came late. and liling came, and left, and cabbed back again.
girls (and boys), please make yourself contactable to your parents. liling's mum received a phone call from a PRC male who claimed he kidnapped her daughter and demanded a ransom. there was a female screaming in the background. liling rushed back to be with her mum and made a police report. so ya people, spread the word. be careful!
PRC. thanks man. as if the melamine and yishun triple murder cases are not enough. i'm trying VERY hard not to generalise here. but i cannot help it. i'm so sorry.
on a ligher note, zhiwei, serkun and i met for dinner at BPP on Saturday. the funny thing was, all three of us had dinner before meeting up. wahaha! lame. what to do? we're Lamerz. we sat at streets and talked much nonsense. then we migrated to Kopitiam to have dessert and continued the nonsense. later, we went to Mac's and nonsensed more. oh btw, i did not purchase anything from them! WAHAHA!!!
topics we talked about:
- burning vs lighted splint
- logigates (is that how you spell it?)
- BOP, BTE (that's barriers to entry, btw), DAS (demand and supply -_-")
and the funniest....
- Serious Quak. because seriously = Serious Lee. (it's ok if you don't get it. when we laugh, no one does)
and oh! F1's quite interesting. still need people to guide me along. i think it's quite dumb to sit there and spend like... 2h 30min on cars going round and round. but yet again, it's it equally dumb to see 22 men chasing after a ball on the pitch? ha!
I DON'T WANT TO GO BACK TO SCHOOOOL~!!!!! ='(

** happy birthday huiyi, daryl, shuen!!! **
oh yes! the recess week is here! i am so glad.
recess week aint really recess week if you get what i mean. it's meant to let us STUDY! this is nonsense. how could they do this to us?
bleah. just to upload some random photos...
the day after
zhong qiu.
i like the rainbow around the moon. i don't know if that is still considered a rainbow though...
Dr Sze.
WAHAHAHAHA~!!!!
i look so seh man...
no wonder the doctors over at NUH LOoOoOVE to hang their stethoscopes around their necks like this when they come over to our canteen for lunch. thanks man.
#1: it's OUR canteen. stop snatching seats and lengthening the Q during our pathetic 1 hour breaks.
#2: i wonder if they disinfect the stethoscopes before coming out for lunch... imagine consuming their patients' cough droplets... gross.
YES~!!! liling, weiling and i were sooo early for the last lecture before our recess week. we are good girls... =P
cell went for dim sum buffet just now to celebrate huiyi, daryl and shuen's birthdays!!! 20, 19, 18 respectively. september babies =)
the people present were:
luwei, henson, timo, huiyi, shuen, joshua, daryl, bel, peijun and i.
the food we ordered:
it was a LOT of food i tell you.
the Law of Dimishing Marginal Returns started to set in, and not long after, we were all FULL~!!!!
so, we decided to play open numbers and zhong ji mi ma to finish the food. isn't this ALWAYS the case at all buffets?!
look at timo's face as he zhong-ed MORE food =P
after a while, things got boring. so dear peijun decided to up the stakes. the people on the left and right of the person who zhong-ed the number had to eat the food. thanks man.. how ingenious.
daryl and shuen had to eat cos joshua (middle) zhong-ed.
somehow, the two of them seemed happy!!!
all good things must come to an end. as cliche as it sounds, it is true!!! peijun and i had to leave for school. we missed the desserts. ARGH~!!! sianx man...
english zoomed past and before i knew it, it was time to go home =D
and we saw this...
outside Science, LT 27, Co-op. thanks man. HA. HA. HA.
dear jaslyn!!! jaiyoule~!!! take care~!!! get well soon. boycott chickens for now ba..

** mid-autumn festival kuai le **
HAPPY MID-AUTUMN FESTIVAL~!!!!
cell group celebrated the festival yesterday.... and shuen's birthday of cos! so now, shuen is 18. oh my~! i still remember celebrating her 16th birthday -_-" at the church's playground together with daryl's... how time flies...
cell group just chilling out, doing nothing...
look at the cuteeee chicken little =)
cell group did a little something for shuen....
it was truly a GROUP effort.
shu, better be touched arh...
look at that luwei zi-lian-ing...
i decided to zi lian as well...
TADAH~!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHUEN~!!!! =D
us.
why is kong ann staring at the mooncakes? =P
dear shuen =)
i love her!
cell trying to act cute.... on shuen's request. heh.
cam whoring...
and look at the rubbish generated...
and the birthday girl clearing up...
WAHAHAHAHA~!!!! o0ps....
nissi-peijun-ers, if you guys want the original pictures, please tell me. i will find a way to send you guys. haha.
and to shu, kongann loves you a LOT la. maybe he doesn't say it. but his actions show it all. he was the first to write your "card". and when peijun told him of the plan, he went ahead with the "project" straight away. oh my.... i'm envious. i'm jealous... oh no... i'm developing low self-esteem. haha. treasure him ok? i cannot stand it. i witnessed two acts of brothers loving their sisters within a day. sianx man. i also want!!!! keke. die. don't let zhonghua see this. keke.
anyway, i think sermon was very true. i think low self-esteem is something that is plaguing many of us from fully developing our potentials. hMm... i admit i'm one of them. Ps Benjamin said something about single eye lids, right?! REFER TO MY PREVIOUS POST~!!! the lines after the purple bandage photo. wahaha... yup yup.
as henson and i arrived late for the celebration (cos we were on library duty.. WITHOUT zhonghua. oh my! stressed!), we were still eating while the rest of them were playing. luwei (i think) commented that we were like the papa and mama watching our kids play with the lanterns, firecrackers and candles.
then, henson went, "don't run too far out!!!"
immediately, i shouted, "come, let me wipe your sweat. want to eat anything? want to drink anything?"
wahaha~!!!! it was quite hilarious.
shuen really came over to drink water and marco came over for fries. wahaha.. my children... all younger than me... ARGH~!!!! so sad. low self-esteem =S
btw, Mac's student meal is NO LONGER ON DURING THE WEEKENDS~!!!! nonsense~!!! i limit myself to have Mac only twice every month. now, i shall limit myself to purchase a meal from them once every two months. lousy Mac. as if we have more allowance during the weekends. as if we are no longer students on weekends. as if they are very hygienic. their curry sauce has MAGGOTS in them (3 Sept 2008). want evidence? leave your email on my tag board.
on a lighter note, clara and i went to support liling in the Inter-Fac Games.
liling in action!
so seh, right? i think school players have this seh-ness about them. as i watched liling, i was reminded of fungi. just that liling is tall and fungi is taller. haha. coincidentally, liling, clara and i belong to the upper 150cm gang. wahaha... so ya, we feel comforted to have each other =)
lamerz, miss celebrating zhong qiu with you guys. so sad. sigh...
one more week to recess week~!!!! =D jiayoule.

** blood donation no.3 **
your dear szern went for blood donation together with liling and clara on thursday (September 11. how meaningful). all three of them wanted to donate blood during their 1 hour break. however, things took longer than expected and they had no choice but to skip lecture. o0ps... shh.... it's their first time ponning a lecture in uni! YES!
i SMS-ed weiling to inform her that we would be ponning lecture. weiling called me back and said that chiling and herself would be ponning lecture as well!!! WAHAHA~!!! so on man~!!! so the five of us ponned the (b-o-r-i-n-g) contemp lecture. i'm so hoping jillian's not reading this.
but anyway, i think i'm super lucky to be able to donate. well, my bp was a bit on the low side (100/60) that day. the normal blood pressure should be 120/80. and i was very sure i was underweight (i.e. under the 45kg requirement to donate blood!!!). so i stuffed my keys and handphone into my pockets before going for the examination. and i didn't take off my shoes as well!!! haha. o0px...
my iron count was 12.8. the minimum level required for blood donation is 12.5. clara's was 12.1 while liling's was 12.3. so means, they couldn't donate~!!! so sad. so, they became my supporters instead!!! keke.
here they are!!!
so sweet of them to still accompany me although they were unable to donate!
anyway, please don't get mad at us for skipping lecture. we were just subscribing to the Utilitarian theory. the theory places the locus of right and wrong solely on the OUTCOME of the actions, not the person performing the action. in this case, being nurses, we value the sanctity of life. blood donation might save a life. this to us, is more important than attending a lecture.
yea~!!! purple bandage for the second time in a row!!! my first was a pink. second was a purple. third was a purple as well =) it's nice can? lavender.... hee =D and yes, that's my blood! i have really small eyes. argh~!!! sianx. randoms.
oh ya! i'm extremely touched cos i donated one FULL packet of blood!!!! the previous 2 times were only half full for me! i'm so happy! means, my blood flow should be ok le =) haha. the nurses had to RUSH over to pull the needle out cos the bag was full of blood. a little too full in fact! haha.
blood donation + menses + slept at 3am the day before = an EXTREMLY chui szern.
now szern has low Hb count. means less blood and oxygen to her brain cos 1 Hb molecule has 2 alpha and 2 beta chains. each chain binds to 1 heme group. means there are a total of 4 Heme groups which binds to 1 02 molecule each. this means there's a total of 4 02 molecules. 1 Hb less = 4 less 02 molecules to the brain. therefore, you cannot blame szern for being a little to slow this period of time... around... 7 days? cos it takes about 7 days for the kidneys to secret more erythropoietin to induce the formation of more RBC in the bone marrow and for the RBCs to mature (reticulocytes -> RBCs, after removal of nucleus). currently, if my blood undergoes a hematocrit, it'll show 10% of reticulocytes and 30% RBC approx. normal levels: reticulocytes =1%, RBC = 45%.
please ignore the above paragraph if you don't get anything. i was recapping my Blood lecture. wahaha....
look at THIS~!!!!
a tigger mooncake~!!!
all thanks to liling =D
sweet sweet girl. knows that i like tigger =D
