Had a very bad starting to a day TODAY!! I woke up at 5.30am. Late. This one my fault lah. So i decided to take a cab cause i miss my normal train. BUT. i waited fourty five minutes for e cab before it came. I swear i am never ever gonna take a cab in the morning. Wargh i almost cried lah. Freaking taxi drivers always not there when i need them. But a lot will just pop out when you do not need them and even stop although you did not hail for ONE.. bloody hell irritated like nobody's business..
And i was late reach AH at 7.25am.. the ward lah.. so have to freaking pay back 1 1/2 hrs!!! urgh sucky.. for just 25 mins.. sickening huh? rules are rules lah. so yeah did e normal stuff.. and halfway through it nicole ask me to call mS tee. haiz. another one. i called her said i just reached and stuff. Today i think i was like super frustrated and did not do much. Started off with oral toilet. Cold compress. Parameters. Feeding The new stuff were Admission. Taking off IV plug. Yeah that was about all. Two breaks in between. 10.30am and 12.30pm. But sometimes later cause no time lah. have to finish whatever we are doing first before going.
Oh yeah and today was scary! cause NO Farouk suddenly came up and ask me to present the case. When i was supposedly to be late and didn't manage to hear the case passing over like duh! i was lost and didn't noe anything about the patients in team 2 lor. Aiyoh forgot which bed lah. But he has dengue. Then i was like shit. I dunno anything about dengue. But den learn a lot after tat. Like dengue-carriers has low blood platelet count. Platelets are apparently for blood clotting. So without it bleeding becomes very hard to stop. Therefore they are patients with CRIB which means sth like fall precaution.. nt supposed to get injured, wounded and bruised. So when we handle them have to be extra careful. Hmmm.. oh yeah we have to check their white blood cells.. too low means lesser immunity level so prone to infections.. another precaution.. so now i KNOW. ha ha aishah. STUPID.
So yeah. I realised i achieved a lot by doing all the basic major stuff today. Yeah cool. This ain't so bad huh. BUT i just realised some people ahem not saying names is forever shoving me all the dirty JOB. and she just all those minimal job. When its hard we should try right?But she gives up on first attempt and shoves it all to ME. i do not have anything to say. If you do not try then you will never learn. Although you may be good at theory doesn't mean you are at good clinical huh.. So yeah. I no comments anymore lah. Let the actions reflects and we will see what happens next.
Oh yeat got counselled by miss tee just now. she ask nt to be later hur hur. and she ask whether i wasnt comfortable with her. i am, not comfortable. but of course never tell her. and also trying my best to adapt. just now once again HER actions were reflected when i was left alone to do ADMISSION. i tell you at the beginning she did not even try. she got all flustered up dunno at wat lah. I mean she learnt chinese I DIDN'T but somehow she can't communicate and left me to do e job. ish. i nth to say. she left at 3.oopm. and was like rushing. i mean staying back a few minutes wun die lah. so i did one admission ALONE! great. but i handled it all right. and i left 3.45pm. hurhur. but i learnt loads! at least and the patient thank me. sth we as nurses always look forward to.
I think i have the nursing vibes in me already YEAH! I am used to all this already and also thinking it is more fun lah nt bad. hur hur. just sometimes can get tired. which job doesn't right? so yeah.. signing off for today!
