Somemore plus our movie tickets ish = $29.90

Moreover after our movie (2.30 to 4plus), we went to walk around in north pt...

Walk till 5.30pm... we went the nearest pasar malam ^^v

Yup. jus both of us :) *from 4.15pm to 6.10pm

FACTS about MUSIC & LYRICS:

-COMEDY
-PG13 for some sexual content
A singer (Hugh Grant), whose career has slid into oblivion, has his lack of success rubbed in his face when he's asked to write a hit song for a teen pop princess. Stuck on composing music for somebody else, the distraught vocalist enlists the lyric-writing help of a goofy young lady (Drew Barrymore).

Yeah! stayed at home the whole day.

Raining since last night and till this morning.
sob! i thought can go play basketball.
Nvm then. next time bah (:
time to rest my mind, soul and body...
it's been a long time since i can relax.

Surf net, eat and play. haha!
Watched tv!
Channel 5 this afternoon at 1pm " BORN TO BE WILD "
Nice show! Funny & touching show.
It's about gorillas! no no. ish gorilla only =x
lOlx ^^
A very intelligent gorilla named KAtie.
used hand signs to communicate...
well... the story begins with a guy capturing gorillas for money.
KAtie was left with a single parent family and it appeared that the mum was a scientist.
Doing experiments on KAtie... ...
but... that bad guy who captures gorillas, had no choice but to ask this mummy scientist for KAtie as bad guy's gorilla felt ill. ( could no longer perform & make money )
KAtie could not accept the fact that she's been watched by so many spectators "strangers"
The boy from the single-parent family (Mummy scientist's son) has become closer and closer to this gorilla each day as he's been "grounded" to do hse chores in the lab where KAtie was kept in the cage for experiments.
As for the reason why the son was "grounded" because he illegally drive + caught speeding for many times and his mummy scientist had warned him too many times too =x
Continued as what i wanted to say ... the son wanted to save and "Stole" KAtie out of the bad guy's hands.
Fortunately, he escaped with KAtie and went to hide with his "girl fren" 's help.

His life with KAtie began... ...

Went for my afternoon nap after that. haha!
Ate dinner with my mum and siblings.

A relaxed day!!!

Dreams by Cranberries

Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
Never quite as it seems

I know I felt like this before
But now I’m feeling it even more
Because it came from you

Then I open up and see
The person fumbling here is me
A different way to be

I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
They’ll come true, impossible not to do
Impossible not to do

Now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don’t hurt me
For what I couldn’t find

Talk to me amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You’re everything to me

Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it’s never quite as it seems
’cause you’re a dream to me
Dream to me

This song is very nice.
I heard it since i was young.
(: nice?

Many things happened.
i just cant get over them...
i guess i have to slowly...
bit by bit...
one by one...
and... try to get over them!

lots of them.

as i have mentioned in my previous entry that most of my patients discharged.
not much patients there.
one patient is on NGT feeding. sacral sore. ++
need high dependency.
so... after changing diapers, changing dressing, NGT feeding,
patient transferred from this bed to the bed at behind cubicle.
to... Angie's cubicle!
hmm... angie has to do the changing diapers for her. oh no. need at least 3 students in order to change diapers.
and... is not very simple.
heard that she will be discharged at 16March.

this begins...
transfering the bed.
me and sarifah push the bed from the other bed to the bed that she's going to be transferred to.
and... we really have a hard time transfering ^^
transfer the special mattress that provides good pressure for those who r at risk or already having bed sores.
BLUE mattress/
got air pumping in. somewhat like a pressure mattress.
hahaha!!! we have no choice but to take out the plug when transfering.
air leaking out the moment we plug out.
oops... trying to put back the plug. but cant...
try hard...
try fast...
finally... after laughing and giggling for a moment.
air leaking and we trying to plug in so as not to let the air leak out till the bed deflated.
lOlx. ^^
transfer the patient to the bed!!!
the patient smile at me the moment i smile at her!! she's so nice (:
but... she cant communicate. she speaks cantonese + chinese.

i got patient from other ward when last attachment held, transferred here in this ward.
woah. must take care of her... she changed alot. dropped alot of hair ):

went break with Sarifah at abt 6.30pm!!!
late, right?
having break for our afternoon shift so late!
poor thing, right?
Sharon sayang me... heez
eating in the staff rm cos we got takeaways.
this pentry guy came and sat in the staff rm with me to eat his dinner.
he eats so fast! guys mah, what do i expect? haha!!!
he so naughty. imitate my laughter. tease us. joke with us. chat with us.
well well. he's taken. lOlx.
he's from Europe. his name: Rohan. ( i think the spelling shld b lik tis. )
the last part; we say bye to him, then he say fine.
then the next moment he went out of the staff rm n switch off the lights.
duh!!! so bad. we're still in the rm. HELLO?!
darkness... but filled with laughter.
i guess - laughter could cover up the darkness (:
then i switched on the lights. he came in later.
=.= angry!!!
we went out and ignored him.
testing whether i'm a maths expert.
wahaha! our turn to tease him when we top up the paper cups.
total of 250 cups.
me- 1
sarifah- 1
auntie- 2
then we asked him to come over.

spend more than half an hr for a complex wound + a simple dressing at the toe on the same patient
spend fortyfive mins help patient's elimination needs + sponging + dressings.
(normally only sponging + dressing takes about half an hr)
why i know how much time we took?

wahaha!!!
becos we students need to time how much time we had contact with the patients.
Contact time :)
we got stopwatches provided.
we need to chart down the contact time.

/got codes/
para-taking [O1]
taking 0xygen saturation [O2]
elimination needs [L1]
hygiene (full body) [H1]
dressing/stoma care [R2]
these r the ones i could rmb.
