My first day at NUH

I was really excited yet scared(shy) for today. Firstly, we all had to report at the auditorium and it was good seeing familiar faces like people from the same lecture group. Waited for some quite time before the staff from NUH came over and gave us a talk. I don't know if I have been brainwashed or something, but I really like this place! If given a choice to choose where I would want to work my whole life, it would definitely be NUH!

We went touring around the hospital and flashbacks came upon me as I recalled the area. Though, everywhere has been renovated and nicely done up.

As you know, I have been posted to a different ward from my classmates. But can I say that it is a blessing in disguise? Because Matt worked in the exact same ward as I! So more or less I do know certain things. The girls from other tutorial groups are nice too! Not hostile or whatsoever.

The only disappointing things is that I did handwashing wrongly as I mixed up the step! :( So much for practising in the public toilets when my friends are around to see. Nevermind... Learn again.. At least our clinical instructor is really nice!

Thank God I worked in banquet before coming here! They are somewhat similiar. Like when someone bigger asks you to do a certain thing, you just go "orh." and do it. Ok, maybe this time round, I have to be more initiative because this concerns life. But working is definitely not a problem to me! *recalls the 12hour working time in banquet, causing me to really faint* So I urge you to have a part time job during the holidays to learn and explore!

Doing afternoon shift tomorrow, which means I have time for myself and I can view my results tomorrow morning! (heard from everywhere that results will be out on the 16th)

Ok, time to recall my theory now! Don't wanna be blur tomorrow...

PS: I just hope that my left second left toe will shrink a few mm so that my shoes can be comfortable.
