2 months.

So it has been 2 months into my advanced diploma course. I am really very thankful to have the privilege to go through this crazy course. No doubt the projects and assignments set me thinking about work. I simply can't wait to go back to be a better nurse! I really want to contribute to my ward and ease the workload and burden of others. Not to give them extra. Hahaha...

Just saying, I think one's attitude can be determined by his or her willingness to change. Like if we encounter something that requires us to change, just change lah! Suck it up, adapt to changes quickly and live on...

Also, if you are a part of a team, please bring everyone up and don't push people down. I honestly don't think it's the right attitude if you don't wanna turn up because majority of the other members can't make it that day. You know, as a whole, it just brings everyone's morale down. And I'm hearing it from someone who didn't turn up a fair bit. It's like I can say, "Speak for yourself.".

I do feel pressured. As a "leader", I want things to turn out good with a positive spirit. Yet I have to say such things that might make people unhappy with me. It's like I'm torn between both ends. I guess, as a leader, you need to have a certain degree of assertiveness. But with that, some people might dislike you. I can't please everyone anyway. And maybe, I can't expect everyone to be as committed as me.

Yes, I do aspire to go to the manager pathway. Is this a test for me?

On a not so brighter note, HELL(health) assessment is coming up and my research proposal will be due on Monday! But all's well! I am enjoying this learning process as much as I can :)
