it being children's day tmr...
GAWD! I MISS BEING A KID!
well, technically, i still feel that kid inside of me but reality checks keep shunning that kid aside.
oh the wonders of being a working adult. tsk...
i miss school.. i never knew i'd ever say this, but i REALLY REALLY miss school..
the stress, the mugging, the bitching (ok, i only miss this when the bitch hotspot does NOT belong to me =p)
sad to say, i miss the whole interlada.. the drama mama of it all.
but its ok i guess.. cause i have plans. & hopefully (big insyaallah here man) it'll all work out.
hari raya is in 12 days. TWELVE!
i managed to escape geylang this year, YEAYNESS CAN!!
arab street is enough. speaking of arab street, i was shopping for tudungs with the mother this afternoon & we passed by oh-so-many exotic food places. i have only been to one turkish restaurant. now im having the sudden weird cravings for these kinda food. ok,this problem shall be resolved after raya.. suker lah aku!
i totally forgot the kandahar street bazaar still exists! (well, u cnt blame me.. hvnt been there in years) it still looks the same to me.
the hot weather wasnt helping.
& the outrageously cute/curly haired turkish dude selling kebabs wasnt helping my iman at all.
"sesungguhnyer aku ni berpuasa.. amin!"but then again, ive always been a rebel. so i bought a kebab from him.. he actually called a customer "siao" (like very cute lah.. turkish dude saying "siao". imagine with the accent all.. *fans self*)
killer smile.. syukran & afuan exchanged..
fuyooo.. imanku DICABAR beb!
then i bid my goodbye =)
sal, we need boyfriends babe. ok SCRAP THAT.
a sugardaddy sounds good, no??

Nisa, let me help u refresh your memory.. the utensils we named ourselves after
(we're THAT crazy remember)
1) Haya =
Sendok2) Sally = Periuk
3) Azi = Cawan
4) Nisa = Piring
5) Fana = Mangkok
one of the many pictures i love the best. you can help yourselves to more of our madness here.
i think we're growing up too fast. the last time i checked, we're still kids. we miss being in school. we miss being rebels in class. we miss spending good ol' gossip sessions with each other. BUT reality check. we have grown up. maybe not much.. and hopefully, we'll watch each other grow more. =)
fyi pwincess.. im NOT turning into a minah.. sheeeeeesh!!!
is saying "DOK" at the end of every sentence minah-ish?? somebody explain that theory to me pls. thanks yous very nice =)

as i am typing this entry, my tears just rolled down..
seri radhiah a.k.a
"my fair indian convert" just sent me a long email.
i miss her SO DAMN MUCH dammit!!
i have this urge to dial her hp no. every time.
she's doing well in India. telling me about all the cheap slash good food there.
will my parents flip if a take a 3 day tour to bangalore??
eh, dont say 3 lah.. just the mention of India is enough to make them extra.. erm.. extra "loud" (read: bebel-an yang tiada kesudahannyer)
ok, the tears have subsided now.
btw, mission OPEN fast with MAD GIRLS was a friggin complete success can!!! like WOOHOo!
nisa has emailed the pictures.
but hotmail hates me. hence the missing email. GODDAMMIT!
i shall post some once i receive it.
fyi, i have missed these girls so much,
parting was such sweet sorrow (chehdehbabs! romeo & juliet keper?? this goes to show, i still have some literature shitty shmitty in me. haha)

there were tears & she left....
thank god for mar.. i love them both equally lah eh =)
ok, kentalodeh is probably about to land in BANGALORE right.about.now.
si seri radhiah ni ader sikit Kancheong Spider (K.S.), so she packed 9 packets of maggi mee. sucha genius! i actually asked her, "u think india kekurangan maggi ke?"
dah bagos tu dier tak pack sambal ke sana. ke-makcik-an habes. CHET!
omg, i miss her already. u take care over there love.. have fun... email always dear :)

to know that i have colleagues.. wait.. more like friends looking out for me at work..
it gives me that sense of protection. like a safety net. something i can fall back on.. on days like these..
i had EVERY intention of blacking out. turning out into one crazy workaholic was never an interest of mine. be a smart worker.. now, that's something to consider, right??
i have a feeling i have disappointed
her terribly. we just got back on the high road. laughing, joking.. & shit HAD to happen. kentot babz lah. (in view of the holy month, i have refrained myself from maki-ing.. maki-ing shall resume when the time is appropriate.)
the godsis is flying off tmr..
tissue boxes are a must..
loads of pictures will be taken,
for nostalgic purposes.. haa!!
I NEED A HUG!!!!!

what's a nurse's fear??1) doing a medication error (eg: forgetting to give a patient her insulin jab)2) relatives hounding you with questions you have NO ABSOLUTE answer to3) the ward HO going awol on you, it's already 1030am & he hasnt done ANY of your discharges4) you're at home, thinking you've passed a fairly good report. only to have your colleague call you to say you've forgotten to do something for the patientand i keep telling myself.. "i'm new.. mistakes are often made. i'll learn from them"
but sometimes, there'll be that one moment when all i want to do is bang my head on the wall.
just because of the stupid annoying things i forget.
it's just so... eeergh!

september 11 was supposedly a day for the 4 of us to just hangout/ let loose/ go wild..
we even requested for day offs together.
BUT, the 2 working morning shifts just had to bubble us. (current fav word : pangseh)
so me & anna ended up camwhoring ourselves to death at vivo's rooftop. but not before piling the stomach with late lunch followed by B & Js..
p.s: it's 5 minutes to buka & here i am posting pictures of food. tak taubat langsung!
happy break-fasting people!!!
*my mum just cooked a feast fit for 10. WHAT'S NEW??*

my lungs are incapacitated with piles & piles of dust.
oh don't get me wrong.. i'm not in malaysia or anything (im not being rude. tsk!)
im ATTEMPTING to clean my room. and let me tell you, my room is so bloody square & small that the amount of dust i found scares the crap out of me.
dust here, dust there.
there's dust EVERYWHERE!!!
omg can!!
everyone i know is trying to revamp their bedroom somehow. be it a change of colour.. buying new sofa beds. i have thought of revamping mine of course. budget notwithstanding, i would love to make my bedroom "lounge-y"..
which means, bean bag couches.. a sofa bed, a small cocktail table. extra dvd/vcd racks (im still an avid collector. seriously, dont ask).. painting the room a sexy maroon-ish colour. oh man. & it doesnt help that the IKEA catalogue is spread out right in front of my eyes.. in all it's brilliant glory. goodness!!
a wage bonus would come in handy right about now. what with hari raya coming & all.. i have to keep reminding myself im no longer a receiver.. & that im a GIVER. (oh the horror.)
alright. let's pack up the dust and move on to another vital topic.
my MAD GIRLS.. i cnt belief that the day after tmr is puasa already & we still hvnt meet up.. esp nisa.. i may have forgotten how u look like can? tsk tsk. so much for hanging out in the sun with picnics & whatnots. but heck. we can change that to staring at stars in the night. cheh.. like seriously, what the heck did i just say???

scfucks.

i had my first training leave today.. it was some IT course..
i swear these IT courses are just an excuse for us to catch up with old friends & bitch. like seriously yo!
boredom struck us pretty quick & we were actually entertaining ourselves by checking out friendster accounts. posting one idiotic comment after another. blog-hopping, etc, etc..
then came the part when we found out SGH offered a link to "languages"..
now.. this.. made us laugh so bad we were lucky we ddnt herniate!
note: do pay extra careful attention to the malay & hokkien version of the word, thank you.
and all these while we thought "chio bu" only means pretty lady.. tsk!
"bah bi" has a whole new meaning people!!!
Hokkien 101 babe!! (i love this freaking dialect. its so.. interesting, no?? ("wa sibey kang kor lah.. nahbey!!")
the joke lasted the whole damn day. and it got worse when tia (another fellow batch-girl) found out she had 3 days MARRIAGE LEAVE.
shock of the century can! just imagine.. getting marriage leave when u dont even know ur getting married! best part.. she smsed her bf asap & his initial response was a classic "WTF?"
so seeing that we really had nothing to do.. we helped her plan her "wedding". kenduri will be held at our houseman canteen.. red carpet all rolled out.. ambulance parked at the sides making kompang "kelepak, kelepuk" & we, the trustee kendarats putting $10 on our name tag lapels. what vivid imaginations we have..
oh wells, it turned out that her ward sister gave the wrong nurse her marriage leave. apparently their names are pretty close! scary to the mary dokk!! ni hal kahwin-kahwin ader sikit sensitip. dont pray-pray hor..
oh, kentalodeh to the max!
we ended early so me & fa decided to head to expo to check out the book fair. i ddnt even know about it. & oh my.. it's seriously over rated. maybe its just us.. we have too high an expectation for good books. chet!
this was not the first cute toddler we came across otw to expo. we're just tickled by their silly antics. seriously. they can irritate you yet when they wave a little goodbye to you, habes. you just melt.
finally, a decent photo =)

oh oh!! i bought 2 months supply of kotex & pantyliners caaaan!! ohmigod.. cheap S-H-I-T...
-----------------------
yesterday was HO switch-over day.. having no bloody HO in the ward on a monday is a definite no-no.. like seriously.. im starting to miss kee tung... he's like a safety net. best part, the new HO actually asked me how to print an OT chit. hello?? the blind leading the blind caaaaaan??? he's from paeds posting in KK.. i do not blame him. period. you know why? just because he carries a "DORAEMON" bag.
-----------------------
im starting to hate shift work.. i had no issues initally and i KNOW the beginning is supposed to feel like this but i feel like im missing out a whole lot. meeting up with loved ones is taking too much of my brain power.. juice drying up. omg!! i want to blame work so bad but it's my freaking ricebowl.. so ok.. moral of the story.. im in this line.. i foresaw this last time. i can deal..
hell, i actually broke down TWICE. and i told myself i was never going to. shit happens.
u have NO FUCKING IDEA how much i hate you. right about now.
