Twentieth

I'm officially 20 now, no more teenager for me, I'm a youth now..xDD
My 20th b'day was pretty good, the bad thing was I received lesser ang pou compared to last year! My ang pou money is lesser than rm 100! How pathetic, huh?
Overall, quite a meaningful b'day, the fullest b'day I ever celebrated with my friends. =)

Days In Laboratory

My second week of my Internship 

I been distributed to hematology department for 2 weeks. So far so good since today was my second day in this department. The environment sometime make me feel sleepy when there were no samples to examine. Today I almost fall asleep inside the lab. I can say that after my lunch hour was really my sleeping time! No samples, No one to talk to, No entertainment, No place to lepak! Ouch, it was a hard time for me! But I did learn lots of stuffs from there, and I think my colleagues will feel I'm very annoying since I keep asking questions and also call them to prepare questions to ask me. They are friendly for me, but some of them are just like so cool or may be shy huh?

My Second day ...

My second day of my intern was exactly the same as the first day. Everyday  9am, 11am and 2pm I have to follow my funny senior named Tommy to 'tour' around different wards. And I would say Adventist Hosp is just like a maze, without the guidance of Tommy, I think I will be lost in the hosp. 1pm is my lunch time and yet the lunch is FOC! Adventist Hosp is fully vegetarian, no meats are allowed. I entitle for 3 dishes and 1 fruit for my lunch, worth it, huh! Even though I dint get any allowance, I'm happy working with my colleagues (sometime is kinda boring).  

This morning was different from yesterday,  I followed another 2 seniors or supervisors (Mai Kay and Kevin) to do quality control (QC) test in ICU/CCU and also Maternity ward. It just a simple procedures like to place a strip into an automated machine and drop a drop of Perfoma (for QC purpose) at the edge of the strip, and press some buttons and the QC was done ! An easy job ever! Haha...  

After the QC, I returned to Outpatient Department Laboratory (OPD) as usual, and the scene stunned me when I pass by the registration department! Adventist Hosp isn't a government Hosp and yet the patients are more than what I expect. You can try to imagine yourselves were in the crowd of a morning market, the crowd was really scary. To add on, most of the patients are from Madras, India and Jakarta, Indonesia, just wondering is it the medication fee in India and Indonesia is too high or the Hosp in these countries are too 'low standard' ? I wonder..still searching for an answer =)

2 of my friends and I followed Tommy to 'tour' around different wards as we did in our first day, and the things that we need to do are just preparing tubes (Different color of tubes consist of different types of contents and it needs to do different tests), cotton wool, alcohol swap, tourniquet (Flexible band to make the veins more prominent and easier to puncture) and of course needle is the most important equipment (20, 21, 24- numbers indicate the diameter of the needle, the larger the number, the smaller the diameter) [I am not sure about the number, confirm on tomorrow]. All stuffs prepared, the next thing we need to do is to find vein (either cephalic, median or basilic vein), venipucnture is performed by phlebotomist. This venipuncture is depend on patient, vein in patient may be sometime easily to find but its hard for some patients also. Some patients may have swollen (edema) arm, sometime the blood that we drawn may be insufficient. As encountered these problems, we have to report to nurse station or do 'tube sharing'. (Rarely seen these situations happen, but within 2 days, I think have already encountered few cases happened)

Its just my second day, and I already assigned few tasks to do, I have to do report as what I did during my days in UTAR, its a report per odd week, and 2 reports per even week. And I need to do lots of research and studies in order for me to know what I'm doing..

In brief, my life will always be dealing with BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD! Aside from blood, its URINE URINE URINE. If not urine, its STOOL STOOL STOOL. So my future life would be like a B.U.S. Haha.....

Tomorrow I will be having my orientation consecutively for 2 days. I wish it would be fun while not dull. Happy Orientation to ME!. 

I believe ... ... ... ...

I always BELIEVE in miracles

Been a week I am at Penang, I still can't really adjust my biological clock since I used to sleep at the middle of the night for the past few months. Yet, I am just can't wait for the coming Monday! Just wish every thing will be fine and goes smoothly ... 


Yesterday ... 
I was startled when my mom told me that we have to shift to a new house due to some reasons, and this really make me headache. First is about shifting, I been shifted twice in Kampar, and the scenarios were so horribly terrible and dusty. I am allergy to dusts first of all, and I really like the facilities here (my current house), yet you need me to shift from a place full of memories? I think the only reason why I oppose the ideal of shifting is ... I lazy to shift, unless I need not to touch anythings, arrange anythings, and wipe anythings. It's great if I need not to do ANYTHINGS ..HaHa


From my view, I personally felt my new house is quite nice for me, its huge too! Facilities are satisfactory! The environment is considered silent and high class since the building granted the name as condominium. The condo faced 2 graves, but it ain't a grave yard, and in accordance to the estate agent said that my new house previous owner owned his OWN new semi-detached house! This had proven that this house was full prosperity ? 


I have nothing to sound out my opinion, the only thing I can do is just wait and shift...I believe in miracle, waiting for a miracle to happen if my

From now on, I am officially free for three months without touching, reading and seeing any notes and text books. It is awesome when I think about it, but its worse to have such kind of life, Its kinda boring somehow.... However, its kind of excitement when I got to know that I have the chance to work in hospital. 

I got the offer from Adventist Hospital as a trainee in the Lab I guess. The worst thing is my working hours is from morning 8am tills 5pm, there's a break in between. The weirdest thing is Sunday isn't my holiday, its Saturday instead. --..--  This kind of life is going to last for 12 weeks if no any "accident" during my last semester's results. 

A passion to heal, a heart to Care

The Layout of the hospital, the car park spaces are limited! 

 

Going to update my working experience as a trainee soon! =)
