Part II - Attachment at TTSH

This morning, got chance to see how the nurses bathe or change diapers of the elderly patients. This is what I am expected to do first thing when i'm posted to hospitals for training. They won't allow us to do the "chim" ones.. so have to do the dirty job first. I observed the student nurses cleaning the patients and they are doing fine with it.. so i thought, if they can do it, I can do better (stepford wife's motto) !

There is this senior male nurse, Mr Laylee who has worked for 16yrs. He used to be a rocker. His first interview was rejected maybe becos of his rugged looks. He tried the following year, and got in. What makes them take him in this time, we asked. His answer was his looked descent with short hair. We asked him why chose nursing? His reply was simple.. " Interest" . Then, the challenging part is whether we can sustain this "interest" for long.... hmmmm.. sounds familiar.. 3 sec excitement.

I have made a 3new friends from this attachment. They are Ernest the 41- yr real estate agent, 24 yr old airport police and 23 yr old ex-starhub cso. All of them had their interview. Mine will be this Thursday. Can't wait for the interview and medical check up to be over. The HR officer, Clare confirmed that all shld be settled by end Sept, and its when i know whether i'm a successful candidate for the Accelerated Dip in Nursing @ NYP next year, sponsored by SMCP.

Got a lot of time after TTSH, so decided to have a hair cut at Blk 1 Rochor 3 flr shop name " Chest" hairdresser. Cheap and very satisfied. The hairdresser automatically did a soft rebonding for me for free! Will recommend to friends. Next, facial. The 1st treatment out of 5. Was attended by Beautician YangYang. She worked on my forehead and scrubbed off the dark patch on my left check. Painful and it was unbearable when she touched on the nose and around that area. I hate! So sensitive..kept sneezing. Next appt will be on Wednesday,15 Sept 1500hrs. What a day.. tired!
