My Life's a Mess~~~

Sad..sad..
Been having mood swings recently.. Is it because of the pressure of assignments/reports/presentations? Or worrying about future?
Or is it due to poor time management??

ya..my life has became kelam kabut now~
is supposed to be doing report..but then blogging over here..listening to Wang Lee Hom's
"Xin Tiao".. =P
maybe back to usm, everyone is too busy with their own workload.. no one to talk to..

someone..talk to me~
somehow they don understand..

On Hospital Tengku Ampuan Afzan (HTAA), Kuantan

HTAA..just completed my dietetics clinical placement there..
this hospital has a significant impact in my life..
maybe i should jot this down before i forget..
life is impermanent, we wont know what will happen tomorrow :)

I'd been to HTAA for many many times..
tats y i know where are all the departments located (hehe..someone asked me..'why u know all the places, you used to despatch documents for the dietetics department izit?')
Nop, its not that..

1
When I was young (primary school age - Form 1/Form 2), my grandfather (Wai Gong) was often hospitalised in HTAA due to complications of his disease (Gastric ulcer i think). When its 5.30 pm, my parents would go to the hospital to visit him, me & my sisters would tag along. I still remember that it was always the 5th floor of the hospital.
Gong Gong passed away in HTAA in December 2000, just a few days before Christmas. I was there when he was about to leave, it was before midnight. I can still recall how the doctors and nurses tried to resuscitate him, and how the 'representatives' from the 'coffin shop' approached my uncle for business.

When I was in school, I was an active member of the St John Ambulance. During the end-of-year school holidays of Form 4, me & my cousin went for Hospital Duty in the A&E department of HTAA. We went for ambulance calls, helped the Medical Assistants in simple cases, took the patients' BP, temperature, blood glucose, and assist patients to the wards. Really gained lots of experience. I had 100+ hours of duty :)

3
For my Food Service practical, I went to HTAA as well because I like to be at home :) Good food + transport available.. This time in the Dietetics Department of HTAA.. I was there for 2 months.

Hoohoo..for my 10-weeks Clinical Placement recently, I did it in HTAA's Dietetics Department too..Really gained more knowledge & made more friends...

Ok..tats why I know HTAA so well .. =P
