Drunk @ Tabs & Interview @ ESH

Let's recap. It has been an eventful weekend. I was on leave on Friday. Attended a meeting with Alex in his office. It was tea thereafter in Bugis and i came back to office to clear some work. Went off to Gleneagles Hospital to take care of an individual patient. He's from UAE, an Arabic. I managed to learn 4 new Arabic words.

Hamam - Toilet
Boul - Pass Urine aka P.U
Boras - Defecate aka B.O
Myad - Water

Reached home at about 11am the next morning (Saturday) and slept. Didn't have a good rest as my sleep was interrupted. Woke up at 2pm and 4pm respectively. Was supposed to have a meeting with Alex and a partner in the evening, but Alex couldn't make it, so it was post-phoned to Sunday. Since i had nothing on, I met up with my parents in Parkway Parade and ate at Central - the place where the sell Hong Kong Cuisine. Didn't feel like going home so early, so i decided to ask the rest of the 88 thread guys out. Andrew, Jasper and Bastian had already planned to meet at Mox, so i joined them there along with Lulu. I felt like drinking that night so i ordered a Lychee Martini. Julian smsed me to go over to Tabs, so i agree and brought all the guys (actually only Lulu and Bastian over as Andrew and Jasper had left) over. There was no queue at all at Tabs but there was a long queue at Play. Most prob coz DJ George was spinning that night from 2am onwards - one night only.

Met Guohui and Addie inside. Not too long after, Addie bought aka gave me drinks. 1 jug of Vodka Orange. Well, what to do, had to finish it lorz... And then, Guohui went to buy 10 shots of Teq. and i was asked to take 2 shots. I was getting groggy. Then came Addie again with a Flaming Lambo. After i downed it, i began to feel bad.. And not long after, about 5 mins, i walked to the restroom and puked like a Merlion. Luckily not many people i know were there as i really looked very very unglam then. Left soon after for Maxwell and ordered a place of fried bee hoon. Didn't really finish it. Took a cab home and "plonked into bed and slept all the way. Couldn't really sleep as i was feeling warm and such. Woke up at about 11am and went over to Pierce Secondary School. St John's were having their annual zone 1 first aid cum home nursing competition. Walked around and such. There after, it was nothing much till evening. Met up with Alex and a partner for a business discussion. Went to St James as PowerHouse was having Fabulous Summer. Whoa, it was big with superb sound and lighting. Left at about 2am for home. Slept.

Woke up this morning and headed down to East Shore Hospital for an interview. I was brought into the Operating Theatre and after the interview, i was given a tour of the theatre. It's small and cosy. Man, i think i'm in luck and if i don't get this job, i think i'm just suay and cursed for this year. 1 staff of theirs is leaving back to his hometown on April 14. And here i am, a suitable replacement. The Assistant Director of Nursing told me that most prob i'll be getting the job. Now, i'm just awaiting a call which will come in either tomorrow or Wednesday. If i do get it (hopefully i'll be paid equal or more than my current job), i'll be going for the medical examination on Wednesday or Thursday and I'll start work in East Shore's OT on Monday, 2 April 2007.

Till then,

Take care!

National Service

It's time for me to update my blog. Blogging using my laptop now. No, i'm not in office. It's just that after cleaning up my room last sunday, my desktop decided to give up on me. So now, i've to use my lappy at home. And i can't let me parents know about it, else they'll scream at me. Since I have a monitor and i'm running on my laptop, i'm using the desktop's monitor as the extended desktop. So now, i'm running mIRC on the extended desktop.

The week has been uneventful. Nothing much happened. Went for dinner with a few of the 88 thread guys on wednesday evening to "celebrate" Alvin and Yong Sen's last dinner with us as a civilian. They both enlisted on Friday morning and afternoon respectively.

Went to Play club on friday for their opening. Free flow of champaign. I drank only half a flute as I didn't like it - not the drink but alcohol. Went back again on Saturday for condom distribution. It was Fridae's launch of V5.0 as well. Went to maxwell for supper and came back. Slept at 7am this morning and woke up at 4.30pm. Did nothing until now.

And my company's suffering from HR woes again. Anyone looking for a job? I'm looking for a Web Coordinator as well as a Multimedia Designer. Should you know of anyone suitable, please let me know or ask them to contact me.

Thanks!

My Life's Torn.

Called up Monash University's Singapore representative today regarding my application. They say that there's no news and application usually takes up to 8 weeks. Seems that i'll just have to be patient.

I'm awaiting a reply from Changi General Hospital. I've just sent in an application letter today to East Shore Hospital. ESH is a private hospital managed by Parkway Healthcare Group, which also owns Gleneagles and Mount Elizabeth. It pays definately muich better than CGH. but workload wise, I'm not sure.

I'm going through a bad time in my life now. My pc in the room crashed, no job and no partner.
I feel so much like a spare tyre. Really. This haunts me. It's no wonder i haven't been sleeping well and getting nightmares these few days. This has left me very tired.

Sigh...
Why must love deny you, what your heart believes is right? Why must love cause pain and anger, when it should bring you delight.

The Big Cleanup

I spent last evening and this evening cleaning up my room. From sucking everything up to throwing everything (well, almost) out of my room. I counted about 14 bags in total. I getting ready to buy a new bed. Perhaps a table too. Well, and that would cost like $800 in total. That's expensive.

Going over to Ikea tomorrow with kennie and thereafter to action theatre to watch The Swimming Instructor. I actually planned to meet him early then for lunch. But i think, he'll most prob wake up at noon or even past noon so it's confirmed, guaranteed and endorsed by me that we'll meet after lunch time. (even though he says that he hopes to wake up in the morning, i really have doubts.)

Can it be that i'm not trusting him enough? Or is it that i know that he wun be able to wake up early? well, i'm not sure. i guess it's both. I've been having nightmares for the past 2 nights. And once i wake up, i just hope that it doesn't turn into reality. I'm not sure what i would do if it does. Just jump down for the 23rd floor in bedok south?

I thought it through the other day (quite some time back) about the both of us and what i would do. Suicide - a chicken way? Nah... well, but sometimes, isn't it the easiest way out?

Grrr...

Post Interview

Went for a job interview at CGH yesterday. At first i got kinda excited when the Assistant Director of Nursing asked me if I wanted to work in the Emergency Department as there was a lack of staff there. Then, the nurse clinician from ED came and said, u go back to work in the wards first. It's such a spoiler.

Back to Birthday Thank You's:- Ahteh Jingle, Christel and Ken from Sportsmenasia. I actually bought a tee from SMA, but when Ken found out that it was my birthday, he gave it for free. It's a very nice pink color tee. Limited edition. I'm so delighted.

I'll be giving my world book encyclopedia to someone at last. Now i'm finally getting rid of 1 shelf. I'll have to start cleaning it soon, as i hope to get rid of it by monday. Next would be my games and books. I'll sell it to the rag and bone man to do my part for the environment. As for my music books, I'm not sure what i should do with them. Guess i'll keep those and i'm sure it'll come in handy one day.

I'll be going to ikea on sunday to shop for my bed and buy it. I'm not sure if i should buy the corner desk as well. Sigh...

Happy Birthday MiRaNtZ

I'm 22 now. Celebrated my birthday at Mox Bar and Cafe early this morning. Shortly after mid-night, I was greeted by a birthday cake. But before that, it was dinner at Cafe Cartel @ Marina Square. I shared a Seafood Platter for 3 with Kennie and Alex. Thanks to all present who paid for my dinner.

Alex passed me a present and when i opened it, i got a pleasant surprise - in it was a blue iPod Nano. I've not expected such an expensive gift.

Slept at 4+am this morning and woke up at 7am to head down to St John's for the Home Nursing lesson. Went home and slept at about 3pm and woke up at 8pm just now. My head's feeling a little heavy. Guess it's just not enough sleep.

Thanks very much:- Kennie, Alex, Lulu, Sennie, Bastian, You Jin, Brian, Jasper, Andrew and Edwin. Have i missed out anyone??? I'm sorry if i've missed ya out.

22 Years

It's been some time since I've last updated my blog. Many things has happened. I've resigned from Ann Siang Media and applied to Changi General Hospital. I'm going down for an interview on Tuesday. I'll be helping Alex with his company as he's now attached to his friend's company to do some video-editing job. Both Marcus and I are thinking of something to do. I guess the first project we'll embark would to be to help market Sennie dad's KTV. Hopefully it goes through.

It's less than 25 hours before i turn 22 years of age. Sadly, none of my friend remembered my birthday except for Brian, who still remembers - he asked me if it was my birthday this sunday a few days back. It's such a sweet thing to know that someone still remembers you.

I've been hooked to the music of Dreamgirls. I did up this montage while listening to the soundtrack just now. All the pictures (except for 1 or 2) were taken using my Sony Erricson Z610 mobile phone. As there's no flash, pictures taken in the dark are bad. I had to use Photoshop to brighten it. And as my design skills are bad, please pardon me. These are the people who walked with me and I'm rather close to them. See if you know who they are. IF you're not here, it doesn't mean that you're not close to me, but we haven't taken any pictures together, or you've not sent our pictures to me!

Okie.. Just an update. Sennie remembers it too. He has wanted to ask me out for dinner tomorrow since this evening. So sweet~~~~

Goodnight peeps! I shall wait for Kennie to come home as he's with his kor at Toa Payoh now. I bet he's enjoying himself..
