Bored bored bored...
Really nothing much to do now. Sigh... Went running twice today. May be going for a cycle later. Been watching Full Metal Alchemist. Quite a nice anime. Good story, but I'm kind of tired of watching liao.
Anyone wannna go swimming? Cycling?
Been a really fun week.
Darling and I marathoned the whole Date With Vampire 3 series. What a freaking LAME ending. Can't stand it...
That occupied us from Sunday to Wed. Had dim sum at Ho Kee Pao at Geylang one of those days. Wah, food damn nice, anyone wants to meet for dim sum soon?
Thursday to Saturday was Jun's chalet. Had lots of fun... thanks girl. :) Ti ti tiu! Glad that everyone had fun there. I was cheffing most of the time, glad nobody complained about my cooking. But hor, I only cooked simple stuff, so nothing much to complain about anyway.
Ate toooo much. Sigh... Cannot stand myself. So objective for this month is to lose 5 kg. To a dry weight of 75kg. Hope I can stick to it. Small step at a time.
Went to optician to get my glasses done. Super ex siah... $200 bucks. But think my glasses look very funky. Thinking of changing it to look a bit more professional. See how bah...

Yeah, i've technically and fully started my holidays yesterday! Finally handed in all my reports. Collected them from Shannon, she's so nice. BTW, Lindy, IPS is Inpatient Services at Singapore Genernal Hospital.
Anyway, the feeling is so good to have handed in my reports early. Going to chalet later till saturday.
Anyway, I've been back to my exercise plan. Been cycling and running. Shiok. Anyway, to my friend who's trying hard to lose weight, I'm all behind you. But cannot go over board ok? Plan ur progess in steps, or else, it'll be very hard to attain anything to feel happy about.
Like nothing much to update liao. Oh ya, darling and I have completed the Date with Vampire 3 series. After the whole series, I still think it's lame. Sigh...

Last day of attachment past. So glad it's finally over. Had a good block again, as usual. Some speed bumps along the way made my trip a little unpleasant but, I tot it was good, and I've learnt quite alot indeed. Firstly, durapore is actually a super amazing tool man...
Pauline's been a sweetie to help me buy lunch almost every IPS day. Got fruit some more... Thanks!
LPS still owes me my reports.
Got to know the group 3 girls (Chufen, Gai Heng, already knew mingfei liao) better, they're actually a fun lot. Muahahahaha...
A14 was like the lame jokes zone...
Come to think of it, a radiographer's initial is like a brand. When a radiologist or doc sees a good "brand", it'll be like using the soft, smooth but yet tough toilet paper brand. Not a pain in the ass (to intrepret) and always works well...
Some people are dumb, some people are fucked up, some just think the world owes them a living, some shouldn't open their mouths anyway.
"What to do...?"

IPS... Dunno wat to say... So yah... Hi everyone...
Wednesday, October 19, 2005
I'm super tired... I'm sick of making myself visible. There's one particular person who's getting on my nerves. Bitch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ate a curry chicken pie for tea break today. It's nice, but i think the chicken pie is nicer. Really super bored in IPS, 5 radiographers one chest case.
R1: Goes to counter to get form
R2: Stands the patient up
R3: Move the bucky
R4: Move tube
R5: Set exposure
HCA: take out cassette and alcohol rub the place
Student: Tries hard to do things...
Bored... But observing could be fun also lah...
Heee,,, I'm blogging some good news. My wet weight, fully hydrated, never shit for 2 days weight is 78kg!! Not anything major, but it's finally going down. The attachments have indeed done me good. I haven't been exercising cos I reach home daily being dead beat. But i'm sure that working cost me a hell lot more calories then just running ahalf hour a day. Being a radiographer is tough work man. Yeah rite...
Anyway, met darling for dinner today. Ate at Scotts Picnic. The chicken chop with fried rice thingy had an extremely nice picture. But damn it lah... But then again, it's very worth the price. I'm not the eat for worth-the-price-cheap-and-alot kind but i'm sure i'll satisfy the worth-the-price-cheap-and-alot kind. Anyway... Sent darling home after dinner, had a freezing good time on the bus that was soooo freaking cold. So tired now...
Kayaking is tough stuff man... works the rectus abdominis, obliques and the arms too... For some reason, my legs hurt too...

Haven't been too free to blog recently. Been busy churning up the numerous reports that I have to complete. Finished 8 out of the 11 that I need to do so far. Still got three. Should be ok bah.
Well, good news is I've found S.I. joints liao. 2 in fact, wanted to give the second one to Claire, but she like no confidence. The Qh and Aud weren't around.
When for the Primers Ohana Camp yesterday. It was quite fun. Went for kayaking and the campfire. Damn, big pelvis and kayaking don't go together man, but butt felt so tight in the tiny little seat and i kept going left. So pek chek. But it was one hell of a good work out. Started pouring when we reached Seletar Island. Hung around in the sea where they say the falling rain would hurt and the lightning would strike us. Glad i'm alive lah.
Felt sick after the camp fire. Think it's due to overexertion during the work week. And the lack of sleep. So i didn't stay overnight. Left after the dumb waterbomb game. Which I whacked and kena whacked by 3 crazy girls. HAha... It was fun lah... It's a shame I was sick...
Still a little sick now... Should be fine by tmr... fingers crossed. REally too poor now to see doctor. And I can't believe i'm still surviving with the extremely tight budget I had for this month.
Rainy days are for sleep... not reports...

I'm sorry for the disappearance from blogging for the past few days. Protowall has been blocking my access to Google servers. BTW, to all the ppl who don't know, Blogspot was bought over by Google. And Google is going to earn alot of money in the near future, if you got money should buy in Google shares.
Anyway back to the main point. I've been busy piahing my reports. Quite a GOOD number of them. I'll been honest with my count, I don't want to play bastard and act like I don't have that many competencies. current count is 11 this block. I don't jump cases, don't choose cases. Unless of cos they involve Chest X-rays or other slightly special views that are done in special rooms. Anywya, LPS have been very nice to me. And SGH is like the Knee X-ray hospital. I've dont so many knee Xrays man. Can clear a bilateral knee AP Erect, Lateral and skyline in 8 minutes flat. Including calling time and patients taking their own sweet time to get in, get on and off. Haha, I think it's a pretty good the speed, unless of course i've been dreaming. Will try to better it.
So tired these few days. Can concentrate on my reports at night. Can't concentrate on work in the morning. Sigh...
But I've just had a fuel top-up. Met Baobei today, so happy now... She's like my happy thought that I use to fly. If you guy don't understand wat's this happy thought thingy. Peter Pan and all the lost boys in Never Never Land must think of happy thoughts to fly. When Peter first started, he could fly cos he didn't know wat happy tot to use. Hmmm... I'm out of point again...

Due to the recent saga of the two Singaporean bloggers getting sued. And Mr Hnekten (an anagram of the name used to protect the identity of the person) who kena spied by someone with authority. I've decided to state my disclaimer.
It's a reminder that all articles posted are not held responsible by the owner of the blog.
Hey hey! Last day at AMKH. So nice! I've finally found the nice food there. There's the Song Heng fishball and bak chor noodle and the porridge. Both nice, double lunch serving. But wth... Report was pretty good. Afternoon was super free. Nothing much happened today.
Was pretty bored... Talk cock with Sharon.
So tired... I've incurred a major sleep debt. And I've started watching The OC season 3. Sigh...
No money.........................................................................
BTW, i really feel sorry for the 2 guys charged in court for racism remarks on their blogs. Both going jail, one of them one month the other 1 day. Sad siah...

What's a screwed up AEC, plus a screwed up bucky table that doesn't lock, plus an A+ Chest cassettes that don't reload in the daylight processor, plus tube that doesn't really move, plus irritating receptionist give you? well, you've guessed it, AMKCH DDR. Well, I still like the place alot. Such a happy place, cute chronic patients and 3 really nice radiographers. Have been enjoying myself this block. Anyway, I still haven't discover my nice food for AMKCH. Damn, tmr last day... Better try the legendary fishball noodle tomorrow.
Sigh... Been hearing alot of complains about CST. Actually, I really like her. She very nice... And I think she technique is good. Anyway, the reason to why she doesn't sign competency reports is because she's the SGH satellite floater. She covers whichever centre that's short-handed. She doesn't want to sabo the students. And also, she thinks she's too junior to sign.
Today, I damn sway... I overslept on the bus ride to work. Sigh... walked a freaking 15 mins to get to workplace. At fast pace somemore, and i was late... So paiseh...

Ok, after the disappearance. I'm back. I'm glad that I've entertained you people with that very interesting MRI picture. It's really not porn. Just that Mr Anatomy Leonardo Da Vinci drew a stretch of the missionary position of the INSIDES of the stuff. So yah, some guy decided to pick up the study and do a REAL imaging using the most hi-tech thingy out there now. So yah, MRI. I was looking up the word "penis" in www.x-ray2000.co.uk hoping to find the techniques involved in a "calvanosogram" (i can't spell the word for nuts!).
Anyway, first day at Ang Mo Kio Hospital was good. The main tube blew, so we did general in the fluoro room, which sucked. But as the good old saying goes, "Cannot swim say cannot swim, don't say the swimming trunks too big". But after some mind adjustments... I think i'm back on track. HAHA.
Well, the thing that I'm usually most excited about attachments are the food around the clinic/hospital. Not so much of collecting cases, sucking up to radiographers, fighting with other ppl for cases. Just the much awaited lunch break.
So here's the list
1. SGH - There's this wantan mee stall down Outram Road, 5 mins walk from SGH, wantan mee there is goooood. Just need to endure the sun. The duck noodle and kway chup at the Kopitiam Food Court is nice, but steep. The Bar Chor Mee is very edible. The housemen canteen is cheap and edible. The cafeteria is a waste of time, but Ng Hon Win likes to go there.
2. TTSH - Food Junction there sucks, but the Nonya stall is quite nice. Hear the Ban mian is good, never tried, no up to my standards.
3. AH - That's heaven. Alexandra Village Food Centre is GOOD! There's claypot laksa, the bak chor mee in the middle isle with the limping man is good! And there's the avocardo juice in the carpark-facing isle! BEST MAN! Rojak's good too. Of course, there's IKEA nearby.The canteen there is a freaking disgrace to the food industry. Have you eaten curded hor fun sause? If you're keen, go there... YEEEKS!
4. NUH - Sigh... Waste time... I think the Bryani would be nice, but it's always sold out by the time I go for lunch.
5. Bukit Merah Polyclinic - Wah! The Fish head noodle stall has a queue at any time of the day. Lunch waits could be up to 20 mins! But of course, it's freaking good. There's a very good fried dough sticks stall. With big red signboard one. Their butterfly is damn power. One of the fishball noodle stall is damn nice.
6. Geylang Polyclinic - Fish soup! ASK ANY of the staff working there. They'll give u directions. Claypot rice in the same coffee shop is damn good too. In the faraway hawker centre, there's another chze kar stall that the staff of DDR dept like to eat at. Food there is nice too.
7. Ang Mo Kio Hospital - Still looking around. Nothing looks good at the hawker, but i think the food in the coffee shops will be nicer bah...
Hope my food guide helps! Haha...
