Raudah's father sends us to Changi every morning.
cool ayye? save a lil bit of transport fee here.
thanks cik ! if it wasn't for you, i guess the three of us would have to wake up much earlier.


1st Day.
reached at around 7 15 in the morning.
got ourselves breakfast at 7-11 and ate outside the shop.
went up to the 6th floor to ward 36 ten minutes before 8.
so, as we ENTER, NONE of the nurses welcomed us.
they continued talking like nobody's business and yeah, i had to ask where's the nurse manager.
was asked to go into the tea room and wait for the sister.
raudah, being SO confident, showed us the tea room. hoho xD
stayed there for like 15mins or so, when one of the student nurses said that, that's not the tea room.
gaaaah. so we went all the way to the staff room and waited for 90mins (:
guess what that sister was doing? talking to nyp students, giving them orientation.
and us? she abandoned us.

nurse: okay so..what is your objective of coming ?
atikah: to gain knowledge and experience in nursing
nurse : *laughs* knowledge? *laughs again*

ass that nurse. then what's the purpose of going there ?
so yeah, we were told to walk around and see if any nurses needed help.
basically, that was that. boring ain't it?
so raudah,shidah and i decided to search for better work.
followed aunty choo- hahah . helped to serve patients.
served lunch i mean. cool . helped to pull the table to them, asking if its comfy or not.
only that was the fun part (:
rest of the time, we slacked alot.
not because we WANT to but we had nothing to do.

as you can see, first day was boring.
but lucky us, we bumped into Malek.
so yeah, spent the time talking to each other.
drifted away from boredom ahh .
and there's this patient, 30yrs old, male. haha
kept asking us to play Scrabble with him. and he kept on calling us kental.
bacen - so half an hour to 1, we played scrabble.
was so engrossed that we kena scolded cos we have yet to change. hahah
so got changed and continued playing scrabble.

went down and had trouble searching for way out.
so yeah, we went to the wrong exit :P
went all the way back and exit from the other side.
malek waited at the interchange and we went home together.
reached home. nana and family were there. bathed and ate.
and i slept. reminded nana and nani to wake me up at 5 30.
guess what they did? they kept on snoozing the alarm clock .
and i woke up an hour late. so bathed cepat2 and, made the roti kirai.

went inside the room and stayed there.
played uno with cousins.
got bored so we asked if we could go out of the room.
and we did. nyehahah . noisy noisy noisy.
the date was set. 16th march (:
people went home and i started washing the dishes.
used the computer and im done.

2nd Day.
i woke up late seh. nyehahah.
got ready and went for work (:
this time round, we really did search for work to do in the ward.
gave patients breakfast. some were still asleep.
then walked around helping patients. made friends with Kak Nurul (:

so yeah, today was much more fun then yesterday.
but still? sister pissed us off by saying-

atikah: nurse, you got anything for us to do?
nurse: what can i give you? i mean, i cannot be giving you guys paperwork to do.
atikah: no no, i mean, anything else to do ? we got nothing to do.
nurse: what you guys want me to give you? i mean, you can just go and observe what the nurses are doing. i can't possibly let u guys do hands on. you don't have the experience to do it.
and i don't know what ur objective of this attachment.
atikah: thats why its called attachment i mean, nurses are suppose to give us a task to do.
nurse: huh?
atikah: haish nevermind we go find our own work.

see how pathetic nurse manager are?
i mean, she really is useless. urgh-
at least the staff nurses are much more friendly.
i watched staff nurse and kak nurul doing the dressing.
it was cool, and was the simplest, according to staff nurse.
see? at least they know that we wanna gain knowledge.
and the staff nurse actually explain to me this n that.

went for break and continued work.
gave the patients lunch . and then just, slacked for awhile.
was really tired by then (:
interacted with atok who claimed that he's going to the airport.
confident benar itu atok. but never mind, patient per.
went home after duty. the three of us slept in the bus.
i once knocked my head while sleeping. paiseh :D

got home, slept till 7.
done.

3rd Day
the three of us slept inside the taxi as usual.
reached and we went up to the tea room and rest.
started duty early and gave breakfast to patients.
this particular patient is so fussy. wants to eat on bed, change of fruits, wanna rest her back while eating. sheeesh.

alright so today cik rohaya took over aunty choo.
managed to interact with her also (: but raudah and shidah were scared.
okay then we collected back all the food trays and did something else.
today was much better than previous days.
we did more work and interacted with the people working .
got ourselves used to the place =)

went for break early. shidah and i got waffles.
slacked ;watched tv for an hour before proceeding back in.
served patients their lunch (: most were happy .
visitors came in too, watching us doing duty.
they talked among themselves laa. but i heard "ni dorang nk buat keje gini kene pandai bual"
hahakz. cool. oh ya, i nearly gave this patient who's not supposed to eat , eat.

atikah: cik , makan cik (:
patient: makan? cik mane leh makan?
atikah: huh? asl?
patient: ni no food or no drinks. doctor kate tk boleh makan.
atikah: oh yaAllah. maaf cik ! terluper !

see, carelessness. i totally forgot to look at all the labels when giving food.
rested for awhile and collected the trays.
raudah did some paperwork which , was to erase erase erase. hehe
took some pictures in the room. then back to work !

did i mention about this particular grandpa?
well he was in the hospital since morning, walking around the ward.
abg hafiz accompanied him all the way, listening to the man babbles.
it was like 3 hours i think abg hafiz followed that man. hoho -
atikah : best bg jalan2?
abg hafiz: haha. *giggles* *shakes head*

nyeahhaa. then in the end he kena warded.
he had contused wound on this head. that made him a forgetful person?
he was warded and put on bed FOUR.
which, initially was occupied by this atok who kept on saying he was going to the airport.
hahah. kak nurul took care of that bed, again.
she was really having fun with all the different patients with different behaviors.
which always occurs at bed FOUR :)

granpa bed38 wanted to trim his nails.
i got a clipper and ask abg fido to do it.
abg fido: haha , tkde experience kepe ?
atikah: duh ! ni orang tue nye nail seh. kalau salah ketip?
then i walked away. and guess what?
he actually went into the toilet and helped another patient.
waited for nearly half an hour for abg fido to go to bed 38.
in the end, i approached him.
"abg, clipper maner?"
abg: eh oh ya. paiseh ah , luper.

interacted with more patients.
i tried the hypocount thing. tested for diabetes.
hahakz, fun ya noe.
shidah and raudah walked around je.
they did not try the hands-on stuff. hoho , ikot bontot atikahhh je.

got changed and went home. another fun part. hahah
the queue was long, and there were two entrance.
so we entered n found ourselves like, out of the queue.
