A Night In Mount E...

A Night In Mount E...

Oh.. didnt know that its been about 9 days since i last type anything here...
oh well, tonight is another night shift for me. Counting, this is my 5th time...

Looking back, I have already been here for about half a year already. This is the longest time i have served a company so far consecutively... And to think in 2 months time, off i will go to embark my next life journey...

Same old phrase, time really pass by very fast. I recently heard that once a person get past his/her 20 year old mark. Time would somehow past by very fast. In a blink of an eye, he/she would turn 30 just like that. By then, i believe, many would think back and see what have they really did for the past decade.. and do they need to do anything more or less in their lives...

This suddenly came to mind. I have been waiting for about 3 weeks for my results in the LKC interview. Two nights ago, i have heard from one friend that he got it and he received the call one week after the interview. That is very fast compared to the 2 weeks that the prof was saying it would take. Anyway, from him, I find out that at least 3 have got the scholarship. Places have already been taken up, and now all i can hope is that my chance is still there for the taking.. well at least , one of the other scholarship if i fail in this.. .. Just have to wait and see...

To be Angry or sad???

To feel Angry or to Sad?

Another irony situation.... Angry... when i and my colleagues faced nasty, demanding customers who insists on having their way.... Today, we had one patient who had to come in for a few hours for a blood transfusion. The patient husband came to do admission early, so as to ease the patient's waiting time. However, again, this is another customer who wants Single and insists on a private room. GOsh.. initially he was served by one other staff, who have told him that there's no guarantee that there will be single room though patient will only come in a few hours later. Everything said was not of any use. All he wanted is Single.. single .. single... nothing but a private room... When it was assigned a 2 beded for him, he refused to accept it. By then, i had to handle him as my staff was on lunch. that really boiled me up no matter how i tell him that its totally full. Frustrated... but luckily, my staff came back and i let him handle, which is more appropriate. In the end, we had to convert a 2beded into a single... Darn man... Little did i expect, that i would be the one to serve them again when the patient is to be discharge later in the evening... Some signatures had to be taken from the patient and my billing staff told me to help him before he went off duty. Gosh... not much of a choice, I had to bring the documents up to the ward. Entering the room, when i saw the patient lying in the bed.. weak and pale... skinny as if lack of food. That moment, my heart gave in... seeing her condition, I felt sad for her.. as well as her husband.. it had to be a tough time for both going thru this kinda situation. At times thinking back, sometime i feel patients or family members are demanding, because of the situation they are in that caused them to react this way. This husband no matter how nasty he is... at least he's a good husband ... being able to stand hand in hand with her to fight against the illness... This is really what one says... having both sides of a story... For that, i respect him....

3rd round Interview

3rd round Interview

I never know an interview would be like that.. but it really happened. SMU is indeed different. The interview is not like those typically one to one interview where questions are asked so directly.

this is indeed so different.. and the prof after the interview still mention not to let it out on how the interview is being held including in the net or blog. he said a similar incident happened before in previous year.

So i better nt let anything out first.. till everything is over..

Now.. its when will get the final call to say if im accept.. or waiting list.. or accepted for other scholarship... or i dont get anything at all...

GOD knows man....
