good evening world.
today was a rather..mmm i would'nt put it as tiring but it was just chaotic.
It was'nt exactly the busiest day i've had at work but it was chaotic.
Too many admissions, too little staff. Or at least, ICU trained staff.
And to top it off, i took a newly ventilated patient today. Although i was precepted by my senior.
It was still darn messy!
Did resuscitation for a good full 1 hour.
Somethings just have to be learnt the hard way, through mistakes you make. And i guess i'm pretty immune to the words that come out of people's mouth, well at least those who are known to be naggy by nature. I'm learning to take things positively and not take to heart when you know that sometimes you're really trying to get something done right, but it turns out to be the wrong way? And there you have it, you get reprimanded for making a mistake. And like i've said, in there, there is no room for mistakes. Which makes things alot more stressful but like the better friends at work tell me; to just ignore it and to not take it to heart. Well, i guess being able to do so takes practice.
Besides that, am missing nesh so so much, although we hung out yesterday together with his friends. Our lifestyles have changed with him having 2 rugby teams and school and me myself with work..so much so that we only meet once a week nowadays. Unless i'm at his place then it'll be for 2-3 consecutive days. But its just life, and i guess it makes me stronger during the NS phase. Which i'll have to go through AGAIN. urggh. Lol.
Other than that, have been trying very hard to dilligently save 500 dollars a month for my degree next year. I'm still deciding between the private degrees offered from La Trobe, Griffith or Sunderland. My initial plan was the one from NUS, but considering the fact that its going to be a full time degree for 3 years and most of the things you're learning is going to be repeated, i might as well take up the 2 year part time degrees which require 1 year of experience instead.
I think i'm going to take a nap right now, have'nt had enough sleep the past few days. :(
impulsively and honestly,
yours truly
