Importance of Identity

Today is my 4th day of tagging in Ortho. I woke up earlier today so I can review more patients. Not because I wanna do more... It's because I'm too slow in reviewing patients. It's a silent day for ortho ward today, there's just 2-3 referral cases in other wards. I only went to see a new born baby with query Erb's palsy and spent most of my time copying and writing my homework... YES! we do have homework though we are working. I'd to write out all the case and progress of all patients in ward and I'm going to get OA for my right metacarpal joints.

There's nothing much to do in ortho ward today, unlike Susan who was rushing here n there in the ward opposite of mine. While I was happily watching the clock to strike to 9pm, there's a new admission from A&E. An Indian lady sustained bilateral forearm fracture on a motor-vehicle accident. After reading her x-ray, 2 HOs and I approached her. She was apparently surrounded by a 'kampung' of relatives who are concerned on her condition.

Without further delay, I started to talk to her and asked her a few questions regarding how she get involved in the MVA. Then suddenly a lady (I supposed she's her mum) stop her from answering my questions. The 'mum' questioned me rudely:" Who are you? Why are you taking report? Who are you representing????"

My colleagues and I were shocked and staring at her. Why were these questions were questioned to us? We're wearing white coats and it's very obvious that who we are. Then I answered her:" I'm a doctor. Oh! Sorry, three of us are doctors. I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself." Then I reintroduce myself and continue with my clerking.

For my UKM juniors out there, please remember your PPD. I'm so sorry to my fellow lecturers who thought us how to be professional. Now I understand how important it is for me to remember to introduce myself. Well, after all, I still feel weird when people add the title in front of my name...

grills = zoo?

Today is my 3rd day of tagging in Orthopaedics ward. I could say Ortho ward is quite relaxing, compare to the medical and surgical which my other friends were there. While FKC and I were happily sitting in front of the counter copying our homework, there's a new case in Ward 4. Hence we follow the on call HOs to see the patient.

He's a prisoner, so there'l be a policeman looking after him. Finally I saw the real 'gari'. It's really SHINNY!! I wonder if they polish it everyday. Well, we were attending the case and the room was so so so so so hot! While I was doing pin-prick on him with an orange stick, the officer became shocked! because I was pricking him with something sharp... Well, I think the officer don't want him to sustain any injury and ended up both the officer and I will be on the newspaper for 'injuring' the prisoner.

After finish examining him, we went out and document our findings. Then there's a 'zoo-phenomena' whereby all the visitors stop by the room and start discussing bout the room with grill and the person inside... typical Malaysian which flood the ward by assuming my patient is an animal or alien... Well, what can I do? The officer didn't chase the 'zoo-visitors' away, I cant close the door of the room as it's not ventilated by even a small fan... I wouldn't want both the officer and my patient get suffocated. And the worst thing is, it's visiting time, you can't chase them out from the ward.... respect & dignity...

‘掺’冰 + 冰

冷鸳鸯,或俗称为‘掺冰’,是除了teh ais外,另一个我喜爱的饮品。悠记得我在过去三年的日子里,由于我常常习惯性的在楼下mamak档点teh ais 和roti planta而导致其员工一见到我就叫我roti planta;没看到我的日子,他会用roti planta来当我的代名词,询问我的朋友,怎么roti planta没下来喝茶?这种习惯让我在mamak档界闯出了一个小名堂。

而在这无聊的假期里,我常常与妹妹们到某家点心店吃夜宵。然而这次不是因为我又习惯性的叫了同样的饮品而让其员工留下深刻的印象,原因是因为。。。

话说有一晚天气实在是太热了,我们三姐妹结伴到该点心店喝冷水来消暑。我点了‘掺冰’,然而,那杯水不怎么冷,所以我另外向店小二A讨多一杯冰。由于我当时实在是太蠢了,一心想把冰块放入满满的杯里,结果,我不止把整张桌子都肮脏了,我还浪费了那一杯冰。好心的店小二A贴心的为我送上另一杯冰块。

过了一个星期,当我再光顾该店时,我同样点了‘掺冰’,而这时那位店小二A竟然问我要不要另外多一杯冰?我心想,这下糗暴了!过了一个星期,他竟然还记得我做的蠢事。。。没关系,我就假假办无辜啦!

又过了一个星期,同样的事情又发生。

到了今天,终于是另一位店小二B来招待我们。点了‘掺冰’后,我还打趣地跟我的小妹说:“今天我的那杯冰应该没有了,等下要再向他们讨一杯冰。”谁知,当店小二B端我们的饮料出来时,我与我的小妹笑得不能停。。。
店小二B竟然也多拿一杯冰给我。。。

天啊!大概他整间店的伙计都知道我喝‘掺冰’要另加一杯冰了。。。

月亮代表谁的心

你,仿佛是我的月亮。
偶尔,你进悄悄地踏入我的天空,待夜深人静时才露出你的光芒。
偶尔,我发现了你静悄悄的背影,虽然太阳掩盖了你的光芒,但我依然看见你。
偶尔,你躲在云层中,仿佛像躲在人群中默默地守候着我。
偶尔,我想见你时,你却消失得无影无踪。

也许,是你让月亮忽隐忽现,
也许,是你让我迷恋着月亮,
也许,月亮代表了你的心。

不知是谁说‘月亮代表我的心’
可你让我觉得‘月亮代表你的心’
月亮啊月亮,到底你代表谁的心?

太阳的谢幕礼

太阳小姐在谢幕前鞠了一躬,躲在身后的我偶然看见它迷人的裙底春光。
不知有多少人被它迷惑,变成它的裙下之臣。。。

原来淑君是偷窥狂!哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈!

我的眼里只看得见你

他问她:为何你就是不选我?
她对他说:因为我看不见你。
他又问道:你眼睛好好的,怎么会看不见我?
她回答道:因为我只看见它。。。
他楚楚可怜的又问:你是怎样办到的?
她缓缓地叹了口气,若有所思地说:我也不知道。。。
眼前明明就有那么多东西,为何我的眼里只看得见你?

让我用科学的角度来告诉你,只要你拥有一架DSLR相机,把aperture调低,shutter速度调高,那么就会有像以下图片的效果 - 只看得清‘青色娃娃’(好像是周瑜)!我也不知道有没有说错,毕竟我不会玩相机。。。
(相片摘自宇军上海之旅的album)

不久后,他送了她一架DSLR相机,盼望有一天她能看清他的心意。
她望着那架相机,淡淡的说道:众里寻他千百度,蓦然回首,那人却在灯火阑珊处。
他听了二话不说的像飞蛾扑火般,飞奔到蜡烛地下。
结果,他就这样被烧死了。。。



哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈!好无聊啊!

女性专用包厢

不知多久没在吉隆坡市区里乘搭公共交通工具了,而这一次,我为了要往南马出发而必须重拾这个技能。不久前某地铁公司不知为何的推广女性专用包厢,很多人都有很多不同的看法,而这次我终于能亲生体验到身为女性的特权!

上了女性专用包厢的我像大乡里入城般东张西望,果然没有男乘客啊!正当我心想:“哇!好听话的使用者啊!”,我忽然看见两位高大威猛的男士身穿浅蓝色上衣,深蓝色长裤站在门闸的旁边,十足个门神!原来他们是地铁公司的职员。他们很尽责,并很有礼貌的请那些误上女性专用包厢的男士们离开。然而,我很好奇的是,为何他们不一开始就禁止男士踏入包厢,为何要等到男士们坐下来了才请他们离开?好奇怪啊!

其实这女性专用包厢是有它的好处的,起码女性不必担心在地铁里会被滋扰或被非礼。此外,当女性专用包厢满了,我们女生还可到其他包厢里去挤,不必担心没位子!男士们就暂且发挥你们的礼让精神吧!
