went to vivocity after school with nana and zannah.

we agreed to watch HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3: SENIOR YEAR together with annabel somewhere this week...

actually i didnt expect it to be today but... nevertheless.

you know what?

the movie is fantastic!

im so in love with troy bolton now.... X))

he's hot. :D

the ryan evans's fine as well. :P

but i still prefer troy......... hahahs.

but apparently i called my mum after school (as usual) to tell her that i will be watching this movie with nana and zannah @ vivocity (which is quite near my house), she's like very pissed off that i dont go home straight after school..

then i assured her that i will go home right after the movie but she dont seemed quite happy about it. :(

i dont know what to do...

the thing is that i've never watch movies with my friends except twice; once @ january with rachel and gang to watch JUNO also @ vivocity and the second time is just now...

ahhhh. i just dont know what to say.

but luckily she never nagged @ me when i reached home..

she just asked if i had taken my dinner and stuff.

but actually it's good to have a person like her to care for you...

i mustn't be 身在福中不知福 (which means that i should acknowledge my happiness when i have it now)..

yup.. but after the movie we camwhored a lil'... more pictures to come, so stay tuned! :D

with chad and taylor.. and with both of us posing.. >.<

with sharpay and ryan...

snatching over the one and only guy.. >.<

im with TROY!!! X))

ooh! im one of them!!! ^.^

the last picture was the one that the board almost fell to the floor when i tried to take a photo with it...we were laughing like mad then there's like quite a number of people looking @ us as if we are some aliens or what.... hahas. had a fun time though. :)

i noticed that i will be a lil' busy from now onwards.

the upcoming events:
~the Green Bazaar (29-31 oct)- help take care of HS games booth on 31 oct from 1-3pm
~parents' forum (15 nov from 9.30am-12.30pm)- helper but i dont know what to do. . .
~RED camp (19-21 nov)- helper but for HS not as a SL... :(
~Standard Chartered Marathon (7 dec)- first aid volunteer from 9pm (on 6 dec) to noon.
~Just Party (not confirmed)- a HS-only party. :D
~bonding camp (2D1N- ?Jan)- a camp just for yr 1 & 2 HS delegates
~Open House (8, 9, 10 Jan)- almost all HS students are involved.
~FOC 09/10 (7, 8, 9 Apr)- HS delegates are involved.

AND my birthday falls on the 1st day of FOC!!!! OMG.
i cant celebrate. :(
our advisors for HS society told us to publicize Dip in Optometry (OPT) during the Open House.
it's a new course in Apr 2009.
he said according to the standard in SP, the COP of optometry is around 12.
so most probably, our COP of OPT is AROUND 14.
and also, ALL students from OPT are invited to FOC because there's like only 40 students.

AHHH. more projects are coming up and not enough time!!! now it's already the end of week 2. and @ week 7 we will have our NSL practical test. 35%!!! so much. :(
im scared.
AAP, CMBio and PHARM are getting harder by the day.
i hate NR1!!! it's like so. . . . -.-'''
but luckily there's always NSL... ^.^
anyway enough of my rahh-ing, tomorrow's my mum's birthday..

HAPPY 45TH BIRTHDAY, MUM!!!

okay. my head almost dropped when i was in the car which my father sent me home because i was sleeping. hahas.

i think i should go sleep now. :)

woah, just came back from vivocity..
went to watch "tropic thunder" with my parents.
it's M18 and surprisingly, im able to watch... O.O
hahas. this movie's nothing much actually; it's not nudity or whatsoever, but it's just violence and some coarse language and it's a comedy.
so i just dont understand why they classify this movie as M18.
anyway i was buying the tickets and i asked the person to confirm if this movie is M18 and guess what she said? "yes, is there anyone not above 18?"
ooh, i didnt know she treated me as above 18.

do i look old that they treat me the age that im not? >.<

anyway while waiting for my parents to fetch me from school to vivocity, 2 girls approached me to ask if they are able to get a picture of me because they are collecting 200 faces for something that they didnt really mention when one of them explain to me.
all she said was that she assured me that she wouldnt vandalise or misuse my photo..
but never mind im happy that she said i look good in her photo.
(it's such a long time since anyone even say that i look good)
probably it's her camera that makes any person look good.
but im afraid that because her camera is so good (those pro Canon camera) that it can catch whatever it's on my face. =X
LOL.

introduction -.-

i feel like introducing my course to all of you out there...should i?

hahas. im currently looking for something to blog about..

yeap. maybe i should. okay guys, erm this may be a long post so be prepared yeah? :)

okay. as you all know, im in ngee ann poly health sciences (nursing), year 1.

actually you may ask why such a name, might as well say "nursing" just like nanyang poly, well, we are more into the research nursing, but theirs is more into the nursing nursing.

we have a variety of modules from nursing skills to life sciences to psychology to research and also to marketing. yes, marketing.

there is a module called creativity & innovative thinking skills (CITS), yes this is the one. you basically create any item but if it's related to healthcare, you will be awarded bonus points.

this module is taught @ year 1.1 (1st semester for year 1).

then you will also have this module called psychology & sociology 1 (PAS1) which is you know, psychology..you think @ the patient's point of view. then you can try to counsel them or something.

next, you will have this module called microbiology & infection control (MIC). this module allows you to 'make friends' with the very common bacteria and viruses names like E. Coli, MRSA, AIDS, Hepatitis, etc.

of course, you will learn about the anatomy and physiology of our bodies, which is just called anatomy & physiology (AAP1)(duh.) you learn EVERYTHING inside your body, from the integumentary system all the way to the organs and stuffs like (the guys would love it so much) reproductive system.. -.-'''

nursing skills laboratory (NSL1.1 & NSL 1.2). i simply love this module. you will really enjoy during these lessons because you do what a nurse do in the wards..like IV (the drip thing on your hand for liquid to flow into your blood vessels? yes. that's IV.) removal, bandage, oxygen therapy, taking blood pressure manually with that sphygomanometer (you pump up to a certain level then you release it slowly until you hear a sound then until you hear no more..), donning the PPE, etc.

then @ year 1.2, you will finally learn something to do with medicine which is pharmacology 1 (PHARM1). it's..of course something to do with medicine...the 5 rights like right patient, right drug, right dosage, right time & right route, all these stuffs.

then, nursing research 1 (NR1). this module is important, according to my lecturers. you will be introduced to research methodology and nursing research process. but i dont know what's this. >.<

finally year 2. ngee ann poly said our course doesnt need laptops because we will have PDAs. 0.0 yes. it will have a medical dictionary, disease & treatment guide or something, translator (even from dialect-eng ^.^), internet (of course) and other functions that a PDA has except for camera & phone functions...

okay. back to the topic, year 2 will have modules from nursing science 1- nursing science 4 (NS1-NS4). this is where you will have to recap those you have learned so far and consolidate the knowledge in caring for the patients with these diseases and disorders.

next, you will have pharmacology 2(PHARM2) with PHARM1 as a pre-requisite and you will learn how to classify the drug according to the disorder or disease the patient has.

NS 4 is interesting. you get to come in contact with infants; the care and stuffs.

another module that needs pre-requisite is psychology & sociology 2 (PAS2). it's almost the same as PAS1 but will be slightly different.

subsequently, when you proceed to year 3, you will have research project, life sciences elective which you will get to choose either clinical trials or drug discovery and also nursing management- you will get to be a leader! ^.^

@ year 3.2, you will be having your attachment for the whole semester which is what we call PRCP- pre-registration consolidation practice, before you can really be a registered nurse.

not to mention, we have NSL lessons and attachments every semester. yup.

anyway, with this diploma in nursing, you can simply CHOOSE any job you want and this is serious about that.

yeap. that's all about my course in ngee ann. hope to see those interested parties! :P

i noticed im so slow...i mean my posts.
i started @ dec 2006 and now, then my 100th post. >.<
a hundredth only.
only a word to describe me: slowpok.
wahahahas..

okay, okay. im stupid.
anyway, i officially announce that im sick.
you can hear it from my voice BUT only those who really talked to me will then realise.
that's because there's a lot of insensitive people around, who just care about themselves.
am i right?

i want to watch movies but i noticed that there isn't a nice movie except HSM III...
any suggestions?
annabel said she booked me for HSM III with zannah and fariana..
then my mum has this 1-for-1 promotion from GV because she's a member and this month is her birthday. so i need another movie for me to watch...
AND I CANT WAIT FOR 25TH TO COME SO I CAN HAVE MY PAY!!!!!! o.0
ooh. i cant wait, i cant wait, i cant wait....
hahahahahahahahahahs.

yeah baby, im crazy!!
so dont mess around with me... hahas. just kidding. :X

anyway tag me for any suggestions you have, k? THANKS ALOT! :D

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOLENE! :D

another year older already, be happy always k? :)

i'm so not used to the 'wake up early' days...

ahhh.

feel so tired everyday and worst of all, i go home late @ 6 on mondays and odd weeks, i go home @ 8.30pm because of cca.

but no choice, cca is a must.

anyway should i get a sport?

i feel like getting one so i can represent NP in those competitons and increase the number of my trophies because i miss those days when i represent BBSS in badminton tournaments. :(

oh ya. just bought a bear from build-a-bear workshop @ suntec for my mum's birthday on this coming 25th and on 5th oct, my dad's birthday which is on the 15th, i bought a Liverpool FC t-shirt from Adidas and treated him to Fish & Co...

spent around $200 for their birthday presents and meal.. and i think i will treat my mum Sizzler, maybe? oh my.

i wonder what my birthday presents are..

i doubt i will get two...

but nonetheless, i just hope they are happy... :)

^its birth certificate XP
^in doctor's scrubs suit. cute? :)

i got posted to ward 57, surgical, @ sgh!!!
i'm so happy!!!
annabel was like gloating over zannah's unfortunate posting to a yet another medical ward in sgh.
but too bad, both of zannah's and my attachment falls between Christmas and we can't enjoy Christmas happily... :(
and lucky annabel and fariana... both are the 1st batch and they get to celebrate Christmas freely...i'm in the freaking 2nd batch again.
so boring. 2 weeks of break then 2 weeks of attachment then 1 week of break.

why can't i just be in the 1st batch like before i changed?
because i handed in the photocopy of the agreement of my bond with sgh then i changed from nuh to sgh, from 1st batch to 2nd batch. :(
*sigh*
but i'm glad that i'm in surgical ward..
surgical = no parameters!!!! (i'm not too sure about it, this is according to annabel.) ^^

i chose netball over badminton for S&W!!!!
omg.
just because i couldn't get slots in badminton because badminton is just too popular.
i reached the atrium @ 0745 and thinking that it will still be early, walked to lt 26 happily with zannah. when i reached lt 26, lots of people were there getting a tag for each sport and i freaking got netball as my choice.
i wanted softball but zannah told me to take netball instead so i just follow her foolishly. >.<
i was so indecisive because there were only softball, netball, swimming/life-saving, soccer and dancesport left.
so what to choose?
*sigh*
i thought tennis was available but too bad, i was late. :( :(

anyway, aap lecture totally rocks because dr ronnie is the one teaching. XD
his lectures are easy to understand and interesting by saying things that will make us laugh aloud. but though i still don't quite understand the neurons and stuffs but never mind, i think with dr ronnie teaching us, i think this will be a motivation for me. :)

then, we had our 1hr break @ canteen 1 and we walked back to the same lecture room where we had our aap lectures just now.
it was CMBio which is Cell & Molecular Biology in short, and our lecturer is mr rashid.
he's fine, but he acts a bit sissy so his lectures will be interesing for us to focus on this module, maybe?
you know the way of swinging your wrist in a way that sissy does?
he does that often in his lectures... it's like -.-'''

hahas. and so yup, that ends my wednesday. tiring. X))

ps. it's gonna be a very post, so those who can't read on, please look elsewhere. :)

first day of school is tiring because my brain is still in holiday mode.
but it feels so great to see my beloved again!!! :D

anyway, had 2hrs of nsl practical lessons first thing in the morning and our lecturer is ms chua wee khim.
the first impression of her is not that good maybe because we are new to her and she doesn't teach year 1s until this semester.
but she's good in a way that we can learn well under her.
she said she's straightforward but jessica thought she's sarcastic. hmmm.
anyway we chatted about our attachments, some good and some bad. (but i'm too lazy to type it all out. >.<)
then we had our first break and we went to megabites but it appeared that after 7 weeks of non-megabites-ing, people rushed there to have their lunch taken.
so it was bad luck for us not to have any seats there..
so we agreed to have our lunch @ the canteen opposite megabites instead.
it was also crowded but after 10 minutes or so, we found 8 seats and can finally sit down to eat peacefully..

next, we had FON lectures @ lt 50 and unfortunately, our lecturer is ms liang biling.
honestly, i don't like her.
she talks as if she's in tutorials.
it was so damn slow. she took 30 minutes for a slide. imagine?
omg.
it was so boring and i wanted to sleep but she called my name to answer her question.
and guess how many times she did that? 3.
she was asking some questions and it appeared that no one will answer then she called my name.
then the last time, i was sure that she was looking @ annabel but she called my name instead. she then said, " sorry adele, i can only remember your name."
>_<
i was so embarrassed to see the whole of my lecture group looking @ me as if i'm a freak or something........
but luckily lecture ended fast enough though it was after 2hrs of it.
aap practical was next but i'm so sad that dr may is not the one teaching us...it's dr myat.
i actually had difficulty listening to his explanation of the chapter because we haven't had our lectures yet.
so those notes that he gave were actually greek to me. >.<
but anyway, his notes were as detailed as we wanted to have, so... lucky. :)

after that, we dragged ourselves to blk 56 for our NR1 (nursing research) tutorials and we had ms jayanthi as our lecturer.
it's boring, seriously.
but she said this module is very important because this is the pre-requisite for NR2 in year 2 and then NR2 as a pre-requisite for research project in year 3.
so, in short, without NR1, you cannot proceed to NR2 and subsequently, research project.
*sigh*
so meanwhile, we must perservere. >.<

then @ 6.30, i went to lt 73A for my cca, korean club.
it's great to see them again! :)
anyway, the recruitment for the committee members was on the 15th of september (1st day of my attachment) so i didn't manage to go. :(
then this girl, whom i shall not name but also in nursing, came to me to tell me that she's in the committee as a secretary.
it goes like this," hey adele, i'm secretary in kcc you know?"
my 1st reaction was like so?
why must you be so arrogant?
you get the chance but i don't so you are satisfied right? idiot.
but i just feel a bit weird sitting in the lecture theatre with loretta because i feel a kind of loneliness when i'm not sitting @ the committee area.

ahhh. never mind. i hope i can get in next year. there will always be a chance for me right? :)

a new semester starting tomorrow, probably new friends coming to join me in my class.
haiz.
time to make some more new friends.
i just hate the feeling of making friends..
it kinda makes you feels.....weird.
who knows these people can't be trusted?
i know i can't judge a book by its cover..
but i just don't know.
i wonder if they are gonna be like that tail in my class?
oh no, i hope not.
it'll be disatrous....

anyway, off i go packing my things for tomorrow...
see ya everyone. :)
ps. it's gonna be a long day.

i went to mdm timah's house yesterday with jiaxuan..
she's our patient in our cubicle for the past 3 weeks then she invited us to her house on hari raya but i couldn't because i felt sick...
apparently i feel that her house is jinxed for me.
i felt like vomitting whenever i say i want to go to her house. O_O
i was feeling exceptionally hot when we walked to her house (thinking that it's near the mrt station, so not neccessary to spend money on bus fare) and the weather is very hot so jiaxuan though it was normal..
then later in her house i felt cold.
i knew something was wrong with me...but i didn't bother because i agreed to have another outing with them...
then i got a 'scolding' from jiaxuan saying that i should be staying at home to rest instead of going to vivocity with them.
then i really thought about it when i took the train to jurong east.
i took the bus home in the end because i realised school is starting soon and i cannot afford to get sick.
but my mum didn't know about it when she called me to remind me to call her what time i'm going home.
i planned to give her a surprise....
when i reached home, i went to check my temperature.
and guess what?
my temperature's hot enough to cook my brains...
nah, okies. just exaggerating.
it's 39.4°C...
scared my mum out of her wits.. >.<
i knew i was hot but didn't expected it to be so hot.
then i can only rest at home and sleep...
actually the best part when sick is that you can just sleep on your bed and do nothing. really.
that's what happened to me.
whatever i want, my mum would get it for me.
anyway, just a few words to say..
"mums are the best in the world"
don't you think so? :)

by the way, my fever has subsided to 37.2°C so i'm back to normal again.
so i'll be back on monday preparing for school.
till then, bye. :)

just came back from chalet.
tired.
it was fun, though. :)
i slept @ 4.15am because we all went to watch DVDs in the house.
wolf creek and number 23 (which but we couldn't take it and finally slept).
it was quite scary to watch these 2 movies @ this time.
because my senior was talking about ghost stories earlier.
but luckily these 2 movies were only thrillers and wolf creek's a gory film so we could see all the blood and stuffs.
i'd still remembered one scene from it when the hunter hacked off his victim's fingers then you see the blood oozing out. O.O
hahas. sorry for those not into these gory movies, that's why this movie's M18. ^.^

anyway, we had bbq but the food is really not enough so we had to go a lil' hungry... >.<>.< maybe im just being arrogant. lol. but compared to Costa Sands or Aranda (both @ pasir ris), i'd sill prefer Chevron's. :) anyway, show you some photos to see how nice Chevron's is. ^.^

^ woots. LCD. :)
^ the 2nd level.


^ the shared swimming pool.

yup. so that ends my 2D1N chalet by HS delegates. :)

ps. i want more! :D

chalet later, i can't wait!!! :D
woohoo!!!!
yup. i'll go get prepared for chalet later. :)
updates about chalet on next post. :) :)

mum: wrong.
me: then?
mum: john little.


@ 10.15pm

me: yes, correct.

me: then what's john's son called?
mum: john little.
me: wrong.
mum: no?
me: it's johnson.

-.-
-.-
lame enough to let only yourself to laugh.

yes, the question asked @ 10pm was from my mum.
then i asked her the question @ 10.15pm.
then she was like -.- ...
hahas. we were laughing like mad. >.<
anyway, just being so random that my brain's gone rusty.
LOL.

anyway, i found another cat which looks like my baobei.
show you a video to see how cute it is. :)

i feel so sianz after attachment.
attachment really means attachment.
i mean i feel attached to the ward already. >.<
anyway, i received more photos from jasmine!!! but still not enough... :(

the cameraman for the previous photo is bryant..

now, it's the timer. >.<

with hazel, our dear senior fr NP who graduated on apr '08..

the 4 crazy ones with our senior.

oh ya. not forgetting our patient, mdm ong @ bed 28. she's cute. :)

tomorrow's the last day of attachment...
honestly, i want to stay...
it's been 3 weeks and i've grown to like this place..
i will miss them like Jasline, Lilibeth, Hazel, Angelita, etc.
they are so fun!!!!!
it's not hard to actually work with them all....
haiz.
getting apart is the most unbearable thing to do.
but never mind, i can still visit them if i have the time.
maybe i should go with kerr xing, jasmine, jiaxuan, wai and bryant.
i hope they will still remember us...

we took a picture with jasline, but only 1 is available because others were in jasmine's phone.

apparently jasline said she's too small in this picture... >.<
pretty? :P
