DoubtFirst and foremost, I had my very first hospital attachment. NUH, Ward 41, I shall remember. It's an introduction to my (possible) job in future. Within those 3 weeks, I've learnt and got numerous hands-on with so many tasks and skills, met with patients with various cases, learnt new terms and equipments, being a (sympathetic) listener, sharing the patients' and/or their relatives' anguish, had fun (unexpectedly!) learning... I received plenty of encouragements from the patients, that becoming what I'm learning is the best job, the best endeavour and it takes a great deal of heart to care for complete strangers. Their words incentivize me- but am I ready for this?
Secondly, I met up with 2 people I haven't hung out with for an awfully long time- Priscilla and Shilei! Both of them share the same passion as I have- photography; it was great bringing our cameras out and taking random shots of one another/together! It was even better catching up with each other over a meal- laughing, gossiping and recollecting our secondary school days.
I love you both! Meet up again soon, alright? Thirdly, my 2 dearest friends- Yeun and Kit! I celebrated my (post) birthday with them on 4th September and had our "tradition" of treating each other to meals on our birthdays. So yes, I treated them! I love them both to death despite living entirely different lives and meet up infrequently. Oh and HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, KIT! You're finally the same age as Yeun and I! :D
Neoprints make us feel like 14 again.Last but not least, I miss the 3 J's- Jazreel, Joyce and Jasmine. Very much.

So life these couple of days had (and has!) been work, work, WORK. I barely have time to even interact with my family. I still have a social life though, if you're wondering. I take day(s) off to go out with my friends. Oh, Christine and I meet up to go home together when we finish work at the same time; which is good so we can have each other to talk/complain to on the way! Anyway, working can distant my thoughts/troubles sometimes, especially when being a barista. And can you believe I find wiping cutleries (at work) can be therapeutic from time to time? Of course I do get weary and pooped with work at times- who doesn't?
In fact, a fraction of the cause of being (mentally) fatigue is due to the hiccups I'm encountering: family, school and you. Well, just about everything. Period.
Great, it's almost 3am now. Just realised I took such a long time to type this entry. And also, I just fathomed I have to get up early to work full shift tomorrow. My body clock is wrecked.
