new.

it's 2010!

and i'm starting the new year
with a new job,
and new surroundings,
and new life,
meeting new patients/nurses/specialists/doctors.


though it's scary,
(coz i feel as if i don't remember anything
i studied in med school just a few months back)
but,
i must say,
part of me is actually looking forward to this new challenge in life.


i never really made it a point
to make new resolutions whenever a new year comes up.
coz i know myself too well,
and know that i probably wouldnt have
set about achieving the resolutions.

but this year,
i feel like making resolutions.


1- i think it's about time that i stop waking up in the morning and thinking: 
" oh crap! why do i hav to go to the hospital??
whywhywhy did i ever choose this profession??"
instead.. it's time to be thinking:
" yes, i'm a houseman now,
the slave at the bottom of the food chain all over again!
but, enough of self-pity and complaining,
suck it up and say BRING IT ON!!" 

2- it' time to change my ways of dressing too.
hahaha.
from now on, only really really formal clothes to the hospital,
to avoid scenarios like this:

i was having nite posting
at mlake hospital,
and being me,

i wore my comfortable green sneakers to the ward.
( i so do not see the point in wearing heels when ur job is to stand around for literally the whole day! )

so i went to a makcik's bed
and started flipping through her file
while making small talk with her.
after establishing a rapport with her,
i started to examine her.
she kept looking at my feet,
and smiling to herself.
i just smiled back at her,
knowing that the topic of my shoes would certainly come into our conversation soon.
as if reading my mind,
she said  "dokter, meriah la kasot dokter! hehehe"
i just laughed and said  "ala makcik, kasot ni selesa, makcik. sebab tu saya pakai. lagipon skarang ni malam makcik. hehehe"

and also another time,
i was attending to a young guy.
and he suddenly asked me: "eh, korang ni dulu blaja kat overseas ke?"

i said : "a'ah la. nape eh?"
then he said "blaja kat mane?"
i said: "india. nape eh?"
then he started laughing,
and said: "oooo.. patot le... aku tengok ko ni pakai seluar kaler pink. kawan ko kat situ pulak pakai seluar warna ungu! "
(sigh.. i just dunno why colourful clothing is such a big deal..)


3- another thing i am gonna try to do is
actually use the name that was given to me,
instead of using FRUBETTO or FRU.
i just have gotten so used to people
calling me "weh, FRU" that
sometimes i don't even repond when people call me "wani".

so no more wearing nametags like this to the hospital:

 

well.

since resolutions are a new thing for me,

i guess 3 is enuff.

let's hope i actually do sumthing to achieve them!

and to all my friends,

OLDIBESH in our quest of becoming the slaves of the hospital!!

we can do this la, people!

( i hope i can!)

lastly,

may this year be more prodcutive and fruitful than the last.

bubbye dearest blog..

(seeing as to my extreme busy-ness after this,

i do not know when i will be able to post anything after this!)
