Assertiveness

On Wednesday, we learned assertiveness behaviour in our professional development class. Coming from Asian background...we are trainned to be passive and submissive to everyone who is in authority.

Now, how to say NO to your boss or senior colleague or even your Mother IN Law? hehehe... i find that class very meaningful especially for me because i can see me being submissive and passive when i start my nursing career.

I had a great experience ..such as conflict with MIL ...my mother in law's background is she perceive that she is always right about everything. She won't accept my ideas or ways of doing things... or confrontation or criticism.
Is hard for me..because... I really do not wish to creat wars in the family...especially Ryan is in the house.

How I wish...my MIL understands english...so that i can express and explain to her clearly.
Seriously..if she understands english or i speak mandarin..i think things will be better.

Oh well... we really have to be assertive..as in..getting our needs met but without jeopardizing the relationship with whoever u r dealing with it.

no more smurf suit

I won't be wearing my baby blue colour (smurf's suit according to my pschy instructor) scrub or uniform to clinical this rotation. How sweet! We have to wear business casual apparel.

It was funny how my instructor tell us about the dresscode when one of the student asked him..

Intructor: About the dresscode, to me..it has to be the 3 B's rules...

Students: 3 B's?

Instructor: yes..no showing of boobies, buts and belly!

hehehe..trust me..the way he said it...cracks us up good eh...

He always came up a lot of good jokes...we felt very comfortable with him...he gave us no stress..and as long as we do our work and hand in on time..
we will sail through the course! :)

tiring week...

This week has been very tiring so far for me due to my long hours spent in college. I was up at 6 am every day...and reach college at 8 am... and stayed till 5 pm. Not that my class finished that late ..is just i am trying to adjust back to my crazy schedules process.

I used to stay in the library from 8 am till 10 pm..yea..basically library is my second home :)
This week...i could not do it..i am not used to it yet..but i am pretty sure by next week or 2..i will be able to switch it back.

So far, my first rotation of my 3rd semester is pretty easy for me.. I am dealing with mental health ppl..especially schizophrenia ppl.
I'll be visiting my clinical placement this Friday..and i am very excited and anxious at the same time.

Alot of ppl does not like mental health field..but i find it interesting. My instructor is a male instructor..and he has been a psych nurse for 23 years..and we love him! He is damn funny..and very unlike the normal nurses instructor.

I really respect him for what he has achieved and for what he is doing now.
He makes me want to further my studies in psychiatry field...maybe forensic!! hehehehehe
maybe..?

friendly gesture?

Guess what happened on Friday when Ryan started his first day of orientation at school?
He made lots of friends ...especially with this Jacob kid that is in his class.

Ryan already asked Jacob to come over to the house to play with him. Friendly gesture huh? Gosh..i dunno where he gets this idea...and so friendly.

When he got back from school..we were asking how was school and everything:

Me: So, Ryan..how's school? Did u make a lot of friends?

Ryan: 2 Jacobs...another Jacob..i like Jacob..we play playdoh..

Me: Wow, 2 Jacobs ..that's nice..

Ryan: Yea..Jacob coming to house and play with me...he said yes..

Me: Ohh? U asked Jacob to come over to your house and play?

Ryan: Yea..in 2 minutes...he is coming... (Ryan still does not know how the time works)

Me and Kit: LOL..(speaking to each other) wow..look at our son..very socialize...

Ryan: Ya...Unbelievable...


Me and Kit: LOL..hahhaha..we didn't know where and when he learn this word!

Back to school

Tomorrow will be officially first day of class for me and it starts at wee 8 in the morning. This means i have to get up at 5.45 am in order to get ready for everything and avoiding fighting washroom with Kit.

I am so lazy to study....hopefully my lazy worms will start to die off by the end of this week.

Ryan will be off till the 15th..so i am a little "peaceful" here..hehehe MIL is taking off days this week to watch Ryan for me.
Lucky me!

Anyhow, class will finish at 3 pm tomorrow..but i planned to stay at the library to study for my test and prepare for my up coming classes.

Yea...back to my "second home" routine..hehehe...i cannot study at home due to noises and distractions from tv and ryan playing.

over excited..

I got over excited yesterday about going back to school today plus Ryan's first day of full day at school. I did not sleep for the whole night yesterday. This morning i have to get up at 6 am...boy it was dreadful.
My eyes were hardly open...

I don't know why i am over excited...maybe because i was worried about Ryan's first day at school.
I need to pack 2 snacks and one lunch for him...and have to make sure he can differentiate between the snacks and lunch. Smart thing to do is..(being told by the teacher)..to pack snacks in the paper bag and lunch in the lunch box.

I gave Ryan some baby carrots, cherry tomatoes, and goldfish crackers for his snacks..and peanut butter sandwhich for his lunch...as well as 2 boxes of juices..for his twice snack times.

He made it! He survived the first day..and he made a lot of friends. He ate his snacks and lunch :)
I am a happy camper here :)
Praise the Lord!

As for me...boy i am very overwhelm with my studies stuff.. So stressful as in I have so much to prepare for next week's classes. I need to get all my homework done by sunday. I will be having a math test this wednesday...man i hate new semester..coz they make us review back our medication's dosage calculations..

I hate math!

I will be busy till beginning of December.
It will be an interesting semester this time..due to we get to do Phsychiatric Nursing...which everyone refer it to the darkness of Nursing program.

Shall find out the truth!

the Day has come

Yup the big day has come for my little one... is time for him to go for full day school. Yup he is starting tomorrow ...same day as i have to go for my orientation day.
Ryan and myself visited the school and the class room teacher yesterday. Mrs. F seems very nice and soft spoken type of teacher.
Ryan got excited when he sees the classroom filled with small chairs, tables, computers, kitchen look alike set in the midldle, board filled with alphabets...snack area...and computers.
I was very glad that Ryan is comfortable with his friends and teacher. I am no surprised that Ryan is the tallest among all the kids in his group..coz he is one year late to enroll in Junior Kindy due to he is January baby.

Thank God that he used to the environment due to he was there for the day care. The reason I enrolled him in Catholic school..is because the day care is in the school building. School time will be 9 am till 3.30 pm...but due to we have to go to work and school...we are sending him to before and after day care program.
Kit will be sending Ryan to day care at 7 am..and i will do my best to pick him up at 4 pm.
Poor Ryan has to get up early...it will be tough for everyone at start..but i pray that everyone can get through it easy and everything will go smoothly.

As for me...i am not ready to go back...i don't think my brain is as "sharp" as before...i need to refresh back my nursing skills...jeeze..the injections hahaha..hate that..
i will have to do one special injection called Z track injection... that injection is specially for mental health patients.
Boy..i just have to whoop my but real hard again this time.... back to slaving days again....1 more year to go..man..can't wait till next year...man ..i will be done!

over did it

Ryan has over played for the pass days..he had a blast on Saturday..and on Wednesday he went for a school trip..another full day for him.

Consequences of all those fun- SICK! Yup..he was down with cold yesterday nite and this morning a mild fever.
I was up all night looking after him..poor baby couldn't get any sleep due to stuffy nose. He didn't cry at all..instead forced himself to sleep. Such a good boy i have here..if for me..i definitely throw a fuss already!

He woke in the morning with 37.4 Celsius, a slight fever..i was worried at that time..due to his febrile seizure history. I kept his temp down with ice pack and tylenol fever.
THank God by 10 am..his fever is down..back to normal temp...and he didn't take his nap at all till about 2 pm.

I am like a zombie now..with a headache..my head felt so heavy and i felt like wanna throw up...
I have been feeling like this all day..but i still have to watch Ryan.
I didn't cook dinner for everyone except i cooked porridge for Ryan.
I am not in the position to cook dinner feast for everyone!

I need help myself too..i am waiting for KIt to come home now so that he can take over my place...
I need good nite sleep tonite..badly!

2 more weeks

Time really flies eh... I left 2 more weeks of break then I have to go back to my crazy schedule life.
I really miss my crazy life these 3 months break. My brain getting lazy and rusty too.
I just got some of my books and i started to look at it..boy..i think i am getting very very busy and crazy this coming semester.
I will be dealing Mental Health clients as well as medications field again.
I hope everything goes well.. This time I will not have any Biology stress ...but will have Nursing Professional Ethics stress instead.

What I am going to miss when September comes is Ryan and Kit... I am going miss spending quality time with them..esp my Ryan. Every fun always have to come to an end..
Ryan will be going to Junior Kindy as well...and he is starting full day school every other day too.
Is going to be tough for him..I just pray that he will be alright and able to adjust to the routine.
Importantly, he won't get sick this coming winter time...

Low Iron

My doctor has been telling me that my Iron level is low since April 2008. I tried taking Iron pill but didn't help me much due to it constipate me.
I tried nuts and spinach..but not enough..due to every month when my "aunty" come... i sure loose a lot!

Nowadays..i get tired easily..and at times..i felt like i wanna faint..So, today i started to continue my iron pills..and decided to take every other day to avoid constipation. Hope that helps..

Really... big size like me..still have low iron level..i am surprised here..

Ontario Science Centre

Last Saturday, we all went to Ontario science Center in Toronto. It was fun for Ryan.
It was fun and tiring for everyone...Ryan really had a blast that day..he really over did it that day..heehehe..
Till today, i am still feeling tired from all day walking on Saturday.

Promoted

Yup i got upgraded from G2 license to G license..wohooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I passed my freeway driving test..FINALLY!

Gosh i was so worried and scared for the whole month..i tell ya! Didn't really had good sleep for weeks.
U can tell by my "panda eyes"

Anyway, I am so very glad that everything is over now..and I am ready to go back to school now!

Thanks everyone for praying for me! MMMMMMMMMMMUAks

Thanks Facebook

What a great surprise.. Facebook.com has re-united me and my long lost friends..from primary school.
Facebook is really good...u can search anyone in the world..that u have lost contact and get back in touch.

Lenny and Susan...is great to get back in touch with u guys!

Aug 14th

This day is big for me...as this day is my highway driving test or freeway driving test they call it over here.

9.30 am is my test..and i am very nervous about it. I have not been driving for a year since I got my G2 license last year except for the driving lessons i got recently.
Its been rusty...and plus the test that i failed 3 weeks ago...gave me phobia.

If i fail this time..i have to re-do everything..from writing test to going through G1 again.
I hate the system here...why do they require 2 road driving test!
It is wasting time and money!

I left few weeks of break b4 i go back to school in Sept 5th.
Don't know what to expect here.... more challenging assignments to come...

Beijing 2008 Olympic Games

Today is the open ceremony of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. It started at 7 am over here in Canada Eastern time. Too bad, i only get to watch for about an hour and half due to Ryan wanted to watch his Treehouse program.

Don't get me wrong, Ryan let me watch the open ceremony..but it just that he was so restless and dunno what to do. I felt guilty and not comfortable at all. Is hard to be parent here coz all u think is the best for your child. SO, I finally gave in and let him have his tv programme.

I managed to watch the fireworks ceremony, the dance of paper creation, printing, compass, and history of confucious thingy.

Anyway, is different this time coz normally in Malaysia, i get to watch it during the nite time.
Kit and PIL didn't get to watch at all due to they have to go to work.
I wonder they will air it again?

The Chinese people really did it...it was really grand thing ceremony! Got to give them the credit!

Graduation...from Pre-school program

Ryan graduated from his pre-school program at the day care he went to. They made him a badge to wear, cupcakes, a certificate, picture with his teachers and a party!
Boy, i don't even get all that when i was his age. HE was pretty happy that day..showing off his badge!

Me and my boy

Me and my boy...these pictures taken on Sunday, my birthday. Yup this aunty has turned 30 years old.
Old and fat..hahahah.. sigh, dunno when i can loose weight.

Ryan is getting bigger and taller. He is getting sweet too. Every now and then, he will ask me how am i doing....coz i used to asked how is he doing. He even said ..Mommy..I love you... every now and then.
Everything is worth it when he said that huh? :)

Mild depression

Hey all... yuppers..it's been awhile i updated my blog. I was not busy with work or family or school...but mild depression.

Yea..long story short:-

I quited my job right after 2 weeks i have started. I don't know what i got myself into, depression i guess.
What I was depressed about? Boy, I am still looking for the right answer.

Long story become long story:-

Right before my break starts, I was so eager to look for summer job to help out the family a bit. I even got greedier, I signed up myself summer course at the same time.
Well, got this job with this company A, working as personal support worker, interview was held during May...then got the offer sometime in Victoria day. Did the orientation June 12th.
Started training on June 20th i believed..can't remember..anyway, the company was very unorganized company. I was not given anything ..like employee number( need that to get paid), user name and password to log in to check my client schedules..nothing.
They keep calling me saying that i miss my client ...which I was not aware that I have clients that day (can't check without password and username).
I was so stressed up!
It was my first, and it didn't go well. I was promised with clients living around my neighbourhood or within bus routes.
But they gave me somewhere without bus routes and some i have to transfer 3 busses.
I just can't work like this. I need to know my schedule ahead and plan my day. I have Ryan to take care in the morning..then send him to day care in the afternoon..then go to work..
But it didn't work well.

I was upset because this company wasted my time, i could have look for other jobs. Right now i can't because Summer is almost over.
Instead of earning extra income ...we ended up spending more..coz I have to keep Ryan's day care spot for September.
Right now, mon-fri we send Ryan to day care for $19 bucks/day.

I felt such a loser... and on top of everything..I failed my high-way test...meaning more money to spend.

Sigh, this year is not my year. I was so sad .upset...that i didn't even feel good to do anything.
I was home all day for the past month.

But the only good thing is Ryan is healthy and happy :)
I have re-booked my driving test...Aug 14th...really hope i pass this time.
Too much in my head...i cannot focus rite now..

My weakness, i want everything perfect...if i stumble some mistake...i got weak and lost.
boy..this is bad...when can i accept that nothing is perfect..

Guess what..I just turn 30...heheheh... no more twenties zone...
Yup! getting old...
I felt like i have not accomplish anything in my life yet...other than having myself a family.

chilly...

Is almost July now...and the weather is chilly..yesterday it was only 19 degrees..and today 17degrees ...what's up weather?

We planted tomatoes, long beans and some chili...i am worried about my veges with this cold weather.
I can't wait for my chilies ...yumieeeeee :)

Lost touch....

I have not been cooking since last September coz MIL took over the cooking...and now I have to do the cooking again, I am totally LOST!
Everyday, i have headache thinking what to cook for lunch and dinner. Boy, is not easy for mothers or fathers..to cook daily.

Crack my head daily..i have to plan my menu for days ahead.. I think it will get worst when i start working..coz i have to cook lunch and dinner at the same time.

Today, I made ribs with bean sauce and ginger, vegetable soup, fried tofu and prawns.
Tomorrow, I am going to bake the whole chicken with BBq sauce, and some vege..will plan tomorrow..

U see, my family they bring home food for lunch.. so i have to cook lunch for Ryan be4 he goes to day care, then bigger portion of dinner for 4 1/2 people and 3 person's lunch tomorrow.
So, u see why i got headache everyday.
Mind you, my MIL is picky too... if u don't cook right, she will be very sarcastic towards the food..say too oily, too salty...too much gravy.

not only i got rusty with the cooking...i got rusty handling the knives ...i have been cutting my fingers lately...u should see i had plaster all my fingers.
i am clumsy...i must say!

Webster's Fall

These pictures taken weeks ago when we went to Webster Falls in West Hamilton. It was our first time there. Ryan had a blast there...Look at him with the rock throwing action!
We had a great time there, although I was too chicken to hike around the rocks...ekkekeke..

still waiting...

I am still waiting to start my job. I went for my paid Orientation last Thursday... and got everything settled. They told me that they will call me today and give me the schedule..and i can start...but ...still no news.

I am nervous here..coz firs time working in community. I told them i can only work from 2 pm onwards tues-fri and weekends all day.
End of June is approaching...and i left about 2 more months to go. I have to go back to school in Sept.
I need to make more money. If school starts, I can only work weekends..maybe only Saturday...coz i know my school work load is crazy.
Rite now my body and brain really getting used to be lazy..hahhaa..getting up at 8.30 am everyday..man..this is luxury eh.
I used to get up at 6 am mon-wed..and 4am thu-fri..... geeze..i am really spoiled here.

Eager to work and at the same time...nervous. Once i am nervous..i feel like wanna go to washroom often...and really often! esp the number 2!
Don't know why..i had this when i was young....

I hope everything goes well... :)

Not Chinese

Last 2 weeks, I had BBQ and I had invited 2 of my classmates as well as my BIL. One of my classmate, G, she is single and one yr younger than my BIL. My intension was to let them get to know each other and hope something great can blossom from there.
Everything went well, and they are interested to proceed further. They have exchanged e-mails and i think hopefully they are going out for the first date this coming Saturday.

The issue here is my MIL not very happy about it. After that day, she did not speak to me for days...till now. She was upset because G is not Chinese. G is Spanish ..but she is very nice, gentle, kind hearted lady. That's why i want to introduce her to my BIL.

MIL's thinking is Chinese is better because can communicate better, and knows how to cook chinese food.
She once introduce my BIL a gal, daughter of her friends's friend...Chinese, but doesn't speak Chinese coz born in Canada and live Canadian lifestyle. so what's the difference?
BIL didn't like her... that was like last year.

And now.. I am trying to help my BIL...he is 28... just wanted him to mix around with more people..that's all.
I am not asking them to get married or something..if great things happened..they want to get married..that's their decision. Is my BIL life..and not hers!

Boyy, mil hated me even more on this eh...i guess i just shoot myself with a gun...hehehehe..
but i don't care..i am doing a great thing here...i didn't force my BIL..i am just letting them to know each other..that's all.

Wonder what she will do, when ...if BIL get married with G?
KILL ME??
heeheeh i really don't know..will see how..

Not good enough?

Yup, that's what explain me to someone in my house. NOT GOOD ENOUGH! No matter what I do, say or act ...is not good enough for her.

Sigh..why oh why...I tried...for years now...it doesn't work. My patience ran out... I guess..We will never get along..

After I started school, I thought things are getting better. We talked..but now I am on my break... that someone back to old self. Treating me like I am nobody. Tension is always around between us.
I am to blame when something happen to Ryan...like I am not a good mother. Doesn't know how to feed Ryan good. That someone will utter out words that hurt me so much. Sarcasm is so strong in the air that u could smell it with your stuffy nose.
I dislike when that someone compare me with what that someone can do... I am not that someone.. I have my ways.. I know what my son need...

Kids get sick ...esp when they are in day care. U can't avoid that!!

I just cannot believe that that someone can utter words that is not true about me. Making lies and remarks that is not true.
Her look is filled with hatred!
She never listen properly what I have to say. She twisted my words!

Never good enough! I was refer to as his mother...Ryan's mother! that lady!

This is ridiculous... I know i shouldn't be sad or upset. But I am a type of person who wants a happy family!
I do no wish any of this crap in my family.
When can i have my freedom....free from all this garbage!

...I am just too upset...it has been crazy lately that i need to express out my feelings.
I tried to fix this...she just won't allow... she just won't accept me.
Face it!
She just hate me very much! PERIOD!

middle man

Ryan is getting cuter and smarter these days. On Tuesday, we had steamboat for dinner and while we were eating, PIL were talking about their work stuff. All of a sudden, their gentle talks spiral to arguments. PIL are like that, they cannot talk gently to each other. They sure end up with arguments.

While they were arguing, here come our little "middle man" (RYAN) trying to cool off his grandparents.

RYAN: Mou chou la, .... chou chou meh yer? mou chou la...chou dou awe sek yer ar (don't argue la, why you guys want to argue? don't argue la, u r disturbing me eating)

Kit and myself were surprise..in fact, PIL were kinda ashame as they knew they always argue with each other and they had to be stopped by a 4 year old kid.

I am down with a bad cold

As i have mentioned earlier that I was sick since 3 weeks ago..yea..down with a bad cold. Coughing non-stop with greenish phlegm and sore throat. This virus is bad and strong. I am fighting it with only cough drops and lots of fluids. No anti-biotic for me as is viral infection.

Sigh, I am tired and i sounded like a broken record. Went to a walk-in clinic yesterday because I felt terrible yesterday.
Waited about 1/2 hour then came this young doctor, who didn't even spend 5 minutes checking on me.
What's the matter with today's health care system?
That doctor has bad communication skills with her clients. She treated me as if i am a thing not a person.
U need time to diagnosed the patient...how can u tell what's wrong with your patient if u didn't check them properly?

In Canada, if u want to see your family doctor, u have to like book an appointment. Yup, like me coughing till almost dying, still have to wait for weeks to see my doctor.
Therefor u left with no choice, to go to walk in clinics where u can get those any TOM and Harry kinda of doctor who just got out from practice..didn't know what they are doing.

Unlike in Malaysia, if u r sick, u just go to the 24 hours clinic and get fixed!
U dun have to wait or make appointment.
Sigh... how do we improve our health care system here?

Ontario are suggesting tele-health? using computerized diagnosed system? U think this will work?
Hmmm...will see how...
Nurses and doctors are encouraged to go through computer training courses for future health care system.

what to do?

I feel so lost...don't know what to do here. Remember the interview I had 2 weeks ago? Well, last Tuesday, the lady called me telling me everything seems going great..except they need another reference from somebody else and not my classmate. So i gave Lilian's phone number (my ex-boss where I volunteer b4). Before she hang up, she said..she will call me after that.

I was so happy ...she sounded so positive that i will get the job. So i waited and waited, no call from her till today. I called Lilian and Lilian told me that lady sounded very eager to hire me.

But she didn't call me back! I am left hanging here eh. I gave her a call today to follow-up..and she was not there. I left a message and and she didn't return my call either. Is already 5 pm and this monday is long weekend holiday. :(

I am so frustrated here. I felt like so lousy i cannot get a job...i just dunno what to do at home nowadays. So lazy! My brain is not working.
I miss the library at school! I miss studying. I miss doing homework!

Is hard to get satisfy...clock is ticking... so many things i need to finish. I still have to finish my high school diploma, one more book to do and an exam to write.
I have to get my G2 license before July if not my license will expire :(
With me listing it down..it gives me the shivers eh..
Sigh...
I still need to go to school to practice my skills... mannn... how u people do it?

Past 2 weeks, I have been sick and lost my voice. It sounded like a broken record. I couldn't sleep at nite...been coughing like crazy!
My garden is like a dump! The weeds are growing like crazy.
Instead of getting the things done, I am here to complain..hahahaah..
HUMAN!

Doctor Loo

Last Saturday, Kit has to send FIL's car for fixing (muffler problem). It was crappy day due to heavy rain all day. PIL did not work that day. BIL came that day because he has to send his car for fixing too.

About 6 plus in the evening, the mechanic called Kit to pick up the car from the garage. Ryan was fussing to follow his daddy. Kit gave in and let him follow. So there goes the 3 generation of LOOs in the car..

When Kit got back, he was smiling and laughing and he said I have story to tell.
Below are the conversations:

Kit: Hey Hun, u know what happened at the garage ar?

Me: What?

Kit: Ai yo..your son...very funny!

Me: How funny?

Kit: Well, as we arrived at the garage, Ryan came out from the car and went looking around the garage. Dad paid the mechanic and we were all ready to go home. I let Ryan in the car and he started to tell me this:

Ryan: Awe em chung yee kor kor uncle eh.. awe em tong hey say hi (I don't like that uncle... I will not say hi to him)

Kit: Chou meh em chung yee? (Why you don't like that uncle?)

Ryan: Hey pei hak hak, meen hak hak... yucky yucky ar (his nose black black, face black black, yucky yucky ar)

Kit: LOL... hai la..see nei me tok shue la..em tok shue chau hou chee uncle chou mechanic lor ( see, if you don't study hard, u have to be like uncle to become mechanic)

*** No offense to all mechanics, well, mechanics nowadays still have to go to school to get diploma eh..what kit meant was to show Ryan an example..just wanted him to study well or hard and be somebody...(typical chinese thinking)

2 weeks ago, i finished my semester 2 ..wohooo..officially...I made it! no more bio for next semester!
I can't believe i made it..i managed to go through my bio! What a blessing!

The first week of my break..i just sit around and do nothing..sleep, watch tv..and play with Ryan!
I took Ryan out..for a bus ride...he loves it! We had so much fun...last week, i think almost every day we went out for bus ride...hhhahha..crazy mommy here..
In Hamilton, we had this big long city bus...i thought i let him try it..
We have 2 kinds of city buses, one is regular one and the other is the long and big one.

When we travel to downtown, we took the regular one. HE is already excited with the regular one...

Our conversations:
Ryan: Wah...hou song...hou chor ar (wahh...it feels good...feel nice to ride)

Me: Nice leh.... happy happy mou? (Are you happy?)

Ryan: Nodding his head

Going back from downtown

ME: Yau Zhen, mommy dai nei chor big bus ha... (mommy bring u to ride big bus, okay?)

Ryan: Huh? bigggg? nee kor em big ar? *pointing at the regular bus* (huh? this one is not big? *pointing at the regular bus*)

Me: No...ni kor em big la...chin kan nei dai la...nei wooi hou chung yee ka (no..this is not big, later u will see what i mean... u will like it)

Ryan: Okay....

*BIG BUS CAME*
Ryan: Wahhhhhhh... hou big ar...hou big arr ( wah...that is big..that is big)

Me: Big leh...

Me: Har chee you chor big or small ar? (Next time, do u want to ride big or small bus?)

Ryan: Big!!

Ryan: hou fast ar (Is fast too)

* heheheh..he loves the big bus..coz is fast..we call it the Bee line no. 10!

Brain overloaded

I am so exhausted and my brain is overloaded now. Is 9.10 pm now and i am still trying to study for my tomorrow's test. I was in the college this morning since 8 am for my 8.30 test....then 3 pm i had one..n stayed in library for more drilling of my brain.

I just cannot wait for this whole thing to be over coz i am really exhausted here.
I am taking my little break here...my eyes like getting blury...my brain couldn't absorb anymore....
I need martini!
hhhahahah...

one more week

Wohoo..one more week, baby! I am counting the days... i am exhausted, gas running low here..but happy that i am almost finishing semester 2!

It has been a hell of journey so far, lotsa work!!

Last week clinial was alrite, THANK GOD! I was assigned with post operative day 1 patient on Thursday. I was freak out on Wednesday already coz she is just came out from oven!
FRAGILE! She had total knee replacement. Everything went well and on thursday, my instructor asked me to take up another patient on friday. So, 2 patients on Friday.
This means, stress level increased even more!

Praise the LORD! without HIM, i don't think i handled thigs so great that day. Everything went well, no complaints from my patients, medications administered correctly and on time even though i have 2 patients. I had a great nurse who incharged for my patients on Friday. Love her coz she taught me a lot!
I didn't get to have my break that day..but it was all worth it coz i learned a lot.

The best part of the day was...hahhaha..(warning-syiok sendiri case here)...as i was signing off my duty and taking elevator back to my locker, the elevator opens and there were like 4 residents or physicians from the surgery floor. They were wearing their scrubs and hat too.. and they were young!
As the door open, one of the physican got so excited seeing me and was like moving towards the front (they were all at the back-end of elevator). One of the physician said to the other "what u doing? Calm down...u r too old for her!" hahahahahha

what la... i am too old for him to be exact..kekekekeke... but i am happy at heart because ppl still think that i am young..hahahaah
(memang la syiok sendiri ni)

Anyway, i am just glad my clinical was great last week and I grateful to the LORD for watching over me.
No more broken bones or anything!

I did it..

Woah, can't believe I just make 10 bucks just like that. Hmmm, I should have joint Gene long time ago, Hahaha. This is probably one of the easiest way to make some side income. I know it's not much, but they all add up... ;)

Actually, I wasn't really ready to write my first post. I was vacuuming the house and washed the bathrooms. After that, I changed the motor oil for my car. Felt so tired and wanted to sit down, relax and watch some TV, but thought that I should start my first post since I was already introduced last week.

Well, I'm glad I did it and thanks to me, Gene's account just got another 10 big bucks!! ;)

Winter 2008

This has been one of the worst winter we ever had. We have snow storms one after another and shoveling snow seems like one of the never ending task. In fact, we even have flurries last week even though winter supposed to be ended on March 20.

Driving during snow storm has become of the greatest challenge I have to face in the morning. Yeah, I have to drive for about an hour 10 minutes (one way) to get to work. It is really nerve wrecking and there is one morning on my way to work, I almost lost control of my car and I have to steer my car left and right in order to keep my car on the road. Luckily there isn't any in-coming traffics. Gene said I better get a set of winter tires for next winter and I couldn't agree more.

Well, I hope there won't be any more snow coming (cross my finger) and there isn't any on the forecast this week :) Hopefully, we can really say " Good Bye " to Winter 2008 this time and get on with the spring season.

This rotation I am at the orthopaedic department in one of the Hamilton hospital. Boy i tell ya...this rotation is really challenging and nervewrecking!
My second day was really crazy..I was given a bone cancer diagnosed patient with just 7 days post-operative of her total right elbow replacement.
I have zero experience in taking care of post-op care patients...only books knowledge!

I was giving her a.m. care that morning..and was going to move to her left side to wash her back...a loud crack was heard! Omigosh..she had a fractured and i was freak out and just don't know what else to do. I called for help and i tell ya.. that day it was a hell of experience!

On top of everything, i have to give my patient medication, and taking blood pressure on her fractured arm... how challenging was that?

The whole day i felt so lousy and Thank God for my lecturer... she helped me alot!

I seriously don't like surgical floors as they are so fragile!

I prefer mental health patients better...maybe because i am one of them too..hahaahahah

I am exhausted but is all worth it after i see my results.
I am very grateful to MIL for taking care Ryan for me. That i have to give her a lot of credits for!

Last rotation i was doing medication-giving meds, insulin injection, eye drops, ear drops, and learn a lot of diseases. Boy..it is sad and scary!

Next week, second rotation, we will be doing wound care and I will be having my clinical placement at Henderson Hospital! Wohooooooooooooooooooo! i can't wait.. if i am lucky..i get to experience one of the surgery!
Will be at the orthopedics department.. with hip fractured ,knee replacement and all kinds.

Pictures

These pictures taken at Boston Pizza during FIL's birthday on OCt 19th. It was my treat that night. Well, they need to eat some western food coz they always end up with chinese food whenever we go out for dinner.

Ryan's first kid's meal and he chose pizza. Ryan behaved well that night and we were surprised he did!
He was a happy camper when he saw the fries and pizza!

So hardworking...

I have never been so hard working ever in my life in terms of studying.. ya... i just didn't expect that Nursing courses is this hard and tough. I almost wanna quit during early week of December. At that time, I still have 3 more weeks to go to complete my semester 1.
I cried like a baby at the nursing home, in front of my lecturer and my colleagues. Yup, due to i was so stressed up and I couldn't stand it anymore. That day, I was supposed to do vital signs on my resident, like taking blood pressure, temperature, abdominal assessment ...and oh my gosh..i couldn't wrap the blood pressure cuff on my resident's hand. She has Huntington disease and her hand kept moving. I was having a hard time that time. It was like I have no knowledge of doing vital sign skills at all.
I was very upset and my lecturer asked me to practice it again and come back next week for evaluation again.
That day, I also received back my Nursing care plan number 1 and guess what i did badly as in lack of analysis.
So everything added up and that pushes my button.

I cried and cried non-stop..it just won't stop. My lecturer had a good session with me after that, reviewing everything with me. I told her that i don't feel like i fit in the program and I felt like quiting.
Well, lucky i did not because.. out of 12 skills..i only couldn't do 2 skills well.
My lecturer said I have the character, attitude, ..and is just the skills i am lacking ...all i need to do is learn and practice more..that's it.

My resident loves me very much..and I do fall in love with her. I fall in love with all the residents there in nursing home. I have compassion towards what they are experiencing now. It is sad to see them there.
I will not wish that on anybody at all.
It is very sad eh.

So, everything goes okay..but very tough! Next semester will be tougher...will be doing medication, will be learning all kinds of drugs and how to give it to residents or patients..
then second 7 weeks or rotation, i will be doing surgical processes..get to see lots of cool stuff.
Again, will be 2 nursing care plan for each rotation... not really like Nursing care plan ..coz lots of work...and i hate the assessment.
oh well, i need to learn it because that skills will determine me earning 30 dollars an hour in the future.

Oh God, may you have the mercy and blessings on me!

No more Day Care

Yup, Ryan has stopped from going to day care since December month due to his health. Ever since Ryan started day care, he has been sick every 2 weeks. Always got either fever, running nose, or both. He has lost a lot of weight and has not been eating well.

As a result we stopped him from going to day care even though we know that he loves it very much. He has learned a lot of English and get to play along well with the kids and he even makes a list of his own best friends.

We were so undecided and it was hard for us to do that but his health is our first priority. MIL stayed home to look after Ryan for us, which i am very grateful for that!

Ryan missed going to day care very much..he even asked us why he didn't get to go...our answer was school is closed now due to winter cold. ..hehehe aiks..I know.. i know we might have problems when he really starts school that time..kekkeke..
but for now..we'll stick to this first..coz we really dunno what else to say to him.

I can tell he is bored at home with grandma..coz grandma can't teach him anything... that's sad..but his health is getting much better now. His appetite back to normal and no more sickness.
That's is more important now :)

One word to describe everything,..it was BRUTAL!

I am extremely exhausted, tired, sick, sleepy, brain overloaded, and to sum it all...i am like a car running without gasoline.

Yup, that's my condition now..heheheh... i am basically dragging myself to go one for the past month.

BUT... i am okay...just need time to recoup my energy and get ready for semester 2 (starts jan 2nd 2008)
