"You again?" hahaz. i noe e procedures by heart liao. hahaz. noe how 2 position my pinkie. noe wat terms i need 2 sign against. hahaz. oh my. i tink i reallie treat tis accident like a learnin journey. hahaz. i m mad.
wait n wait n wait. thruout tis whole period there r more n more pple. then in 1 or those rms nearby. named 'procedures'. drillin sounds r heard. wow liao. immediately remind mi of e period of time when i was pushed into e operatin theatre's pre rm 2 hav my rite arm anaesthetic/plug redone. at tt time i was conscious le. coz after op n e nurses alrdy woke mi up. so while Dr Low. my anaesthetist was performin e 'electrical impulses' search 4 my junction of nerves. i heard drillin within e operation room. oh my. hahaz. real drillin u noe. hahaz. remind mi of construction site. n i was like wonderin tt patient inside muz hav a supreme big fracture manz. hahaz. need 2 drill 4 so long. e screws muz be supreme thick n long. eekz!
continue to wait until 10 plus b4 i get 2 c e doc. when my appointment is like 9.15 am. abit off arhz. n sum more e doc i c is nt my surgeon. it's one of e HOs i c durin my hospital stay. then it's like e moment i walked in wearin e sch u. she looked up n sae. 'i didnt noe tt u r frm rj'. hmmz. she turned out 2 be frm rj also. expected. hahaz. no big surprise. since like dun noe how mani rj students continue 2 study medicine. she is vry nice lahz. at least she didnt purposely induce pain in mi. hahaz. she peeled off my dressin. n immediately tell mi 2 go remove my stitches. i abit stunned. coz i was originally scheduled 2 remove my stitches on thurs at e polyclinic. then now she is like tellin mi 2 hav them removed immediately at one of e rms named 'procedures'. oh dear. tt's so nice rite. hahaz. she was askin mi 2 show her how much i can bend my pinkie n tryin 2 gauge e angle roughly. hmmz. then i was like askin her wat happen 2 Dr Cheng. n whether i need 2 c him. then she went 'oh. he will be here soon. he's on his wae. i tink he will want to c u. he wan to check on ur progress'. n i immediately went 'nono. i dun tink he wan 2 c mi. erhz. dun wan. dun wan. can i dun c him?' n obviously e answer is no. sighz.
so i went 2 hav my stitches removed. my 5 bright blue stitches tt had accompanied mi 4 11 daes. was vry scared. coz dun noe lahz. my courage juz disappear. sighz. then e nurse she cleansed my wound there. n she started to remove my stitches. n i tell u. it's painful. oh my goodness. e wae she did it was 2 use a pair of tweezer or dun noe wat u call tt. 2 pull e thread abit so tt e knot is above e skin n cut it. n it hurts. coz e thread will be strainin against my skin/flesh in my finger when she pull it. lucky 4 mi i only hav like 5 stitches. if i hav more stitches like e man i saw durin my hospital stay at e occupational therapy centre w at least like 20 stitches. i tink i wun tahan n will juz die there. after tt she uses tt spray ting tt make mi feel vry painful durin e removal of my left hand plug. but strangely it didnt hurt much tis time round. hmmz. aniwae tis spray is used 2 form a waterproof layer above e wound lahz. so i m onli required 2 wear my current supreme thin n small dressin 4 like 3 daes then i can remove it. n my hand can finally touch water le!!! i can shower w both hands le. yeahz!!! only pple who hav tried showerin w onli 1 hand 4 a few daes will understand wat i mean. n i noe tt my dear daddy gabriel does. coz he scalded his hand b4. luv u daddy!
so Dr Cheng finally arrive when he is 1 n a half hr late lahz. his first appointment supposed 2 be at like 9.00am. aiyohz. n i was sittin there behind tis man. in e 2nd row of seats. directly facin rm 17(HO) which is linked to rm 18(Dr Cheng). a patient went in 2 c him. so i was like readin my chem notes. then suddenly he open rm 17 door n was like saein ' where's tt girl? i wan to c her.' to e HO but he's alrdy at e door le. so basically everywan outside can hear him. then he was lookin out n scannin e pple. n didnt c mi! hahaz. coz i was being blocked by e man infront. who hav a even bigger head than jermyn. who always block mi durin band prac. resultin in mi nt able 2 c mr oura. so yahz. so when he spotted mi. he looked at mi n sae. 'i wan 2 c u now.' then i abit 'huh? where? here? in e middle of like alot of pple rite. oopz.
so he walked over 2 mi n asked mi 2 show him my pinkie. n ask mi 2 bend it. though he is quite satisfied w e progress he is still nt happie w e results. n he was like bendin my finger 4 mi again. n reallie vry pain. tt kind of nerve n bone pain. aiyahz dun noe how 2 describe. but reallie pain until u can cry tt kind lahz. n when he realise tt my face is like filled w pain. he sae 'u muz reallie push urself. or else u will nv recover ur full control over ur finger. i m nt comfortable w e idea of cin u 1 mth later. so i will c u 2 wks later. u muz continue to bend ur finger. i hav a patient who was in judo who was able to regain full control of his fractured finger. i expect u 2 do e same.'
so i went 2 pay n set up e next appointment. even e assistant who serve mi remember mi also. she was like askin mi. when's e operation? n i was like erhz. it had alrdy passed. i had op e dae after i c Dr Cheng. when she was his assistant n helpin him settle e admin stuff while he was attendin 2 e patients. e dae when i chose to go 4 operation. n once again i m stunned by e bill. oh well. wat do i expect? sighz.
went back 2 sch after tt 4 gp n chem prac. coz ms tang specifically asked mi 2 come back 2 sch 4 chem prac. but was like tokkin 2 birdie. ymw. jian hong durin e last part of prac lahz. then was tellin them tt i was e youngest patient in e ward. was also like e onli patient in e ward under e dept orthopedic surgery aka ORT. n i was actuallie quite spolit. coz i actuallie hav a nurse specifically attached 2 look after mi. n my most embarassin moment. when i was plannin 2 shift myself to e operatin bed n as i was under e effect of e anaesthetics administered. i actuallie sae outrite my thots: 'Can i juz roll over?' n those who were present in e rm laughed at mi. oh my. so 'throw face'. yahz. after tt went back 2 woodlands w yee keow n went 2 teach tuition. was quite horrified by my tutee's lack of foundation. n her concepts is quite mixed up though we covered e concepts in e previous tuition. n she was like commentin. tt 4 quite a few qns. she was nt able 2 answer them durin her test. but now facin similar qns. w mi sittin beside her. she is able 2 answer them. hahaz. she was saein. she shld juz bring mi into e examination hall w her. hahaz. taught her a maths n chem. logs n chem bonds respectively. hopefully i cleared up all e doubts she hav. hmmz.
supposed 2 hav chem test 2dae. but then. erhz. ms tang suggested tt i postponed it 2 2molo after sch at 11am. so yeahz! hahaz. i can study more. hmmz.
mr tay gave out e maths paper 2dae. n was like goin thru e paper in class lahz. when i m supposed 2 do it n hand it in 2 him 2 mark 2molo. so i m like goin 2 do onli 2nite? so i asked him shld i like leave e class. but he sae ' dun need. juz cover ur ears n eyes.' n i abit 'huh? cover ears?' but in e end i was studyin chem lahz. so reallie didnt listen 2 him at all. hahaz.
went 4 pe n played w e gym ball. hahaz. was quite fun lehz. esp e 'conveyer belt' when 5 gym balls r placed in a row n e gurlz took turns 2 be 'moved along'. hahaz. enjoyed it alot. hahaz. i like ms sim. hopefully she continue 2 stay in rj. sighz. napfa is comin. in late april. was wonderin will i be able 2 regain full control of my finger by then. esp w e fact tt e swell did nt come down after like so long. n my bruise is still so big. was wonderin whether my rite hand will be able 2 support my weight at all durin e inclined flex arm hang. nvm. i shld juz try 2 ask 4 an mc. but if i m able 2 do it. which means like if my swellin decrease n i get more control back. then i will juz take napfa lahz.
aniwae learned frm daddy gabriel tt e sch bought insurance 4 all e students. so went 2 check w ms sim n was referred to e GO. hahaz. n true enough. i can claim back my medical fees! yeahz! i wun be so broke after all. hahaz. but i need 2 collect all e receipts n claim at one go. which is quite hard. considerin e fact tt i m still goin back 2 c my occupational therapist n doc. but nvm. sooner or later. i will still get back e money! hahaz.
aniwae ebloggy recovered their old database which included my old blog n stuff. but dun noe wat happen. after i register a new account w them n try 2 transfer my old account 2 my new account. i cldnt find my blog at all. i m like how pissed. supreme pissed. tis prove tt my decision 2 switch blog server is a correct wan. even though i heard of sum reallie bad stories abt blogspot. but i still hav some confidence in it. hmmz.
