hi girls
my life has been non-stop working/studying for about 2 months now.
i'm officially out of my house officer year, and i'm now called a "senior house officer" or a fy2. very scary, because although i have 1 year's experience behind me, the responsibility is also greater and i still feel like a junior inside.
bin, that was a really good video. i guess all of us, at some point, no matter what we're doing, will feel low and crappy. i know i do.
i really hate my job at times, because it just seems like i went into it naively thinking i was going to magically make everyone better. but there's more paperwork than patient care, i don't even like or sympathise with some of my patients, and sometimes the demands and pressures put upon me just make me feel like giving up. i thought patients would be grateful and appreciative, but sick patients and patients in pain are not necessarily grateful, doctors are getting more and more involved in litigation issues, and then there are the repeat offenders who come in all the time because of self inflicted problems, ie alcoholics, drug abusers, etc etc. sometimes i wish for an ideal world where everyone would remember to take their medication, do as they're told but it doesn't happen that way. i already feel so tired of this job and i've not even gone all the way up the ladder yet. i've seriously considered quitting as well.
so besides that, i've just sat for my mrcp exam (it's a specialist exam for those wanting to specialise in medicine) yesterday which is a hard paper with a 70% fail rate. i'm back on surgery on call today from 8am until 9pm, and tomorrow. on friday i start nights from 8pm until 9am and i finish on sunday. so there's my weekend gone. when i finish on monday 9am, i get the rest of the day off and then i'm back doing 8-5pm the rest of the week. my bank account has gone into overdraft a few times because i don't have the time to go to the bank any more, i have to do everything online. but hey still, that's life isn't it.
thanks for all your birthday wishes and happy belated to the july, august and september babies!!! i will update another day when i have the time but but but i just wanted to tell you all that i've booked my plane ticket home for oct 10 and i'm arriving oct 11! will be in msia for roughly 2 weeks. so i will see all of you then and i can't waitttt because i miss all of you so so much. heading off to sleep now for another 13 hour shift tomorrow ....... wish me luck!
love hsiu lye

i'm here
and yes i don't know what is in store for me in oct.nov and dec....
it's 8am in the morning and im going to krabi for a wedding...am singing for the wedding and i'm looking forward to this break in a long time...my first holiday for this year.....
oh well i think sometimes we put in 110% but we believe that we only get what 40% of what we've put in... but this is life.,..
it comes to a point sometimes i tell myself i'm sick and tired of teaching,....im sick
of this and sick of that...but when we think and realise what we can contribute...maybe we would feel a little better.....like the other day...my student came and told me teacher i want to be a music teacher can ar? well it's stuff like that that keeps you going....so always try and look for the silver lining at every dark cloud....
i miss you all very much and i hope that we can catch up soon!! chris promise after krabi i'll be seeing you!!!!
love you guys

October....
" Count the garden by the flowers, never by the leaves that fall.
Count your life with smiles and not the tears that roll"
i believe everyone of us has the obstacles, nonsense that everyone has such a perfect life...melo is waking up midnight answering calls, ping is working til dunno hell wat time, su yin is like running around recording, chris deserve better $$$ while cleaning the shit work, angie chong in US missing us, msia food, haha the list can go on...and im challenging a new role...............
Cheer up! Starbucks on me ok..;)
this is a very sad post...
however busy we are, never forget to take really good care of ourselves as we can no longer deny that we are all 25 heading 30. will start noticing that we are aging faster, metabolism starts slowing down, getting tired easily, start noticing fine lines by the eye, below the eye... etc.. etc .. etc..
what draws me to writing this is because my very caring bf has very consistently reminded me out of good will that if i dont take good care of my face and body now, i'll start looking like 'sum tin har' - 'lydia sum'. and nope, i dont want to end up being fat and not so attractive when i've never even been attractive before. cant imagine being ugly all my life. what a loser, no achievement at all! no prime time before.
lately i am abit stressed up at work. it's the last quarter to close deals, meeting targets, and achieving quotas.. and being a sales support, the pressure and stress from the sales managers are mounting up on me. favoritism is showing, and cooping with work has been really tough. signs are showing that i m not performing well and my job's at stake. if someone has to go, i'll be the 1st to be gotten rid off.
yesterday was a very sad day for me. i came home, dad told me it's time to sell my car. things are falling apart and fixing it would cost me more than a new car. before i even get to understand what each button does, i have to say g'bye to my car. buying a new car? i really doubt i can afford another car. it was my pride, now it's going away. i bought it to prove to myself that i could be independent, and i could drive like everybody else. but now .. i m back to square 1. still as useless as before.
i dont know where am i heading to. feeling so lost at the moment. just when i thought i had it all, a career, a reliable and caring but not so romantic man, my very 1st asset-my car... it's all starting to look distance again. so much uncertainty.
i cant recall what used to be my dreams and goals, and what i used to work for. everything feels so meaningless tonight.

bin's posting..
Yes boss.. yes sinlee.. I m blogging .. I m blogging… don’t angry… don’t marah… :D
my life’s a real bore, I cant think of anything to blog about...
I took a Quart of baskin robbins ice cream on the 31st Aug celebrating independent’s day and I thought I would get ice cream poisoned from overdosed of ice cream. but i survived, punished by a few newly added kgs and a heavier flabby arm accompanied by a higher density of fats on my 3 layer stomach.
And I think I m falling sick… my entire body’s aching.. having a headache.. and water’s dripping from my nose. I can feel that uncle flu's coming to visit. and my aunt P is here for her monthly visit therefore all these are adding to my irritation and frustration.
i cant wait till raya hols... then i can sleep and hibernate like sinlee :D
Holiday? I want holiday in cambodia! Anyone up for Cambodia? Mystical - historical - antique - OooO - Cambodia….


so who's up for holiday end of the year?
