Monday- Was backstabbed by my preceptor
Tuesday- Uneventful
Wednesday- Josephine (patient cum friend) has finally completed her chemotherapy and can proceed with all her wedding preparations. Happy for her!
Thursday- We informed that my patient cum close friend has succumbed to cancer and had passed away. It was said that she didn't want to leave. I understood... She had unfulfilled dreams and unfulfilled things to done. Her mum said she was gasping for breath, unwilling to go until her mum had to promise her to take care of her husband after she passes away...
Friday- Managed to get half day off and went to Raffles Hospital to find Shuting. After that went to IMM to find Josephine and had dinner at Sakae Sushi (J8) with her.
Saturday- GSS day and went shopping with my mum-in law. Damages of around $100. Bought a dress, a pair of Ripple slippers, brief for my hubby and lunch with starbucks coffee...
Lastly... that China woman would be back tomorrow 5am and my mother in law said she had decided to move the whole China with her as for her luggages alone, a lorry has to be driven to Changi Airport to bring the stuff back. The home would be a dumpster and like a karang-guni home from tomorrow onwards. My peace and quiet is once again invaded with that China woman. Shit!
About Me

Backstabber
Today at work, I was almost backstabbed by my preceptor right in front of my nose and with my manager around... Kaoz... Damn't bloody pissed off! Dare to accuse me when the fault didn't lie with me in the first place.
My preceptor signed for an injection see didn't give as the patient would only come for the injection on 14 July. But she had signed for it like as if it was given. Thus, my manager came to know about it and questioned her about it. I was also called in for explanation as my name and signature was also on the medication record sheet. (It is a common and a must for all medications given to be checked and signed by 2 nurses. The one who signs on the top column is the one who administers the medication, the one who signs on the bottom column is the one who has checked that the right drug was given.)
So my manager was asking the both of us what happened and how the mistake was made. I explained that I had checked the medication but did not see and hear whom she had administered the injection to as I was busy with my own patient. My preceptor kept quiet and only muttered some insignificant words.
After my manager emphasize the seriousness of the event and requested for an incident report, the conversation followed:
Preceptor: Amelia, I thought you gave the medication and I just signed it for you.
Me (shocked): No, I did not give the medication.
Preceptor: No, you gave the medication and signed the wrong column so I just sign it on the top column. See, you even written the batch number of the injection and labelled the medication form.
Me (pissed and angry): I wrote the form and the batch number for you 'cause you didn't write them down and it is required to be all properly filled up.
Preceptor: Aiyah, I don't know lah!
Me (totally pissed and loss for words: ...
I think my manager could sense my firmness in maintaining my stand in this case that I was not the one who made the mistake and my preceptor had to be the one who write the incident report.
However, I am very shocked as well as pissed at how my preceptor for trying to push the blame to me for something that was actually her fault. This is how some people can be when they need to cover their ass and safeguard themselves. How evil! Luckily, I am firm and fast to react, otherwise, I would be the one in hot soup now...
For the past few weeks, my preceptor has been making many serious mistakes:
1) Taking blood for extra tests wrongly and charging patient extra money for the test.
2) Administering the chemotherapy for a patient is not supposed to be recieving chemotherapy due to low blood counts.
3) Setting the cannula for a patient improperly and causing the patient to get extravasation.
She is obviously not concentrating on her work...

Maid Of Honour
Watched it last night. Not bad! Brings to thinking that when it comes to love, every woman does have somehow the same desire: to marry someone whom she can trust, someone who loves her, someone who would be there when she is down, a confidante.
In love, I rather be the receiver but too bad, in this marriage, I am the giver... Until the day I have nothing else left to give, it would be a sign for me to back out and leave...

Back At Last
I am back at last... Happy to be back as I think I am more used to a civilized and orderly society than in China. But I know I will miss the beautiful sceneries and cooling weather...
Day 1: Singapore - Shanghai (Pudong) - Wuxi
Day 2: Wuxi Rural Area
Day 3: Wuxi Town Area
Day 4: Wuxi - Yixin
Day 5: Wuxi - Nanjing
Day 6: Wuxi- Shanghai
Day 7: Wuxi (Karaoke and Fishing)
Day 8: Wuxi- Shanghai (Pudong) - Singapore
Have uploaded the pictures at my multiply website... www.mintger.multiply.com
I have left Singapore 24 years old and came back 25 years old... 5 years more to hitting the dreaded 30years old as it is said that a woman's life, health and beauty will decline from then on...

Early Birthday Celebration
My husband decided to give me an early birthday treat as I won't be around in Singapore during my birthday period.
Had Punggol Seafood and the standard has dropped since the last time we had our dinner there in Dec 2007.
Anyway, my marriage is still in deep jeopardy, he ain't talking about any marriage plans for next year or even getting intimate with me. So sad...
By the way, my brother in law and that prc woman is really getting married this year... double, triple sianz... I am not in the mood to attend any weddings this year especially if it is a wedding of the person/people I don't fancy at all... Wonder if I can be excused from this event... Haiz....
