Location: Singapore

A Singaporean girl who graduated from a Medical College in the UK and currently working as a doctor, spending most of my years abroad burying myself amongst medical books, speaking Queen's English and trying to adapt to life in Britain. But I still remain a true blue Singaporean who loves my plate of char kway teow and enjoys the sense of closeness when speaking "Singlish" to my fellow countrymen. Why "The Chinese Doctor"? Because that's what my patients call me since they don't know my name!

Bad Saturday...

My Saturday is BAD BAD BAD!!!!!! Piangz, made me so pissed off the entire day till my head hurts now...ooouuuccccchhhh...

I should be off the bed now rather than sitting here and blog. But I'm just pissed lah. And since my boy's busy watching political videos on his laptop, I shall just be quiet and grumble here.

My morning started off the usual bad way when the alarm clock went off at 7am. It's not THAT early to many ppl, but it's FREAKING early for pigs like me, and hey...it's Saturday..one of the miserable days of the week I get to sleep till the sun shines on my butt. But today, I can't. And I got no proper weekend cos I have to make my way to the hospital for placement. SAD RIGHT?!

And the crazy winds welcomed me the moment I got out of my accomodation. SUPER STRONG! I had to overcome so much resistance with my weak body just to make my way to the stupid bus station which isn't that far, but seemed like a billion miles away, thanks to Mr. Wind.

Happily sat there (ok, maybe not so happy since I'm freezing in the cold), and wondered why the bus didn't arrive. Had a peep at the board, and realised that the bus route has changed because of the rugby match at the Millenium Stadium today! Sheesh, I just hate it whenever there's a match going on here. So many roads are closed, and bus stops are changed to other places too. I ended up having to walk 15 minutes (under the terribly strong wintry winds) to the new "venue" to board the bus.

Thought I'll have a productive time at the hospital, but NO! There were so many complicated cases that the bloody ward round (just to see 6 patients and 2 babies) took up the entire morning. I could just die walking around like an idiot with the Consultant and Registrar. And because they were so busy, I didn't get taught anything at all. Such a complete waste of time. Not to mention, I actually stayed in the hospital till about 3pm being an idiot. Couldn't stand it any longer, and just went home. The only thing to be consoled about is the "I am impressed with your presence today!" from the Consultant. *rolls eyes*

Was famished when I got back home, since I didn't even have time, or rather, don't even dare to excuse myself to go for lunch. Started craving for Swedish meatballs from IKEA, so decided to get my boy to go with me. Checked out which buses are supposed to go there, and happily made my way to the "changed" stops, but got darn freaking pissed off when I was told that those buses do NOT go to IKEA. EAT SHIT MANZ! I was told different things from different bus drivers about which bus to take and to board from where. Listened to them with doubts, and guess what?! I got tricked!!!! THOSE LIARS!

I practically walked round the entire city centre, before being told to go to the other end again. Thanks, but no thanks mate. CG and I got so fed up, we just wanted to go nowhere else but HOME!

Dinner was the best bit of the day though. Pizza hut :) Not that I love pizzas, but it's been quite a while since we last had it. And I realise I'm getting hooked to fizzy orange drinks. Simply love it. Tango rulez! :)
