Internship

Hi peeps, I am back!
I have been busy for other stuff rather than sitting down in front of comp to update my blog. Kinda lazy ;)
I am sick of those weekly, monthly and final report for my industrial attachment. So, I prefer to write this post in Q&A format. That's would be much easier I guess.

1. How was my internship?
One word. BORED. From the first day of training, I started to love 5pm very much! Cant wait till 5 every day! It's simply because I ll be out of the lab at 5pm!

2. Do I like my training?
I would say half-half. I like the ppl but I don like the work. I like to tag along with the interns & some of the staff thr. We used to go out for lunch, hide in microbio room to gossip or share interest and find chances to visit the wards or walk around the hospital. That's the fun part! When comes to work, I don't really like it. That's not what I expect! Frankly speaking, I am regret to turn down the offer from IMR!

3. What have "Me" learned?
Ok. I learned all those medical term, screening test, fundamental theory in medical lab.. (I can always give you my final report to read if you wanna know more. LOL!) BUT, the most important lesson I have learned wasnt mentioned in the report. The ugly truth!! I learn the ugly truth in d industry. Guess what? I dont believe until I get through it myself.

4. The Most popular Advice from others
Choose Wise n Smart for your career!

5. Shall I become MLT in future?
I would say No. We shall c what happen in future. lol.

6. The most wonderful day during training
The last day in Lab!!! I have the best lunch ever. The very first n last time all the staffs were having lunch together gather..

7. The most terrible day during training
The first day in Lab!!! Because I am NOT attached to the department I applied for. I regret!

8. Task that I like the most in lab
To seperate serum from blood. Don ask me why. I dunno why. Maybe is the easiest job.

9. Task that I hate the most in lab
Finding lab request form

10. Interesting experiences as trainees
My first time experience to perform glucose finger prick testing for public. Joy (another trainee) and I did glucose finger prick testing for Kenny Roger's staffs that attended the healty diet in Berjaya Times Square. I was suprised that most of the ladies were so scared of that little lancet would hurt their finger. lol.

11. How "Me" feel about the lab?
Some words are left better not said.

Obsess with 'The Climb'

I can almost see it

That dream I'm dreaming but

There's a voice inside my head sayin,

You'll never reach it,

Every step I'm taking,

Every move I make feels

Lost with no direction

My faith is shaking but I

Got to keep trying

Got to keep my head held high

There's always going to be another mountain

I'm always going to want to make it move

Always going to be an uphill battle,

Sometimes you going to have to lose,

Ain't about how fast I get there,

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb

The struggles I'm facing,

The chances I'm taking

Sometimes they knock me down but

No I'm not breaking

The pain I'm knowing

But these are the moments that

I'm going to remember most yeah

Just got to keep going

And I, I got to be strong

Just keep pushing on,

There's always going to be another mountain

I'm always going to want to make it move

Always going to be an uphill battle,

Sometimes you going to have to lose,

Ain't about how fast I get there,

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb

There's always going to be another mountain

I'm always going to want to make it move

Always going to be an uphill battle,

Sometimes you going to have to lose,

Ain't about how fast I get there,

Ain't about what's waiting on the other side

It's the climb

Keep on moving

Keep climbing

Keep the faith baby

It's all about

It's all about

The climb

Keep the faith

Keep your faith

I just fell the same as what the lyrics saysss..... It's the Climb

I just simply like this picture so much =)

认识你

人与人的缘分就像公共巴士，
有些人，会在半路途下车，
有些人，会在下一站上车，
我们都不知道谁会遇见谁。。。
有一些人，你一开始就看他不顺眼，
可是后来却是你的朋友。
有一些人，你觉得他会是个好朋友，
认识后才发现不是这么一回事。
有一些朋友，话题总围绕着小范围， 就这么谈也谈不上话题。
有一些朋友，会让你感觉很舒服，就好像一见如故，可以谈得畅快。
你就是其中一位。。。让我感到你是一见如故的朋友！
认识你， 不是很长的时间， 也不是常聚在一起。
但是，与你谈话就很轻松，不束缚，一起分享生活点滴。。。
交朋友就是这样，舒服就好。

P/s: dedicated to the one who read this, and know what it means for =p

I just Felt...

看见的，不一定是发生的；所发生的；不一定是看到的。
不要问自己，为什么每次受伤的总是我？要问自己，为什么让他人受伤害？
争论对与错已不重要了，就让沉默把一切带走。
忘记该忘记的，接受不能改变的。

The Day We Went Away

YengPing • WenChieh • KengYean • LaiYing • PuiLi

We have been graduated from high school for about 2 years ago. All the while, we went to trip with different friends. But, five of us have not been to trip together. Never.

Many arising reasons caused our plan to excursion failed. However, we made it happened finally. Penang, here we came. Actually, we were planning to travel a bit further, to Sabah or Sarawak perhaps. For me, it does not a matter. I am looking forward the moment five of us travel together but not the destination.

There were many first times in this trip.

The very first time five of us went to excursion together.

The first time I was on flight.

The first time we rent a car and travel around.

The first time I used GPS to travel.

And the first time we stayed together.

Day 1
We arrived to penang airport around 5.30pm. After settle all the car rental stuff, we headed our way to our hotel – copthorne orchid without further delay. Neither the small or big nor detail or brief maps we had brought along seem helping. Thank god that GPS was created in our generation. Such a useful kit, man! We able to reach hotel on time, everything just goes well. Just that our dinner time was delayed. The reason was simply because we insist to explore for delicious and nice food in Penang rather than eating in any hawker stall or restaurant that can be easily found elsewhere. Lastly, we found the restaurant...

Finally I can enjoy my dinner =)

Day 2
As planned the night before, we wake up very early to start the journey of the day. Char Yee was joining us that day and be our tour guide. Our journey strated from Georgetown to batu ferringi then to teluk bahang to balik pulau to bayan lepas and then back to tanjung bungah. Referring to the map, we had actually made a big round of penang island. So can this considered as Island hopping?? We had travel the whole penang island in a day I guess!

Dim sum breakfast at Jalan Anson.

Pray Pray in tokong-tokong at Jalan Burma.

Cendol and durian icekacang for lunch at Jalan XX …
hehe.. I had forgotten this one.

The most interesting part would be we travel from penang island to butterworth port then back to penang island by ‘free ferry’. credit: edited photo by mellisa

We skipped out the ferry fares and escaped! What a brilliant idea from our tour guide!
Now, we are heading to beaches in Teluk Bahang. Freaking hot weather here. So u can expect what we would do…
Its best to quench our thirst with some coconut drinks..

Typical sunburn phobic aka puteri lilin with umbrella in beach..

Heading to the next destination, there were no more highways or straight roads on sight. We passed by hill roads, durian farm, waterfall and kampung village. After that, I was like half awake half asleep. When I was awake, we reached the next destination without knowing the name of the place. That night, we had a seafood dinner! Our stomach was grunting contentedly with the food on the table.

Exhausting but fulfilling journey for day 2. So let’s the picture tell the rest..

Day 3 was the last day. But, we were like just arrived and settle down ourselves in Penang. Penang is the food paradise in Semenanjung. So, before we left Penang, for sure we won’t miss out the famous local food. Here we were – Lorong Selamat Joint. Everyone told me that Penang “Char kueh teow” is the best! I doubt that before until I tried this one. What can I said?
Penang “Char kueh teow” is the best!

It's time to back to home...credit: edited photo by mellisa

Bye, Penang!

Tao Cuisine lounge

Heard the name of this lounge quite often from my friend, yin su.Whenever we go to sushi king with yin su, for sure she will talk about the dishes in Tao! From the variety of sushi to sushimi then to tempura, grilled food and etc.. It's so tempting!! As we are food enthusiast with the mind of " live to eat" instead of "eat to live", we have planned to go for TaO at beggining of this semester. However, due to some reasons, the visit to Tao was postponed until the end of semester.

Finally, we got to there....

GoodBye, my friend..

GoodBye,

my best friends - Siow Man

Friendship may be a simple thing,
But lots of love, it can bring..

All my life, friendship lasts

Through the years, when i looked back

Remembering the Laughs and Happy times

Along with the cries and sorry sigh

We may not have the time to share things and talk about

as we are far apart to persuade our dreams

But,

Friendship can never come apart

Especially when its straight from the heart.

Take Care well..

Best wishes from me

sayonara^^

She is lovely,

A pre-birthday present from her before her flight to India..

That's a memorable present

**Thank you **

is

just a small thing to say to someone

who is such a big part of my life,

but i hope you know how much your friendship

means to me today

and always...

Randomness

What is to be done is KNOWLEDGE

How it is to be done is SKILL

When it is to be done is COMMON SENSE

The Misconstrue

{Dialogue}
Doctor: Tan Keng Yean??
Me: Ya. Doc, I am having sore throat and flu
Doctor: Ok, let me check ur body temp n blood pressure first
A moment Later
Doctor: No fever. but your heartbeat rate is fast [hr: 130/min]
Me: So what is the normal heartbeat range?? **getting nervous
Doctor: I recomemd u go for ECG test in room 6. And we ll c the result later
After ECG test
Doctor: The heartbeat is normal, just that the beat rate is too fast
Me: ** Remain silent
Doctor: You are susppect to have THYROID.
Me: ** What ?? Thyroid??
Me: What are the symptoms of getting thyroid?
Doctor: Palpitation, shacky hand, lose weight, trauma..
Me: Ya,ya my hand tremble quite often. But I am gaining weight instead of losing weight.
Me: Is that serious?
Doctor: If untreated there will be critical.
Me: ** rigid worried look
I keep asking question related thyroid as I am so worried.
Doctor: I cant tell u anything now. You are required to do blood test to check is a positive or negative result.

This incident make me worried for the whole night, until i cant fall asleeep. I start to think nonsence.. many if IF ef EF .... over my blank brain.

My brother take the trouble fetch me here and there to go for blood test, seek for another doctor just to prove that whether I am diagnose with thyroid or not. Appreciate all the things my family did for me. Also, thankful to my close friends: ping, fa, pui n ying that concern for me.

Finally the result is out. It's a NEGATIVE result. I am NOT diagnose with thyroid.
Thank god! Finally relief..
