getto work in Selangor, so what?

say whateva u want.. that i 'sai meng' for getting to work in Klang yet still complaining...
seriously, if u're in that hospital, i can bet with u that u'll complain as much as we do!

who came up with that blardy idea of needing a pharmacist in a hospital for 24 hours??

provided if the pharmacist can help or assist the doc, then ok lah. but y put we the newbies who doesn't have much experience in the hosp for 24 hours?

just to do TDM when got ppl commit suicide? to dispense medicine to those patient who came in with bruises n injuries?

sitting at the counter of farmasi A&E in the middle of the nite just to tell the pt this med is for tahan sakit and that one is to hilang bengkak??

i know i might be able to learn a lot lah... but has the gov eva tot that we PRPs r human beings and not animals wei.... we need ample rest as well.

k lah, say that i'm sensitive lah.... but ppl r saying that we who getto work within selangor state shud not complain. let's be fair! if u're not in our shoes, u'll neva know how it feels. same thing goes to u. i would neva know how's the feeling of working in other states.

on the brighter side, u get extra allowance plus u dun have to work extra hours while we gotta do it without extra money.

if i was send to other hosp like serdang, sungai buloh... i'll neva complain n wud happily serving my one year of PRP there! those places r like heaven....

i promised that i'll keep my mouth shut after this, that i'll neva complain anymore... cos i shud b thankful for i'm still working within Selangor state woh....

Melaka 1 day trip

Went to Melaka during the Raya weekends. My gosh, sampai sekarang onli blog abt it. PRP in HTAR really no life wan lah.... Anyhoo, tot of going there to jalan jalan and cari makan as well. Havent been to MElaka for abt 6 years liau and everytime when we were there, we neva try the chicken rice wan. So this time, we make it a-must to eat the chicken rice. MUahaha....


Parked our car opposite the St. Francis Xavier church. Then we walked over to the Stadhuys (the red buildings) & I saw this

Damn colourful and pretty lah the trishaw...

The Christ Church.

Souvenirs...

This beca is even prettier d previous one...

Antique shop along Jonker Street.

After that we decided to go for lunch. RICE BALLS!!

We ended up in this shop.

It's featured in the AEC program... This is the host of the program lah, Jason... cant ingat the name of the show lah... hehe....

C what they serve in the restaurant.

What we've ordered!
Then, we jalan- jalan along Jonker Street again and saw this couple.... selling gula ketuk...
Till now, i've never tsted it b4.... quite mahal lah... small peket for rm2.

The weather was super hot.... and i mean really burning hot. So, off we go for some cooling desert. ABC and cendol!....slurp!

Each of us got this. Durian cendol. Not very nice lah....

Oh, this coffee shop is also a museum woh... so got lotsa this antiques loh ...

After that, we went to the Jusco and then headed home.

That's a brief summary on my Melaka trip. Still didnt manage to try satay celup lah... so sad...

=(

gotta work tmr.... how sad. life sux! wait a minute, i dun even have a life... how could it sux...i'm going nuts....

monday blues.... huhu...

Dun wanna shift. HOW?

I dun wanna shift to Klang yet... cant imagine how's life gonna be without TV and Internet. I'm like going back to the zaman purba liau... *Big sigh*

Anyway, I'm being sent to Satelite for 6 weeks and tmr marks the end of my 1st week. Woohoo~ 5 more weeks to go. Darn, guess after this I'll b going to ward pharmacy liau... I'm so f*cking not prepared... I still couldnt identify whats List A drug... Still dont know what r the max doses of certain drugs.... How am I gonna jalan ward?? *Headache*

Oh, we had a 2 day kursus, yesterday and today. Seriously, it was AWESOME!!
No, not that the kursus is fun, it's just that we getto meet back all the IMU ppl there... Havent had that kind of feeling for long time liau... We were basically always laughing all the time during lunch... Guess IMU ppl are more playful type compared to others.... *Giggle* Thats probably cos we know life's not just abt work lah.... *giving myself an excuse*

Oh, anyone into seaweed?? I've tried this crispy seaweed and it's really nice! it comes in various flavours. I've tried spicy and wasabi. Mum says the spicy one is nicer woh... I personally quite like the wasabi one...
I think SEAWEED LOVERS shud giv it a try....

Ok lah, that's all for this post... DUn know when will i be blogging liau after this. No Internet connection summore need to study for forensic exam. REally can DIE lah ppl...

Going Internet-less soon....

Weekdays sux cos u gotta work... Weekends sux as well when u have to work!!

In conclusion, everyday sux for me cos I'm working everyday *Bang my head*...

Wont b having internet connection for quite some time.... Gonna be moving soon.... Will blog about it if i still have the strength to after working.... *Big Sigh*

Life in HTAR, Klang

Havent been updating ma blog for very long time dy. Dont know where to start.

Anyway, yea, i m posted to Hospital Tengku Ampuan Rahimah, Klang. Damn far from my home, can.

Kinda sickening, need to travel to and fro everyday.

Takes me about 50-60 mins drive each journey. Yea, mind u, I DROVE to work leh. Those who knows me well, i actually dun dare to drive wan. But now kena posted to such far punya hospital, what to do leh, need to force myself to drive oso lah...

First week in the hospital, i had orientation around the whole hospital all by myself loh since i m the only new PRP there. Had an overview on all the departments that i'll be send to.

SCARY!! OPD, A&E, ward pharmacy, ward supply... i've phobia to all these stations.

On the other hand, methadone clinic was interesting lah. Yea, my hospital got methadone clinic n PRP need to rotate n work there. Can die right?

My 2nd week has just ended lah, i m officially placed in GALENIKAL for 2 weeks loh. Hmm, one of the honeymoon stations lah cos nuttin much to do one. Sit there, pack creams, prepare ointments, lotions, help distribute the ubat for each ward loh... Basically like that only lah.

So, because we were quite free, sometimes we went over to A&E and help lah. But, me being the knowledgeless one, cant help much lah.

Seriously hoh, i really dun know lots of the drugs lah. Cant even tell the generic name of the drugs (the docs always write brand names on the Rx, idiot).

Shaun (both of us r in Galenikal) was saying that he actually go n hafal the brand name, generic name and function of those drugs. I think I need to do so also lah. If not, can die. During OPD, worse still lah.

OK, good thing abt HTAR= no on-call

BAD thing is

we have LUNCH CALLs and gotta work WEEKEND, NIGHT and SUPER NIGHT shifts.

LUNCH CALL= work during lunch hour either at OPD or A&E

WEEKEND shift= gotta work on Sat or Sun from 8am to 5 pm

NIGHT shift= after 5 pm, gotta stay back n cont working from 5pm to 10 pm

SUPER NIGHT shift= after 5 pm, go back and then come back and work from 10pm to 8 am all by urself, meaning u r the only pharmacist in the whole hospital at that hour lah.

FAINT~

for those who din kena HTAR, u r seriously damn blardy lucky... u still got L.I.F.E!

Outing with Joe & Eunice- Lunch @ Little Vietnam

Went to IMU yesterday to get the documents certified. Luckily Ms. Wong was free. actually a lil pai seh cos always find her to certify stuff only... hehe....

then, eunice and i went to midvalley. we were supposed to meet up with joe for lunch before he leaves (joe's leaving to Sabah this Sunday). walked to THE GARDENS cos we were early... went into Robinssons & Isetan. Overall, not bad lah the shopping mall. Would definitely go there for shopping (when there's Mega sales, lol).

meet up with joe around 12 pm and joe suggested Vietnamese food for lunch. i personally never tried it before cos non of my family members like it. we ended up in Little Vietnam since joe had tried it several times and it tasted quite good.

the appetisers, spring rolls

our drinks, leong fun with longan

joe's main course: beef stew with rice

eunice n i ordered this: cold vermicelli

the lunch was really nice and i would definitely go back again....

later after lunch, we went down to Jusco, wanted to look for cologne but ended up playing the arcade games. we tried the drum machine & joe managed to try train driving as well. muahaha...

after that, we headed to the top floor for bowling. oh, my first time bowling lah n i totally sux at it. of course, i scored the lowest points lah... hehe....

hmm, sounds like i'm the one who's leaving and trying to try all the new things....woohoo~

PAVILION

The newest shopping mall in KL, Pavilion.....

Went to Lot 10, Isetan today, so tot of checking out Pavilion....

Seriously, nuttin much. I mean, there's actually like nuttin there yet lah. So, advisable to go there some time later when most of the shops/boutique has open.

Front view of Pavilion. The left & right side of the building is still under construction.

The concourse area. There was a fashion show at tat moment. When the construction work's done, it seems that Pavillion can be connected to the KL Convention Centre via a bridge. Not bad eh...

After walking for a while, we went & hunt for food. Not much eateries r open yet. We decided to give this a try.

The interior of this jap restaurant.

Overall, the food was ok-ok lah.....

From my personal point of view, I might prefer KLCC to Pavillion lah... prob cos it was just a soft opening. Shall check it out again when most of the boutiques are open...

So, what's the next newest shopping place to check out??

It's gotta be THE GARDENS...... shall see if i've got time to "hang kai kai" or not....

P.S Anyone else who got Selangor for posting??

I think I need to do more good...

buat baik dibalas baik..... Hmmm, i need to do more good stuff coz felt like got lotz of jahat balasan happening on me....

KARMA!!

Posting.... got edi?

I'm sure by now, everyone would have know which state they r beeing posted too. I myself got Selangor la...

So, where r u guyz posted to??

p.s. Thanx Joe for getting the posting letter!!

Shopping TIME!!

Hello guys! Havent been blogging for quite a while. Hmm... everyone has been asking on MSN, 'so, what r u doing at home everyday?'.... well, i say 'BUMMING'. hahaha...

I suddenly miss Glasgow. Actually there's only 2 things that missed; the weather & shopping. Seriously, there's no way in KL or PJ whereby we could reach the shopping places by foot. EVerywhere u go, u need to drive there. Unlike back in Glasgow, if u feel like shopping, u can just walk there lah. On top of that, i miss brands like H&M, Primark & Debenhems. Always got good bargains over there. Sigh, I wanna shop in Glasgow, can?

Anyway, I've been loitering around at shopping complexes these days lah. Like those kiddies who doesnt like to go to school & prefer wasting their time at the fully air conditioned malls, yeah, I'm one of them now.

The only difference is that I really have nothing better to do.

Can someone kindly tell me what should I do while waiting to be posted?

Oh ya, btw, still havent got my posting letter yet. ('.')"'

Oh, so back to shopping malls, when u've got nothing to do, u surely go into those shops and check out their baju lah...

Then go fitting room n try try see nice or not lah....

Then somehow the baju will say "bring me home or u'll regret it".

And without u realising it, u're already at the cashier paying for the baju.

When u go home only did u realised that several pieces the blueish notes in your wallet has vanished.

Muahaha....

The above are some of the stuffs that i've got probably few weeks ago... Baby tee, some socks, a bag, earings & a dress. Btw, the dress was from the flea market at The Curve. Only costs RM 40. I think it's kinda worth it lah.... The uncle very nice & friendly summore let me bargain. It was originally RM 50....Hehehe...

Uncle, "sang yee heng loong".... MUahaha....

Focus Point optical @ Ikano SUX!

I think this story is kinda beneficial to most of us especially those involved in fields which provides services to their customers.

Went to the above optical shop this afternoon. Brought along 6 boxes of my Acuvue one-day disposable contact lens there as well. Had a feeling that my power has changed and hence would like to get the lenses changed.

My understanding was as long as the lens havent expired (my expires in 2011), then i'm allowed to change.

Actually those lense were bought & sent to me to Glasgow by my parents lah. They've bought them several times from the Ikano outlet as well as the Focus Point at 1 Utama. So, frankly speaking, they cant ingat those 6 boxes are fr which outlet but we still have the receipts from both outlets.
So, we went to the counter and ask the shop asst if we could change lah. He checked the receipt and say:

FP (Focus Point): Oh, the receipt is from 1 U outlet lah, so we cant change.... u must go back to that outlet & change lah

We: (Trying to explain that we cant ingat those lens r fr which outlet cos we did buy from both outlets before lah...) By any chance can u check from the bar code of the boxes whether if these stocks r from ur outlet?

FP: cannot lah...

Me: ( I'm like WTF! if u cant scan the bar code n check fr the PC, then what is the bar code for???)

FP: u see, u bought them when they were having promo of BUY 5 FREE 1... so one side of the flap from each box has been cut off lah... so we cant check the stock.

Me: (But there's no code number or anything on that flap except for the power n expiry date??? & again whats the bar code for?? perhiasan??)

So, the guy made my parents talked to another gal with the surname of TE_ (last alphabet is left anonymous)

TE_: Even if we can change for u , u need to wait lah... cos ur flaps are gone.... so we cant change our stock those with flaps for u lah. We gotta chage it with the dealer.

Parents: When FP is having promo, nothing was mention abt this 'not-being-able' to change thingy.... u only told us that as long as it hasnt expire, then can change... Now when wanna change, so 'ma-fan'....

TE_: dunno lah... it's memang like that... i've just changed for another client 4 boxes. summore because the flap of ur box is gone, u cant get the new ones in box ya... it's gonna be in loose form.

Mom: WHAT???!!??? here got 6 boxes(6x30=180)... so, we'll have 180 lens in plastic bag ar???

TE_: YES!

Me (standing at the counter): excuse me Mr, can i have the number of Johnson & Johnson (Acuvue is under Johnson & Johnson) ar?

The Mr: erm, can. but why ar?

Me: i wanna change these lens lah, but ur collegue say cant, summore in loose form. So, I thought i might as well deal directly with Johnson & Johnson loh.

Then, that b*tch a.k.a TE_ came towards the counter.

TE_: Give lah.... she wanna complain. Let her complain lah

I was farking pissed off at that time. What kind of blardy attitude is that???

Me: Excuse me! Why are accusing me?? I just wanna enquire further with Johnson & Johnson regarding this silly & troublesome way of exchanging the lens. When did I say I wanna complain??

TE_: ENQUIRE & COMPLAIN IS THE SAME!

Me: Enquire & complain is TOTALLLY DIFFERENT!! (I feel like bringing a dictionary and throw it to her)

We've got the phone number & i cant tahan & complained to the other guy Lawrence saying that I'm kinda pissed off with your colleuges attitude lah. What enquire & complain is the same???

The main mistake I'm trying to point out is the attitude of that gal. We, customers do not know how those dealer policy work lah & have no interest as well. in fact, it's not the customers duty to know abt it too. these kinda things involving the dealers should be dealt between the optical shop n dealer mah.

And when we asked for the dealers phone number, u as a professional optician/service provider should stopped us from doing that & tried your best to help us settle the prob mah. U think it's a very nice thing for customer to deal with the dealer meh? if we customers need to deal directly with the dealer, WHAT R U FOR?? for display??

being an optician, u're job's not just to sell frames & lens only lah. i think u should also provide good services mah. this kinda after-sales-service is kinda horrible lah. We walked away.

Then we went to the FP at The Curve cos my dad had his sunnies done over there & got some prob lah. So, the optician adjust a bit of the frame & everything ok liau. Then my dad asked her abt the lens lah... like we bought fr other outlet, the flap is gone, so can change o not lah. Guess what did the gal do??

the gal name Estee actually called the dealer. The dealer say can change even not bought from that outlet but must wait 3 weeks lah cos no stock. SUMMORE, they will come in BOXES!!!

U tell me lah, Focus Point at Ikano lousy o not???

Miss TE_, u dun even have the initiative to call up ur dealer & check n see whether can change and get them in boxes or not. Why others can help & u cant? Meaning, ur not efficient enuff lah.... summore damn LCLY there. Cheh!

Dim Sum @ EDEN, The Curve

50% off on all dim sums at EDEN!! It's HALAL!! Offer valid till 31st August!!

Came across this ad weeks ago, hence we've decided to give it a shot. Compared to the halal dim sum served at Istana Hotel, this one tasted way much better.

One important point to note; 50% off the price, 50% off the size!

The main entrance, located next to the donut shop, i think it's called Big Apple.

Siew Mai

Sam See dumpling

The fried stuffs.
Tak sempat take pics of others cos the moment the food reached the table, within one sec it's gone. Muahaha.

LYJ for dinner @ Sg. Buloh

Went to this restaurant for dinner. It's situated opposite a chinese school in Sg. Buloh.


Stir fried kai lan with chinese wine. It's nice.



Pei pa duck. The skin was yummilicious.
