Finally is OVER!!!

Today is MSW 60th Anniversary Celebration aka "The Wedding". It is a big celebration organise by all the MSW in all hospitals/polyclinics. Me and a few colleagues whom we call ourselves wedding planners have been involved in the preparation for the past few months.

The experience is errr.... "horrible, terrible and unbearable!" I mean the process. It is not easy to deal with everyone especially most of them are bosses level. We small fry only take orders. But when there are too many bosses, you get confuse to which boss orders to listen to. And we need to chase people to do their work. That is something I really hate cos I don't know how to tell bosses to work.

Of course this is a learning experience and exposure to me. BUT it also tell me I am not cut out to deal with atas people. I don't understand why people cannot talk to each other properly and with sincerity. The "top down" kind of attitude is something I hate. And also expecting you to do all the "miscellaneous" things just because you do not belong to that "bosses category".

Seriously I do not mind running around but pls don't make me feel like a "maid". I feel so today when people ask me to look into "why there isn't any ladle on that bowl of dessert there?". For information, I am stage manager today NOT food manager. Best is that I haven't got time to see what is available on the buffet table so how I know if that bowl of dessert needs a ladle???

And the disappointing part is that this person did not say "thank you" to me. Oh yah, she never even bother to ask if I have recovered from my illness. Instead she sms me after the event to tell me what is MY responsibilities at this event and why I did not follow through. Well if you are not going to sacrifice your weekend afternoon to clear things pls dun expect me to do so too. And for infor, my boss gives me permission to go home.

Anyway these are some "miscellaneous" people that I got to work with. The impt people like the wedding planners are wonderful. We were the ones that endure all the arrows shooting across our heads. Thank you to my 3 other wedding planners for covering me when I was on MC. Also thank you to all colleagues for helping out today. You all have shown that CGH people are the ACTION people. Thank you very much and Happy 60th Anniversary!!!

Nearly die......

Yes I nearly die, not because of shingles but thanks to sports car GP and his wonderful medications. I got drug allergy to his expensive anti-viral medicine and super strong pain killers. Maybe he think that I have lived enough so is time for me to go or something.

Anyway I survive the allergy thanks to CMI A & E MO telling me that there is no alternative medicine to the anti-viral medicine. And I will not die if I just dun take any medicine!!! Basically she is just telling me that there is "no cure" and it was a 2 hrs wait just to listen to her "wonderful advice".

Went back to office this morning to see to the preparation for tomorrow wedding. Hiazz... Despite working in a hospital hor, I think my colleagues all very ignorant leh. Ms Wong keep saying that she feels itchy when I sms her. So I purposely hug her today. Hahaha.. to spread everything to her! And my boss ask if it is contagious! Hiazz...

Anyway thanks to gals for the birthday cake this morning. You all can have it since I have contaminated it. This will help you all get the MC that everyone wants. Hahaha.. I will always remember I got the old people disease to mark my BIG 29 :) Let's pray tomorrow wedding will go smoothly.

The mystery has been solved....

I have been having backache, leg pain etc since Sat night. Pain till cannot sleep kind. Initially thought I strain my muscle by doing nothing. Yah, being a lazy soul I did nothing but nuay in front of TV or computer. So seriously cannot think of a reason to strain my muscle.

As usual I refuse to see Dr unless really necessary. Went to buy Ketotop yesterday as recommended by Kath to be the best "koyu" in town. So good till our patients keep coming back to request for assistance as it is a retail item. Well obviously it was of no use.

The whole day I was in pain and couldn't walk properly. I have DL and TKK telling me that I fall under the high risk category for osteoporosis just because I am skinny. DL ask me to take gulcosamine and TKK ask me to take calcium. Typical healthcare workers, self-medicated and refused to pay for Dr.

Anyway I finally drag myself to my GP after work. Mainly because I realise that I got rashes on my leg. My mum guess that I have Shingles and she's right lah. My dear GP emphasize that I need a lot of rest. Hahaa.. that is the thing I want to hear. I will be on 2 days MC :) According to him, the disease is not infectious to adults. So DL so sorry can't fulfill our wish to play guitar hero at Aloha Loyang ;P

My dear Dr give me a big pack of medications. He end of by saying the medications are a bit costly but he will give me a better price. Machim like I am buying some things like that. It cost me $75 in total and that is after $12 discount. Yes, I have contributed to the maintenance of his sports car again. Both TYX and I know how CMI he is but we don't know why we still continue to support him.

Oh I must mention abt Queen of B. She was so worried that I would die or something when I sms her. Sorry to disappoint you, I am still alive and kicking. And you will still have to listen to me grumble when I get back to work.

To the wedding planners - sorry for being away despite our close deadline. But I promise to be back on Thursday to prepare for our wedding. Before that, pls leave me alone :)
