Happy New Year!!

Is another brand new year:> brand new begining for everything:> I didn’t do a lot today, no new year bash..Wati is at work.. But I went to a dinner gathering with Sandy and friends, came home before midnight, watched firework from my window, quite a nice view actually, coz i stayed on 14th floor,i can see london eye from far where Londoners are having the new year bash there right now:> nice to just stay infront of the window and enjoy the view, firework every where(",) too bad my camera not very good, can’t shot too far:> Anyway, happy new year to every one and have a wonderful year ahead:>

The day that i have been waiting for: My last day at SL4, is not that i can’t wait to leave, but i always wonder how will i feel when the time comes..well, I feel sad, and lost may be? I don’t know, suddenly I feel that I have not had enough of the good life in SL4, i will miss the sleeping time when I am on night:> I will miss my friends company, I will miss my patients, doesn’t matter they are rude or not.. because very soon most of my patient won’t be talking to me..hehe…and i will have to readjust all over again..start from zero again..

Same time ofcourse i feel excited:> just like how i feel when i leave 5b and singapore:> I know i will have to learn plenty of things and i have to cope wheater i like it or not, and better still i will be small fly once again and let people boss me around:>hehe, how cool it is:">but, hey challenge man:>

So, there goes my last day, finished at 7pm, said thank you to every one, kissed all my friends good bye, hold back my tears and walked out of the ward.. I will be back ofcourse, but I know it will never be the same again..(",) well, SN Wong, stop being sentimental and move on!!You are only moving one floor down..deh:>

yap yap, i woke up at 10am by Sarah to look out of the window:> and yes!!!!is snowing!! I have been waiting for this snow since yesterday, and at last!!!!!!!!!! but just too bad all my kakis were at work, so i put on all my gears and took my camera, walked  to the park near by to take pictures, hahaha…….heard that there will be more snow tomorrow:> can’t wait till then:>

HO HO HO.. merry christmas..

I had lunch at Sarah’s place, we had roasted chicken, potatoes and parsnips.. we went to work after, n guess wat, we have got only 3 patients!! hahaha…we basically spend the rest of our afternoon watching tv programmes, eating chocalates:>we even played cards..hehe.. and our dinner was provided by our kitchen=D well well..What else you can ask for,is my first and last christmas at SL4:>

It was my day off yesterday, went for a early morning walk By the river with James and carol..we started with feeding the seagull by the river side( despite of the global warning of bird flu:>) , and then walk along the river towards chiswick( pronounce as chi-sick).. passed by Hammersmith bridge and end at Barnes..Is a long walk, about 1 hour, saw lots of thing along the way, didn’t realize my area can be so nice and peaceful:> will definately do it more often, and we shall try different route next time:>

As every one knows I am going to start my brand new career journey next year (ooooooo…….):>, which i am really looking forward to, reason being i am at where i am for a long time, and move to a more specialize area is what i has been wanted to do all these time:>

Anyway, my friends decided to get us together before i leave, and they call it "Wong’s leaving cerebration party":> I was kind a sad because they call it "CEREBRATION" :< (but hey guys .. i know you people has been crying secretly since i decided to leave right? haha…)

we started the night by had a drink at  William Morris bar, after a few drinks, we decided to hit the Chinese all you can eat and karaoke restaurant, it was really a great fun, especially the singing session,  people can never guessed that we are a bunch of nurses:> everybody just went crazy, all the out of tune songs and out of control dance movement:> and it was an open karaoke,  the TV is at the open area, that means those"fortunate" customers had a chance to enjoy the music with us:> well, i am sure they enjoyed us as much as we enjoyed theirs HAHAHA…., but at some point i think the waiter did looks a bit worry:>

On a whole it was really a great night out!! We had so much fun and laughter, and here I am, started to get all sentimental about it, i feel glad that I can move on, but I do feel sad that i have to leave all these awesome people behind, although there are things that i don’t like about the ward,  but this is my first ward in London, and they have been really nice to me, and i really enjoy working with all the level 4 and level 5 staffs:> I hope they enjoy working with me too, (well, i am sure they do:> haha…)

Well, till then, I shall work and perform as usual till my last day, and enjoy each other company:>

all of us again:>

WHAT DO YOU DO? When doctor tell you, you have got only 18 months to live?

I don’t know. Sad? Cry? Why me?? What have I done? What have i NOT done? Oh, plenty!!

Any regrets? YES !! Hell lots of regrets!! I should have gone for check up earlier.. I should have eaten according to the guide lines..I should really have spend more time with my love one..I should have save more money..I shouldn’t have eaten that much of preserved food,  may be thats the reason why I left with 18 months…

Any QUESTIONS? Hell YES!! Why didn’t you tell me before i am at risk? Why didn’t you pick it up during the last appointment? WHY?? WHY OF ALL PEOPLE ME?? Things happen for a reason? What bloody reason could it be? You ask me to think positively? Hey hey!! DON’T you dare,  don’t even say That infront of me-I will give you a punch right on to your face!!

WHAT DO YOU DO? When you heard Dr telling other people that they only have 18 months to live?

I also don’t know.. May be they are lucky- atleast they know the date and can plan ahead? But same time they can be so unlucky, sitting around counting down for that 18 months, might as well don’t know and live on happily? HOW? Tell them to think positively? " Is OK, it can be worse.." How worse can it be? Who am I to judge?THIS IS THE WORSE FOR THEM!!

All i can do -is to sit with them and listen quietly..and think quietly, what do I do if I am the one?

For those who only left with 18 months, please be strong and live on…

For those who already finished their 18 months, may you rest in peace…

For all of us who doesn’t know, we might not even have 18 months..so, what would you do?

I would like to recommend this children book to every one-The Flanimal!!

I Still remember the very day that Wati n me discovered thIs book at Boarders Oxford street, we stood there and were laughing non stop while going thru the book, and we were hooked since then:>

This is a book written by Ricky Gervais(www.rickygervais.com), it contents all the funny creatures that he created out of his brilliant but rather twisted mind:> seriously…is hilarious!! I like the way he described the creatures-is funny and sooooooo MEAN!! Also it reminds me that there are people around me who is having the similar characteristics! huahuuaahhhh…….

So guys,is cool- check it out !!

Here are some of my favorite characters:>
