Nothing pretty much happening this week... My juniors are having their last week of school. Everyone is rushing to beat the clock. Good thing my dear sis can pull thru... SZ and DL also cleared, just waiting for the remaining few recalls next coming GPM term. As expected, some of them got the "STOP" sign flashed in front of them now... People like YX and KY are on the list i heard. That brings me to the point of graduation from Dental School... Doesn't mean that u can graduate on time, u are good... Those who stayed back are mostly not because they cannot do things. THEY CAN!!! But the external factors which we can't control held us back. I am speaking for all those who didn't make it on time and for myself. Sometimes i really wonder, is a 4yr course long enough to prepare us to go into the real world??? I really wonder... Come to think of it, to get my license to practise is merely a few booklets of paper and some test questions. All i need is to make sure i pass the paper and WALA!!! I get the Dr to my name. But then again, our course demands alot and the exams is not easy to pass. Got an oversea grad who was practising in San Franciso for dunnoe how many years, she took the re-exams with us... Couldn't get it on the first round. !!! For a trained dentist and failing the paper, that tells u our standards in putting people in the front line. Finishing saying that, i personally think that i am still a green horn out there. There are so many things we do not have the training for, but we have to make decisions on our own... Went for a Medical Alumni Dinner, one of the private GP offered me a ride home. We were talking about a newspaper article one month ago, about a mother not wiling to pay for a scaling treatment and complained that the dentist was not doing a good job. It's not fair for me to say who's right or wrong. But i personally encountered stains that are so stubborn, no matter how much force i use, it just stay there... Ordinary folks out there do not understand a lot of things that goes inside the oral cavity, but to educate them is a bit out of point. But to educate the operator on handling such patient can be useful. A 5yr course wouldn't be too bad... We have more time and hence more exposure to patient management. Most of us spend time rushing through things and never appreciate the beauty of patient management. That i learn a lot from CCL... He mention "Don't treat the patient like ur oscar, the patient is NOT!"... It really reflected my patient handling... When u really apply proper management techniques to patients, the after-effects are really amazing. Maybe they can add this module into GPM, have practical sessions... =) Just a suggestion.
Didn't touch on my WOW for some time... Not getting bored of it, just that i got other things in mind. Got LHS's alumni powerpoint to do, KC and ES video to do, some other personal matter which i am trying to solve, and as always, $$$ matters... The powerpoint is history coz the alumni dinner was yesterday, only left the video which is going to take me some time... Got to concentrate otherwise i won't be able to finish...
Ask my internet cafe boss to take away my weekday shifts, coz i got to attend meetings, functions and soon enough, training courses soon... Can't afford to spend time at the cafe anymore. With those days made available, i feel less tired now... Kind of like want to stop working there liao. Just waiting for her to sack me, or close down the shop... I dun have enuff weekends to do things. Last time i thought i dun need, now i sense the need of having the weekends free...
Kind of realised i am afraid to spend money... Haha, don't come and tell me you can help me spend... LOL... ALthough i am capable of spending on things, there's a force stopping me... Maybe being very very poor during student days made me have the phobia... Even things which i have planned to buy, i couldn't bring myself to buy it... =( Not saying i have a lot of money lah, but i have a certain level of spending power which i am not utilising... Went out with JL today made me realised this. Maybe i should just go buy things, just spend some money... Maybe...
Got a msg from Nokia. My N7650 is officially dead. I know i got to change a new phone, but there are phone numbers and impt stuffs inside the phone which i wan to retrieve and keep. The news of the `death' of my phone really hit me hard. Made me realised i am still not able to let go some things which i thought i did. A lot of question marks now... Still got my trusty N8850 with me... Been with me for more than 6 yrs now... I let it go from some time, and now i went back to it. "旧爱还是最美" they say, quite true...
