The reason I love my job!

     I just wanted to say how grateful I am that I am so blessed in my clinical sessions!! Yes, I WAS quite slow in my quotas for Year 3 and 4 but hey, somehow I’ve finished early in Year 5! Thank God, I feel like I'm witnessing a miracle in action.. Hehe.. (not forgetting, thank you, Gerv for starting off my endo quota and for helping me end my pedo quota… will buy you a gift soon!!! =p)

     Next, I want to show off by saying how the patients that I have mostly are so kind, compliant and nice in coming again and again faithfully for their dental treatments.. And I mean it when I said nice since one of my patient travels from Perak weekly for treatment…. So thankful I wanna cry… This patient THEN gave me this to thank me for my good job… I’m supposed to thank her, not the other way round!! But yes, I kinda did quite a good job on her… LOL…. Undeserved love I tell you....

Feel real bad taking this from her.... It's an engraved pen k?? So kind of her..

     And then there’s my patient who gave me ang pows even when I’ve already finished treatment on him, who gave me one bagful of fresh organic vegetables from his garden, one patient who gave me 叉烧， 烧肉， one patient who gave me fruits whenever she comes, another who brings breakfast for me knowing I skip it sometimes etc etc etc.. AND then there are those who keep asking me to go out with them so that they can pay for my meal.... Sometimes, just a simple thank you from them is like many bells ringing from heaven to us, and my patient overdo it by showing me their gratitude with gifts and gestures.... I am so BLESSED, what more could I say?? My patients are so kind really.... Truly these are the people who formed the reason why I will continue to serve in the dental field and push on no matter what comes my way... I truly thank them for making me feel so loved.. oh-gosh-so-thankful-I-wanna-cry-again... Lol... Once more, thank you everyone!!! (patients, good lecturers, close friends and beloved family members are ALL included in making my dental student life so wonderful and enjoyable!!!)

PS Hmm, is this one way that says.... "I am MADE to be a dentist"?? Hahaha.... Just kidding, I think my sincerity in treating my patients and my AWESOME communication skills (or as my friend puts it, my super-geng persuasion skills) added much brilliant marks in clinics!! ROFL... Yes, it's bragging but hey, a gal has some rights to make herself feel good sometimes right?? righhhhhht?? RIGGGGGGHHHHHHHHTTTTTT??!!!! LOL!! Till next time, adios!!

Nearing the BDS finish line..

  Remembered posting this photo in my previous post entitled ‘Final bend’.. Now that I’m speeding past that bend, I can see the finish line just right ahead!!!

Optimistic mode!!! I’m going to finish this real soon!!!

     Anyway, where should I request for my 2 years posting?? KL-though it’s almost impossible to get?? Melaka-which is nearest to KL and is hard to get too?? Pahang- where my relatives and close friend are and is also hard to get?? Kedah-though it’s scary since I know the specialist here?? Or should I just give up and fill in Sabah or Sarawak?? Lol… Am thinking on going “eenie, meenie, miny, moe” soon… And tomorrow is the SPA/ KKM joint interview… Argh.. so scary…. I’d have to don on a baju kurung and TRY to converse in Bahasa Melayu the best that I can.. I hope I look smart and sound smart to the interviewers.. Best yet, I hope I AM smart in front of them.. Oh, the horror if I stammer or faint in front of them!! LOL… Pray and wish me all the best!!!

     On another more personal note, I can’t seem to stay unaffected anymore. I think it’s time I hide inside my fortress and ignore my surroundings again. Lock news and gossips out as I successfully did for the past few years… LOL… Sounds pathetic yet safely so…. What with clinical quotas going on and our clinics coming to an end, ppl are getting more and more desperate and tend to start thinking only of themselves. Which is fine if they don’t step on my toe but….they did.. Argh.. Really hate that.. Especially since they made innocent bystanders get hurt in their line of fire, no, not innocent bystanders, those I’m referring to are more of a law enforcer/ emergency medical team member/ fire-fighter role who sacrifices for others…. If you read this, I hope you know who you are and how grateful I am to you… But then, come to think of it… I might thread on other ppl’s toes accidentally or with intent so…. Sigh…. It’s such a cruel give and take world!! I really hope all this end soon and we can all graduate smoothly and lay by the beach of somewhere exotic as a WHOLE class going on our trip together!!!
