"
the day ended early for me" - 15 april. i must emphasize what
that means is that i will sleep before 12am. i usually sleep at 4am.
continuing, i've failed to mention that last friday, 15 april, my ingenious
brother, fractured his wrist while playing basketball with friends in school, leading to me and my parents spending 2 hours at the children's emergency of nuh. yes, he is still categorised under children. *bleahz* say he young he still reflutes us. want his independence, freedom, privacy and blah blah blah. all the headaches for parents that comes with 16-yr-olds. =(
and so today after doing some barang barang shopping at choa chu kang's lot 1, drove him to nuh to wait for another 2 hours once again as he was feeling discomfort in his wrist. there was supposedly a follow-up review of his wrist this morning, but somehow or rather, he didn't receive the call and by the time i called (11 am today) them, the appointment (9 am today) was already over. *geez* and the nearest appointment slot is next tuesday, 26 april. kaos... so long. by that time, his wrist also don't know how le. =S
i find that they are so highly inefficient. last friday, my brother checked-in at
4.30pm and we left only at
11.30pm (me & my parents went over only at 9.30pm as dad had to send some of his overseas staffs whom were here on a holiday to the airport in the evening, i ended up machiam tour-guide telling his staffs where to get their gst refund, check-in and the likes of it, "dad, i demand my wages!"). thats a whooping
7 hours. i mean i can understand they attend to those that are critically ill. but i find that they can move faster right!
like today, they also take so long can (though not as long but bad enough lor). when we went, there was no patients at the waiting area. one patient (same left fractured arm, indian boy - this shows how noti boys are can, all the horse plays) receiving treatment inside the room. then we wait wait wait. along came another patient (quite serious, delirious condition, chinese little girl but look like chinese little boy till the chinese little girl's ntuc working mom was telling the other fractured arm indian boy's dad that 'her daugther something something' in her smattering english) being wheeled in. then we wait wait wait. and thats all what.
further the indian boy's arm was already casted by the time we got there. i really don't understand why we had to wait so long. there were like 3 doctors on duty walking around. there were 6 nurses on duty sitting around. and there were 0 other patients milling around. *grrrrrrr*
i know la. i'm the usual singapore-lang complaining and whining - want good service and don't want to pay good price. because you must be thinking if i don't want to wait can go private hospital's a & e right. heh...
anyways, heng i went to the library to get myself yet
another romance book when i did my barang barang shopping earlier lor. so at least time passed less painfully for me. i've already finished the whole book (just nice) while i was there.
well, that means, off to the library tomorrow i go to get yet yet
another romance book to keep my time occupied in between commuting and waiting. hur hur...
oh yes, must remember dinner with
rowena tomorrow. though i just met her on friday but we agreed on dinner initially. the lunchie was a kinda impromptu thingy because i was in the area. flew her aeroplane on monday. getting sooper pissed at me already. i always cancel her last minute. =P
