Looking for helper!

Who is interested to work with me in the hospital? I need a hand to help me collect sample when i am away to uni for my molecular works. My colleague is going to leave in 2 weeks time, i shall return to my usual working hours, sit in the office to wait for patient to come and get sample. That isn't a good thing for me, from my 6 months experience i can tell that patient just don't come if you purposely wait for them, they will only come when you are away (to uni, while picnic or while you're sleeping)!!! My nightmare will be back again, because i can be called anytime when i am running the gel. Ok, what should i do? Of cause is to take out my car key and rush to GH (30-40 mins drive) from uni. If i don't go GH immediately, patient won't be given any medication while waiting for me to collect the blood (he will die!). If i go just like that, leaving my gel or any lab work abandoned there, do you think it is possible? And sometimes i even worry that i may run into an accident or caught by police, because i ever break my record to reach GH from uni in 20 mins time just because of the patient! That's my situation now. Who can help me?

I can tell you all the benefits working with me:

1. I am friendly and helpful. My colleague only work here for 1.5 months (while helping me spin blood, most of her time is to prepare her own proposal to do Masters in somewhere else), i still share all the knowledge i have in that project to her.
   
2. I won't discriminate, jealous any race, gender, age group of people.
   
3. I am honest, and i won't backstab anyone.
   
4. I can give you snacks, homemade bakeries and fruits from home, sometime
   

And some benefits working in hospital just like me:

1. You can have an exciting life
   
2. You can learn many things, even you are just here for 1.5 months
   
3. You can access to doctors and nurses so easily, and if you have heart attack, no need to wait for ambulance, because the cardiologist is just next door of you
   
4. You have a chance to travel and to attend workshop/conference (government is very kind to give training for the staff)
   
5. You can know many people
   
6. You can have tea time anytime
   
7. You can have free masks and free Influenza vaccine here
   

Lastly, i am serious, whoever of your friends/colleagues/relatives, who are in Kuching looking for temporary RA job. Please contact me, really. Thanks!

Thoughts for youth

Got this from my Ang Moh colleague, i think is nice to share it with you all.

“Young people need compassion and guidance, not obscure mysticism.

Remember that you are always your own person. Do not surrender your mind, heart or body to any person. Never compromise your dignity for any reason.

Maintain your health with sound diet, hygiene, exercise and clean living. Don’t engage in drugs or drinking.

Money is never more important than your body and mind, but you must work and support yourself. Never depend on others for your livelihood.

Choose your friends and living situation carefully, for they will influence you. Find a mentor you can trust, one who can answer your every question, but never give up responsibility for your own life. No one lives your life for you.

A good education is always an asset.

Emotions are transitory and are not a good way to make decisions.

Every day, you must make decisions. Everything you do will have irrevocable effects upon your life. Before you go down any path, consider carefully. Rivers very rarely reverse course.

Know evil, but do not do evil yourself. Remember, there is a way out of the delusions of life.”

From Deng Ming-Dao, 365 Tao: Daily meditations (1992) 239 – Youth – Nian Qin

Puppies update (5-12 weeks)

Start of August

A busy month. Because i am very unprepared so i am not sure whether i can get my reagents and things ready before mid september for my training. Sigh.. gonna be more tough when really want to involve myself in research life.

Btw, early august and in this week, everyday scolded by my crazy manager. I don't know what happen to her, but she is just so bad mood that she liked to scold me anytime she felt want to scold people. Monday she asked me to shut my mouth when i was trying to help my new colleague to explain to her about my colleague's problem. Tuesday, she asked why i didn't off aircon on night time after finish work. I said i off and make sure everything off before i go back, she said i didn't listen and obey. Wednesday, when i just reach my office from UNIMAS and about to go for my lunch, she asked why i left my poster inside the room, "You thought that room is your rubbish room ar!". Ok fine, then afternoon i have a chat with a vendor about the equipments i bought from him. After the meeting, she came over to me again " I told you many times, this is your responsibility to on the aircon on daytime, off the aircon on nightime.. why just now you so happily talked with Mr xxx, why you never realized to on the aircon. i don't care, if the aircon didn't on, and the freezer beeps again (because of temperature rise), then your samples spoil, so i don't care" Siao one.. do you think because of the aircon didn't on, the -20 freezer temperature will rise and spoil your samples?

Let me explain, because the -20C freezer was beeping at night time due to the ice blockage inside the freezer compartment. So she thought it is due to the heat from the room temperature (you see we're 365 days summer, so it is very hot everyday). She then decided to on the aircon on daytime to avoid the freezer from beeping, and off the aircon in night time (because night time not so hot mah). She appointed me to take this responsibility. Ok, i admit i didn't really obey her (sometimes i forgot, sometimes i think not necessary), but what's the point that she talked about this and that everyday, when she already put on the notice to tell everyone? She purposely wait for me to on the aircon ar? even i wasn't in office this whole morning?

Weird lady. Siao Po!
