Just trying to get by…
Posted by: nadyaruzz on: April 26, 2009
One minute motivated, the next you felt the walls were closing in on you.
And Stacie Orrico’s More to Life kept on playing in my head.
I felt dizzy looking at the ventilator settings, going S and then A and C. Green, red, yellow… like the traffic lights at the hospital junction. I stood beside the patient [...]
Call me emotional but…

“The mother’s very good… feed her child with Pediasure. If I’m the parent, I would just give him (the child) condensed milk… coz he has no future.”
That quote came from a specialist during our CPD this morning. And the audience laughed in response.
Am I the only who was disgusted by his statement? Can that statement [...]
Dilemma…
Posted by: nadyaruzz on: February 24, 2009
It’s hard to believe that I have been working my permanent job for 5 months already. Time sure flies. Soon my colleagues will be transferred (JKNS have this policy that you can’t work in your respective hometown except during your provisional year) to God-knows-where, while I will probably be stuck here in Kuching. I’m still [...]
Gaining Gravity
Posted by: nadyaruzz on: December 31, 2008
My life has been turned upside down during my on-call days last week. Now I’m slowly recovering my gravity at home (Yes, home!).
Last week, I managed to
- turn myself into a garbage scavenger at 2 in the morning
I lost my pda, and while tracing my steps back to where we last saw the damn thing, [...]
Turning 180 degrees – Part 3
Posted by: nadyaruzz on: December 8, 2008
I went to Bau last Saturday for community service. It was a new experience reaching out to the villagers there. I was surprised that they still don’t have a proper water supply. Their supply, as claimed, came from the mountain. So since it has been raining quite heavily lately, their water supply is always disrupted, sometimes [...]
Turning 180 Degrees (Part II)
Posted by: nadyaruzz on: December 4, 2008
A pair of innocent eyes looked at me, observing me closely. He didn’t cry, he didn’t lie down, like the other sick children. He just watched my movements from his bed, as though he knew exactly what I was doing, reading his case. Damn. I always avoided feeling attached to patients, but I can’t help [...]
Work sucks…
Posted by: nadyaruzz on: November 29, 2008
You know, usually at this time of the year, I would finish my exam papers, which can only brought me to one thing… holidays. But unfortunately, now that I’m working, I have to drag myself out of bed everyday to face yet another hectic day in the hospital.
Worse, my first on-call week landed on the christmas [...]
Turning 180 degrees…
Posted by: nadyaruzz on: November 23, 2008
I love to observe people. I love talking to strangers, and getting what I call a ’sneak peek’ into what their lives may be. So it’s no wonder that how I can last working part time in retail stores during my student’s years. Now that I’m working in the hospital, it is one of the highlights [...]
I’m doing ok…
Posted by: nadyaruzz on: November 4, 2008
So, how’s work?
That is like a standard question from everyone who rang me or nudged me on the net.
Okay la.
Standard question, standard answer. Haha…
It surprises me that a lot of people, including doctors and nurses, do not know what the scope of job of a hospital pharmacist is. We are involved in various departments. In outpatient, [...]
Posted: Sarawak ^o^
Posted by: nadyaruzz on: September 16, 2008
A lot of people asked me… Well, actually, some of them asked me, while others mostly just hysterically shrieked, why THE HELL do you choose Sarawak? One of them went all the way to add, ARE YOU NUTS?! And I, like a strangely deluded wacko, just smiled, showing my caffeine-stained teeth.
Truth is, I am still asking myself the [...]
