First Day of Work

After so many months, I've finally put on back an uniform. This time round, I looking more like a student than a semi-senior nurse *rolling eyes* as the uniform looks very much like my student nurse's, except the "blue bibs".

I am now working with a pool of Peds and many wonderful staff. My manager is a very nice lady, maybe is a little bit too early to give comment now but I know I am right. The bonds are strong and they are all supportive! I reported to work on time today and spent most of my time with SSN Chua, a very patience, motherly senior who is doing her Deg at SIM; SEN Karen, a bubbly nurse who guides me how to give vaccines(to neonates!); SSN Maria, stern looking but nice nurse to work with. Basically I was stationed at Tx Rm, learning drug challenge.

After taking a break for an hour, I realised that the clinics aren't very busy for the afternoon session, maybe it is just on Monday. By the time I knocked off, I realised that I've not check my handphone for whole day! Had more than 8 missed calls and 3 messenges from Ben and friends. Oh dear, please do not disturb me while I am at work.

FYI, I DO NOT ENTERTAIN PHONE CALLS DURING

- my lunches /dinners, esp. when I am with my family

- at work esp. in the consult room as it reflects very badly on our image

- showering, my phone doesn't go to bathroom

- baking, phone doesn't look good with flour

BUT, I do read mails and you all may text me, I will surely reply (daily before 1030pm). So here is the happy wife blogging and reading her emails and browsing some of bakers' blogs, as her day time is fully occupied and dedicated to her very little patients.

Wow, I was a bit lost. This is the first time I'm being Tagged, thanks to Emily from Mimosa's Diary. Tried browsing a few pages to find out how to go about tagging and I'm more or less clear now.. -.-" Basically, I can share anything about myself but tag another 5 people .. here you go

The Meme rules:
1. Link to your tagger and post these rules.
2. Share 5 facts about yourself.
3. Tag 5 people at the end of your post and list their names (linking to them).

Five facts about myself:
1. I started baking since June 06, because I wanted to have cupcakes as my wedding cakes and I DID IT!!! Everyone brought home a little cupcake with a big smile!

2. I have not attended any baking classes before. I learn all the tips of cooking and baking from my lovely mum and get most recipes from fellow bloggers(they are really great!)and lastly, baking books(thanks to my doting husband).

3. I hope to change my $60 oven to a built-in OVEN. So I can bake a big cake for him and a turkey for 08 Christmas! Hubby said he will get one for me when our own place is ready - hopefully in July.

4. I really wish to have my very own pink fully-equipped kitchen(hubby said I'm in-charge for the kitchen)with all the beautiful and cute baking utensils and good bakewares.

I am a Part Time housewife

5 days/week

3 months assignment

Above $2.5k

Yup! The housewife got a job, not really job but let's call it an assignment. Received a call yesterday regarding this 'lobang', after much persuasion, Ben finally agrees to let me work to prevent me from growing mushroom.

This silly housewife actually went interview without bringing CV! *faint* After 15 minutes of chatting, I was told to come work on coming Monday! I was like "so soon?"... Well, I won't say having the extra income will help in household - Ben is still the sole breadwinner, but at least I can buy more baking tools and more tote bags and I will still continue to bake MORE as I can giveaway more cakes to my 'colleagues' !
