Lovely and Meaningful

Got this poem from my boss...

When things go wrong, as often as they do, when in the sea of life you swim, the tide is all against you. when the mountain you climb looks steep with no obvious end in sight when nothing you do at all ever seems to be right; fight on, fight on with all you might, hang on tightly in there, till there is a change in tide.
when you wish for bright sunshine, and the rain comes pouring through, when the much needed break always seems to evade you, when nightmares persist to haunt, no matter what you do, when all your prayers go unheard and everything seems in vain, climb on, climb on with all your might; endure the endless pain till ambition's peak is in sight.
the tide will always turn, the mountain has to peak, the sun will definitely shine through darkness, however bleak, nightmares will surely fade away as soon as there is light of day, and if deep within us we find, there is hope and peace of mind, confidence and direction will soon follow and success won't be far behind....

Farewell Dinner

Today, 29 May 2006 will be a memorable day for me… My official last day in the department of Anaesthesia before I venture into a new era. It has been three years and nine months in anaesthesia department. Initially I was not really into joining anaesthesia, but as there was shortage of servicing medical officers that time, I had to join the department for minimal of a year before I can ask for transfer to pediatric which I intended to take up initially. Now thinking back, I've not make a wrong choice.
In this department, all the servicing medical officers are like brothers and sisters. With the strong bonding between the medical officers and the Specialists, making this department a unique one. Even thought there were ups and downs, we did sail thru and comfort each other… and that's why leaving this department making me feel sad…
I did remember when I first joined the department, I was just a baby, as the head of department said. Crawling and learning… then I was put on call solo after 4weeks. It was tough and scary… scare of failed intubation, failed spinal, high spinal blockade, laparotomy and other trauma cases… I do admit that I am bit paranoid. I used to be sleepless the day before I on call.

Now looking back those things making me realized, life has to go on…

Well, had a farewell dinner with my fellow colleagues and specialist. And not to forget my favorite MA, Ash Burn. It was a wonderful dinner…

And to thank those GA nurses, ICU nurses, thank you for all those years.
For my beloved colleagues, LT, Laughing Gas, Propofol, Restman, Ms 'B', Ms 'K', Ms 'S' and Teoh. Thank you for sharing all those years together. I do hope everyone has a fruitful years ahead, healthy and wealthy too.

A big thank you!
