its been a few days since i started my job in a vet clinic..
i have never expected i would step back into a vet clinic after the bad internship experience. well, all i could say was really by chance la. aniway, seriously speaking.. i really realise how lousy the previous clinic is! dun call it a clinic, its more like a making money business for them. i've managed to learn more just within two days of working at this new clinic, compared to SIX months at the stupid internship.
all isn't as smooth sailing as well over at my new job. coz we're in a very critical period now where both the old staff are leaving, and they're trying hard to train me and another girl to take over everythg.. and i literally mean EVERYTHING. from helping in consults to taking orders for stocks to watever have to be done there. goodness, the other girl have no experience in this line. and though she started work for weeks already, she is like slower in learning compared to me. as in i at least have some knowledge of all the medicine and procedures, though most of them are new to me as well. i'm still trying hard to adapt to the environment, the people and all.
but for today i keep having the tot of quiting. i find it too stressful. too many things piling over at the same time. it like i'm new, but the other girl is even more lost den me. and when the vet ask questions, some are so basic that i find it lame just to ans but it may be tough for the girl. in bout a week or so we'll both be on our own.. i can't imagine how can we two survive like that! i find it the toughest when the ppl there treat both of us like idiots. they'll be saying like, "how can i actually make them understand".. but the point is, i know wat they're saying.. doesn't mean we two are new you put us together as one. i find it hard to learn when our pace are different. its so stressful for me!
Maybe i'll quit if i find a higher paying job.. heeheee~~

Below is an extract from an interesting article..
Fidgeting may, in fact, be the key to why some people simply don’t gain weight, no matter how much they eat. At the Mayo Clinic, sixteen volunteers each pigged out on an extra 1,000 calories a day for two months. All were limited to minimal exercise. They gained an average of ten pounds, but there was a range from two to sixteen pounds. What accounted for the difference between subjects?
How much they fidgeted.
On average, fidgeting burned up a third of the extra calories. Those who gained the least fidgeted the most.
So ppl, lets do away with all the tedious exercises and lets start moving!
Rock on~~

you'll know you're old when you start receiveing money given by the government. haha i've been waiting loh, now finally its our turn to get money too! it shows that my batch ppl all old liao..
well, just came back from sarah's birthday party. loads of food, nice gathering and lots of fun.. looking at the batch of us growing older is kinda scary..haha. it seems like yesterday when everyone is still one of those little kids running around the church. Now we're all uni students, poly grads, working, or NSmen.. wat a great change.
yesterday was online surfing.. den recalled quite a number of events dat happened in the past. find that life is just so interesting.. we all have our very own life's journey to travel, paths may cross sumtime sumwhere along the journey.. though it may only be a brief moment at the point of the crossroad, whoever the person may be had already left his or her footprints in your life. when you look back at all the prints along your path, some you might remember, others you might have some impression, and there may be a handful that you've totally forgotten. but every print tells a story, and every one there's a lesson to learn. I just wanna thank god for those who have left prints along my path.. and also pray that the prints i have left in others' path is something worth remembering...
