Its been quite some time since I last wrote.
I've been trying to wonder why. Was it because i am too busy with my school life or have I gotten lazy? Been feeling exhausted recently and perhaps its due to attachment, mondays to fridays were filled with attachment being AM or PM shift, saturdays are filled with NDP rehearsals and sunday being my rest days, often have stuff going on.
Etc : Attended the gala premiere of 'At Cafe 6', a new movie that is coming out on 14july which is this thurday!
Thank you to shaun for inviting me along to catch this movie, much appreciated!
Taken during my first NE show where these whole bunch of people and i went to usher Roysth school to stadium for NDP.
Been caught up with loads of stuff, events, school. And i wish to still find time to rest and just chill. Its just the first day of school for the term and its horrifying to know that next week is the commencement of class tests already. With that being horrifying, whats worse is the presentation that i have this friday, not to mention next week as well. It just seems like time is not enough for me to finish up whatever I have in plan.
Some of you might have known that i was hospitalized. Basically, i was diagnosed with Gastroenteritis (Inflammation of the stomach and intestines), vomiting and diarrhoea seems to be the most frequent thing that i was doing. And as you can see from all these vomiting and diarrhoea, of course i got severely dehydrated. And thats not the worse, my whole body was weak to the point that i couldn't stand up by myself without the risk to fall down again. My legs just couldn't hold the weight of my body at all.
As i was in school, my teachers felt that i really needed to go to the hospital for treatment due to the fact that my blood pressure was going really low and my heart rate went to about 200 which is really high and abnormal.
Yes, I was admitted that very day as i had to be on drips. As it was a friday, i am very honoured that my bunch of classmates/really good friends cabbed over to the hospital straight after class ended. They wanted to tag along to the hospital when the ambulance arrived by due to the test we had and lessons, they had no choice but to stay in school. I can't ask for better friends like them.
I was in the hospital for 5 days, although the doctors felt that i needed to stay longer as my body was still really weak when i left, some of my friends were really kind to come and visit me a couple of times during my time in the hospital, bringing me food thou i was Nil By Mouth. When i could finally eat, yall brought even more stuff for me to eat :D. Very much appreciated, and you guys know who you are.
Of course i had to have a photo during my stay in the hospital.
I also treated my stay in the hospital as an experience as many of you might know that i am a student nurse. With this stay in the hospital, i get to experience what my patients are experiencing during their stay in the hospital thus i was able to relate to them. The countless amount of fluids that are pumped into me, not being able to eat for so many days, countless needles pricks for blood tests and to insert the intravenous cannula for the drips.
The hospital stay was real boring due to the fact that i was under such heavy fluids and my body was too weak to move around the hospital, so 24/7 of my time was spent on this very bed unless im out for procedures or toilet. Boy was i glad to finally get out after 5 days.
In total, i missed about 2 weeks of school for the term due to MCs and hospitalization leave, so you can see im struggling so badly with my studies by trying to catch up on the stuff that i have missed out. In poly, missing one lessons is equivalent to mission a whole lecture worth of topic, and that is ALOT, making me even busier than before as i have to spend extra time to study.
And yea, back to reality, back to school.
This is just kind of a little update on my life to tell y'all that im not dead yet haha. Perhaps i should share with you guys on my trip to Paris a couple of weeks back, but i'll have to see if time permits due to the fact that as i am writing this post, im falling asleep, thats how tired i am.
Signing off is me, Jia Min, have a great night ahead! :D
