Only one word to describe my day....interesting.
Went to IMH with Sita todae n as usual, we got lost for awhile. We didnt knoe where we were heading to actually but luckily it was the right way. So by the time we reach the hospital, frm far we could see a pool of white uniform students hanging arnd at the lobby.


Orientation was boring. Almost 3/4 of the day we were sitting in the lecture hall listening to a lady yakking. Then after tat, we were broken up into our different wards n were pushed to other instructor to continue with the yakking. I was most excited abt gng to my ward. So before we were brought there, most of us were like making fun n mimicking the ppl we were gng to meet later. Once we stepped into the ward, ALL of us were in total confused state, dumfounded, n frightened. A woman was shouting straight at us....one of them threw peanuts at us while our back was facing them.....another woman was throwing rags around n screaming some unknown language....another lady was trying to drink water frm a cup while jumping around. Now do u get the idea. It's totally different from wat u think it is. U might think that crazy people will only talk to the walls, to the fans, to the chairs, to the air. BUT NO!! They haf other hobbies too. Then while our instructor was giving us some instructions, a plump lady wif grains of rice stuck around her mouth came up to her n started crying. she said "i'm pregnant. i dun wan to be pregnant..i'm pregnant...". She was even holding onto her tummy. The funny thing is, she do haf a bloated tummy, so i guess tats y she thinks she's pregnant.


So my instructor tried to convince her tat she's not pregnant, after a while, somewhere around the corner, i heard another cry saying she's pregnant too. Really man...when u go into the ward, u just couldnt stop smiling n if u weren't in ure nursing uniform, ppl would haf thought tat ure one of them. For the remaining 1 and half hr, we just interact n play some games wif the patients. When u talk to one patient, i can bet u tat u dun ever wan to leave coz u just wan to listen more of wat they can tell u. I talk to this one lady, i ask for her name n she says she's a princess from Japan. She's waiting for her prince to come down to put the ring on her finger so that she can go and see other prime minister n slap their face. Then she says that her mother is the queen. She ask me who's the princess who recently comitted suicide. I said it was princess ajinomoto. Then she goes "AAAAH YES" like as if she knew her n that they use to be good frens last time before she stole her boyfriend. I was really entertaining myself.....


But hey, dun think that these ppl are stupid. Some are even more smarter than us. There was this auntie my fren was talking wif, i was just listening to their conversation. She was using all this "chim chim" words which i'm not even sure wat it means n she was like using a perfect english with us.....but it took me for while to realize tat her sentence didn't make any sense. It was something like "My haf 3 cats bull run extremely hard and very very thick soy sauce". u get it?? It was fluent n u are very sure that she's speaking english even by just listening to her first sentence, but there's no sense. My fren was like nodding n nodding n agreeing wif every single thing that she says, so tats y i was quite confused at first n wondering if i were hearing things correctly. So when i look at her face, she gave me one look, which then make me realize tat it wasnt me actually, it was that auntie. I couldnt stay there any longer coz if i did, i dun think i could control my laughter, so i proceeded to the next table, who's doing drawing n colouring.


I think i'm gng to enjoy this attachment for awhile. But at the same time, i'm sure i'm gng to get bored every now and then coz there's really nothing for us students to do other than playing wif the patients.
