Easily pleased and happy =)

I just finished my Ophthalmology week and I am kinda missing the staffs and the week.

Honestly did I learn much? Nope. BUT the people were nice and it just made me feel so comfortable and fit in just nicely. Take today for example, the clinic was horrible because it started late and the patients were waiting for >2 hours to see the doc and many were standing because there were not enough chairs. Mind you, the patients are all OLD.

And how was I? I was also standing outside of the clinic room together with the patients because I was sent off to watch OCT, fluorescein angiogram etc and every time I go back to the clinic, the room door was shut so I needed to wait outside.

The whole time I was waiting, I managed to speak to patients especially those that were there since 9am (I was there since 8.45am and the clinics started at 10am!). Speak, not taking history so I didn't feel tired or awkward standing outside of the room as well. Laughed most of the time as to how there were unhappy but they complained about it in their own funny ways. Facial expression alert!

Besides that, I managed to befriend a nurse who I saw at the cataract clinic on Tuesday. When I reached the eye outpatient clinic, she was walking pass the reception area and when she saw me, she stopped and loudly asked 'why are you here? Have you been following me around?!!' It was so funny and through out the whole morning, I kept bumping onto her and she kept asking me the same question 'You again?!! Why are you following me now?' Hahahaha, fun times =)

I guess as long as I can get along with patients and the doctors paid attention to me, I am very very happy with things. The registrar who I was with the whole morning and afternoon (he did the assessment for my group as well) kept calling me Daisy, which was my group mate's name the WHOLE MORNING so during the assessment, he asked 'Daisy' aka me to answer but the real Daisy answered so he realised his mistake and it was just so funny hahaha =)

Well, there you go. My week of ophthalmology has ended and I have this sad empty feeling now. Crazy, I know but I can't help it!

Was with the eye surgeon and he asked me ''so what does your future career hold?''
me: " I don't know yet =/"
surgeon: " Oooo, you should know by now so you can do stuff for brownie points"
me:" Ya I know but everything is just so interesting!! I like both medicine and surgery!!! =(

Dilemma...again >.<"'
