Letter to D02 Squad 2 .....

When I was looking for some stuff under my computer table, I came cross this letter that I wrote to D02 Squad 2..... almost 3 years back.......

Dear Squad 2,

Improvements are seen day by day from you all but maybe I would like to ask if everyone of you have put in your best? How many of you are ready to teach your cadets once you past out from this course? MAYBE you all would like to think about it! Do you wish to regret only when the course is over that you should have done this and that?

You all are just like a rubber band. You all can stretch to your limits. I believe you can! " Nothing is impossible with a willing heart!"

You all should tressure whatever time you all have now. LEARN as much as you can. You will no longer have the chance to march and jog as a squad once you pass out from this course. You will be alone then. It will be your chance like us, to guide and inspire your NCOs and cadets, just like us, guiding you all.


"LIFE IS LIKE A ROLLER COASTER. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN IT IS UP AND TIMES WHEN IT IS DOWN. YOU CAN DREAD ABOUT THE WHOLE JOURNEY OR ENJOY EVERY MOMENT OF IT! THE CHOICE IS YOURS!"

"WHAT IS BITTER TO ENDURE, MAY BE SWEET TO REMEMBER!"


ATC is just around the corner. Are you all prepared for it? Do you all have the I in the PICARD? REMEMBER, it is always good to be prepared for an opportunity than to have no opportunity to be prepared for.

There's still alot for you all to learn. Even I'm still learning as well ...... End of this course is not the end of your CI Life but it's the starting!

" SHIPS IN HABOUR ARE SAFE BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT SHIPS ARE BUILD
FOR!"

As a CI, we should not constrain ourselves to just Drill and Campcraft. We should venture out and learn more things to teach our cadets. We should not just pass down the hard skills that NPCC cadets should have but the soft skills and moral values.
Though there are improvement made, you all still have long way to learn; more room for improvements.

" WHAT DOESN'T KILLS YOU MAKE YOU STRONGER!"

Push yourself and others. At this point of time, instructors should not be the one to tell you what to do now.

" Give a man a fish, he can eat for a day. TEACH A MAN TO FISH, he can eat for a lifetime."

This is what I wish to see at the end of the course.

(end of letter)
************************************

Sometimes, when I think back, I really enjoy being an CI Course Instructor, not so much for it's prestige but because I grew as a person. Though till now, I still do not know why I was chosen to be 1, back in June 2001 ......

But to think about it, I have learnt alot of things that I wouldn't have learnt if wasn't given such an opportunity.

The first course (J01) was one of the most memorable course for that was the time when I had to juggle between my school work and going down to HQ for IPCs....... Still remember how past IPCs were conducted .... though there may be lotsa firing and shooting, I guess it really prepare us for the course and make us think...... There are really "lots of ups and downs"..... Still remember that there were 4 "female newbies" - namely LK,SE,M and me...... and worse till, all of us were JC students ..... I will never forget how we "bia" cab to HQ everyday after school ...... * wonder how is everyone now?*

The next memorable one is of course being D02 Squad 2 instructor...... Seeing how some trainees who do not know alot of hard skills to one at least equipped with the necessary skills to be a CI as well as seeing one who lacks the confidence to one who is able to speak and teach in front of a squad..... And to see some of them who do well as CIs and recognize by most.....

All these memories will definately stay with me for life ...... If I were to choose again, I will still choose the same path, whether it will change my life in JC from 3 yrs to 2 yrs...... Cause, the things that I have learnt and gone through as well as friends that I have made, is far more valuable that that 1 year that I have to repeat in JC.....

Anyway, the friends that I have made in my 2nd JC 1 year are those who made me really enjoy my life in JC.... cause all of you all are a wonderful bunch of people, not forgetting having such great CT......

Wait.... why am I reminiscing??? Isn't that only for elderlys?? Haha... well... sometimes is is good to look back at the fond memories..... something that helps me to move forward in my life ......

That's all folks! Me have to get back to my studies liao.... ;-)

Self - maintenece Revisions.....

Just revised for my self-maintenece exam...... 1/2 way more to go.......

Was revising at airport just now with S ..... saw J and J.....

Just now at the airport, I wasn't productive at all (I mean studying, nothing else).....

I was so tired.... dunno why..... fell asleep few times while trying to read the notes.....
when I came back, I slacked awhile before my dinner..... after dinner, I fell asleep at the sofa!!!!
guess it was PMS - Post meal syndrome .......
Luckily my brother came back at 11.30pm.... it was then I realised that I should have started my revision..... and well, I did after my bath..... so I revised till now..... so as a reward for me.... to blog... haha.... guess I am only productive (ya.... I mean studying.. k...) at night.... 在夜深人静的时候。。。

Well, back to the airport..... we were counting the percentage of this paper..... only to realize that the 120mins paper is only 20% of our HO module..... and that means every mark we scored, it is only 1/6 mark.......

Haiz.. what to do? got to go and sleep liao... and continue the battle later..... hopefully I can wake up on time.... been oversleeping the past few days...... just hope I don't oversleep on the exam day itself....

Night all.... take care!

1st Paper

Today had my first paper..... it was totally disaster.....
The CVA patient that I wrote in my essay has 3 lesions at the arteries..... I really dunno what I am writing... haiz....
My MCQs screwed up as well.... was "di-gum-ing" most of the time.....
This is the first time me so unsure of myself.... haiz... I really need to pass this in order to pass overall.... I didn't do very well in my ICA and Practical the last time either..... hopefully..... they will moderate the passing mark.....

In other news, I check my mobility practical result...... quite happy with it.... cos I got a B!!!
Something to cheer me up at the end of the day I guess.....

Wednesday, October 26, 2005

So far so good....

Finally mobility was over......

I don't think I will flunk this practical, it's a matter whether I can do well or not, which is something I am not very confident of.

But as compared to palpation practical, I think I have more confidence in mobility....

But well, I don't dare to hope for high grades, as the saying goes,
" 期望越高,失望越大。”

25 minutes practical, I took 19 minutes with a "re-do" of a station....

none of the floor-to-wheelchair-to-floor transfer came out for me.....

I have lift transfer and transfer board transfer for a C7 spinal cord patient....... and NDT transfer and from sitting to standing for a right flaccid patient......

The "patient" is really a "good" patient .....

But luckily the "C7 spinal cord patient" can extend her arms to support herself when she is falling back.... then I say, "use yr hands to support yrself okay?" Laugh....
Then I try to support her......

There was once, I can't remember which one, the "patient" feet cannot touch the floor.... and I didn't realize.... but luckily before I transfer her, I shift her out....

I think my transfer board one not very good... cos I cannot push the board to under her butt.... but still managed to push her onto the bed.... ya.... that is when she use her hands to support herself.... haiz... the bed was abit too high... thus the board was a bit too slanted for her....

But, still quite okay I think....

But things wasn't that well in the morning and the day before......

*****************************************************
I had diarrhea 5 times since yesterday..... this is 1st time in my whole life that I am worried for my practical exam..... perhaps is because I am worried that I will do badly despite my preparation.....
And well, I have a nightmare... or shall I say DAYMARE..... cos it was in the morning when I dreamt of it.... here it goes:
I dreamt that I was studying somewhere, which looks like a food court to me..... and suddenly realize that my practical may start soon and look at my watch and I found that it was already 6+pm!!!!! (my practical exam is at 5pm....)
Gosh.... and when I tried to contact my lecturers, my phone dropped!!!
And when I was able to contact my lecturer-supposed-to-be, it turned out that I am contacting my JC CT tutor!!!! (i was like... huH??)
And I ask my tutor to ask my assessor if I can take the exam..... and the assessor turned out to be my JC computing science teachers!!!!
What a werid dream..... thus keep me awake will the end of my prac exam.....
Back to reality....
When it was about time for me to read my qn, HB came ......
He was saying, " Last person?"
I was like, "ya..."
Of course I am the last person la.... last day liao leh... haha....
then end of the practical, HL(the "patient") put my rough paper on his table.....
I was thinking.... maybe I should throw my rubbish away... then I ask HB,
" need me to throw it away??"
HB was like,"no need.... I want to keep....."
I was like....... Lolz....

Horoscope of 26 October

The Bottom Line

"Your luck is changing -- if it's been hot, expect some setbacks. If not, get ready!"


In Detail

"Monotony, habit or anything that even remotely resembles routine will be absolutely intolerable to you now -- so intolerable that you'll take chances and
risks, regardless of how iffy the odds are, just to do something new and
different. Oddly enough, it's a memory from the past -- one that reminds you of
how refreshing, exciting and spontaneous it was to do exactly what you wanted,
regardless of the aftermath -- that will most likely inspire you to do all this.
Go figure."


These 2 days horoscope seems so true.....

Tuesday, October 25, 2005

Horoscope of the day

Taken from Friendster's horoscope:

The Bottom Line

"Travel's on your mind -- when are you taking a vacation? Start
planning one now."


In Detail
"Two things are motivating you right now: tending to the affairs and problems of someone you love who apparently needs instruction on the subject and planning your escape route once that's over. The escape route is what's getting you through the reality of this currently all too realistic situation, so hang onto it. If anyone knows how important it is to have an appealing carrot at the end of a stick, it's you."


Hmm... I guess it is not so much of affairs... but exams... ;-P

And well..... I'm really looking forward for a vacation!!!

Admiration and respect for Dr William Tan

If you guys didn't know, Dr William Tan helps to raise funds for the cancer patients by wheeling for 48 hours continously ..... for details, pls refer to here

If you guys had tried wheeling yourselves in a wheelchair, which most don't I'm sure...

It is very tiring to even wheel yourself for 1/2 hr continously.... what's more to say when Dr William Tan had to wheel for 48hrs continously??

It is very admirable to see him pushing his physical limits for charity .....

From here, we can see that his disability did not discourage him from doing what an abled people can do (e.g. finishing his secondary and pre-university education..... participating in sports.... doing his part in charity...)

Dr William Tan even continues on to futher his studies in Harvard and Oxford University, and became a First Class Honours degree holder in Physiology, which is something that even abled- people like us are unable to accomplish....

Dr William Tan is one with outstanging strength and perseverance, a good role model for all to follow....

For more info on Dr William Tan, pls refer to here.

Life? No Life?

Where is the life that I used to live ......

I missed the times when I go out with friends for coffees ....

I missed the times when we had gatherings .....

I missed the times when I was busy with NPCC ....

I missed the times when I was always involved in camps .....

I missed the times .......

Now,

I am always burying myself in tons and tons of assignments and projects .....

Now that exams are near, the more I missed my life .....

I shall get back my life once exams are over .....

Though it will only be a month before I starts to bury myself in school work again....

Not that I don't enjoy school, actually I do, I really do.... but sometimes it is just tiring, seeing the amount of effort and time that we put in ..... and the results is too insignificant ....

But I guess the only time when we see our efforts are all that worth it is when we are at clinicals.....
Seeing the smiles on those patients, it really makes our day and forget all our tiredness....

Guess I am really looking forward for clinicals....

But before that, I am really looking forward to meet up with my friends .....

And of course, enjoy the nature .............

Mirror, mirror on the floor

I accidently dropped my mirror on the floor....
thank god it is not broken....
if not, I think I will be unlucky for 5 yrs.....

对象

在一个星期前,我与HH聊天,不知不觉谈到了对象 。。。

我想这也是成长过程的一部分吧(虽然我们也应该算已经长大了吧。可是不管你是老是少,你不也是随着时间的流失而成长,变得成熟的多。)

想起我们在学校上的创意课,我们创造出来的故事也都是环绕着男欢女爱的爱情故事。每个故事中都带有童话故事里那 ‘两个相恋的情人到最后都能忠诚卷属、开花结果’。

回到主题-《对象》。。。。

我跟HH说,我的对象必须喜欢华语、喜欢华文 。。。
这可能是因为我对华人的传统与习俗等有浓厚的兴趣吧。。。。

华文华语也是我从小学开始就有浓厚兴趣的一个科目 。。。

更何况我也不想二十四小时都用英语来沟通 。。。

华人华语 。。。

So touched and thanks

Today was last physio lecture. Dr Param was going through the last few lectures and revisions with us. He ended with some words of encouragements and he thanked us for giving him such an enjoyable time teaching us....

It is rare to hear such stuff from a male lecturer...... thou we have been hearing from other lecturers already but still, it is nice to hear from Dr Param who has been so encouraging and motivating in teaching us, not forgetting being so patience with us.....

It has been an enjoyable time attending Dr Param lectures for the last 1 yr..... Cos he will always try his best to explain to us esp. when he saw our "blur" look and being so nice and patience with us when we slept in his lectures thou we had already try our best to keep ourselves awake.....

Thanks and thanks again.....

还有第三次奇迹吗?

在两个奇迹之后,我还能有第三个奇迹吗?

明天的幸福 ; 满天星


也许我没拿到满分
还不算是完美的人
所以我比谁都认真
努力赶上你的标准

爱你就是我的责任
我跟昨天的我竞争
要用笑容取代泪痕
看你难过我会心疼

故事还没有结束
让我再把你搂住
别忘了预约
明天的幸福
走过的每个脚步
都值得欢欣鼓舞
能为你吃苦 不觉得苦

手心有你的温度
冷酷就可以挡住
我为你约好
明天的幸福
在人海起起伏伏
爱是唯一的地图
要陪你看见 每个日出


【有福】主题曲- 明天的幸福


**************************************************


在茫茫人海里
也许我在某天遇到你
各自想心事
然后又错过擦肩离去

匆忙是这个城市
最熟悉的旋律
你和我都曾渴望
被谁鼓励
跌倒以后
还有向前的动力

我抬头望着满天星
平凡的心愿闪着
渺小的回应
你是否跟我一样
努力把梦擦亮
学习有天像太阳坚强

我们都好像满天星
再黑暗也不畏惧
只因为相信
就算一滴泪光
就能照亮方向
有不怕痛的胸膛
就有天堂

【有福】插曲- 满天星

还有明天

Miracles do happen....

I have found my ez-link card...... but guess where I found it??
I found it on the same bus , the same place that I lost it and it was 8 days ago....
Just as I thought there is no way I can recover it back, miracle happens.......

Today, the physio prac result was out. Just as I thought I had failed,
Miracle happens again.....

Within 2 hrs, 2 miracles happen.....

With hope and patience, miracles do happen......

To O2, I believe that miracles will happen and the little girl will get well for you to carry her and sit her on your lap once again.... ;-)

Red Alert

After today's Biomechnical and Sensorimotor lesson with HB, I have found out that I have Dequervain's tendinitis on my left wrist. Luckily it is still the early stage.

Advices by HB :

  • stop the activity that causes that
  • rest the hand

Well, I do not know what activity/activities causes me to have Dequervain's tendinitis, but it is due to repeatitve use of thumb and activities requiring forceful grasping coupled with ulnar deviation.

So, I concluded that it is most likely due to my SMSing with my left thumb....... and most likely is due to me carrying of heavy weight(i.e. my bag) using my left hand..... (The whole world knows that my school bag weighs a ton man.... haha)

The latter is the most probable reason, I think... but nevertheless, I will TRY not to sms with my left thumb.... and TRY not to carry heavy bag...

TRY......

HB was saying that if it get worse, then the worse case is to splint my wrist to immobilize it....

Marry, marry not

I was chatting to a friend in MSN when he mentioned that he will marry his friend if he is not married by 33 years old..... (ya you.... ;p)

This reminded me of another guy friend of mine, who mentioned before that if he doesn't get married by 35 (i think so), he will, together with another guy friend of ours (if he is also not married by then), to go and apply a HDB Flat together......

Hmm... I was actually thinking why so fast make decision liao...... perhaps a person is only fated to marry in their late 30s or even early 40s?

It is good to plan.... but planning something that you do not know even what is going to happen the next minute... hmm....

Whatever it is,

"Love is like butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it will run away from you and it always appears when you least expects it."

Food for thoughts

Food for Thought



My Lunch.....
Though I am busy with lots of reports to write.....
I still want to cook something for myself.....
For, at least I am still able to do something that I like in between my busy schedule.....
For, at least I like cooking.....

But, I have yet to find someone who I want to cook for.....

Encouragements from SzeJie

I am supposed to be doing some reports now.... but decided to quote what SzeJie sms us this morning..... to share with one and all.....

Be a person full of love
Stay simple yet happy
When things go wrong
Don't go blue
Just pray and say
"I will get through"
Always remember someone like me
Cares for you
*Hug Hug*

To all my beloved classmates, I know now is the time when we had to stuggle with all our endless assignments and exams....... I am sure we will fight the battle together. Just like how we did last year!!!!
Nothing is gonna get us down!!!!
Must use Postive Self-talk!! erm... Exams is not everything....... eh... there's still sup paper *touch wood*

*Updates*

Hi guys, how is everybody??

I have been quite busy these few days. Just had my AA presentation on pet therapy today.... luckily it is all over... but there are always more reports to write...... Occupations as Therapy Report, OTA Report and CR Report for Robert Case, Entrepreneurship Report......

4 practicals on the way- biomechnical and sensorimotor, Mobility, and 2 self-maintanence practicals.....

4 exams papers - 8 modules to study....

Hmm... just like what CSM said.... thou we complained about all the work we have to do, we will still do it..... just that we want to "grumble" about it.... ;p

Yesterday, when we were released early from class, we went to the canteen for BrUnch....
We were chatting and our conversations became "What kind of husband will we (those around the table)have?" and "who will be married first" and "Who will be tai tai" , etc.
It all started when ZR said that she can't imagine herself becoming a housewife after married and becomes 黄脸婆.

Some of them concluded that I will get a gentleman type of guy as my husband. Some say that I will get someone from SPF or similar. Some even conclude that I will get married first.

We all concluded that JL, HH, FT will most likely become taitai after marriage.

I will say, when it will be, will be.......

Addendum: I still didn't manage to recover my Ez-link card.. guess got to make new one.... another $15+$52 gone......

Today's lunch and dinner

Hmm... What did I have for lunch today??

hehe...

I had fried pasta with golden mushroom, mixed vegetables, chicken sausages, crab meat (Real one...) and crab sticks. With a mixed veg, sausage, crab meat and crab stick salad!!!

Tml.... maybe tom yam fried rice.... yeah!!! but so tired n lazy to prepare the ingredients... esp when tml lesson starts at 8am....


dinner.... ya.... today dad good mood... cook some Shark fin soup!!!!! and well, when I saw it... it was losing abit of appettie.... not because it doesn't taste nice.... but because today during self-maintenance lesson, we uses thickener to thicken our fluid like milo, water, pepsi, etc into honey-like consistency and pudding like consistency......

I think I will never want to try ribbina (is it how you spell it?) Pudding again....

But nevertheless, I still finished up the bowl of shark fins..... cause it is once in a blue moon when I get to eat shark fins.... ;p
unless someone gets married soon.... keke

Lost Concession card

Haiz.....
What an unlucky day.....
I lost my concession card aka Ez-Link card!!!!

Darn it.... I still have like 12 days before my concession expires....
I thought I can save more money this month...
but still.... everytime when I tried to save up, there will always be events/ happenings that causes me to touch the money....

just like when I saved my money 1-2 months ago, I used them in my dental care....

Maybe, tml I will go to YCK Interchange check... also NYP Student Affairs dept.... maybe I will be able to find it....

Maybe.... it is still in the toilet that I change into my attire for HB's lesson....

Shall see my luck tml...

Cooking

I have always enjoy cooking..... but of course not the washing....
I went to supermarkets just now to buy some ingredients that I am going to cook for the next few days.....
I have decided to bring 便当 to school again....
Firstly, to save up and secondly, I am quite tired of the food in school liao.... =P
And..... it helps me to dis-stress...... I will cook either when I am sad or happy....

Haven't really decide what to cook, but these are some of my plans:

  • Tom Yam Fried Rice (I LOVE tom yam btw)
  • Fried Pasta
  • Fried Mee Poh/Maggie Mee
  • Mixed Vegetable/chicken salad
  • Pasta salad
  • 蛋炒饭

Hehe.... are you salivating now?? lolz...

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday to Leela!!
Happy Belated Birthday to Mickey.....

And of course, Happy Birthday to my Girl Girl!

A long day

Today had been a long day.....
Firstly, have to wake up early at 5am to revise my physiology practical test, which I don't think the chances of me passing, not to mention scoring, is high.

Next, had to iron my NPCC uniform which would be need later in the evening.

Nothing much in the day...... in the evening, went to Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel for the Officers' Day and Award Presentation 2005.

I was awarded 3 team awards: Commendation of Commisioner of Police Award for Bieannual Campcraft Organizing Committee and SPF-NPCC Charity Adventure Organizing Committee and Testimonial of the "Launching Tower Committee" for the National Camp 2004.

The joy here is not receiving these awards but to see people that I have not seen for so long.....
People like Yiting from the campcraft com, display committee...... (too bad our "AH boy" is not there) and not forgetting OEPians..... it is nice to see OEPians again.....

To Yiting, all the best for your As!!!!

Anyway, I have returned back my certificates. Cos there was slight error with my name.
They printed: Quek Xiuling instead of Quek Xiu Ling.
Though there is only a difference of a space, it makes a great difference to me.....
and of course, I feel that with space looks more propotional and it is the name in my IC!!! ;-)

After/during the events, photos were taken, memories were captured........ to be publish to you, when I have the access to them. (never bring camera cause my brother needed it)

I think the GOH were sort of feeling strange when he saw me thrice on stage.... the expression on the face showed me that he was wondering if I had taken earlier on......

Went to TCC to chill after that... stay till ard 12.45am.......

Luckily I have nothing on later...... finally I can have a good sleep.... really deprived of sleep these few days.....
