Medication Wastage

This is what we found during ward check..
Medication that should not be kept in the ward taken out from the blister package and kept as their own stock!
Total wastage and improper storage of medication!

Too lazy to write...

Lazy to write so just post some photos of a course organized by our unit last month. All were taken using my LGKS20, photo quality not bad for a 2MP camera phone.

Our lovely MC




Those attended were staff nurses and MA's

Critical Appraisal Workshop at Taiping Golf Resort

Went to Taiping Golf Resort for the Critical Appraisal Workshop for 3 days last week.
We stayed at Jana View Condotel which is some sort of a hotel condominium combination. Room was quite big with beds, sofa, tv and a balcony.

Jana View Condotel

Bed was very comfortable


Sofa for watching tv

The balcony

View from the balcony

Accommodation was nice but the food was terrible, some cost saving perhaps. Most meals was either curry chicken or fish, with no other choices. Imagine being served with only bread with nothing for supper on the first night!

Had our breakfast and meals at Golfer's Terrace. The view from this location is magnificent..only the food could be better

The workshop was held in this building on the left of the swimming pool. We had a photo session there.

Goodbye, my cute one!

Everything will eventually come to an end.

Last Saturday when I was away for a course my pet hamster died. I have been keeping her for more than 2 years since I bought her from a pet shop. Few days before she died, she was passing out blood and did not eat. She was also very weak and shaking vigorously.

Happy moments

Missed those days when I feed and play with her. Goodbye my cute one!

Rest in peace!

I have created a virtual memorial here, feel free to drop by and leave some message at the guestbook

Texas Hold'em Poker at Genting

Just come back from Genting for a 2 day trip for Air Justin Live 2008 concert! (more on that later)
Still reeling from the lack of sleep though..

Well, there is a new game at Casino de Genting which is the well known Texas Hold'em Poker . Those of you who have been playing this before at Facebook will certainly know. I just read about it at the Genting website before this trip and planned to try it there.


After the Air Justin Live 2008 concluded, I went straight to the casino. Since the concert organiser has credited free RM20 into our Genting Worldcard to play the keno slot, what else to do at night!

After a frustrated half an hour playing those slot machines without winning any significant money, I then cashed out the balance. Then, I went to find the Texas Hold'em Poker tables.

From Monte Carlo through Circus Palace then Hollywood, i still could not find it. Then, wondered around aimlessly till finally found it to be hidden in a corner near the slot machines at Circus Palace. Since there were only 4 tables, it was very crowded and I just stand and watched the game. Then back to the hotel room because no place to sit and bet there after waiting for more than an hour.

The following morning after breakfast, went back again and the tables were closed! (kept swearing at that time) Play some other games first while waiting for it to open at 11am. Finally able to experience the excitement and it was really rewarding! Minimum RM100 is at stake on a RM25 minimum table! Should brought some Xanax since I could feel that my heart almost jumped out when I placed the bets.


There were some major differences between the Genting version and the Facebook version.
The detailed rules can be viewed here
There is the bonus bet which is optional and in this game you take on the banker instead of winner takes all.
The others rules concerning the betting amount can be easily learned.

This is the most enjoyable card game i have ever played because unlike other games where you are depends entirely on your luck (baccarat, 3 pictures), it also depends on your skill as well. You can opt to fold or increase your bet etc..

[To those hypocrites: KeepCharmingAlwiz, Tallgal and ex-Perak Tengah Gal (too old to write a blog) please don't pretend to be innocent by rejected to join me to casino] ;)

Similarly to Prada, LG have not left the box behind and have crafted it so it fits the design.

The full set inside the box

In it you can find:
  1. Charger
  2. USB Cable
  3. CD with software
  4. A wired handsfree divided in two parts – a microphone and stereo earphones
  5. Manual
  6. Leather pouch
  7. Screen protector

The first impression the design gives, is that it resembles the one of a Prada phone. Same as with the Prada, the shiny plastic surface is a fingerprint magnet and you will have to clean your phone constantly, in order for it to look good. Luckily, there is a leather pouch supplied to protect your phone.

Front view


Backlight in dark room- Unfortunately, it is too hard to view the screen in direct sunlight


Back View- the battery is integrated into the back cover to reduce the thickness of the phone


Looks stylish and fits nice in your hand


The Answer/Reject call buttons, positioned below the display are in the classic black color and they are easy to use. The 5-way joystick use to navigate through the menus, are supplied, but in this case, it is positioned too low, as well as the other two buttons, which makes them hard to use while holding the phone in your hand.

The volume rocker and the slot for the charger/cable, covered with a protective cover are positioned on the left side. The power button, which is used to turn the display off, the microSD slot, the fast access button and the camera button are positioned on the right-hand side. Pressing the side buttons, except the camera one, can sometimes be a hard task. For example, it could be quite difficult if during a call you want to turn the sound down.


The stylus is in the lower left corner, as opposed to the right side corners, as in most phones. It is very inconvenient, since I have to turn the phone around in order to get the stylus. When pulling the stylus out, it stuck halfway and have to pull it hard to take it out. Then it extends (since it is telescopic), making it longer and more comfortable to use.
To be continued...
