Having been a nurse for some time now, it pisses me no end whenever a patient's relative request the doctors and the nurses not to disclose the patient's diagnosis to him/her.I mean, who gave these buggers the right to do that? Imagine you are the patient. Do you want your sons and daughters to say that to your doctors and decide on your treatment on your behalf? Just because …
The forms have reached the immigration department and they have sent me an email to acknowledge my application.The final waiting begins.
Application forms for the permanent residency visa were sent today via DHL. ETA is 24 April 2008.This would be step 4 of 5 of the migration plan, and it will have the longest waiting time of the whole process.I'm hoping to be granted the visa by October, although waiting times can be as long as a year or two. I still feel pretty optimistic though.But it remains to be seen if …
After much to-ing and fro-ing and waiting, I have finally received the positive migration skills assessment letter.Just have to get my documents certified, complete another set of application forms (40+ pages), and then sent them off.
As said by Yvaine:My heart... It feels like my chest can barely contain it. Like it's trying to escape because it doesn't belong to me any more. It belongs to you. And if you wanted it, I'd wish for nothing in exchange. No gifts. No goods. No demonstrations of devotion. Nothing but knowing you loved me too. Just your heart, in exchange for mine.Love should be so simple. Just …
She: Do guys usually kiss on the first date?Me: No. I do that on the third date.She: I see.Me: But I fuck on the second.She: ...Me: *Guffaws*****I have bounced back from my depression. Hormone and dopamine levels seem to be back to normal. The upswing in mood came about after I made some plans to travel in May. More details later.I also realised my greatest strength is the …
The past two weeks were not good, psychologically. From the signs and symptoms a layman would be able to diagnose that I was depressed.It feels like I'm having a terminal illness... everybody and everything is seen with a touch of nostalgia and I can't help wondering, at times, if that would be the last I see of the thing/person. As a result I have been feeling angsty, …
It is oft said by women that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, proving to the world just how little women know about men. We can always go out to eat. But if a woman wants to make an impression that we'll never forget, even when we're eighty and on our deathbed and thinking about the two moments that make life worth living, all she has to do is give us the most …
Following my recent thoughts about what I should do after I've moved, I met a stranger online who did a reading of me based on my 'eight characters' (essentially the date and time of my birth).The parts on my character and things that have happened were remarkably accurate; I would say close to 85% accuracy. Some predictions about the future remain to be seen, especially the …
I am now registered with the Nurses Board of ---.Technically, I can work there as a nurse now. Question is: Do I do it now, or do I wait till I have the PR visa (which could be sometime later this year)?
The real difference between men and women is that women buy impractical shoes, and then they expect sympathy when they can't walk in them and their feet hurt.
Me: I might be leaving soon, probably this Sunday (half in jest).She: So fast? But I'll miss you!If she had said that 6 months ago, things could have been very much different. But life - or rather, women - has a way of playing around with you like that.I just gave her a quick prep for the test. I don't think she took in 50% of it. Heck, I don't think she'll take the test …
It's common for male doctors to ask female nurses out, but it's rare for male nurses to do the same to female doctors.I've never heard it happen, until I became the protagonist recently.***Doctor X invited the nurses and some doctors out for a meal to celebrate the ending of a horrible attachment. Plans were made, date and time were set, and all systems seemed ready to …
The day before I thought I resolved the first snag, a letter was sent to me and reached me earlier this week.Basically, the certified true copies of my documents were not dated, and they also wanted a work statement from me. I have resubmitted the documents, but am stalling on the work statement since one was attached with the initial application and now they want another? …
It's just a cage adults make children race towards so that they may one day be as miserable as them.***I hate being cursed with a conscience.***Seems like she has found a job over there. With a 'brand name' company too. Good for her! Fly high and fly free, Bean!
A colleague, who applied 20 days before me, got a reply stating that a transcript with the theoretical and clinical hours of the course is required. What we had were only a transcript stating our results.Thus begin another scramble to meet yet another requirement.Freedom. I will fight for it. I will not give it up.
