Low, low, low, low, low...
Met up with Tini at KKH to collect our brand new uniforms yesterday. After that we headed to this store that sells medical related books. I purchased a book on Pediatric Emergency Care and another book on the Pediatric Dosage Handbook. If you didn't know, I'll be working in Children's Emergency in KKH. I felt like getting a head start before work starts in two weeks' time.
After that, we headed to Orchard Cineleisure to catch "Step Up 2". That place brings me LOTS of memories. All the way from secondary school till now. I guess the most memorable time I had at Cineleisure was probably when I went to watch "Haunted Apartments". That was the first time I shared my jacket with someone else. The first time that I went out with someone who was buying a gigantic Tweety Bird for his girlfriend's birthday, too.
Coming back to Cineleisure after so, so, SO long made me miss everything and everyone that I've spent my time with. I'm feeling so nostalgic!!
*Huge sigh..*
Anyway, Tini and I took neoprints! Hahaha. Classic. Step Up 2 was great. I've seen Step Up, too. Both times, I've exclaimed to the person who watched the movie with me my dream of being a great dancer. Hahah. Whatever right.
After the movie, we went straight to HMV to look for Step Up 2 soundtracks. We wanted to find out the title of the song of Moose's ringtone, which he danced to. I still don't know the title. Argh!! Hahah. And we bumped into Daphne, a fellow HS Year 3 Nursing Student. So the three of us just chilled, browsing through the albums when the song LOW by Flo-Rida came on. Tini and I were bursting to dance right there in HMV. Haha. After a while, Daphne and us went separate ways.
Walking to find a bus stop that has Bus Number 5, we bumped into another two more NP Year 3 Nursing Student, Xinyi and another girl whose name escapes me. Walked some more, and we saw Ashraf, another NP Year 3 Nursing Student. Hahah.
Anyway, blah, blah, blah. Tini met her boyfriend and I head home dying from my heavy bag. I think my shoulders are lopsided right now.
Today, I went to Comfort Driving Centre with my parents to book my practical lessons. I know I had my theory tests like almost 2 years ago. I guess I lost interest along the way. And I still so much prefer people driving me. When we reached I had a stomachache. I so didn't want to drive! I want a driver. Haha. But there's no turning back. My parents want me to take driving lessons.
It gave me a 2nd shock I might not ever recover from. I saw Shikin, my MI friend! She's working there temporarily right now. But still, a shock!
The first shock was when I found out my secondary school friend has become a teacher in our old school! I was looking through my sister's yearbook, searching for the first teacher I've ever had a crush on, when I saw my ex-classmate among the teachers. You have no idea how surprised I was.
Well anyway, when I saw Shikin, I went like "I don't want to grow up! I don't want to work!" The reality is like sinking in. The last time I saw these two people were when we were in school. When we were still a student. And now, we're all grown up and into the working life. Gosh. I wonder if anyone will have a shock when they see me as a full-time nurse in KKH.
So I went to register myself. Dreading it quite a bit, I should say. I think I'm scared. Haha. Anyway, so we went through all the steps, the costs and everything. Little did I know, my first practical lesson would be TOMORROW! When I heard it, I think I couldn't prevent the widening of eyes and dropping of jaw. So fast!! Oh my GAWD!!! I'm stressed out. I'm having a bout of paranoia. I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE!! Ok. Maybe that's a lie. It's more like I don't want to take driving lessons from strangers. I just wish I have the secret knowledge that I already know how to drive. So I don't have to go through all of this. But there's no backing out.
You can do this, Nadiah.
UPDATED at 2120hrs. Finally! The song!
