Early Day

Stumbled out of bed this morning after getting roughly 4 hours of sleep and once again my lack of sleep was clearly evident. I hit my leg on the desk and almost applied facial wash to my toothbrush. O.o" Though the most embarrassing thing to happen today was when I was doing a foot x-ray. I had been positioning the patient's foot and gently rotating it, while apologising for any pain, when I straightened up and hit my head on the x-ray tube. This elicited a cry from the patient: "Oh goodness! Are you alright there?"

Today was nothing but chests and feet. The CSU student kept coming down to General when he was supposed to be in Screening, which meant he kept taking stuff I was supposed to do. Bleh. The other radiographers found it annoying and also unfair for me so the chief radiographer talked to him about it. Hopefully I'll be able to do more now. ^^

For the first time ever I got let off before 5:05pm! The chief radiographer let me go at 3:50pm with the PDY girl who was kind enough to give me a lift home. =) She accidentally took the long way around but it was alright~ I found out that she's thinking of getting either a dirt bike or another horse haha. She's really nice and is always willing to help me out. This morning when there was a lull I practised positioning for a shoulder series on her. Over here they do FIVE shots. O.o" The fifth one is a soft tissue one which I reckon is kinda pointless -it's just an extra dose of radiation that the patient doesn't need. They don't follow the ALARA principle *tsk tsk* ahahaha...

I called Sarah today but she wasn't home and I think she's changed her mobile number T_T Anyway I shall get in touch with her later tonight and hopefully we'll get to meet up sometime during the next few weeks. She's been a really, really good friend of mine ever since playschool hehe~ haven't seen her in ages!! XD

Today is a very sad day you know? *sigh* Haven't seen him in a week, can't see or talk to him for at least two weeks, and I wasn't able to see him off. Stoopid clinical! Argh! >_<

Missing him already. =(
