50% Decided

From the 1st year I keep thinking on to become a dietitian or not... huhu.. since the course is not in my mind at the first place..

Last day I had a practical exam at the Hosp. Tengku Ampuan Afzan.. The case is very simple (for me) because I've been through the same case for the past 3 weeks during my OPD practical..

However, due to the referral note, I get confused on what to put the priority of the case.. Why? because in the referral note it stated to do the counseling for disease XXX which is less important than other diseases.

I was wrong when i did the counseling whereby I left out the most important priority of the disease for my intervention (though in the answer sheet I put the correct intervention) since I was already confused whether just to follow the referral note or do it based on the priority.

I was 'scolded' by the dietitian for the wrong 'practical' intervention. Even though I justified everything, it was fruitless. I was down all the day.. Letting myself in hypermetabolic state. Keeping my phone OFF and secure my room.

Due to the incident, I am now have 50% decided not to become a dietitian because I am not competent enough. And lots of thing I need to learn within few months to go just to let myself pass the degree..

This evening I've got a class to discuss the mistakes and homework. Hope I'll be able to manage my emotions............................

I am OK if the mistakes I'd done due to my fault. Think twice!

    Menderma atau ????

    Islam sgt menggalakkan umatnya untuk menderma. Sekarang sudah banyak insan-insan yang ditugaskan untuk mengutip derma dari rumah ke rumah.. aku dan family tidak terkecuali menjadi orang yang di 'approach'.. dan family aku pun menderma dgn membeli CD yang dijual.. Tapi, ada sesuatu yang membuat aku berasa pelik tapi benar...

    Ada yang mengutip derma dengan menjual CD pelajaran.. Yang menjadi tanda tanya, CD tu macam CD cetak rompak (lihat gambar)... huhu... harga RM5.00... Bila aku 'play' CD tu, mmg ternyata tiada kualiti.. Stuck sana-sini..


    Aku tak tahu samada hasil karya ini yang original atau sudah di cetak rompak... Hurm... adakah ini masih dikatakan menderma??

    p/s: Kutiplah derma dengan cara yang halal.
