My last planned post

dang! ohwell,

work experience! :D (i have to write this somewhere or else i'll forget what i did the whole week) :/



so 2nd week work experience was at Slade Pharmacy. to be honest, i actually under estimated this pharmacy because i thought it was just a shop that sold drugs and medications.

i was wrong! D:

Slade Pharmacy actually provides drugs and medical supplies to alot of the hospitals in Victoria and even some in NSW. bloody awesome! (y)




so what i thought was going to be a very boring week doing nothing much but retail turned out to be a huge and awesome week checking out the whole pharmacy! :D



First Day:
did office/administration work. first, i had to call up all these local doctor/gp centres and ask for their details, then put it in this form, then print it out so the shop keepers can refer to it when telling their customers about a local GP (incase customers ask for one). pretty cool! 8) never knew calling people would be that interesting. and some guy put me on hold for 5 mins. D: dam you man!


then the news of a gunman rang through the whole work placae, and my supervisor told me not to go out LOL dang it!



after that, i did more data entry which was just pretty bland, then i went home.


Second Day:
did more office work, which included usuing this folding machine, that folds a4 papers into thirds (like letters in envelops). the friggen machine jammed up so many times, and also managed to suck in 60 papers in one go. and that took ** aaaagges to sort out. (i was only supposed to place less than 50 a time, then i got kinda lazy and stuffed the machine up)

then i was under the supervision of Bond, this pretty cool asain guy who taught me how to dispense drugs, i.e, use this huge ass robot thing to shoot out drugs, like a huge vending machine or something.

he even let me use the computer to try dispensing a patients medications, so i typed a few numbers, clicked a few buttons before he immediately took control of the computer again and mumbled to me: "shit! the boss is giving me a funny look, let me take over for a bit." LOLOL but then the boss walked away and i actually dispensed something.. :D awsome!


then we went for a round, which means to get the drugs we dispensed and deliver it to the revelant hospital wards.



after, i just wated around during a staff meeting D: then checked out satellite pharmacy, which is a pharmacist who is situated in a ward checking the drugs that got delivered from the round (like the one before), and actually giving them to the patients.


Third Day:
i did compounding! :DDD
awsome fun.
compunding is when you pretty much make drugs like chemotherapy and other stuff, and also modifying drugs for a patient. its like a lab, where you have to wear a blue full body apron thing and a hair net and gloves and even shoe covers! o.o

i just watched around for the first hour or so, then after my supervisor got out a stash of med supplies and drugs and put them all on this table, where he showed me how to use a syringe, and inject this and inject that, and mix this, and what all these little things do and how to use this etc. pretty full on let me tell you. then he let me try to do some of it. i think we ended up wasting like $100 on med supplies LOL.

whats more he let me out a 3:15 :D


Fourth Day:
went over to head office, which was at a different location, but only like a block away. i realised i was supposed to call the school, telling them i  was somewhere else for the day, but i forgot D:


i just did more office work, folded 450+ tax invoices with the machine (jamming heaps the same time), then placed them all in envelopes. then i did more data entry. boring D: calling people up was much funn-er :D


during that day, Mr. Duckmanton called, and David, another cool asian guy, picked it up (back at slade pharmacy) and he's like: "...oh Wilkins' teacher? ok let me go get him can you please hold the line?" then he drops the line, forgetting to press the hold button LOLOLOLOLOL poor Mr. D got rejected?


Fifth Day:
i noticed that my timetable was stuffed up and it said for me to come at 1:00 not 10:00 so i asked my supervisor and she said it was cool for me to take half a day off. :D and of course, i didnt forgot to tell the school.

so i came at 1:00pm, and did retail T.T for the whole half day. but then David saw that i was bored so he took me to the back and showed me some more pharmacy stuff (y) medicine is awsome.


but guess what? Mr. D called again, but during the morning D: (while i was still at home!) and he asked to talk to me again, but my main supervisor said: "oh, he's um, at a different department right now and we cant reach him, can you call back after 1:00..?" LOLOLOL again! poor Mr. D

sadly, he never called back.

and i have a bad feeling he's gonna kick my ass next time he sees me LOL

anyway, so that was my 2 weeks of work experience. Slade Pharmacy was good! (y) even though David told me not to be a pharmacist.. "dont do Bio Medicine (at uni) like Bond is doing. its fun, but its just like an art subject.. only with a little bit of science in it. LOL and you have to do it for 6 years! it makes you feel like ur a doctor or something, but after you graduate, you dont even get treated like one. so dont do pharmacy! be a doctor man."

 

i shall definitely consider your advice.


ok
s'for now, cya later! :)

edits:
OH! and one last thing b4 i almost forget. i didnt get paid. nope. nothing. zilch. not the first week at peter mac. not the second week at Slade. i reckon this was because the guy who employed me said he was going on "annual leave" but really he was quitting his job D: and so he ended up not paying me at all, even though he said he would. HOMFGBAODSFADDNSAFDJ I ACTUALLY DID WORK MAN!

and also, Slade is located under Epworth hospital - richmond,  (the one 48 passes) which was where mum was at earlier this year. just letting you guys know. it felt weird walking around that hospital again.. :/

**and as for why some of the words are black /grey... o.o i dunno cbs fixing it**

ok goodbye :)

orright, four days ago...

it was my
 
SIS's BIRTHDAY! :DDDD (^^^)  <--cake?

whoo! everyone getttin old now D: she's a teenager!

(almost forgot to put it on my blog, but just thought i'd let you know anyway.)

also letting you know, i might leave this blog after a post on pharmacy work experience is uploaded, so yes. sad :( but im planning on keeping my Christ Alone blog up and running. of course! actually im like double writing right now, cos im writing something up for In Christ Alone and doing this one,.. D:

i kind of figured that this blog had no purpose in it, so yeh :/

But! on the positive side, i wanted to start a youtube channel which is going to be music based, where i just play covers, or even stuff i write myself (**if i can get my creative juices flowing that is..) so, yeh, i might start that up, and get that going very slowly.. slower than this blog. just something for me to do if i have free time. that will definately have a purpose in it, to play music! :D unlike this blog, which is just random words/paragraphs about me, myself and i and my opinions on random things. not that interesting to read i guess :/

OH! and a toast to the newly weds ;D

Gan Bei!!

orright. i think thats enough for now.
cya soon ;)

Long time no see..

Hello again!

yes long time no see indeed.

exams are over!! WHOO :D except for health, but that doesnt really count. :/

btw,..
Analyze this image: ;)

 Answer: ITS MUM WITH NICK REVOLT! hahahaha! this happen ages ago but never really uploaded it.
he was at this Telstra shop, promoting Telstra LOL and we got him to sign two of these Telstra stress footy balls:

;D whoo!

*yes i just got out of the shower
*yes those are certificates on my wall
*no im not a nerd :)

so anyway, back on the exams. history was the most stupidest exam i have ever done in my life. i have a very good feeling that i failed that one :/

psychology was probably the most interesting! there was a question about Daniel and Mei, and another about 'Wilkins Picasso' hahaha! thats just bloody awsome!

what else was awsome?

IT'S SARAHrarara's BIRTHDAY!! SO happy birthday to you!

and... in precisely 4 and a half hours..

IT'S GONNA BE DANIEL WEIwei's BIRTHDAY! 

jee alot of bdays in May arnt there? well tomorrow's June so i guess Daniels' one doesn't quite count ;)

oh, and one more thing:
('Taekwondo' spell checks to 'Wonderbra' on Morzilla Firefox! LOLOLOL) :D

okay i shall get back to my exam preps. (no not really :)

' for now, :)

we got a spare! we got a spare!

this feeling is awsome. never had a spare period  before, so it feels so awsome! usually i would go home, but i got band after school so thats just stupid. Gotta stay around and do nothing for an hour or so.
(i conveniently solved this problem by going to the library and updating my blog, which i havnt touched for like a month :D)

So ye him sitting here with Daniel Wei and Declan, just usin these new looking computers at the library.

Man! So much has changed here, its no longer called the library, its now called the ‘Library eLearning centre.’ there’s two new modern looking clocks, with no numbers on it, new computers, like the size of a hardrive, that are just really weird, new furniture, table chairs, bookshelves, couches, and the fiction side is swapped over with the non fiction side. Really weird.

On Saturday, i competed in my first Taekwondo competition :D i was pumped :D i was ready to kick ASS! :DD except i got my ass kicked, badly D:

my first round match was with this guy called Ezahtullah, or Izzy. He beat me 6 – 1.

Oh and btw, the way these scores work is: body kick = 1 point, head kick = 3 points, a spinning kick equals = +2 points. Of course, im too noob to attempt a spinning kick.

Anyway, he somehow scored 6 kicks on my body, and i only landed one. I tried for his head, but he kept on ducking, frggn sneaky bast~,.. no, im kidding, never met him before except just then, but now he’s my friend so yeh.

Anyway, if you lose the first round, then you are eliminated from the tournament. Henry also lost his first round too, the scores, you can ask him. >.- so, since there was only 4 people in our division, two went on to fight for the gold, the loser receiving silver. We automatically thought that only one of us (henry and I) would get the bronze, so we had to fight for it. We were all like...: “that bronze medal is mine! There’s no way you are going to beat me!” and stuff. We were all pumped again, to fight for the bronze,.. then we realised we both get bronze medals for participating. LOL how stupid is that!?

Lullaby - Cat empire

and yknow, the drummer in that band used to be a music captain at our school :D

Btw, I really want to turn this blog in to a themed one, not just one that happens in my boring life :) maybe about stuff i learn at Church, or maybe musical stuff i don’t know suggest something in the cBox ---> :D

ok, 'sit for now

for over a week and a half, i forgot my blog existed.

nah, not really D:

just didnt update much.

lol ,last post was on bridge church, *wow that was ages ago.

anyway, last week, our tap water turned yellow. i drank half a cup before mum was like: "WAIT! spit it out now!"
so i spat it out, and i could feel specs of dust in my mouth. yuk. so i got some 2 day old bottled water and rinsed my mouth with it. yuk again.

that disgusting supply of water lasted for 2 hours. D: before that time, i managed to cup a sample of it, (and glad wrapped it) and that sample is still sitting on the kitchen window sill right now. believe it or not, the water is clear! but there is a thin layer of dust that set at the bottom of the cup. eww, and i drank that!


i am happy to say, that Henry and I have made a [p]ledge, to tuck our shirts in and were ties for the rest of this year. :) if we dont, then we get cork-ied once in every limb. now i reckon thats just stoopid, cos who need violence and pain as motivation? lol i was happy just go along with that anyway.


YOU KNOW WHAT? yeh what? i have finally learnt how to kill a mockingbird. :) yes i have finally read the book. what a life time achievement that is :)


[for taekwondo] the stupid Scout group want[ed] their hall back. they tried to take over our wednesday night training session, but then they chickened out, and said, orright, next week, this hall is ours! now i have been wondering why our class wasnt canceled, but instead their meeting was canceled. overall, it is the scout's hall, we're just 'borrowing' it i guess. Daniel suggested that maybe it was the presence of hard-core martial artists that scared them away LOL


and last thing, we are on wikipedia! yepp. thats right. check this out;

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hakka_people

under the sub heading: '4.2 Hakka in East timor' section. it reads: 

[Hakka People] In East Timor

There was a relatively large and vibrant Hakka community in East Timor before the Indonesian invasion in 1975. According to the local Chinese Timorese association's estimation, the Hakka population in 1975 was estimated to be around 25,000 (including a small minority of other Chinese ethnicity from Macau). During the invasion, many Hakkas were killed. According to a book source, it was estimated that about 700 Hakkas were killed on the first week of invasion in Dili alone. No clear numbers had been recorded since many Hakkas evacuated and escaped to Australia. Recent re-establishment of Hakka associations registered approximately about 2,400 Hakkas remaining (400 families, including part Timorese families) in East Timor.

Now Hakka diaspora can be found in Darwin and spread-out in major cities such as Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne of Australia, Portugal, Macau and small numbers in other parts of the world. They often are highly-educated, and many continue their education in Taiwan or China, while a majority of the younger generation study in Australia. The Australian government took some years to assess their claims to political asylum in order to establish their credentials as genuine refugees and not illegal immigrants, as partially related to the political situation in East Timor during that time. As no Asian country was willing to accept them as residents, nor to grant political asylum to displaced Hakka and other Timorese, they were forced to live as stateless persons for a time. Despite this condition, many Hakkas had become successful, and established restaurant chains, shops, supermarkets, and import operations in Australia. Since the independence of East Timor in 2000, some Hakka families had returned and invested in businesses in the newborn nation.

LOLOLOL

now thats cool ;D

ok, s'for now :)

*note edits and typos corrections are in [  ]

Bridge Church,

i went to Bridge Church with my friend Sammy. Bridge church is a charismatic church btw, so its like really loud with a massive stage that has three projector screens in front of auditorium like seats etc. etc. you get what i mean. it is completely different to my church cos we're more 'traditional'. (a completely different atmosphere.)

anyway, guess what? Nick from sytycd goes to that church! yes i saw him :) so that was cool. he was voted out last week, so he came back to church LOL.

the speaker at the service was Reggie Dabbs. an awsome speaker. he speaks with so much expression, it was amazing all the way. he also jokes around alot.

anyway go see it all at: http://www.bridgechurch.org.au/

for now :)

and school's tomorrow D:

today was the 'tomorow' i was talking about last week.

ok so, what have i been doing? well i got my hands on a French movie called Banlieu 13, meaning District 13. it is pretty damn good (y). it made me go on a high for like a week, then life got boring again LOL if you are into free running, and martial arts, (like i am) then this is a good movie for you, but if not, then its just another action movie a guess


a couple of days ago, i tried cleaning out my dad's laptop and my laptop of viruses and what ever else was in our computers. i downloaded AVG free, which is pretty good for a free antivirus software and tried to see what i could do with it. i installed, it, updated it then ran the virus scan (supposed to scan the whole computer)on my laptop, and it worked pretty well. got rid of a few  viruses here and there and it was all good.

so then i do the same on my dad's computer, and ran the virus scan. all of a sudden the AVG firewall was deactivated, and all these other AVG components were turned off. and im like "wtf? this did not happen with my computer, whats going on here?" Then, the virus scan stopped after only scanning a few files. it was bloody scary! i realised that dads laptop was being hijacked. yes literally hijacked. someone else was controlling it! "farq!" says me. i decided to turn off the internet restart the computer and try the virus scan again. this time, it worked :) im a genius. (no not really lol) it turned out my dad's comp had 360+ virus files in it D:

now thats one badass hell 'ova computer! but it's clean now :)


like 2 weeks ago, mummy drained some of that left over antiobiotic: penicillin down the bathroom sink. penicillin btw, is a live thing, taken from mould (like cheese mould) the thing is, its stinks, and it is living. so there is like a whole batch of penicillin living down the drain, making the whole bathroom stink! D:

ok you see this thing? well i was at my cousin's Aunty's 21st birthday party, and the little kids and stuff were bored, so they got outside, with all these plastic stools and decided to make something: hence the picture above. as for how they got the top chair on top, i have no fr'ggn idea! 

this structure attracted alot of people to come outside and have a look, and people were taking photos of it. (like me =])

so my cousin Jonathan (he's heaps older than me, a young adult now), goes to me; "man dont you just want to dive into that pile of chairs?"
me: "yes, why not, but it will hurt!"
jono: "ok. then,.. make sure there's no little kids behind the stack of chairs."
i walk over and see that no one is there
me: "*thumbs up".
since there were already people infront of the stack posing for photos, jono goes in front of the stack, and poses for a camera. i see a little kid (who i dont know) and i tell him: "watch, hes' going to push it over" he just stares at me in disbelief LOL
so jono poses for pictures and whatever, and pretends to accidentally lose his footing and step back and BOOOM! all these chairs are flying everywhere! and all these little kids and adults are like staring at him dumbfounded, and i just couldn't stop laughing LOLOLOLOLOL 

song for today;

"Everybody! reach out and reach out and
Reach out and touch somebody"

Noiseworks - Touch

ok that's all for now. :)
