Is right Right or Left?

I think I woke up in Topsy-turvy land this morning. But I don't remember climbing up the Magic Faraway Tree. I don't even know where the tree is.

It started in the morning when Julian and I sent Nay to the train station so that he can catch an ERL ride to KLIA. Had some problems calling him in the morning and we were really worried that he would miss his flight but we eventually managed to reach him.

At the station, I dropped my phone!!! My poor baby, just 2 weeks out of its neonatal period, and it is scratched all over! It's my fault really, I was careless, and this is the 2nd time I've dropped it this week :(

During ward round, Julian told me that his car had some problems. One of his mudguard came off and he went through some trouble taking it off. Why can't things go on smoothly?

The worst has yet to come. Also during ward rounds, Julian, Joanne and I were reprimanded by Prof. Hassan for not clerking a patient. Hey, it wasn't even our turn! The other group was on call that day hence they were responsible for that patient! And he had to catch us at that one bed which nobody covered for. The other group's members presented on all the other cases, just one miss. Timing...

In NICU, we reviewed a patient with suspected dislocatable hip. Later one of our friends showed us a case of Patau Syndrome and we were just LOOKING without touching as we were well aware that we need to wash our hands before touching anything... but along came a registrar and gave us a dressing down for walking into the NICU without informing any of them, treating the place as if we own it, touching the incubators with our unclean hands. Well HELLO... get this straight. We came in with our orthopaedics team. We were just observing the baby. We DID NOT TOUCH the incubators! And no, we don't own the NICU - can't afford it. We are just a bunch of enthusiastic students who wanted to see something rather rare. We're sorry for not asking your permission to look at someone else's baby, for occupying 4 square feet of space, but don't accuse us of things we did not do!

This morning, right did not feel right. What was going on?

Sometimes I really want an Enchanted Wishing Chair...so that I can rewind and avoid all these mishaps.

But it doesn't really matter anymore. I am wiser now. There is no such thing as Friday 13th being unlucky. Things happen all the time. Do we sit on our laurels and whine about it or do we get on with our lives?

I think the answer is clear.

At least clinics was fine and lunch was good (nice food and great company). Drove home in heavy rain, but thankfully the Lord guided me home safely. Keep Faith.
