Well well well it has been 1 month since i started working. I must say working life can be quite dull cos it looks like everyday is following a 8.30a.m. to 6 p.m. routine. Anyway grateful that ch is working in sgh and andrea is also working in HPB which is opposite my building and that means that i got two more lunching mate muhahaha.
Work is more stablised now cos i am more aware of the procedures and things that is happening around me. Anyway there is something which i dont whether its a bad or good news, i was told that i have "graduated" and my trainer will be transfered out to do cytoscreening while i will remain in the processing lab working with another new person. Its good news cos i can learn to be more independent and maybe i can learn even more things. On the other hand, bad news becos i am already used to my trainer's working style, it can be quite frustrating to learn from fresh of another person's working style.
Anyway, started working with the new partner yesterday, everything just felt awkward cos i seldom talk to him and so the whole processing lab became very quiet. However i got to count myself lucky again cos at least i got to learn new things such as screening for cancerous cells, differentiating all the different type of cells found in different specimen (for example u will see squamous cells from bladder and urothelial cells in urine specimens)and also crystals for gouts which looks like reflecting needles under the polarised microscope. I can say things are getting quite interesting except that i still feels giddy after looking into the microscope for quite some time.
I still dont know whether i really enjoyed working in a cyto lab but i think time will show.
