Aiyah!!!! Why didn't I take picture?!?!??!??!?! Only realised that when I felt like blogging about it....
Anyways, due to time constraint, here are some interesting happenings at JRP!
1) My 2-day preceptor, Ting Ting: She's such a nice lady and I really treat her like my jiejie! Always enjoy learning together with her!! ( I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN A PICTURE WITH HER!!!!! Why are all the female pharmacists in Unity so pretty???? :P)
2) It was there that I had the chance to counsel a patient in MALAY! There was this Malay uncle who came to look for some eye drops. He couldn't really understand my English and so i began the conversation by saying "sakit?". Yeah at that instance, he sort of fell in love with me and started telling me everything in Malay. While I can understand what he was saying, replying him took me quite some time but it was done rather smoothly!! *pats myself*
"Pak Cik... yang ini.... selepas dibuka, cuma boleh simpan 1 bulan.... yang ini boleh membasahkan mata kering...."
Haha so proud of myself :D
3) There was this lady who came to my counter and started smsing. I offered her help by saying "hi mam, how may i help you". But she stood there, eyes focused on her handphone as she was smsing her way through. So, I ignored her for a while. After about 30 seconds, she showed me her phone.
"You have Vitamin E cream for a girl who has just recovered from chicken pox"
Wow... then i went directly to Ting Ting. And she entertained them. Through writing on the piece of paper! Subsuquently, the lady went to approach her husband who was nearby and they started communicating in sign language!
Although I always see silent people in my church, this was actually my first time communicating with them! It was eye-opening :D
More to come.... :)
