Sunday, 10 February 2008 | | |if you had told me just 12 hours ago that hospitals were immense fun,
i would probably have blugeoned you in the neck with a hammer to gain
some karma points and to prove a point. but you can learn lots in 12
hours, including how terribly wrong you can be.
the truth is, hospitals can be fun even without teats and gore
involved. and yes, er is way off target in their representation of a
hospital; or maybe singapore just hasn't got the hang of messing
things up right yet.
we went hunting at mount e. for a missing father and babyson and ended
up barging our way, boldly and [DEL: unwittingly :DEL] stupidly, into
a restricted ward. it isn't really our fault. it's hard to tell that
it's restricted when the button that reads "push to open door" is so
overt and within access. and, there weren't any warning signs
shouting, "restricted! deliveries in progress!" if i had a restricted
ward i wanted to keep restricted, i would place the button reading
"push to open door" way out of reach, perhaps on the ceiling so only
high and mighty nurses can open the door to the restricted ward. high
and mighty. geddit? haha. i digress. what i wanted to say is, it isn't
really our fault.
and then there were bouts of giggling that i am really quite ashamed
of. this was all thanks to uncle joshua's non sequitor, greatly
anti-climatic stories. much like the following i heard on the kumars:
i once went to a warehouse early in the morning and spotted someone
who looked like my friend govinda. and i was yelling his name but he
just got into a van and drove away. so i chased the van. and you know
what the funny thing is?
it really wasn't govinda.
so anyhow, if you enjoy a good game of hideseekandbechasedout, i
suggest you wheel yourself off to the nearest hospital and have a
jollyoletime with the nurses. it's even more exciting if the nurses
have been dealing with wailing babies all day and are at the end of
their teether. plus you get to almost stumble on some gore in some
restricted ward. woohoo!
p/s: happy birthday elliot. it's too bad you missed all the national
day goodies by 8 days.
