One huge grouse of mine is the fact that the Aussie patients just talk way too much. They talk a lot about nothing in particular, sometimes. It seems to be a national habit.

I heard a very funny incident where a mom came into the ER with a piece of Lego left inside her!
Apparently, after sending her kids off to school, she had a secret meeting with her lover as she had the house to herself for a few hours. Somehow, during that time, she managed to lodge her son's Lego inside her!
She was almost in tears because she didn't want her husband and kids to know what she had been up to. -

I've been told by my patients that I'm "very good" or "excellent" with administering injections.
Got a few occasions when I declared, "Done!" the patients exclaimed, "Is that it?! I didn't feel a thing!" -

How silly...did she really think it'd stay together under "heavy duty use"?
I remember reading about other people getting phones and even gerbils stuck in them (may not all be true).

One of the most disgusting things I've heard that was found inside a female genitalia was flakes of tuna. And because it had been left in there for quite a few days, it had turned rancid! Eeeeeeeewwwwww!!!
Now, don't ask me how and why there was tuna in there! I don't wanna know...

Not really that hard to believe. If he was already excelling in his studies in secondary school, it would in all probability be easy for him to excel likewise at the poly.A person may dislike studying, but that doesn't infer he/she won't perform well academically. Heck, I hate studying, but I managed to squeeze through grad school.

Actually, only ONE little block was lodged in there. Not bad, considering she could have had more than a few blocks stuck there!
I hope she didn't place that one block back into her son's Lego basket! Eeeeeewwwwwwww!!!

People like me must be heroes, hor. We move out so that you guys can have more space to move around in!
And technically, I'm still a Singaporean so if they cheat and count non-residents as well, folks like me help to beef up the tally! Afterall, it's a 6 mil population, not 6 mil residents, right?
