原地踏步

根據基本法附件一《香港特別行政區行政長官的產生辦法》第七條“二○○七年以後各任行政長官的產生辦法如需修改，須經立法會全體議員三分之二多數通過，行政長官同意，並報全國人民代表大會常務委員會批准。”現在分歧這麼大，要立法會全體議員三分之二多數通過，的確不是易事，最終可能只會原地踏步。

QMS

去面試 (Qu mian shi, QMS)是大學講師 Vichy Ho 所提出的求職必殺技。 小弟明天會到東華三院屯門綜合服務中心面試, 求課餘託管導師一兼職, 職責是替小學生進行課後功課指導, 籌備及帶領學生進行課後活動, 定期與家長及同事報告學童情況, 購買茶點及準備小組活動物資替。(要背!) 雖然我不是第一次面試, 但也有點緊張。 事前已經查了地圖, 想好了路線。 今天已擬定了自我介紹的內容, 猜了社工會有什麼問題。 朋友S提醒我要準備回答一些富挑戰性的問題。 例如為什麼二十六歲才畢業。 朋友S提議我答,"disturbed by health problem during study and finally overcome it and complete the program and graduate." 朋友B今天問我怎樣處理反斗的小童。 我答:"會對小朋友說:'假如你再胡鬧便會向你家長或社工說不是。'" 朋友B道:"如果一位小朋友影響了全班, 應請他離開課室, (由別的人照顧)。" 爸爸今晚對我說:"你手震便會泡湯。應該不行, 當取經驗。" 阿媽便叫我收起雙手。 而我最擔憂的是本人中國語文及文化科的不合格成績會否有重大影響。 加上我的普通話只屬於一般, 要靠拼音。

MS Excel and PPT

Excel (1) To refer to a range, two cell addresses will be used, separated by a colon (:). The first cell is the top leftmost cell in the range, and the second is the bottom rightmost cell. (2) There are occasions when the content is too long to be displayed in a cell. A convenient way is to apply AutoFit to columns. For example, select columns A to E by dragging from column heading A to E. Click Format in the Cells group, followed by AutoFit Column Width to automatically adjust the columns' width such that all text are visible. (3) Dollar sign ($) is used for absolute cell reference. Whenever a dollar sign is added, the value after the sign will be fixed and no matter where that formula is copied to, that value will remain unchanged. Powerpoint (1) You can adjust the heading level of a point with the [Tab] key. That means you can either promote or demote a point to your desired heading level. (2) Click to select any one of the three objects Press and hold the [Ctrl] key Click to select the other two objects Right-click on the selection Choose Group, then choose Group again in the sub-menu (3) changes you made in the slide master do not override the changes you made in individual slides

歸屬感與虛榮心

從前在梁銶琚(LKKC)讀中五，會有一份歸屬感。 雖然 LKKC 是 Band 1 英文中學，更被譽為屋村名校， 但我只是慶幸自己能成為其中一員，一點虛榮心也沒有。 回想起來，很懷念那份無邪。 經過時間的洗禮，在何福堂(HFTC)讀中七，高考受挫， 之後在 PolyU HKCC 修讀 Associate in Health Studies. 讀了第一年副學士，幸運地銜接上 HKU BNurs. 當時我沾沾自喜，產生了一種虛榮心。 幸好，此種心態只是維持了半年左右。 奇怪的是，我還未能對大學產生歸屬感。 可能是因為我不太喜歡學系裡的小圈子生態， 也可能是因為我得罪人多、稱呼人少，朋友少，知心更少。 P.S.現在畢業了，又如何！ 人家可憐我曾有 mood disorder 才讓我勉強合格。 Teaching consultant 強烈建議我不要在前線工作。 一個護理學系畢業生不能在醫院工作，又沒經驗，能有一番作為嗎？ 難道要學四十歲的老鷹痛苦地脫變？ 我想，先要忘掉那 HKU graduate 的虛名。 雖然我不是 worst of the best, 但也不是 best of the best.

牛

咸豐年前, 太極師公在玉器市場問我一塊玉牛擺設的英文是甚麼？ 當年, 我大概是一個中一學生。 我答: “Cow.” 師公道: “不對, 公牛的英文是 Ox.” 故事的寓意是甚麼呢? 語言難學, 別國的語言更難學。 他大概沒有上過英文堂, 他學的是 use of English. 說到牛與英語, 牛肉的英文是 beef; 牛排的英文是 steak. Steak 的生熟程度又衍生出不同用語: rare, medium and well done. 不同部位的牛排又有不同的名稱: for example, ribeye and T-bone. 而中國人對豬肉便比較講究, 有分西施骨、柳梅、金沙骨等等。

Comment of CI in Yr 2 (Sept, 2013)

Tsz Yeung Samson overall performance was unsatisfactory in last three weeks. He is a cheerful person and motivated learner. He was active to practice various nursing procedures (aseptic technique and intravenous drug administration) in supervisory skills laboratory in school and also in ward. He was very weak in planning his nursing care and prioritizes his nursing care according to his patient’s need. He was very poor in time management even though he carried out total patient care for two patients only. He performed all his nursing care in a very slow pace manner even though he assigned to take care the same patients (Bed 12,13) in last two week clinical practicum. He failed to demonstrate problem-solving behavior and critical thinking when he provided nursing care to his patients. He was unable to work independently. He required frequent prompting and assisting with constantly cue given by clinical instructor and 2nd assessor. He could not organize his nursing care in systematic ways with good coordination manner which could affect his effectiveness and efficiency of nursing care. He needs frequent probing and advice from clinical instructor and teammates when he was doing most of nursing procedures and daily routine. He was unable to perform comprehensive nursing assessment: because he kept missing important details about patient’s condition while performing risk of fall assessment on his patient and carried out comprehensive post operative care. His performance in aseptic technique was unsatisfactory due to repeated mistake, such as, contamination dressing materials and patient’s wound. In addition, he failed in AOM as his carelessness in administration medication and forgot to documentation after drug administration. Future direction: he is advised to further fine-tone his skills in basic and advanced nursing skills in order to increase his confidence working in clinical area and maintain patient safety in future. He needs to set priority for his nursing care and procedures. He must improve his communication skill by providing education to patients.

談近況 (August, 2013)

較早前申請了政府的綜合招聘考試, 瀏覽當局網站的例題, 中英文也難到不得了。 一向語文成績偏弱的小弟來說可說是岌岌可危。 盡了力, 搏盡便無悔。不只一次機會呢! 與此同時, 亦申請一份正職。 想在元朗廈村博愛醫院一所護理安老院擔當合約活動工作員。 表格上問期望薪酬, 我填了八千元, 被阿媽罵了一頓。 外邊相關職系也是九千元左右, 而我又沒經驗。 工作需要懂得中文輸入, 近兩天練習速成, 此篇文章也是放棄了手寫。 剛完成自閉症人士福利促進會的義務工作, 臨別時, 看見可愛的小朋友, 依依不捨。 自問性格比較內向的我來說, 與他們溝通的確有難道。 因為時間分配的關係, 大部分日子裡, 我只是和他們玩球類運動。 到了最後一天, 我們一起玩樂器, 看他們綵排話劇, 感覺很不一樣。 最高興的是, 我和某幾個小朋友建立了互信的關係。 最近, 在旺角某教育中心學習普通話, 上的是基礎課程。 老師說我的普通話比其他同學好。 因為我的年紀比他們小?不對。 而是我在大學裡讀過初班。
