Waa, it has almost been a month that I haven't update my blog. Don't know have I mentioned about this before, I am currently doing my 8 weeks summer placement with Boots in Oxford. This week is the second week, and I am almost dead~ It is a really tiring job! I'm still thinking whether Pharmacist job would be suitable for me in the future.

40 hours per week, which mean it is 8 hours a day, from 9am to 6pm, and have an hour lunch break in between. I wonder why a big company pharmacy doesn't have a single chair in store for us to sit down, i have to stand all day long everyday!!! Arghhh ... and my leg is so so so pain everyday I'm off from work.!

After all, this would be a very best time to experience how's a pharmacist's life in real world. It is a tough job, tougher than what I've ever thought of. Sometimes I really wonder can I handle this tough job? How if I made mistake? A pharmacist is not allow to make mistake, a minor mistake that a pharmacist done could have kill someone. I am scared!

I've learnt alot in this one and a half week, although it's tiring but I do enjoy myself sometimes, especially when I can do recommendation and counseling patients by myself. I'd gave a customer advice on Migraleve tablets (treat migraine), and told her everything about the tablet, she seems really happy with my advice and non-stop thanks me for advising her on the tablets. I feel so happy after that!!

There's too much things that happened in store that I wish I could note down every single happy exciting moment in store, all mainly about someone praised me after I served them well, but I am so tired everyday after work, will try to do that when I'm in the mood ya. Stay tune! Hope everyone who is doing placement, like me, is enjoying themselves too.!

Be right back.
