mataas siguro ang libido ko.hehe,nanaginip ako that i was with kristin kreuk last night. it's like she's been missing for quite some time yet there is no time for both of us. pero, the details isn't important, it's just that i know how it feels when i was with kristin kreuk..hehe
hindi masyadong toxic sa duty kanina. 3 patients lang naman. then suddenly pag sapit ng 9pm, sunod sunod na ang dating ng mga pasyente. at ang isa ay magiging toxic sana pero hindi na nila tinuloy ang pagpa admit sa hospital.. minsan mahirap isipin na ang personnel has the capabiliy to do the procedures but the hospital requires not to. primary hospital lang kasi.. i understand what the law requires but these people who comes late in the evening would not come if the need for medical help is not urgent. i will just do the best way i can.

batang-bata pa
In a month, it will be our town’s fiesta. And the last time that I joined for this festivity was on 2004. It’s been a while. And now I am bit excited because I want to enjoy what I do most. This afternoon, while the basketball game has its break, I played basketball, slightly concussed my left elbow inward. I brought my bro(youngest) to the plaza to buy some cotton candy and watch the game. For four years I have never tasted a cotton candy. Bought also some of the goods for sale beside the plaza. Silently, I am enjoying this experience because I was brought back to how I was when I was younger.
pang umaga
Another week of duty. Morning shift is quite laborious than any shift in terms of average situations. Getting up early is not a problem anymore even though I only sleep for five hours. Anyway, this week is a family week in the ward. On Wednesday, we have 11 patients that are confined. 5 of them are my relatives. I know that they were because I handled the admission and discharged. A lola, a nephew, and 3 cousins. And on the other day another lola came, and a cousin. Most of them have the same cases which made me wonder.
Each day I learn new things, I re-experience the college duty days. One of the important things that I have to endure is separating family matters from the profession. The experiences that I am having are extraordinary. I assisted in delivery, suture and ivf. All in one week after 2 years of not doing any health related things.
I just wonder how my colleagues could finish in earlier before the shift ends. My work isn’t even greater than theirs yet but I can’t finish it earlier so that I could have time to check for it. But one thing I knew is that I can work faster if I work alone, much less mistakes, and no misunderstanding. But I understand that they are the one who adjust for me, I should. Little by little I’ll learn all of the things I need to know.
When I looked at the mirror this morning i noticed that my abdomen has become smaller and abs can be seen in silhouette. Hehehe. Sa sobrang kain noon lumaki bigla ang tiyan ko. Then when I started working in the hospital, lumiliit na ulit. Kaunting crouches lang, magkakaroon okay na.hehe.

sariwa pa
my full second week and i am on duty in the OPD/ER. my first day was too good for an immediate work out. may vehicular accident. the problem is, this town is just small that everyone knows anyone. raquel, and jennny were my collauges and auntie girlie. these two ladies are vertically challenged persons and it is always the topic for getting fun. anyway. di naman pwedeng sabihin ko isa-isa ang nangyayari sa mga pasyente na pumupunta dito.
one the good things that is happening is that, all of those who seek for medical needs seem to remember me, and others. that when i stroll around, these people would smile at me. syempre ngiti din ako. sabi ko nga, maliit lang ang lugar na ito.
sariwa pa! inakayan ako ng isang balo at tinanong ako kung bakit daw ako gwapo. fresh na resh daw ako. stupid. pag-uwi ko i told my parents what this lady said. then they summarized all the widows in this hospital that i am working with for five days. ang nurse na kasama ko sa ER balo, and babae sa records section ng OPD ay balo, ang sa book keeping, balo, at ang sa administration ay balo.
mabuti na lang, balik na ako sa ward this monday. perhaps the most challenging week for me.

the first five days
after sacrificing my hair and goatie, i started my duty in a gov't hospital here in our town. this town's so small na ang nagorient sa akin at umikot sa akin sa buong hospital is my classmate's mother, introduced me to my ninang, auntie's, uncle's, kuya's and to anyone. i know them all, if not on their names, on their faces. first day,on ward.
i was with other nurses were the three of them are a family, the motehr nurse, the daughter and her husband. nothing hand's on really, but more on orientation, what to do, how to do, when to do, anything, by auntie rufel, auntie chit, nene chirona, jhero, leo, jane, aunti girlie, dr. lovelle, che and auntie sascion(who always starres at me smiling. i want to mention their names because they helped me a lot on my first day. and i was well welcomed because i've got free lunch.hehe
second day, is just like the first day, kept on orientation and familiarization of the routie they have in the ward. tensions between administrators rose up as they send out their sentiments. as well in the third day patient admissions are rising in number
thursday, i was expecting that the admissions will rise.and it did, before the end of my shift, we exceeded the bed capacity. and worst there is only one nurse and i as a volunteer. worst things came to happen by the hour. only 30mins. past 6, there wa a call for an ambulance to transport a vehicular accident patient. and there are 27 patients for only the two of us. i was left in the ward as the other one prepares for the arrival of the VA victim. then the ambulance came, and auntie rufel the nurse called me to help out in cleaning for debris and blood. the extent of the injury and wound is severly unexplainable, i barely know the patient to who he was. later on as i was cleaning, i recognized him and called him by his monicker. nagulat ak, dahil sumagot siya by speaking my nickname, nagulat din ang lahat dahil hindi siya sumasagot ng matino sa mga tanong. this man is a batchmate, a friend at kapamilya din. alam ko na agad kung bakit naaksidente dahil alam ko ang ugali ng tao na iyon. after cleaning, i proceeded to the ward alone with a nurse aide. too many patients, for a 4day older, pero isa-isa lang at nakaraos. tapos na-admit na ang kaibigan ko, i attent to his needs, and did even the aide's job. sabi ko nga mahirap maging nurse sa isang kakilalang malapit. funny was, is that he kept on asking me if he's still conscious or not. the mere questioning is a sign if consciousness na.hehe. the hospital cannot give everything for assurance of recovery, so he was transfered to other hospital.
this day, medyo busy din, dahil from 27 naging almost 30 na..pero maraming umuywi. kaya okay lang, plus madami na kami sa ward.
anyway, i got nothing more to say about my frst five days. only one thing. i noticed a significant reduction in my stomach protruberance. sobrang lumiit. in just 5 days halata agad. dahil siguro wala nakong luxury sa time kapag kumakain at nabago ang eating habbit ko.

good bye - almost perfect hair
umapply ako para magvolunteer last friday and instatnly i am going to start (finally) tomorrow. there are many things that i must sacrifice. luxury in sleep, chat with my tatay, my goatie which helps me look good, hehe. and my hair. sounds nuts but i always make some emphasis throught these. i have to cut now not the usual trim. fortunately, my regular hair stylist wasn't in his parlor until evening. i have moe time to take photos before i change everything. stupid. parang stupid nga na buhok lang to. pero hindi naman tungkol dito ang entry na ito
bukas magsa-start na ako sa monday sa hospital. i am nervous not because it will be my first day, but because the seniors have greater expectations from me than others. but anyway, i can handle everything. i guess.
and lastly, i think i have more to add for this blog because of a widened environment i will be having starting tomorrow.
