October duty

This month, October, nag-shift na kami. Tapos na kami sa OPD, which was from July to September. Ngayong October, I'll be staying two weeks at the ER, one week each for Pedia and Medicine, and then two weeks at the Neonatal ICU.

This two weeks at the ER is an every-other-day duty. Meaning we go on duty for 24hours, that's 730am to 730am the next day... and then we are off duty for 24 hours naman. So every other day we get no sleep, and every other day we don't wake up. Hahahaha. Today, From Duty na ako... I got home at about 8am... slept after eating breakfast... and woke up at about 4pm..... Where has the day gone? Hahaha. And tomorrow, duty nanaman. Yun lang naman ang cycle ko until the 15th.

Sa 16 we go to the NICU na. There, we go on 32hour shifts.... First we go On Duty for 24 hours and kami ang in charge of every little baby who makes its way into the world that day sa kung ano mang paraan. Hehe. And after that we're From Duty but we can't leave the hospital until 5pm kase kami naman ang in charge sa mga discharging and taking care of all the neonates outside the ICU.

We don't get a sem break. And we don't get a Christmas break either. So don't ask na lng what I'll be doing come sem break coz you're just breaking my heart sa inggit. Haha. Nanay keeps asking when I'll be flying over for Christmas vacation when i've been telling her since April when we started internship that we won't get to have a Christmas break! haaaay.....

Anyway...

Happy birthday to Daniel... my best seatmate ever! and to Alison.... :) Happy birthday Al!
*bighugs to all*
