Today, we build.

In a deal, we don’t always get to pick the cards we want. Luck plays a big part on the probabilities.

If today’s preceptorial session is compared to a card game, like poker, I would have gone all out, thinking it’d be a win, but actually leave with nothing just after the first deal.  Today was bad. Remember last night, I (my groupmates too) worked on this > http://robirobster.tumblr.com/post/18072425513. This morning we were accused of obtaining our diagnosis from upper class interns. It was really painful to hear. I barely slept to assess this complicated patient, with multiorgan symptomatology. Getting the information from the patient was difficult to start with. I actually thought she was referred from psych. But what can I do. It’s over and done. I would just have to charge to it experience. This might actually be a preview of what’s coming ahead.

What made me worried was that, it might take a toll on my hanging medicine grade. I really have to put extra effort for 6th long and final exams. I’m claiming it, I’ll be an intern this April, 38 days to go. I want this bad! Please help me pray for it. 

Just a side story, Reece has cough, and the only way to give him medicine is by force or sometimes mixing it with cola(he easily finds out). But this afternoon, with my convincing powers, and limited medical skills, I was able to make him drink his medicine very calmly, without force. Good job for me, hahaha. :)     

School was very light today. We just had one lecture for ENT and an interactive session using this gadget. It’s similar to the ones they use in game shows. 

‘fries’ 

‘bean sprouts and carrots’ 

Anung sabi nung isda habang niluluto?

I’m daing. 

‘today’s to read list’

‘today’s lunch’

‘today’s passenger’

I like it when there’s balance in my day, like coming from something stressful and toxic to getting some nice and quiet. Right after my Medicine II exam, which was unimaginable(a 100-item exam on infectious and endocrine diseases), I drove my brother Reece to school. The 10-minute trip was relaxing. We listened and sang along to nursery rhymes. Behave kids are therapy. *sigh* Haha! :)
