Just another wildcard Wednesday

Wednesday saw a dark cloud above my head as I groggily dragged myself up from my bed this morning. I hate Wednesdays. (I hate weekdays, go figure!) It was raining so friggin hard at 3 in the morning as we had to go to duty at PCH. Day 4 of my mind-boggling internship as SN.(Yeah!) Baby Girl Alcolicol was my patient for 3 days straight and I can't bear to see her still stuck to tubes and all that. At least they weren't making me inject her with more Phenobarbitol as she's still sedated. Her vital signs were checked every 2 hours and while everyone is busy at the delivery room frantically waiting for newborn babies to be delivered, all I ever do at the Nursery ICU unit was to stare at the ceiling of that creepy, tiny 4-walled room. So much for my attention span. Still, the Alcolicol chick ain't moving. Merde.

Oh, and didn't I mention that they cancelled our classes due to the floods in Pedro Gil. Already a little too late for announcements, isn't it? Our duty got cancelled the last minute, so we had to pack up, change out of our really, really, really gureeeenn scrubsuit and head home. At least I get to sleep 'till later...

Mom called me up yesterday. I missed her so badly. I told her I was busy studying, not daydreaming of bass guitar players who don't give me the time of day. Which guy in his right mind would? I am a freak. They prolly think I would gobble them up just by looking at them. Anyway, I was telling mom about my cases, patients and stuff, and still no reaction from her. She was afterall, a nurse herself. She would want me to become a surgeon, but I ought to be specialized in Pediatrics. Sometimes people can be control freaks without even meaning to.

It's nice to blog again, even if there aren't many audience to read the pathetic stuff I put here from time to time. It would be nice to revamp the site though, I just didn't like it if people had the same color scheme as mine. Creativity. creativity. tsk, tsk.

Today wasn't that bad. I'm actually looking forward the rest of this Wednesday. :)
