Happy Labor Day! 

Okay, so everyone is in Boracay right now for #LaBoracay but I'm so happy today because I get to have a day off from duty! :) Our clerkship started last April 01 and I think I only had 3 days off that month! I hope I get to have more off's this rotation! :)

Anyway, here's a summary of my 1st rotation:

April 01-15, 2015
Psychiatry
National Center for Mental Health

I enjoyed this rotation! I really did! At first, I was a bit scared with the patients and all, but eventually I had so much fun! I even had a total of 46 hours merit! :D Psychiatry is really interesting. The patient's are funny. You will here a lot of sad stories. I think I'm considering it as my future specialization. :)

April 16 - 30, 2015
Infectious Medicine
San Lazaro Hospital

This rotation, I was counting every second! Ugh! I wanted it to end so badly. Infectious medicine is not my thing. Although, I learned a lot of skills from this rotation. I learned how to do foley catheter, IV insertion, NGT insertion, even CPR. This is also one of the most memorable rotation because I had my first patient who died. :(

Moving on, I'm still not sure if my rotation for the next two weeks would be Legal Medicine or Dermatology. I have yet to confirm my schedule.

Anyway, here's to more learnings, more skills, more friends, more patients, more off's! Haha!

XOXO ♥

Everyone's Getting Engaged But Me! :/

O.M.G. I can relate to this. Food for thought about being single. :) Everyone’s Getting Engaged But Me: 4 Reasons To Embrace Being Single Repost from HERE. It seems that an epidemic of engagements is upon us. Relationship status updates and engagement photos have begun to plague my news feed at an alarmingly rapid rate. Never before have I seen so many people under the age of 25 saying yes to the dress, forcing me to do what social media subliminally begs us all to do: compare and evaluate my own life decisions. Should I be wanting this? Is there something wrong with me because, not only am I completely content with my current relationship status, but also wholeheartedly believe I’m too young for marriage? I’m the first to admit it: When I think of eternal love, I associate it with my dedication to Netflix, loyalty to Starbucks and love affair with pizza, so surely this means I’m not mature enough to handle seating charts and house hunting yet. Though the idea

Something to ponder upon.

If you're feeling frightened about what comes next, don't be. Embrace the uncertainty. Allow it to lead you places. Be brave as it challenges you to exercise both your heart and your mind as you create your own path towards happiness. Don't waste time with regret. Spin wildly into your next action. Enjoy the present, each moment, as it comes; because you'll never get another one quite like it. And if you should ever look up and find yourself lost, simply take a breath and start over. Retrace your steps and go back to the purest place in your heart, where your hope lives. You'll find your way again. =) XOXO ♥
