its nice to be back home after four days straight of duty (uhmm minus tuesday night though). being away from home makes me realize how i miss it so much. when i arrived i felt like i've been gone for weeks. suddenly the images of the hospital seems to vanish as i enter our gates and saw construction piles in what seemed to be for our roof-makeover. i was greeted by my nephew, who knows nothing but asks "ninong may bobong(pasalubong) ka?" and my frequent reply "wala e" and his witty response would be "duti ka?". it relieves me... hehe. sometimes i feel guilty for not giving my nephew and inaanak pasalubong. i hate being an allowance-dependent jerk. i've always thought to myself that when that time comes i get to earn a living ill buy him whatever he wants... by then he wouldnt get tired asking if i have bobong. hehe.
today was just tiring... luckily my 60 pesos got me through my lunch (sinigang na lasang nilaga and a cupful of rice c/o the hospital canteen). we're four in my day post, the two other members were absent, so it just me and kandi who's manning the er (unmindful of a handful of interns who seems to not know the difference between an OPD patient and an ER patient, palibhasa di sila ung gumagawa e... like what crizzy would say... "nakakabuwisit!"). thats the reason why for the first time in my entire hospital stay i didnt got to brush my teeth and take a bath. during the daily duty census with the consultant i had several bloopers:
1. in the middle of the discussion while our consultant was telling us about neonates, i suddenly let out a noise of someone who's nauseated (nasusuka), which i was coz i felt something stuck up my throat. they all looked at me and laughed.
2. it didnt stopped there, as i was about to endorse my two admitted patients, i cant help but laugh for some odd reasons i dont know. well maybe coz i remembered my previous nauseated act. hehe
3. still with the feeling of something stuck up my throat, i fought my way out of speaking, which led to me saying "due to lack of financial contraints" - i just negated a negative; "harsh bresh sounds" - thats admittedly unthought of; "chest eshray" - pure ridiculous enunciation; "jayanosis (cyanosis)" - dubwitted. hehe.
in the end, it was an endorsement we all enjoyed... so much for that formal, boring type of conferences where we all die of cerebral infarct. plus the fact that i made our consultant laugh. that's something.
tomorrow its hospital work again... im nearing the homerun...
(nostalgic note: i decided to re-read my testimonials over at friendster awhile ago and it left me a touch of sadness... i miss a lot of people. i was touched when i saw the profile of regina, it reads in her profile affliation "PLM BIOSOC - Prexy enrique and blk 3 rules", it was so sweet and it has only been now that i saw it. im glad i made a lot of people happy during my leadership)
got to sleep... :(
