School Day Again!

December 12, 2007

Another brand new day for me. When I got up in bed, I think of what this day would offer me? What exact situations will I be put on? Gathered my things and started preparing for school, yes! school duty today which means longer time for discussion. Most of the students find discussions boring and I may not exclude myself, but when I think of many situations in my life that I actually said “If only I had listen...” I usually think of the positive side to motivate myself.

7:30 am ready to go to school because @ exactly 8:00am our school duty will start. Plans for today are drug study reporting, cases reporting, library visit, submission of requirements and quiz. Right there's lot to take for today. I arrived @ school around 7:50am, I bought some snacks to serve as my breakfast because I didn't had one earlier because of the time.

Waited at least an hour for our C.I to arrive, yes she's late but it's okay because it will actually buy us time to do visuals for our reports. We started discussing about our drug studies, and most of the drugs presented was already familiar but some of them put a little more mark on my brain. Some things about the specific drugs which I don't have any idea about. After that we had our 30 items quiz.

Finally lunch time, our C.I provided us 2 hours of break time. When we got back, we had the rest of the plan for today working. We had sharing of experiences some are really funny but I learned from their different experiences shared that happen in our duty days. Some of them are breaking the sterile technique unconsciously, instruments mistaken for another, surgeon's experiences.

From our mistakes gathered, I've learned to put myself in that situation and actually think of possibilities that I should do. At least from what we have experience we were able to reflect to ourselves and formulate reactions to different situations. Our C.I shared her knowledge from our drug discussion until our reporting. She usually adds up information to guide us important things to understand and to help us feed our minds.

Imperfections and mistakes makes us feel that our abilities are not enough but we also have to realize that these also makes up a better person within us.
