Just finished eating my lunch.
After this entry, I'll sleep once again.
Hay. I'm so tired from last night's duty. We are now assigned in East Avenue Medical Center. Last night, we had the chance of working in the Trauma section of ER. The Trauma section is where all the good stuff goes. You know, the very gruesome and the very bloody part of ER. Toxic kagabi! There were a lot of cases last night. Most of the cases were from stab wounds and gunshot wounds. Trust me when I say that it was such a bloody night. Of course, it was Sunday night. Alam mo na, ang mga tanggero ay nagkagulo. Ayun, nagsasaksakan. Tsk. Tsk. Tsk.
I was so excited with this rotation because I want to feel that adrenaline rush when a lot of things are happening. Eustress. I want to feel eustress. I want to be always on call. Do a lot of things. And, do these things right. I want to feel the drama of ER. I want it to be like Grey's Anatomy. I want it fast. Dramatic.
But, unfortunately (debatable statement), I was stuck with one patient. He got stabbed on his lower left thorax. Fortunately for him, the stab wound didn't hit any major organs. The x-ray and ultrasound came back negative. I was stuck with him the whole time - comforting him, explaining to him that his relatives were still looking for money to buy his meds, staying beside him while being super frustrated with the fact that my colleagues were assisting the doctors with suturing large cuts in the head and doing CPR to a dying person. I was miserable. Just standing there, talking to him. Doing nothing hmm... significant.
I want action. I want it fast. I want drama. I want to handle a patient that I could talk to then, suddenly goes to cardiac arrest and be the one to resuscitate him, then, he'd live. Argh... I guess that drama queen should just rely on House's and Grey's medical drama. Argh...
But, when I think about it. I did gain something from that experience. I do believe that out of all of us, I was the only one who really made a patient feel better. I was the only one who stayed with a patient long enough (very LONG, actually), that because of my company he really felt better that someone was there who will not leave his side.
Now I know why nurses work. It is the simple thank yous from their patients that keeps them going. It was nice to hear, "Salamat. Di mo ako iniwan."

Two months. Jeez. Two months of school work. Hindi na maubusan. Kahit three day-vacation kami ngayon, parang kulang pa rin. Strike parang. Talagang kulang. Ang daming mga requirements tapos, finals pa ng mga concepts. Jeez. Super daming dapat gawin. Ang dami ko pang hindi nagagawa. Hay... Tapos, nawawala ko pa yung notebook ko ng to-do list. Ay, naku!
Grrr....
Buti na lang at may magandang palabas. Super adik na adik talaga ako sa Grey's Anatomy at Lost. Sana ay magsimula na ang Season 3. Siya nga pala napanood ko na yung final season ng Alias. Wah!!! Super naiyak ako.
(Spoiler ahead!) Rambaldi's churva is true after all. May existent na serum or whatev it is na nagbibigay ng never-ending life. Of course, Sloane got hold of it (He never changed!). Pero, the APO team of the CIA won't let him have it kasi naman, ano na lang kaya ang gagawin niya. Eh, may confrontation scene dun. Si Sloane, Vaugh, Sydney and Jack ay nandun sa parang cave kung saan nandun yung remains (?) ni Rambaldi. Vaughn and Jack were held captive by Sloane's guards pero, Sydney has the thingy that Sloane needs. So, mag-e-Xdeal dapat. Pero, bigla ba naman binaril ni Sloane si Jack. Shet! Grabe talaga yun. Right after that, Sydney shot Sloane, as well. As in baril kung baril. So, nalaglag si Sloane sa parang water-filled na churva. Ang dramatic na part ay yung last conversation ni Sydney at ni Jack.
Shet! Naiyak talaga ako dun. Super. Iyak. Waah!!! Super love ko yung relationship nilang dalawang mag-ama. Wah! Ang intense nung pag-uusap nila. Ang galing ng acting. Hands down. Dapat na nominate sina Jennifer Garner and Victor Garber para sa Best Actress and Actor category sa Emmy's. Hay! Damn Ben Affleck for getting Jennifer Garner pregnant. If it weren't for him, I believe that Alias would have reached at least 2 more seasons.
I was satisfied with the ending. Ang galing talaga nito ni J.J. Abrams!
Hay....
May bago akong pinapanood na series. House. Dr. House is the weirdest yet, smartest doctor in medical TV shows that I have seen although, McDreamy and Dr. Preston Burke of Grey's Anatomy are super gwapo and smart as well. Asteg! Maganda ang House kasi talagang parang mystery talaga yung pag-treat sa bawat case ng mga pasyente. Tsaka weird talaga siHouse. Well, combination ng smart, weird, apathetic. Hay! Hmm... Focused sa medical conditions talaga ang House so super exciting and interesting itong show na 'to. At, super ganda ng hospital nila dito! Asteg! Daig ang Seattle Grace Hospital ng Grey's.
BTW, hindi naman pala ganun ka ganda ang St. Luke's. Magand lang. Pero, na-hype lang. Pero, tingnan na lang natin yung bagong SLMC sa may The Fort. Mukhang hotel. Hmm...
Hay....
Grabe!!!
Ang dami ko pang gagawin!!!
Okay... Ano nga ba ang mga dapat kong gawin?
Grrr....
