The Diary of a Young Man

This would be the last day of August and I know it would be the same day as yesterday. I woke up at 4 am and prepared my self for the sunday morning shift in Comembo lying-in clinic. I finished at 5am and left home by a taxi to school. I got there at 5:25am. The bus left school at 5:40am and reached comembo lying-in at 6:10am. The first handle for the day changed their attire to delivery room uniforms while the others bought break fast outside. We ate at the ground floor while waiting for a patient.

Time passes by and none came for a delivery. I had took vital signs at 8am on Bed 5 and bed 7. Both mothers are cooperative and nice. I took the vital signs of the neonate. I got good results. Anyway, Greenwich representative got on the 3rd floor. He offered us the menus. I orderd chicken ala king with extra rice. The order was ready at 11am. The order costs me about 60 pesos. I had done the vtal signs for 12 noon to the neonate. It was hasty situation due to the fact that both babies had their bowels done. I changed the diaper of the baby on bed 7. I had a bit of anxiety doing it because of a CERTAIN accident that may lead to harsh physiologic reults. hahaha…

I finished doing everything to be done to the newborns of both beds at 12:25pm. I was partially sweating most of the vital signs taking because the ward is warm. I was so thankful that I did not get the vital signs of the mother especially the blood pressure. Both of my hands are wet due to my palmat hyperhidrosis which both mothers are not familiar with. They may perceive that I am not confident doing my vital signs if ever my sweaty hands landed on their arms. I have nothing to worry about because babies cannot do harsh criticism at their age. hahaha…

By 1pm, my classmates prepared to leave the lying-in. The bus was already there waiting for us. Once we are done with the preparations with bid farewell to all mothers there. I got into the bus and we left at 1:30pm. I left the bus at around buting and ride a taxi on the way home. It costs me 105. Anyway, I reached home safe and sound. I started reviewing for the quiz on Mrs. Umandap’s subject on N201 baout pain namagement. I was done at 5pm. I started reviewing Mrs. Celiz’ coverage of the quiz about sick baby and I was done at 8pm. I ate my dinner after that,. It was good. I started doing my drug study and finidhed at 9:15pm.

It was a busy day and good night’s rest will do the trick. I will be waking up at 5am. I really need a break from this busy week.

Good night!!! Good morning September first!!
