Half way along the road
I woke up at 6:30am. It was a sunny morning and I prepared my self for school. Today, group 1 will have a meeting to complete the entire group case study. It was traffic when I left home and from 7:30am I was stranded along Mckinley road where mansion-like houses covered the side of the road. I reached school at 9am.
I immediately started doing my part for the group case study. I wrote the analysis and interpretation of data for the nursing diagnosis: risk for fluid volume deficit. I finished at exactly 10:25am and passed it to the encoder. I cooperated with the pathophysiology development committee. I contributed a little for the development of a schematic diagram of the pathophysiology. I took the first move on making one for "acute pain." I did not succeed flawlessly in that part that’s why Isay and the others formulated much more to the development of the diagnosis and branching out to related diagnoses as well. I was not feeling well in the middle of the formulation. I got a bit dizzy and been silenced for a while.
It was 12 noon when we had our lunch break. I had a separate way in enjoying my lunch. I went up to the student’s lounge and indulged my self with sisig and 3 extra cups of rice. In the end of my lunch, I was very full and the dizziness faded away. I reached the library at 1pm with any hygienic practices done before getting in. I was greeted with a question, "ok ka lang ba Corro?" I replied, "Oo naman." I continued doing my individual case study in the library. I had finished doing the drug study that day and got significant information that would help a lot in making chapters 3, 4 and 5. Jezel left the library earliest and followed by Me, Arra and leslie. The other members of the group are on the 1st floor encoding the chapters 3, 4 and 5. Mark was surprised seeing me for he believed that I left early during lunch. The others dined in Mcdonald’s that’s why they had that guess.
I left in a partially hot afternoon. I got in the jeepney and I was with a very peculiar passenger. I was really annmoyed on her murmurings and body movements as if she does not want any physical contact with me. Grrr… I hate those kind of people. Anyway, I realized I had a very poor patience. Before I dined in the student’s lounge located at the 8th floor of kalayaan building, I went to jolibee first but was extremely irritated with the slow service they are having. I also practiced conscious breathing exercises because I believe it can reduce certain anxieties I am having that would decrease perspiration rates.
I reached home at a good 5pm. I started encoding the poathophysiology of my individual case study. To be honest, I believed that it would take me 4 pages to make a pathophysiology but in the end I got a single page. It composed of a schematic diagram compiled with the normal and abnormal process occurring in the study that got me to my 4 nursing diagnoses. Anyway, I was contented with the result. It was 9pm when I finished the chapter 3 also. I had a lot of cut and paste there from my nursing care plan to the 3rd paragraph of each analysis and interpretation of data per diagnosis. I spend the rest of my available time chatting a little bit and typing this blog.
Tomorrow will be a test of my physical endurance. We will be going to house to house and getting desired information from the mother about how well are they doing? etc. We will be doing a\our community duty in Comembo lying-in clinic and I expect something bad will happen. Comembo lying-in clinic duty will happen for frifay, saturday and sunday alone this week. That’s good news because I have no plans staying there for another week. I love our clinical instructor so much!!!
Good night!
