One day

last night, aunt jean asked me if i wanted to join the JASMS team for their recollection. that'd be from 10 am - 5 pm with a group dinner at 7. Since i don't wanna do any clinic work and my lecture starts at 5pm, i said yes.

4:27 am
enjoying an insanely beautiful and weird dream about fast cars and pink chocolates.

6:48 am
woke up and felt like going to school. been wanting to text somebody to inform my cancellation but i couldn't resist my warm blanket and soft pillows. flew back to dreamland.

8:05 am
woke up again and felt like going to school. thought for about a minute whether or not to cancel my JASMS appointment. texted joy to inform ate jean that i'm backing out. the blanket and pillows doesn't wanna let go of me.

8:50 am
awakened by a series of text messages and endless calls.

9:20 am
fully decided to do some clinic work instead. this thing only comes in a blue moon so better do something productive about it. got up while happily singing I Call It Love in the shower. haha seriously!

11:25 am
arrived at school and headed straight to the lockers. picked up the hand instruments and left my things at the the other locker. signed-in at the sterilizing area and check out people at the patient's area. found a good patient. did a mouth examination, x-ray, BP, medical history, diagnosed, dental history, diagnosed again, had my papers approved at the OD section, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

12:45 am
realized i forgot lunch and decided not have one since it is already 1 o'clock. signed out at the sterilizing area. set up. prep the patient. started on the outline form. already at the DEJ.

1:22 pm
finishing the walls. assembled the matrix system. double wedged (sigurista ako e hehe). cavity varnished and started luting. worked on the amalgamator and condensed. anatomically carved and polished. had the case graded by the c.i. thanked and dismissed my patient. cleared. cleaned. pack up. went back to the sterilizing section. then patient's area.

2:20 pm
did the 11:45 routine.

3:14 pm
set up (good thing i have sterilized 2 sets of hand instruments). prep the patient. and secretly loaded the cartridge and noticed that the patient's getting cold, silent and BP is shooting up.

3:20 pm
prep the patient again, made him tell about his favorite music, handed my super mp3 player to the patient and played Moonlight Sonata. patient started to relax and BP stabilized. was able to do a mandi block on a stabilized patient.

3:26 pm
anesthesia is completely activated. retract. elevate. extracted tri-rooted 36. clean cut, suture, graded by c.i, cleared, dismissed a happy patient and happy clinician started cleaning forceps.

3:45 pm
clinic door banged open and everybody stopped. bomb exploded. managed to smile though everybody's looking. more bombs exploded and was thinking whether or not i am back at dreamland. but no. more shouting. more embarrassment. said "ask him".

3:58 pm
officially over. was still smiling, thinking if i'm gonna laugh out loud or just cry. everybody's still looking. decently walked out of the clinic. headed straight to the lockers. left my things, sat at the reserve section of the library and pretended to read.

4:35 pm
still staring at the book. pretending to read.

5 pm
entered my med jurisprudence class. asked my professor if could go to the clinic because i'm not feeling well but professor decided to dismiss the class instead so i ran towards the exit leaving my entire bag at the locker.

5:50 pm
knocked. ate ai. licensed. salamat. maraming salamat. go jayson!

7:50 pm
said goodbye and headed to meet a friend for dinner.

8 pm
ate (at last!) my only meal for the day. went to Nike to look for shoes but it was closed. decided to go home. realized i'm penniless. decided to walk all the way home. the bag's still in the locker.

9:30 pm
home.

..got it? good.
..didn't get it? better :)

"A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within." - W. Durant

This is definitely a must-watch film for gut-lovers (calling all med students!) and those who are into ancient civilizations, particularly the Mayan civilization. Amazing culture I say, so amazing you don't wanna be living among them hehe. It was set on an island before the time they speak of Yucatek (which by the way sounded like Mandarin because of the popping tones) kaya they have to use subtitles saka para realistic din diba. my overall rating would be a five-star. if taliwas ang opinyon mo, eh.. kanya kanyang trip lang yan. and needless to say, i really don't mind. no pun intended! :)

trivia: kuya do & ate jot were also watching the movie at the same time nung nanunood ako. si ate jot amazed sa *di ko sasabihin para hindi maspoil*

gusto palang panoorin to ni elai (akalain mo si elai!) kaso nauna nako kaya we'll be watching it anytime this week dito sa house. hindi ka-sine ang screen namen pero big screen naren. pwede rin marathon kasi marami pa kaming choices ng dvds hehe. anyone can join, just inform me and bring holy kettle! :) woohoo.

L.O.A.

Akala ko hindi ko makikita ang ngiti mo sa araw na ito.
Salamat kanina
i hug you
:)
