Freaky Wednesday

12 06 2008

I’m lazy to write everything. Forgive me, just check the context clues and you’ll understand me. Haha.

Woke up early yesterday. Left home just in time. Got stuck in a heavy traffic. Unexpected. Turns out to be because the first day of classes for the grade school pupils in the school my sister attends. 30 minutes before call time, still stuck. Got nervous because late = excuse slip. Texted my Clinical Instructor if I could go alone to the hospital without going to school. She said okay. Great. I’ve got there first. Waited for about 45 minutes for the school buses to arrive. Turns out the call time was delayed for 30 minutes from the original call time. Haha. Filipino time. Should have gone to school. Argh! The orientation was crazy. Boarded the school bus. Bus was full of senior students I barely know. They’re friendly. They offered us food. Didn’t accept. Day was freaky and crazy!





Rotation #1

10 06 2008

As promised, I’ll be posting here things about school.

My first assigned place in the hospital is the OB Ward. That’s where you’ll see the patients who just undergone Spontaneous Normal Delivery, in other words, those clients who just delivered a baby the normal way. And maybe, those who undergone Caesarean section.

As of now, I don’t have any idea what we (I and my group mates) will do there and we’ll be unfamiliar with almost everything since this is going to be our first exposure in the hospital. The only downside that I can see right now is that my shift will start sometime in the afternoon and will end eight hours later… during the first few hours of the night. Yeah, nice.

That’s everything I can say right now about my first rotation. I’m really clueless about it and I’m not even sure if I have used the right terms and explained them correctly in layman’s term. WTF. Haha.

In other news, I already met saw my new classmates. I know around 12 of them. And I also saw some of my friends back during Freshmen and Sophomore years in college (and that reminds me I’m now a Junior student) around school. I even went to the canteen just to talk with my friend about David Cook and Archuleta’s Guitar Hero commercials. Haha. I prefer Cook’s version. Archuleta overdid it.





Banana Jokes

7 06 2008

As what I have mentioned in my previous post, one of the few things that made my summer classes memorable and worth to be kept in my mind for ages is that the corny and cheesy jokes my friends threw (a few were from me, though).

The banana jokes started with me… with this:

Q: How do you make a banana disappear?

A: Just say ‘anana’. (translation: wala na)

But wait… there’s more…

Q: How do you make it appear again?

A: Say ‘nana’. (Try to impersonate the voice of a magician when you say that.)

Well, I really don’t know if you got the novelty of the joke but I don’t care. For me, this deserves to be in my archives so I’m putting it here. Haha.

Let the banana jokes continue…

Q: Anong pagkain ang may magic?

A: Turon!

If you understood the novelty of the last part of the first joke, Im sure, you understood that one too!

I was in the mall with my cousin when I received the next banana joke. It caught me off-guard. And my cousin went “Uy, natawa siya sa text.

Q: Why did Banana go to the doctor?

A: Because he is not peeling well.

I know this is so childish but no one is stopping me from posting it. Haha.
