SIOD: Surgical Intern OFF Duty

After a very long break (again) in between blog posts, I finally have adequate computer time to myself here at the Surgery office to get blogging again. :)



4 months of Medicine has passed, 4 absolutely CRAZY months of it... Let me break it down for you.. two months are spent manning the floors and different buildings of CGH, 1 month is commited to the ER (as in Pre, Duty, and From, ER ka lang! Nakakasuka!), and the other month is split between Radiology (where you still go on MIOD duties every 3 days), and Psychiatry where they send you off to the master loony bin of them all, the National Center for Mental Health, which is more popularly known as MENTAL HOSPITAL. Bwahahaha!



The three months sucked badly, especially ER.. Now I know that I'll never go into Medicine... :P
The other "Minors" month was another story, especially the Mental rotation. It was just pure heaven.. I could go home every day, 'coz Mental was just a 10-minute jeep ride away! :D Sigh..

Now, with all of that behind me, I'm presently in the midst of my 1st month of my Surgery ER/Community rotation. All the Surgery residents ROCK!! I love Surgery! :D I guess it's kinda early to give an assessment of everything, but nevertheless, I'm actually having fun for a change! ;) Watch out for further updates. (oh yeah, I might even throw in some stories from Medicine.. if I feel like it...)
