I said “things” with that I mean there are several things I should be thankful and happy these past few days. Rainy days are over and although there are puddles on the streets, I’ll get by with my white uniform.
Last time I check I’ll be celebrating my second month stay at the HD unit. Time passed so fast I didn’t notice I got over my anxiety induced nausea every time I think about my hospital duty. My relationship with the HD staff is better. There are still barrier but I can tell that things are a lot better than my first week. We are much comfortable with each other. I guess the turning point was when I attended the Nursing Services X-mas Party where I had to show my party-girl side (boys are really something!).
A month ago I was completely insecure with the girl with the long hair but like any trends, it changes. I’m not saying that I’m the new IT girl now but I’m getting enough attention though I’m not really sure of the reason. Nonetheless I appreciate them all.
When it comes to duty I sort a master the routine except from cannulation and other technical stuffs. Cannulation depends on the patient (well at least that’s what my perspective) and others can be learned through experience, I’m open about learning them thoroughly.
By the way, someone gave me a tip that they are considering me to be the next trainee (seriously!? like I still don’t know what to do during emergency cases). The source was pretty reliable but I’m not buying. Although I’m really happy that they had seen and recognized my skills and potential even in a short period of time .
P.S. I have new friends now namely, Leah, Tin, Mark and Mike. I’m certain if Sir Don, Mar and Mike can be considered as friends but they seem to be nice to me.
