Unto My Senior Clerkship

-


Can't believe that summer is over and a new school year just begun. I badly need extensions for the academic-free days but all these are inevitable. This month, we are having a clerkship orientation and after which is our daily online classes and scheduled hospital duties. In addition, we are also preparing for the medical equipment that we will be using in the different clinical rotations, new books to read on, and our new uniforms ~ talk about the expenditures.

Medical school hasn't always been easy. My life was always rough and probably would be expecting a lot of it still in senior year. But because I have been through tough times, my hopes for success this year is at the peak of my utmost optimism. The learnings that I gained? I actually want to make that as a stepping stone to guide me through this school year. I apparently want to have fun this year -- to enjoy my last year as a medical student. I also want to be productive -- to fill myself with medical knowledge that I haven't still learned, to gain wisdom from the challenges, and still be able to feed my soul through blogging. Yes, I'm considering blogging my way through this year. It's just a thought though. I cannot really tell if I can do it or not because I might be very very busy, but, it would make me happy if I might be able to. I'm honestly not good with time management especially when I'm not in the zone in making things but I hope I can figure this out soon.

 

Of my PLE (Physician Licensure Examination) review, two years from now I'll be taking it and I have been often preparing for it during summers and sometimes on my free time. My review isn't that much apparently, as of now I'm not done yet reviewing Pathology. It's a second year subject because I wanted to start with the basic concepts of diseases first -- for easy understanding of the common diseases. I'm basically nervous for the exam even if there's still a long row to hoe. It's honestly my first time to take a licensure exam and I don't know how to go about it. I don't know if I can still do a review during this year, with all the busyness of this world, I'll see.

 

Bottom line, I'm praying for better days ahead this school year. It's a new level of difficulty to carry out, I'm nervous and my anxiety is all over place… I don't know… but I'm happy and hopeful, grateful that God has been always there filling the gaps in my life since the start. Unto my senior clerkship, may all the good things be showered upon from the heavens, may God fill in the gaps and lapses I may make, amen!

Favorite Milk Tea Flavors In Our Local Shops

Milk teas/bubble teas/bobbas are one of my all-time favorite drinks. I don't know but I really love the taste of tea with milk and a bit of flavor in it -- it's a perfect combination! I fell in love with milk teas the first time I tried it eight years ago when I went to a famous local milk tea shop, Chingkeetea . I tried their classic wintermelon and I can't even...it was like heaven for my tastebuds!  Since then, I was fond of drinking milk teas and I had it regarded as my comfort food.   So far, Chingkeetea is the best in making bobbas among the shops I have tried. They have a distinct tea flavor -- it's incomparable and I just want to say that I'm proud of the owner's prowess. The shop was originally a feasibility study of a student in our college and it was, I think, the first bobba house locally and I was so amazed how her business boomed. And because her shop was near to our school we always had a drink before going home. Nowadays, milk tea shops are al...

How Genuine Self-awareness Change My Game?

-
Image
It's been a year since I realize I was missing this piece. The very learning I needed to acquire to survive. It was so naïve of me, somewhat a pity to not know deeply its meaning. I have been through shitty times in the middle of my med school years and   knowing about this now made me think that I was really on my edge during those dark times; and I wasn't sure how I went through it given that I was so helpless. Nevertheless, genuine self-awareness was the fruit of that storm. Self-awareness is so over-rated. We've been taught in school or by motivational writers/speakers on knowing ourselves - our strengths and weaknesses. The things that we want and we don't want, even our insecurities - everything about us in and out encompasses a genuine self-awareness. But the thing is, on self-growth, being aware doesn't end there. We often overlook the very essential element that comes with it and that is its importance. So why do we need to know the importance of being self...

Promoted + My Plans For Summer

  So our school year just officially ended last June 3 and it has been a waiting game for us to see our final standing. Been spending most of my first few weeks of summer staycation playing games and updating my blog and finally, a letter of promotion was sent through our email…   AHHHHH!!! I'm officially a senior clerk 😭😆🙈🙌🙌🙌   This pandemic was really a unique ride for me. But I think it's also a learning experience that I needed to put in my heart to make better choices in the future. I was always on the edge this school year but at the same time continuously mindful of my thoughts and ways of coping. I was better than before but not much, so I wanted to let this year be another stepping stone that would help me become good even more in the future.   At last! I can finally say I'm academic-free now! Two months of summer break but I think half of it will be spent in our pre-clerkship orientation and training. Also, I usually spend the last month r...
