23rd April (Thursday) - One week, that's how much the time has flew. I picked up on so much things since then but I'm still learning. I'm taking things slow, like how the doctor and psychologists advised me. Baby steps. I'm not ready to rush into things yet, and everyone were right. By focusing on my daily routine assignment, I'm able to make small, but slow steady progress. I managed to remember all the products prices, as evidenced by some of the comments I received from the other girls. Well, I had good mentors who are guiding me and answering all of my endless questions.
Today was a little scary cause you see, I'm only okay, about so-so in chemical peeling, but for biopsies and lasers, well, I'm not confident enough yet, but no one is pushing me on the choo choo express. It's just that today is rather rushed. With 5 cases and only 3 of us on duty, we had to run around, and all of them are different varieties. For some reason, the whole hospital is full that they ended up shoving to our side as well. Despite I haven't assisted much in cases, just merely an observant, I'm also shoved to the front lines as per doctor's request. I can't do anything, patients were waiting, and my mentors are busy. One handling paperworks, one handling another doctor. So just left me. Armed with my wits, I tried to keep an open mind, and it paid off. By listening to the doctor's orders and keeping all of my senses open, I'm able to handle her smoothly instead of shaking like a leaf. In a way, I felt good, cause at last, I'm able to be useful, despite trying to market products and such. I could probably list out all the things that I had learnt so far but I don't want to bore people to tears with facts. But let's just say I picked up a lot of really awesome tips from colleagues and doctors alike. Maybe, just maybe I found a place where I can truly belong.
This is not like back in my previous experience where things can be shared easily. Where I am currently at is rather slow paced, but it's also a rather fun place because it's relaxing, and while you can pick up things slow, you need to put in a 120% effort to remember all the things you had done and be on constant alert, kinda like a bodyguard. Crime had been increasing rapidly at my workplace area to the point where it is labeled a black spot, which means constant awareness. I would love to share the many things I had learnt but right now, I'm really beat. Exhausted but satisfied. And now I would just like to say, See you again, and expect more updates whenever I'm free to pour out my feelings... (I love that song...)
