March 1, 2011; A Bittersweet E.N.D.

I could still remember myself arriving at the Amang Rodriguez Memorial Medical Center on the 3rd of May last year, eager to start my internship, along with my co-interns. As I entered the laboratory, I observed the surroundings. Upon entering an unknown room, which would be the mess hall, I just said bluntly that, "This will be my second home for 10 months"... And so it was...

At first, I was tentative of my actions. But when I developed the sense of enjoyment in what I'm doing (routine work), I said to myself that being a MedTech is challenging, yet fun. After all the hard work in a full day of duty, at the end, you will still crack a smile because of the sense of fulfillment.

Now, ten months have passed, people came by, so as the experience. It's fun since now is the time to somehow rest after all the months of duties and schoolworks, but at the same time sad since the experience (internship) is over, and so is college life in a couple of weeks time.

All of us needs to move on. This is yet another hurdle that we are to pass, and another one is waiting, just a few meters ahead, whether it be the Board Exams (for those who will take the one in September), or the grueling world of Medicine (which majority, including yours truly, will undergo). As they say, when you're in the medical field, you will never stop studying, since a lot of advancements in technology are being done in this very moment alone.

It's high time for us to rest, to enjoy life, and to celebrate the fruit of our loins! Our hardship paid off! In one months' time, we will walk in red carpet, wearing our toga and headcap as we march towards to stage to receive our diploma signifying another success in life, and that is graduating college.

Congratulations to each and everyone of us! God bless to all who will take the Boards, and God bless to all the people who will go to Med school, whether it be UST, UERM, FEU, and the rest.

God loves us , remember that ;)
