WHEW! A little more than half into my summer break and a lot has happened already.
First off, I got entangled with J and A earlier this year, forcing me to take leave from my beloved volunteer group. Well, I am glad that the issue has been resolved. But of course, I can't go back yet. Not until all wounds have fully healed. I do hope that I could return someday. Sigh.
Well, to keep myself busy (and to earn money as well), I took on a summer job -two actually. One is as a sales and service representative (posh way of saying call center agent. haha.) and the other is as a researcher analyst in a security magazine. It turns out they're actually more stressful than I thought -time-consuming, energy-draining and sleep-depriving. But nevertheless, it's actually nice because I am learning something.
Also, we're currently doing our med school research project. And so, in between the jobs, I am doing fieldwork. We're still in the initial stage so it's not that heavy but I do expect my schedule to busier in the coming days. I also applied for a scholarship so there are a lot of paperworks that I am preparing right now.
In addition, I am currently staying in Diliman, sharing quarters and bunkbeds with my brods. I am actually forgoing the luxuries of having clean bathrooms, spacious bed and continuous internet connection in exchange for secrecy (my parents don't know about my jobs).
I also planned to finish scanning and copying the Pocket EMS handbook and G&A and study USMLE Step 1. But I guess, those have to wait.
crunch. crunch. crunch.
