Note to self: Don't write entries over the course of a week. They end up even more incoherent than usual.

All right. While I still don't have wireless, I convinced someone to open the door to the study room/computer lab for me (and why do I get a card that can theoretically be used to open doors if they don't enable it to do so? Especially when going out with ICU or isolation patients it would be nice to get in the building again without having to knock on the door and shout until someone notices.)
But apart from that and the tiredness (about which I really shouldn't complain, after all I managed to get at least 5 hours of uninterrupted sleep every night) I'm more or less settled in.

Meaning I now have time to write some things about the last two weeks. )

One thing this whole thing does, it makes me ask myself questions I really like to ignore. For example, what am I going to do after I've finished? Or even: Shouldn't I study so I can actually finish sometime?
I'd really rather not think about that at all.


And now, back to blather about anything that comes to my mind.
For example this random observation:
I've never believed to have much of an inner clock. I'm generally good at waking up shortly before my alarm in the morning, but I've always thought that to be because my body was used to a certain amount of sleep. But at the moment I'm waking up an hour early every time I have to get up in the night for some ICU patient even though I've set my alarm for the right time.
Weird.


This week, I've been told, I'm the only student here.
Please don't let there be any critical cases that need continuous monitoring or checking on every two hours. And let the normal round at 9 don't be too busy.
At the moment there's only one dog which needs to be checked at 12pm, 4am and 8am.
I think I can manage that. Somehow.
Oh, the intern just told me that she or the nurse will do the midnight treatments. But there are a lot of them, so my conscience might not let me sleep. Stupid work ethics.
