Late Night Take Out

On the way back to the apartment, I suddenly felt peckish, and this being Ramadhan, I thought I better get something to eat.

A quick detour to Bangsar, and the next thing I knew, I was parked in front of the 24 hour McDonald's outlet. A Fillet-o-Fish to take out then ….

LCW, FTW!

I was hoping to catch the Lee Chong Wei - Simon Santoso match while waiting for admissions, but it started later than expected. I ended up driving back home right after seeing my last patient. When I got to the apartment, the match had already ended. Chong Wei won straight set. Great results as everyone was still concerned about his injured knee. I guessed he recovered in time.

Post Call

It had been a long drawn out day for me today. A typical post call day when you suffer from lack of sleep. Was interrupted a few times through the night, not to mention a couple of admissions in the early hours, which I had to catch up with as soon as I turn up for the morning rounds. This was followed up by clinics and other routine admissions.

So, by the time I was done in the afternoon, I was struggling to stay awake. I crashed on the couch as soon as I reached home and was gone for a couple of hours. Just managed to get some shower. But unfortunately, I would be on call again tomorrow as one of my colleague was under the weather. It worked out well since there was a symposium going on during the weekend and me being free on Sunday, I might be able to catch up on a couple of the sessions. I misplaced the brochure though, so I was yet to find out the venue.

It was a gorgeous morning when I woke up and the drive to the hospital was a nice one. But the lack of sleep seemed to catch up on me ....

Waiting for Maghrib

I have a couple of consults to do when I get to the hospital and right now, I was just waiting for Maghrib. Evening rounds, dinner then wait for more admissions, possibly reach the apartment by midnight.

Late Lunch

So, managed to sort out the ward stuff and is now waiting for admissions as I was on call today. So far it had been quiet. I would have to return to see my ICU patient later though, so, in the meantime, time to hit the shower at the apartment.

A quick look outside, the road was still relatively empty. Time to go!
