Where is that guy that I will steal his shirts?

And he will make sure I’m well-fed and iron my clothes

And will cuddle me many times

Of course he will be super rich too 😭😭😭😭

One thing I was worried about when I started passing NG tubes in surgery was how I’d manage to repeat the process in internal medicine where I’ll have to pass it in semiconscious patients.

In surgery, I could give patients the instruction to swallow and endure the discomfort. And I’m sure that because they are swallowing, the NG tube will get to the right place, the stomach.

Here, however, I can’t give the instruction so I have to rely on the technique. And like one of my senior house officers who is done now said, all I have to do is follow the technique, make sure the patient’s neck is flexed and I’m home free.

Well well, guess who passed an NG tube in a stroke patient with ease. None other than me!

(Can I get a round of applause?)

I say ‘I’m coming’ with absolutely no plans of going back. Let me turn away peacefully abeg

Poof poof

Can’t get this out of my head😂😂😂. This was someone describing the process of pressing the pump while checking blood pressure and it’s just so funny

Condom pants. If you know what I’m referring to here, good for you. I, on the other hand is used to calling them seamless pants and you can imagine my shock when I was asking for seamless pants and they were shocked. Only for them to call it condom pants for me. That’s the second time it happened. Hopefully, I won’t forget and call it something else again

People need to let Gen Zs rest sha. Any small thing, Gen Z this Gen Z that. I don’t always feel like a Gen Z but I dress like them so e dey always touch me

Mechanic

I was called a mechanic because of the glove powder and and my clothes😭😭😂😂😂😂

I’m always in a hurry to leave the wards after giving drugs so I don’t wash my hands. Remember that thing I said about being open to work if you stay too long on the ward 😂😂😂

I need to touch on money.

Gosh, money flies and I feel like I’m always broke and I don’t like it

I know there are many financial education sources online but even though

Gosh😭😭😭😭

Neeeeeed another source of income ASAP

We went to see a consult in the psychiatry male ward and all I want to say is: God, please never again

Gosh! I was scared for my life.

Most of the patients there were there due to some form of drug abuse (that’s your cue to stop taking hard drugs!!)

And it was a male ward!!!!

Omo, the way they were roaming about had me so scared. And they were speaking so loudly

I had to leave my chief in the ward to review the patient and stayed elsewhere

While we were documenting for the patient, some of the patients were complaining of another patient that kept using their personal effects and one literally threatened to kill him

Ah! Latibo sibo

The guy even said ‘I’ll kill him and nothing will happen because I’m mad. That’s why I’m in a psych ward’. He then added that he will do the same to any nurse that gives him injection

I wanted to run away!!!

Big shoutout to psychiatrists, psychologists, and everyone that has to deal with mentally ill people. You are doing a great job that only you are equipped to do

Chop life!

The Muslim holidays took three days of the week. And this is another time that as a medic, I wasn’t on call for any of the holidays. God is so good!

We also do not have a lot of patients on the ward and I’ve never been happier about holidays since I started this job.

I remember using one mind to enjoy during Christmas/New Year’s

first day of the holiday. One person was chopping life, one person was busy🤭🥳

But this one? We have just two patients and e sweet me die tbh

I’m on call the Friday after but even though

My consultant who is a Muslim invited us over to eat and that’s so kind and sweet and I was happy to have gone there to chop life😂😂

And her house is so fine and sweet

Then the day after was my friend’s proposal and I’m happy to have done my part in that proposal and to have been one of those who tried a little in keeping it a surprise 😂😂

I got my roommate’s plus one to do her makeup and also do a small something on my face and everything turned out pretty

The small something on my face. see as I fine!!!!! Face card!

Omo, what did I say about love again? I want my own too!!!!! I can’t even remember what prompted me to start this post like that but then there was the engagement

You guys, I must start skincare stuff ASAP. Goshhhh. Even if it’s the basics. Lemme just start something

I’m on call the day after these holidays

I’m refreshed and tired at the same time. lol

Stayed in the ward throughout my call because I want to make sure I did my part and because I’m a responsible person 😭😭 and because it’s because of my unit they started it. Remember when I almost got a query

We didn’t even get any emergencies sef so it was almost a waste of time but then I’m trying to be responsible 😭😭

Also, I thought I’d gotten over that thing where you can’t sleep in strange places. But guess who could barely sleep because it’s a different place

I was just craving my bed
