Wala lang. I'm just bored and I can't sleep no matter how sleepy I am. We have no NCP's or Drug Studies to make either, because our CI for the MM ward was absent last night. The members in our group were distributed to different groups and were assigned to different areas. Three of us--KP, Arianne and I--went on duty with section D in the Pedia Ward. Fortunately, our substitute CI said we don't have to make NCPs and drug study, because Ms. Cuba might be around tonight already. I hope so.

The bad thing about the nocturnal shift is your body clock gets confused. Even how sleepy you are, you'd find it hard to sleep during the day. First, it's too bright. Second, there are so many distractions and noise around. Third, your body is just not used to sleeping at daytime.

Oh well, two more nights of the noc. Hopefully, I'd be able to survive it. hehe.
