12 Hours Shift – Counting Down My Hours Each Time At Work

Related Posts:

How do you waste the most time every day?

At the time of writing this article, which was back in June 2025, I was going through my 6th Rotation of my Housemanship which is in the Department of Emergency and Trauma. As a House Officer in the Emergency Department, we go by the 12-hours shift.

This meant, our shift is from:

AM Shift: 7am till 7pm
PM Shift: 10am till 10pm
Night Shift: 10pm till 10am

In this department, they are strict in regards to adhering to a minimum of 60 hours per week in total. Thus, in a week, our schedule is as follows;

A total of at least 4 daytime shifts (AM or PM Shifts)
One night shift
One off day

That is provided one has off-tagged of course.

Perhaps, it is the “last paper syndrome” that I was experiencing being in the 6th and final rotation, I would be counting down my hours each day at work. Thus, upon arrival at work, I would start my “12-hours countdown“ on my phone.

On slow days, I made it a point to go to toilet every hour, technically my so-called “hourly break” whereas on busy days, the toilet break is the only time I could take a break. This is followed by ensuring I have at least one meal per day during my shift.

Otherwise, the schedule in the emergency department is relatively better as compared to my previous rotations. Nevertheless, the tiredness is still there.

My First Night Shift In Emergency & Trauma | Housemanship Diaries

Related Posts:

Remember when I mentioned that I love the night shifts?

No? Well, here are the articles advocating my love for that shift:

Photo by Chauhan Dixant on Pexels.com

My first night shift in this department was in the Red Zone and I was terrified.

Thankfully, it was with a fellow Registrar who is rather patient, kind and one who loves to teach.

The scary part however was that it is the Red Zone after all and on my first night!

The Red Zone basically caters to patients who are unstable be it haemodynamically or in terms of their vital signs or that they are in a state of severe acidosis, on the verge of collapsing, you name it. Basically, how severe of a state a person must be in to end up in that zone.

The night started off smoothly with cases coming in one at a time. Alright, I kept repeating to myself, “attend them, transfer them to another bed, vital signs, bloods, fill out forms, clerk and basically just listen to your superiors”.

The night eventually turned into midnight and into the wee hours of the morning and finally the sun has risen. Before I knew it, it was 7am and the AM shift House Officer has arrived. I am not alone again.

Time to prepare for handover rounds at 7:45am.

It was better after that, having another person with me as it felt less intimidating.

At 10am, I took off and headed home. Not a bad experience for the first night shift.

The good thing about the night shift in the Emergency and Trauma is that we are not alone. There is always a team or at least your superiors are always there.

However, I don’t quite prefer the night shift in this posting. Having actually completed this posting, at the time of writing this article, the daytime shift is definitely better.

Nonetheless, in all the night shifts, albeit that it could be a terrifying one especially prior to the start of your shift, always remember that you are never completely alone even if it feels like it and that help is always nearby.

40 Days Since I’ve Started Being Vegetarian

Click here for more articles & daily dose.

Describe one positive change you have made in your life.

The positive change? Being vegetarian. Well, for 40 days then I’m non-vegetarian again.

Why did I even embark on this journey?

Every year during Lent, I would embark on a vegetarian journey, a lacto-ovo-vegetarian journey to be exact and this year, it was from the 5th of March till the 19th of April 2025.

Thus, I went from consuming meat to consuming tofu almost everyday as well as started consuming vegetables again.

Albeit being vegetarian, I try to reduce my rice consumption. Thus, I mainly mixed rolled oats into my dishes.

I started shopping for groceries even more (which may not be such a good thing) but I was surprised at the number of items I could buy and only spend minimal.

Well, vegetables are cheap, which is good.

Changing my diet in combination with my usual routine at work and ensuring I reach my daily steps of 10,000 steps, I started losing weight.

Not much. However, I’ve been struggling with losing the weight that I have gained during my time off in the Surgical Posting.

Now that I’m non-vegetarian again, obtaining food is easier and I actually miss being vegetarian.

Perhaps soon I will embark on this journey again.

Iced Tea & Cold Brew Coffee

Click here for more articles & daily dose.

What is your favorite drink?

As the title entails, it is Iced Tea and Cold Coffee.

1. Iced Tea

Photo by Barbara Webb on Pexels.com

I fell in love with tea, green tea, black tea and oolong tea in particular when I was 14 years old.

At that time, I was looking into drinks to aid my weight loss and I came across green tea and oolong tea being suitable drinks in facilitating weight loss when consumed without sugar.

Thus, I brewed my first proper sugarless green tea and fell in love with the taste. Ever since then, I started drinking it on a regular basis and it has pretty much replaced water for me.

Did it aid with weight loss?

Perhaps in the beginning, eventually, I continued drinking it because I enjoyed the taste be it warm or cold.

As I started working, I would usually prepare cold brew green tea in order for me to bring to work the following day.

Why cold?

The environment that I’m working in can get rather warm and considering I am a person who perspires easily, the temperature of the tea eases me and provides immediate rejuvenation.

Even after a long day at work, nothing refreshes me more than a cold brew green tea served in mason jar and a straw.

2. Cold Coffee

Photo by Marta Dzedyshko on Pexels.com

I am a HUGE fan of coffee, black sugarless coffee in particular.

My love for coffee began since I was in primary school, which I think is a bad thing since children are not supposed to consume coffee.

Back then, my mother would used to prepare coffee for my father and milo for me prior to my father sending me off to school and heading to work.

Me and my father would then switch drinks after he has drank half of his drink.

Then, when I turned 14 years old, I started pulling an all nighter or getting up at midnight just to study.

Eventually, I developed immunity towards coffee and is able to fall asleep even after consuming it. Thus, I merely consume it out of addiction and routine.

As I started working, as mentioned in my explanation for cold tea, the environment is rather warm for me to be consuming hot coffee. Hence, I would prepare my mason jars of coffee the night prior and transfer it into my flask the following day.

My Reflection of 2024

Related Posts:

Albeit it being March 2025, at the time of writing this article, let’s take a walk down memory lane.

2024 started with me being in the Obstetrics & Gynaecology (O&G) Department and ended with me being in the Medical Department.

Each department has its own sweet memory of which I shall cherish when I reflect upon my days as a House Officer.

2024 was also the year I took a 6-week-break from my journey as a House Officer, unintentionally, while I was in the Surgical Posting which was a good break indeed. It felt more like a school holiday and I returned home and was being pampered by my family and loved ones.

Sadly, it was also the time I regained all my weight that I have successfully lost along my journey as a House Officer and have more or less kept it on since then.

The struggle to lose weight has returned and amidst the busyness, I still somehow managed to eat which certainly did not help with my weight management.

2024 was also the year I met my partner and best friend as well as his family. My circle of loved ones have been expanded of which I am truly grateful and blessed. Despite being in a long distance relationship, we both try our best to make time for each other everyday which was not at all hard and leaned onto each other for moral support. It made my journey even easier and lovelier.

In short, 2024 flew by rather quickly just like every year. But, it was a beautiful year, one that’s filled with love and multiple odd and funny experiences as well as important ones.

There were challenges as well. The year would not be complete or interesting without it. However, I pulled through or else I would not be writing this reflection today.

As for 2025?

I’m hopeful and I know , it’s going to be another interesting and beautiful year.

My Morning Routine Being A House Officer Leader In The Surgical Posting | Housemanship Diaries

Related Posts:

There are three main leaders in the Surgical Posting. One is in charge of curating the weekly schedule, the other, in charge of ward and cubicle / bed allocations as well as to reallocate if there are any people who took emergency leaves or medical leaves and the third one, in charge of our attendance at work.

I was the daily allocator. Being the “allocator”, I would be in charge of designating the house officers to the selected cubicles of both the male and female surgical wards (MSW and FSW), the Peri, EMOT and ETD as well as to look for substitutes if there are any last minute changes or leaves.

Usually, I will prep my allocation in advance after the schedule leader has done the schedule and make necessary changes along the way. The leader in charge of the schedule usually determines which person works the night shift and when as well as to approve any leaves. Usually, the house officers will be divided into their respective wards.

The night before, I usually run through the suggested allocation in the “Leaders Group” with the medical officers in charge of the House Officers to screen through.

After receiving the green light from them or making necessary adjustments, I would then upload the list in the House Officer’s group. Thus, they would then know where they would be covering.

The list is usually sent in the “MOHO” group, meaning the group containing the House Officers and Medical Officers at 6:30 a.m.

Thus, I would wake up and be on standby at 5am everyday, even on my off days as I would wait for any messages should anybody take medical leaves or emergency leaves and make the necessary adjustments needed.

At 6:30 a.m sharp, I forward the daily allocation into the “MOHO” group.

If I happened to be working on that day, I would pause in between work just to send and then go about my work.

However, if I happened to be on leave or having my off days, I would then return to sleep or go about my other activities after 6:30 a.m.

It was an interesting experience having had the privilege to hold the position as one of the posting leaders.

Daily writing prompt What bores you? View all responses

Lots of things bore me.

Fascism bores me. Especially American fascism. Doesn’t it bore you? We fought a war back in the 1940’s to put an end to bullshit like this, didn’t we? How did we forget about that? Boring.
The maga cult and the qanon farce bore me. Reality is a thing. Facts are things. Everything that maga and q stand for are fictions. There’s a difference, you know? Claiming that idiotic fictions are facts is just boring.
Racism is boring. Thinking someone is less than you because of their skin color is the dumbest thing humanity has ever dreamed up. It bores me to tears.
Denying Americans their civil rights is boring. I mean, we have these documents that define everyone’s rights. Taking those rights away is both un-american and painfully boring.
Denying Americans healthcare is disgustingly boring, especially when the basis is gender. I mean, what part of the bill of rights gives you the right to tell an American woman what she can and cannot do with her own body? What part of the bill of rights gives you the right to tell another American what their gender is or is not. Fuck you and stop being so idiotically boring.
Denying the opportunity to immigrate into the United States when the United States is literally a nation built by immigrants is just ridiculously boring. Your family came here from another country (and unless you’re a native American that applies to all of us) but if someone else tries to come here from another country they can’t. Screw you, you boring nazi filth.
Country music bores me. BORING!

How is that for a list of things that bore me? There are a lot more things I could add to the list, but this will do for now.
