On to my 4th month, Summit Wellnes Center in Ortigas. To be honest with you, I am not sporty. I am not like that respected, buffy and fit PT intern I wished I was. Again, I was scared to be in this rotation, actually. <I realized, I am almost scared every single month of my internship life, I wonder why?>, now back to Summit Wellness Center. Their facility is one of the best, if not, the best center I have rotated to. Ambiance wise, PT tools and even the scent of the center was just sosyal. Speaking of sosyal, I willl also never forget where I stayed in Ortigas. I stayed at Goldland Millenia Suites, 24th floor, overlooking the busy and ever-traffic scene of Pasig and the sleekiest (I think) I stayed in my entire dorm life. Back again, earlier, I said that I am not that into sports though I have learned a lot in this batch. ACL repair, Post operative sports rehabilitation, name it, they have it!

Home Base! De La Salle University Medical Center and Academic Rotation for September. I felt really comfortable with my stay here. I get to be with my batchmates, eat in favorite lunch place (Certz 'to syempre-- (tama ba spelling ko?) ), and live in our home again <yey!> Yup, i need to tell you that it was pretty hassle to treat patients in the morning, study your lessons at lunch and teach juniors and seniors in the afternoon though again, we got no choice but deal with it. I love my job as a PT Intern and I even love teaching more. So what more can I ask for? This was my dream: to be a clinician and an instructor. This month was one of the fastest too. With a blink of an eye, it was done. It was one month of laughter and fulfillment. On this rotation, I have also realized something (I'll blog this next time).

Diba nga, I am not sporty? Hello Moro Lorenzo Sports Center tayo for 2 months! (October-November) The facility is found inside Ateneo de Manila University in Katipunan. Don't get me wrong, Yes, I study in La Salle but I get to treat athletes from the blue side. Bittersweet it is. I still remember, it was UAAP season 79 Men's Basketball Championship. It was DLSU against the university where I was rotated. I and Shie (my lasallian co-intern) was really torn because we get to see our present patients lose; though, hello? Animo La Salle padin forever! There, we stayed for 2 long months. I have realized that I am not really into sports PT but I have gained the things I will bear with me forever (wow naman) and that is determination and passion in what I do. I got to meet these wonderful and nationally known Sports PTs: mga idol! The only thing I wouldn't want at Moro was my shift :( I was asigned from 11AM to 8PM for straight 2 months. I am a morning person BTW.

to be continued... (yung totoo, hanggang ilang part kaya 'to?)
