First Theatre Day
5 maja 2023, Australia ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C
Today was my first theatre list in the hospital. I had a mix of laparoscopic and EUA procedures. They are incredibly efficient and got the 4 cases finished by midday. The consultant brought everyone coffee after the first case, and I was able to do some airway management and scrub to do a laparoscopic case. After that, it was the consultant's birthday, so one of the nurses made a delicious spiced apple cake that we shared on the break room terrace. The surgeons get free lunch at the hospital, so I had a chicken curry. Next, I sat and relaxed on the terrace and went to the medical school to finish some work. I then texted Tom, and we met up in town for dinner. We spent ages looking for an Indian restaurant and managed to get lost a few times. We eventually went to Vapiano (an Italian restaurant) and got some bubble tea. I had a mango one and it was delicious. Unfortunately, I was shattered, so I went back and fell asleep at 11 PM.

Today I woke up and went to the Wesley. I was running slightly late, so I used an e-scooter to travel in, saving 25 minutes on my normal journey. I was in a morning theatre list, then I left to attend a cardiac list. Unfortunately, it was a new procedure, and the cardiac surgeon told me it was “a day to hit the books”. I then went to the medical school for a student case presentation, then came home and had lunch. The cleaners came to change the linen, so I had lunch on the balcony. Next, I went into town, got a new flash drive for my DJ set, and went food shopping. After phoning Mum on the way back, I watched Netflix and relaxed for the rest of the evening! Czytaj więcej

Today I woke up and walked to St Andrew's War Memorial Hospital for a spinal surgery list. I got to do a load of anaesthetics with a nice anaesthetist and watch the procedures on the display.

Afterwards, I checked the next day's theatre list and went home. I had dinner, went out, got some frozen yoghurt, and explored the art exhibits at the park. I built a light lily and put it on one of the statues. I also saw the light-up fountains and some smoke-filled bubbles. After a crazy evening of beautiful art, I headed home! Czytaj więcej

Today I woke up at 5 AM after getting to bed at 1 AM. Tom and I got ready and got the train to the domestic flight airport. We then booked a hotel as the Airbnb was not available. We got coffee and breakfast, and as we got on the plane, I got a second charge for an Airbnb we had tried to book. As I got on the plane, I contacted Airbnb and asked them to cancel it. On the flight, I listened to music and looked out the window. When we landed in Sydney, I got confirmation that the Airbnb was cancelled. We got a train down to the harbour, saw the Sydney Opera House, and walked around the harbour. We then went around the botanical gardens, found a lovely pizza and sandwich shop, and had lunch. Next, we walked to the hotel and went shopping along the way. After checking in, we unpacked and went to a Chinese market and then a Nepalese restaurant for dinner! Finally, we walked back to the hotel and planned the weekend. Once planned, we went to bed to catch up on some sleep! Czytaj więcej
