Week 3 - Be Thankful

"Be Thankful," That was the words that I heard all week long. Let's just say Christmas is approaching so that means we're giving gifts and share the love to all our loved ones. Week #3 of my internship in DMMC was great and this week is more productive compared to last week so Monday, I arrived at DMMC at exactly 7:30 am and that was good because in FPIP there's no traffic in morning every Monday so all is good and I'm excited to do some work. So 7:30 am I was at the hallway waiting for the office to open and while I'm waiting I played my favorite mobile game; NBA 2K17 of course. Then at exactly 7:55 am the office is now open and I greet all of the employees a good morning to all of them and now Mam Cris instructed me to photocopy the schedules and telephone directory of the doctors (50 pieces) then once I finished Mam Cris told me to give it to the information section. I went to the medical records to photocopy the schedules and the struggle is real for me because I forgot how to operate the photocopy machine! So I asked some assistance to demonstrate to me once again how to operate the photocopy machine and I'm thankful that one of the employees assisted me to operate the photocopy machine and now I gave it to the information section. That was the first struggle that I've encountered in my internship so far.. I hate you photocopy machine!! just kidding! 

The struggle is real :( 

And after that Jayson and I organized the prizes for the games of the upcoming Christmas party of the doctors at The Park Events Center in Makiling, Calamba, Laguna this Wednesday. There are a lot of prizes like the Ferrero that's for the winners of the games while the pineapple juices are for the consolation prizes. And after we organize the prizes we took a break for 15 minutes and then we went back afterwards. Back at the office I answered some calls coming from other departments and after that we took a lunch break together with my co interns in Accounting department. After that Jayson and I went back to our office and Mam Cris told us to bought the props for the games in doctor's Christmas party so Jayson and I went to Waltermart Tanauan to buy some props and there's one problem; In Waltermart they don't have a red cups. We went to UNO, Japan Homeplus and there are no red cups so we went to CitiMart and we found a red cups there so all is well and we went back to DMMC to give the props to Mam Cris and after that we took a rest and call it a day. 

Damn!! 

Tuesday. It's my grandfather's birthday and I hope he's in the good place with God #RIP. I arrived at DMMC at 7:32 am. And again I'm in the waiting game because I'm early as always. And my daily routine while on the waiting game... Play NBA 2K17 as always! And again Mam Cris told me to photocopy again the schedules and telephone directory of the doctors because the one of the doctor's schedule is not updated so it needs to be change and again I met the photocopy machine for 2nd time this week and the struggle is real once again!!! I asked again some assistance because the machine is not working and I'm thankful that one of the employees helped me again to do it then after that I gave it to the information section and unload the ones I gave yesterday.  And after that we prepare the things for the doctor's Christmas party because we will gonna deliver it to the events center. It composed of 10 boxes of wine, 5 boxes of prizes and other boxes for the props. It was kinda hard to carry those boxes because it is so heavy and also it is raining outside! But then suddenly we successfully delivered the things for the event and we went back to DMMC then suddenly I went back to the office and Mam Marylan gave me a box of pizza!! PIZZA!!! and it was perfect timing because I'm hungry so I'm thankful for that and I call it a day for Tuesday. 

Pizza will never break your heart :) 

Wednesday. Mam Cris told us yesterday that we don't need to go to DMMC in the morning and just go there at The Park Events Center at 1:00 pm to prepare the things for the doctor's Christmas party. The party will start at 7:30 pm so we have a lot of time to prepare for the event. First I was so confused what I'll wear on the event so Mam Cris told us that wear black polo shirt or long sleeves. So luckily I have black long sleeves so that's nice and also I'm confused what shoes that I'll gonna wear so I checked my sneaker boxes I have 2 choices. First is the Vans Sk8 High black and white classics from Vans or the classic Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG in "Yin Yang" colorway. I tried both of them which will match my outfit and I chose the Vans Sk8 High because I want my Air Jordan 1 to look more fresh in the future. And I arrived at the events center at 1:15 pm and now we start doing the gift wrapping for the doctor's giveaways which is the wine and the nuts. There are 80 giveaways for each doctors which is the wine and nuts and they are placed in the eco bags and 4 hours later the event officially started. There are few doctors are coming and Mam Cris told us that we need to buy some nuts because the doctors are drinking beer they need to have some snacks to match it so we went to WalterMart Makiling to buy some nuts and after that we went back to the events center and the dinner is under away. I saw the foods and I'm literally hungry when I saw the lechon and kare-kare! And after that the party was officially started the doctors played the games, won the raffle and Dra. Cabanela with Sir Mags gave the loyalty awards for some doctors who served in DMMC for 5-25 years and also they awarded the best costumes for male and female and lastly they celebrated by dancing on the floor all together! So here are some photos of what happened on Wednesday.

The event was a success and I'm thankful that I contributed and I'm also happy that I'm part of it. Thursday. I skipped because Mam Cris told us that she will not go to office and also allowed us not to come as well and she told us to rest for the whole day because we're tired of organizing the event. Friday, I arrived at DMMC at exactly 7:28 am. And as always I'm so early and while I'm waiting the office to open I played NBA 2K17 again and again. Our head Mam Cris is absent but she assigned us a task that we should fixed the calendars like to roll it and distribute each calendars to the doctors' clinics (30 pieces every clinic). Those calendars are for the patients and the remaining excess was sent to the cashier department. I didn't took some photos because I was so busy rolling and rolling the calendars and I went back and forth to the fourth floor because Mam Jen and Mam Marylan asked me to sent some things in the fourth floor. And after that I call it a day and I left DMMC at exactly 5:02 pm. 

Week 3 was a busy week for me but I enjoyed all of this because at the end of the day I'll gonna also experience this kind of work and working on overtime for organizing an event but all in all it was a productive and so far my busiest week and by the way Sir Jesse from Palaestra visited us earlier (Friday) and he asked us about our concerns regarding our internship in DMMC and also he told us some instructions regarding our internship and the graduation activities for next year and he told us that "Don't give up". This week so far the best week I've ever had in  my internship in DMMC and I hope there's more to come and there is always something to be thankful for. I would like to thank God for this wonderful and blessed week and giving me strength to do this work all week long and also His guidance. That's all for Week 3 and make sure you share this post or even my blog because it will help my blog to be more viral and also follow me on my social media accounts (the links are on my blog on the right side).
