Gak kerasa uda 7 bulan terlewati. So it's about 3 moths to go to finish this internship. Aku banyak belajar selama intern disini. Bukan literally belajar by open and read the text book. I mean learn how to live a life alone far away from home.
Belajar mandiri, dewasa dan accept this world is not as small as my house (though this place is not larger than my neighborhood). Belajar mengenal sifat roommates yang completely various. Even the tiniest thing could make me wishful. Like hoping for a bright sunny day so my laundry will get well dry so i've enough clothes to continue my days here. Or simply learnt how to brushing my clothes.
Selama 23 tahun ini aku gak pernah mikir ternyata pekerjaan mencuci baju itu selain butuh kesabaran, ketekunan juga butuh niat yang kuat. Cause the moment u intend to wash u must to responsible till the end. Responsible maksudku untuk siap2 berlapang dada kalo2 cucian yang setumpuk udah capek2 dicuci, di molto-in, diperas dan dijemur tiba2 semesta berkonspirasi dengan cucian kita dengan mendatangkan hujan. Believe me, it happened to me a lot! Since then, I really appreciate the laundryman job. They really have a tough occupation there. Selain masalah teknis kaya mendung, hujan, badai, banyak lagi masalah dalam mencuci baju ini. Kaya niat yang kuat, dan persiapan mental karena setelah mencuci yang memeras baju yang bikin tangan pegel harus dilanjutkan dengan menyetrika cucian yang udah kering. God bless all the laundryman!
Intinya sih ya selama internship di gunung tua ini aku banyak belajar susahnya jadi housekeeper. Malah aku jadi ngerasa jadi dokter gak seberat jadi housekeeper. Instead of washing, there's a huge responsibility on your shoulder to keep the house clean. Like making the bed, sweeping, wash the plates, mopping, buang sampah, sweeping, like never end! I am truly deeply appreciate this housekeeper doing. It ain't really simple job!
Once I told mama what I have done here. She seemed so surprised and grateful that her super lazy daughter willing to do all the things she never did at home. Yet her gratefulness can't hold a bit longer when I back home for awhile and found me completely forgot about all those tidy house thingy and back to the lazy one again. The disappointment hits her tough :D
Selain masalah bersih2 dan jaga rumah, internship juga ngajarin aku untuk toleransi.. Well, kami ber-9 di satu rumah. Dengan 9 kepala yang isinya beda2 semua, it's impossible to not hitting the fight. In the first month, we were argued a lot. But later on, we were try to hold our ego and try to get along together. It worked really well till now.
Ok, rasanya aneh kalo internship ini cuma menjadikan aku terlatih sebagai pembantu rumah tangga aja. Since internship ku ini bertujuan untuk menjadikan saya dokter yang turun ke desa dan melatih skill and confidence. So, i'd like to say, nothing much to hope for this internship. Expect less and grateful more is useful here. I can't expect for a weird, rare and interesting case but only a usual tiny case like common cold, dyspepsia or else.
Kata orang sih bawaan badanku yang sepi pasien dan selalunya dapet pasien yang biasa2 aja. Soalnya temen2 yang lain selalu dapet pasien yang aneh2 dan gawat. Satu2nya kasus penarik yang aku dapet tuh pas jaga malem IGD dipanggil jam 3 pagi untuk visum mayat kecelakaan lalu lintas (KLL). Untuk daerah lintas sumatera ini memang biasa dapet pasien KLL karena kebiasaan orang disini yang suka ngebut2 naik motor tanpa helm dan banyak kendaraan2 besar yang juga ngebut. Ya namanya juga jalan lintas ya..
I'll tell about my various boring patient in another post. The bottom line of this post is i'm grateful enough for being here this long. And I hope I learnt much from living alone in an unidentified place here.
