WEEKLY JOURNAL
Week 1
During the first day of our work immersion, we were endorsed by the assigned teacher to the supervisor. After the endorsement, I was assigned to the health center. The task that was given to me was to keep a log book of every clients who gets their medicine, blood pressure, weight, and height in the barangay health center. I sometimes get confused by their actions and words. I experienced a lot during my first week at the barangay health center. Within a week of work immersion, I just do it over and over again, just like the one where the health center is quiet and then suddenly there are more people inside the center, it will be quiet again. Another thing that I have experienced is sometimes confusion with the drugs because the name is the same, so I thought it was just a different color, but the dosage was the same; it turned out to be a different color, a different dosage. It's also been my experience to encounter a client with a bad attitude, like the way she or he talks to the health center staff. But I let it go because if we have the same attitude, we won't have a good conversation. I also experienced being close to people who I had just met for a short period of time and had a good connection with. My achievement is that within this week, I slowly memorized the medicine dosage, name, where it was placed, and what the use of that kind of medicine was. Also, I counted this as one of my achievements: I now know how to read a manual scale. Before I get confused, because there are too many lines, after all the experiences I encountered and the achievements I make, I just realized that life is not as simple as it looks. If you go to a barangay or any establishment and see them doing their work, it may look easy, but once you experience it, you will know it's not that easy.

Week 2
During my second week of work immersion in barangay Lubogan, which is way easier for me, I have become closer to the staff at the health center. I experienced a lot during my second week at the barangay health center. Every day, I met different kinds of people dealing with different attitudes. When it's not too busy or they don't ask me to do anything at the health center, I ask if I can go to the daycare first so I can help my partner there. One of my other experiences was when I decided to help at daycare. The environment at daycare is very different because, as usual, it is noisy, crowded, and happy, unlike at the health center, where the silence is deafening and there is not much work when there is no program. At daycare, it's a lot, but it's fun. When I started helping at the daycare, I got to know the different habits of the children there. What we do there is guide the students on what to do. The tireless dancing and singing will not disappear. Since I stayed at the daycare, I have memorized the routine. My help at the daycare is an addition to my experience. I also experienced being close to people who I had just met for a short period of time and had a good connection with. The challenge that I encountered during my second week of work immersion was when there was a flag ceremony of functionaries and staff in a ward that I was assigned to get their BP. It was okay at first, but when the number of people increased, we had a bit of a problem. I'm also with me because the machine we use is only two, and it takes us a long time when the BP we take is high. I have already done an interview, so they don't have to wait for us for a long time. Reflecting on my enriching experience during work immersion, I encountered various challenges while working in both a daycare and a health center. Despite the hurdles, I embraced each obstacle as an opportunity to learn and grow, developing resilience and a deeper understanding of the vital roles these settings play in fostering well-being.
