shouts of joy
I run over to see
the presents

christmas cake
while writing out charts
I stuff my face

I was typing out charts in a secluded room when I heard shouts of joy coming from the female staff in the staff room. Surely, something delicious had appeared! I ran to take a look, and saw a whole bunch of cake. This was the hospital chief’s master plan.

Instead of dinner, we all ate cake and then got back to work.
