Today is a national holiday in lieu of Japanese National Foundation Memorial Day that falls on a Sunday (Feb. 11). My hospital is closed as well as most other hospitals. However, as for me, I'm in my office now. Today is my turn to stay in my hospital for hospitalized patients.
Fortunately all the hospitalized patients are stable. It means that I have a lot of time to spend freely. Although it's duty hours now, I'm going to read some books and learn German, one of my hobbies.
