websaytko.com - raredog’s chronicle

I have read an article that it started here in the Philippines years ago, but only recently that it became popular and  mushroomed all over the place. And soon got its attention by the people and the business sector. Many schools now are offering Medical Transcription as a short-term course, and companies who are catering their transcribing services with clients abroad. The first time I knew about it is when I saw a segment on television, and after that I already got interested. They say it’s a promising and high-paying job. It happens that a school nearby our place is offering MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTION course (MTC Marikina Branch). So I enrolled into it, and now I’m on my fifth month in Academic Class and need 160 hours of OJT (On the Job Training). I can say that its not that easy although its fun, studying again, gaining friends, and at the same time learning new things.  Medical lectures is one of the major subject that you really need to focus, need to read a lot, I mean READ…READ…READ… to be familiar with all those tounge-twisting medical terminologiess and attain that 95% accuracy and transcribe at least 350 lines per day. And when it comes to transcription itself, that’s the time when I asked myself ” Did I make the right decision in taking this? “Gosh!!! It’s so intricate!!! Most specially when I encountered those hard to understand accent of the foreign dictators. But somehow, I managed to do the transcription little by little. I know and I hope that someday all these patience and hardship of mine will benefit me in the near future, and that is to be a successful “MEDICAL TRANSCRIPTIONIST”.

Here’s a photo of our class, with our lecturer having a birthday blowout inside our room in MTC Marikina.

At last a dotcom website of my own, after years of making websites mostly in geocities, and redirecting it to different free commercial domain, like cjb.net, lookscool.com, etc.. I can now proudly say to myself and everyone that I now have my own dotcom, With the help and teaching of my mastah/mentor Benj (benjarriola.com) he’s the one who told me about blogging and WordPress. By the way i’m raredog in the internet community, and been using that nick since 1998, but somebody has gotten it before me in yahoo, so I have change it to rare_dog. Since then I was planning to have a website, and that would obviously be raredog.com, that domain is very available, but my funds is not. Until the last time I checked it during 2005, got surprised when it already has an owner…waaahhhh!!!  and you guess it right, the site is really about dogs. Now I know that every second counts when deciding a domain for yourself or your company, that’s why when I’ve checked the availability of “websaytko” at DirectNic and found out its not taken yet, I’d hurriedly talk with Benj to have it registered for me, before somebody would. By the way “websaytko” is actually a Tagalog translation of “my website“. And to all of you out there…I’m not really an organized person, but here in websaytko.com, I will try my best to make it nice and tidy. Well here is my first blog. Welcome and Enjoy your stay here in websaytko.com.
