today is..

unforgettable. remarkable. treasured. cherished. precious. important. memorable. SIGNIFICANT.

today i feel..

happy. overjoyed. jubilant. euphoric. cheerful. joyful. jovial. ecstatic. exultant. fortunate. BLISSFUL.

nonetheless,
today is ineffable. :)

i dont understand why i've been such a lazy bum lately. i usually would get my fat ass off my bed or couch and go out with friends since it's sembreak. but for some unknown reason, im toooooo lazy to get up. i ditch laag sessions to sleep, watch WOWOWEE and just chill around our house.

 is this an after effect of first sem horror? haha.

anyway, kaka and i went to the mall to look for a mask for romina's upcoming bday bash. it wasn't too hard to find one because it is after all, halloween. a lot of masks were up for grab. from simple glittery masks, to gayish feathery looking ones. haha.

kaka then had this brilliant idea of cutting the mask in half. vertically. since the idea was great plus we really didn't have money, (we spent it on food. kaka bought 3 house of panini while i bought one and a large fries.) we decided to buy only one mask. he plans on improvising his side of the mask  cause i chose the side w/c already had decorations. haha. (which by the way is fair, coz he paid less than half of the original price of the mask. hehe.)

back to my problem..  any tips on self-motivation? HAHA.

It’s been 3 months since my last post. how sad. hahaha. im sorry my dear blog. we’ve been so busy lately. RD’s, synthesis and reaction papers, and projects kept piling up last sem. but finally, it’s OVER. this means only one thing.. its summertime!  ESTE. SEMBREAK time! (ngeeee. hahaha. laugh ba!)

anyhoo.  a lot of things happened within those 3 months. some of the significant experiences were my RD bloopers.

For example:

CBB RD (Cleansing Bed Bath)

[PCI means Practicing Clinical Instructor]

 

j9: ah..ma'am..maghugas na ta sa imong reproductive organ..

PCI:reproductive organ jud miss? unsa pa ma'y tawag ana?

j9: ah... private organ?

PCI:kasabot ba diay imong pasyente ana?

j9: vagina?

PCI: dili..unsa ma'y tawag ana? naa pa ma'y lain..

j9:KALULUWA ma'am?

PCI: unsa'y kaluluwa?

j9: KALAG ma'am!

grabe tuloy tawa ng PCI and ng partner ko ni2.

 

Also, while it was her time to be the student nurse and I was her patient, she forgot to test the temperature of the water. When she dipped my foot onto the basin, the water was excruciatingly HOT! I kept lifting my foot up but she held onto my foot and dipped it firmly onto the basin.  I couldn’t complain because points would be deducted from her if I did. And besides, while she was my patient, she never uttered a single complaint even if I did a lot of mistakes during the procedure. It was my only way to pay her back for that. Luckily in the end, we both passed that RD despite the mishaps. :)

by far, the most fun lecture in RD was external douche.
it is the washing of genitals and anal area w/ plain water or medicated solutions.
(naks. perfect definition!) hahaha.
moving on..

the CI first discussed the anatomy of the female genitals.
nothing fun there. HAHAHA. joke.
then we talked about the male's anatomical part.
*GIGGLE* (HAHAHA. joke ulit.)

DID U KNOW??

males have a reflex called CREMASTERIC reflex. it is the "rising" of their.. um.. u know what during 3 am! cool eh??
hahaha. i dont know. this fun fact just amuse me. hehehe.

HEY HEY HEY!
HOOLIDEY!! (????!) hahaha.

i gotta new cellphone! *raise ur hands up in the air and sing like u just dont care!!*

it's 5610 xpress music! my mom wondered why i didn't buy another n73. and i told her i don't want to bring back the GOOD memory of losing a phone. haha. and what a coincidence! the t-shirt i was wearing when i lost my phone, was the same shirt i wore when we bought the 5610! i didn't realize this until my mom told me so. hehe. and since i was so excited about it, i forgot about my baggage at the baggage counter. i seriously didn't remember that i left something. it was even my mom who reminded me about that when we got home. so i went back to gmall to claim it and unfortunately, the rain caught up w/ me and i kinda got wet... until i saw my kuya w/ 2 umbrellas at the bakeshop! my mom told him to go to the kanto because she said she had this "feeling" na im almost home. and she was right!! hehe. iba talaga kapag c MOMMY. naks. haha.

PS. my number is 09052692772. forever GLOBE. dahil sa GLOBE, abot mo ang mundo. (hahaha. un ba un?!)

was a complete disaster.

i came to school kinda prepared for our return demonstration on OCCUPIED bedmaking. but our C.I.s had a change of heart and decided that we either have to do UNOCCUPIED, OBSTETRICAL, POST-OPERATIVE and OCCUPIED. it was randomly chosen through a piece of paper. unluckily, the paper i picked revealed, "POST-OPERATIVE".

it wasn't called a RD because almost every procedure i did was wrong. especially tucking and mitering the linens. i just couldn't get the "make a square then double triangle thing". good thing that when she turned around away from me, i hurriedly tucked the bottom sheet and top sheet under the mattress so she won't see that i couldn't do it. the PCI that guarded me was nice but she was a perfectionist. but still it was kinda ok with me because i learned the right way of making the perfect bed for patients to be comfortable. naks. haha.

anyhoo, i know i failed in bedmaking. but at least i got a 91. something in medical handwashing. wohoo! one passed one failed!

im looking forward for our next RD w/c is complete bed bath. it's gonna be pretty interesting because we're gonna do it by partners and i think we have to strip some of our clothes. too bad it's girl to girl or boy to boy. HAHAHAAHA. joke.

AVOCADO.

i became nostalgic last night when my mom told me i was gonna eat avocado for dessert. i couldn't say no because knowing my mom, she won't take 'no' for an answer, thus leaving me with no choice but to eat it.

as far as i can remember, avocado has always been my nemesis. there was never a time in my life that i appreciated how it tastes. that's why i get baffled when people tell me that avocado is good. because for me, it never was or will ever be.

when i was still young, i was really skinny. maybe this is because of me wanting to play, rather than eat. it takes like 2 hours for me to finish my food. my yaya would follow me around w/ her back bent over, her right hand w/ the spoon and the other to grab my shirt since i was difficult to catch. anyway, my mom devised numerous ways to make me fat. and one of those is avocado.

as soon as avocado session starts, my mom prepares a full glass of water and a whole cup of sugar. then i'd fill my avocado w/ sugar and sit in our dining table for more than two hours either staring or eating a bit of the avocado. but of course i wouldn't let avocado get to me. if opportunity comes, like when my mom goes to her room or something, i would throw half of it in the bin and cover it w/ other trash. then i'd get back to my seat as if nothing happened. if the opportunity doesn't come, i would pretend to vomit and say that im really really full and that another bite would upset my stomach. if all else failed, i cry. i would make myself look pathetic for them to take pity. usually, it's effective. hahaha.

this time though, i don't throw it in the bin, vomit or cry. i guess i finally understood why my mom would force me to eat avocado. that's why in the not so distant future, i'd also force my children to eat avocado. bcoz. vengeance is sweet! nyahahaha. kiddin.

*actually, depende nlng kung ma-afford kong makabili ng avocado owing to the fact that every week tumataas ang presyo ng gasolina plus other stuff. paano nlng yan 10 yrs from now??! ano ang ipapakain ko sa MGA anak ko? SAGING?! (haha.) *

Bitter emotions in the odorless air

Black rage coming to bare

High-pitched scream filled the empty room

Emptied shining light of noon

Foreseen from the very start

Green-eyed monster has overpowered thy heart

-the poem i made when Sir Igpit asked us to write about emotions. i got a perfect score by the way. HAHA.

To laugh is to risk appearing a fool

To weep is to risk appearing sentimental

To reach out to another is to risk involvement

To expose feelings is to risk rejection

To place dreams before the crowd is to risk ridicule

To love is to risk not being loved in return

To go forward in the face of overwhelming odds is to risk failure

But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering or sorrow, but he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or love.

Chained by his certitudes he is a slave.

He has forfeited his freedom.

Only a person who takes risks is free.

-i was looking for this everywhere before. i just found it a few minutes ago while cleaning my room. this is just some of the stuff i learned from Sir Rivamonte. :)

on March 28, 2007, i was ecstatic when i received my graduation gift..

n73 music edition.

EXACTLY one year and two months later..

IT'S GONE.

waaaaaaaaaah! :c

as i was on my way home from the gym, i didn't notice that my bag was being SLICED open for the magnanakaw to reach in for my phone. i swear i didn't feel a thing talaga. when i got off the jeep, i noticed that my bag was kinda damaged then i realized, my phone was nowhere to be seen.  then it hit me. my phone was SNATCHED. GONE. NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN.

as i got home, i immediately tried to call it but sadly, mr. magnanakaw either turned it off or threw away my simcard..

AAAAARGGHHH!!!! P**** I*** niya! G****! S***! F** Y**!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(sorry. ngaun lang nagsink in sakin eh. im in the stage of acceptance plus lamenting na rin. haha.)
