2011-01-14T21:41:00.002+08:00

2011 na, and yet, bigla kong naisip na buhayin ang matagal nang naghihingalong blog na ito after reading sir jester's blog. biglang magreminisce ba... haha

bahala na. been planning to have a blog again for a long time na din. i've actually created a tumblr account, wala nga lang talaga time. a ewan, bahala na! ^^

I Think I'm Paranoid

2009-06-17T18:08:00.004+08:00

Whoever will tell me that nursing is easy surely don't know what they're talking about. It's like living in hell.

First of all, you are already offering your service for free in exchange for a simple Certificate of Employment, yet most hospitals requires a lot of training before they can hire you.

They'll look for all the certifications that they can (i.e. BLS, IVT and even ACLS) which would cost a lot... and I mean A LOT. One seminar would cost about 3k. And to top that, a couple of them requires you to submit a copy of your Certificate of Registration, to which unfortunately takes months for PRC to process.

Although I'm fortunate to have a hospital to work with, I'm not fully decided on accepting its offer primarily because it is not a tertiary hospital in which most recruitment agency is requiring, and it's about an hour's ride from where I'm living.

I'm still currently in the hunt for a hospital nearby. Actually, I've been to one who's willing to hire me... after the release of my IVT id, which will take about 6 months top.

God, I just wished I never took up nursing!!!

Start of Something New

2009-06-08T21:27:00.003+08:00

It's the return of the comebacks...

For quite sometime, I've been dreading on reviving this blog and just last night, i think all the planets aligned and made me create, basically edit, a new layout for my blog... and here it is, I'm BACK!!!

I don't really know if i should be doing this again... I've lost my writing mojo years ago, ever since leaving DLSU four-five years ago, but here I am making a new attempt. Maybe its has something to do with my plans of brushing up my english skills, but also, maybe i have lots of things to rant again. hahaha

I do enjoy writing though, either writing about something or not. It keeps me... THINKING. Thinking not only about the things that transpired earlier on, but to think if that thing made a different in my life. I do love to look back... and reminisce.

Oh well.

Too much things has happened the last 6-7 months i've been here. I've been bummed waiting for the results of my exams and thankfully passed it, had a couple of trainings to enhanced my skills, planned a lot for my future, oh, and Kris Allen winning the AI... I do feel like i've been in a cave for those months not writing about them...

I DID missed writing. And I hope this won't be my last post in a while. I'm crossing my fingers, wishing that this is indeed the start of something new.

NLE fever

2008-11-28T02:08:00.004+08:00

It’s 1:42AM on my clock, and I still can’t sleep. I don’t know if my nerves is starting to get into me or it’s just my housemates’ initiative to review that is still keeping me awake.

Although I’m still reading the “topics” that most review center gives to its reviewees during final coaching, nothing’s entering my brain. Or maybe there is, I just can’t distinguish it correctly if there really is. Hahaha

I’m so overwhelmed with so many emotions that my brain isn’t functioning properly. I’m euphoric that finally, after the long wait, I’ll be taking the NLE, but I’m also quite afraid that I can’t measure up to the standards set upon me by the school president, the dean, my clinical instructors, friends and relatives. It’s really nerve racking. And then there is sadness, leaving the friends I’ve made in the review center, and the staffs and lecturers who’ve molded me into whom I am now even for that short period of time.

Oh well, God bless me on Saturday and Sunday, as well as the 88,749 board exam takers. If only there’s such a thing as 100% passing rate for the local boards. How I wish. hahaha

The End Is Near

2008-11-20T09:35:00.006+08:00

8 more days to go!!!

A lot of people I know are already in a terrible state of panic as the NLE becomes nearer and nearer. I was one of them, but that was a long time ago. Come to think about it, I should be worried sick about it too, but I’ve learned. It’s nothing that I should be bothered about, really!

I’m one of the chosen few from our school whom the president is expecting to TOP the board, and that should already be a big burden for me. Add to that that I’ve been reviewing for it in more than a year already, big thanks to our school for getting us an in-house review (sarcastically speaking!) and I’ve took two review classes already (thanks to last season’s scandalous mishaps). That’s too much for an ordinary guy for me to handle, right?

But I’ve already been fretting for it for almost a year now. Should I continue worrying until the day of the exam? Hell no! I came to realize that I’ll be taking this exam for myself and nobody else. Whatever the results are, I’ll gladly accept it. Topping it would just be an icing in the cake. Seems too sweet to hear, but I’m not aiming at it at all.

It’s not that I’m lowering my expectations, I’m just being realistic. With the biggest number of applicants for the Nursing Board ever in the history of the country, you’ll surely be thinking twice if you really are the ONE! With all the good schools having students taking the board, who am I from a community college to dream that high?

It seems anticlimactic, but I rather take pleasure in the remaining days reviewing than be fretting about what might happen in the coming days. I’ve been thru too much already, and it’s time to have fun. It’s time to ignore the people who are expecting much from me. I’m pretty much happy by just passing the board exam. Life’s short, I’ll rather enjoy it as much as I can!

Back to Reality

2008-01-01T18:00:00.000+08:00

January 1 na. 3 days na lang, balik school nanaman. Bakit kasi kelangan pa ng integrated na review pa ang college for the board when magrereview din kami after graduating? They really love making things complicated!

Then on monday, di ko pa alam kung tuloy kami for Manila for this national quiz bee. I've been waiting for the SMS of our coach pero la pa din. Then di pa ko nakakastart magreview! WAAAAHHHHH!

Great! I'm being to pessimistic on the first day of the year. hahaha E it'll be another three months before i'll have a vacation this long, kaya siguro ganun. Oh well...

On the other hand, super busog ako last night. My mum ordered this lechon de leche pero and deniliver is a small lechon so anlaki ng diff, e 5 lang kami dito sa house. Ayun, nilamutak namin kagabi and 1/4 na lang ata yun naiwan. Then medyo dry yun fettucine alfredo, kaya pinakialaman ko nanaman and nagtimpla ng another set of the sauce. Haha Good thing, i'm trying to gain more weight so sana me effect ang paglamon ko! hahaha

Saya, Year 2008 na. Sana tumaba na ako! hahaha

Later!

Crossroads

2007-12-31T13:19:00.001+08:00

Currently, there's just 11 hours to go before the year ends, and as a new one starts, it leaves me thinking where am i heading.

In 12 more weeks, I'll be graduating from mg BSN course, and yet, i don't know what am i supposed to do next. Well, I have plans of taking the local board, but working as a nurse is another issue. I'm almost fed up with it after almost two years of clinical exposure. It just becomes tedious and boring.

I do have some other options besides working in a hospital, but still, i need to waste at least a year's worth of my time in one in order for those other options to be realized. I can't just escape from working in one.

Though I can also work beyond the nursing world! But that is not an option as of the moment. A lot of people would just be angry at me if do so.

I'm quite confused right now! I really, really hope for the new year to give me the guidance that i need!

Later!

emo?

2007-08-27T20:06:00.000+08:00

emo ba ako? hindi e. la lng, trip, trip lang.... kakatamad kasing magisip ng concept for a blogskin e i don't wanna use naman a downloaded skin dahil for sure dami din meron at meron akong magiging kapareho. oh well.

been too busy lately. kamiss magblog!!!

It just won't die

2007-06-22T17:38:00.000+08:00

my blog, that is. i just can't give up on it, though it takes me almost a month to create a new entry. hehe

i've really been busy these couple of weeks. i didn't enjoy my supposed 2 weeks break after my last duty a month ago. i have too much things to do that i can't even find time to unwind.

first, i've finally finished our, ooops, my thesis. well, i've done it on my own anyways, so i have the right to call it mine. haha after a lot of revisions, finally, i've finished it. and it's a fulfillment for me. i've even rewarded myself an ipod. haha top that!

then there's this org election next week where i'm supposed to run unopposed for the presidency. i don't even have a platform as of now and the election is next week. i'm doomed! well, i've only had my line-up filled just yesterday afternoon, and that ain't a good sign too. haha let's just hope everything works out fine.

another thing, i'm trying to get my back-subjects this sem in order for me to graduate next sem. well, because i have duties for 3 days a week and lectures during the remaining 2 days, the only choice i have to get those subjects is thru tutorial. I really hope it's the modular type so i don't have to spend my saturdays on school too. its just 5 units anyways. haha

then i've been assigned to a new toxic CI who doesn't even want to sit down during our duty. He wanted us to do something when we are doing nothing. Heck, he wanted us to know every detail inside the chart of our patient have. Waaahh...

Well, i really hope i do find time to keep this alive. hehe

Later!

may friendster na ko!!!

2007-05-23T17:00:00.000+08:00

After mga 4 years na iniwasan kong gumawa ng account sa friendster, di ko alam kung anong nakain ko kahapon at napagawa ako ng account. Super biglaan talaga, sobra! Dami ko ng invites sa email add ko, di ko lang talaga pinapansin until yesterday.

Well, maybe it has something to do with the latest person to invite me to create an account. Isa siya sa mga taong nakilala ko while on affiliation sa Mental Hospital and hirap kayang magkaroon ng communication especially when someone is from somewhere far away and whom you only knew for quite sometime. Syempre, ayaw ko din mawala yung opportunity to know people, that's why instead of going with my norms, i went out and created an account.

Saya nga e, la din masyadong bagong features ang friendster since the first time na nakita ko ito. It's almost the same thing, except before na di mo pa puede ipersonalize ang page mo and syempre, wala pa din siyang blogging features. Nasasayangan nga ako dun sa account na ginawa ng friend ko para sa akin, dahil di ko talaga maalala yung email addy na ginamit nya.

Oh well, now I'm ordinary... Haha

BTW, pa-add naman diyan total ito na rin ang topic! Nyahaha francis.chris@gmail.com

Thanks

Magpakailanman?

Do you think our blogs will still be around after we are gone?

It seems kind of fascinating to think about this. I mean the internet has turned to a sort of history record of everything that’s going on. As you know there are servers that save every site they encounter, web images so to speak. You can access many pages from search engines that have been cached so that if you don't find the site working that second you can click on the "cached" link and bring up what the site looked like back in time.

I wonder how long they'll hold these images of web pages and everything you and I write will be around for our children, grand children etc... Are these pages of our lives going to be a record of us for our ancestors? Will my great grand children read what I wrote here... some of them maybe thinking, "Damn, my granddad’s a mess!" ;)

Think for a moment the next thing you write on the web, what message do you want to send them? The people of your life... the people of your life’s future.... What one thing do you want to be remembered for? Can you put something like that in words? I challenge you all to think about what you write sometimes and remember that what you write may be around forever. What do you want to tell those people... if anything at all? I might have to get back to you on my answer.

Note: Nahukay ko lang to sa mga files ko kanina, di ko maalala kung napost ko na to sa old blog ko dahil kasama nya yung mga entries ko way back when. haha

shooting blanks

2007-04-09T18:00:00.000+08:00

Alam mo yung mga araw na halos wala kang magawa't nakatunganga ka na lang sa ceiling nagbibilang ng mga butiking dumadaan? Isa ang araw na ito sa mga iyon.

As in super bagal ng oras, tapos wala namang matinong gawin. Buksan ko man ang TV, wala namang magandang panoorin. Nag-net na din ako pero tinamad ako after kung sumagot ng 2 chain mails ng mga kaibigan ko. Sobrang boring talaga.

Gusto ko man lumabas, wala din akong mayaya. Depressed ang mga tao, ewan ko ba kung anong meron. Tapos papadeliver din sana kami ng shobe ko ng ice craze, e hindi din pala nagdedeliver ang Jollibee nun kaya no use. Bakit ba me delivery pa sila e hindi din pala puede order ko?

Tapos maghahanap ka ng katext, walang naka-unli... Pano ba naman kasi, expired na yung 5 days nila tapos bukas pa magkakapera dahil walang baon kaya ayan, stuck talaga ako dito na wala lang. Saya-saya talaga.

Ang tagal ng bukas, ito yung mga araw na miss mo talagang pumasok kahit na alam mong magrereact kang wala sanang pasok once na pumasok ka. E kaysa naman kasi nakatunganga lang ako dito, at least pag pumasok ako, may baon, unlike nito na wala. Reklamador talaga...

Buhay nga naman talaga, hinahanap kung ano ang wala.

A ewan, sana bukas na at baka masiraan pa ako dito sa kakahanap ng wala.

2007-04-02T17:39:00.000+08:00

habang ang iba ay nagplaplano pa lang ng bakasyon nila, ako'y balik duty kanina. sakit sa katawan sobra, lalo pa't alam mong umpisa ng semana santa tapos ika'y asa loob ng hospital habang ang iba'y nagsasaya...

okay lang sana kung sa Delivery Room ako inilagay dahil kelangan ko talaga ng delivery cases, e ibinalik ba naman ako sa Operating Room kung saan e halos tapos ko na ang cases ko. Gusto kong imaster ang OR, pero sa tatlong araw lang naming stay, what can i learn from that? Tapos next week balik na naman akong Nursery, e tapos ko na rin ang cases ko doon e. I want to have a break... hahaha

Buhay Nursing nga naman talaga, walang kapahinga-pahinga. Tapos last week ni hindi man lang ako nakapagstay sa loob ng bahay ng isang buong araw sa kakaantay ng grades... Ayun, syempre pumasa dahil nga me pasok ako ngayon, pero tapos na ang term ng aking pagiging half-scholar. Kinulang ang grades ko para sa cut-off, actually, parang wala ngang academic scholar sa batch namin last sem dahil bitin ang mga grades namin. Dean's Lister, oo, pero scholar, wala talaga. Sayang kupit... hehehe

sakit talaga ng katawan ko, sige, next time ulit... jeje

When enough's enough

2007-03-26T17:50:00.001+08:00

I've officially terminated a friendship last Saturday, and I'm really satisfied with it. I may sound harsh, but that's just the way I feel.

As most people say, love can either make a relationship tighter, or it can just destroy it. In my case, it just destroyed it. It was his fault (yes, you've read that right, it's a he, a homosexual) falling in love with me even though he knows that I can't and won't reciprocate it. Nasasayangan ako sa pinagsamahan namin, so i didn't bother moving out of it, but now, it's totally a different story that just ending it would be the best choice.

Ang dami ng nadadamay na people dahil lang sa infatuation niya sa akin. Every girl na ma-link lang sa akin, aawayin niya. He's acting so strange that I just had enough. He wasn't even like that before. He asked for it, so i've giving it to him...

Saka after ending it, he asked for a forgiveness several hours later, kesyo nakainom nga daw siya and eveything. I didn't want to reconcile na, but just because nasasayangan ako sa friendship that time, i did accept him back. Then a few hours later, nalaman ko na lang na he was telling everyone na ako pa ang naghahabol para patawarin niya... The Hell! That brought me to my boiling point that whatever he says, this friendship has already ended. Buti na nga lang at napabasa ko sa ilang friends namin ang mga text nya that he can't take it if i won't forgive him.

Now, todo iwas ako. I should have been in a seminar kanina, but i didn't bother going dahil andun nga siya. Then me Physical Exam kami tomorrow, pero nagparesched na ko, and then nagpalipat na din ako ng Clinical group ko because i don't really want to be in his company anymore. Pati text nya, super hindi ko pinapansin. He made me do this, i have no choice.

I've been told by our friends na nasasayangan sila sa friendship namin, but why would i bother bringing it back when it's already ruin? Can i forgive him? Probably, but not now. Can i forget? That's a sure NO! After what's been done and said... I'm happier this way, nabunutan nga ako ng tinik sa lalamunan e. From this day forward, this is the only memory i'll ever have of that guy, everything's erased and hopefully, forgotten.

Lies, Deceits, and Tongue Piercings

2007-03-25T20:48:00.001+08:00

For some wierd and unknown reasons, napagplanuhan naming pumunta sa Baguio kahapon. Super biglaan talaga na last Friday evening lang namin napag-usapan. Ang malala pa nyan, wala ni isa sa amin ang nagpaalam ng matino sa parents namin, and that includes yung mga clinical instructors namin...

Ako, si JM, at si PJ, thesis ang excuse... Actually, di pa kami nakakapagstart magsurvey, so yun talaga palusot namin... hehe Si Mam Nate and Mam Kitz, completion ng requirements in order for them na makagjob-hunt daw sa monday. Yeah, lilipat na sila so probably, this would be the last time we'll be out of town with them. Then si Xy, malay ko dun kung ano excuse, la naman ata pakiaalam parents nya dahil liberated naman sila... hehe Lastly, si Laksh lang ata ang nagsabi ng totoo except that hindi niya sinabi na kasama niya BF niya so, there we all lied.... hehe

Then we also deceived our friends telling that we were just at home doing nothing when in fact, magkakasama kami... In short, that trip was a secret that only us knows and shoulf not be leaked kung hindi e malalagot kami... Pero super saya, diba nga, lahat ng bawal e masaya... hahaha

Pero di kami masyado nakapagikot dahil sa lack of time, we left at 10 so we arrived there ng mga 1, then kelangan na namin umuwi ng 5 dahil last day of school so madami pasakay. Nagchurch hopping lang kami since malapit na holy week.. hehe From the cathedral to the Buddhist (Buddhist nga ata yun) Bell Church e pinuntahan namin. Pati grotto e inakyat din namin kaya super sakit ng feet ko until now...

We then ate at Yellow Cab which i missed so much. Every week, me 1 day na yun ang dinner ko way back when i'm still in Manila kaya sobrang ka-miss talaga.. hehe

Tapos sa Session, me nadaanan kami na sterile piercing parlor at nagkayayaan pumasok para magpa-tongue piercing... Si JM nga pasimuno, and to think, takot siya sa ear piercing. Pero, as usual, di natuloy. Pero hindi sa takot kaya kami nagback-out. It was because PhP 800 pala siya, so wala kami budget. Tapos pambili pa ng antibiotics para dun, kulang talaga cash namin kaya sa pagbalik na lang siguro... hehe

Super enjoy talaga kahapon, ala pinoproblema kahit hindi nagpaalam ng matino. Bakit ba pag bilglaan ang pagplaplano, laging natutuloy? hahaha Yung mga pics pala, anjan sa middle right ng blog if ever you want to see... hehehe

Later!

BTW, if ever you know us or you think you do, let's just keep this a secret and just zip our mouths... hehehe Thanks ;)

just when you thought there's no heaven

2007-03-22T20:45:00.000+08:00

wala na sana akong balak pumunta sa school kanina tutal bakasyon ko na din lang naman pero tinext ako ni Dr. Leproso, ang NCM102 adviser namin, at nagpapatulong magcompute ng grades namin dahil daw uupo daw sa sa defense ng mga people na di pa tapos magdefense, so yun, ligo agad at puntang school...

sakto, pag dating ko sa school, unang tao na nakita ko e si Mam Satan, my instructor from hell. Paano ba naman, super pinag-iinitan niya ang block namin dahil lang sa isang person then pati nga ibang block nadamay na rin, that's why they're fond of calling us the "star block". Yeah, most of the Dean's Listers are in our block, pero tama ba naman na paginitan kami at pahirapan... Yun, greet ko siya and as usual, di nya ko pinansin...

so derecho na ko nursing office, tapos binigay na nga ni Dr. Leproso yung icocompute ko. Iniwan nya na ko doon dahil nga he's running late na nga daw. While i was browsing through our grades, biglang gulat ako na 90 ang grade ko ke Mam Satan. Aba naman, habang super daming line of 6 at 7, ako, line of 9!!! wow! in fact, ako lang ang line of 9! Ang saya saya talaga! Imagine, me galit siya sa amin tapos line of 9 ang grade ko... Kabilib talaga and to think na 2 quizzes lang naipasa ko!!! hahaha

pero di pa final un, dahil hindi pa included yung departmental exams namin na ang Acad ang nagcocompute, pero ang saya talaga no! kala ko hell on earth na, yun pala me awa din pala siya...

sana nakabawi talaga ako dahil ang baba ng midterm grades ko, to think na DL pa man din ako... hahaha pero nakita ko na RLE grades ko, 93, and yeah, yun na yung highest sa block namin... hehehe

pero kaawa din yung mga line of 6 and 7 sa kanya. ginawa na nga lahat ni Doc Leproso ang lahat ng makakaya nya, pero sobrang hinila ni Mam Satan ang accumulated grades nila for NCM... yun nga lang, of all the blocks sa amin, block namin ang me pinakamababang possibility na may bumagsak. In fact, mga 2 lang daw kung sakali, and then me possibility pa nga na pumasa kaming lahat... Galing talaga namin diba??? hahaha

oh well, let's just see na lang what happens pag irerelease na yung grades. sana na, walang mortality sa block namin at sana maretain ko ang pagiging DL ko (although ala naman talaga siyang benefit besides the recognition... hahaha)

later! ;)

NICE!!!!

2007-03-21T19:14:00.000+08:00

i should be doing two NCPs (Nursing Care Plan for those of you non-nursing studs) today for my duty tonight and yet look at what i'm doing... haha

sobrang nakakapiga ng utak gumawa ng NCP para sa NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit), unlike pag adults na may reading pocket guide, dito, gasgas talaga utak mo... wala ka pang makitang subjective data dahil iyak lang naman alam ng mga ungas na bata (gago ko talaga.. haha). waaah, 4 more hours to go...

tatlong oras na ko sa harap ng laptop ko, ala talaga pumasok, ikot lang talaga ako ng ikot sa web. asar talaga. sana bumagyo, ayaw ko na talaga magduty... tapos me exam pa pala kami mamaya... patay na talaga ako nito...

can someone please kill me now???? please!!!! hehehe

Loser's Month part 2

2007-02-14T18:57:00.000+08:00

Everyone's paired up, in red, holding hands... and it sucks!

From the malls, to the fastfood joints even in jeeps, you could see couples so freaking sweet it's irritable. Can they just not show their affection with one another in a public place? Can they just not use Valentine's Day as an excuse? hay...

Me, well, I do have a date. Not just with one lady, but with three. Tonight, I'll be in the company of Adele Pilliteri, Linda Anne Silvestri, and Alice Stein. Nice! I'll be up all night with the company of these 3 gorgeous women memorizing every little things they had in their books for my fucking exam in Maternal and Child Nursing tomorrow. That's just how freaking great my Valentine's Day would be.... Hahaha

That's not all. Earlier this day, I've almost been on a case presentation with the case being prepared just last night. Good thing my clinical instructor was good enough to give us another week to revise our work.

What a day! When everybody's out there celebrating their affection for one another, I'm stuck here on my room trying to compress everything that i read into this little head of mine! What a luck!

Night Shift

2007-02-12T18:14:00.000+08:00

Mareklamo na kung mareklamo ako pero super talagang sakit ng ulo ko tuwing gumigising ako sa hapon tuwing magduduty ako sa gabi. Yung feeling na ang bigat ng pakiramdam tapos dehydrated ka pa tsaka gutom pa, ang hirap talaga.

Tapos kanina ay kailangan ko pang gumising ng maaga dahil sa pesteng CXR at ECG exam na requirement sa school. Akala ko e gabi siya pero tumawag ang kaklase ko dahil dumaan pa siya sa school after ng duty para magbayad at saktong nakasalubong nya si dean, sabi niya morning daw kami, kaya ayun, pinilit ko talagang bumangon. Buti kung accurate yung results nung pesteng ECG, e puyat nga ako tapos ang taas pa ng BP ko nung kinuha yun, gago talaga yung operator nung machine.... hahaha

Ano pa ba, ayun, kagabi e natapos ko na rin ang lecheng 5 cord dressings na required ng PRC para sa board exams. Suerte nga ng group ko e, halos lahat kami complete na ang minor, major at cord dressing cases tapos yung mga kasabay namin kagabi e mga 4th years na naghahabol ng cases. At least alaga talaga kami ng school namin... naks!

Pero ang yayabang nung mga ungas na yun, porke second course na nila e tatamad-tamad sila. Pareho naman kami asa NICU, pero ni ayaw nila pumasok dun para mag-alaga ng mga babies dahil nga daw "for completion" lang sila. Buti sana kung walang toxic na patient doon, e may ina-ambu-bag kaya kami... buti naisipan namin na magbreak at iwan ang trabaho sa kanila, pero after just 1 hour, reklamo ba naman agad ang mga peste... anak ng mga tipaklong naman talaga...

Two more weeks at tapos na kami sa NICU. Sana nga e matapos na dahil super breakdown na ko pag hindi pa... hahaha

Lecheng Thesis

2007-02-08T18:49:00.002+08:00

I never liked making thesis, ever since nung highschool pa lang ako, kalokohan lang yung thesis na ginawa ko, homemade battery na nakita ko lang sa net, pero ito ang hanep, nung ibinigay ko yun sa kapatid ko, approved agad ng research prof nya at yun pa sana ang gusto nyang ipasok sa Intel something competition, buti na nga lang at di natuloy... Pero imagine, parehas lang kami ng research prof, di man lang napansin... oh well!

Ngayon e problema nanaman tong lecheng thesis na to... This month na ang preliminary defense namin, pero up to now e ala pa kami napagkasunduang topic ng mga ka-group ko... Ang dami na naming napaappprove sa adviser namin, pero lagi din naming pinapalitan even though she thinks na matino ang topic namin... kung bakit kami ganito, i really don't know... hehe

From prevention of neonatal sepsis to perception of student nurses regarding homosexuality to stress and ways of coping, dami na talaga... lagi na lang kami nagkakaproblema pagdating sa formulation of the problem, hirap kasi e...

Ngayon naman ay stuck kami on perception of student nurses towards male nursing students... weird no? a bahala na, cramming talaga ang mangyayari nito...

Basta, the bottom line is... Thesis making sucks bigtime! Nyahaha

Bakit Ganon?

2007-02-07T19:50:00.000+08:00

Matagal tagal ko na rin hinihintay na ipalabas ang "Heroes" sa bansa, at mga ilang linggo na ang nakalipas ng malaman ko na ito'y ipapalabas sa Star World. Cyempre, hinintay ko talaga siya pero last week e "Grey's Anatomy" pa rin ang pinapalabas sa time slot na slated para sa "Heroes", at nasa kalagitnaan pa lang ng second season nito kaya kala ko mali lang yung scheds na nakita ko...

Kanina ay naisipan kong dumaan sa site ng Star World, at gulat ako na hindi pala available sa Pilipinas ang show na ito. Ang galing... Lahat ng market ng Star World, Heroes ang palabas every Wednesday @ 9PM, dito lang ata Grey's Anatomy. Hindi naman sa ayaw ko ng Grey's, pero napanood ko na ang buong season 2 at matagal ko ng hinihintay ang Heroes kaya nakakadismaya talaga.

Then I've found out sa PEx na exclusively distributed ng Crime/Suspense ang Heroes dito... super bad trip, tinanggal ng cable provider namin ang channel na ito just a few months ago... Ang saya talaga... Then asa Crime/Suspense na din ang Survivor starting this Friday which was formerly being shown at Studio 23... bwusit talaga cable provider namin, kung kelan tumino ang Crime/Suspense saka naman ito nawala...

Sana meron na sa Quiapo Heroes!!!! waaaahhhhh...........

"mahal mo ba siya? mahal ka ba niya? paano yan.. e mahal din kita..kelangan ko bang magparaya para sumaya ka.. o kelangan kitang ipaglaban dahil mahal kita.."

how can a simple forwarded SMS be that touching, even though it came from someone who really don't know the status of my love life right now?

hay, don't you just hate people infected with the love virus? i really wish this month is over really soon... hahaha

Loser's Month part 1

2007-02-04T17:12:00.000+08:00

February. A lot of people called it the "Love Month". But how about for people like me who are single at this fateful month?

I never liked this month. I never liked Valentine's Day ever since i've got the brain to know about it. I never liked my teachers requiring us to make Valentine's Card to give to any of our classmates. It's plain stupidity.

I never liked wearing red, not because I don't look good on it, it's just, it's an unhappy color for me. I never liked buying roses for my teachers... not that it's required, it's just an unwritten law in my school to give every female instructor a rose, that's why...

And as i've grown up, i never really liked going out with someone on that fateful day. It's not because I'm afraid to ask someone out, I'm just not buying the whole charade that is called Valentines.

I've always been single on this day, may be that's why... Or may be I'm just apathetic enough to give it a try? Well, I did plan on going out once, but I did back up... I'm really I'm not into this thing, really...

To those who are in love, and those who really likes to celebrate Valentine's, have fun. It's your month! And to those who are single just like me, then there's may be some other measure to passed by this month without feeling like a loser on which I am feeling right now...

...to be continued.

buhay nursery

2007-02-03T18:59:00.000+08:00

sa lahat ng ward ng ospital, nursery talaga ang pinaka-ayaw ko, at sa lahat talaga ng oras, night shift pa ang binigay. anak ng ****!!! buti sana kung isang linggo lang na ganito, e isang buong buwan akong magbabantay ng mga sanggol na sobrang lalakas pa naman umiyak! saka ang lamig pa pala ng weather, ang galing!

ang saya talaga ng buhay na ito... leche! hahaha

new year, new life?

2007-01-01T18:39:00.000+08:00

hindi ko alam kung tama bang buhayin ang blog na ito after four months of absence pero why not, medyo maluwang na kasi schedule ko ngayon e...

actually, mahirap talagang mag-blog lalo na if your in your third year in college, it's the time when hectic na lahat, with the thesis, the hard subjects, you really don't have that much time to do other things, lalo na ako at nursing pa 'tong course ko, hay, pagod talaga ang katawan mo after your 8 hours of hospital duty. pero masaya naman siya, fulfilling... yeah, fulfilling siya pag nasa special area siya, pero kung ordinary ward ka lang at night shift ka pa, hay, mas masayang matulog ka na lang sa bahay.. nyahaha

new year ngayon, halos lahat ng tao, may resolution, pero ako, pass muna. actually, ilang years na rin akong alang resolution every new year dahil halos every year ay di ko rin naman ito naitutupad, so what's the use? i tried making agendas too, pero same thing happens, i always don't make it. so i've also stopped making one.

pero i really like to change, if not, correct a couple of things in my life, but i rather not put it in a list madidisappoint din lang ako when i try seeing if i did all those things by the year's end. i'll just try doing my best on all of the things i do this year... haha (yun din yun e)

a basta, too much had happened last year that i really need to make my life worthwhile this year. i guess this is my year to change, well i did thought of that a year ago and the year before that, but i really think that this is the year. whatever!

so what's the point of this point besides of reviving this dying blog? i dunno, i don't even think that i'm making any sense, basta one thing's for sure: i'll try my best to be a better man! beat that! nyahaha

ETA: Told me so, i didn't make sense at all! hehe neways, next time na lang, when the net's not fucked up and i have a longer period of time to write something.... jeje

later!

Trip

2006-10-27T18:42:00.000+08:00

i'm still juggling with the idea of changing the layout of this blog since it's so childish, and one even commented that the color combination isn't working that well... if time permits, may be i will... hehe

been to baguio yesterday and my feet are killing me... we've walked from SM to SLU thru Session Road and went back, then to Pink Sisters then to the Cathedral. Really, walking that far will surely makes your corns and calluses begging for mercy. But it was fun, wandering the streets of a city that you ain't that familiar with. Oh, i've forgot to add, we've also did walk up the whole 307 1/2 steps leading to the Lourdes Grotto, which as you may have guessed, is another feet killer... hehe

actually, the trip wasn't planned at all. we we're toying with the idea of going there, but it was just last wednesday that we've agreed on really going. i was with two CIs and my queer friend Raffy by the way. We tried on inviting others but they keep on insisting that they don't have that much dough left to go to Baguio.

i know it's wierd hanging out with your CIs but we've been closed from the very start. we're in almost the same age bracket anyways, so who cares. And they'll be flying soon so better use the remaining time of their stay here in the Philippines hanging out...

later! feet still hurts... hehe

i've passed

2006-10-18T17:59:00.000+08:00

i've passed. it's not surprising, but i've got the tendency bragging about it, so here it goes again, I'VE PASSED! nyahaha

too bad around 50 of my batchmates didn't make it. not that i can do something about it, but it's saddening. oh well, that's how life goes, sometimes you're up, and most of the times you're not!

losing 50 students means 2 blocks would be dissolved and new groups would be created for our hospital exposure next sem. sad! just when i'm almost comfortable with my group then this? :(

on other news, i got a bew phone... bought a new Nokia N70 last saturday. i was planning on buying a N71, but due to budget constraint, i've settled down for the cheaper N70... nyahaha, i've got a new phone.... that's something else to brag about!!! hehehe

what else, yeah, i've changed the studs on my ears now that the piercings are dry... it's been just a week, but i'm a fast healer, so maybe that's the reason it dried up easily... hehe

going to Mall of Asia tomorrow for the first time... well, it's the first time my scheds permit me too that's why... hehehe oh, and am going to Baguio too on friday if my mum permits.. hehe though i don't have that much dough anymore...

neways, that's it for now... later ;)

back to blogging!!!

2006-10-09T18:23:00.000+08:00

nyahaha, after almost two months of absence, i still have the guts to come back and blog again, i just can't get it out of my system... lol

so, let me sum up what had happen for almost 2 months in my plain, boring life...

okay, the nursing day thingy that i was talking about in my last post ended quite well, actually, it was fantastic... well, others say it was quite a bore but for a student coordinator like me, hell, all my work has paid up pretty well. Most of the main prizes went to my batch, without even resulting in cheating. hehehe The documentation though ain't that done yet so i still need to finish that before the end of this semester... nyahaha
i've patched things up with the "CI from hell", actually, most of my groupmates did. well, that's all for the sake of our grades, of course! ;)
i'm a dean's lister without even knowing it... actually, my name wasn't in the list that was posted in the school grounds a few weeks before the ceremony, so i really didn't have any idea that i've made the list until a fews days after when a few of my fellow dean's lister told me so... actually, there were 3 in my batch whose names are omitted in the posted list, so it's all fine with me... hey, at least i made the list...
exams are almost done. i still have 3 more before the end of the week but the all of them are minor subjects, so to say. I've taken the dreaded departmental exam last friday, which, to my surprise was a bit easier than the one given last midterm. oh well, may be that's just me.
the day after the exam was my freaking birthday. there wasn't much celebrations though just because i want it to be like that. i'm not into fancy things anyway... lol
oh, and globe telecoms called too last saturday telling me that my phone is fixed and i can claim it anytime. i was about to buy a new one that day too. maybe i'll be trading in that old phone into a new one so that means lesser cash out for me... hehehe
out of sheer stupidness, i had both my ears pierced last sunday. i don't know why i did it, but i was planning on it for a few years now, it's just that i only had the courage to make it done last sunday... well, it didn't hurt as i thought it would have been, and i'm really happy i did it.

well, that's it for now... later ;)

juggling is such a hard act

2006-08-21T19:46:00.000+08:00

buti na lang at wala akong duty ngayon salamat na lang sa weather at kung hindi e halos 1 month na rin plang walang bagong entry itong blog na ito... hehe ang hirap naman kasi ng duty ko, super grave yard shift, from 11-7 ba naman at laging ICU pa, di windang talaga ako pag-uwi at tulog buong umaga. kung puwede na nga lang at di na ako maligo bago matulog, e gagawin ko talaga, nakakatakot na nga lang at baka mahawa ako sa mga sakit na dinala ko galing hospital so no choice but to shower pa at patuyuhin ang buhok.

pero ang saya din magduty sa ICU, kahit walang pahinga kahit man lang pangmerienda. buti na nga lang yung mga kasama ko at nakakapunta pang 7-11 to buy foods, ako, ala talaga, pabili na lang at halos hindi ko pa makain yung pinabili ko. Ang mabuti na nga lang e hindi pa ako napapatayan ng pasyente.

Pero grabe pala pag me toxic na client, super gulo sa loob ng ICU, halos hindi mo na alam kung ano ang gagawin mo, panonoorin yung nag-50/50 na patient o asikasuhin pa yung patient mo na din naman ganun kagrabe ang case. Noon ngang pinapanood ko minsan yung kagroup ko, halos hindi nya na makayanan yung ginagawa nya dahil alam nya ng wala na talagang pagasa mabuhay yung patient na dahil yung mga doctor na mismo, ayaw na rin irevive yun.

Pero nasubukan ko na ring magpostmortem care, at halos hindi ko din kayanin nung una. 1st time kong makakita ng patay nun at kelangan ko pang linisan, as in, kung kaya ko lang tanggihan, talagang tatangihan ko yun, pero no choice, ako talaga naglinis ng bangkay. almost 1 week ko nga rin before nakalimutan yung mukha nun patay e, ayaw nya ba naman ako patulugin.

1 week na lang talaga at tapos na tong grave yard shift ko... hay...

sa ibang dako naman, nauto nanaman ako ng mga CI ko na maging over-all in charge sa nursing day namin na gaganapin sa Sept 1. Hirap kaya mag-organize ng event, sa katunayan nga, yung mr. and ms. nursing pa lang nauumpisahan namin e at un audition for the singing contest pa lang... mga 5 more events pa ang la pang audition, sakit na naman ng ulo to....

tapos examination week na naman after that... hay, kaya naman pala nagkakapimple outbreak nanaman ako e... gotta go to the derma soon, super kelangan ko na ng facial.

ano pa ba, a oo nga pala, sira pa rin yung stupid na phone ko. binalik na siya ng globe yet me sira pa rin so binalik ko uli. pag di pa naayos yun, nagpaparinig na ako sa mum ko na bilhan ako new phone dahil halos naghihingalo na rin tong ginagamit ko ngayon... lapit na rin naman kasi birthday ko e.. hehe i think i'm eyeing nokia 6680 o kaya samsung d600i, depende na lang sa budget na ibibigay nya.. .hehe

neways, that's it for now. later! ;)

the CI from hell

2006-08-01T17:34:00.000+08:00

super init ng ulo ng mga kagroup ko kanina sa duty namin. supposedly, last day na namin ng community duty today, and dahil wala kaming CI for almost two weeks now dahil nga nanganak a week ago, e we're supposed to go home early, e bigla ba naman na me pinadalang bagong CI to replace our old one. we'll there's nothing worng at first, til she opened her mouth. wow, super taray nya, as in lahat pinapansin. lahat pa naman ng kagroup ko came to the site late thinking that no one would handle us and tatambay nanaman kami doon doing nothing.

to the max galit nila lalo na nung sinabing they'll get a make-up duty for coming late. good thing nga lang at a minute early ako sa kanya, or else pati ako me MUD. then ayun, lalong lumala when she planned on giving us an evaluation exam when in fact, la naman kami diniscuss with our former CI, and she really didn't have plans on giving us one kasi dahil she feels that we are responsible enough and worthy to not take an exam na. kaya mamaya, super review nanaman ako instead of just sleeping early and taking a rest from the tiresome duty.

oh yeah, she's also planning on computing our grades to think na two days nya lang kami ihahandle, e ano icocompute nya dun. our former CI should actually compute our grades, while she'll just substitute for her. She has no right to compute it, especially when she knows nothing of what we've really done. And she'd blatantly told us that she rarely gives a grade above 81 where in fact our presumed grades with our former CI is actually not lower than 90.

we've came to the school to complain a grievance against her, bad thing is, our dean and clinical instructor are on a meeting so we need to see her again tomorrow even though we don't want to. we'll, we certainly don't have a choice, it's either her or a MUD and a special exam...

but actually, i don't have that much problems with here, i just can't stand the fact that she'll be the one who'll be computing for our grades. i never had a grade below 85 ever since i've started nursing, and have no plans of actually getting one. I'm trying all my best and then the most that i can get is a lame 81... uhm...

let's just see how'll this battle end tomorrow. later!

for the sake of posting

2006-07-28T20:07:00.001+08:00

been busy reviewing for my departmental exams next week... post more later... neways, watch the vid below, it's so freaking true.. hehe

pondering...

2006-07-14T18:32:00.000+08:00

"...kapag nurse ka, you will always be just a nurse forever, you cant prescribed, you will always look at patient's chart for doctors orders, you will always be under somebody throughout your career, that's why konti ang nurses sa us since maraming americans ayaw magnursing. nursing maybe finacially fulfilling for some filipinos pero it can never satisfy the feeling na isa kang doctor."

it just made me think if i should really pursue medicine... hmm...

and yet another boring day

2006-07-13T19:12:00.000+08:00

Arroyo: Classes resume in all levels in Metro, Regions 3, 4
Still suspended in Regions 1, 2, and CAR

PRESIDENT Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has announced the resumption of classes at all levels in Metro Manila, and in Regions 3 and 4 on Friday but said those in Regions 1 and 2 and at the Cordillera Administrative Region would remain suspended.

The President made the announcement Thursday during her visit at the National Disaster Coordinating Council (NDCC) in Camp Aguinaldo.

Classes in all levels were suspended in these areas following heavy rains caused by Tropical Storm "Florita."
"Florita," which became a typhoon as it headed towards Taiwan, left at least seven people dead and three missing.

i'm so bored of being at home and yet classes are suspended again even if the rain is over... grr

got this from inq7.net. Here's the link.

the downpour, the duty and the week that was

2006-07-13T17:11:00.000+08:00

okay, so i've been gone for a couple of sdays, so what? hehe i've always been sleepy everytime i arrive home after my duty that's why i can't have that much time to create a new entry, plus i do have classes on saturdays now which also adds to the fact that i hardly open my pc anymore. thank good i've got a break today because of the bad weather, and good thing is we still have electricity as compared to my sister's dorm which doesn't have it since yesterday.

so what's new? uhm, nothing much. just got my second hepa vaccine last week which just leaves me with one more for next month. i'm beginning to overcome my fears of vaccination because of it too, now i can go alone for it as compared to last year when i still can't look at the face of the one giving me the vaccine. and typically, i really do make a scene whenever i go to a hospital for one. lol

globe hasn't called me yet since i've surrender my phone for repair. they say that they can still work on it, so i'm really hoping the could. it's such a great phone that i really wanted it fixed. but if ever it still have some problems when returned, then i'll just be selling it to those trade-in phone centers and just buy me a new phone... hehe

hmm, community duty ain't that bad afterall. all we do is just eat, eat and eat... we'll maybe not all the times, but really, there ain't nothing much to do in there. last wednesday was the first and last clinic day for this month and it will also serve as our first and last exposure to such event until our duty ends so that would leave us to just spending our eight hours almost doing nothing inside the health center... hehe just can't wait for my hospital duty for next month. heard that it would be an 11-7 midnight shift at the regional hospital, just not that sure on what ward (really hoping that it would be the surgical ward, since it's the only ward that i've heard of that has good nurses in it. lol)

hmm, haven't seen superman yet, though i've planned on seeing it for several days now but it gets on getting postponed.. maybe i'll just wait for the dvd. maybe not, i'll try to see it this saturday. maybe hehe

speaking of dvds, i've rented 'Rent' last monday and haven't returned it til now. i think i have a PhP30.00 penalty though i haven't seen the movie yet. i've tried watching it this morning but i've fallen asleep in the middle of the film... was it that boring? maybe it is.

i've bought a new jacket yesterday so that i have something to wear today, but too bad classes were cancelled which only means that i've wasted quite a few bucks... hope classes would resume tomorrow with the weather still the same so that i could use that freaking jacket... hehe

that's it for now, i think. my mind's not in the mood of thinking right now... i'm kind of sleepy right now. maybe it's just because of the weather. but i really need to recharge, after that cold that i had and the tiresome duty, yeah, i really need some rest. ciao for now!

later! ;)

flu season and dead phones

2006-07-01T18:22:00.000+08:00

first my phone died on me and now a flu... what have i've done to deserve all these???

i just hate having a flu. the dripping, the runny nose, the sneezing... it's really annoying. i'm starting my duty this monday and i hope this flu would be g one by then, but i highly doubt it since it takes me weeks to cure a simple flu...

actually, it has been an epidemic in the school lately since we've taken our orientation at the regional hospital a week ago. a few people caught flu by then. then this monday was another orientation, but now at the provincial hospital, and yes, another group of people caught flu too. i didn't caught it at those ocassion, but because all of our rooms at school are air-conditioned, it was easy to catch it. i thought i wouldn't get it until symptoms manifested yesterday, and now, i'm so freaking sick.. good thing is i don't have a fever yet... damn, i hope i won't get one, i really don't want my duty, just to to make it up...

oh, and my phone, it's officially dead. i've proclaimed it this morning, since it's touchscreen ain't working anymore... i can't call or text anymore so i'v retired it already... it's the phone that have the shortest lifespan that i've got and it sucks especially when some people say that motorola is a good brand. oh yeah, and for the price that i've bought it, i've really thought that it would last for about a year and half.

i'm now stuck with my mum's old phone. it's a nokia 7610 which hangs a bit, but it'll do than none at all. i still have to save for a new one, if i can save... hehe

later!

stupid phones and class elections

2006-06-29T20:53:00.002+08:00

i want a new phone... my phone is acting crazy since yesterday and i'm having a hard time using it now... it's touchscreen ain't acting like one, heck, i can't even use it at some point. it still has it's warranty at globe but i don't wanna go through all that red tape in order for my phone just to be fixed. and yeah, it would also be pulled out for repair so i really need a new one... great, now i need money to buy a new phone... what the hell can i buy with 5000 bucks??? grrr. that's the only disposable i have out of my bank account... stupid cell phone... (reminder to self: never ever buy another phone with touchscreen... they're not worth the price).

on other news, our block conducted it's class election yesterday since it would be the last day for our ward class which just means that it was the last day that we'll see each other in a classroom setting for quite some time... as i've expected it, i was voted block prez as there was no one else who wants that position. in fact, there wasn't even an election for that position, they've just agreed to place me to that post since i'm the one handling the duty since day 1. oh well, like i can do anything else about that.

the rest of the election was pretty much the same except for the muse since the ones conducting the election were of the third sex... they've played with it alot that 8 were nominated for the post... it took us around 30 mins to just vote for that position and it just ended with a tie. since we're a nursing block and there ain't that men in the class, we've just let the ladies decide on who should be our muse... after another 5 mins that the tie was broken.

whatelse? oh yeah, exams are on next week and there ain't that much lectures yet. that's a good thing since duties will start next week and i won't have that much time to review... damn, i've remembered my community duty once again... grrr... i hate being given a community duty, i want to be in the hospital.... grrr.

neways, i really want a new phone.. maybe a second hand model would do, as long as it is working properly, has a cam, and preferrably a radio/mp3 player with expandable memory, and i 'll be fine with that.. lol whom am i kidding, where can i find a phone like that on a tight budget like that of mind.... hehe

later! :P

alternate sexual expression and a bunch of other things

2006-06-27T20:12:00.000+08:00

failed my 2nd quiz in rle yesterday, but not as drastic as i thought it would be... i've just failed by a single point, which is fine since most of the class failed anyways and i still have a passing average for the quizzes.. hehe

didn't do much today, well, there ain't much to be done anyways. was supposed to perform a return demo for my RLE class but we've run out of time and maybe, i'll be doing that tomorrow.

what else? oh yeah, i was doing an essay regarding 'alternate sexual expression' earlier but i just can't decide on what part would give me a higher grade... i know that i can defend both sides but i'm just bothered if my professor will agree on my stand. well, i really don't know what's my professor's sexual orientation is, so that's why... hehe

but if i were to choose, well, i'm fine having people of the third sex. i know some who are successful, but they should always know their limits. i mean most of them are so expressive that they are getting harrassed without even noticing it because they love the attention that they are getting... if they want respect, then they should learn on knowing it... wait, does that make any sense at all? i don't think so. hehe

next week's duty week and i'm still frustrated that my first duty would still be in a community while most of my batchmates are in the hospital... i just can't get it off my system.

i need to buy a new ink, i'm almost out.

later!

Just out of frustration

i.ph was one of the best blog hosting site i've been to for quite some time, but i can't place any script in it that i've finally decided to vacate it.. hehe

but i've been moving from one place to another since last year, which sucks since i keep on designing one blog template to another.. but i do love making it, especially when i do have time...

hmmm, what's new besides this blog??? oh, yeah, our duty scheds were given this morning, and i've been assigned to a community health center once again... i've been readying myself for a hospital duty for the longest time and then i've been given just that, arghhh... but still, at least i've got a month more to study further those hospital thingies... hehe

this sucks as a first post. nothing exciting bout it... lol

oh well.. later!
