Definitiely, a picture is worth a thousand words.

Hah!


[23 August 2006] Mabait
Theo and I had a serious conversation on our way home.

Theo: Ang hirap din pala maging mabait.
Me: Oo, noh.
Theo: Minsan ginagamit ka lang ng mga tao.
Me: Oo nga.
Theo: Tapos maghahanap yung mabait ng mapagtitrip-an na mas mababa sa kanya.
Me: Uy, hindi naman. Edi hindi na mabait yun.
Theo: Joke lang.
Me: Pero alam mo kung ano yung mas nakakainis? Yung ginago ka na't lahat, kaya mo pa rin silang patawarin kasi masyado kang mabait. Wala ka namang magawa.
Theo: Oo nga.
Me: Mahirap din talaga.


[] Giving up
Ayoko na.


[19 August 2006] There is a time for girly posts... hehehe.
I guess my mom noticed that lately I've been in this manic-depressive state, so when we brought my cousin to MOA this evening, she also took me shopping, I suppose, to cheer me up a bit. Hehehe.

Hmm... I should be depressed more often. It's been a while, though, since the last time I went to the mall and got my mom to buy me clothes. There was this skirt I saw in Maldita, but it was too expensive (PhP 2K for a skirt!? Wuh.), so I really didn't have the heart to ask for that. But Mossimo was on sale, and I saw this white flowing bottom (kung may top, edi may bottom, diba? LOL. I just don't know what to call it.) that was expensive as well, but I was able to purchase it since it was marked down to 50%. New clothes, wheeee! And I even have stuff that I still haven't worn yet. Oh well, isa-isa ko din silang masusuot. Haha.


[] SS
Wala na akong dugo.
Wala na akong tulog.

Wala na akong dignidad.
Wala na akong pera.
Wala na akong buhok.

At malapit na malapit na...

Wala na akong panahon.

Wala na akong brain cells.
Wala na akong bait.

DAHIL SS NA!!!!!

What's SS, you ask? SS = Special Studies. a.k.a. THESIS. Last Wednesday, we finally got our groupings and assigned advisers for SS. I got teamed up with Jazzy, Kuya Ran and Ate Rena. We got Dr. Bertuso for our adviser, which means we're going to be under the Parasitology department!!! Alright! I wanted to have either Microbiology or Parasitology for our SS topic, so I got really excited when I found out.

So, our group already met twice, discussing about areas of interest, formulating titles and objectives, etc. Hopefully, when we finally meet with our adviser, some of our topics would get approved.

Although I'm really enthusiastic about this, I'm also really nervous at the same time. I feel that I'm going to screw up somewhere along the way, like I always do. And I'm also bad at reporting, so as early as now (even if we haven't officially started yet), I'm getting worried about the defense already. Waaaaah. Lord, help us.

Mommy: Eh kamusta ka naman, ok ka naman?
Me: Ok lang...

At least, I pretend to be.

Give me a week, and I'll finally be back to my true happy state. And it's all going to be over.

STUPID.


[08 August 2006] Study break first...
Information overload. Waaah.

*~*~*

Yesterday afternoon during Clin Chem lab was the first time I got REALLY scared after a venipuncture. I'm not afraid of needles, which is why I don't mind volunteering to be a guinea pig for a moment. But after today, I would definitely think twice before offering my veins to anyone. My life is at risk.

Constantly, we are reminded of the proper procedure for venipuncture. We should do each step with caution. And we should ALWAYS keep in mind that some mistakes can lead to complications, even DEATH. Friggin' scary. I never really thought that that may happen until this afternoon's lab session, when my classmate unconsciously got the syringe out of my vein and skin already (and I told her), then she put it back in!

Seeing blood flowing out of my skin plus the bevel slowly becoming visible was scary enough. But the thought of getting air embolism... I felt that in a few seconds, I should be expecting for my life to flash before my eyes. The feeling is not exaggerated, believe me.

I'm not mad at my classmate, though. She must've gotten nervous. Surprisingly and fortunately, I didn't get a hematoma. She promised me that I can do a venipuncture on her next week. Not her fault. No hard feelings. No revenge. Hehehehe. Hopefully, I'd be able to increase my (almost always painless ) venipuncture success rate to 72% next Monday.

*~*~*

Majujai!!! Happy Birthday MO!!!!

I cannot believe I actually found out what SPADNS means. It's sodium-2-(parasulfophenylazo)-1,8-dihydroxy-3,6-naphthalene disulfonate. Tama, SPADNS na nga lang.

*~*~*

Blogging has kept me awake. Hehehe.

6 more hours before the EH exam!!! Got to get back to studying!


[] News, Horoscope & Magic 8-Ball
Good News #1: I haven't fallen asleep yet (at least not for more than 5 minutes) and have been able to find ways to keep myself awake.

Bade News #1: Those ways included blogging, looking for old pictures in old cabinets (and discovered that I was a dark, chubby, ugly kid. ugh.), drinking coffee/Milo, blogging, all of them deviated myself from studying. Great.

*~*~*

I added a Magic 8-Ball to my Google homepage. I asked if I was going to fail my EH exam. It said: "Reply hazy, try again." Definitely better than a "Yes."

*~*~*

Good News #2: I finally finished reading the transcriptions for the lecture part. I just need to read for the laboratory part.

Bad News #2: I can no longer remember anything from what I've read. And... combined lab reports = 17 pages. Good luck.

*~*~*

I asked, "If I sleep now, will I be able to wake up at 5 am?"
Magic 8-Ball answered, "My reply is no."

I am definitely not sleeping.

*~*~*


Daily Horoscope for Gemini:

Your feelings may be playing a more important role in your life now than they normally do, but unfortunately they may be difficult to express. Most often you tend to emphasize mind over heart, yet today your emotions are getting stirred up from the subconscious, like the stuff that gets scraped up from the bottom of a pot of soup. Don't resist this movement. You can learn from your feelings, even if they make you uncomfortable. (Monday, August 7, 2006 )


Damn it. How accurate can you get? Stupid horoscope. Will have to check again tomorrow, though.

*~*~*

Still have 3 hours to go! Better start going through the lab reports.

*~*~*

Last question, hehehe.

Me: "Will I pass?"
Magic 8-Ball: "As I see it, yes."

Oh yeah!!!


[07 August 2006] Just before I study...
I'm going to drive myself insane if I don't stop thinking.

And the more I think, the more I lose my self-respect.







Save me.


[05 August 2006] Pacquiao as Vice Mayor of Manila?!?

Pacquiao ponders politics as future option
by Nick Giongco
Manila Bulletin, August 5, 2006, H-1

Manny Pacquio is still under decided whether to run as vice-mayor of Manila next year, but there were signs that he is weighing his options one of them a political career after boxing.

On a radio interview, Pacquiao, who is being eyed to be the running mate of mayoralty candidate Arnold "Ali" Atienza, son of incumbent Manila mayor Lito Atienza, said his intentions of seeking public office was not influenced by anyone.

"Hindi ako kinumbinse. (I was not forced)," said Pacquiao. "Ako ang nagdesisyon sa sarili ko. (I decided on my own)."

...


OMG.

There's a big possibility that he will win, if he does run. Unfortunately, majority of Filipinos likes celebrities and would even vote for them even if these celebrities don't even know anything about politics. Why do you think Arnold Schwarzenegger won in California? Marami kasing Pilipino dun. Hehehe.

What is going to happen to Manila?!?


[04 August 2006] Thank God for friends...

6 Cycle Mind

Kanina pa kita pinagmamasdan
Mukha mo'y di maipinta
Malungkot ka na naman
Kanina pa kitang inaalok
Ng kwentuhang masaya
Parang sayo'y bale wala

Sandali nga
Teka lang
May nakalimutan ka
Di ba't pwede mo kong iyakan

Sige lang
Sandal ka lang
At wag mong pipigilan
Iiyak mo na ang lahat sa langit
Iiyak mo na ang lahat sa akin

Andito lang ako naghihintay
Lagi mong tatandaan
Di ka naman nag iisa
Andito lang ako
Makikinig sa'yo
Sa buong magdamag
Sa 'kin di ka bale wala

Sige lang
Sandal ka lang
At wag mong pipigilan
Iiyak mo na ang lahat sa langit
Iiyak mo na ang lahat sa akin

Sige lang

Kuya Jon, thank you... I needed that hug.
