its blogging time again!

i'm back! yes i am! and i dunno know how to begin telling my stories. well, i'm thinking to start it with 'once upon a time?' i guess? or better yet, 'long long time ago?' but....Oh God! forty-seven days have passed since i posted my shitty nonsense blog! and i know i've missed to share some of the spectacular moments of my 'summer experiences'. swear!

so, why, I, my, the,...crap! i'm going nuts! to think that i'm already spending more than an hour typing-deleting-typing again...yet, still it's bootless! now, i'm having eyestrain here. damn it! feels like i'm going to excuse myself for a while and doze off in my bed.

anyhow, i should try! its now or never...

as far as...hmmm...these words sounds familiar to me. anyway, as far as i could remember, it was april 18? when we had our internship I midterm exam. it went quite well...though we had a little argument 'bout the conversion of gr. to grams, but its okay. case dismiss!

tuesday, april 21, its my grandpapa's 88th birthday bash celebration! and i am physically absent! => duty! lolo, my apologies...

may 1, know what it is? its labor day. and its a holiday for all mercurians. uhm...i just spend the rest of the day in my room--watching movies.

may 2- well, obviously, we had our lecture. what else...i had bonding moments with my other fellas. we had lunch at jd's bakeshop. i admit. i misses them. a lot. i missed our lousy talks and endless banter.

may 4, another lecture again! nothing's new anyway. just lecture and bloody quizzes. grrh...

may 9, early in the morning, my celphone screams out loud that it almost gives me a whiplash! my cp just reminds me to bring my own sample of dosage form...a very necessary requirement i shouldn't miss. or else, INC! :(

may 13, one of the significant and unforgettable day in our life. its my father's death anniversary and fuck! we forgot to visit his graveyard. sorry pop. don't think that your forgotten. maybe we're just pretty much preoccupied that day. hope you consider it.

may 15, its a hahahahappy day! :))) my friends and i watch a little but funny class presentation.

our fellow regular classmates have their culminating activity in their huma. the theme is like, 'reviving the 70s, 80s, 90s, and the present musical era' hahahah...is that right bry?? whoOw! is all i can say. you guys are absolutely terrific and entertaining! heheh..we almost forgot that we have our final exam in theo. damn! we're too too late. i thought we can't catch up. wheew! shithead!!

in the afternoon, we went to antoniette's humble abode. they had a little salu-salo prepared for their very important guests--that's us! heheh. she hates to hear this though, but its her victory party! hahah! she successfully played her role as pink panther after suffering from a minor attack( kay jenny! whahahah). newey, its for your own good girl. uhm...love your pink tail. lols.

may 16, ehem...its a tough day to all of us. we waited for nothing. hell! where's maam sima? she said, she'll be in school at 8am. but...haiz...forget the fuss! maybe she had important things to settle. so we waited...and waited...and waited, clutching our blue envelope like we're desperate odd looking applicants of pbb. hahah. its good that alumni bldg. provides a better shelter to its refugees..hahah.

the following days went quite well. still, i have to follow-up my other requirements in the drugstore. also, my friends and i watch T2. well, i have a not so horrible experience. the movie is great! its just the sound effects that frightens me off...and the coffin. shit! i hate it.

now, i can say, summer class is over. fun and excitement just begins to spring. hope you enjoy your vacation guys.

ps: at last! i already made may first entry this month of may. yihee!!

justapasttime...

well, I can't think of something to write on. so i opened a book and here's what i found. "tricks that let you...." its a kind of game actually. and i want you to try this. its fun! my skull got almost crack.

Can you solve this?

1) Take 1 from 19 and you get 20.
2) Make half of 9 equal 4.
3) One way to write 24 is 8+8+8. Now, write 24 with three 2's.
4) Write 15 with four 4's.
5) Make half of 11 equal 6.
6) Write 40 with three 4's.

*take your time buddy...

HAVE A PEACEFUL HOLYWEEK...

undescribable feelings...

it was in the afternoon of April 1 when i finally received the good news. "maka duty na gid man ang mga mercurians" hooray!! that was the happiest afternoon of my life. at last, i can wear those white uniforms again with matching tiara...heheh...I'm feeling kagalang-galang na. say nyo??

on that afternoon also, i have received sets of phone calls from my closest fwends. red. as what others used to call him. and as what he calls himself too. but i'm not used to it. heheh! LACSON gid ya for life...was the first to inform me that our application was already approved...big THUMBS up to you =))

pebbles also called. syempre kamustahan portion. and we've spend nearly an hour conversing with each other. well...chikadora man daan si iyay...

then, the loudy antoniette called with matching reklamo...

tonet: gina pa ko da ga tawag sa inyo busy haw??

tyay: bal-an mo nag storyahanay pa kami ni pebbles.

tonet: lovely... maka duty na kami.

tyay: kami man.

tonet: I'm so so happy...(laughing out loUd...)

**ang ending...pag ka aga...heheh! wala pa sya ka duty...whahahah! kay gin pa una daw sila lacsOn kag pebbles...sayang porma ni tOnet! naulaan pa daw bloUse nya sang iya man nga tubig...haiz...what can i say? clumsiness is next to.......

the last to call was mb. di pa daw sila maka duty...hay bry. awat gid ya nOh?

next morning..April 2 na! my very first day for the community pharmacy internship. the location. hell! tubang sang world trade center...jowk! =>SUPER market. the not so polluted and putrid smelling (eeewww!!!) locale in the city. not to mention the other markets. but pals! it is where goods at its lowest price are sold. =) mu ni ang tindahan sang mga barat! ay! wais gali...heheh...

okay. so this very day was my very first.....

-to wear my white uniform & white shozzz

-to enter the botica!

-to meet the other employees.

-to tour all over the botica.

-to start acting as someone who's knowledgeable on drugs. Rxpert ba.!

-to apply all i have learned..(both pharcal & dosage) medyo lipat nko gni.

this day, i thought would be my toughest trying day. lots of things are bombarding my mind. plus the "what ifs?" and "basi..." which quite disturbs me. but my premonition prove me totally and entirely wrong. the staffs were very accomodating and very supportive. they even welcomed us with a full blast of smile in their faces. nakz! right then i was totally relieve. and thankful that i was transferred in this branch. 'coz you know the...ehem! thanks so much LORD!

okay. so we have this 'tell me your name' scenario. just a short portion inorder to know whom to call and ask for BULIIIIIG...just in case.

after that. we were given oUr very first assignment. know what it is??

*panarapo sang shelves sa sulod sang prescription counter kag pang arrange sang bulong. hmm...kung sa balay bala, dusting furnitures! heheh.

then, we were ask to repacked the empty gelatin capsules and label it (according to its number), make paper boxes. also, we assist in dispensing the drugs (mga P.A & others lang gleng ang ga hatag sa customer). ga prepare lang kami yah. moreover, we were taught on how to fill up the form when releasing controlled drugs. furthermore, it is now a protocol to familiarize and know by heart the different drugs inside & outside the Rx counter, which is the main course of our internship. Oh bulong! please fill up my senses. familiar? kanta ni sya actually.

the whole day was damn! so awesome. no regrets. and i want to learn more and more and experience more.

still have lots to tell but...next time naman...sleep nako. (yawn)

**Oh! this blogginess thing, I really missed...so much =))

worry no more!

this p.m maude told me that our grades in biochem was already encoded. at first, i don't know how i would respond. so i just nod and said, ah ok. cge e check ko lng karon. pero syempre, kudog man atay ko eh! but i already knew then that we all passed the subject, because i personally had the chance to talk to our adviser (that was the time when i got our clearance) and inquire for our status. eventhough our teacher said that nobody failed in biochem, i still have that feeling of doubts because i am not really sure if i was able to pass our exams (especially MIDTERM!!), because the results were not release to us weeks after the exam. thus, to lessen my anxiety, just this evening, as i arrived home, i immediately turned on the computer, and without further ado, redirects to the website of san ag. and YES! it is confirmed. I PASSED BIOCHEM!!! yiheee!!!

=)))

karugtong ng kahapon...

the firing squad team...heheh!

tsugi time...

Ooops! wala may ma misok ha!

*two thumbs up to Almond =)

More videos to post still! heheh!

Its nearly a year from now since we had our filming

about the life story of our National Hero, Dr. Jose Rizal.

Though this is kinda a 'tinik in our lalamunan' bcoz as we go along with the project, we encountered many 'balakid'. Nevertheless, we still made it.

Anyway, the videos you're about to see were just the 'blooper' thang!
Happy viewing =))

Still have more to post...watch out!

Have you been to church today?

Today is already the third Sunday of lent. Two more sundays to go and we're about to enter the holy week season, wherein, we commemorates Christ's paschal mystery.

Today's Gospel is found in the book of John 2:13-25 and it talks about the
Cleansing of the Temple.

"13(A) The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus(B) went up to Jerusalem. 14(C) In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there. 15And making a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen. And he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables. 16And he told those who sold the pigeons, "Take these things away; do not make(D) my Father’s house a house of trade." 17His disciples remembered that it was written,(E) "Zeal for your house will consume me."
18So the Jews said to him,(F) "What sign do you show us for doing these things?" 19Jesus answered them, (G) "Destroy this temple, and in three days(H) I will raise it up." 20The Jews then said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?" 21But he was speaking about(I) the temple of his body. 22When therefore he was raised from the dead,(J) his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed(K) the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.
Jesus Knows What Is in Man 23Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many believed in his name(L) when they saw the signs that he was doing. 24But Jesus(M) on his part did not entrust himself to them, because(N) he knew all people 25and needed no one to bear witness about man, for(O) he himself knew what was in man."

Bad News: I was rejected! ; Good News: I was accepted! =)

Last night, bam2x called me up and ask me if we (antoniette & me) are willing to help her look for a drugstore. Kay man si manenay, wara man kamaan nga pwede dun gali ka submit ti application form. buw! palarehos gid kme tana ah. Kung di gani pag lukpan, di man mag hulag.. sigh....

okay. so much for that.

Early this morning (tulog pko tni), antoniette called me...

tOnet: hello. good morning. pwede kay lovely?
tyay: dali lng ha. tawgon ko lng. (pati kna, ako to nag sabat. gina gud tym ko lng sya. heheh)

tyay: cge...hambla lng pa pirma sya anay sng waiver. kitaay lng ta nyo krn after lunch.
tOnet: cge ah...
tyay: cge..bye.

***after that phone call, tulog naman ko liwat. ZzzzzZzzz***

After one hour and thirty-five minutes to be exact. antoniette called again...

tOnet: hello. love!
tyay: oh..
tOnet: nag tx si bam2x. wala man to daw si dean. teh, ano ni man?
tyay: teh kay doc suma lng sya pa sign eh.
tOnet: anay pa. texan ko sya.
tyay: Oo. cge na. kitaay lng ta karon. tex ka lng.
tOnet: cge ah..bye!

tyay: hulat lng...kay bag-o lng ko bugtaw mong...
bam2x: ayteh. alert2x ka lng gle ei...

**after exchanging messages, I finally went to the bathroom and take a bath... It didn't took me longer though kay ga dali na si iyay...

At 11:30...I txted bam2x, telling her that I am waiting at the decipher...
she replied: w8 lng. I'm coming...
and after 20 minutes, finally! nag abot gd man sya. du ma varicoson man ko ka hulat ky iyay ba. sniff..
Anyway, the two of us headed to robinson's mall. first to have our lunch tni. 2nd to fill up the application form. but what had happened is the opposite..heheh..excited gd bi si iyay. After that, we went to mang inasal..syempre paayaw kaon kan-on...bam2x consumed 3 cups of rice. ako ya 2 cups lng...medyo gamay akon compartment eh...smirk!
Nag-apas man si antoniette. wala sya gleng nag eat. heheh. ga tipid sya kno kay dako gasto nya dis week. okie...

After that pabusOg lunch, we went to mercury valeria. And our my story begins here......

It was 2:30 pm when we arrived at the drugstore. we ask one of the employee if their supervisor is around. but he said: 3:00 pa. hulata nyo lng anay. And so we waited until 3:00. the supervisor finally arrives. Then, bam2x and I went inside the ofis to submit tni our forms... Unfortunately...the HEAD, told us that there should only be 3 interns per branch. ky amo ni kno ang gin mitingan nla sa manila. kibot kme eh! the HEAD then told one of the staff to call their other branches to check kng may available pa. Miraculously, the staff said, may ara pa sa mabini. whew! Thank God! she then returned my application forms. then, we went to mercury mabini branch.

At the drugstore, one of the employee approach us. we told her that the mercury (valeria branch) referred us here. we then presented our application forms. then she said: balik kmo by 4:00 kay nag break pa ang manager.

Since wla pman 4:00, antoniette asks us to go with her sa skol ky ma deliver daw sya sng order (not food...but, avon products. basi gusto nyo man mag order?) sa friend sng brod nya...grabe si manenay. business minded gid yah! pautang bi...heheh! joke!

Quarter to 4, blik naman kmi sa drugstore..finally, we were able to meet the manager. She told us that she will only accept one of us, ky 2 interns lng gid kelangan nya. since the drugstore is not that big as compared to the others. Luckily, I was accepted ky kumpleto na tnan ko nga requirements. Unfortunately, Bam2x was not accepted. sad...the manager told her to check their other branches...huhu...sad gid ya..bi ko updanay na kmi ni bam2x.

So we help her look for a drugstore again. then I remember nga may Lady Pharmacy gle near sa rob. so kadto kmi to kag mag inquire... Awa ng Diyos. pwede pa daw ka submit forms. teh nag fill-up naman liwat si iyay sng bio-data. right after nga na submit nya, she was told to come back on monday afternoon to check her status kng accepted sya or not. haiz...tni baton ka lng bam...

Pagkatapos...kad2 naman kme sa sm delgado. kay nag bakal pa si bam2x slipper nya. At around 5:30 we decided to part ways. but nag hapit pa ya si bam2x sa grocery ky mbakal pa daw sya sng kaonon nya. kme ya ni tonet nag sakay sa jeep(ungka u.i. diversion..heheh) kay mpa sukol sya sa aunt nya para sa uniform..naks! excited...& me naman, is in a hurry to go home kay ma type pko blog..heheh! 'coz i want to share our horrible journey to my fellow bloggers :)

Despite of the circumstances, the init, the yab-ok, and the kapoy, I can say that, our day ends teaching us one big lesson: " DO NOT TAKE FOR GRANTED TIME" 'coz once it has passed, we can never bring it back. Nasa huli ang pagsisisi.....

what a mess!

Just this day I realized that I still have some unfinished business...

After the total room make-over.

Here's how it looks...

The world mourns

Who would have not known Francis M.? (raise your hand). He is the master rapper of the century. His songs like mga kababayan ko which shows his being nationalistic, also kaleidoscope( w/ PNE) are just a few which hits the big chart. He's one of the country's renowned rapper/singer/artist/entrepreneur. He is one of the pillars of the showbiz industry.

Unfortunately, fate has paved its way. Last friday, March 6, the entire Filipinos were shocked. I was also shocked. Who would believe it? He's gone. (sigh...) He died after his long battle with cancer. Yes cancer, a disease known to all, the leading cause of death not only among filipinos but also other races. It is a class of diease which proliferates in the body and invades the tissues. Unluckily, the King of Rap has this. He was diagnosed of leukemia just a year ago. He even announce it in public about his condition and the treatment He's about to undergo. His untimely death is a big loss for the country, for the industry. But on the other side of it, is somewhat putting an end after a long time of suffering from too much pain.

For me, death is not an end to everything. Sad though, but we will all get there. It is just the beginning of life. A blissful life free of pain, sufferings, fear and worrisome thoughts. It is in a way living a new life beside our Creator.

Wherever he may be right now, we all know that the King of Rap had already meet the King of Kings face to face, shakes hand with Him and probably talks about having concert? in heaven? hmm...rakrakan! sa langit! alright..

farewell kiko... =)

What would you do if Mr. or Ms. Problem would present him/herself to you?

Here are your choices:
a) give up.
b) give in.
c) solve it.

To help you decide clearly, allow me to share with you my own views on how to deal with these matters. Prior to that, let me define first the word PROBLEM.

According to wikipedia, problem is an obstacle which makes it difficult to achieve a desired goal, objective or purpose. It also refers to a situation, condition or issues that is not yet resolved.

All of us have undergone through difficulties. Take me as an example. Estudyante na Class President pa. Imagine the responsiblities? Aside from studying and doing my homeworks, I still have to allot some of my time attending meetings, making requests(soundbox, mic and ohp as always), include pa gd b ang mga activities in which, all students are oblige to attend and participate because they would always impose this quote and quote "NO ATTENDACE, NO CLEARANCE" policy. grrh..it sucks! it gets into my nerves. Thinking of all these tasks makes me feel nauseated. It seems that my ATPs has all been used up.(huhu..poor me..) weak and haggard.

What will I do? advice..advice..advice..please.

Sometimes, I feel like giving up because it's the easiest possible way to escape such responsibilities. Its just like turning my back, go somewhere else and have fun leaving all those works behind. But my super ego stops me from doing such. It even help me to reflect and realize the effects of my actions. But what do we get when we give up? nada. nothing. wala. It would always remain a problem. I remember my teacher (ppts) she would always say, only losers do give up. They are people who don't want to take the risk. Those who easily give up without even trying. (gosh...) I don't wanna be called a loser. How 'bout you?

Let's try option B. "Give in". hmm...give in to what? temptations? (oh..help me God!). Help me to resist from it. okay. enough kay O.A na. Anyway, this one is a bit complicated because we are under the influence of someone. Might be our parents, friends, colleagues. Our decision is somewhat dependent on them. Agree? Sometimes we let them decide things for us. Agree pa gd? We tend to be submissive. We can't decide on our own because we think that we are incapable of doing such and that their choice is the best. So we always submit to their demands.

In option C, the choice is to SOLVE it. Meaning, we've got to face it and work on it (tapusin ang dapat tapusin). That we have to be brave enough in facing the circumstances. Whatever the result, good or bad, at least we can say that we did our best. That we try solving it on our own. So that we won't regret in the end.

We all make choices. And that choice would deter what we will be in the future. Problems are here not to put us down nor to cause suffering but to test our stregth. Strength on how we would overcome the catastrophe it brings. To see how long we could endure the pain. oOps! tama gd ka senti...

Anyway, just pick your choice. Whatever it is...it would still be at your benefit...As for me, I choose option C.





ps: I know that my blog is a sort of a crap! cge bawi nlang ko next time... buhbye.
