recess!

is typing this really fast as i'm on my self-imposed short break from studying. currently on day 3 of my review...at this point okay pa naman ako. hindi ko pa gustong umiyak nalang sa tabi dahil feeling ko wala na akong pag-asa. ahaha. after grad, we basically had to tell ourselves that THIS IS THE MOMENT! (na we're not really waiting for...more of...sana matapos na po ito LORD GOD!) haha.

i am studying cardiac physio today at my gosh bakit ba kasi napakacomplex ng heart!may sari-sarili pang pressure. systolic pressure. diastolic pressure. pulse pressure. ventricular pressure. atrial pressure. (ahaha. actually nagrerecall din ako ng mga pinag-aralan ko ahahahaha)....dapat meron ding BOARD pressure-->pressure brought about by studying and preparing for the philippine board exams...sabi nga ni HGTOF: "we should just make baka and abolish the boards! it does not define our being doctors!" I know, right?!?!?! grabe. minsan naiisip ko hindi pa ba enough ang 9 na taon na yun (including pre-med haha)...hay nako! no wonder nakakaBRP ang boards ahahaha. all this studying. OMG. i've never felt so afraid about a test in my entire existence! ahahaha. tapos, nag-u-UP review pa kami ngayon every day. well, aside from the 3 points of the UP review I stated in an earlier blog...ang point din ngayon for me ng UP Review ay to release stress and LAUGH. grabe. tawa lang kami ng tawa habang nagmomock exam.

BIOCHEM Day 1: OMG! what are all these choices?!?! HAHAHAHAHA. nagegets nyo pa ba? number 2 palang ako at parang Egyptian ang nakasulat dito sa papel! HAHAHAHAHA. OMG ang gaganda ng scores natin! TESTMANSHIP ang theme! HAHAHAHA.

PHYSIO Day 2: alam mo this is a little bit better than biochem ah! IKR! alam mo din...nabasa ko na ito dati...pero.... HINDI ko na alam! AHAHAHAHAHA.

PHARMA Day 2: 1. ummm....2.eeehhh. 3. nyaaaaaaaaaa. 4. ano ba ito wala akong alam! 5. which drug is used for HPNsive emergency? yehey! 1 point...out of 100! AHAHAHAHHAA.

MICROBIO Day 3: I HATE Microbio!SO many microbes! Bakit pa ba kasi kelangan aralin? antibiotics nalang. ahaha. ang dami nila. bakit ba ako hindi nag micro elective nung pre-med? what the hell-elel are all these fungi chorva...media...chocolate agar...what are the HPV that can cause malignancy? yehey! sabi ng lecturer: sweet 16 and debut! aka 18! AHAHAHAHAHA.

PARASITOLOGY Day 3: Bakit kelangan 100 points? hindi ba pwedeng 10 na lang? OMG. ang daming klase ng Trypanosoma. TESTMANSHIP is the WAY! T. cruzi...cruz! therefore! South America. Why is there infection of this certain parasite even in high class societies? mayayaman? therefore piliin natin ang choice na may....FOOD HANDLERS! (yaya! can you make me baon?) AHAHAHAHAHA.

MEDICINE Day 4: ANG HIRAP. nalulungkot ako. can't remember. i don't know hepa profile. i don't know IDS. i don't know hema. i don't know GI! ang daming hormones. buti nalang may hypertensive emergency at MI ACLS! ahahahaa. sino nagsabi kaya na ang IM na walang aral aral? booooooooo. hahahaha.

OB-GYNE Day 4: ooooi ginawa namin yan sa OBAS. i don't know anatomy. good luck sa menstrual cycle. i forgot staging already. ano ba ito?!?! never do CS for prolonged latent phase. OMG may naka-95! IKR! adik. at guess what...ndi pa siya babae. at ndi sya si percy. ahahahaha. in fairness..high yield pala ang OB rotation....HAHAHA.

now, in a few moments i will again go back to studying cardiac physio. good lord may pulmo pa akong nalalaman. ang taas ng pangarap na tapusin ang mga iyan ngayong gabi...haha. in fairness, habang nag-aaral ako ay narealize ko na

1. ang galing ni God. the human body is so frickin complex.

2. ang toxic siguro nung mga nag-discover na ang heart para tumibok ay may sandamakmak na processes na pagdadaanan na nagaganap in at most 300msecs. adik kayo! hahaha

haaaaaaay. all these medical information. sana one day may maidagdag din ako sa iyo. FOR MORE study material for the future doctors...for their boards! AHAHAHAHHAA. aaaaaaaaaat. ANATOMY pala bukas! ahahaha. i'm so excited for the laughter that we will generate during and after the exam. ahahaha.

Pomp and Circumstance!

still basking in the elation felt after graduation. 2 hours prior. sobrang saya nung grad. BUTH i was super duper tired and after mga 6 hours of pure, unadulterated KAINITAN and uhaw and gutom, i ate like a post duty intern who just had the most toxic duty in OBAS (yung kind na mentos lang ang food intake!) then went online on facebook...and then....slept in pure pagod...only to wake up again because of KAINITAN again at 330am ahahahaha.

went OUT ON PASS yesterday aka as our UPCM College Graduation and Closing Ceremonies of PGH Internship....couldn't help but feel nostalgic about the past 5 years. ngunith! before all the iyakan, tawanan, reminiscing, okrayan, kantahan during graduation came the KAINITAN! sobrang init kahapon. as in. walang point ang pagbabayad sa UP Theater ng 9,000 pesos per hour ng aircon dahil para kaming nasa desert. pagnakatayo ka na onstage ay una mong makikita ang flock of pamaypays (na parang birds! ahahaha) floating in a sea of darkness ahahahahaha. parang agape performance sa trp! AHAHAHAHA.

i must say my favorite moment during our graduation was our processional. sobrang saya nung feeling pagbaba ng stage with Viva La Vida (instrumental version) as our background for ULTIMATE kaartehan. hahahaha. start pa lang nagiiyakan na ang mga friends sa likod! :) then came the grad speaker na pinili ng college na parang naglecture at na-nega pa dahil hindi daw nagflaflash ang slides niya. hello kuya! hindi lecture. graduation po ito. OMG. at dahil doon ay nagsimula na ang aking mga magagaling na mga batchmates mag running commentary of his very weird speech. meron pang WORST TRANS GROUP to trans this frickin speech. for MORE! ahahaha. well in fairness, maganda naman yung message niya kaso siguro yung style niya na "let us make bida my medical school that i am head of "ay medyo weird. hahaha. basta, suffice it to say, that we were not inspired by it. AT ALL. ahaha. slash mainit na mainit pa. (OMG, parang 10 M times ko na sinabing mainit!) then started capping and hooding and my classmates did what they do best to pass the time...

"OI! bongga ang nanay ni... ang damit ah! pang model!" "ay! kamukha talaga sya ng nanay niya!" "awwwwwwww. ang cute ng mga kapatid!" "oi si sir, tulog na sa stage!" "OMG! it's MALA! and she's smiling! ikr?"

hahaha. grabe. I will really miss you friends. sabi nga ni dean nung time capsule laying...there's a certain bond that exists between classmates. :) after all the walking up the stage of all the honor awardees...sabi namin...panalo naman yung mga namamakyaw ng awards. siguro sila ang pinakapagod. iikot ka kasi sa buong theater everytime you have to go up the stage. buth then ang conclusion namin ay kayang kaya naman yan...dahil...para kalang naman nag q15 sa PACU! ahahahaha. ikot ng ikot! ahahaha. then looked around and saw that almost everyone had their caps off because it was too heavy! hahahaha. so biglang tayuan portion na dahil it's time to SWEAR!!!!! let us therefore put back our caps! OMG! pinakamahaba ang sa PGH alumni medical chorvalens. kalevel nung sinasabi sa flag ceremony na "Ako ay kawani ng gobyerno...papasok ako ng maaga...eklat eklat eklat." Nangalay ang right hand ko. ahahaha. and then...we recited the Hippocratic Oath for the first time...at...naluha ako! HAHA. kadiri! ahahahaha. naalala ko kasi nung bata ako at nagdodoktor-doktoran ako sa mga dolls ko... tapos ngayon...OMG. nagkakatotoo pala ang mga dreams. ahahaha.

then it was percy's speech and enjoyed it immensely lalo na sa....

"I would like to thank my blockmates...for signing me in the attendance when i was late..."

where the whole class suddenly shouted ...SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! ahahahaha. that was just way TOO MUCH information ahahaha. and for our finale, we sang our class song, where my MedChoir batchmates and I were brought to tears. every year kasi since our first year, we would sing sa graduation ng UPCM. mula 2006 hanggang 2009...and every year we always wondered what it would be like when our time would come. (and started thinking of schemes of how we would do stuff haha) and then suddenly...kami na ang kumakanta ng TRP song ng batch namin. HUHUHUHU. iyakan portion. sa gitna ng stage for more. with zoom in pa ng camera for even more embarrassment. hahahha. IKR? ahahaha.

I will really miss you batchmates! It is so weird not seeing you or knowing you're just around duty-ing in PGH or going around in community. thanks to our dearest friends and family for their support. I super felt the love. hehehe. kalevel na pagkafeel namin ng heat. ahahaha.

HTGOF, ndi ko na kinaya magsulat ng sarili kong inspirational speech to rival our grad speaker's. haha. na-fry din ng init sa UP Theater ang utak ko ahahaha. :P

CONGRATULATIONS again to 2010! sabi nga sa ating 2010 grad video....

5 years ago,we came together, and became 2010...a class like no other, a class of it's own..gifted...multifaceted...bigaten! 5 years ago, now as it was then....WE ARE 2010!

Bora, Ball, Boards...ahahaha

it is 130 am and I have just returned home from our grad ball...and I'm still soooo awake that I'm blogging. haha. actually, nag-decide lang ang class namin na mag-reconvene sa cyber world with facebook at the helm! haha. upload-an na ng sangkaterbang pictures FOR MORE...

spent the last weekend and first two days of this historical week in Boracay to participate in our yearly surgical mission and got to do insane things...like cleaning teeth! ahaha. also ate at sosyal hotels and resorts for breakfast and dinner...i felt like I was committing a sin by virtue of eating too much. slash. nafee-feel kong miss na lahat ang PGH dahil sa lahat ng kainan namin ng breakfast buffet...everything all comes back to BREAKFASTIVAL! ahahahaha. then started surg mission where I was a HOWLING success! lahat ata ng tinuli ko ay may some reason to scream!!!!! HIYAW HIYAW HIYAW. as in...nagri-ring na ang tenga ko by the afternoon....when we all had assumed our ACU position: aka as ang posisyon mo ng pagtulog sa kahit anong surface available. hahaha.

swam at the beach...ate tons of food...tried to do grad ball stuff...and also tried out the buggy...this bump car like thingy where we go up and down the slopes of the mountain...to see...more grass! ahaha. and i didn't dare drive kasi pagka nasa karnabal ako at bump cars ang sinasakyan ko...yung car ko ay nagspispin on its own axis! AHAHAHA. and also tried the ZORB of judgment (dahil may timbangan involved at height requirement!)...but am soooo hiluhin kaya just went for the one with water inside instead of the harness. it was fun...nafeel ko kung ano ang pakiramdam ng magorbit around the sun! ahahaha. also went out with 2010 friends and saw the live version of the dancing baby in Ally McBeal! ahaha. may some creepy old gay guy kasi na sumasayaw sayaw ng parang robotic movements...at natwilight zone ako...kasi naisip ko...kung tumanda si dancing baby....at naging lolo...ganung ganun ang itsura niya.also had our first BOARD meeting aka meeting regarding boards where we scared ourselves to the point of palpitations regarding the many different things about the Physician licensure exam! so many ALSOs in this paragraph...makes me feel i've done a lot! ahahaha

then went back and saw the world for the IM review. OMG. ganun siguro talaga ang purpose ng review ano? to make you feel the panic...that all these other people know what the hell sine qua non means...and what the sine qua non of these certain diseases are...habang ikaw ang alam mo lang na ang sine qua non mo ay...that you are...human. ahahaha. then crammed more grad ball stuff...made a joint blog with HTGOF...printed programmes....rehearsed grad ball number....

then...biglang. grad ball na kanina. it was a success! i must say for our class simple lang naman ang happiness...and it can be summarized in two words: FOOD and PICTURES! ahahaha. mas pinili pa naming magpapicture on any surface available kesa sumayaw sa dancefloor! sulit na sulit ang photobooth for the camwhores that we were! ahahaha. finished our program and then suddenly, HTGOF and I found ourselves sitting alone on the white tela covered chairs in Hyatt...and suddenly had a mental picture of ourselves 50 years from now...in our island in Coron! we even set aside an empty seat for our co-trinity girl Ate Smoketh hahaha. then watched other people take MORE pictures of themselves. and of others. and of the world. then we just posed and VOILA! may camera biglang lilitaw sa harap mo! parang artista. it was fun being with my dearest classmates again...

just a few more days...and then everything will seem like a dream...i suddenly have this wish that I wake up with a PRC ID with my name indicating that I am now a licensed physician! ahaha.

for MORE! a blog by HTGOF and BOTD

BOTD: "okay. let us start our joint blog HTGOF."

HTGOF: "are we doing this in bullet form, BOTD?

isulat nalang natin lahat ng pumasok sa ating mga utak in conclusion...ahahahaha.

our conclusion is that we will buy an island in coron, where we will grow old like whales in the shore. and if we want some activity one of us will have to push each other! hahahahaha.

conclusion #2: and thennnnnnnnnn....we will buy three rocking chairs (for the trinity) for ourselves with our names....and knitting needles. BUTH waith! magpapakawhale pala kami ahahhaha. so therefore...rocking chairs nalang

HTGOF: wala na akong maisip. Boracay really fried my brain...

BOTD: ako meron!!!! yung 4 phases of lecture listening:

1. attentive phase: actual net absorption from the brain...with scleral show for more attention... hahahaha.

2. gutom phase: where you bug your katabi and say, "may pagkain ka ba dyan?/ parang gustong chichiria? /parang gusto kong lumabas?/ saan tayo kakain mamaya?"

3. restless phase: KAINGAYAN portion/daldalan extreme/let us go to the CR 10M times to make hilamos para magising

4.antok/abulia phase: where you are quiet and you have reached the point of metastable absorption....therefore....titigan sa kawalan!

conclusion #3: let us commenth on Chief Justice!!!!!! Kulang nalang may gavel for everytime na-disappoint sya na wala tayong short term memory!!!!! :) for example...

Chief Justice: What is the sine qua non ofAnkylosing spondylitis?

WORLD: *Cricket Cricket*

*bangs gavel*--> for more judgment! ahahaha.

and then sa may mga upuan namin....

BOTD: ano nga sagot dun sa sine qua non?

Gayferfer: sacroiliitis

BOTD: ano nga yung sine qua non for Bechet's (sp) ?

HTGOF: recurrent apthous ulcers

BOTD: waiiiiiiiiiit....ano nga uli ang sine qua non?

AHAHAHAHHAHAHA.

conclusion #5: the P50 peso meal in Mcdo is not 50 pesos. may upsize kasi na 17 pesos! WTH? bakit ang mahal mahal! BOO to mcdo.

conclusion #6: review na ulit. therefore....goodbye muna for now.

cue in our collective laughter. AHAHAHAHAHHAHA.

conclusion #7: redness is not the same as darkness

HTGOF: everyone in class is so dark ano?

BOTD: no! ikaw kaya hindi nangitim!

HTGOF: red kaya ako...there is redness!

BOTD: redness is not the same as darkness!!!!!

conclusion #8: hindi in order nagaganap ang stages of lecture listening...

15 mins into lecture...

HTGOF: OMG! stage 4 na akoo....i'm so sleepy!

BOTD: ako rin..stage 4 na...zzzzzzzzzzzz.

conclusion #9: ang daming beses na naming nagbang ng imaginary gavel for Chief Justice! ahahaha. for more judgement! ahaha.

AHAHA. HTGOF: dagdagan mo pa coth i forgot our other realithazionth! :)

suspended state of consciousness

in fairness...quietness ang theme/hibernation! what with HTGOF going to the sandy white beaches of boracay...KICK being eaten up by pedia wards....our service senior SAFM (special agent fox mulder) studying for exam....and me....studying silently buth layas ng layas na parang walang bukas! ahahaha. buti nalang...andyan si GMF (googlemyfacebook) at FPMD (frog princess, MD) to keep the matrix/bloggerworld alive. haha.

it is now mid-may and our graduation weekend is just around the corner. like next week na bigla. OMG. malapit na ang real life. joke! feeling ko kasi this state we have right now ay parang suspended state of animation/limbo/purgatory ahahaha. yung kind na hindi mo alam ang gagawin mo so either...

a. tutunganga ka nalang
b. magfafacebook/mag blo-blog/manonood ng series
c. mangungulit ng mga classmates
d. mapre-pressure at mag-aaral
e. magliliwaliw sa magagandang lugar

at dahil COMPRE/higher level ang moda...modified multiple choice/true or false dapat! Choose A if the first three statements are true, choose B if the last statement is true, choose C if the first and the third are true, choose D if all are true, choose E if none are true. AHAHAHAHA. basta ko ang sagot ko ay....D!!!! hahaha. FOR MORE! ahahaha.

anyway, ang dami dami pang gagawin....for grad...grad ball...thanksgiving brunch....tarps...videos, videos, videos, musical numbers....kaartehan.kaartehan.and MOOOOOOOOORE kaartehan. ahaha. so now, while pretending/attempting/trying to study for boards we are distracting ourselves by reminiscing/making video after video, tarps na marami, shiny glittering letters, seat plans for grad, looking for grad and grad ball dresses. haha....while not thinking of what lies beyond the board exams which is real life. harharhar. sabi nga sa aming book of knowledge ni HTGOF na nakalimutan ko ang title...we'll cross the bridge when we get there! that's what friends are for! ahahahahaha.

everyday feeling ko i'm living in a life that's not supposed to be mine. parang hindi na talaga ako sanay. haaaaaay. pero ayoko naman bumalik sa aking everyday-without -neganess -is- like -a -day- without- sunshine state nung internship! ahahaahaha.so i guess okay naman lang ang aking GCS10 level na life ngayon ahahaha.

oh well...must get ready and pack...for i will also be going to the beach with HTGOF and our sisses and brods for our annual medmission...in Aklan. ahaha. for mooooore silence....hahaha.

end of nothingness...start of madness

started the new life aka board exam studying period today. at ang pinakamasaya ay hindi ako nagising ng alarm, hindi ako nakapagsimba...hindi ako naka-jog...BUTH! in fairness...may some semblance of aralan namang naganap...at may pagkain...at may pagtulog! ahahahahaha.

grabe. ang hirap na talagang itulak ang self para mag-aral. parang dati naman kebs lang...pwede bang 1+1 nalang ulit? ahahaha. i was reading first aid and omg...para na naman akong kumuha ng foreign language book dahil while looking at the biochem diagrams....nag wawarning signs na ang utak ko ng...CANNOT PROCESS DATA! NO DATA AVAILABLE! SHUTTING DOWN! ahahaha. so went to the middle of the book to look at the clinical part....and studied what i want ahahahaha. madayang bata. ahahaha. and after 10M years...no...joke lang...1 hour pa lang...SOBRANG ANTOK NA ANTOK NA AKO! OMG. therefore...tomorrow...i will chug 10L of extra joss! ahahahaha. dahil bawal matulog. buth then again kung kaharap mo ay ang coagulation cascade!?!?!?!! ahahaha. good luck nalang talaga with all those frickin factors of doom. ahahaha. nag-DIC talaga ako...as in ang level ay...will go back to that when i've read other books. ahahaha.

then when i couldn't stand it anymore ay natulog na muna talaga ako/kumain/sumilip ng message ni god sa facebook hahahaha... for more peace of mind...after which i read again... and prayed to god that sana may some retention na naganap kasi feeling ko pagbaba ko palang sa next segment hindi ko na alam yung nabasa ko...parang yung pagsobrang pagod na pagod ka na tapos ikaw pa yung monitoring ng 3 am...pagkaBP mo...after the 2nd korotkoff mag-B-BP ka na ulit...kasi...nakalimutan mo na ang value ng 1st sound ahahahaha.

then da-duh texts me that may grad ball worksession pala today. OMG. i so totally forgot! and we have to do the display tarps and the big letters and the glittery double sided tapes with starrrrrrrrrrrs! FOR MORE. so nung nag-give up na talaga ang utak ko at 430pm...tumakbo na akong school to reprieve myself from this madness.

saw the worksesh going on at the temple...of knowledge aka pagk at nawindang ako nung nakita ko ang ALL. omg! we are the world in PAGK ang theme. for more unity and for more class spirit! ahahaha. anyway, helped our grad ball comm with the giant letters and glittered myself with silver dust while laughing out loud with HTGOF and da-duh! ahahaha. at suddenly parang kebs na ulit ang kabaliwan nung umaga brought about by the impending boards. haha. laughter is indeed the best cure...for ALL! second to that is laughter secondary to kanegahan...ahahaha. then saw ate smoketh and suddenly parang napossess kami ni HTGOF at nagsimula kaming magsalita at magkwento at tumawa in the LOUDEST possible voice. like OMG. parang magkakaharap lang tayong lahat!!!! IKR? ahahaha.

then HTGOF and I used our powers to convince GBPA (grad ball punong abala) to watch here comes the bride with us and our friends ahaha....for MORE...celebration of the start of studying! UMARTE. ahaha. and had a lot of life altering lessons during the movie...buth it's late and i can't think of them anymore. hahaha.

hope there's more method to my madness tomorrow! ahahaha. go go go classmates! simula palang...ng kabaliwan! ahahahaha.

PCOS...machine.

6:10 am...
Mommy: *in a really excited voice*"Anak...gumising ka na! BOBOTO na tayoooooooooooooo!"
BOTD: "zzzzzzzzzzz"
Mommy: "HOY! ano ka ba! tumayo ka dyan!bilisan mo! mauunahan na tayo ng kapitbahay natin!"
BOTD: "huh?walang contest.walang prize. kebs.zzzzzzzzzzzzzz"
Mommy: *while sitting and bouncing on the bed with our dog!*"NGAYON NA!get up! tataba ka nyan! tara na!" *at nahila na ako pababa ng bed. booooooo.*

7am...
dumating kaming 3 sa Celedonio Salvador Elem School at naghanap ng presinto. when we got there...may mga 30+ people na...at AGIT na sila lahat! ahahaha. at eto ka...kasi like 630 pa pala sila doon aaaaaaaaat....wala pang nangyayari. tapos they were given numbers from 1-30 tapos hindi pa nagstastart kasi ang bagal ng comelec people. and then there was this teacher na itago natin sa pangalang...brenda starr...*dahil para syang baliw na hindi nag-iisip! like patrick star! ahahaa* anyway...sya ang naatasang mag-"usher" sa mga bagong dating. OMG. kawawa sya. para syang triage intern. inaaway ng WORLD. ahahaha.

"BAKIT HINDI PA KAMI MAKABOTO? BAKIT ANG BAGAL? HINDI BA COMPUTERIZED NA? BAKIT WALA KAMING NUMBER? BAKIT ANG SENIOR CITIZEN PINAPAANTAY NIYO? BAKIT WALA AKO SA LISTAHAN E NAGREGISTER AKO? BAKIT WALA KAYONG KWENTA? BAKIT MAINIT?"

at isipin ninyong sinasabi yan in rapid fast Tagalog in pure sabayang pagbigkas mode! OMG. get me out of HEEEEEEEEEEEERRREEEEEE! i was so sad i didn't bring my phone para nakapagtext man lang ako to free myself from all the thoughts in my head...boooo. and then brenda starr goes...

"Sandali lang po....sandaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllliii lang. mahirap po kasi maghanap ng pangalan. iveverify pa po...yung mga senior citizen po mag-antay lang po tayo kasi unfair naman sa mga nauna..."

and then off she goes to her home base habang lahat ng tao nagrarant. whine.whine.whine. nega.nega.nega. at pagtingin ko sa relo ng kapitbahay namin...830 na pala. OMG! i therefore conclude...filipinos hate waiting. we are an impatient group of people. feeling ko kasi...masyado na tayong matagal nag-aantay...in life...in general. so 0% tolerance ang theme. at pag-gising ko from my muni-muni ay biglang...may 10M senior citizens ng nakapila sa harap. ABA! ABA! ABA! hindi makatarungan! and then suddenly...may angry mob na sa likod dahil may 10 rows na of pure pa-snake na line na pala at nag NENEGA na sila in their loudest voices...i couldn't even hear my thoughts!

"BAKIT ANG DAMING SENIOR CITIZEN! MAY MGA KASAMA PA YANG HINDI SENIOR! O BAKIT NASA PILA YAN, BATANG BATA PA ANG ITSURA NIYAN! DAHIL BA NAKASALAMIN SYA SENIOR CITIZEN NA SYA! PUMILA KAYO! HINDI DAHIL MATANDA KAYO MAUUNA NA KAYO!"

omg. na-flashback moment ako.feeling ko nasa kfc xiamen ako ulit. short background: nagpunta ang choir namin last 2006 sa xiamen,china to compete sa world choir olympics. and then we decided to buy sa kfc doon. at lunchtime pag pasok namin...parang PALENGKE! sigawan to the max. at kahit nakapila ka...nakaorder na pala ang mga nasa likod mo dahil sumisigaw sila. e malay ba namin kung ano sinasabi nila in chinese! ANG INGAY talaga. pure. at ang init pa. at amoy pawis pa ang mga tao. at biglang change scenery na ako to ACU! ahaha. pinaka... nakakaloka. naisip ko bigla...is it like this everywhere? maybe ganoon nga talaga. totoo nga siguro yung dati kong thought na dahil poorita...kelangan pumila. i wonder if sa precinct sa forbes park nagnenegahan din ang mga sosyal. ahaha.

finally after more pagnenega. Brenda starr suddenly declared na "para fair po, magsasalit-salitan tayo....isa papasok mula sa pila na may number at isa mula sa pila ng senior citizen. okay? OK."

then...nagsimula na naman ang angry mob magchant. chant.rant.chant.rant.nega.nega.whine. naisip ko bigla. i need water. WAAAAAAAAAAATER. and oxygen. this is so much NEGA than i can handle. take me out of the dark. buti nalang naawa si GOD at pinapila na kmi sa pila na may number at number 5 ako.

then...pagsilip ko 9am na! kamusta naman. huhu. goodbye to all my plans of jogging. pinakamainit na. but then again...namawis na naman ako like NO OTHER. hay nako. ako na next. then saw the longest EVER scantron! with matching script ni koya comelec na: "pakicheck nga po kung may mga marka eklat, ok pwede na po sulatan" and then off i go and vote. grabe. sana manalo ang taong makakapag-tanggal ng endless waiting time for government related stuff.

930am...

SUCCESS! kinain ng PCOS machine ang scantron. your vote has been registered. yahoo! paglabas namin...nagkakagulo naman dun sa ibang precinct. sigawan portion. I AM SO GLAD TO BE OUT OF THERE! bwahahaha.


sana next year...mas maayos na! haha.

of stars...and being left behind...

omg. i didn't blog for one whole day! PROGRESS! i have some semblance of a life outside of my template (thanks for that btw, HTGOF! ahahaha. tawang tawa pa rin ako sa blog entry mo!) ... kelangan na mag-evolve dahil ayoko maging kagaya nung space living humans dun sa WALL-E! naguusap gamit ang computer kahit magkatabi. buth! BUTH! OMG. HTGOF and KICK! nagawa na natin ito in pure adikness sa GJ's! hahaha. IKR?

finally finished with all the latak of internship yesterday what with our make up sgd on eviscerated bowels. haha. and nakakatawa kasi nakauniform pa talaga kami! at ang chismisan ay nagsimula sa...

"LEGAL pa ba na mag-uniform tayo? at this day of this year? " "sira na nga uniform ko eh!"" ang ineeeeeet!"

hahahaha. tapos nag-usap usap about how great it is to have this newfound state of nothingness! and how we didn't look at the powerpoint till like 5 mins PTS (prior to sgd) ahahahaha. then we went on to our obligatory i miss you friends chika...

"grabe! ang weird pala ng walang kausap buong araw!" "oo nga! alam mo yung may naisip ka bigla tapos gusto mo magkwento tapos pagtingin mo...HANGIN!" "ako kasama ko nanay ko at natuwa ako kasi yung ginagastos ko na 90 pesos na 12 pcs na baked tahong from Victoria Corazon ay halos isang kilo nung nagluto siya!" "grabe miss ko na kayo! OMG alam nyo ba na..."

chismis. chismis. rant. rant. about pedia! chismis more about prc requirements! TOR! class friggin ranking! "bakit pa kelangan ng ranking, anong point kung ikaw ay 159? or worse kung ikaw yung 160?!?!?! omg. kung ako yun, itatapon ko nalang ang 50 pesos worth na papel!" aaaaaaaaand more kwento about our HELLO WORLD compre grades!!!! then consultant arrives and we do our obligatory SGD...insert some commed eklavu about mothers not having UTZ thereby making them unaware of gastroschisis THEREFORE...tapos na bigla at uwi na tayong lahat.

then, hurried back home to finish lacoste's video. then father bass calls me to tell me they're gonna be in manila and mother alto is leaving na rin on sunday. so before i go to lacoste's party i pass by rob to see mother alto and say bye bye and good luck and hope to see you soon. and then ran off to makati at nakasabay ko na ata lahat ng miting de avance...there's like one for atienza, one for lim, one for binay, at dahil dun....PINAKAtraffic. chaka. but was able to go and surprise lacoste after not seeing her for almost a year. i miss my college friends. buth then again when we were there na-realize ko na sobra na akong nakain ng medschool at hindi na ako maka-relate sa kanilang kwento...about the real world. outside of medschool! at least may mga hospital related stuff pa rin...and standard questions like...

"Congrats! ano na gagawin mo? what's your plan? will you stay here? will you go abroad? will you moonlight? do you have a boyfriend? can i consult?"

AHAHAHAHA! and one of my classmates who took med in another medschool suddenly declared na..."i will go to this nice private hospital...kasi ayoko na ng PANGET na ospital!" ahahaha. tawang tawa kami ni Sharona, my sis and kabarkada since college...kasi kung si classmate from another medschool ay nakasama namin sa PGH siguro nagquit na sya after one day in our very nice hospital. hahahaha. at ang nasagot ko sa mga standard questions ay...

"thanks! my plan is that i will take the boards. i don't know. i don't know. at the moment ayaw ko pa magmoonlight (but in reality, nakakatakot kaya!parang kelangan ko pa ng more training!). no boyps.(IKR? kay saklap...buth then again? masaya naman din...i think! hahaha) sure why not?"

and then we went off to have sgds with ourselves and our common friends about the weather...and boards...and the weather...and how lacoste will surely be successful in the UK and how we will miss her so much and we wish we could also earn pounds...that will not be converted to fat...and how we wish na sana ang init na nararamdaman natin ngayon ay makapagpatunaw ng taba...to finally more exciting things like...OMG! nakita ko sa facebook si classmate nating si...with...at....THEREFORE... HAHAHAHA.

then, went home and pondered on people left behind. hahaha. kanina kausap ko na naman si HTGOF sa FB and during our very deep conversations ay naisip namin...

BOTD:grabe ano, kawawa naman yung mga nasa pelikula na iniiwan kasi hindi sila yung bida sa movie.
HTGOF: oo nga. like me...
BOTD: yeah...
HTGOF: hindi bida...
BOTD: hay, kelan kayo tayo magiging bida?!?!?!
HTGOF & BOTD: siiiiiiiiighhhhhhhhh

HAHAHAHA! ahahaha. kaloka.kulang na lang tumambay kami sa tabi ng bintana at manood ng bumabagsak na patak ng ulan for ULTIMATE kaartehan. naisip ko lang...in fairness, in life...madalas ako ang naiiwan.

sabi nga namin ng pinsan kong si BUTLER, buti pa ang mga pinsan nating nag-aabroad, alis ng alis, nakakatulong sa mga kapamilya...habang tayo...ang mga dakilang tiga-hatid sa airport at taga sabi ng "babay! ingat ka! pasalubong ko! don't forget!!!!! " ahahaahahaha.

and like me and HTGOF...napabuntong-hininga nalang kami sa gilid...at naisip na one day..."sisikat din tayo! at magiging bida!" ahahahahahahaha.

maling akala...

initially told myself that I wouldn't blog today...para naman hindi masyadong mahalata na wala akong kausap dito sa house ahahahaha. my plans to do anything productive today were thwarted by my monthly dysmenorrhea...kung saan nagiging CBR ako BUTH in fairness...kayang kaya ko naman magdangle legs on bed... slash gumapang papuntang computer para maginternet. HAHAHA.

recently learned that one of my college barkada will be going away to the greener pastures of UK to be a croc (OMG! may good friend ako na croc!though, i'm sure hinding hindi sya kagaya ng crocs sa PGH kasi ndi naman sya doon nagtrain ahahaha) ...at feeling ko kung cartoon ako at nakita nyo ako noong nalaman ko ang news... ang itsura ko ay yung cartoon na yung mata napalitan ng pounds sign yung mga iris! ahahahaa...sabi naming maiiwan...

OMG magkakapounds na sya ng bonggang bongga...ang saya naman magkapounds na hindi taba kundi pera! buti pa siya, na itatago natin sa pangalang LACOSTE...magkakabritish accent na...magiging mayaman pa! ahaha. *insert bitterness here* ahahahaha. tayo kaya kailan?

and due to that i am making again a video for her sendoff...initially thought AGAIN...na kung magbloblog ako e pagka-loka na naman sa aking naghahang na computer ang topic. BUTH! i was wrong....

as said earlier, ako ngayong ang pambansang LO ng block namin dahil ako lang ang nasa manila. aaaaaaaand guess what, yung aming SGD sa pedia na never natuloy secondary to MRI aka monitor-related-inefficiency ay matutuloy na daw finally on Friday. so, technically...ok lang naman yun...BUTH! eto ka....resident monitor na itago natin sa pangalang...GREMLIN (dahil kunyari mabait sya pero underneath it...isa syang creature...with FANGS!!!)...ay sinabi sa aming LO...na kami na raw ang magcontact dun sa isa pang block tapos kami rin daw yung magreserve ng room. E HELLO!?!?! parte pa ba kami ng PGH? HA? mag-isip nga siya! e tinatanong na nga kami nung mga guard kung saan kami papunta kapag pumapasok kami dahil take note...TAPOS NA INTERNSHIP!!!! actually pag inisip ko pa ng mas mabuti...parang mas maganda kung ang pangalan nalang niya ay PASALOAD! ahahahaha. DAHIL PINAPASA NIYA ANG LAHAT! bwiset talaga. yung pinahahanap pa niyang person ay malay ba namin kung sino at wala pa siyang sinabing room. pano kung gusto namin magSGD sa BSLR? or sa SCIENCE HALL? kaya bang ireserve nung gusto niyang pagreserve-an namin noon? e sa pedia lang naman sya assigned. hay naku. ano ba kasi ang ginagawa nitong si pasaload sa life? e db senior na sya? hay naku, magsama sila ni corpse bride. thanks to ate frichmond for helping me out. dapat si pasaload ay arestuhin na at isumbong talaga sa kinauukulan. grabe talaga siya. kung open pa votes ng sunugan lang ngayon...ipepetition ko din sya! ahahahahaha

haaaaaaaaay nakoooooo. i'm palpitating. in pure kainisan. portion. anyway. and what's up with the internet of pldt? umulan lang...naging ubod na ng bagal. kinagat siguro ng mga gremlin ang wires! grrr. so ngayon pinakamabagal mag load ang mga pages. at ang dinodownload ko na glee ay like 3.5 kbps per minute...from 55 kbps!!!! that's really slow. as in PGH stat lab results level ng kabagalan. booness. so ngayon ndi ko pa din napapanood ang bagong episode. tapos compre grades are out...with names...for ULTIMATE embarassment. pero ndi ko pa din nakikita ang result secondary to this kabagalan. haha.

haaaaaaaaay. snail kung snail ang internet ha! nakita ko na ang compre score ko bago mapost ang blog na ito ahahahaha. at dahil naubos ko na ang nega quota ko for this day...will now resume video making duties hahaha.

lessons in life...

accomplished a lot today...for my week of nothingness! ahahaha. went to school again (parang ngayong hindi ko na kailangan pumasok e ngayon naman ako balik ng balik ng pg) ...anyway, to register for the medboard orientation aka as the "faker up review" dahil ngayon lang ulit nagbukas ang mga offices secondary to teambuilding aka summer outing! ahahaha.


ngunit bago ang lahat at bago ako makapagbayad ay narealize ko na great...wala pa pala akong pera. therefore...pumunta akong banko...at na-feel ko bigla na asa OPD ako! shiyet ang haba ng pila! PILA na pa-snake ang theme...reminiscent of the BOX OFFICE long lines at OPD ahahaha. ngunith! NGUNITH! dahil poorita...kelangan pumila. (dapat yan nalang ang tag line sa OPD!) so anyway, after an hour..yay may pambayad na ako!

met up with my classmates and HTGOF to pay sa OUR after their trip to 168 aaaaaand naisip namin ano kaya ang mapupulot namin sa UP review na ito...and after our survey of 09 people and friends who took it before...na narrow down into 3 points...ang point ng UP review/ kaya ako mag-u-UP review/ ang mapupulot ko sa UP review ay ang sumusunod:

1. para malaman ko na "all that I know...is that I know nothing!" (therefore magpanic mode ka na after!)
2. para malaman ko ang tips ng mga nauna at malaman kung paano magreregister sa PRC
3. para madama ko at maisapuso ko ang central theme/ mission vision ng UP REVIEW na:
" the review depends on you! "


AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. so in fairness...may kwenta naman itong pinagpipilahan natin sa OUR kung saan sinasabihan pa kami na " good day shoppers! it is now 1130am...therefore kakain na kami...SO GET OUT OF HERE cause we have to FRICKIN eat cause there's only one cashier open at nagtetelebabad lang ang isa! Thank you for making the OUR (office of the univ registrar) a part of your day!" JOKE! syempre paulit ulit silang nagsabi na BREAK time na po kasi...BREAK time. ok fine. so kumain muna kami at nagchismisan about elections (for which I still have no candidate cause I'm so kebs)...and na notice ng aking ex blockmate na si Santa Baby na marami daw mayayamang naka-yellow dahil kina-campaign ang candidate na ito...so ang conclusion bigla ay si candidate ay parang designer brand na nagbebenta ng mga super plain shirts pero mahal...so therefore para siyang Giordano shirt...ang mahal mahal for a plain shirt na may palakang maliit. hahaha. oh well...at nung nagsawa na kami doon ay napag-usapan naman namin ulit ang mga SCL (aka summa cum laude) classmates namin at kung gaano sila kagaling/ka-weird/how their methods defy our imagination mag-aral...dahil sila lang ang mga kilala naming nag-eenjoy with continuous barrage of exams because it exercises daw their brain! OMG! at after naman nun ay na-conclude namin na in life we shouldn't be sad or sorry for ourselves...dahil kung akala mo weird ka...meron at merong MAS WEIRD sa iyo...at kung akala mo kawawa ka...meron pang MAS KAWAWA...at kung feeling mo pangit ka...meron at meron pang... fill in the blanks nalang for more! ahahahaha.


so after our contemplation of life's lessons, we finally got to pay sa OUR at nakakuha ng sked for the up review. after which I went back to the dorm to finally move out. and pagka-clear out ko ng gamit ko...na-flashback ako sa time nung pa-move in pa kami sa dorm...nung mukha pa syang horror house/ kulungan in pure kalawang ng mga kama. hahaha. i will really miss the dorm and it's convenience being 5 mins from the ER and the hospital. hehehehe. medyo nagsisink in na unti-unti na hindi na ako part ng dati kong buhay... at naisip ko omg! does dying feel like this?!?! ahahaha. (that was such a psychiatric moment, hindi ko kaya! ahahaha.)

hay naku! i'm sure...nasa may PGH na naman ako bukas! ahahahahaha.

back to nothingness...

woke up at 530am to jog...so lumabas ako sa bahay kasama nung doggie namin na poodle...and started jogging...after approximately 10 meters, CHF FC IV na ako in PURE hingalan portion while my dog looked at me like I was such a lampayatot. grabe talo pa ako ng little doggie.hahahaha. i can run up and down the 8 floors of PGH pero shucks...hindi talaga keri ng powers ko magjogging. haha. so after approximately 15 minutes of "jogging" dahil nung hindi ko na kaya...naglakad nalang ako... therefore... bumalik na ako sa bahay in pure POLYDIPSIA. hahaha.

anyway, got a text yesterday that FINAL list of deficiencies for IM will be posted today....so had to go to school bilang only remaining blockmate in Manila/LO for IM ahahaha. aaaaaaaaaand... after 1 year, I am finally FREEEE...no more reminding my blockmates to pleeeasssssssssssseee naman blockmates, tapusin niyo na ang SUBSPEC ninyo! ahahahahahaha. while i was in PGH, saw ate queela and the NA-buster and learned that we have a STASH sale sa atrium. OMG. stash sale? therefore may classmates ako around!!!!! must go see them. haha.

went to the atrium and literally my eyes popped out after seeing ALL THAT STASH! ahaha. grabe, ang gagaling ng batchmates kong mag-JEKJEK! (claudita, 5/1/2009) ahahaha....as in shortcut of jekwat/mang-nenok ng mga gamit na gagamitin para sa pasyente! may nakita pa ata akong chest tube doon for MORE! sabagay dati sa stash ko may Epi nga akong najekjek! hahaha.
sobrang mura like 20 pesos for ALL KINDS of IV cannula. (walang discrimination involved)...even yung elusive purple cannula for the neonates and the best blue cannula for all the edematous patients, CI pts, and the yellow cannula for the kids and those-that-could-no-longer be lined by big cannulas secondary to a lot of things! ahahaha. and 4 pesos for ALL KINDS OF VIALS! omg. pati yung mga pinakamahirap hanapin na 2 cc na purple top...hahaha. and heplock for 20! aaaaaaaaaaaand ang pinakabargain sa lahat...LEUKOPLAST for 20 pesos only! OMG. grabe. so to the clerkies! BILI na kayo...FOR MORE. sabi nga namin...there is no such thing as TOO MUCH STASH...because you always have to be prepared or else be prepared to hear a mouthful from the residents...

"bkit wala ng heplock? bkit wala ng cannula na yellow? bkit wala ng cotton balls?!?!?!bkit wala ng gloves? alcohol? hindi ba free for all ang red top vial? "

at kung nangyari yan all sorts of NEGAHAN ensue. at para maiwasan ang wrinkles...bumili ka nalang ng STASH!!!!! ahahahahaha. one buyer asked us why was it like that eh it's not your fault that the patient is poor and that the hospital has no stuff...at ang nasabi namin reminiscent of Professor V and Reci's Goodsall's moment...." e ganun kasi...THAT's THE RULE!!!!" HAHAHAHAHA. at napatango nalang ang aming buyer as we said that statement in full YODA mode. hahahaha.

aaaand in the spirit of robin hoodness...all proceeds of our stash sale will go to SAGIP BUHAY as a donation from our class. oooooooooi.

in fairness, mahirap naman talaga mag-accumulate ng stash. you have to be really creative and be very observant. at dapat wala kang pinalalampas...kahit OS...no wonder we had a lot of really weird stash dun sa sale kanina! kasi nga naman sa POORITA sa GAMIT HOSPITAL nagkakaroon talaga ng time na wala lahat....naalala ko pa tuloy ang time na nagscrub in kami using pNSS dahil naubos yung tubig sa OR! ahahahaha. at yung time na walang gauze sa ortho so walang CDW kasi nawasak ang autoclave! at kelangan mong tumakbo from ER to Ward 5 kasi walang KY sa ACU. at nung kailangan mong tumakbong ACU from ward 3 kasi walang Amiodarone sa code cart sa ward... ahahahaha. great. GREEEEEEEEEEEAT. pati gloves pala! ahahaha. dahil wala kasing gloves ang PG...ets... ngunit, hands down, ang feeling ko na pinakaWEIRD na gamit na ina-accumulate namin dati ay yung mga plastic cups na galing canteen or wherever fastfood....dahil kelangan mo for ABG! OMG. ahahaha. yung kind na magkakalkal ka sa basurahan in PURE and UTTER desperation just to find any semblance of anything that could be cut and be a "cup" to put your ABG specimen. in fairness...wala naman po kaming plastic cup sa stash sale kanina! AHAHAHAHA.

after helping out in our stash sale and reminiscing about the many CREATIVE ways we got stash...all conversations went back to two words: BOARDS and FUTURE!

"shucks nag-aral na si ganito ganyan sa boards!" "oi nagsimula na pala UST review today!" "OMG, should I sell all this stash? what if kailanganin ko pa ito sa FUTURE?!?!" "OMG, I'm so torn...should I keep this for the FUTURE or ibenta ko cause baon is a thing of the past?!?!" "OMG i don't have a FUTURE...YET!"

ahahahahahaha. nakakatawa talaga mga tao. basta ako...this week is for all things not related to boards and future...therefore...nothingness! NOTHINGNESS is great! ahahahaha. kahit yung message ko from GOD is telling me that I should take a break. I LOVE IT! haha.

...now back to more nothingness activities...like glee marathon and making okray the crazy politician outfits and commercials on TV! ahahahahaha.

FAMAS!...ang theme! ahahaha

...at dahil bored pa din ako...simulan na natin ang end of trans THANK YOU greetings mode! during the early years of medschool, i remember ang greetings parang comic strip/entertainment section ng dyaryo...yung pinaka-mabenta na part! inaayos pa talga ng lahat ang format magkaroon lang ng added space to greet. hahahaha.

(disclaimer: mahaba ito.so pag tinatamad kayo...don't read it ahahaha...pero kung babasahin niyo...matotouch ako ahahahaha)

sa medschool ko naranasan ma-group in all the kinds of paghahati known to man...feeling ko kasi sa OSI...teamwork ay isang pinakaimportant lesson..at dahil diyan...nagkaroon kami ng lahat ng pwedeng -mates na mabuo! anatomates, researchmates, pharmamates, seatmates, mentormates, etc! sa dami ng taong nakasalamuha namin nung med...there are just TOO MANY people to thank. at dahil dyan...by group nalang! ahahahaha.

FOREVERCLERKSHIPGROUPMATES: granny, mommy and girlfriend: thank you!!!! it was such a joy working with you guys...lalo na nung times na lost na lost pa tayo...nothing beats MONITORING the critically ill to escape the panonoxic of our pinakamautos na resident ahahaha.

pero syempre most of all...i thank GOD for allowing me to have this life and for that call last may 31, 2005 from the UPCM admissions office.

bumhood...

on my 2nd day of nothingness...i realized that i have no life. ahahahaha. ang loser ko pala hahahaha. parang majority of what i do is centered on hospital based work,hospital based friends, and of course! (of corth!) hospital based neganess. so now that i'm out of the hospital ...wala na. it's just me, myself, and facebook! ahahahahaha. yesterday, in pure nostalgia mode I went back to get some stuff from the dorm...which I have yet to vacate hahaha (buti nalang may 1 month transition period)... and was weirded out by the fact na hindi na kami ng batchmates ko ang gumagala gala around. at in pure boredom, ate queela and I went with roomie 7th heaven to SRO to "help" her pass her index card kay sir jd. hahaha. tapos naguusap usap kami kung ano feeling ng may 1, 2010 na walang gagawin...

"para kang pumasok na walang relo!" "hindi! para kang pumasok na walang damit! pinakaWEIRD! ahahaahahaha" "ako, kebs! nagising ako ng 9 at yehey hindi ako tatakbong pgh!" "parang inertia...FULL STOP! parang naglalakad ka ng steady lang for the past 5-7 years tapos bigla kang nahulog sa bangin!"

...ahahahhaahahaha. and with that we set off for SRO with the biggest smiles on our faces...grateful for the fact that we will be going to pgh and not go there for anything work related. ahahaha. slash meron pa kami lahat POST-SUNOG GLOW!/pimples! ahahahaha. grabe ang init ng fire na yon ha! also looked if the new interns are now wearing coats as previously gossiped about...yun pala June pa. good for them dahil at least hindi na sila matatawag na hoy/nurse/ate/kuya ng kung sino sino...pero just the thought na PINAKAmainit sa pgh...good luck friends! haha. :)

then talked with HTGOF over, wherelse, FB chat and we were both complaining of our lack of lives and how we missed our stable hospital life...where you wake up...go to your rotation for the day...eat at MH...and just do our ultimate favorite thing to do...mang-okray ng tao, bagay, pangyayari sa mundo...then...you go home and facebook! ahaha. or nung latter part of the year...blog! hahaha. pero ngayon...sabi nga ni HTGOF..."who do we okray now?!?!" ahahahaha. kahit na puro pagnenega lang kami forever...i guess pgh has become the place we love to hate. hahaha. edited to add...naisip din namin ni HTGOF... na OMG...since we're out of PGH..."tayo na ang ookrayin!" the thought. shudder shudder.

so today, i have realized it has been 10M years since i was able to watch ASAP and all the other shows on TV! parang ang huling beses eh yung nahulog si claudine sa hagdan with matching pagmumura on national tv! AHAHAHAHA. and to think....kapuso na pala sya ngayon!?!?! ahahahaha. nakatulog na din ako to the point of migraine headaches dahil OA na sa katagalan ang pagtulog ko! so now, andito na naman ako sa internet. hahaha.


grabe...can't remember how life was before medschool...i guess that's why before you start tinatanong ka lagi ng lahat kung sigurado ka talagang magme-med ka...hahahahahaha. hay naku! all this nothingness is making me FAT! must really start jogging tomorrow. hahahaha.
