when a day separates a year...

last day of 2010. siiiiiiiiiiiiigh. ibang klaseng saya ang naidulot sa akin ng taong ito. ito ang taong lagi naming isinisigaw for the past 5 years...signifying the fulfillment of a dream. in most cases (like mine)...a lifelong dream. this is the year we start living the dream. after all the craziness, studying, sleepless nights, negahan, tawanan comes MORE kabaliwan, pag-aaral, pagkapuyat at tawanan. at ngayong matatapos na siya in 5 hours! OOOOOOH.

nakakatuwang nakakalungkot na matatapos na ang taong sinabi mong...iyo (in english...THIS IS MY YEAR!) AHAHAHA. pinaka JINARTS. wahahahahaha. anyway...kasabay ng paglipat ng taon ay ang pag-iwan ng kanegahan, jinarts at katamaran sa paalis na taon.

i immensely thank all those who made this year very memorable...
my crazy family, who I learned to appreciate even more this year...ang saya talaga pag kasama mo ang iyong mga kapamilya hahaha.
the bigaTENS! my family in the medical field. para tayong sumali sa isang pinakamalaking fraternity/sorority! this year was indeed ours! good luck to those starting residency and to us who are still swimming...let's just keep swimming! AHAHAHA.
my friends who understand all my craziness! AHAHAHA. to HTGOF and Ate Smoketh who I consider my sisters from another mother, I love you both! this year was truly happy with you at the helm! AHAHAHAHA. gj friends! SAFM, Ate Enjh, alta friends, bioman friends, choirmates :)
my mothership friends, good luck sa ating maraming maraming titingnan next year!

next year I pray for MORE...more blessings, more friends, more love, more pera, more peace. AHOOOOOOOOY. :)

thank you 2010! :)

interlude...

patapos na ang long weekend/Christmas holidays and as usual I am craving for more...more...even more....VACATION! ahahaha. like it's never enough. vacation is like sleep...parang mahirap ma-get over ang lack of it. AHAHAHAHAHA.

and so in the spirit of Kapaskuhan all the movies in the different channels are so cheezy...i looooove it!!!! in the span of 4 days I have watched Four Christmases, Runaway Bride, While you were Sleeping, The Parent Trap, Enchanted, Finding Nemo, Big Daddy, One more Chance, In My Life ( na pinaka-putol...can't believe the I think ano moment was not included!), and for more...10 Commandments (which is currently playing in the background!) add to that.... the Ogie Regine Wedding and the MMFF Awards Night! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

para tuloy ang bilis bilis lang ng lahat and 4 days are now reduced to 2 1/2 hours more. It is at these moments that I wish that I had a time machine so that I can reset back to dec 23 so that I can rest more/watch more movies/eat even more and tunganga to the highest LEVEL! buth then I realize that if I keep resetting I get stuck and just move in circles...and there are certainly limits on the number of movies one can watch until boredom sets in...oooh dumee-deep ang theme. kaya kelangan ng mag move on at pumasok for the next 3 days.

slash pag naiisip ko ang mga balak kong pundarin in the thought bubbles my mind creates I am now determined to go go go and work work work. the past 4 days have been fun and filled with crazy realizations that at the moment escape me but I'm sure will resurface when I blog another time.

I guess one lesson I think is important this holiday season is to learn to be content....with whatever you have at the moment...like 4 day vacations when your shore friends have duties every 3 days,  paulit ulit na pagkain (like 4 days ng bbq) but nevertheless has calories that will take years to burn, and many more. Sabi nga sa some cheezy song, if you count the blessings you have surely makakatulog ka na sa dami nila.but I think...Neuroanatomy by Carpenter will trump counting your blessings as a way to make you sleepy! AHAHAHAHA.

So tomorrow,I will be going back to work and have what-I-did-during-Christmas-break conversations with people at the mothership and I hope that this last week of the year will continue to bring laughter and...ANO! more laughter! AHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Happy Christmas!

Pasko na ulit. parang ang bilis bilis lang ng 1 year! IKR! and in 2 weeks...it's a start of another year...FOR MORE! ahaha


anyway...at the moment I have nothing to write. just had the need to document this holiday as it is one of those rare times that I am able to savor it dahil naka-contribute na ako...sa pagreregalo! AHAHAHAHAHAHA. for the first time. hahahahahahaha.

so i spent noche buena with my family and facebook where I could greet everyone without waiting for that sent message notification on my phone in our house with no sun signal. AHAHAHA. masaya na talaga ang Pasko ngayong taon ngunit dysmenorrhea couldn't have come at a better time...IKR! so hindi ako masyado nakakain nung gabi in pure cramping mode!

therefore...today ako bumawi at nilantakan ng bonggang bongga ang pagkain...habang nanonood ng mga cheezy movies sa tv! haaaaaaaay...this is the life! pagbukas mo ng ref, feeling mo pinakamayaman ka kasi andoon yung mga hindi niyo pa naubos na pagkain nung noche buena! AHAHAHAHAHAHA. looooove it! pagtingin mo sa phone mo maraming messages ng mga taong bumabati sa yo...at narealize ko na talagang love na love tayo ng Diyos...kasi kahit Siya ang may birthday....feeling mo birthday mo na din kasi madaming handa at regalo at warm fuzzy feelings of happiness and thankfulness. awwww. *Christmas spirit kicking in!*

so today I thank the Lord for all He has done for me...and all that He has planned. Happy Happy Birthday po! This year has been very memorable and I hope that if ever I get Alzheimer's one day, this year would be part of those memories na hindi mabubura. hahahahahaha.

happy HTGOF day!

dapat ay napublish ito nung birthday ni HTGOF. pero dahil late na ako nakauwi in puuuuure last minute Christmas shopping slash facetime with Ate Enjh and Ate Smoketh...therefore. haha.

here's my blog post dedicated to my evil crazy twin/triplet who I believe is living my life at a different dimension in time...the other third dimension would be Ate Smoketh of course. AHAHAHAHAHA. i somehow believe that probably in a previous lifetime (if totoo man ang mga past lives) ay laging nagkakasalubong ang ating paths na tatlo before.ooooh. so senti. suka all over. buth anyway, since I'm tired post shopping and I am too tamad to write. Here's to more years of craziness, AHAHAHAHAHAHAs, activating altas, facetimes and SAO. Happy Birthday HTGOF! heeheeheeeheee.

TUGSH...TUGSH...TUGSH....TUGSH.....sige pa!

it is two weeks before Christmas and now is the time to PARTYYYYYYYYYY. 3 araw na akong umuuwi ng late kalalayas for life after 5. Last Monday, we had HTGOF's last FT (aka facetime) before residency and SAFM's last FT before May 1 ulit edition...where we saw that the shrine is being discovered by aliens who invade SMF1&2 and thereby relegated us to staying at this table we shall now call...SMF4!!!!! and for more....since Smoketh is sicketh and SAFM is cleaning up his latak in the callroom, we saw this little kid alien playing with action figures of dinosaurs and horses and farm animals playing in SMF2...while HTGOF and I were frantically facebooking while looking at the wonders of breakfast makers in Google.

then yesterday, it was our class' party- before- residency-slash yearbook- launch slash party- while- marami- pang- makaka-attend! and i must say that it's a glimpse of what's in store for us in the future. all the while from my trip home from the mothership to the shore I was thinking of how the party would look like...and then pagdating ko sa venue I was greeted by silence. OMG. baka nasa maling lugar ako! then I ask Kuya Guard kung asa loob na ba ang mga tao and he goes...opo! at pagbukas ko ng door, nakita ko ang catering setup with one classmate...and silence. so feeling ko pinakamaaga ako...buth!!!! pag kakuha ko ng food at pagsilip sa adjacent room...there they were! around 20 plus of my batchmates...eating....IN SILENCE!!!!!! WTH! KALOLAHAN extreme edition. if only I had a video camera to show us in 30 years kung paano na ang magiging next get togethers namin as a batch. for the program napanood namin ang videos namin nung medschool where we collectively gasped and applauded everytime we saw someone who gained a lot of weight. let's just say that while watching the video...na 24 mins...parang 22 mins kaming nag-ga-gasp! AHAHAHAHAHAHA. then we had games where charades : sinong bading edition commenced! Panalo magpahula ng person na nasa loob ng cabinet! then for more katandaan....mga 9pm nagsimula ng umuwi ang mga tao dahil marami pang gagawin....in LIFE! AHAHAHAHA. nakakamiss ang batchmates. sana talaga pwede nalang silang gawing action figures. para pagnagfacetime...pwede ring ilabas sa shrine. AHAHAHA.

then tonight, I attended our futuristic company christmas party. where in fairness to me...nafeel ko naman ang kabataan ko. AHAHAHAHA. dahil ang mga tao ay gumagalang naka-foil, body paint at ang pinakawinner... may electric fan sa dibdib na umiilaw! AHAHAHAHAHA. and after some time felt really tired so uwian portion na rin. sana lang nanalo ako sa raffle....hahahaha. anyway...sa saturday meron pang party!!!!! for more! pagod na akong mag tugsh tugsh tugsh. AHAHAHAHA.

anyway...tomorrow is the start of Simbang Gabi....the start of Residency for HTGOF, Da-DUH, CTB, Road Rage, Autumn, and the rest of the fair new IM kids... and the start of nothingness for SAFM! Good luck and Congrats to all of you! SAFM have fun swimming...you are now out of the shore! HTGOF...nagsisimula ka na sa lake...with the swans and the putik! Just keep floating! :)

shopping, reunions, sayings, and therapy....

at dahil napressure ako sa aking mga ka-blog (speaking of we must think of a name na mas matino!) haha ay nagsusulat ako ngayon despite the general feeling of malaise. thank god I think pagaling na ang sakit-an portion. i firmly believe in the saying na...pag may nahawa kang iba...ibig sabihin, pagaling ka na. and speaking of, nanay ko na ang nilalagnat ngayon. ahoooooooooy.

spent the last week with a mask plastered on my face because of  bacterial URTI.chaka talaga magkasakit. minsan iniisip ko ano kaya kung ginawa ni God na bawal magkasakit ang tao? haha. therefore wala kaming trabaho. hahahaha. anyway, like any other doctor na nagkakasakit, syempre may I defer all possible meds until maging pinaka-febrile at pinaka nanghihina level na! at after mga 4 days of not taking anything, I finally decided to take antibiotics dahil...TRP na at gusto ko manood. AHAHAHAHA

hay, in fairness, this week madaming nangyari. at nagkatotoo naman ang wish ko for MORE happy moments. haha.moving on... first time ko maging spectator sa TRP after 5 years and I must say, masaya palang manood...pero nakakamiss din palang magperform (I can hear you now HTGOF telling me..."e bakit ka ba kasi ndi sumayaw? aber? *taps foot*). and what's even better is of course sitting there and reminiscing about your own TRP moments (which is one of the signs of impending katandaan) and making okray performances that make absolutely no sense. IKR! like yung may pusong shiny na napupunit. AHAHAHHAHAAHA.  and then! for more pathognomonic signs na graduate ka na talaga sa TRP ay kebs na kung sino ang manalo sa chorale competition dahil kelangan na kumain...sa isang kainan na hindi Mcdo or Jollibee.  Congrats classmates, we have successfully moved on to the other side! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. 

speaking of the other side...mahirap palang gumastos para sa sarili mo, if sa iyo galing ang pera. and for more sayings naalala ko ang kasabihang...mas masarap ang chichiria pag humihingi ka sa iba! AHAHAHAHAHA. got some of my month's salary this week and despite the craziness surrounding that day masasabi kong...nakakatuwa palang magtrabaho ng may nakikitang returns. hindi kasi ako sanay. AHAHAHAHA. buth I think my best sweldo related story was when I gave some of it to my dear Lola at pinagmalaki niya sa lahat ng tao sa bahay niya na binigyan ko daw siya ng pera. AHAHAHAHAHAHA. 

then despite my panghihina my mom and I went  yesterday to the bazaar that will trump all bazaars dahil sale sa lahat ng araw, where else but Divi-freakin-soria! kung saan feeling mo mayaman lahat ng tao dahil bumibili sila left and right buth mare-realize mo na hirap din sila dahil kahit P10 na mirrors ay tatawaran ng..."pwedeng P5 nalang? 2 naman ang bibilhin ko eh!" AHAHAHAHAHHAHA. at nakita ko ang mga ibang items na nakita ko sa St. James at half the price off! AHAHAHA. HTGOF, isipin mo nalang na nakatulong ka sa maraming tao nung bumili ka nung fan at nung flashlight at nung....sige titigil na ako. AHAHAHA. then at around 6 pm my mother and I were so tired and when we got home we realized...waaaaaaaaah. hindi pa namin nabilhan ang ALL. BOOOOOOOO.

then when I get home Dr. Tita is telling me they have a Christmas party and that we have to make a dance. *taps foot while crossing hands over chest*  like WTH? buti nalang pumayag siyang titingnan ko nalang ang mga dance moves niya at sasabihin ko kung chaka or hindi. hahaha. so natapos namin ang sayaw nila ng mga...1 am. hahaha. it was a fun filled week despite the sicketh-ness. so sana next week wala na ang sickness pero happy pa rin.
