Let me start again...

Today I beamed myself out of the mothership into the sea. Feeling ko April 30 ulit at bukas ay May 1 na. Bittersweet to leave a source of sweldo and friends I got to know up there but at the same time really excited to swim back.

I spent my last day cherishing the things I will miss about the mothership...paperless charts, aircon, nice nurses, 8-5 workdays...and also celebrated the end of the things I rant about which I will no longer talk about AHAHAHAHA. overall, I had a generally good experience in the mothership...surprisingly even if moonlighting is all about the money...there are some things you do learn from it. AHOOOY. I'd like to think that this experience has given me some edge when I go back and face the sharks, crabs and sea creatures I will encounter on the way back.

and so I am back to swimming again. I'm quite excited....for I am....coming hooooooome!!!!!!

sabi nga ni April Rhodes sa Glee...


Maybe there's a chance for me to go back
Now that I have some direction
It would sure be nice to back home
Where there's love and affection
And just maybe I can convince time to slow up
Giving me enough time in my life to grow up
Time be my friend...

babae sa floodwater...

since the start of the rainy season my friends and I had this weird prayer...dear Lord let it rain so hard from 5 am -12 nn...para benign. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. and for the past few days and weeks that it has been raining napapansin namin na ang ulan ay dumarating lamang ng... 5 pm, nawawala ng madaling araw hanggang mga 10 am...babalik ng alas onse ng umaga at didire-direcho na till uwian. making it extremely hard to go home with all the rain and the kabahaan of it all. specially in Manila which transforms into one big primordial soup after mga 4 hours of nonstop rain! AHAHAHA.

and so today, it rained like there was no tomorrow the entire day since 11 am. and come 5 pm ang kalakhang Maynila ay isa nang dagat ng basura. While I was aboard the jeep all I could think of was...LEPTO! LEPTO! F#*#&@ LEPTO na namaaaan.  I tried to get home but I had to go around all the way to Taft from Makati dahil puro tubig lang ang nakikita ko. and for more...ang tubig ay halos kalevel na ng step pagpasakay ka na ng jeep! hahaha.

so after 5 palipat lipat ng jeep dahil lahat ng mga jeep nagtuturn around because of the baha....I met my dad who fetched me in the somewhat higher area near our house which is now like an island! ahoooy. pagkakita ko sa dad ko dinalhan niya ako ng calf length BOTA/rubber boots for the baha dahil sobrang lalim na nga sa mga streets. so there I go so confident na there will be no need for Doxycycline 200 mg/tab single dose until dumating kami sa isang corner where...hanggang tuhod ang baha! AHAHAHAHAHAHA. greeaaaaaaat. and for more pumasok din therefore sa loob ng bota ang tubig na black na may lumlutang na....IPIS dun sa may gilid! EEEEEEEWWWWW. 

at pagdating pa sa may tapat ng bahay...baha na talaga. ahahahahaha. shoooooot. flashback Ondoy level...mini edition!!!!! sana mamaya hindi na ako magising na lumulutang ang kama ko! AHAHAHAHAHAHA.

IKR GM?

after watching some commercial na may I know right sa dialogue...

Mom: Anak, ano ba ang  ibig sabihin ng I know right?
The Daw: uuuhhhh....aaaah.....expression yon. ibig sabihin...gets ko sinasabi mo...parang I know what you mean.
Mom: E bakit hindi nalang sabihing I know what you mean or gets mo? Ang labo...parang sinasabi mo may tama ako!
The Daw: huh? ang layo kaya nun. basta...mas maiksi yun. ginagawa pa ngang IKR yun ano!
Mom: Eh...bakit hindi nalang GM? mas maiksi kaya yon!!!!!!
The Daw: anong GM?
Mom: Ano berrrr....e di.... GETS MO?


AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Constant Change...AHAHAHAHA.

was waiting for Ms. Tingle and HTGOF at the nearest 7 eleven from the Mothership when I suddenly zoned out of reading Pocket Medicine to the incessant chatter coming from the table at the back...

Seller ng medical supplies #1: Doktora siguro ang busy busy nyo talaga
Doktora: Hay sinabi mo pa, grabe kmi nung asawa ko, parehas kaming doktor hindi kami makapagbakasyon kasama ng mga bata nung summer. Imagine mo, pumunta kami sa States, 10 days lang. tapos yung planned din naming Europe parang 1 week lang.....blah blah...buy medical supplies, blaaaaah.

AHOOOOOOOY. Ranting Consultant edition. ganoon pala pagka Consultant na at meron kang 5 clinic sa iba't ibang hospital sa Metro Manila. (and for more, I got this info all while listening to them talking as if sila lang ang tao sa buong 7-11)...

I then suddenly had a flashback of all the times we were ranting in medschool. after medschool.internship. before boards. after boards. right now. pati yung aking resident friends, fellow friends. ranting.venting. everyday. if there were whinification notifications in life like in Facebook, siguro kami more than 100 whinifications every day.

I guess it's true. whatever stage you are in life, ranting... like change...is constant. it just varies in kind...but ultimately...some things are just never enough. siguro kung ang pagrarant ay nacoconvert sa pera, mayaman na ang mga tao! AHAHAHAHA. buti nalang in some instances...ranting can be convertible to happiness AHAHAHAHA.


...pero ang ultimate question in my head...ay bakit sila sa 7-1l of all places nagbebentahan ng medical supplies? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

ps: safm....hulaan mo kung sinong artist kumanta ng name ng song sa title! and no it is not...ted ito. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
