Well, I am glad I have reconnected with a former high school classmate who apparently is doing a fellowship study in Japan. This guy amazes me a lot, even when we were in high school. It all started when I asked him to be featured as an emulating person in the "Personality Section" of my self-moderated Facebook group wall called "Passi City Bulletin" which I dedicatedly presented to my fellow

Yeah, the year 2011 had already passed and it is just noteworthy to look back and recall what good and bad things that had happened last year. Of course, life would not be balanced if all the events last year were not a mixture or blend of the good and the bad, happy or sad. Well, on the good side I can still remember when I got accepted for a job at the famous nursing home network in the whole

Yeah, as the days had been passing by I was working so hard and never realized that the day of my trip back to Mexico is near. I was so inspired to get back there to see more beautiful places and improve my Spanish. It was a big lift for me to travel all the time. I really liked it! One of the things that really inspired me is to travel to some beautiful places. I have been traveling half way

Well, I have this problem every now and then. And I've been brushing it off sometimes because I am just plain lazy to do it not realizing that the problem has already disrupted my peace of mind. In short I am procrastinating because I was just tired from work to do it. My car tires especially the one on the front left was been flat on and off and I have been putting air at least every two weeks

Along with the case of burglary last year after I came back from my European vacation, the toll of the problems it gave me was surmounting. It was a stressful situation in my entire existence. I never succumb to such agony and unpredictable stress. It was horrible! Yeah, I mean I never knew the guy living above my apartment had trespassed my privacy until I found out he cashed one of my check

My last day in Mexico City was so loaded with adventures and challenges. It was a day well spent seeing the beautiful places around the city like the Palacio Nacional and the Azteca Templo Mayor. We also spent a lot of walking on the streets of Mexico which even added to the soreness of my thigh. We woke late already that day because I was still so beat up from the previous days walking and

This is my first trip to Mexico City and I met this very awesome tour guide who brought me to a lot of beautiful places like the Zocalo, the Palacio Nacional, Guadalupe Church, Metropolitan Cathedral, Palacio Postal, Plaza Tosca, Bellas Artes, TransLatino Tower, Alameda Park, Templo Mayor, National Anthropological Museum, Puebla, Teotihuacan, etc. The one that I cannot forget about this trip was

Right after our long drive from Puebla, in order for me to see more places my driver brought me at the Anthropological Museum to see some very nice exhibits dated from the ancient times to present. Despite how tired we are we still managed to see the huge place and our fatigue was eased away as we perused some good and beautiful exhibits. We started seeing the evolution part, how man evolved

We started our day late because we were so tired the previous day roaming around the streets of Zocalo and toured the whole city through the Turibus and the toll of the long hours of walking and sitting the bus was already givng us a payback. It was a very exhausted night but we have to start waking up because we have a very long day ahead. Today we planned to go to the Basilica of the Guadalupe

After roaming the crowded streets of MexicoCity on this holiday season we decided to wind up outside the city where I cn probably explore the ruins of the Aztec civilizations famous in the ancient times in the valleys of the city called Teotihuacan. We were equipped with a two day worth of clothes because we decided to spend the night at Puebla after our trip at Teotihuacan. The drive there was

I was enjoying Mexico City to the hilt when my tour guide suggested to have a day at the nearby state called Puebla. I mean he hinted that after we had a very tiring walk at the Zocalo going back from the Turibus ride. I told him why not. There's nothing I will lose if I tried to do that but I am still wary a little bit because of the warnings I've got from my friends when I left Los Angeles.

The next day, Monday, December 19, 2011, my first day in Mexico City after I've arrived last night my tour guide wanted to bring me back to Zocalo to see how it's going there during the daytime. He told me that it will be totally different from my experiences from last night. We woke up around 0900H and started to prepare for the long day. This will be my first day in the city I never know of.

I was picked up at the airport by a very goodlooking tourist guide and the chemistry between us had sparked the moment we introduced ourselves. It was just like an impulsive nature that he hugged me upon seeing me and he told me how cute I am. I was blushing when he told me that. I can also sensed his excitement judging with the sparkle of her us and the jittery introduction he made when he

December 18, 2011, it was an early cold-dark Sunday at 0615H I got out from work at the facility and headed home to ready for my early flight to San Francisco via a local United Airlines flight. I got home and hurried to check my luggage if everything I needed to bring were inside it and then I changed from my scrub to a jeans, T-shirt, and sneakers garb and then went to knock at my landlord's

Tomorrow I will be leaving to Mexico and I am very excited to see what Mexico has to offer. I cannot wait for it to happen. Yay! I am so grateful that I know this guy from a friend who is willing to meet me in Mexico and show me some nice places there. It would be convenient for me because he can also speak Spanish and I don't have to worry looking silly talking to a local in my broken Spanish.

Hello there guys! I am happy to be back again blogging here. I am quite a bit of a bind lately but I know I have to keep blogging to keep myself abreast with my online journal. And here I am now doing one more article just for my avid reader to check. Lately, at work everything was very tense. We've just transitioned from the old paper and pencil charting and documentation to a more

Yeah, I'm back again for my blogging. It seems that the spirit of the Holidays can be perceived and sniffed everywhere. The whole town is already bursting with the anticipation for the coming Holidays. On my way to work I can see some residential houses adorned with glittering and colorful lights around their houses and yards. Decorations were been adorned everywhere. It seems that the

Well, it's that time of the year again that we must celebrate how thankful we are of our blessings each day. It's been a part of an American tradition brought by our founding fathers of this so called New World as a peace offering for the natives who once inhabit this great land. To some, they call it "Turkey Day" because they get to prepare turkey to be shared by the whole family on the table

Hello peeps. When you've gotten to a situation to do traveling please get to involve yourself with it and take the opportunity at hand because it only happens once and you will not regret it at the end. Well, my travels had made me aware of myself and my surroundings. I get to observe what the people are commonly doing in certain places. I have to know about the language they're speaking and

It was so poignant leaving Paris with a pouring rain. It seems that the Parisian skies was crying for my departure and never wanted me to leave. My friend Doreen had been patient in accompanying me to the airport and waiting for me to go inside the the boarding area. I hate the surprise of goodbyes and I cannot stop myself yielding to melancholy. The trip from Paris to Washington was very long

It seems that I was fortunate enough to have travel halfway the globe and discovered how well the people in that part of the world live life in a day to day basis. It was an opportunity I can never forget. In this vacation I went to four different countries and several unforgettable and beautiful cities I can still picture in my mind. Mingling with the different cultures of each country is a tad

Well, it was a cold Wednesday morning in Paris and it's 0500H. I woke up early because we will be checking out from the hotel at 0600H and then Doreen will drop me off at CDG airport. It was still dark at 0600H in Paris and the morning misty fog are still apparent. My feelings of leaving Paris was kind of mixed from being numb to excited. I just couldn't explain and contain what I felt and it

It was a chilly Tuesday morning in Paris and we woke up early at 0500 for our spur-of-the-moment decision to go to Brussels, Belgium. I am way too much excited because I've heard a lot about this place and saw soe pictures online. Brussels is almost an hour-and-a-half train ride from Paris going east. And our decision to go there is an apt opportunity because we have a tad whole day to enjoy the

Well, it was a bright Monday morning, I woke up and checked my luggages. I can't believe my trip is finally over.I have to leave Aix-en-Provence with a heavy heart because for all the times I've been here in Europe I only spent little time to re-explore the place. I felt guilty. The day of my departure is nearing and days away, actually a sort of two days, but I'm still not imbued to go home. It

When we arrived at Aix-en-Provence at 2300H yesterday we were so tired and we retired right away. We were so beat up and exhausted from the long trip as well as tired from roaming around Italy. My cold was worse. I just won't stop sneezing and my phlegm started to accumulate and clogged my throat. My voice became hoarse and I was running a low-grade-fever. This may be was my comeuppance for

We woke up early the next day on a bright Saturday morning at 0500H packing our things up because we will be going back to France. Our sojourn in Italy was been over and we ran out of time because I will be leaving on Wednesday back to the United States. We even missed going to Sienna and Gemingniano because our times could not allow us anymore plus our bodies have succumb to fatigue and stress

We woke up early in the morning on a cold Saturday morning in Florence. We took our early morning breakfast consisting of croissant, warm coffee, orange juice, yogurt, and jams. Then headed out to the Academia Gallery and lined up for the queue to watch the Statue of David inside. I was so excited to see it because of the superlatives I've read from the online Wikipedia. We paid 11 euros for the

The next day on a cold Saturday morning we woke up to make this day the most busy day of all our travels. Our agenda for the day was to see David and the Uffizi Museum for the last time. Then go back to our hotel and leave Florence and go to Pisa, Italy to just see the leaning tower then go home to Genova after that. We took our early morning shower despite the cold weather and then went down

Florence is a very captivating city. The wonders of the architectural buildings dated back in the 1400's was very fascinating. Adorned with myriad of sculptural designs on top of it's spires creates an architectural wonder during that era. At first glance of the city of Florence, I felt so at home. The people are very gorgeous and appears very friendly. It creates an extension to the city and

When we got to Florence the previous day we were so tired because we were been on a whole day train ride patiently transferring form one station to another station to get to the city because of the flooding that happened in Spieza. Well, at least we are here now in Florence. We woke up this cold morning in this Tuscanian city, tired and very exhausted from yesterday's trip but eventually we got

The storm had passed Genova and the sun barely came out of the still gloomy skies. We woke up early on this cold Wednesday morning thinking to halt our trip to Tuscany. But my friend Doreen just doesn't want to waste one of our day and she wants to gamble our fate by continuing our iterinary rather than staying in Genova. Our host also had told us that it was flooding in Spieza and all the

We left Genova at 0800H and it was drizzling and the chilly winds emanates in the atmosphere.

The next day we decided to go to Torino, Italy located in the northeastern part of the country near the Alps. The night before Doreen checked the times of the trains going there and also the weather on that day. The forecast said it will rain there so we brought a folding umbrella just in case. It was very chilly on this early Monday morning and the rush of of the traffic in Genova is very

After a day of our arrival in Genova, Italy we started roaming the city together with Doreen's cousin Maricelle along with her husband and daughter. It was a sunny and windy Sunday morning and the couple were both off from their respective jobs. It was an apt time to to show us around Genova. Genova is located in the northern part of Italy and is famous for it's huge port. The portside appears

Me and Doreen woke up late on this lazy Saturday morning because my dear friend was very tired from doing household chores yesterday at Shelley's. We are supposed to be leaving early morning todAy but it seems that Doreen was still in pain from that biopsy done on her last Monday. She says that the pain was intermittently numbing and aching but when she takes the Ibuprofen it seems that it was

The day started late because I woke up late on this average Friday morning. Rosalie came early to help Doreen clean Shelley's house. I was stuck at Doreen's apartment doing nothing so I decided to cook both of them lunch. I sauteed some chicken with garlic and onion and boiled it until it becomes tender then added some potatoes and carrots and topped it with cabbage. I also heated the chicken

Today, we woke up late because we don't have any agenda except that Doreen has a rendezvous with her personal physician at 1100H. This Thursday morning was kinda gloomy and nippy. There were guys busy hauling some shattered ceramic tiles from Shelley's kitchen. This is the day that the construction will start. We changed immediately to catch for the bus outside the street but we missed it with

Well, I woke up quite shaken on a Wednesday morning in Aix after a days rest from my very hectic vacation in Paris and Barcelona. Finally I was in Aix resting up my sore feet for a day and picked up my emails as well as responded to them. I also posted some few blogs in my blog site which I did not entered since June and also posted some pics of my adventures in Facebook. Got the time to update

It was a chilly and quite foggy Monday morning in Paris when I woke up at Arno's apartment readying myself for the trip back to Aix-en-Provence. I missed this place a lot, the seat of my memories during my vacation last year missing the marketplace and the Centerville as well as the gorgeous people it has. Can't wait to see it again! Arno drove us at the train station and helped us pushing with

My last day in Barcelona was started by a gloomy Sunday morning. I woke up with my two legs extremely sore at the calf and feet and tense from too much walking from yesterday's sightseeing and with a slight hang-over from too much drinking of the ever palatable yet addicting sangria just made with a Barcelona twist. I got up of my soft hotel bed and filled the tub with warm water thinking that

As I'm trying to get rid of my jet lag for three days I am ready for another adventure. After roaming Paris for three days we finally decided to leave Paris and have a bright sunny weekend in Barcelona. My friend's friend Arno had arranged for this trip keeping in mind that my trip will be full of adventure and fun. Thanks Arno for this kind gesture. And your hospitality is over the top for a

Hi guys! It's been a long time that I haven't blog here. My apologies for that. No offense but I am always busy with work juggling two jobs at a time. I don't know why I am killing myself. May be I was just saving for the rainy days. Hope you'll understand. But anyway, I am back here and I am on my three weeks sojourn to Europe. So I hope I can have so much time blogging off my adventures here

Hi guys! I missed out so much lately and I apologize for that. I know I was lagging with my blogging hobby and I am guilty as charge. LOL. It's been a long time now that I haven't blog and I think the last blog I have posted was been on May 10. May 10 was the birthday of my father and my little sis. I missed my dad a lot. He died in 1997 due to End Stage Renal Disease. But I still remember the

I believe that whatever I've been doing lately is what God had intended me to and it's up for me to accept it and make the most out of it so that He will be proud of me. I have a lot of ups and downs last year and whatever I've experienced during that time had taught me greatly to be thankful in whatever God had provided me and not to complain. Yes, I can accept whatever He had given me and it's

I've been bummed up lately with the idea of working with adult people rather than my usual comfort zone which is pediatric nursing. Doing geriatric care is much much more different than what I used to do. Since I gave up my long time specialty a year ago I still can't shake off the hardships I've been through just to find another replacement job despite I am still confident doing my daytime

I am off today but it seems that I am not moving. I've been procrastinating and not doing anything. I am inert and nonproductive. Plus the fact that I've been nursing an inflammed left Achilles tendon. Yesterday, I went home from my clinicals limping badly because of my bad arthritis. I can feel some lump at the back of my heel and it hurts a lot. I've been taking the Naproxen tablets I've got

It was my off yesterday so I have a long time to rest. This morning I woke up so refresh and ready to start my beautiful Sunday morning right. Today is my weekend clinical day and I can't wait to see my Sunday students. This group is only comprise of seven girls of various ethnicity. Two Filipinos, two Fil-Ams, one Nigerian, one Latina, and one African-American. I like this small group because

Ever since I got home from my month long vacation my blogging was been on halt for the longest time. The stress of my work had given a toll on me and I don't have enough time to do it because I'm always tired every time I go home. It seems that I'm always rushing everyday trying to just make the time go forward faster. I always feel that I am in a box and was been turning around there until the

One day before I culminate my one-month long vacation, I felt so bored at home in Malate. I was itching to have some more escapades to add more pictures on my wide array of online albums and so be it. I just wanted to top my vacation with a stroll in Tagaytay, Batangas. It's a cunning idea to hire a taxi back and forth to just see the famous volcano at the center of the lake amidst my concern

It seems that my vacation will commence in a few days and as I got near to the end of it my stay here in Manila gets more boring because I have no places to go and see anymore. Nah.... I'll take that back. Actually, there's still a lot to see and explore but it's just boring to have gone there by myself without even having somebody to talk to or yack at. I know I am always used to being alone

As I was winding up amidst my busy transactions in the Philippines closing up my loans from the bank for the two condos I am buying I still have time to read paperbacks which is one of my notorious hobby. When I went to Hongkong to visit my big sister, she gave me this true story paperback as a present and as a peace offering. Well, she knows my weakness and I humbly accepted the book although I

Well, buying a property in the Philippines had given me a lot nagging headache. I never know there were loopholes and empty promises within it. I was duped totally but I can't go back now and just left all the money I have invested. I have to continue and think of the best way out of it. I started to write this blog to warn potential alien or foreign buyer's in buying any kind of property in the

As I was standing idly at the corner of the LRT train from Quirino station to Doroteo Jose station the hapless scenery of Manila was been laid out in front of me like a cheap magazine which brought some flashes of memories when I was still living in this busy capital after I graduated college. Seeing the vast sceneries of adjacent and neighboring tall buildings and commercial establishments

It was a very hot Saturday of February 26 when we (me and my little sister) left Manila for Hongkong at 2 pm. The airport was very crowded and the hustle-and-bustle of the people inside was very dizzying to my head. Despite of this, I am more eager to leave the traffic and pollution of Manila and see what's Hongkong has to offer to us. They say Hongkong is a very progressive country famous for

It was an impulsive decision to take a day and spent a very relaxing visit to the countryside especially in the remote yet beautiful place like Bohol. I was probably bored of the busy street of Manila so I decided to purchase three tickets to Bohol thinking to bring some of my close friends to make the adventure more fun. So they say, "The more the merrier." Leaving Manila on a wee hours of a

I am glad that I made time to get away from the stress of my job in Los Angeles and decided to go back to my mother country to at lest unwind for some quiet times with friends, families, and relatives. At least the feeling of nostalgia was been quenched to some degree and not been provked more to cause me any emotional breakdown. It's really nice to have taken this long break to at least escape

I flew to Singapore on the weekend of Feb 19-21, just to escape the hurried and congested environment of Metro Manila after several days of embarking my one month vacation to the Philippines. I did not expect that Singapore will touch my heart and gives me some oohs and aahs that will make my stay memorable and unforgetful. I was actually in love with the city and it's bustly architectural

Well, as the new year gradually adds up it's days we tend to make promises to ourselves to change our unhealthy habits from the past years. This seems to have inspired me to slow down my age despite of the staggering stresses in my life previously. Yes, it couldn't be denied that as the years progresses I also progressed my age eventually although there are some practices that tend to adapt

Hey guys, welcome back to my blog. Sorry for the long absence but I'm here. I was just so tied up with all my hurried responsibilities in school and at work. It's so overwhelming sometimes but it's fun. Yes, 2011 had just got in and this is my first blog for this coming year. It's quite sad to say that last year was not that promising to me either but oh well time has to go on and I must learn

It's really hard to celebrate Christmas by myself alone. I have no immediate families around to share the spirit of the holidays. Yet for me I made an outlet to celebrate it more memorable and a little bit festive. And I am proud of myself. It was my 10th year of celebrating Christmas by myself since I moved here in Los Angeles from McAllen, TX. I still remember my happy Christmas celebration

During the holidays people are just busy preparing what to decorate. In order to be festive, people always make sure that they always focus on the essence of the

Well, since I resigned from my hospital job my life was been turned upside down. I don't know if my impulsive behavior to resign last April was been a blessing or a curse. Ever since I gave up my hospital job it's really not easy to find another one maybe because of the pinch of the recession. It was been a big struggle for me but I was still lucky to keep my teaching job. At least it had helped

Time flies, it's already December again. Seems that the nippy morning breeze of Autumn had already set in. I can feel the joyous spirit of the holidays every where. As I drive home on a busy freeway from my clinical class at Long Beach Care Center, I can hear the blaring of the early Christmas carols from the local radio. Christmas spirits were already imminent from the malls and the streets.

So far, my life lately was been at a struggle and full of drama. I never imagined I can passed through it but so far life is fair. I wish I could still up the forte to a more satisfying level. Well, Thanksgiving Day is just around the corner. Time for me to count my blessings. This year was kind of a lonely one for me despite of the massive problems and worries that had happened these past

Here's another song that really pierced my heart every time I am down. It really inspired me a lot for not giving up and losing hope despite of the many trials and adversities I had gone through in my life. Now I am on my emote mode again.

It is a very good song telling me to start all over again despite of the adversities I've meet in my journey. I've embedded the video here and written the meaningful lyrics underneath it. I was so immersed with the song not knowing that my tears were already trickling down my face. I was so

Malupit sa akin ang tadhana pero malakas pa rin ang aking pananaw sa buhay. Alam ko naman na hindi ako pababayaan ng Panginoon. Alam ko naman na ang mga dagok sa aking buhay ay mga pagsubok lamang sa akin ng ating Poon. Wala na akong magawa pa dahil nangyari na ang mga mapapait na mga karanasan sa aking buhay. Siguro dahil din ito sa aking kapabayaan o siguro sa aking pagtitiwala sa mga tao sa

I woke up this morning with the sun gleefully greeting me from the four corners of my bedroom. It's rays were peeking through the white chiffon curtains from the window and my room was illuminated brightly by it. It was a promising morning I had woke up! After the good news yesterday, my life had mysteriously shifted 200% from the dark and downhill moments I've spent during my orientation days

Have you experienced being bullied in the job? How did it feel to you? Was it embarrassing or hurtful? Did you ever thought of ending your life because you can't take the embarassment anymore? Yes, I was the victim of it and I almost gave up. It never come to my remote mind that bullying in the job also exist with grown ups. I thought that bullying only occurs in school with the little and high

I was so happy today. The Lord had given me a sign and answered my intense prayers. And I extremely felt I was fortunate for that. I went ape over that good news! I was called for an interview today for a job that I had applied online over the weekend. It was in the Pediatric ICU which is actually my forte and my credentials was been saying that I am very qualified for it. They had no questions

It seems that I am still numb about what had happened last week. I just want to burry it in my remote mind but still it keeps flashing back in my forebrain. Life is not that easy for me nowadays. I am not complaining but I am greatly affected by how life was been treating me lately. I know there is a reason why it happened but I still couldn't fathom it. I am really confused and disoriented

It's a muggy Sunday today and I showed up in my clinical class very eager to work despite of the things that had happened last Friday. I'm still enormously numbed about what had happened this weekend and I just think of it as a scary nightmare that keeps haunting me around wherever I go. I woke up very early this morning despite of the fall back that had happened at 2 am. The time had fell back

Well, it seems that I have faced the most lowest point in my life. A dilemma I couldn't forget or shall I say a big fiasco I was in. But nah.... I think this is just another trial that God had given me to test my faith and my self as to how I handle stress in a healthy way. Yes.... lately my life was in a low down for weeks. I had struggled a lot in my orientation at the hospital. My preceptor

October 24, 2010: Well, this year was full of ups and downs. And my life was been in a roller coaster ride. I don't know where to stand now. My orientation at my new job is also in hot waters and I also don't know where I stand right now. If worse comes to worse I would probably take the monkey off my shoulder and find another stress free job. But I'm still in high hopes that everything will be

I always got a side comment from other people that I project a friendly personality and it touched and affected me a lot. I mean I know I am cool and I am that way. I didn't know that I am a nice person. All I know is that I treat a person as a human being who has feelings and that's it. I don't intend to harm them but treat them with respect, love, care, and understanding. That's the ultimate

Yeah, I've been voicing out my heartaches and frustrations during my ER orientation on this blogsite yet all things that had happened to me these days had some full effect on who and what I am now. It's really hard sometimes for me to fathom why people are so mean at me. It really surprised me a lot to know that there were people who always wished only my failures and not my success. I didn't

I was off for four days lately and I was been expecting some family to visit from Texas. One of my second cousin whom I have never seen for fifteen years will be here together with her family. They were long driving across the west coast from the Lone Star State. I got out of my work last Monday morning very very tired and was planning to rest for the whole day but I was expecting my second

Well, it's been like very bland nowadays. I have nothing to do except for reading a lot of papers. Just trying to be knowledgeable of the various cases being seen in ER. Now that I am trying to be (trying to make a quote and quote sign in the air) an ER adult nurse I am trying to familiarize myself with the adult cases being encountered in ER. I know it will take time for me to familiarize with

In our everyday life we always see to it that we always set out for our goals. We have to aim for it and we have to conquer it no matter what the odds are. We have to always go the distance to attain and realize it. I was very captivated and fascinated with this song from a Disney movie Hercules and the lyrics kept reverberating at the back of my mind all the time. When always faced with

Well, I came back here with the same story about my orientation in ER which was apparently extended because I was assessed that I needed more exposure to adult ER by my primary preceptor. I already told you about my current experiences with my primary preceptor and lately it's been going downhill not that really to a point that she is killing me but to a point that she broke me into tears.

Wow..... I can't believe it. The previous days I was been blogging about my frustrations with my orientation at my new job which made me so depressed and troubled. Now I felt all relieved and a little bit off the hook. Yay! What had happened last night was a total miracle. I went to work yesterday driving so troubled because of the treatment to me by my primary preceptor the previous days of my

Well, my orientation in ER was a very mind boggling initiation. Yet, it was a very challenging one and I learned a lot from it. I was been with a lot of preceptors and I was kinda confused already. Some are very encouraging and some are not interested in teaching me leaving me to scrape my resources in order to survive the whole shift. But the most challenging part was to be left out and have

I know you were thinking that this blog should be special because it is the 100th one. Actually, I haven't yet decided what to blog.

They say that life has a lot of crooked roads. There might be a straight ones but usually we always took notice of the crooked ones. The straight ones are not that very important to us although it makes our life more easier. It brings us to our destination in a jiffy but the crooked ones will give us a lot of dilemma and challenges as we continue aiming for our individual goals. They say that a

My day was been a day with a lot of memory lapses and embarrassment. I hope I am not heading to a demented stage. I think I am not ready for that yet. It was funny because my day was started with a wrong move and a wrong decision. I woke up very refreshed and energized because I slept for more than ten hours after working three days straight the previous days. And I know today will be a more

Well, working in ER is still a struggle. It's been two months now that I am orientating there and the unit is still strange to me. I know it will gonna be difficult from the start but eventually I can get the hang of it. They say every journey starts with a single step and my journey in ER is really green. I always get shocked when I am in adult ER. Everything for me there is foreign. I felt

Things really are inevitable these days. If things gonna happen it will happen instantly. You'll never know, they'll just pop right away. You will be surprised at what will happen because things always shows up in an inopportune time. Today, I woke up with a slight pain on my right eye. This is unusual but I had a feeling it's not good. I just brushed it off for a while but by the time I was

September 4, 2010 (Saturday): I woke up that day at around 9 am. I think it's not gonna be hot that day. So I decided to take a warm shower and changed. I decided to tour outside of the vicinity near the hotel so I hire a taxicab for me to roam around Santo Domingo outside the downtown area. I met this very amiable taxicab driver named Senor Dario.

September 1, 2010 (Wednesday): It was a Thursday, the sun was out brightly as I came out from work and hurriedly drove home from my ER work at Long Beach to West Hollywood where I lived. That day I just finished my third night and I was so tired already but even though it will be compensated well because I will be leaving that day for a one week vacation to Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

I was sitting at my eight hour nursing orientation class yesterday and the speaker infused some videos for us to watch. One of the videos was about "Laughing Out a Stress" presented by a renowned comedienne and expert in discussing about stress at the job. It was a very informative video and a funny one, too.

Last week, it was just another turning point for my life. I just can't stop thanking God for giving me the courage to have spent the whole week successfully. I started to decide to move up my scope of practice to the Emergency Department from my seven years of acute pediatric floor experience. It dawned to me that I missed my action days in PICU and NICU so I decided to up-tempo my hospital

Well, they say that love is universal but one thing for sure that we must remember we must always leave something for ourselves when it comes to love. We couldn't show our love unless we start it on ourselves. We must love ourselves first before loving somebody. There are many forms of love but the most that really affects us emotionally is the love we gave to our love ones and special someone

They say life can be compared to a lot of things. And it depends on a persons interpretation how to get some lessons from it. I've been living beyond my prime now and I always never stop learning every day. Every day is always a learning process for me. This process had made me strong enough to be a man. A person I am now.

Hi guys!I have three stories to share with you. I just can't keep this to myself. I know this one will give a lot of lessons to everyone who happened to bump on this blog. As I was working for my clinical class at Catered Manor Nursing Home in Long Beach, California I happened to read this passages from a picture frame plastered on the walls at the conference room we were staying at.

I was so worried about my fate for my pre-employment application last week at Long Beach Memorial Medical Center. Because of one slight mistake I almost slipped my chance to get in that prestigious and well-known hospital. Thank God I finally got it..... Last week was a crappy week for me.

I went home today a little bit down and worried about things that had happened these previous days. I am very worried about the unknown which really scared the hell out of me. Still doesn't feel right about what had happened yesterday at my pre-employment medical exam. I hope my premonitions were all wrong. I just can't shake it off my system until now.

Every time I drove home from my clinicals from Marlinda Care Center in Lynwood I drove on the busy Freeway of 110 north going to downtown Los Angeles.
