Lost

kanina, we weren't in school. we were in a baranggay in Bulacan, Bulacan for the completion of our Community Diagnosis. yeah, it's already late and perhaps the Community Participation of our class in partial fulfillment of the requirements in Community Health Nursing will be implemented this late summer. i am late. i arrived at 8.30am where supposedly i have to arrive at 8am. i sorta blame someone (but not really) for not preparing the food i will eat for lunch in the community. immediately affter i arrive at Bulacan, Bulacan, i searched for my classmetes especially mypartner. even if i am not feeling good for almost 3 days, still i go to the community because of my partner. she will have no assistance if i will leave and take a rest due to my medical condition. i was surprised when they told me, "ei, individual na daw para mabilis ung survey". the community survey (some kind of census) is made of 8-page questionnaire. it will take long to survey the remaining 400 population if we will not make it individually. so i decided to interview.

Family # 1: the sole breadwinner of the family is the mother who works as kubrador (for jueteng). she told me, "ba't walang nag-iinterview sa amin duon sa lugar namin? ...duon kami sa lagpas pa sa may patubig sa kabilang tulay pa."

with my shame, "ok nay puntahan ko po. san po ba? may aso po ba dun?"

ok, i got there. not noticing it's me alone there. i surveyed the whole compund not noticing of the time. it's already past 12nn when i noticed that oh my god! i should be at the health center na. nBut i still have to interview one family to completely interview the compound. what i do not know is that my classmates aand my four clinical instructors are already searching for me. it's like a rescue operation. i am not so much oriented that there are a lot of NPA's there. i do not have any mobile phone at the moment because it will just bug me. i sw kuya Andy and Edward. i told to the mother of the last family i am interviewing, "nay sandali lang po tawagin ko lang mga kasama ko." God, they told me they are so much worried. they thought NPA kidnapped me and some thought i lost consciousness because of my current medical condition (as the clinical instructors got informed yesterday). i so much appreciate their concern for me but in my part, it a so much shame. so much shame. really. they thought i was lost or something. haha

How to Get Spectacular Grades from School

This article wasn't my idea actually. Here are just realizations of what's the best way to get good grades and how to have a full long-term memory rather than having a sensory motor or short-term memory. Advices are made by our very own writer from the Philippines, Ms. Jessica Zafra. Ewan ko ba kung natagpuan nya na ang tinitibok ng puso nya. haha. what i know is that matalino siya. start na tayo?

Irony of a False Love

Isn’t it stupid that we allow a person whom we barely know and whom we just met to destroy the fruits of our past and to dictate our future by investing all our emotions in the belief that he/she can provide the happiness that we would need to last our lifetime? Isn’t it amazing how society can make us believe that we can leave the very people who have molded us into who we are just for this certain “special someone”? Isn’t it ironic how almost everyone subject themselves to emotional anxiety and pains in search of what they call ‘LOVE’, when in fact, nobody can even provide a single (and universally accepted) definition of this word, when nobody can guarantee an end when the journey begins? It only hurts when I’m awake. In my dreams you love me more. You let me hold you for as long as I want to and you never let go or back away from me. You let me kiss you in public no matter how passionate or sensual that kiss may be. You listen to everything I have to say even if they don’t mean j

Random 101

Inspired. No. I am not in love. Let's just say that I got inspired with what my mother told me. They are actually creepy stories and I can't believe that my father will be able to do such thing when I was a child. Even though our set of businesses are starting to fall one by one, he still managed to provide everything that i want. If only I know what is happening that time, I should've not tolerated him. The story my mother told me made me cry and it gave me the determination to push even harder. I know they expected a lot from me about taking up a business-related course and i failed them. But i'll prove them wrong. I reserved something better for them. And won't fail them this time. Not even a little. I won't tell what that creepy story was. I just want to remember that i got inspired with what my mother told me. When I look at this entry after some long years, still, I will remember what that creepy story was. Love. In relation to the first part, I just real
