Holy Week Musings

During the week of deep spiritual reflection of all the things we have done and Jesus has done for us, I was poring over my books, and, yes, reflecting. Well, I would not really call it reflecting, it was more of...thinking (It's very easy to get distracted when you're reading a textbook).

And so I feel that those random thoughts would be a sufficient come back post for my dear 'ol blogspot.

• Over the course of years and months, I have transformed into something I used to criticize and look down on. Let the bloody red toenails be the judge. But when I think about it, there isn't anything wrong with painting your nailbeds. It is, after all, yours. It is a way of expressing oneself. It is one's freedom, one's choice. Rainbow fingernails do not mean that a person is a Filipina version of Cerie, neither do black ones mean that she is a rebel out to ruin everyone's life.
• My happiness is up to me, not to anyone else, but to me. It's funny because I always say that to people and yet I forget.
• Obstetrics is a difficult subject. Yes, it took me one scanning over my 2 borrowed Pillitteri books to realize that.
• It's always always better to be safe than sorry.
• Sometimes, denial is a way of survival.
• My PHC book (courtesy of Lester) is still untouched and unopened. It needs TLC STAT.
• I am not a pathetic girl who would lament over someone not liking her. If you don't like me, fine, I don't give a shit. My people pleaser days are over.
• I really really really want a polaroid. I hope a kind heart out there reads this. You can PM me and ask for my address. LOL.
• I hate cheese flavored Piattos.
• I have been stagnant. I haven't been growing and learning new and interesting stuff. I will try to change that. .... Well, that doesn't mean I have to start now now, does it?;p
• It's not that I hate drama. I just hate all the pains that accompany it.
• Sometimes, it's easy to forget when you put your mind to it.
• But it's easier when you have distractions.
• I love sarcasm. How did I ever forget?
• I am a free lancer. No one, I repeat, no one gets to decide over what I should or shouldn't do. (Well, maybe for some instances, fine, most instances, my mother does. But for the sake of this post, let's forget that for a while) For that, I am grateful.

And so I am ending this post since it's 10:00 and I haven't studied yet. I will stand firm and hold my ground on this one. I hope I don't stumble.

As for my toes, they're at their natural state at the moment. I think I'm going to keep it that way...for a while anyway.

no, i am not dead yet.

I know it has been ages since my last post, 358 days to be exact. So, yes, I am aware. Painfully aware in fact. But I do not have plans on abandoning this blog --so don't u dare click that delete button!!! ;P

Things have been quite hectic with my 3D life. And it is still now, but I seem to have this disease where, in the peak of my busy days, I decide to do things my way-- this itching of careless abandon and just leaving things be... Anyhoo, this is just a reminder that I am still going to update this from time to time (Yes, even with my other ongoing blogs...See? I do have that DISEASE).

So expect more balderdash from moi.

My Death Note Character

The Guru Hath Spoken...

EXPOSE

I was on duty as usual as a spy/detective/secret agent, was bored to death and had nothing to report back to our headquarters. I was on my usual spontaneous visiting of places when I got the chance to pass by this group of people that gave me a fresh paper and new Parker fountain pen to write their scandalous work during thier duty on NICU/DR of, well, I'm not THAT lax of my data.

However, the scenes I've caught should be taken a second look.

Student Nurses Caught in the Act

Here is a look of one of the "crazier" student nurses of the batch.

There will be denial, but you be the judge.

The Door

The door that will soon be squirted with blood and goodness knows what else.

And shouts of mercy will be heard.

From what you may ask...

Believe me, you don't want to know.

THE CRIB

This is the crib where the newborns are put in to while the ones in charge bring them to the NICU to have their very first taking care of. The question is, are they really taken care of?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This group of nursing students was, I believe, given specific instructions not to use cellphones during their 8-hour shift. And believe me, txting and calling would be quite a problem since there was no signal in their area.

But this was not a problem to our little nurses...

They were here to chat after all.

The cellphone craze lives on...

And to those who were bored to tears decided to use their tears in a more productive way. That is, by reading novels [another violation, i believe].
Yes, with the "sterile" mask still on.


And this is one of the terrifying and disturbing parts. Check it yourself.

Scary, right?

These are shots of a student trying to be the next commercial model of Pepsi. Talk about horror.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Oh yeah, they also took care of the newborns when they were not so busy doing "other" stuff

And those who had "pre and post-precedure" shots...

But sadly there were those who willingly had their foolishness documented...

**This is written by a crazy but hot anonymous "detective". Those written here may be fictional. Or real. Who knows? But one thing is for sure, the pictures speak for themselves.

I don't want to sleep tonight for I miss you. For some reason I cannot comprehend I long to hear your voice telling me of the harshness of this world. I'm dying to see your long lost forgotten smile.

And I cannot sleep. I don't want to for tonight I miss you. And tomorrow is a promise of not remembering you. The bitter memories of the past would make me numb of your existence or used-to-be existence. And I don't want to wake up to that. I want to stay missing you. Because I know I should. And I do. I do miss you, I think I forever will. But reality really bites.

And I'll forever love you, even if you never felt the same way. I know how you preferred her over me. I know that when you were saying you pitied her, you were really wishing she was your own. And I don't want to cry over someone who didn't want me. I can do better.

Except I see your last look, the empty eyes. I remember how you reached your hand, asking me to hold it. I see the blood and I hear your labored breathing. And I can't help but cry.

more "me"

i got addicted. perfect time really. big tests tomorrow. oh well.
