I don't believe in scarcity
Why is it that while others are busy looking for nursing jobs, it always finds its way to haunt me instead?
This afternoon I received a message from Asian Hospital Nursing Department saying that they’re scheduling me for an interview on Monday. I was left dumbfounded with that SMS because first, I can’t remember submitting my CV to the institution and second, I heard they are only...

Tough day at work
Yesterday, I felt like it was my worst day in the office. You know that feeling when your workmates aren’t satisfied with the way you did your job? Even though they know that you’re having a hard time adjusting because first, they are expecting a lot from you and second, they have their own issues with themselves? Well, I know and I felt that feeling. It sucks.
First, I was helpless...

Sneak peek
I sworn to myself last January that I won’t have a boyfriend anymore (or at least, try). So will that make me a sucker for romance? Actually not. I am happy and contented (with all honesty) that I am not involved in a relationship and/or commitment at the time. Love played jokes on me ever since-I liked a guy that liked another girl. I liked a guy that’s seriously in love with himself...

Take his word
Don’t feel sorry for yourself for not having a date on Valentine’s Day. Feel sorry for them because you are not their date on this special day for couples. It only means that you are still beyond the control of your emotions. After all, being single is more of a blessing rather than a regret.

While we were working on Valentine’s day a lot of our doctors teased...

Fireworks and Hot air balloons
Isn’t it amazing that these simple things make our minds wander and imagine a lot? That in a little movement of our neck, we can appreciate more than what we see. That we can experience bliss from an image whose only purpose is to play with our imagination then all of sudden we felt we were kids again, young and giddy, without any reasons at all. This is what I’ve always wanted. To see...

Let's straighten this up
A teenage girl was referred to one of our doctors for some serious correction of her back problem - a dextro-scoliosis of T4 to T11 with an 80 degree Cobb angle of the curve. This is my first time to assist a spine surgery and yes, it was a heck of an experience with continuous shots of C-arm fluoroscope.
Patient’s X-Ray result before the surgery.
Exposure had to be done such that all...

First crossroad for 2012
I’ve started the year right by making plans for myself, career and family. It turned out to be so good especially that I’ve lifted my status as orthopedic nurse trainee/front-desk staff last three weeks ago. It means that if I’m not in the OR assisting in surgeries, I am tasked to receive and schedule patients for their follow ups and consultations. Actually, it is not that hard...

Last rant about O
been weeks (or months?) since we last talked. Now, I’m torn between sending you my usual good night messages or not. What happened to us? Is it really the end? Is it your way of ending things with me? By blocking me on your facebook and not communicating with me at all? This is bullsh*t!
Anyway, I’ve been a sucker for you like hell. And now I got so fed up with all the shit that you...

Spare this girl
SHE’S 12 AND SHE DOESN’T KNOW WHAT SHE IS TALKING ABOUT.
Add the fact that she’s not even in college to say these things. That means her whole idea of what university life is very limited to hearsays and stories from other people.
Anyway, I mus not make patol to another member this-is-my-opinion-fuck-you-haters club. I don’t have to go deep down to the level of...

Not that I'm hopeless
I think it will be better to stop or at least avoid worrying about so many things in life especially relationships and behaviors. And I have to agree with Peej that I over-analyze small situations and gestures. But I can reason out that its just normal to us girls and it can be traced to the times of our Venusian ancestors. Do we all agree with this, ladies?
With this, I’m opting to settle...

Save the cheerleader
A 19-year old cheerleader from one of the biggest universities here in the country landed on the pavement instead of in her catching team’s human net during cheerleading practice. She managed to prevent her head from smashing on the pavement by sticking out her left lower limb. However, she twisted her left ankle badly and bruised it prominently.
As it turned out, she had a fractured...

Dear Girl,
If you’re lonely, don’t mess with other people’s mood. First of all, you are not his top most priority because he has his family. He has his relatives to share the festivities of this season with. If you’re lonely on New Year’s eve, don’t expect him to be with you. Don’t expect him to exchange his time for his family just to be with you. Let me tell you...

The miracle of hearing
Yang’s heart rate slightly increases whenever she hears us, her friends, laughing and giggling like we used to. Even though she’s still unresponsive to light and motor stimulation, I know deep inside her, she wants to spend this new year’s eve celebration with us. We are waiting for you, Yang. We know that you and your family will be able to surpass this great wave in front of...

Wala na nga kong boyfriend sa new year, wala pa...
Yes, she looks familiar. She’s an endorser and a model so probably you’ve seen some of her prints before. Right now, she’s not the person I’ve been trusting for years. She’s in deep coma as of this afternoon since yesterday. Her brain as well as her liver is swelling. She’s only responsive to pain stimulation. So basically, she is not in good shape. How should...

Sad nights ain't gonna last
The truth is, I could never give up on you, no matter how many times I lie and say I’ve let you go, and no longer care. I still hope. I still expect that things would be better. I miss you so much and worse, you don’t feel the same.

Enthusiasm
I can use my Filed! planner starting today. 2012 is my fourth year in organizing my thoughts and keeping it in a journal. Anyway, work resumes tomorrow so goodluck to me because i’ll be the nurse-reliever of Dr. LCL, the most sought-after orthopedic surgeon in the country.
Someday, I’ll perform miracles by making the cripple walk again.

The difference between patients
[ While waiting for the doctor ]
Totoong Mayaman - Tahimik lang. Nakaupo, pasipol-sipol o kaya nagbabasa ng dyaryo. Nagpapasalamat after ng consultation.
Umaastang mayaman - Late sa appointment. Haggard pagdating. Kinukulit ang receptionist, text ng text, kunyaring may kausap na driver sa cellphone, uma-attitude, tinatarayan ang nurses pag late si doktor, hindi naglalagay ng birthday sa form...

The essence of being a godparent
Christmas is here again. And Children now (and parents) start bugging the godparents for gifts. Let me correct you with that little belief that children is to gifts and Christmas is to godparents. It is not.
When you have been chosen to sponsor a child’s baptism, you will be then called a godparent. Thank heavens for that! Being a godparent is like having an opportunity to support a child...

First day at work
It was fun that my workmates are really kind to me. They’re orienting me with how things are going inside the doctors’ clinics and treatment room. But my butt cheeks hurt from sitting all day, greeting patients and scheduling their appointments. Oh well, at least, I have these reasons to smile:
We had patients from La Salle, Philippine Azkals and San Beda and they’re all under...
I got the job!
My training will start on Monday. Oh hai Makati it’s nice to be back! Oh hi ortho patients, it’s you again. Nyahahaha! Less time for tumblr means more time for making moolah. :)
