I am.

Aww... these teacup babies are just too cute!
Don't worry... mommy's going to get you soon =p

I Need To Be In Love
by: The Carpenters

The hardest thing I've ever done is keep believing
There's someone in this crazy world for me
The way that people come and go through temporary lives
My chance could come and I might never know

I used to say "No promises, let's keep it simple"
But freedom only helps you say goodbye
It took a while for me to learn that nothing comes for free
The price I paid is high enough for me

* I know I need to be in love
I know I've wasted too much time
I know I ask perfection of a quite imperfect world
And fool enough to think that's what I'll find

+ So here I am with pockets full of good intentions
But none of them will comfort me tonight
I'm wide awake at 4 a.m. without a friend in sight
I'm hanging on a hope but I'm all right

repeat *
repeat +
repeat *

Below is Sitti Navarro's version of the song =)

Things you DON'T want to hear during your own surgery:

1. Na saan na yung bagong gunting? Bakit may kalawang 'to?

2.10mL?! May naka-survive na ba diyan?! Sabi ko 5mL lang eh!

3. Doc, ubos na po pala yung anesthesia.

4. Kanina pa bukas yung tiyan, na saan na yung pangtahi?

5. SUNOG! SUNOG!! LABAS NA KAYONG LAHAT!!!

O.o Haha...

- quote from Gelo

Matagal na rin naglalaro sa isip ko to...
Paano nga kung talagang nagka-sunog sa hospital partikular sa Operating Room - sa kagitnaan ng operasyon?

a.) Itutuloy pa rin kaya nila ang operasyon?

b.) Sasabay ang mga surgeon at nurses patakbo sa labas para lang mailigtas ang sarili habang iniwanan ang pasyente sa operating room?

c.) Tatakbo silang lahat palabas daladala ang pasyente na hindi pa natatahi ang incision na ginawa sa kanya?

Nakakatawa kung iisipin.

Pero...

Ano nga ba ang dapat gawin?

Alot of things happened today.

First, I went to school in my 3/4 pants because my two comfortable pants are still in the laundry basket and 2nd, I wore my black slip-on wedge.

I went through the high school gate, as usual. Everything was fine. Not until I passed through the college gate since the cafeteria was close. The freaking thin guard reprimanded me for wearing my wedge slip-ons! And then we got into a hell of 'paki-usapan'! God, you don't have an idea! Good thing Karz, Pau and Aid were there! I'm so touched on how they helped me... especially Aid who helped me talk to the freaking retard! But still, nothing happened... so he told me: "Tara! Ako bahala sa yo! Ikot tayo dun sa may caf... sana bukas." (while telling the guard: "Ang laki mo talagang abala noh?!") Haha... I can't tell whether or not I'm lucky today... but I'm glad to know that I still have them as my friends that I can count on in times of trouble =)

Our professors were late as usual. We were supposed to have a review first but we ended up having the examS first! Yes! Exams! 3 EXAMssS lang naman for one professor! We didn't see that one coming @_@ And since we had 3 exams, which are freaking hard (well, not so hard... but hard), we ended up consuming the alotted time for the review as well.

After I passed my papers, I immediately review my answers... and found out that i actually change my right answer into the wrong one!!! Hai... when stupidity strikes -_- Also, I actually forgot that O2 under pressure is contraindicated for meconium staining! Too bad there were two questions having that same answer... now I have 4 sure mistakes (the other one was about the causative agent of Ophthalmia neonatorum). I just hope that I got the others right!

Over with the exams. Aiko, Florence and I went to ATC to have lunch and shop till they drop. Yup... the two went shopping while I make suggestions haha =p
The surprise was... they bought a fuchsia pink blouse for me! Nakakahiya but at the same time nakaka-touch =) I even told them that it's ok and that all I need that moment was a pin ('cause my blouse kept on showing some flesh... YUCK!) But they insisted so I agreed but in my mind: I'll pay them on Monday haha =p

When both of them had enough of their limited budget, we decided to go home. Aiko took the taxi while Florence and I went for the jeep to Southland then the shuttle to Phase 1. Upon reaching our village, I decided to walk my way home. But this day seem to be jinxed somehow. Just imagine... I'm not yet half my way home when it started to rain! I thought of spending some time under someone else's roof because I don't have an umbrella... but I was shy so I decided to walk even though it's raining hard @_@ Then my theme song was: "Heto ako... basang basa sa ulan, walang masisilungan... walang malalapitan." Haha... Now I'm feeling sick @_@

Looking on the brighter side, it's been a while since I last bathe in the rain =p

I was anticipating a sermon from my parents but they didn't! I smell freedom (Yellow for NINOY!) =) but I was hoping for the sermon though... 'cause it's then that I feel their care. Swooosh! Nagdrama pa! Haha =p

Below is a random video that my sister made me watch.
It's quite amusing! See for yourself =)

Nothing beats a good laugh in the morning!

Panda na nagpapa-ID picture:

"Kuya, colored ha..." =)

- quote from Aiko

Haha... Opo! Mababaw lang ako =P

I love to watch movies (but WHERE? WHEN? and WHAT? - still depends on my mood)! But it's just recently that I've realized that I love watching them all by myself at home. Great that they have discovered DVDs and DVD players! =P

Why?

Maybe because...
1) there are no / less distractions
2) you can truly appreciate what you are watching
3) you can cry if needed @_@ Haha..


SHIFTING a little.

Speaking of movies, I've watch some films a couple of times already. And I watch some intentionaly when I'm feeling a bit down - comfort movie it is! This includes:

This movie is so cute! Two divorced individuals, which happened to be college sweethearts, marries... forcing their 18 kids to live with each other. Well, it's really hard to force something in a flash... it will either ruin something or have a bitter ending. But there's no harm in trying, right? Anyway, it's fun and exciting to have a "one BIG family".

Some of my other comfort movies:
A Cinderella Story
13 going 30
Princess Diaries =)

(singit lang) Non-stop V/S monitoring q15 with Florence in the Recovery Room for 4 days straight... boring? Pero na-enjoy ko! haha =p


(/singit lang)

It was our first time to observe an actual Cesarean Section...
and I must say... I was thrilled! I know it sounds weird but I am happy to see it right in front of my tiny eyes. You know, it's different when you see it in videos. Now I can't wait to assist on one. It's nerve wracking, yes! But I know I can manage =p

My realizations are getting stronger during my LPDH OR duty.
And I think it's final! -- I don't want to give birth! @_@ It's such a pain! Either Normal Spontaneous Delivery or CS.

Ok, ok! I know a lot of you will react like my group mates.
Nothing can compare to the joy of being a mother. Of course I would like to experience the same thing but I don't think my physique can handle that. Pero sabi nga nila... 'Wag kang magsalita ng patapos' haha.

This is just way too cute!! =)
