>_<
Still woozy from all the non-stop partying and huge waves on the way back here to cebu. Stupid Transasia.. nyahaha
Just got back from review session and PRC form filing.
Gah
Soo tired..
Spent about 300 pesos for those stupid forms. Plus I had to wait for hours just to have it signed.
Grrr..
Will post something readable in the next few days. When I'm not so tired and all.
Haist.
Here are some pics from our boracay escapade though..
Will post the whole album if I have the extra time and energy.. nyahaha
>_<
Yesterday, the results were out whether who among the graduating class will be taking the June or November board exams. Fortunately, I got in the 1st batch (yey for that!) and so, I now have approximately 79 days left to study, review, read and scan gazillions of review materials for the board exam!
The good side of the story is, there will be no conflict with my schedule when I will be attending my classes in med school since the June board exams is on the 6th and 7th and classes will start at the 8th.
The bad side is, I haven't read a single book yet from the stack the reviewer has told us to read by heart.
So the game plan? "Turn your nights into days". haha. That's according to our dean anyway.
I think I'll read the CHN book first because community theory has never been my kind of taste. Haist.. So please pray for me on that.. >_<
A while ago, we had our Faculty-Senior's day. It was fun though the food was distasteful probably because I felt sick all day due to alcohol withdrawal symptoms. (Di na ko mutagay ug tanduay!)
In the afternoon, I dropped by at CIM to get my acceptance letter. So yey for that.
Tomorrow, my day would be filled with graduation rehearsals, toga fittings and clearance signing. Plus, my mom is coming over tomorrow so things would definitely be hectic.
...
I really should quit yapping and start hitting those books! haha
>_<
Sa totoo lang napakahirap magsimula ng isang lathalain na walang topic na napag-isipan bago pa man likhain ang isang kwento.. Kaya't pagpa-sensyahan nyo na lang ang sulating ito at sana'y maunawaan nyo ang ibig ipahiwatig ng mga salitang ito at naway makayanan ninyong basahin ang napakahabang lathalain na to.. hahaha
Parang kelan lang ng pumasok ako sa mundo ng nursing.. natatandaan ko pa nun, nakasulat sa hallway papasok sa building ang mga katagang, "through these doors passed young men and women who have dedicated their lives to the practice of caring". lagot. caring pala pinasok ko.. nyahaha.. wala ata akong ganun.. natatandaan ko kasi simula noong bata pa ako, wala akong masyadong pakialam sa buhay ng ibang tao. pilosopiya ko kasi noon, na ang tao ay dapat pagtuunan lamang ng pansin ang kanyang sarili at wala ng iba.. ikanga sa ingles, "a man for his own".
sa simula pa lang di ko naman talaga ginusto ang pumasok sa nursing. sino ba naman kasi ang magkakagusto sa kursong ito na kung saan lubhang mahirap na nga makapasa eh wala pang kwenta pag-graduate mo kasi di ka kaagad makahanap ng trabaho.. dapat ka munang pumasa ng sangkatutak na mga exams bago mo makukuha ang pinakamimithi mong premyo.. ang makapasok sa estados unidos, the land of milk and honey.. nyahaha
ayon sa statistics na nabasa ko noon, sa 10 nursing graduate, 2 lamang daw ang mapalad na nakakapang-ibang bansa.. sino ba naman kasi ang tatagal sa higpit ng screening, dami ng applicants at hirap ng mga exams na dapat mong pagdaanan.. mas mabuti pa yata nag-caregiver na lang ako.. mas madali pang makapasok sa europa.. pounds na din un! mas lamang yata kontra dolyar.. nyahaha
pero di talaga yata plano ni Lord na ibang kurso kukunin ko.. dahil nauwi pa rin talaga ako sa nursing.. ang mga pinagpipilian ko kasi noong araw, eh biology, med tech o di kaya nursing kung wala na talagang mapasukan. biruin nyo naman, nakapasa na nga ako sa UP para sa kursong biology tsaka sa MSU at Ateneo, pinili ko pa ring pumasok sa nursing sa isang baguhang unibersidad.. marahil magtataka kayo kung ano kaya pumasok sa kokote ko ng mga oras na un.. ang totoo naiinggit kasi ako sa kapatid ko na nag-nunursing din noon.. nakakainggit kasi sabi nya sobrang challenging daw ng nursing.. "only for the brave of heart". kaya na-challenge talaga ako ng husto.. ako pa naman ang klase ng tao na challenges lagi sa eskwelahan hinahanap.. hehehe.. yoko kasi mapurol ang utak ko sa mga napakawalang-kwentang kurso gaya na lamang ng tourism na kung saan pagpapa-gwapo lamang ata dapat mong gawin para makapasa. at isa pa, nakita ko rin ang nursing bilang isang magandang pre-med course.
kaya dun nagsimula ang kalbaryo ko sa nursing. pinawisan kakahanap ng CI, nalipasan ng gutom sa haba ng mga lectures, napaiyak dahil di pa tapos sa mga requirements kahit madaling araw na, gumising ng maaga (4am) para sa morning shift duty,napuyat dahil sa night shift duty, naamoy lahat ng klase ng baho na nilikha sa mundong ibabaw gaya na lamang ng (ihi, tae, dugo, pasyenteng walang ligo, mga pasyenteng may kulang sa pag-iisip at ward ng mga ospital) , gumawa ng thesis, nakipag-away, nakipag-suntukan (uy wild! hahaha), nangopya, nagpakopya, nakakita ng ibat-ibang klase ng genitalia, tumakas sa ospital wyl on duty, natulog wyl on duty, tumawa, umiyak, nakipag-inuman at nagsunog ng kilay..
pero sa halos apat na taong paghihirap ko sa mundo ng nursing, ano nga ba ang natutunan ko dito? lumawak ba ang saklaw ng aking pag-iisip? bumuti ba ang relasyon ko sa kapwa? naging makabuluhan ba ang halos kalahating milyon na nagasto ko sa kursong ito (lol)?...
una sa lahat, natuto ako na dapat gamitin ang nursing process (ADPIE) sa lahat ng bagay. natuto ako papano magbigay ng ineksyon, kung anong bakuna dapat ibigay, mga ibat'ibang klase ng gamot at sakit, papano magbigay ng dextrose, papano maglinis ng pwerta ng babae, mag-arrange ng surical instruments, mag-ayos ng bedsheets (naku! challenging to!), mag-labor watch at kumuha ng blood pressure, temperature at pulso at napakarami pang iba.. haha
nalaman ko rin na kung papasok ka sa isang lecture na magsisimula ng 7:30 at matatapos ng 12:30, dapat bestfriend mo na si skyflakes at zest-o.. na-discover ko rin na tuwing exams, mas makabubuti kung nakatulog ka ng at least 4 hours at disaster pag pumasok ka na lasing at walang alam, natuto din ako na mortal na kasalanan sa nursing ang di gumamit ng gunting pang-gupit ng papel kasi nga depensa ng teacher ko, "nursing is an art". nalaman ko rin ang deeper meaning ng motto na, "it's better to be absent than to be late".
higit sa lahat, nalaman ko na mas magiging masaya at makabuluhan ang iyong nursing life kung marunong kang makisama sa mga taong mas may alam at owtoridad sau, at pati na rin sa mga makakatrabaho mo sa ospital, kaklase at mga kaibigan. nalaman ko na ibang saya ang dulot ng pagkakaroon ng malalapit na kaibigan na dumaramay sau sa panahon ng kalungkutan at pangungulila. nalaman ko na mas masarap ang fridays pag kasama mo ang barkada at kumakain kau sa tabi-tabi (pungko-pungko) o di kaya ay sa kahit anong restawran na trip nyo na abot sa budget.. natuto din ako na dapat ihiwalay ang puti sa de-kolor kung maglalaba kundi lagot ang mga puti mong uniform at briefs. nalaman ko na epektib ang bigyan ang sarili ng reward sa bawat paghihirap na natamo buhat sa pagsusunog ng kilay. nalaman ko rin na para tumagal ka sa propesyong ito, dapat kumpleto ka sa tatlong bagay na ito: nursing kit (kasama na dito ang BP apparatus, stethoscope, iba't ibang klase ng kulay ng ballpen, ruler, gunting, sinulid at karayom! oo adik talaga! hahaha) ,tibay ng loob at pagtitiwala sa sarili.. natutunan ko rin na hindi lamang sa eskwelahan napag-aaralan ang propesyon ng nursing, may mas magagaling pang lecture na nakukuha mula sa buhay ng iyong mga pasyente, buhay ng mga pangkaraniwang tao, at mga karanasan ng mga taong minsan ay nagmalasakit ka para iyong tulungan.
at higit sa lahat, nalaman ko rin na mas mabuti pala na may pakialam ka sa buhay ng iba dahil, gustuhin man natin o hindi, bawat aksyon na ginagawa natin kahit di natin sadyain ay may epekto sa buhay ng mga taong nakapaligid sa atin. kung ano man ang desisyon natin sa buhay, hindi lamang tau ang naaapektuhan kundi pati na rin ang ating mga kapamilya, kaanak, kaibigan, katrabaho at lahat ng mga taong pumapaligid sa atin.. kaya't imbes na sarili lang natin isipin natin, mas makakabubuti sa lahat kung ituon din natin ang ating konting atensyon tungo sa pangangailangan ng iba..

Yes I'm back, still alive and kicking for 2009.. hehe
It's been quite a while since the last time I wrote something here in my dear blog.. Yes, life has been pretty tough on me lately though I survived it and I'm glad where I am standing right now..
So what have I been up to lately?
1. I spent christmas and new year with my folks at Nasipit. Great times, plus I got a chance to visit my relatives in zamboanga
2. School stuff - research, pre-board, requirements, duties, med school applications, you name it!
3. Graduation requirements - yes, and thankfully, I will graduate next week.. >_<
Changes
Yes my dear friends, change has finally come to The Daily Scribbles. For the new year 2009, I have decided to revamp this blog and do some minor renovations. For the next coming days, when my schedule permits, I will be doing some minor changes so please stay tuned for that.. One tip, I'll be writing more in tagalog due to the influence of my new idol writer Bob Ong. nyahaha
I guess I really missed writing in this blog and I hope you'll see more of me this coming weeks..
JB is now back online.. >_<
Ola dear readers! haha
You might be wondering why this blog has not updated itself for the past few weeks.
The reason my dear friends is utterly incomprehensible.. Totally outrageous and beserk I tell you.
My friends, I've become what I've always feared the most..
Oh yes you got it right. JB has become a lazy, lousy, good for nothing sloth. hahahaha
And am I to be blamed for this? Nah. haha. I have my study load to be blamed for that.
Though seriously, I missed writing here in my dear blog and talking to anonymous and invisible so-called readers.. haha
So what kept me busy these past few weeks?
1. RESEARCH! hahaha. Though finally, I hope I'm never gonna see a single, damn watermelon seed soon nor drink another glass of watermelon juice. Oh yeah, we passed our oral defense thanks to numerous sleepless nights so gone are the days of research worries and finally hello to graduation. ^^
2. Halloween vacation. I went home to our place for about a week. I missed home and man, it was really good. My mom decided to buy herself a PC so that my dad and us can connect in cyberspace. haha. Talk about being cyber-techie. But nevertheless, my vacation ended up with me lecturing my mom on how to start YM (yeah, that little smiley icon mom, hehehe) and teaching her how to call from one PC to another, etc.
3. Driving Lessons. Suprised? hehehe. I got my driver's license when I came home to our place so my dad decided it's about time for me to learn the tricks of the road. I enrolled myself in Prodrive (the oldest driving school in Cebu). Tip for other students, don't fight with your instructors and don't forget to step on the clutch! haha
4. School requirements and enrollment. I still have a dozen of requirements to make and I'm still halfway through with them. So good luck to me! hahaha. ^^
5. NMAT review. Yes I know. NMAT needs no review, it's easy, just simple high school stuff, blah blah.. But since I started answering the sample test booklet, I realized, this IS hard. haha. I can't even solve simple quadratic equations and remember basic physics formula! So I'm taking the time to review these stuff so that I'm ready for Dec.14. haha
Aside from this, I still have enhancement skills and board exam review sessions to attend.
Plus, we're assigned to CDUH - NIGHT shift next week.
Haist.
Oh well, more time to study then. haha
Till my next blog..
Au2 mo mga invisible readers! Hahaha
p.s.
I'm back in the gym again. Plus I'm trying a new diet. haha. Hope this one works. ^^
