Unexpected

May 31, 2007

I never expected you’d give up soon.

I never expected what you’ve been so sure before would fade so quickly.

I never expected that distance would affect you so.

I never expected you’d hurt me, despite knowing what battle scars I’ve had.

You even told me how you are also looking for the right one.

And how we fell for each other, I thought it is going to last this time.

But you let go.

I cannot understand,

how can something you’re so sure of fade away so soon?

Thursday Thirteen #18: 13 Weird Things About Me

May 31, 2007

thursdaythirteenpink.jpg

There has been a meme, “6 Weird Things About Me”, going around and I really wanted to post it here. But since I have difficulty choosing 6 out of the numerous weird stuff that I do, I chose to post it as my Thursday Thirteen. :D

13 Weird Things About Me

  1. I’m afraid of Barney
  2. I like eating cold guinataan fresh from the refrigerator. Yum!
  3. Whenever I visit a bookstore, I buy one notebook. Any kind. But I’m especially attracted to cute covers (not covers with pictures of celebrities, please!)
  4. I like the smell of newly autoclaved agar plates
  5. I also like the smell of newly photocopied paper.

Shari, The Musical

May 31, 2007

Well, that’s rude. Must be the longest unplanned absence I’ve had since December last year. All because of a single tiny · that sucked all the blood inside me. And I’m in no mood to talk about it. I had a fever, yadda yadda blah blah.

But the past few days have served as a venue for soul-searching. What else can I do when the phone connection has been intermittent, and power has gone nuts on me? But anyway, it’s surprising to realize how much I missed on a lot of things since I started blogging regularly. Almost all of them are in line with music and love (yuck), but bear with me, eh?

The Name Project

May 31, 2007

I’ve always been fascinated with names. Whenever I meet someone for the first time, one of the first things I ask is: “What does your name mean?” A lot of people find this weird because (a) they don’t know what their name means, (b) they don’t care what their name means, or (c) they just think it’s weird of me to ask what their name means.

I think it’s sad when someone doesn’t know what their name means, and I think it’s just tragic when they don’t care. Names are names for a reason. They have meanings, and I think that it makes a difference in who we are.

Don’t believe me? I’ll give you an example.

Nominated si Mickey, Vote for Him!

May 30, 2007

Nominated si Mickey, at dahil diyan, meron na kong itinanim na galit kay WENDY, BEA, SAICY at si BRUCE, dahil lahat ng 2 points na vote nila ay ibinigay nila kay Mickey, si Bruce, maiintindihan ko pa eh, kasi feeling ko alam niya na threat si Mickey. At feeling ko naman, hindi niya naman talaga nahampas si NEL. Pero ang mga girls, ang kakapal ng face nila. Yang si Wendy, kakabalik lang, nakakirita na agad, pasalamat siya maganda siya, hay naku no, pareho lang kaming taga CAMANAVA, at sobra landi niya, gumagawa lang siya ng ingay, at tama na nga ang pagkakanta niya, kala mo naman ang special ng boses, You are so ordinary, pag tayong 2 kumanta sa DIGOYS, pareho lang tayo ng palakpak. At narinig nyo ba yung sinabi sa nomination, “2 points para kay Mickey, dahil hindi pa siya nanonominate” ANG TALINO MO! At yan ngang si SAICY, tantanan nga niya ako sa pag dadance niya diyan, mas magaling si Mickey no. Pasalamat siya, nung nakaraang nomination, sa Bacolod ginawa yung remote broadcast, kung hindi natanggal siya. At si BEA, oh BEA, ilang beses mo na ninominate si Mickey, hindi ka nagtagumpay, ngayon lang. Naku, matatanggal ka din. Hindi ka mananalo!!!!!

When Discriminating Patients Become Insulting

May 29, 2007

In today’s times when the average person is often bombarded by images and news of “bad” hospitals “detaining” patients who cannot pay for hospital bills and “evil” doctors who are money-hungry or out to “kill” patients, people have begun developing a general mistrust of doctors. It is as if every doctor they’d encounter will give them haphazardly done medical service and then squeeze out all the money from their pockets. And this growing mistrust of doctors is hindering our efforts to improve our country’s provision of health care.

I never thought that I’d be seeing such overly-suspicious and stubborn patients until one 24-hour duty in a hospital emergency room, I encountered one. Well, actually, she’s the patient’s “mother”. Being in the Philippines, we have come to “accept” the fact that Filipinos have developed the bad habit of going to the emergency room seeking outpatient clinic services (follow-up consult after treatment of urinary tract infections, requesting lab referrals for pre-employment physical exams because they don’t have the “time” during the weekdays, which is rather unbelievable because it’s a pre-employment medical exam and it means they’re jobless so they have all the time available, etcetera).

In this case, the overly-suspicious and stubborn person (which I will call “Mara”) brought her 4-year old “son” because of some coughing, cold, and a low-grade fever. After some tests, it turned out that the kid has only a mild respiratory tract infection. I prescribed a 7-day course of Amoxicillin 250 mg/5mL syrup 5 mL every 8 hours and a paracetamol for fever. Mara argued that the dose I prescribed was not enough. I asked her why she thought so.

The Saint

May 29, 2007

Once there was a man who is a Personal Manager of a publication house.
He was ordered by the higher ups to fire the old workers to make salary for the new and fresh blood.
He quickly refused the order.
He resigned to give the old employees their salary.
Then he drove a school bus.

I am so sorry to say that the person ( I somehwat loved )

The deadly Mother’s club

May 29, 2007

Marie Claire magazine featured an article in its May 2007 edition about a certain mother’s club that exists in Japan. This club supposedly is composed of mothers within a community. Membership to the club is believed to be essential to one’s child’s success in school and in the community with regards to access to opportunity. Apparently, membership comes with opened doors to good schools and good services. Much like being in a high school clique.

It is a difficult task to get accepted into the club. One must be deemed acceptable by the members of the club and especially approved by the boss mom. One’s manners, clothes, income, friends, way of life is scrutinized and judged. Once a member, mothers have to behave, dress, walk, talk, and live according to the club’s defined standards which are mostly dependent on the club’s boss mom. Going against the group is social suicide.

AVG Anti-Virus of Geri

May 29, 2007

avg ko

One day at the mall while window shopping, I’ve found this cool pendant that was shaped like a shuriken and with matching color of the AVG Antivirus logo. (I am using AVG for more than two years now, PROBLEM FREE)

Bought and wear it right away. Then at the office, one of my officemates saw it and ask me “Hey Geri! Whatta nice necklace you got there! What does your pendant means?”

Surprised by her asking, I immediately response “It’s my Anti-Virus” with a big grin on my face. hehehe  :lol:

Let’s All Go To Iraq And Plant Kamote!

May 29, 2007

I’m looking for a job.

There I said it. I can’t seem to find a job that suits me well. I graduated in 2005 and God knows how long (and hard) two years of being a bum is. If someone out there knows a part-time job or two then dude (or dudette) please help me out.
Anyways, good thing there is Jobstreet and JobsDB (PI version of Monster and Career builder). They seriously save my soles from being abused by the mangled road asphalt (no thanks to MMDA and DPWH!) of Manila. You could try your luck by browsing through their site for job vacancies in various companies around the country (most are based in Manila though). If you’re not lucky enough just like me, well you can always take the road and try to look for jobs the old fashion way but If you’re the type who doesn’t easily give up and you were born adventurous and is willing to face danger then check out this ad that I stumbled upon.

Pro-bono Pi Beta Sigma testers needed

May 28, 2007

Hi everyone, The P.B.S. Blog Network (just another FREE pinoy weblogs provider) is NOT yet at a Beta phase, not even Alpha :) …nasa Pi Beta Sigma stage pa lang eh. hehe. I’m not sure if it will undergo the normal development process though *LoL*. Part-time lang din naman kseng naaasikaso sa ngayon. Siguro eventually mas mabigyan ng attention at suporta ;) 

 

Anyways, I’m just emailing to ask those who might be interested to be the first few to have a Free blog hosted at PINOYBLOGOSPHERE.NET ( http://YOURBLOG.pinoyblogosphere.net). Magsisilbi po munang mga testers yung mga mauuna. Fully functional na rin naman siya powered by Wordpress MU. Ang kailangan na lang ay malaman mula mismo sa mga end-users kung anu-anong mga WP Themes & Plugins ang gusto nilang ma-install at magamit sa kanya-kanyang mga blogs na kukunin nila ;)  Pagtulungan po nating paganahin at pagandahin ‘to. Atin po lahat ‘to. (Parang MaKaTi eh noh. Mahalin natin. Atin ‘to! hehe) Para sa buong sangka-PBS-an :D

 

Just send your requests to us (admin@pinoyblogosphere.com or support@pinoyblogosphere.com) and we’ll send you details on how to proceed with the registration. Limited pa lang ang makakagister directly thru the homepage kaya by email requests na lang muna ;) Please don’t forget to mention your desired SUBDOMAIN(BLOGNAME) in your request.  Siyangapala, the free blogs that we’ll be giving comes with a FREE EMAIL too that matches your subdomain.  so kung  gusto mo ng blog na   http://BLOGKOTO.pinoyblogosphere.net, magkakaroon ka rin ng email address na BLOGKOTO@pinoyblogosphere.net ;) ok po ba? or if you prefer to choose any other email address na iba sa subdomain na gusto nyo… pwede rin, just let us know ;)

 

Yun lang muna at maraming salamat in advance sa mga tutulong at susuporta. Mabuhay po kayo!

Google Phails

May 28, 2007

A friend of mine showed me how yahoo owns google. He was searching for “Google Official Logo” on google image search and on yahoo image search. Guess who gets it right? You’re freaking WRONG! Google’s a noob, compare their search results, Google and Yahoo. What does this imply you ask? Google Page Rank is bullshit! I apologize for the choice of words but it’s true and I’m pretty sure you’ll feel the same way too. You know what’s funny?
