My Christmas Lover

It all started last night when my charms didn’t work for my Christmas Lovah. I was making “pa-cute” at him over the phone last night, (cheesy but I can be a little baduy when I miss someone so bad) I thought I made it clear how much I miss him and that I’m starting to hate him for making me miss him this much. (This is all his fault! I so hate him!)

Our conversation pretty much went well; he said he was still at work and that his day wasn’t toxic, blah blah blah, Until he gave a me a what the h*ll answer to a supposedly “lambing” hirit.

“I miss you”

“kakakita lang natin recently ah, nung saturday?”

What the h*ll, right? Hello?! Tuesday na ngayon! You didn’t bother to text me or to wish me luck for my finals nung Sunday or nung Monday. A text would be fine, really. I’m not asking him to make me his top priority; I just wish I pass by his thoughts at least once a day or the most, once a day.

Here’s another winner, After our 3 minute conversation over the phone, I texted him if he would still pass by my place, he didn’t reply. FYI, village namin magkatabi lang.

This is the problem with girls, everything’s already in front of them but they don’t seem to get it. Our thing would not work because he won’t let it. C’mon! If he wanted to, he would make an effort, knowing him, he is that type. He can make you feel SPECIAL if he wanted to. I heard his stories.

Maybe I’m just pushing too much. I want this to work out though but if it’s just a one way street, walana patutunguhan. He’s just not into me. Period. Or maybe he is, but for other reasons.

It’s just ironic how a guy, who is your-friend-but-doesn’t-care-much-for-you, can easily take all your problems and worries in just a snap. As I’ve mentioned in one of my previous entries, because of him, I’ve started to live life again, I never knew life could be this better. Yes, I am and I feel very different when I’m with him. Our Christmas love affair would be remembered and, probably, laughed at. (because of its history and how it all started, haha! I just hope he doesn’t get a chance to access my new site, oh well, who the h*ll would read this?)

I don’t hate him. He’s just being a guy.

Honestly, I’m thankful cause he just proved my theory on men.

I just didn’t expect that he’s the one who’s gonna prove my own theory.

Life goes on, I’ve been through worse.

He made me happy, what more could I ask for?

I Have A Terrible Site

I don’t know how everything works here at blogspot. I don’t know how to make my own template, edit my page; I don’t even know what RSS is! Rubbish!

This is why I hate technology! Everything changes in just a blink of the eye! I used to blog at multiply.com, everything’s simpler there, I gather my thoughts, write them down and I just add colors and to the words or sentences that needs emphasis. Done! My blog is done, that simple.

Due the he advent of modern technology and to growing population of bloggers, a lot has been added to the art of blogging, and sadly, I couldn’t keep up any longer.

Bano talaga ng site ko. Now, I’m starting to feel the “pressure”, the pressure of writing about more sensible stuff because if I don’t, nobody will visit my site!

A bad site layout and non sensible blog entries is not a good combination. Hay nako, if you have both, darling, you’re just polluting the internet. And c’mon, if you’re gonna write, write something enriching, informative, humorous or something that a lot of people can learn from.

Well, it was just a thought. How the internet world would be a better place if everyone would write something intellectual or something that came out from their brains. You know what I’m saying – An internet world with LESS porn. That would be a good one.

Nursing For Greener Pastures

They are everywhere! For crying out loud! Nursing students are everywhere! You go to a mall, you see a bunch of them walking, laughing and giggling at every corner! Puhleeze! Aren’t they suppose to be studying? You’re driving on your way home and you suddenly have to hit the brakes because a student wearing a white uniform didn’t see your car coming. Crap Nursing students! You guys are everywhere, polluting the world with white uniforms!

For everyone’s information, I am also a nursing student. I love my course, well not love “love” but I learned to love it over the past years. I never imagined myself taking up nursing and wearing an all white uniform, white blouse, white skirt, white shoes, with cap, WITH WHITE PANTY HOSE STOCKINGS! Who wears that kind of stuff?

I remember my niece Andy, (Tita Joan’s Eldest daughter), 4 years ago, I modeled my first newly sewed nursing uniform fresh from the seamstress in front of my family at dinner time. While I was too busy walking at the cat walk, doing my nursing pose (oh! don’t try to imagine it!) and receiving plastic comments from my parents (they have to do that so that I wouldn’t be discouraged from taking the course) my niece Andy suddenly blurted out, “Ate Camille, you look like a yaya.” With a scrutinizing look on her face, can you imagine how a 5 year old can humiliate you just by being honest? Kids now-a-days.

Thank you Andy, your comment is highly appreciated. Way to go girl!

So, why is everyone studying nursing? Possibly for the same reason as mine.

Dollars, dollars dollars. I’m sorry, but money does make the world go round. I took up Nursing because I realized NAPAKAHIRAP NG BUHAY SA PILIPINAS. So I took the easy way out, let me rephrase it, I took the i-thought-easy-way-out. Jeez, it’s not easy taking up Nursing!

First, I have to forget what course I would really want to take up. So in other words, I have to kill my dream. I have to put it to trash and possibly start a new one. It works though. I don’t know what I wanted 4 years ago. Now, when people ask me, I say with a proud face, I want to become a Doctor, a surgeon to be exact. I’m just taking up Nursing as a pre med. SOSYAL!

Second, I have to endure the frustrated look at other people’s face when they say “akala ko sa Ateneo ka nagaaral, sa FEU pala” OH MY GOD TALAGA! Enough enough. Very nostalgic.

Third, I.have to S-T-U-D-Y! damn, Pharmacology and Microbiology! Those are the two subjects that I struggled to pass! How am I supposed to memorize generic names of medicines and names of microbes if I don’t even know how to pronounce them! Oh and don’t you dare forget how hard it is to spell them!

Fourth, ANG GASTOS MAGNURSING. Ang mahal ng tuition fee, books, uniforms (mind you, my lecture uniform, duty uniform, scrub suit, and sa ibang schools pagdating ng fourth year magpapalit kayo ng uniform, may P.E uniform pa pala.), mga fee ng kung ano ano, capping, seminars, COPAR, plus a whole lot more. MIND YOU may fee pa ang board exams. At hindi lang isa ang test na kailangan mong i-take

Fifth, BOARD EXAMSSSSS, Local Boards, NCLEX, CGFNS, IELTS, sige lang, tell me if you can handle the pressure.

If you think nursing is your key to greener pastures, Think again! It may just make your life miserable! Nursing is not the easy way to become rich. It requires hardwork, dedication and a heart. If you don’t take it seriously, nagtatapon ka lang ng pera. You have to take it seriously for you to pass the board EXAMSSSS. If you don’t pass it, sayang lang ang pagaaral mo ng apat na taon dahil diploma lang ang hawak mo – Wala kang lisensya. Grabe, if only I can put into words the pressure that I am feeling right now. It’s unexplainable. It’s nerve wrecking. No wonder why not all graduates of my course didn’t end up as a successful registered nurse.

You have to want it so bad for you to become successful. You don’t have to waste time on nonsense things, like hanging out at the mall or spending the whole day at a computer shop playing Dota. You have to read, read and read. You have to stay up all night for a report. You have to study weeks before an exam just for you to get a passing mark. You have to spend hours inside the library for research. Oh! and the clinical rotations! Deadly. (There would be definitely a new blog for that; right now I’m talking about the theoretical hardships of Nursing.)

I hope after writing this, mababawasan na ang mga nakaputing nakatambay sa mga mall. Let’s help produce quality nurses. We may JUST be nurses in the eyes of other people but they don’t know how hard and vital our work is. We care, we nurture and we touch lives.

Student Nurses, let’s take our course seriously. We handle lives – enough said.
