I fell in love with it at that instant so I ended up buying that one. So far, no regrets at all. I have owned a lot of phones before and by far, this is the BEST I’ve had. It has everything except for the copy button that N series has, and infrared. But other than that, I don’t think there’s anything more I could ask from this one. It’s more than I hoped for, lol. But to that person who stole my phone, I hope you burn in hell.

To some, they know that I’m a nursing graduate, but when I think about it now, do I really see myself working as a volunteer nurse? Probably for the next few months or so. Why did I say “volunteer” nurse? Simly because it’s close to being impossible for the newly graduates to be hired in a hospital. Well, I’m not generalizing it, some are just so good that they are hired immediately. I don’t know the real process how nurses are hired, but all I know is that we undergo training, a lot of training until we get hired. I’m hoping the same thing fate of those “so good” persons happen to me as well. I know I have to work hard, but how hard should I work for it? To make this long story short, I wish I have taken a different course. I wish I did.

I’ll let you know how it goes.

1. Work out. YES. haha. I haven’t experienced nor tried working out before but I promised my boyfriend and myself that I will reward myself with a flat abs. lol lol. When I was super skinny about almost 2 years ago, I have flat abs. Now that I gained a few pounds (which is really a positive things since I am underweight before), those few pounds are unfortunately stored in my tummy. lol. So now I have bilbil.

2. Find a job. This is something I really want to have but the board exam results will not be released until 2 months from now, I don’t want to be doing nothing. My and almost all my friends decided that we would work because some of us will not be provided with allowance anymore. Not me though, mom and dad are willing to give, lol. I just want to make something for myself already.

3. Fix the site. haha. Something I promised to do since last year still no changes. lol. Now I’m not busy, I might actually do something here to bring back the glory of luved.net. Like what it used to be before.

4. Pray. Just like what our pastor emphasized to us, Work like everything depends on you, and pray like everything depends to God.

So anyway, last April 30th was my me and my boyfriend’s 16th monthsary. He has totally forgotten that it was our monthsary, lol. But that’s fine.

I have an interesting story to share but I’ll probably post it when I have the time. Right now, I’m just really very sleepy. I just found a few interesting things I had to post here.

My boyfriend asked me before what part of the house is most important to me. I thought for a while and then I answered, it’s the bathroom and bedroom. So when we’re at the mall, I frequent appliance stores or home furniture stores and just see different styles and designs for my dream house. I found a good site that offers really good designs for bathroom accessories. Also, good design for showers, one of the most important part of any bathroom. Then the ideal standars, the design is very interesting, good and brings real beauty to your home, and bristan taps for those who are stylish and practical.

So anyway, what’s up with me?

First, I’m currently attending review classes for the upcoming Nursing Licensure Exam (NLE). Our class starts at 8am and ends at 5pm. But most of the time, we’ll have a make up class from the previous lessons we missed from 5pm-9pm, so that will be almost 13 hours! Great, isn’t it? At the end of the day, all that I can think of is “SLEEP!, I NEED SLEEP” lol. But I’m feeling so much enthusiasm in attending our review since I am highly motivated by the thought that this marks the end of my nursing student years and beginning of my journey as professional. Because of that, I get good grades from our pre-board exams, test questions (compilations of previous board exams), and of course, lots of faith to Him. I owe it all to Him.

So anyway, I have lots of plan for this site, really. I just have to deal with the review and Licensure Exam first before anything else. After that, it’s partayyy!!! LOL. I definitely need to have a social life. I’m confined with my boyfriend (most of the time) and 4 more close friends. That’s my social life. Being with 5 people, nothing more. I actually think I have a little fear with meeting new people. I’m not very outgoing (or atleast I think I’m not), and I’m a shy type (bf says I’m definitely NOT, lol). But will definitely be working on this site soon. SOON. lol.

Happy 3rd year anniversary to LUVED.NET!

So I am currently assigned to duty at NCMH (national center for mental health) at Mandaluyong, Philippines. At first, I didn’t expect it to be such a big place. It was 46.5 hectares, I believe. Walking is not an option, lol.

So anyway, let me start a few of my experiences.

First, one of the patients we have there have amoebiasis. His sister who visited her that day (her last visit was July of last year) asked him why he had amoebiasis, he answered, “kumakain ako ng ipis eh”. In english, “I eat cockroaches”. That patient wouldn’t eat foods being served to him. He’s very thin already. Some patients on that ward are even naked. They don’t have mattresses on their bed, so they sleep on the wooden bed.

Next, a patient who is at NCMH for 27 years now. He’s actually in a critical condition when we started our duty. Some attendants we’re even joking that we’re going to perform a post-mortem care that night.

Third, a patient talking to nobody. The first day, he was very unresponsive to verbal stimuli. He wasn’t even blinking, hehe. The next day, he’s shouting to nobody. He was restrained by the way.

There are a lot more patients in that ward. Most of them already abandoned by their families. These people will not be fully cured without enough emotional support. I hope we can gain more understanding of people with mental illness.

Here’s the story. Hindi ko kasi masyadong feel yung side ng family ko na yun. mga pinsan ko, hindi ko ka-close. Kapag may mga reunion na ganyan, nagkukulong ako sa kwarto kasi nga wala naman ako sasabihin din sa kanila… well that was until today.

Nagkakwentuhan narin kami ng mga pinsan ko. Ok naman sila. Siguro nawalan lang kami ng communication for a long time, kaya lagi ko iniisip na wala kaming common ground nung mga yun. You know, in the end nagustuhan ko din yung bonding namin. I wish magkaroon pa ng marami in the near future. Saka sa march-april eh ggraduate kami ng kuya ko kaya sinabi na ng dad ko may party, hehehe. Reunion ulet!

Here are some pics:

“There was no rush — no one expected me to run off and get married. I really don’t believe that you will love the same thing when you’re 20 as you do at 30. So that was my rule: before the age of 25, I would never get married. I feel like you have to get to know yourself, know what you want, spend some time by yourself, and be proud of who you are before you can share that with someone else.” –Source

The message was simple, yet it means a lot to me. I’m the type of person who rush things. Who always wanted to have what I want when I want it. The only moment I actually waited was when I did not rush into a new relationship right away, because I feel like I’m not ready for it and I promised myself, the next one will be worth it. And guess what? He is worth all the pain and the waiting. I love him so much. And hopefully in the next 50 years of our lives, I do have faith, that we’ll still be together. :lurve:

My birthday is coming soon! Just a mere 3 days from now. I’m so excited, lol. My friends are expecting me to treat them, unfortunately, I have my money set for more important things (like our anniversary :wide: ). I’d probably just treat them on before our graduation day.

btw, I had a PPD test to determine my exposure on TB, it’s negative. Yay!

Anyway, I have a lot of things to tell about. Let’s start with the most important.

First, it’s a really sad news that one of my batchmates recently passed away. Though I never knew her personally, nor saw her (maybe I did, I am just not aware of it), I just felt so much sadness. She is a graduating student like me too. She is a good person and a friend to other people. She is a daughter, a sister and someone else’s special person. Everything happened so quickly. One thing I realized from this tragedy is that you never really have a complete control over your life. No matter how much you care for it, things do happen. Everytime I would remember her, I’d cry. In my heart I felt sorrow. Wishing that things never really happened. She was so young, and maybe so full of life. But I believe God has better plans for each and everyone of us. So value life. While it’s still there. While you can still smile, hug, kiss and say i love you to the most important persons in your life. Do so, while you still have the time.

Right now, because of this, I just wanted to change the way I handle things. I wanted to do the best I can in everything. I don’t want to complain. I don’t want to judge other people. If there’s something not going right in my life, I try to make it a point that I’ll do something to make it work. She became an inspiration. Not just to me, but to other people as well. I’ll pray for her soul.
