i love the way she drove the cars….

 

i love the choreography of the action scenes…

 

i think i want to watch it again hehe….

the morning after the game

last saturday, i was able to smash again (after almost two years of not being able to play badminton).  the feeling was so good.  i realized i really did miss the game.   medyo hesitant and awkward pa ang first few moves ko.  but eventually, i was able to adjust and enjoy the game. mukha nga daw di naman ako kinalawang masyado eh kse i was able to win pa rin (magaling lang siguro partner ko hehe).

 

we started playing at around 5:15 pm and we ended our last game at around 10:45 pm.  i was able to play 12 sets.  i was really surprised na tumagal ako ng ganun after being absent in the court for so long.  i guess, i was really feeling a lot lighter compared to before.  pano ba naman even if addict ako sa game dati, yung post badminton dinner ang matindi hehe.  kaya di rin talaga ako naglose weight before.  tapos starbucks pa kami until early morning kaya naman talagang di rin ako pumayat dati.

 

the funny thing was, i chose to change shoes on a bench near our court. dinadaan-daanan  lang ako ng mga kasama ko.  later on, they realized na ako pala yun.  lahat sila nagulat at bigla daw ako nabuhay.  aside from that, they all commented i looked different (younger and thinner nga daw compared to two years ago).  syempre ang haba ng hair ko hehe.

 

i promised i’ll be joining them again next saturday.  tapos yung gay professor ko eh sasama din daw sa amin.  he was so excited that he even foned me just to inform me that he already bought a new outfit for our saturday game hehe.

 

i miss sweating that much… sarap ng feeling!

 

i love playing bad again

i’ll be bad again

after more than a year, i’ll be playing badminton again.  marunong pa kaya ako? hehe  nagtatampo na nga badminton group ko kasi simula daw nagnursing ako, kinalimutan ko na ang saturday games namin.  but i promised that i’ll try to get back to the circle again pag medyo libre na ang oras.  and by this time, wala na akong maibigay na excuse pa para hindi magsmash uli.

 

dati, super addict ako sa badminton.  dumadayo kung saan saan para lang sumali sa mga competition.  nakakamiss din yung rush when you’re playing competitive badminton.  pero ngayon malamang kinakalawang na ako.  kaya eto, isang coleman na extra joss ang baon ko later.

 

yung mga badminton skirts ko, ginagamit ko na lang pang malling.  pero at long last, magagamit ko na sila ulit sa court.  yung 3 raketa ko (nabalian ako ng isang raketa eh) mahahawakan ko na ulit  yung mga badminton shoes ko, aapak na ulit sa taraflex.

 

i’m so excited. i’ll be playing later 5pm onwards (usually hanggang 10-11pm kami sa court).  good luck talaga sa akin kung makabangon ako bukas dahil mukhang papagapangin ako ng mga kalaro ko later.  mga halimaw pa naman sa court ang mga yun. lagot talaga ako mamaya hehe.

 

yup, i’ll be bad again *wink wink*

updates, updates

after so long, ngayon na lang ulit nakapag blog.  sobrang hectic ng sched namin sa review na may mga times na 2 weeks straight eh wala kaming off.  may mga days pa na inaabot kami ng lagpas 9pm para lang mahabol ang lahat ng dapat ma-tackle.

 

di man ako nakakadalaw sa sarili kong blog.  salamat pa rin sa mga patuloy na bumibisita at nag-iiwan ng comment.  pag nakahanap naman ako ng time, siguradong mag-uupdate ako.  at sa mga nagcomment, pasensya na kung hindi ko agad masagot ha.  sana hindi kayo magsawang magcomment 

 

pagdating sa lovelife, wala pa akong dapat iupdate.  masyado pang “masalimuot” hehe.  pero nakakataba ng puso na kahit papaano ay may mga tao pa ring nagtatangka.  malamang malabo lang talaga ang mga mata nila o di kaya may mga psychosis hehe.

 

with regards to my review experience, okay naman.  maraming mga inputs ang magagamit ko pag dating ng araw.  sa mga classmates ko naman sa review, mababait naman sila.  wala namang nangangagat.  marami rin akong new found friends.  mga ka-batch ko sa school kaso ngayon ko lang din nakasama at mas nakilala.  minsan, mukha na nga akong muse lalo na pag ako lang ang nakaksama nilang girl pag uwian na.  pero take note, kahit mukha silang mga cool boys, grabe naman sa sipag mag-aral.  daig pa ako!

 

nung isang araw, nagpasya kaming bumisita sa sto. domingo church.  nandun kasi ang lady of manaoag.  syempre nag offer ako ng prayer.  di na ako humiling ng kung ano pa.  basta sinabi ko na lang sa kanya na kung ano ang plano nya para sa akin, i will accept it.

 

supposed to be, pupunta kami ng baclaran today after our exam.  kaso yung mga boys na kasama ko eh may exam pa pala na hindi nila na take before.  kaya eto, uwi na lang muna ako para makapag pahinga kse di ko kaya maghintay sa kanila for their 200 item exam.  next time na lang siguro namin planuhin ang pagtirik ng kandila sa baclaran.

 

sa mga panahon ngayon, i would need all the help i could get.  lalo na spiritually.  hindi lang dahil sa papalapit na board exam.  pati na rin for my emotional, psychological and financial stability.

 

ewan ko nga ba.  religious naman ako dati lalo na at galing ako sa pagpapalaki ng mga madre at pari na dominican at thomasian.  pero simula ng pumasok ako sa up, medyo nabawasan na.

 

nagdarasal pa rin naman ako ngayon, pero more of personal dialogue with Him ang ginagawa ko.  alam ko it’s not enough. 

 

hay naku.  my time is almost up.  halo-halo na ang laman ng entry na to.  halata bang gutom na? di pa ako nag-lunch and it’s past 2pm na.  will just grab a quick bite, then shower, then hit the books again.

 

life!!!

 

 

 

 

something boring gets exciting

medical-surgical nursing, communicable diseases and pharmacology are some of the most serious subjects that we have to review.  they’re really, really difficult (well, based on my experience).

 

however, they’re really interesting and very challenging.  lalo na if the lecturer is one cool and cute doctor hehe.  a bojo molina look-alike, he’s really good.  nakaka-inspire tuloy mag-aral.  nakakahiya kasi if he poses a question tapos di ko masagot.  i almost didn’t believe it when he called me by my nickname.  sa dami namin eh kilala pala nya ako kung ganyan lahat ng prof,  baka magmed school pa ako nyan (asa pa!).  kaso taken na eh.  kaya hanggang tingin na lang kami

 

well, at least now, i somehow look forward to these challenging subjects.  di katulad dati na parang ang sarap tulugan.  lalo na ngayon na even sundays we have a review.  pati nga sa labor day eh may review pa din.  pero ok lang ganun talaga.  sakripisyo to the max!

 

yeah, something boring can really get exciting given a very inspiring mentor. sa panahon ngayon, every little reason to be inspired to study is greatly appreciated.

me in a promo material???

the other day, i was approached by the administrative officer of the review center. i thought it was something to do with my performance during the review.

i was surprised when she asked me if it’s okay for my picture to be included in our tarpaulin ad to put outside their building and the corner along espana. my reaction was, “mam, baka wala na mag-enroll sa review center nyo pag mukha ko makikita nila dyan. at saka di pa nga ako pumapasa ng board exams.”

posting my picture in my blog and friendster was okay. but being in a marketing ad to be posted in the “real” world was a bit too much for me. parang di yata kaya ng powers ko yun hehe. but with much persuasion from the staff and the lecturers, pumayag na rin ako. pero sa isang kundisyon… mangdadamay… este, magsasama ako ng mga classmates ko.

hence, 4 of us will be included in the photo op on monday along with a few more center-based reviewees. okay na yun na marami kesa naman mukha ko lang ang nandun… pag ganun baka maningil na ako ng talent fee hehe.

i hope that this is a sign that i will soon become an RN

extra joss and cobra drink

i’m a big fan of extra joss.

it started way back when i was still playing competitive badminton. although, i’m not into any type of recreation right now, my thing for extra joss continued.

all throughout my nursing studies, i would always have a cold preparation ready especially when i have exams. aside from the boost of energy, i really love the taste.

recently, i was introduced by a classmate to cobra energy drink. it was during our review class break and she was drinking this yellow-orange stuff. the fruity scent was overwhelming.

out of curiousity, i tried one. it was much sweeter than extra joss and the energy kick was also higher. i was wide awake during our 14 hours of review. when i got back to the condo, i wasn’t hungry nor sleepy. i just had an apple and was not very tired.

i know that energy drinks are not really good if taken too frequently. sabi nga, everything in moderation dapat. but nowadays, the extra energy boost is a precious luxury for me.

some experience palpitations and being jittery. as for me, it made me stay up longer and not very hungry at all.

i don’t advice people to get hooked on these things. but when the need arises, it’s very much available.

a friend commented, dapat daw hindi cobra drink ang tawag… the most appropriate term daw is “anaconda”
