2012


I'm on a standstill. I feel so lost - I have lost myself into oblivion and I don't know if I can find myself again. All I see is darkness - I feel weak and hopeless. When will this agony end? 

 I want to be thankful for the blessings I have received, but the pain and challenges over shadows all the good things that are happening to me. 

 I feel like there's a dark cloud above me that just won't go away. It just sits there and I think it waits for me to feel really down and rain will just pour and wash way everything that I have left - my strength, hope, determination... everything.

 This feeling is killing me. When will the sun shine again? I want to quit. I can't quit. I wish I was a kid again, so I won't have to worry about grown up stuff. Growing up is hard, no one told me it is going to be easy in the first place. Who was I kidding? 

 I have to get out of this rut and be my strong, sure self again. This feeling is tiring. 

 I need that little glimmer of hope. I can't mask my sadness any longer.

Medical Examination at SLMCEC

November 9-10, 2009 This will be a blow by blow account of my medical exam that took place last week. If you want to be first in line, you can be there as early as 3am, but I went there at 5am because I wanted to make sure that I am safe while taking the exam and I don't want to wait in line for 2-3 hours. It was a good move, since they were already accepting applicants at 5am and I got in around 5:20am and I was the 54th applicant of the day. Make sure to have the following ready: 1. Passport 2. 4 2x2 visa pictures (they will only take 3 though, but I brought 4 since that's their requirement) 3. Original and photocopy of approval letter from the embassy 4. Print out of your interview schedule 5. Black ballpoint pen 6. Payment (213.35 - exchange rate is at 48) Flow chart: 1. At 5:30 I already got in and filled out the Patient Data Sheet form. Memorize your fiance's address and phone number or at least have a copy of it. 2. The guard called us up for the digital picture taki

I'm not so evil after all

" I never got the chance to be your trainee, but I heard a lot of good things about you Ms. Dee." Reading this post from someone I barely even know made my heart flutter. I know that I have been totally brutal with my trainees when I was still working as a trainer back home 'coz I want them to be excellent in their field. I know I was hated by many 'coz I don't know how to kiss people's asses. I even almost got in trouble with our big boss when I was only passing a few people during interviews. A lot of people were mad at me 'coz of my unbelievable standards. A lot of times it did affect me and all I wanted was to please everyone, but I was also pushed by my one of my supervisors not to lower my standards. I got reprimanded for passing a few people during interviews by our big boss, and I got reprimanded by my direct supervisor for passing a lot of trainees during my class. I was totally confused when I was starting up in my new field. But time, experience

Free entertainment at 1pm

I live in a peaceful community (unless our neighbor upstairs puts on his douche acts again) so any sound outside can be heard from our apartment. At 1pm today, I had free entertainment that I’ve never expected. I was about to take a nap when I heard a weird noise outside. So I took a peek and voila! My neighbor was rapping and singing (with his earphones on) with a cold one on his right hand. This was under 90++ degrees! He was just rockin’ it and feeling his song ‘coz from my viewpoint, I can see him close his eyes and moving his left hand, as if he’s scratching an LP. He not only faced one direction, but he would turn around like he had to face all his fans cheering while he’s jamming to his song. I just felt the need to document it and find a way to fit my camera lens into our blinds without being noticed by our neighbor. It lasted for 5 mins or so and he was just feeling his song so much that he never cared where he was singing it. He only stopped and went inside his apart
