It's been a long time

Since my last blog post that is. I've just been busy. My scheds really full. Have I mentioned that I started working already? As a nurse in the hospital. Oh hell yeah! As a reliever. And sometimes a reliever's schedule is not that friendly. At times i go on duty 6 straight days in a week.
And because of this so called work, I wasn't able to go with my family in their holy week vacation. As I've mentioned before, every year we really make sure that we go somewhere during this time of the year just to unwind and to destress. Coz that's the only time of the year when everyone is free. But now I guess everyone wouldn't be free anymore. Well there would be more trips and family affairs I would be missing. That's part of a nurse's life. Till next time. God speed.

Finally.

For some time, I really felt down. I lost drive and determination. It's like my life is heading nowhere. I don't know what to do. And it's as if nobody wanted me. I've risked on some things but to no avail.
And just a couple of days ago, it came to my knowledge that few of my batchmates during training were hired and started working already. Some were offered further training in the ICU. I felt like a big loser. Tweeted "I've got a big L on my fohead". I even questioned God why. Why nobody would take me. Why I don't get a positive feedback. O yeah. Self esteem down the drain again.
And just yesterday, I received a call. SPH called and asked if I would want to work for them. Oh hell yeah. Nope, that's not what I answered to the caller. Yeeeeees ma'am. Hehe
I will surely grab this opportunity by the neck. And will surely do my best. God definitely hav plans for me. And it will all happen in perfect timing -- in God's time.
God speed.

24

Yup, this is a very late birthday post. Just recently got this pic from Tomas. Well, enough of the excuses. And yup, I am 24. Twenty four. Bentekwatro. Dalawamput apat. Kaksikymmentanelja. Gaaaaah!
Wasn't really planning anything special for that day. Just stay home in a sulk. But then a few hours before my birthday ends I realized that I was so lucky on my 23rd year of being alive. So I must go and celebrate it. I travelled. I worked. Got a business. Laughed. Cried. Loved. Hurt. So many blessings came in that year.
And so I texted Tomas and he treated me to some fancy Thai resto. Boooyah! (hope you can read this angkol Tomas.)
Yup, God was so generous to me last year. Thanks God. I'm ready for some more adventures this 2010. God speed y'all.

Shania and dad

Yesterday, the whole family watched American Idol. And with Paula Abdul out, they had country singer Shania Twain as guest judge.

And dad was wondering why Shania was alone.
And were like, "It's Twain dad, not TWIN".

My parents while watching tv featuring stunts gone wild:

Mama: ibalhin na papa oi. Ngano tan-aw man ka anang mga nangapatay ug nangabalian.

Papa: mga naka-survive man na sila...

Mama: nakasurvive nga nabalian!

Papa: mga professional stuntmen man na sila.

Tedpen: samoka ninyo oi!
