back to school

we are, once again, assigned in the operating room. :) i hope they would keep assigning us there. i assisted in a minor operation. hrmm.. it was just a simple excisions biopsy.

i miss my groupmates. sir deris, sir weejay and sir jek were talking about naughty stuff and i imagined, if ate rizza, ate aimee and the boys were there, it would ba riot! i'm sure, hihirit nanaman ng kakaiba yung mga yun.

we'll get used to our new groupmates. they're ok.

Eastwood with family

had a nice lunch at Eastwood city at our cousins' condo. my tita cooked the viand... errr... i forgot what it was called. pork afritada, i think. it's not salty but very tasty.

played with my nephew, miggy boy, again. he's sooo cute! i think he has grown a little bit from the time i saw him last.

went mass too... i thought of blogging about the sermon; but i my head is quite unorganized right now.

ok later.

"may uod ang aking utak"

i watched a ballet performance yesterday called "tales of the manuvu". i didn't read about what a manuvu is. i had no background of what i was watching. but i still enjoyed. Ballet philippines did an amazing job, as always! :)

i think the story was about the creation of man and woman, like "adam and eve" or "malakas at si maganda". i'm going to read about it later.

i was 20 minutes late. hrmph. badtrip! i missed the 1st half of the "front act"...but at least i was able to watch the rest of the show. it was beautiful!
after the show, connie, dianna and I fought our way in the crowd to have our pictures taken with the performers! they were nice too. :)

so far so good.

i had my hair chopped off! while the hair stylist was doing his thing, i wanted to scream and shout, "STOP!" but, well.... it was done... it'll grow back...
for the past few days, i have been spending my vacation pretty well. i'm trying to stay away from the computer as much as possible since it'll take up my precious free time. hahaha. ok so, what have i been doing?
the amusement park: last Sunday, my friends and i went to Enchanted Kingdom. i've been there a couple of times with different sets of friends/ family. yep. it was fun! unfortunately, all the rides were not available. thank goodness, the space shuttle (the big roller coaster) was closed. i'm sure, they'd force me to ride it if it was open.
italian film trip: haha! i love watching free films at the mall. :D watching it made me learn more about the italian lifestyle/culture. their language sounds like spanish.

food trip: going to the mall entails eating in nice places. since i'm on vacation, what the heck, i'd eat my heart out! frozen yogurts are a hit, i noticed. i tried them with strawberry, mangoes and almond chips. WOW! it was sooo nice! i loooove the tangy flavor and the sweetness of the fruits. :). i also particularly enjoyed the beef salipicado with mushrooms @ oliver's sandwich. it's a sandwich store like subway, but they also sell rice meals. nice nice! TORTILLAS w/ cheese, mayonnaise and ground beef ----> a very good companion while falling in line for the movie. haha.
sound trip: i have been listening to all sorts of music now. i try to explore a wide array of sounds, not just world beat. :)

meeting up old friends and getting to know new ones. :) it was fun spending time with my schoolmates and friends @ EK. Frankie and i watched an italian film the other day. he's like my movie and artsy fartsy buddy. missed hanging out with him. had a great time! We also met Sophia, a new friend we met while falling in line for the italian movie. :) she taught us stuff about being online using the cellphone. interesting! haha. i'm not really a techie person. it's nice to talk to someone like her. Burn, a friend and a bandmate (back in the days of BP.LOL) is currently online all the time. so i get to talk to him a lot. i missed talking to him too. he's a very funny guy. i wish to talk with the other BP boys. i'm looking forward to meeting more and more friends before i hit the books again. :)

the fantastic 4: i couldn't help myself from listening to the 4 women in their mid-30's talking about their lives. one of them was talking about her married life, i think, dealing with her husband about having a baby after 3 years... while sitting at the other table, eating my frozen yogurt, i imagine myself, ert, ayi and mygz talking the same thing or anything under the sun, looking all grown up like them.. (i mean looking mid-30ish)... gosh, i miss them! i miss the girl bonding. i wish them well. :)
Family: tita turing called up yesterday. it was nice talking to her and knowing how she is. later, i'm going to sta cruz to visit my Lola estay. :) on sunday, ate and i will be having lunch with tita tessie and family. :)

UPCOMING: i opt to watch tales of the manuvu, a ballet which will be performed by the ballet philippines. i have not watched performances for a while. :) i don't want to get too excited. hehe. there are other stuff i wanted to do like surfing in zambales or go to the zoo and do photoshooting; but i dunno if they're doable. not much time left. hrmph.

p.s. yesterday, i bought a new garment, a casual dress. hehe! :)

Used to dream of being a millionaire, without a care
But if I’m seeing my dreams and you aren’t there
’cause it’s over
That just wont be fair, darling.
I’d rather be a poor woman living on the street,
No food to eat
’cause I don’t want no pie if I have to cry
’cause it’s over
When you said goodbye
All at once
I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Now that you’re gone
From above,
Seems I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Since you’re gone
Now I see myself through different eyes

It’s no surprise
But being alone would make you realize, when it’s over
All in love is fair

I shoulda been there, I shoulda been there, I shoulda shoulda
All at once
I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Now that you’re gone
From above,
Seems I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Since you’re gone
I know I pushed you away
What can I do that would save our love
Take these material things
They don’t mean nothing
Its you that I want
All at once
I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Now that you’re gone
From above,
Seems I had it all
But it doesn’t mean anything
Since you’re gone

another typhoon coming

i've been talking about typhoons all the time in my blog... they say, this one called PEPENG is a super typhoon (as big as Katrina hurricane). i wish it would go away... arggh...

today, we didn't have formal classes. rather we had a skills fair for the nursing week. it was pretty interesting. i was assigned to do the IV therapy -piggyback administration of meds. haha... why is it piggyback? it's a pretty funny word. hahaha...
NGT
CPR
now, as i am blogging, i'm eating spaghetti my sister brought me from her friend's (leo) birthday party. :) Happy birthday Leo! :) thanks for the spag. :)

Pepeng is here... it's getting windy outside.... not so much as Ondoy though...
