happy happy day!!!!

This is a happy, happy day for me. First, when I got to school my classmate told me that our Board Exam was in June, but first, we've got to finish all our cases. I was happy but afraid, as well because I'm still not complete in the cases. But, I refuse to be saddened by this news. Hopefully, ma-schedule na ako for completion. Help me God.

The REAL reason why I am so happy this day is because my friends and I had a special bonding time today, which is matagal na naming di nagagawa. The initial plan was just to have a lunch after our classes. Then we roamed the mall to look for a restaurant that my friend ( Ate Cathy) wanted to see, then we looked at the booksale to see if there were any affordable magazines. Then, we saw this poster of P.S I Love You. And that was it..


I like this film!It's a light, romantic comedy. I cried a bit but I laughed a lot too. It was about a husband and a wife who was separated by death. The husband knowing that after his death his wife will be sad, he planned to have letters appear to her. The letter started appearing when she turned 30. The letters were things that the husband wanted his wife to do to be happy. It made his wife recall all the good memories that they shared. The reason why I also liked this film is that it showed IRELAND. The country in which I would like to go to, one day I hope. I love the scenarios!!

I love spending this day with my friends especially Ate Cathy and Tin-tin, they are very good friends of mine, and i will always remember this day. I really had fun and I hope that this will not be the last of our bonding.

pissed off!!!

At the start of the year I envisioned myself already to be studying for the board exam, passing it and working as a registered nurse in the month of August. Well, it might take long before I do those things. Why???? Because the freaking PRC just announced that the Board Exams in June will be moved to November, to give graduates like myself a lot of time to study. F%$k!!!!!!

Sa halip na makapag-move on na sa buhay ko at gawin ang mga dapat gawin now I'm stuck. The thing is I dont expect myself to study for the board exams in 9 months. I mean, I dont want to be a hypocrite but, jusme, naman, khit mgaral ako simula June, Im pretty sure na makakalimuatn ko din yun whenAugust comes.
2nd, I dont want to be a burden to my parents anymore. My tuition fee is expensive, compared to the tuition fees of my kuya and ate put together. So, I really want to make up to them by passing the board and working as a registered nurse. Because I know if I pass the board it will be a tremendous sigh of relief for all of us, especially for my parents. I've already told my mom about the announcement, and I also told her that while waiting for the Board in November, I would be willing to work, and she's fine with it.

Now, I feel that I have to work my ass of for half of the year!!!Work and save money, because I have to review in a review center and I would like to pay for it all by myself. And if I pass the board Im planning to get a Masteral's Degree. So I really have to work hard.

I just wish that things weren't so complicated now. Im really pressured by the announcement. I just hope that our freaking school wont hold us until November because of the board and because a lot of my batch mates, like me, have incomplete DR and OR cases, which is required by the PRC before taking the Board.

I hope we all complete our cases, before graduation, so we can find a job and work until August.God help me.

Welcome 2008

Happy New Year everyone!!!Welcome 2008!!!!WoW!!!I cant believe another year has passed, time sure flies. I need all the luck I can get this year. Why????? Because Im hopefully graduating this year, If I graduate I'll be taking the Board Exam this June and if I pass I will enter the REAL WORLD, meaning I have to work..work..work!!!!!

So my calendar for the first five months is already planned, and I already have my three goals this year.

My goals are:
1. To Graduate this March- dapat lang dahil I've been working my ass off..
2. Pass the Board Exams (1st take) - I dont settle for 2nd best
3. Have a job in a hospital as a REGISTERED NURSE!!!!!!

Im scared..really I am. This year its a make or break for me. I cant break it,so I really have to make it. There are no other options for me than those three missions I have envisioned. So please pray for me.

movie reviews on I am Legend and The Golden Compass

I was really disappointed with this movie. I guess, I expected more from Will Smith.The movie for me was "Lacking in Action" of course there was scenes in which Will Smith was being chased by hungry human zombies, but that's about it, nothing exciting.

As a lot of people know the scoop about the movie, Will Smith was the only man left in New York, he was a former colonel and also a scientist, who lost everything. His family and even his dog who was his only companion. Will Smith wanted to find a cure for the virus who transformed people into zombies, in which he did find, but like what I said that's about it.

The Golden Compass, was good. It's a trilogy so this being the first sequel was kinda ok for me
( like the Lord of The Ring: Fellowship of the Ring). Well, it wasn't anti-christ at all. I dont know why people are saying that but for me, it wasn't. The Magisterium is definetly not the Vatican. And I strongly believe that the Vatican is not capable of endangering children like the Magisterium. So I don't see what the fuss is all about, about the movie being anti-christ. Well, Im really hoping to see the 2nd sequel of the film . I hope it would be better.

my first bar experience

This is the drink called BJ, it was my first time to try it. But, naging favorite ko na. Dito na lasing ate ko.

This experience has long been over due.Hehehe. Finally, I was able to go to the bar with my sister. Actually, I wasn't that thrilled na pupunta kami ng bar. I was kinda worried na I wouldn't fit in. Well, to my surprise it was really fun and unforgettable. Aside from the fact that it was my first bar experience, unforgettable because my ate was the one who got drunk and vomited.HAHAHA.The real plan was that I dapat ako ang lalasingin.But, fortunately that didn't happen. Haay. Good thing was that when I was beginning to feel tipsy because of drinking margarita's and BJ, I stopped. I knew na if I would continue to drink I would really be wasted and I dont like that to happen. I like to be in control of things, and of course in the back of my mind I thought na whatever happens I should take care of my elder sister. Weird??Isn't it??Because she was the one who was supposed to be looking out for the both of us. Well, I guess that's just the way it is between the both of us. I was the strong one and she was the weak one.

Anyways, it turned out to be a really great experience. And I would really like for it to happen again.

The Guardian

I have always wanted to read a Nicholas Sparks novel, unfortunately, it was seemed too expensive for me,because, there were a lot of important things that I should spend my money, so I didn't bother to buy it.
Fortunately, I was lucky enough to come across this novel "The Guardian" in a booksale. And I tell you, usually they didn't really have books like this on a booksale. Desperately I hid it in the bookshelf and I promised my self that I would buy it the other day. When I came back, it was still there, and I was really happy that i hid it.
Findrs keepers...I told myself.

It was a amazing,heartwarming novel. It made me cry, that was unusual because, I never really cry on a novel,but this one changed everything.

Julie Barenson, was only 25 years old when Jim Barenson, her husband, had died because of a brain tumor. On Christmas Eve, Julie got a gift from somebody she didn't know. When she read the letter inside it, she learned that it was Jim, who sent her the gift. What was the gift Jim gave her? A Great Dane puppy. In Jim's letter, he said that he gave it to her so that she would have a companion and he promised that from wherever he was, he would always be watching her to keep her safe. She named the dog Singer.

After four years, Julie has finally moved on with her life, she was dating again. And Singer, was very protective at Julie, he would bark all the men Julie dated, except for one, Mike, Jim's bestfriend and who also has feelings for Julie. Julie would talk to Singer over things like he was a human being. And in a starnge way she knew that singer understood her.

And then Julie met Richard Franklin, a sophisticated engineer who treats her like a queen. Mike, thought that all hope was gone when he saw Julie and Richard kissed. But, Julie felt that there was no chemistry between her and Richard and decided to end it. Julie, finally got the nerve to ask Mike out after years of thinking that she might betray Jim in a way because she would go out with his bestfriend.

Julie thought that, Richard wouldn't bother her anymore, but she was wrong. Richard was stalking her. Richard Franklin, was a dangerous man, who would kill a person if thats the only way to get his way. Julie knew this and so did Mike and Singer.

After what happened to Julie's officemate Andrea ( who Richard almost killed), Julie decided to go out of town, until the investigation was finished. But even if she was in hiding with Mike, Singer and Pete ( a policeman) she knew that Richard would still find her.

She was right, Richard did find her and he waited for the right time to take her. But first, he would take care of Singer, because, he knew that there was something strange about Singer. He was able to poison Singer with a hamburger he put on a porch, this he knew would cause commotion and he would have the chance to go to the house.

He did it succesfully, he poisoned Singer, knock out Pete and shoot Mike. Julie was running for her life. She was the only one left. And Richard had here, and when Julie thought all hope was gone, out of sight, Singer came and jumped at Richard and bit him. But, Richard had a gun and shot Singer, just in time Jessica ( the detective) came and shoot Richard. Julie wept for Singer. Singer died, but it was miracle the veterinarion said to Julie that Singer was able to run and attack Richard even if he was poisoned because dogs would have died right away.

And so, they buried Singer in Julie's backyard. 2 months after the incident, Mike and Julie stayed together.Julie dreamt about Jim and Singer, they were walking way form her. She yelled at them and ran, but she didn't get near them. Jim looked at Julie and Singer barked at her and walked again. Julie woke up and took the letter of Jim tand read it. She realized that Jim kept his promise that he would always look out for her to keep her safe. And Singer was ot only her companion but also her Guardian.

happy birthday to me!!!!

Yep, I just celebrated my 20th birthday. It was a tiring day for me. It was a sunday, and supposedly I should be resting in our house, spending time with my family and being lazy because its my birthday. Unfortunately, that's not what happen. I woke up early 4:30am because I have a make up duty in the hospital, my duty was up to 6am-2pm That duty ate half of my birthday.
When I finally came home, my mom and my sister were already cooking my handa. I was happy because they didn't force me to help them, because they know that I was so tired. So I took a nap and woke up around 4pm. I went downstairs and ate shanghai. Even though my birthady was really simple I was still very happy. I like my birthday to be celebrated as simple as it is. Kami kami lang ng family ko.


Then after we all finished eating dinner, we watched Resident Evil 3, which was really good. I never watched the Resident Evil 1 & 2, so I was surprised that it was really a good movie. Good movie, good story & definitely good effects. I love the part when Alice( Milla Jovovich) killed the crows with her telekinetic abilities using fire. ASTIGG...I said to myself. I could use powers like that every once in a while.hahaha.


Eventhough Im getting old, Im overwhelmed with the experiences I've been through in my 20 years of life on Earth. Im happy that I was able to overcome all the obstacles God gave me. Without those obstacles I wouldn't be the person that I am today. So I face life head on. And may the good Lord guide me.

enchanted

Not all fairy tales do come true, because we are in the real world.
There is no perfect relationship in this world because like all things people change..

And there is no happily ever after...

Those are the lessons that I learned from watching the movie Enchanted. It's a great movie. like all girls I think all of us wants our prince charming to come and we will live happily ever after. We all want that, but sometimes love hurts and the prince charming we thought is the perfect man, sometimes turns out to be a monster in disguise.

The story was great andthe cast was awesome. I love Mcdreamy. It's really funny and you're going to learn a lesson.

student days...

Well im really sorry that lately this past few weeks I wasn't able to blog. I guess I couldn't find any interesting thing to write. Well, nag umpisa na ang staffing namin, meaning that we would have our usual hospital duty but without any clinical instructor around. It's really scary, I now appreciate having CI's around to help me. Sigh... I can't move around in tha area because I fear na I would commit a mistake, andwell we are dealing with lives here and I cant afford to make that mistake.

Speaking of clinical duties, ang ganda ng schedule ko. My entire night life is completely ruined because 2-10 pm ang duty ko. Not to metion that on my birthday I will also have a duty. Happy birthday to me!!!

Well..I guess ganyan talaga ang student life. Anyways, a few months from now, ma-mimiss ko din yun.

rogue assasin

I really was surprised abouit this movie. I didn't expect that it would keep me on the edge of my seat. I love Jet Li, and after the movie FEARLESS I was afraid I would never see him again because it was said to be that it was his last martial arts film.

Well..surprise..surprise...

The movie revolves on Japans notorious gangsters the Triads and the Yakuza's. In the middle of it are two FBI agent, Jack Crawford ( Jason Statham) and Tom Lone (Terry Chen). After they have encountered the mysterious Rogue Assasin and actually believing that they killed him, Tom Lone and his family was killed brutally by Rogue, their home was set on fire. Jack, becomes obsessed in killing Rogue to avenge his partner and get even.
After three years of complete disapppearance, Jack discovers that Rogue was back because of his trademark bullets that was made of titanium. Rogue (Jet Li), incites a war between the Triads and Yakuza's for no apparent reasons.Rogue, made it appear that he was working for the Triad, and kills the son-like man in the Triad, through it all, Rogue convinced that it was done by the Yakuza's. So in a tea house the two gangsters battle it out.
Rogue, killed the leader of the Triad, Chang (John Lone), following the orders of the Yakuza's. But Chang had a wife and a daughter, who Rogue didn't kill, which was surprising because he was known to be a merciless killer. By not killing the wife and daughter of Chang, Rogue didn't follow the complete orders of the Yakuza.
Jack, found out that Rogue had a plastic surgery to change his face, by a help of the doctor who performed the surgery. Jack, fortunately got pictures of Rogue killing the Yakuza's assasin and assisting the wife and daughter of Chang to escape. He handed this pictures to Shiro, who was the Yakuza's Leader. Rougue, delivered the golden horses to Shiro, Shiro orders his men to torture Rogue and to let him tell where the wife and daughter of Chang were hiding, little that he know that the golden horses was fake and one of them was actually a bomb. Rogue killed Shiro's men and sets off the bomb. Shiro and Rogue was finally face to face with each other.

Here's the twist...

Shiro, was surprised that Rogue would betray him after all this years, and so he asked why he did this. Rogue said that it was because of a killing Shiro ordered. Shiro wondered and asked which of the many orders was Rogue talking about. It turned out that it was the killing of Tom Lone and his family. Rogue, said that Shiro should have left the wife and daughter of Tom live. Shiro, was confused and surprised on why Rogue would care about Tom Lone and his family. Rogue revealed that he was Tom Lone and the man that the police found in the burned house was actually the true Rogue. And that day when Rogue went to his house and killed his wife and daughter, he fought Rogue and shot it in the face, and burned their house. So that he could avenge his wife and daughter, and by taking the identity of Rogue.

Another twist...

Shiro also confessed that Jack ( Jason Statham) was working for the Yakuza and that he was the one who betrayed him.after learning this Rogue killed Shiro by beheading him and sending his head in a suitcase to his daughter in Japan. Meanwhile, the true Golden horses was sent to the wife and daughter of Chang, enclosed is a letter coming from Rogue that says "Start a new life"

Rogue then called Jack to set up a meeting with him once and for all. Jack brought a sniper man and went to the place Rogue said. There the two battles it out, and at one end when they were face to face with each other. Rogue revealed the truth to Jack. He said that he was his partner Tom Lone and that he survived and killed the real Rogue asssasin. He undergone a facial surgery so that he could fully take the real Rogue's identity and also avenge his wife and daughter. Jack apologizes to him and asks if he could forgive him , he said that he only knew that the Yakuza would teach Tom a lesson but not kill his wife and daughter. Lone then says that Tom Lone is dead and that he is now Rogue. The Sniper man attempted to shoot Rogue but Jack jumps in the way, and Rogue shots him in the back killing him.

I was really happy with the story. I really like stories with a twist. And I love Jet Li. Jet Li rules, I love the way he likes to experiment his character in every movie. He doen't like being typecasted as only the Good Guy. Which is really what makes a great actor.
