haaaay jetlag anu ba ‘to alas 4 na ng umaga gising pako. ‘nyeta talaga oh. as usual bored na naman, unproductive.

i always tell myself

"Bakit di ka nalang magbasa ng libro? Yung librong walang drawing ha, yung tipong di illustrated nang may matapos ka namang book kahit isa kasi simula noong matuto kang magbasa e kahit text book di mo binabasa"

syempre sinagot ko sarili ko

"E kasi tinatamad ako at saka di ako interesado, mas gusto ko pang magbasa sa harap ng laptop or pc kesa mag- flip ng pages ng libro. Ewan ko ba, nuknukan kasi ako ng kabagutan kaya eto.. haaaaay (buntong hininga for the nth time around)

minsan naiisip ko kung papasa ba ako sa NCLEX. kesyo mahirap daw, kesyo kelangan magbasa at mag- aral. tsk tsk, mukhang di iiral ang photographic memory ko sa NCLEX ah! kasi naman e, sino ba kasing may gustong mag NURSE ako. Pwede naman kasi akong mag aral d2 sa states tapos syempre pag graduate ko makakakuha naman ako ng trabaho, bakit kasi ngayon lang ako pinetition e di sana matagal na akong nakapag adjust di tulad ngayong gurang nako. Easy money kasi ang laging iniisip ng IBA JAN kaya eto no choice but NURSING.

well blessing narin ang pagiging Nurse (kuno) ko, syempre dun ako nakakita ng oso friends at may mga kaalaman din akong natutunan from nursing lalo na ang Reproductive System, Human Sexuality at Family Planning. dito ko rin nalaman na there’s no such thing as "pasma", "lihi" at di totoo yung kasabihang "wag kang uminom ng malamig baka sipunin or ubohin ka"

Kapag nagbubukas ako ng wallet lagi ko nakikita yung PRC License ko. Ang sabi dun:

Katherine Joy A. Chan - Registered Nurse Licence Number XXXXXX

pero para saan pa ba yang lisensyang yan e di ko naman magamit dito yan. HMP!

feeling ko nga di ako nurse e kasi nakalimutan ko na mga pinag aralan ko.

bukas pagkagising ko, same old day nanaman. may hang over pa ako ng pinas. sana magkawork na uli ako nang di naman ako mukmok galore d2.

buti nagdownload ako ng PBB Celebrity edition sa abs cbn now mapapanood ko pa si john pratts

till here try ko matulog… kung hindi  gawa uli ako ng blog, huling hirit para sa march.

Sana talaga tuloy na tuloy na yung hong kong namin nina mama this monday. yun e kung 100% wala na syang sakit, kasi naman till now nilalagnat pa sya. anyway, i just want her to experience how it feels like to be out of the country kahit na in a tight (very tight budget). I only have $2000 kaya naman mega tipid ako nowadays.

I’m really really trying to stretch the money and the time left w/ me. March na kasi akong nagsimulang lumabas coz i almost spent the entire Feb sa hospital kasi si mama nagkasakit at na-ERCP (Endoscopy Retrograde Cholangiopancretography) at ayun ubos ang supposed to be pang Hong Kong- Bangkok- Singapore namin, kaya eto hong kong nalang muna. Anyway ang importante maging stable sya bago ako bumalik sa New York dahil mukhang matatagalan pa ako bumalik uli dito sa Pilipinas.

EXCITED nako! Grabe sobra akong nahirapang magpa- book ng hotel accomodation lahat fully booked na kasi nga naman peek season na. Pero at least may nakuha ako from PAL na package tour at bukas babayaran ko na. Hopefully walang aberyang mangyari…

till here. baboosh!

dapat nasa feb post ko to pero dahil sa naputol na yung pinaghirapan kong ipakabit na landline, ayun.. wala din ako magamit pang dial up sa internet. at dahil narin most of my time here in phils e nasa hospital ako (may sakit kz si mama) wala narin akong time mag post. So here it is medyo late

I’m back!!! After 18 hours of travel and approximately 5 hours of waiting I’m back home. As expected, the warm climate welcomed me right after I stepped down Cathay Pacific last Feb 4. It was such an easy flight, thank God I have my diphenhydramine with me. And unlike my previous experience with PAL, this flight was more comfortable —no more lost baggage this time not to mention that I was promoted to business class of which until now I don’t know why. Changes? Uhhhhmmm, not that much, except for some billboards and lights along Roxas Boulevard, I find it tacky though.

I’m dead tired when I arrived home so there’s no more time to watch the evening news. Oh by the way, Ingrid gave me black forest cake which I devoured before sleeping. And the fat saga continues…

I can’t believe I woke up early the next day (6 am). Waking up before 12 noon is a miracle for me. Maybe I’m just excited.. hmmmm maybe jetlag? It’s 11 am when Ingrid came in the house. She had been my accomplice to my plans and also the one who convinceda.k.a. brainwashed me to come home J hehe. Then we went to Lester’s house… SURPRISE!!! (I wont elaborate anymore, sa amin nalang yun ng mga oso) Since it was SM West 3- day sale of course saan pa bang mall pupunta? Besides, that’s where I told Jef to meet Ingrid to get his so- called “package” from me (he’s clueless that I’m here in the Phils. hehe) and again… SURPRISE!!! He was shocked to death J Nagdadalawang isip pa kung ako talaga yung nakita nya. Oh well dadi ako nga ito.

Later that night we meet Raffy—Lester’s beau and dine out at Seafood Warf (Me, Ingrid, Les, Raffy and Jina). I’m so happy for Les, unfortunately we forgot to take pictures. Anyway nextime nalang. All I can say is that I’m happy for them, Raffy is so nice they complement each other, stunning couple. Then the next day, lunchdate with the OSO (me, Ingrid, lester and kuya bBri) at Oyster Boy tapos Star City after. Laugh galore talaga, haaaay yun din ang isa sa mga na miss ko. Tapos coffee break bago umuwi. Parang kelan lang, yung coffee break natin e doon pa sa mga coffee vendo machine sa mga hospital duty natin, kumita na talaga ang Nescafe sa atin.

On our way home, we passed the newly improved FEU. We can’t help but reminisce our good ol’ schooldays—toxic but happy. I’m planning to see my other friends this week sana but my mom was hospitalized and until now di pa sya ok. Hopefully next week.. I hope.. I hope..
