super extended vacation!

as it turns out, i don't have classes the entire week. my sked was changed. originally, i was supposed to have hospital duty mon-wed & sat, and lecture thurs-fri. our entire batch was crammed into one section, meaning all of us would have duty mon-wed, then we choose between sat or sun for our other duty, then lecture on thurs-fri for those who didnt take it last summer....

last minute, our fabulous school decided that it would be hard and totally unwise to cram us all into that sked since sayang naman ung thur-sat rotation. so yesterday, i went to school, supposedly for our class.. turns out i was assigned to the new section (i actually was requesting for that before pa, but dean told me someone had to make a formal proposal for it, but since i was too tamad for something like that, i settled for the original sked)

which means i went to school para tumunganga! crazy nga since i slept around 4am na the night/morning before.. tpos i woke up to mamoi's text ng 10 am.. tpos gigi texted me ren saying that she's in school na. originally, we were planning to meet at 1pm.. but she told me to take a bath na and go to school to meet them. and me, being the super masunurin girl that i am took a bath agad.

so when i got to school, i was just following them around coz i really had no business there. they were changing skeds, adding subjects and whatever.. i had nothing to do.. so nanggulo na lng ako.. i saw my sked na.. but i totally forgot. actually, i just checked who my groupmates will be. i dont know most of them since they're from the other section... but im happy-happy-glad-glad since im groupmates with my besty/shoti! hehehe :) and carlo! may kukulitin nanaman ako sa duty! yey!

so there... oh, my sked now?
mon&tues, 5-9 pm: med surg lecture
wed: IM OFF! my free day!
thurs-sat: ncm 102 duty
sun: ncm 103 duty (11 or 12 hours straight!)

how fun, ryt? RIP social life!

goodbye to H2's monthly get together... sorry guys, i can't organize those anymore since hindi ren naman ako available.. kayo na bahala! just dont forget na blockmate nyo ako.. we shared 4 wonderful years together!

and spontaneous SAWI weekend getaways? bye bye! i know hindi ako mashadong nakakasama since before coz something always comes up.. pero now, tlagang hindi na ako makakasama kse ill be in the hospital taking pictures of my patients and eating... :(

haaaaayy... its gonna be tiring and all... but i gotta do what i gotta do ryt? for a brighter future!

i just realized that im graduating (again! and i havent gotten my ateneo diploma yet!) next year... which means i have to seriously think about what im gonna do after that. this is so unlike graduating from ateneo. then, i didnt have to think about what i was gonna do after college. i just assumed that id be applying in some bank/big company or whatever here in the philippines...

then i found myself working in an interior design place in west hollywood, then at a tela importer and supplier in downtown LA, then moving to a bags manufacturer still in downtown LA, then finally in a law office in mid-wilshire still in LA...

then after 3-4 months, i was buying myself a return ticket...

and a week after, i was boarding that plane home... feeling excited but unsure...

then 2 days later i was inquiring in kester... taking the entrance exam that afternoon... and enrolling the next day!

now, 1 1/2 years after, im faced with the dilemma of planning my future.. seriously planning my future. and for someone who isn't used to making definite long term plans, this is quite hard.

i mean, iv a general idea of what i want to do... i see myself working as a nurse in some hospital (but preferably a nursing home actually) in another country for the next 5, 10 years max.

what that "another country" is, im not sure. when i was starting pa lng sa nursing, i was sure i was going back to LA after i graduate. then before my first sem back as a student ended, i decided that i want to work in australia. now, im not sure. 1st choice remains to be aussie, but then i haven't actually studied that yet (i mean, applying, the hiring process, moving there and what that entails, etc etc...) moving back to LA seems much easier, but then again, i don't know!

oh gosh, im toooooo young to think about this! im supposed to be thinking about what ill eat next lang e... im hungry AGAIN (i had lunch an hour ago!) & im craving for siopai (the one i get sa gh promenade, the chinese place between gonuts donuts and mexicali... yum yum! sobrang miss ko na un! just last year, i eat that like 3-4 times a week whenever we have our perse but i have to charge sessions in cbtl there!)

haaaaay, im hungry and bored... but iv nothing to eat here except chocolates.. and iv eaten 2 already, another one and ill have sugar drop na!

yeah, let me complain now.. coz starting next week, i won't have to complain about this anymore!
