Today’s the second to the last day of my clinicals. It was fun & another day of learning experience. Sad to say until now I still have a little bit of a hard time communicating well with my patients. I’m good at smiling & greetings, but when it comes to conversations I fail. I’m not sure if it’s because of the age or the culture… I still have to figure that one to myself.

Today’s my second week of clinicals (since we only go there 1-2x/wk) and zomgah it’s a fail-so-so…
Our task this week is to concentrate on one resident and do as much as we can with our learned skills especially Physical Assessment. You’ll think granma and granpa will stay in one place. Nu-uh! You have to coax them a lot xD! Read More
Well today’s my second (or third) to the last day of driving lessons. I’m counting the days. Seriously most of the times I’m freakin’ annoyed with my instructor. He kept giving me vague instructions. I only ask to give me clear instructions because I don’t run in the same wavelenght as his. He kepts telling me to relax but he’s the one making me so aggitated & confused.
Anyway, I guess it’s me that has to adjust for the remaining sessions. I just have to endure ‘ till I pass. *prays*
We had our second scenario exercise for our clinicals this morning. The scenario’s are usually to exercise our skills & our critical thinking while our instructor watch us on how we deal with the patient. So our group was divided into 3 groups for the 3 available beds. I’m quite ecstatic since I was paired with people that I rarely interact with. Read More
As I said in my twitter this morning, these past few Saturdays I hired an instructor to learn how to drive. Some of you would go like, “wtf, why did you still hire an instructor!?” To cut my “because” short, people don’t have time to teach or car to teach me.
Pops told me it would be better for a driving instructor to teach me since he has brakes on his side. He’s scared to take me out on the road. LOL!
So okay the instructor’s an old man who’s used to new drivers scaring the shit out of him. He’s kinda ok, but I’ll prolly think twice of recommending him to others. His instructions are hard to understand most of the time, either that or my brain waves are in a different pattern. xD Anyway, wish me luck on my actual driving exam!

And still fighting!
My life is being taken over by school atm. The curriculum is fast and there’s a ton of things to learn and memorize. Starting next week, we’re learning about the protocols of the facility’s we’re working at and the week after that, start working there. I’m really feeling shaky about it, but I’m trying not to be too nervous about it.
Passed my first skill exam, which is taking people’s vital signs. It’s easy doing it but when you’re being tested. Kinda nerve wracking when your instructor’s on the opposite side listening to a double stethoscope. Though sadly I bombed my first exam but I was able to kick it back up with my second exam.
Ugh, I want to stay up since I like watching Nightline, but I have an early day tomorrow *_*.
Sleep…
Tomorrow’s another first day of classes for me, this time for Spring 2010.
Before I forget, Happy New Year minna-san.
Yes I haven’t been blogging much again, since nothing really funtastic happens :P. It was just work sleep work for me… aside from the fact that I did some anime marathons, manga reading and some psp gaming on the side.
Nothing much have change, even though it’s the new year. I’m still being haunted by the same problems that prolly will stay with me until I get things settled, in the next few years or something big happens. LOL!
Also the new year isn’t as happy as I thought it would be. I just have this feeling of this isn’t the year for me. At that time I was feeling kind of doomed with a big chunk of uncertainty. I have no idea why I’m feeling doomed. After that, I had this small accidents here and there.
I know why I’m feeling uncertain, prolly because this year I’m starting with my Nursing program classes. I started to really think if this is the one that I want, sadly, I know that it’s too late to back out now. Too much had been invested. I started to miss my former major, Accounting and being stupid about computers, I thought about taking that one too but then, I’m already here. I guess I’m just being nervous if I can get through this. I know I can, but I don’t know if I’ll last.
I pray that I’ll last/survive these coming 2 years. -crosses fingers-
And maybe :P stop beaing lonely for once.
I just took my French 101 finals awhile ago and it was terrible! Huhu! I think I was able to answer like the a few parts of the test but it’s like Oh mon dieu! Je n’étudie pas assez!
I guess because I panicked my mind went blank in the translation part. I missed the common phrases like bon apetite and bon voyage. Urgh!!
Après l’examen mes camarades de classe, gathered in the hallway which kinda made me O_o confused for a time. LOL! They we’re waiting for one of my classmate’s reaction about the test, which usually amuses us. I guess it’s the way he says it or just his personality I guess.
The time was quite early for most of us and another one of our classmates was in such a hurry that he got his pants (or shorts) backwards. That was funny! xD Reminds me of myself too hahaha since I kinda woke up late I just grabbed whatever and like I twitted awhile ago. I was wearing a black hoodie, pants and moss green baby doll shoes (sneaker like). And no pics! LOL!
It was one of the amusing classes that I had and I’m gonna miss my classmates. I can’t take the 102 class because it would so clash with my class schedule this spring and well French kinda amuses me even though with all those pronounciation twisting my tongue.
Maybe years from now if I have the chance, I’ll continue it, that is if I still remember it xD.
Until next time. Laters~
Btw~ Excuse my beginner french :P At least I’m using what I’ve learned… kinda xD
I guess in my family I’m just that. Also my sister calls me a hater. ^^; I guess that would be me… sometimes.
Truthfully, I don’t really knows some of the things that annoy me until I guess I get to face it.
I’m usually a practical and a logical person so people who tend to not use that thing inside their heads annoy me. :P Though of course there would be exceptions.

*flops*
So my week was packed with so many things to do and I’m glad that I was able to do most of things that I needed to go. I’m almost done with my requirements.
Got the BG check and I’m just waiting for the results. I got my CPR card ready and I just had my physical yesterday. Aside from the basic stuff, the PRN wanted to do the other stuff. *_* I guess the fear of more problems showing up got me oh and also the fear of how much will it all costs too. LOL.
They didn’t want me to leave too xD when they saw that my BP was high. ^^; Heh~ As far as I know that’s my normal BP, I’m a walking time bomb. xD Anyway, for the next 3 weeks *sighs* I have to visit the clinic once a week to get my BP taken. I wanted to tell them that stress is adding more to the high pressure. So many things to do, so many problems, little time *flops*
Psh~ Hopefully (there’s that word again) things will be fine soon…
And I’m here again. For awhile boredom took over my life and I have been (sad to say) been addicted playing Facebook games. Right now I’m slowly trying to move away from it and play one less game, maybe keep one game or two to keep my time.
Anyway, good news that I have been accepted officially to the Nursing Program (yay!). Bad news (for me) but nothing to weep that much is that I’ve lost the opportunity to buy a new desktop because of the good news. LOL. There we’re requirements that I have to accomplish within a month… hence the title. A month is not enough to complete all those requirements but I’m slowly getting to the 50% completion.
*Sighs*
So many things to do, not enough money and so little time. *sad*
On another good side I guess xD I’m addicted (too) with the kdrama, You’re beautiful and jdrama, Samurai High School. It’s keeping some of my bored times not so boring.
I guess I better get back to my scheduling, listing all those things that I need to accomplish this week and get some rest. I’m looking forward to err later night’s rest. Hopefully I get to sleep early.
And hopefully, my life’s current storm would pass by smoothly and not enough damages.
I know this is a week’s late but what the hell…
I think most people know already or if you guys don’t know about the Typhoon Ketsana (bringing) hitting the PH and brought so much damage mainly to the cities and provinces in the Luzon area.
People who wants to help can donate in cash to the Philippine Red Cross . In kind you can drop off to the nearest Island Pacific Supermarket in your area. They are cooperating with GMA Foundation.
