You'll get there. It's just taking some time, but you will. ☺ ...
In residency, there’s a saying: The days are long, but the years are short. In neurosurgical training, the day usually began a little before 6 a.m., and lasted until the operating was done, which depended, in part, on how quick you were in the OR. A resident’s surgical skill is judged by his technique and his speed. You can’t be sloppy and you can’t be slow. From your first wound closure onward, spend too much...
Missing #Laboracay2016 Definitely there on 05.01.17 Be back to rock, Bora! :) But first #PLE2017 WAAAAHHHH! ☹ ...
BORACAY PLEASE. I miss PART-EHYING. Where are you party friends? HUHUHU ...
It's not SUNDAY. But DON'T GET ME STARTED. God knows how exhausted I am. Needed to go home for some fresh air. Looks like Pops have some sepanx. At present, I am residing at my grandmother and tita's place to concentrate on the second PLE.. #PLE2017 Not yet that over with the first one. But eventually, I will be. And write about it MAYBE. WHO GETS F* DENGUE FEVER 2 WEEKS BEFORE THE BIG DAY???!...
Jas coz I can't start writing on my laptop without a decent layout.. Yeah. HNY! :) 2017 :) And sorry for those in mobile. I have exhausted my brains to manage the css commands. THE IMAGES ON THE POST-IMG are so big for DIV. GRRR. Rants of a web designer. Talk about mobile portrait and mobile landscape separate CSS codes. FFF. Oh well. Check this layout on a laptop to appreciate my masterpiece. Chow. ...
You killed me. That one exam. .... I'll be back for you. ?!@>!!>@! ...
One word. Bummer. The worse part in the world. Not seeing your name. I may not fully understand right now. But, it's not over. I'm going to fight. Congrats to those who successfully passed the #PLE2016 :) It's not the end of the world. What's the end, if we stop. I won't stop. I still don't know what's God's plan for my life, but for sure... it's something :) Likewise, to you :) Hang in...
“All men have stars, but they are not the same things for different people. For some, who are travelers, the stars are guides. For others they are no more than little lights in the sky. For others, who are scholars, they are problems... But all these stars are silent. You... you alone will have stars as no one else has them." "In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I...
Even Youths grow TIRED and WEARY, and YOUNG MEN stumble and fall; but those who TRUST IN THE LORD will renew their strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. - Isaiah 40:30-31 ...
According to Wikepedia (hahaha.. shaddap, wiki is my new BFF), Grit is defined as: "Grit in psychology is a positive, non-cognitive trait based on an individual's passion for a particular long-term goal or end state, coupled with a powerful motivation to achieve their respective objective. This perseverance of effort promotes the overcoming of obstacles or challenges that lie within a gritty individual's path to accomplishment, and serves as a driving force in achievement realization.

If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or being lied about, don’t deal in lies, Or being hated, don’t give way to hating, And yet don’t...

"Girls are derided, at an early age, for displaying confidence and swagger. As a result, many of us overexplain ourselves — to justify, to contextualize, to apologize for seeming any way other than how we're meant to seem. We forget how to stop and let our words hang in the air, without apology. We forget that we're not always responsible for other people's comfort, and that refusing to take responsibility for other people's comfort is...
I don't understand this extreme feeling. It's as if there's a big chunk of meat inside my chest each day. Days like these, I miss having someone cheering for me. That warmth embrace... That daily morning text messages... That endless exchange of consolation.. Yup, I need a pet. ...
Snapshot preview of my graduation picture. Another graduation... another moment, accepting a "fake" diploma/certificate with matching shaking of hands :) Such a proud moment. Now.. on to the Physician Licensure Examination on September 2016! Let's go #PLE2016 woot. woot. *gulp ...
If there's one thing that life has taught me, it's the ability to know yourself :) It's wonderful that there is a silver lining in life. If there's one thing I gained, it was the ability to know myself. And so, thanks :) ...
In case you are wondering... I'm not okay. I'm not okay in settling. Yes, you heard me right. Once was enough. But I'm not settling into something that I know I don't deserve. I don't know when that day comes... and honestly, I'm not afraid if it doesn't come. I'm not afraid. I have no fear. But if settling down to anyone is the norm these days, then I'm not okay. ... I deserve more...
Recently, I have been amazed by someone very close to me. I've always admired her for being so strong. This made me realize that there are many women out there whose circumstances are far worse than mine but despite it all, they choose to be strong. It's not an easy decision. But they have to. I'm so amazed with this woman's confidence, wit and grace to bounce back up. I'm very fortunate that I have...
Pressured to be back in my size ASAP causes stress. This time, maybe just wait. <3 ...
After enduring 10 years of medical education, I realized I have put some good amount of weight. Stress. Binge eating and the like, has placed me in this current weight. HAHA. Now, that I have all the time in the world, I realized that shredding down can be achieved. I thought fast results would help but then I realized that I should be patient with myself. Still not in the shape I want to be....

Some people only look at life through eyes that seldom gleam while others look beyond today as they're guided by a dream And the dreamers can't be sidetracked by dissenters who may laugh for only they alone can know how special is their path But dreams aren't captured easily; there's much work before you're through but the time and efforts are all worthwhile when the impossible comes true And dreams have strength in numbers for...
Sometimes I wonder, if my life is just meant for this. Sometimes, I dream that my feet takes me to places. Places that I never knew existed. Places that my heart wont dare. Sometimes I wonder if this is all that life can offer Sometimes, my mind wonders... as it stands still in awe... to Places that the heart silently dreams to Places that the mind slams shut And reality comes vividly back Back to...
Thank you for crushing me. Now I realize that I had lost myself in you. Now I can focus on getting myself back to the incredible and single person I was before I was even been in a relationship. Thank you for making me see the beauty in this breakdown. There was magnificence and poetry in the pain I experienced. Thank you for helping me explore my artistic outlets. It has given me so much...
One day when you look for me you won't find me and in your heart there'll be no one left to tell you which path I took and where I forgot you. From: One Day When You Look For Me ...
There is a terrible pain in the left side of my heart. I can't seem to get it off my chest. Thinking of all my classes in internal medicine, I'm deciphering the various differential diagnoses I could get. Am I having a heart attack? Heart indeed. But no, not an attack. Just a case of emptiness. It's funny how you possess that left side of my heart. Why not occupy this right side as well?...
It's 12:21 AM. But my mind is racing. I have been in deep thought for the past 2 days. I need to get this off my chest. At present, all I could think of is the future. Weird. I'm that type of girl. I don't function without a plan. Some just go with the flow, but for me. I can't. I'm the go get it girl. I need a tangible something so that I can...
Kuya, 6 years today. Words can't describe the grief... but there is a reason behind everything. One day, we will meet again. Thank you. You are always with me. <3 Miss you everyday, love :) ...

I was born in the late 80's and grew up seeing the advances of the computer as well as the internet. As a child during that era, I was accustomed with MIRC and ICQ, wherein the sound of the dial-up was music to the ears (knowing that you could have internet access soon). What I liked most about this era was that you can meet a variety of people and keep up with friends you...
New Layout. Finally. Finally something that goes with my minimalist persona. :) Maybe this would make me write more. Facebook statuses (HAHA, God forbid) have been the new blogsites these days.. but then, I hate the nosy silent Facebook users (who secretly whisper when you're not around while flashing their fones to each other in dismay.. boo you whore). So, enuf said. It's no longer the social media platform for updates. lol. Will try my...
"I could have loved you until your walls came down, and in the midst of the rubble we’d find a place to start rebuilding. I wanted to show you that things that get knocked down can be rebuilt and that letting someone else help build you up can make you strong. You couldn’t let me love you, so for a while you decided to make me hate you. How crazy is it that for you...
