yeba. up and kicking nanaman ang blog ko. i have approximately two months to abuse it. then it's back to patay-na-bata mode again for another six months. :)

grabeng blessing na talaga 'to. despite my katamaran, i managed to pass all my subjects. next sem second year nako! wahoo! thank You, Lord sobra. sorry Kayo na tumrabaho sa lahat. tamad ko kase mashado. next sem, iba na.

i guess the most important thing i've learned in school for this year, is i now know how to deal. deal with difficult people, with frustrating circumstances, no-win situations, crappy shite, and overwhelming stuff. before, i only knew how to shrug my shoulders and take it all in a stride, but now i've learned that:
a. there are some things i can't change, or that i have absolutely no control over.
b. that things can't always go my way.
c. and that sometimes things just happen for the sole reason of pissing you off.

* and you simply have to learn how to deal with it. *

and that, my friends, i'm mighty proud to say, is what i've learned in med school. forget that kwashiorkor is a protein deficiency disorder, or that the retina is made up of 10 layers. managing to get out of 1st year in med  school unscathed, i'm glad i've learned this lesson well. :)

-this is denise. she's my favourite person in the world. we both indulge in drama, that's why we get each other.  she's going through some heavy crap right now, and i'm praying to God, wishing on the stars and keeping my fingers crossed that everything would turn out to be great for her. go den! we're rooting for you.

i guess for the most part, this is why med school's fun despite the ka-toxican. that although i'm on the path of learning and healing (and crashing and burning on occassions), i've found uber-cool friends to enjoy the journey with. and although i still have bouts of wishing i was in ust for med, right now, i'm glad i'm studying in the best med school in fairview instead..

april fool's everyone!
