Trust Issues.

Not again. Liars. I hate being lied at, especially when it's too little of a thing to be lying about. Why do people have issues on lying to me when all I every did was be honest and true to them? It's one of the attitudes that I hate the most. It's an atrocious offense they could ever do to me because I'm one of the few people who actually understands and digests things before reacting and yet they still take me for granted.

This is why I'm careful enough of who to love nowadays because I don't want to get hurt anymore, it's tiring already. It's getting a bit predictable too. Those I love, take me for granted. What a day this has been for me. People specially dear to me, all committed dishonesty to the littlest of things. How can I trust them who cannot have the guts to face and tell me even though it might hurt me?

Liars. They are everywhere. My dad's right. I can't trust anyone.

Vamps.

Overall it was a good week except for some sucky quizzes I had. This week I found out that my best buddy is thinking of marrying his current gf already and that he's happy. Kudos for you tol! Hopefully she's the one for you na. Hehehe naawa na ako sa heart mo hehehe! Anyway, what else happened this week? My life is pretty much the same, my hospital duties were great I had this patient with Beta Thalassemia, it's a hereditary blood disorder wherein the body has inadequate production of red blood cells and thus he at a very young age, he had been exposed to blood transfusions every 1-2months just to keep him alive. It's a very sad case cause although he is coping up for now, I've read from the internet that there's just a slim chance that he will live up to the 20's-30's. Jeez.

Those people with this disorder are what I call the present-day "Vamps".

Well, well, well, what can I say, I'm glad I'm quite normal and so are you.

Good 'Ol Sunday

The CES (Community Extension Services), the org I'm in at school, attended the city government's medical mission today at the Jaro covered gym. It was a one-day affair hosted and sponsored by Mercury Drug Store. There were around 2,000 and more participants from all over the city who availed this one-day free consultation and medicines for all.

Our organization was asked by the city representative to take the vital signs of those said participants and so it was heck tiring. Imagine 37 of us CES volunteers taking temperature, blood pressure, and chief complaints to the that huge number of people, (hehe!) But it was a success! Nothing stopped us from doing the task and succeeding in it. Great job guys! We had free snacks and free lunch sponsored by Jollibee. The event ended at 3pm.

THE CES Volunteers w/ our adviser

I realized that being a nursing student and as well as a volunteer for the commmunity is a big responsibility but nevertheless at the end of the day all the hardwork has paid off because who can see that all those people had been catered with their needs especially most of them are not well-endowed. This is one the reasons why I joined CES. It's not ony because I got no better stuffs to do, but it's because I want to help other people, share my knowledge and skills to others who are in need. It's true that when I graduate I'd go back to the U.S. and work there for good, but these activities and experiences like this are worth carrying back to my heart. At least, I can also stay that although most of the time my life here in PI was boring, but when those times that I'm not bored, I help other people who are less fortunate than me.
