Adieu to My First Job!

Wednesday, July 18, 2018

Just to brief things up,this is only the longer version of my resignation message to my workplace as I prefer to post this somewhere that I could express freely (which is here,in my blog!) ;)

DISCLAIMER: All thoughts are of my own and some statements are in Filipino language.No direct person is pointed out on whatever criticism I made on this entry.

Duty at the Mental.

Wednesday, March 27, 2013

I bet this was one of the factors that boosts this sem's stress level! At this start of the month, we had a duty at National Center for Mental Health for 2 weeks.We were at morning shift every monday to friday and our stay there has left us with a lot of learnings :) It was a different kind of experience among the other clinical areas that we've encountered.Like it wasn't the usual 'ward chores'in the hospital but it was more on patient-interaction and therapy.



so this was taken from the entrance of the hospital. Sisa was taken as a 'psych model' there representing the mentally-ill patients admitted here. Actually it was a big hospital which consist of Pavilions of different sorts of psych patients.They don't look like clinical wards though,but they look like a jailhouse which i can't believe at first sight.well anyway.



We had a tour around the hospital on the second week of our stay there. As what I've said, the patients were classified on each pavilion based on their type of mental illness/cases.



There's even a Shangrila pavilion in the area but no,it's not for the elite! Haha :)) This is a pavilion for teenage boys. There's also another pavilion there in which they used to call it as "the Boracay pavilion". It is where regressed patients(adult patients whose intellectual thinking has regressed into a baby) stay.Since those patients think that they're still in the mother's womb, all of them are naked and mostly are in fetal position in the sides of the room.



Sooo this is our assigned pavilion aka the Chinese Pavilion!! This is were the Chinese men who have schizophrenia are admitted and as what they've said,it is the most calm pavilion among the others--And i kind of agree with that.Because as we toured along the hospital,we saw several patients who are being restrained (male or female)or isolated in a room due to mania. It was terrifying. Although we can never escape from seeing things like that there..seeing the eccentricity of all things. Honestly i was very nervous when we entered the Pav. for the first time.The patients were so eccentric at its finest! Some are naked,some have their own imaginary friends...And when they eat,it's like there's no tomorrow as they can finish 10 cups of rice,dammmn! o_O However, my views on them has changed during our sessions with them. Indeed,you'll never know them once you get familiar to them. Our sessions with them includes a lot of therapeutic actvities like dancing,singing,recreation,entertainments,arts&crafts and more.



Here's a bunch of crayons that we provided for their play therapy.It's actually one of those activities that I got impressed at them :) We played 2 songs (a happy and a sad song) and while it was playing, they need to draw something of what's on their mind then after that we get to interpret their drawings.There was really a meaning behind what they've drawn that time like as for my patient,he drew the Philippine flag because this is something that he usually sees before (he once told me that he often goes to Luneta Park).So yeah, it was neat! :-)


After several of therapy sessions, we had a Socialization Party as a means of ending our interaction phase to our patients. It was kind of emotional to my other classmates since they really got attached with their patients.Well, let alone that they were very nice people! They may act odd but they're nice to talk to. maloloka ka sa mga ginagawa nila,haha! :))
aaand that ends our duty day for the whole schoolyear!


'til then!

It's week 2 of uber stress and it's at its peak already.-__- Well, we've been having duty at the Mental Hospital lately and so far,it has been a fun experience.Setting up some therapeutic activities with the schizophrenic patients was hyped! :)) At first, you may see them frightening based on their crazy not-so-down-to-earth attitudes.But once you get to interact with them,you'd realize that these people are just mentally disturbed resulting from either abuse or trauma in their lives.So yea,too much mental stuff for now--i'll be writing a separate entry for this next time!


Anyway,part of the busyness last week was our Thesis title defense last Saturday and it all went great!! 9 BALLS babyyyy! The sweat of revising topics on the last minute and staying up late just to do this whole thing has paid of very well! :') Although we were warned about how bloody our topic is for some reasons.haha!Either way,cheers to TEAM FLOATING!! (yours truly and Rio C.) :)

Another happy part that we had last Saturday was that i had a cocol date with Sam YG together with my crew friends! :">

so..i met him again.♥ Being with a public figure has always been starstruck-ing especially when it's your celeb crush :">

It was a day full of pick-up lines and chitchatting.He was very sweet and entertaining if you asked me.and i bet it's one of those moments that i'll never forget about him. ;) Indeed,"wag ka na sa ibang lalaki,dun ka na sa dj".HAHAHA! There's gonna be more to come soon,hopefully!♥

On the other hand, there will be an open house at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf on March 17 from 10am to 11:30am featuring their new drinks.





I thank coffee for keeping me company throughout this hectic week--or perhaps i should say,a HECTIC SEMESTER.The brew of the coffee beans just kept me awake and has made me a lark of my own for the sake of school stuff. Hence,i can't wait for this to end next week!!.it's just one more push and i'm done!


'til then!

PS: HAPPY 13!! #3rd ;)

there is FUN in spite of the difficulties :)

I used to truly abhor my schedule in school because it's been hectic and very unstable!It's like we have a new sched. every week as we need to adjust for our prof's availability--oh wait,it's professor/nun or clinical instructor T_T As i said last time,i was in the midst of completing my requirements for the first half of the sem plus my midterms which kept being postponed.It's very annoying to the fact that you keep on reviewing every night and then it keeps being postponed T__T Thus until now,it is my third week of having our midterm exams.ughh.It was also our university week last week so we had a UFAIR(Jan.25-27) for St.Paul Week.There were a bunch of food stalls,girly accessory stalls and other fair booths&rides for the highschool students.And also,the fair was sponsored by Smart wherein they gave out a tumbler and a Jump In SIM card.

here's a pic of me and ze crew at the SMART photobooth.it's fun to LIVE MORE with SMART!

The cash was really crucial when it comes to univ.fair especially when you needed to exchange 'em first into chits before buying something! -__- I kind of spent a lot of accessories and stuff then.Haha,di bale,paminsan-minsan lang naman toh :))So here's what i bought:


wooden bear ring and golden metal "DREAM" bracelet from Pop.Junk.Love

Paulinian shirt from The Perfect White Shirt

blue M&M earrings from Carla's Clay Creations

and this snakey-snake ring from Splatt MNL :)


There was also a concert in school last Saturday featuring Silent Sanctuary and Up Dharma Down.i didn't watch it 'cause i wasn't a fan of either of the bands.i'll make it up to next time! Haha,hopefully my batch2014 would break the rules and set up another univ.fair next year! ;))

And besides UFAIR,there's another moment that made my week great last time---i met Sam YG again!! :"""> It was last Thursday when he had a talk at Palma Hall while i was with my HS friend then.I really didn't expect that i would be able to talk to and meet him again..sigh,thank you lord. 0:")There's got to be more to come soon!❤

i hope that this would be the last week of my very busy week.and to catch up further for my previous entries,here's a flashback of New Year's Eve at home..


'til then! :)

#2012 MEMORIES

Monday, December 31, 2012

This year has been a whole set of adventure to me.Yet,i can say that it's been surprising and wish-fulfilling. no matter how old we are,lets just live while we're young shall we! :)

10. Fangirl Moments.The songs of Carly Rae Jepsen and One Direction became a big impact to me. "Call Me Maybe" being stuck on my head is very well-understood.but me as a "directioner"?!Haha i used to despise them until my cousins got me in to them.Though, i'm not a die hard fan; i only came to like their songs. :)

Buy Carly Rae Jepsen's "Kiss" and One Direction's Take Me Home!

9. Rilakkuma Collection. It's true that i can't resist buying something when it comes to that very cute bear! :))



here's a pic of my collection.this was taken last summer,so i bet a couple more Rilakkuma stuff has been added after that :p

8. quotable-QUOTES. indeed,people has come to be more exposed to its emotions ever since twitter was made.that's why backstabbing and pick-up lines became a shiz.haha! RT here and hashtag there,pati facebook status nilalagyan na ng hashtag..oh dear. :)) well i could be one of those since i often use twitter.admit it, we all live in quotes! especially the ones that are relatable to ourselves.However,post responsibly! check out "Backstabbing/Banat Tips"
7. foodtrippin' . Travelling comes with foodie adventures! this year has brought me into a lot of cravings. milktea?buffet experience?J.Co and desserts? just check out my instagram for my foodie pics!But sometimes,i post some food reviews here also. FOLLOW ME ON INSTAGRAM HERE
6. entrepreneurship. truly an 'income generator' :)) It all started last summer when i tried to sell style watches (which was surprisingly successful). and then i made fan button pins for One Direction and sold my extra Katy Perry merchandise.Then comes Nursing Week in school where i get to sell accessories.This was somehow one of the best experiences i've learned this year.and it's all thanks to Frontrow Enterprise for teaching me how to create a business :) VISIT MY ONLINE SHOP HERE.NOTE: I'll be officially changing this page into my own online swell shop soon.thus that will no longer be my frontrow page :)
5.crew-ventures.i'm blessed to have such awesome barkadas! :) from i.z.u.n.i.a,#prettygirlsrock,group 3C powers and to my crewmates..they are the best. even if we have a nearby mall in school, we still hang-out as far as Makati!! iba talaga pag planado,haha :)) so there,i really enjoyed every bit of our hang-out adventures.

here's a collage of some of our hang-outs.


4. California Dreams! (012212)i'll never forget winning a concert ticket here for the first time and upgrading it into Titanium(vip). thanks to that contest,Astroplus! I'm happy to see Katy Perry in concert for the 2nd time :) it's the only concert that i've gone to this year and it's one of the best concerts among the others that i've watched before.indeed,it's a Candyfornia Dream experience ;D read my full review about the concert here
3. GREYSESSED.my disappointment has swooned away; all thanks to Christian Grey.♡ Call it horny or porno but it's not! Yeah,it's erotic but it has it's own plot. I don't want to debate this further anymore,haha! but anyway,i love this trilogy so much!!for the first time,i cried while reading the book 'cause i felt very emotional for some reasons :)) Christian Grey is one heck of a girl's ideal man.'nuff said♡

i'm proud enough to buy and finish the whole trilogy during the month of August (specifically,during 'Hagupit ng Habagat') :))

2.(121312)meeting my ultimate celeb crush.not only was i happy about seeing the whole BNO crew but also i'm very happy to meet Sam YG the most :"D

ONE OF THE BEST WEEKS EVER.

We had our Nursing Week last week where i get to go on business in school.Yes,I was happily able to sell my accessories and button pins there and it was crazy! :D i never thought that the HS/GS students would go loco on my 1D button pins.haha :)) and aside from that,i also sold style watches, earrings, necklaces and homemade bracelets. It all went for a good cause ;)

Besides nursing week in school was our 'crew-ventures' with my awesome friends. After a month-long of fucked-up sched,I guess we took this week to have a winding for ourselves as well. So here goes our activities:

12/10.we went to UP Techno Hub for sightseeing and dinner.
12/11. I went to Correctional,Mandaluyong for gift-giving while the others at Welfareville for health teaching in the morning. I wasn't able to take a pic at Correctional because it was prohibited since it's a jailhouse for women. Then in the afternoon,me and my friends went at Subspace Coffee. ohh i just adore the purple ambiance there especially now that the cafe's full of hanging teddy bears in the ceilings! ;D

12/12. it's 12-12-12 and we've no plans on that day! #REST

12/13.one of my most unforgettable days of my life♡. So at first,we went strolling at Megamall.Then we went to Shaw to watch Magic 89.9's BNO live!



me at the Magic studio! :D




and here are the boys doing ze show on a "Healthy Gang Thursday" :)

Mr. Station Guy made us go inside the studio during the commercial and after that, we watch them do the whole show.



Here is love survivor,Jojo playing "Yes-Maybe-No" with G Tongi.it was very hilarious :))



and here comes Sam YG with his epic facial expressions.and ohh boy,he even danced the Gangnam style at the studio.haha! :"))

After that segment was another commercial and during that,we were able to talk to them and take pictures with them.Btw,i gave them a box of donuts from Country Style as a gift and i handed it over to Sam YG. gahhh he was so kind,i even introduced myself to him :"">



a group pic with the gang!



with the gorgeous ms. G.Tongi :)



and here's me and my ultimate celeb crush,Sam YG. i'm sooo happy that i finally get to meet him after 5yrs of listening to him in the radio.Yes,i've been hearing him since he was still in 99.5RT.thus,it's been a wish come true ♡



We were able to talk to them after the show.It was a great night and so,my friends had a sleepover at my house and drank the night away.yeahhh mennn!!

12/14.
We celebrated our friend's birthday,Sophie at Subspace.We were somehow overloaded with cake over there and also,we met Toff Tiozon from MYX VJ Hunt 2009.Our pics are on my friend's facebook account :)


Overall,our crew-venture was a success and wish-fulfilling.i hope we could do it all over again. :""") well,there's more to come!
