Passport #11

I realized that im being too unfair and selfish. You know those days when you say that "you hate your life", "this day sucks", "i can just die", or "everything is going wrong with my life"? when in truth you know that it isn't? yes, im guilty of this and it's such a shame that no matter how much i try to be positive..i still can't.

It's unfair to think that MY life sucks when
-some people dont even get to eat a proper meal and i complain about not getting to drink starbucks
-some people sleep on the streets and they're even lucky if they have a karton to sleep on and i complain that my bed is not soft enough
-some people dont have anything to eat the next day and here i am wasting food every single day
-some students dont have baons or even a peso in their pockets and i complain that my allowance is not enough.
-some people dont have anything to wear and i complain about how many times i repeat my clothes.
-some children walk barefooted on the hot asphalt and i complain because im not wearing havaianas.
-some people dont have a pen to write with and i complain because im holding a panda pen instead of a G tec
-some people dont even get to hold coloring materials and i complain because i dont own a set of steadlers
-some people are born without limbs and i complain about my thighs because they're big
-some people cannot afford to go to school and i complain because i hate my school
-some people walk god knows how many kilometers just to go to school and i complain because i have to commute
- and the list goes on...

see how unfair life is, do you see how selfish i am. do you see how cruel the world is?

Change by Carrie Underwood

I LOVE THIS SONG, IT'S LIKE MY NEW FAVORITE SONG RIGHT NOW :>
and the way Carrie performed it ...amazing :)

What'cha gonna do with the 36 cents
Sticky with Coke on your floorboard
When a woman on the street is huddle in the cold
On a sidewalk vent trying to keep warm
Do you call her over hand her the change
Ask her a story ask her her name
Or do you tell yourself

You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world
You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world

What'cha gonna do when you're watching t.v.
And an ad comes on
Yeah you know the kind
Flashin' up pictures of a child in need
For a dime a day you can save a life
Do you call the number reach out a hand
Or do you change the channel call it a scam
Or do you tell yourself

You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world
Don't listen to them when they say
You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world
Oh the smallest thing can make all the difference
Love is alive
Don't listen to them when they say
You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world

The worlds so big it could break your heart
And you just wanna help
But not sure where to start
so you close your eyes
Send up a prayer into the dark

You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world
Don't listen to them when they say
Youre just a fool
Just a fool you believe
You can change the world
Oh the smallest thing can all the difference
Love is alive
Don't listen to them when they say
You're just a fool
Just a fool
You believe you can change the world

whatcha gonna do with 36 cents?

yesssir! i've gots the planner. Thank you Marga for giving me your sticker i owe you one!! :>

2009 CNN Hero of the Year: Efren Peñaflorida

"Our planet is filled with heroes, young and old, rich and poor, man, woman of different colors, shapes and sizes. We are one great tapestry," Peñaflorida said upon accepting the honor. "Each person has a hidden hero within, you just have to look inside you and search it in your heart, and be the hero to the next one in need.

"So to each and every person inside in this theater and for those who are watching at home, the hero in you is waiting to be unleashed. Serve, serve well, serve others above yourself and be happy to serve. As I always tell to my co-volunteers ... you are the change that you dream as I am the change that I dream and collectively we are the change that this world needs to be."

-CNN

Congrats Efren Peñaflorida! Thank you for inspiring others to be a hero in their own little ways.
I hope that more Filipinos will be like you :)
PINOY AKO! :> :> :>

Passport #10

You know what? we're all lucky, it's just a matter of counting the blessings.

It's a natural thing not to have what others have and to have what others don't have.

Sometimes, we just have to look around and learn how to breathe again.

We have to appreciate even that little, tiny piece of hope in our hearts and let it stay there.

because there's no such thing as "when all things fail"

There's always a way, so there's no point in stoppping

We have to keep moving forward

we all have to believe

Cold hot air balloon

First week of second sem was such a roller coaster ride. Nothing else can explain it.

It was such a busy week and the schedule is just pamatay. torture.

so the highlight of the week would be our NCM and RLE class last thursday. It was awesome! I thought at first it would be boring and the CIs would be all serious...but they weren't! I learned a lot. :) I'm actually very excited for next week because we get to interview a patient..OMG! first ever "nursing" experience! hahah.

my brain is not working, i dunno what else to type :(

I just wanna say that i had fun the whole week :)

passport #9

dear world,

i decided to continue making passports! what inspired me? well, i was reading my fourth year passports and they just made me smile and showed how important life is. so imma continue kay?! :))
However, instead of Wednesdays i decided to make one on any days of the week since there's school and stuff to do and i wouldn't really know when i can write one. so yeah!

Starbucks planner 2010

Thank you Mandee for tweeting about this last night. I've been waiting for the planner since the mid of october and now IT'S FINALLY OUT. Unfortunately, i have no picture of the planner since people are prohibited from taking pictures of the planner inside the SB stores. Is the planner pretty? well, for me it's okay. that's all i can say. It's pretty much the same as last year's except that the cover is somehow velvet-y..uhh you know how felt paper feels like when you touch it? yeah it's like that! =)) haha. It comes in three different covers (nope, not the colors)..I think the covers show the different stages of coffee-making. I'm not entirely sure. :| :)) Another thing that was changed was the layout. Remember how the past planners have horizontal spaces for each day? Now it's vertical, like the belle de jour power planner, only not as detailed. It's still simple and elegant. I prefer the horizontal one though. So, in order to get the planner you need to buy 9 holiday featured beverages (9 stickers) and 8 starbucks beverage of your choice 'cept for bottled beverages, water and fruit juices (8 stickers). That's 17 stickers! :> and i have good news! PEPPERMINT MOCHA IS BACK!!! I LOVE THIS ONE! :)) The planner includes discount coupons :> yey!

I;m so excited for Christmas! When i entered Starbucks awhile ago i felt like it was already Christmas! The red color and snowy decorations excite me! :)

" I miss every page of my 1B life now where would i be this 2nd sem"

I got the title from cortado's status in facebook hahaha.

First sem of college finally over! Yep! that's right! 3 weeks without school :>
I know i won't make it to the dean's list but whatever... i gave my best shot and I'm happy :) although there are still moments when i remember those times when i was lazy to study and i chose sleeping over studying. :)) Next time, next time .. promise studying to the MAX na :)) :)) i will follow the guidelines i learned in pmsd. haha. I'm really excited for next sem! I know it'll be tougher and there's more stress but there are more nursing subjects and i think we get to have duties in the hospital/community :)

(is this our only IB pic? haha.)

I would like to thank my BSN 1B family for being there, for just the random tawanan and smiles. random hugs and random kwentuhans, goodmornings and goodbyes, random libres and kainans. (noticed the s? hahah). It's a shame we didn't all get to know each other... but the time spent together was worth it :) I will surely miss everyone :).



I'd also like to thank these people who made everything ok. You guys are the best! without you guys, ewan ko kung sang lupalop ng rtr ako mapupunta :)) haha. so thanks :) I know that next sem (if ever na ma-shuffle :() we'll have different barakadas, but just remember that you guys are the first AND THE FIRST WILL FOREVER BE THE BEST.
