Entries for October, 2008

hello illinois! again. hehehe

hahaha i can't believe it took me almost a month after stepping upon american soil to make a blog entry that is longer than 140 characters. so anyway what is up with me you ask? i love it here. despite the fact that i live in the suburbs so it's a wee bit difficult to go to places without a car. despite the fact that the next time i will experience a party party will be sometime in 2009. despite the fact that the only people i see aside from my parents are my aunt and uncle and my cousins and i do not see them that often. despite the fact that i am stuck with a dial up internet and i won't be given a dsl until november, at the earliest. not to sound ungrateful to the people who have been feeding me and providing a roof over my head for almost all my life, but i love that i have the apartment to myself almost all day when the parents are at work. and i seem to have gotten over my insomnia because i don't have a problem with sleeping anymore. i take afternoon naps now and sometimes i have to force myself to get out of bed so i could do something else with my time.

i just wish i could start working already. or that i would be done with my USRN application before the middle of february so i wouldn't have to go back. don't get me wrong,i love the philippines and my life there. i wouldn't have to do my own laundry or cook and stuff plus i miss my friends and how from a simple text message (or in some cases, a plurk entry hehehe), a lakad would stem from it hours later, but i really really want to stay here for the time being. i want to start earning the thousands of dollars that i was promised when i agreed to take up nursing. hehehe just kidding. seriously though i want to start working so that my parents didn't have to work so hard anymore. really. hehehe.


please do wish me luck guys, i've never prayed so hard for anything in my life. even for the local boards.

she's a lazy daisy...

it has been an unproductive two days. i think it's because i haven't been drinking my morning coffee. or maybe it's because of the super cold weather that's making me sleepy like all the time and when i am not sleeping i just wanted to stay under my blanket and watch disney channel shows. or maybe it's the fact that i am studying one of the topics in nursing that i used to suck at. well i still do. i didn't completely understand acid base balances when it was taught to us in class, didn't have a full grasp on it when it was sort of tackled in the nle review and i guess it's no surprise really that i won't understand it now. well there's always tomorrow. hehehe. maybe i do need to enroll myself in a review class again but i didn't want to do that yet because it's expensive and i am still not sure whether i will be taking the nclex in the next two months or not. i have just filed my application form and i think it would take weeks before i will be given an exam permit.

i actually turned down a party invitation from my cousin for tonight. that's how lazy i am. hahahaha.

last night i had a dream that somebody threw a pepsi bottle at me, causing the said bottle to break and tiny shards of glass got stuck in my arm, kinda like the first patient's case in trauma center (hehe) and i was asking cha to remove the glass bits from my arm but she couldn't hear me and the next thing i know i was lying on the floor with corbin bleu on top of me. hahaha. i guess it means that i wanted to watch hsm3 that bad and i miss my ds.

what i wouldn't give for a fast forward button right now. i hate waiting.
