All I could remember was feeling my heart stop and sobbing my heart out the next second and Dan hugging me quietly. It was a weird mixture of feelings...guilt, sadness, nostalgia, love, ( Read more... )

Bumalik ako sa UERM, my alma mater, nung Saturday. Sobrang excited ako nun maski na, like, 5 tao lang yung nakita ko na naghappy-happy-joy-joy dance ako. Ang weird. Ang weird weird bumalik sa pinanggalingan.

Punyemas, sino ba tong mga taong to? Narealize ko lang na ang ( Read more... )

Mike, my 1st year surgery resident on duty, my Alphan brod, received 2 Sunday duties (in layman's terms, one duty means he has to work 24 hours on Sunday as punishment) because of me. Suffice it to say, kasalanan ko ang lahat dahil ang selfish at bobo ko and if I was interning in another hospital, i'd be receiving 7 days demerit for what I did. But ( Read more... )
