Nov. 28, night light (?).
Post-birthday celebration para sa kanya. ^_^
****
Retreat namin sa Light of the World (sa
Silang, Cavite) dapat mula Nov. 29 hanggang Dec. 1, 2006. Pero dahil
may paparating na bagyong sobrang lakas, ang retreat namin ay na-cancel
at mamo-move sa ibang date (probably next week). Kung ako lang ang
masusunod, sana sa January na ma-move, first week ng klase ng
midterm... para tamaan ang community immersion namin. Nyahahahahaha.
****
Duty ko sa Our Lady of Peace Hospital sa
Parañaque. Sa Out-Patient Department (OPD) kami assigned, kung saan
kami ay pampagulo lamang sa normal na buhay ng mga staff nurses doon.
Pag nagkataong ang retreat namin ay ma-move next week, baka hindi na
ulit ako makapag-duty doon. At malamang ay mababa ang makukuha kong
grade, dahil tatanga-tanga ako noong first day ko doon. *sorry na,
bagong area e, saka hindi yun ang field of expertise ko*

"Wild!"- Oyo Sotto **** Oyo Sotto dropped the 'Boy' from his name.
Bow Wow dropped the 'Li'l' from his name.
E bakit si Boy 2 Quizon, Boy pa rin? Dapat sa kanya ay '2 Quizon' o kaya ay 'Man 2 Quizon' na. (amp!!!!!!!!)

Kanina, imbis na regular duty ay nagkaroon kami ng evaluation exam at
case presentation ng aming nursing case study. Hindi ako aware sa mga
susunod na mangyayari.
Deja vu. Case presentation na parang kami ay 3rd year students.
"Ginisa" kaming maigi ng panel. Napakaraming tanong, napakaraming
comments. Kahit mga simpleng bagay o mga bagay na walang kinalaman sa
pinresent na case, tinatanong at sinusuring maigi. Nakakapagod,
nakaka-bad trip.
Hindi ko maintindihan ang purpose ng mga nursing case study at case
presentation na ito, dahil sa aking palagay ay minimal din ang learning
sa ganitong paraan. Mas malaki pa ang part ng stress sa paggawa at
paghahanda para sa mga ito kaysa sa learning.

Dam nit. DAM NIT!!! Tuwing may laban si Pacquiao, hindi ko napapanood ang laban nang hindi ko alam ang result. Maraming nagte-text ng result kahit hindi ko naman tinatanong. Spoilers. Nawawala tuloy ang thrill. DEM YU!!! **** Pacquiao knocked Morales out in the 3rd round. Congratulations. You have proven that you are a very good fighter. Pero sana... TAMA NA ANG ENDORSEMENTS!!! **** Ampayat ni Erik Morales kanina. Balita ko ay minadali niya ang kanyang weight loss para umabot sa weight limit. Palagay ko ay naging factor yun sa kanyang pagkatalo.

CNM (College of Nursing and Midwifery) noong Nov. 16 at 17. *ambaho ng danggit, naamoy ko ngayon* Sa first day ng CNM Days, nagkaroon ng cheering competition, championship games para sa basketball at volleyball, at ang Mr. and Ms. CNM (na puro nursing students ata ang kasali). Game lang ng basketball girls ang napanood ko nang buo. Hindi ko na pinanood ang Mr. and Ms. CNM, sa halip ito ang inatupag ko:  Red Horse ang laman niyan
One-on-one kami ni Kirk (ulol) sa pag-inom. Una akong sumuko, dahil mahina ang tolerance ko ngayon. Sobrang hilo ako (pero hindi ako lasing). Two hours lang ang naging tulog ko mula 4:00am hanggang 6:00am (nakitulog lang ako sa dorm ng kaklase ko). Umuwi ako sa bahay ng 6:20am, kumain, nag-toothbrush, naligo, nagbihis, at pumunta ulit ng venue para sa 2nd day ng CNM days.
Sa second day ng CNM Days, mayroong mga "parlor games" noong umaga hanggang tanghali. Medyo boring (?), pero nakakatuwa rin minsan, lalo na yung rip-off (oo, rip-off) ng Pinoy Henyo kung saan ang magkalaban ay students vs. professors. Sa hapon ng second day ay ang Music and Dance (MAD) Festival. Singing contest ang unang event (solo and duet), na sinundan naman ng dance competition. Nakakatulog ako habang dance competition, dahil 2 hours lang ang tulog ko. Band competition ang final event. Ang banda nina Joemar (former classmate), para sa akin, ang dapat na nanalo. Maganda ang overall performance nila. Magaling ang vocalists, malinis pakinggan ang instruments. Pero iba ang nanalo, at hindi ko malaman kung paano nangyari yun. Ang nanalong banda: Magaling sa instruments? Nah. Average lang para sa akin. Magaling ang vocalist? Hindi rin. Pasok pa lang ng vocalist sa sound check ng "Taralets", sablay na. Hindi ko talaga maisip paanong naging ganun ang result. **** Masayang-masaya ako kasi nakasama kita...

Duty ko sa De La Salle University - Medical Center 2300 (2nd building, 3rd floor). Ito ay ang pediatric ward, kung saan ang mga pasyente ay mga bata. Personally, ayoko sa mga bata. Hindi naman sa wala akong pasensya pagdating sa kanila - hindi ko lang talaga alam kung paano ko iha-handle ang mga ganung tao. Paktor (factor as pronounced by d3@n) din siguro ang kawalan ko ng nakababatang kapatid. Kanina... Ako: "Kumusta?" Bata: "Ok naman...po" Ako: "Ah ok naman... Wala namang masakit sayo?" Bata: "Wala po." Ako: "Ah sige... i-ipit mo to ha? *thermometer* " Bata: "Anlamig!" Ako: "Haha... May alcohol kasi e." Bata: "Haha naninilaw ngipin mo!" Ako: *gulat* "Oo nga e..." (sa loob-loob ko: "Takteng bata to!") Bata: "Siguro hindi ka nag-toothbrush..." Ako: *blanko* -- 2 seconds -- Ako: "Hindi ako marunong nun e.."
**** Time management. For the first time in a long time (?), ginawa ko lahat ng mga kailangan kong gawin habang maaga pa para madali akong makatapos. Pero this time, hindi ako ang may problema sa time management, kundi ang aming instructor de clinical. Dam nit. DAM NIT!!!

Sofia became the featured artist in a bossa-inspired album project
of Ivory Records by "accident". After graduating, she was on her way to
Japan to pursue her research scholarship grant to study Hematology when she was asked to help gather research materials for the project, since she was into bossa nova
since she was in high school. Aside from helping out for the lyrics,
CDs, and other research materials, she was also asked to submit a demo
tape so that Ivory Records would know what bossa sounds like. Sofia
submitted a demo tape of the song "Desafinado".
The record company was impressed, and then she was tapped to be a
session singer. Eventually she was chosen to be the featured artist for
the album.[2]
Her album, entitled Bossa Latino Lite, debuted at number 11 at Tower Records’ Top 25 albums chart.[3]
Other information
Sofia's skills include singing, creative writing, painting, and drawing. Sofia also plays the guitar, a little of violin and percussions.
Her influences in music include Cynthia Alexander, Wolfgang, Paulinho Da Viola, Tom Jobim, Paulinho Moska, Big Mountain, The Corrs, Pinikpikan, Bob Aves, and Eraserheads.
