I'm officially on a sembreak. POSTED AT 06:34 PM You know Tabbie, I contemplated on deleting you. I almost clicked the left mouse button with the cursor hovering on the delete option in the control panel. I felt that we are already so disconnected now that I thought it was only appropriate to finally let you rest. But then I remembered the 6 years we've gone through together... you have been with me ever since the day I crossed the threshold of College up until the day I passed the board exams. You were there to bear witness to my pain, frustrations and even the small things that made me happy. But lately, i've been too busy to update you with my life. I was so uninspired to blog these days and that it drove me to the point where I thought I didn't need you anymore. Then I suddenly envisioned life without you and I realized that I couldn't let you go. You're like a friend I can't physically see but always there in the sidelines, cheering for me and eager for the latest news about me. It was very selfish of me to have even thought of erasing you. For that, i'm sorry. I'll make up to you by trying to write more often. I want to reconnect with you again, tabbie. :) So now, as a celebration of our reconnection, I present to you... an entry. Okay, let's get this started. *** I'm finally on sembreak, whew! 6 months of hard work has finally paid off. I passed all of my subjects outright and I didn't have to worry about taking removal exams nor the promotion boards. I'm so happy! Thank you Bro, I couldn't have done it without your divine assistance. :D And did I already mention I was exempted to take the Final exam for Biochem? :D I never expected this to happen because Biochem is like one of the most hard knockin' subjects in the first year curriculum... and never would've I guessed i'd end it with a grade of 1.50. Woohoo! My prayers were answered. Now I know that God really listens to those who want to be heard. :) I feel bad for my other classmates though. A lot of them were "weeded" out (as higher years succinctly coin it) and from the original population of 65, section F is down to 38. I blame it on the very rushed environment in FEU. There was really no room for adjustment and they already bombed us with numerous shifting exams since day 1. But I do understand why the academe is doing that, the reason is pretty simple. We're already pursuing a doctorate degree and as aspiring doctors we are expected to handle things with grace and maturity even under the bout of stress. As one of my professors told us, a doctor's life is never stress-free. So as early as now, they're training us to work under pressure because the strain bought about working in a hospital is never a joke. I should know, having worked for more than 5 months inside one. So yeah, i'm gonna have a tough road ahead, but I chose this and i'm standing by it until the end.  Some people who got affected by the "weeding" are close friends of mine. I'm sad about what happened... as in reeeaally sad. But I am as powerless as they are and I can only dust my knees, get up and move on. I have myself to think about too. I pray that God blesses them on whatever they're planning to do after this. That's about it regarding my scholastic affairs. Let's talk about the more trivial but fun (?) events that happened to me lately. *** I just discovered that I'm one of the most googled people in our classroom. Really, I have no idea why. Two people have already admitted on doing so, and i hope i don't get any more confessions soon. The top reason me and my friends could think of is that my classmates are having a hard time believing that I didn't graduate as Cum Laude or with honors at least. Do I look like a liar? Haha! Well, slight lang. :) Uhm, I feel kinda awkward about it but i'm not mad. If you guys are reading this right now, i just wanna say that i'm more boring than a slice of white loaf bread and I hope you don't find any incriminating stuff about me (though i couldn't think of any). Oh and by the way, I got my premed degree from MCU, not UST. :) Speaking of MCU, i went back there last friday and was mildly amused with the structural changes it has undergone since I graduated. However, i'm still as dissatisfied as ever with their administration. That new registrar is really flipping my bitch switch. I kinda missed the old one tuloy. Oh and I finally got my yearbook. It looks very nice, even with typographical errors and all. Plus the testimony under my picture was really sweet. Thanks Dean, i know you're the one who composed that. :) *** About my love life? Hmm.. I don't want to go to details and all I can say is that he's not the guy I thought he was. It was fortunate that I have a good head on my shoulders. My mom certainly didn't raise a fool, for sure! ;D I feel bad for Girl 2 though (You know her). She was just a victim of a disaster called Jerk. Though sometimes I couldn't help but feel somehow responsible for her heartache. I don't know how to console her, and the only thing I could do for her is to wish her peace of mind and strength to overcome the pain. And as for that guy, i pray that he gets what is due to him. The asshole. D:< *** I'm worried about my dad's health these days. The signs of aging are showing up and they definitely don't bring good news. First, his gouty arthritis have struck again. He was briefly hospitalized for it because he couldn't walk and it's causing too much pain. Next is his teeth. He just woke up one day with a swollen face and gums so we rushed him to a dentist to have his molars extracted. Poor dad. He couldn't eat any solid food and he still needs to undergo another dental operation to relieve him of the pain. I feel so sad about this. In my eyes, he's the epitome of power in our house and I grew up looking up to him as some kind of superman. But now, seeing him in a frail and crumbled state makes me weak in the knees and sick to my stomach. But this gives me all the more reason to become a doctor as soon as possible. I still want to repay him for the love and support he has given me all my life. He may have been a strict disciplinarian, but he's still my Dad and I love him.    That's about it for now. I feel refreshed. I missed blogging like this. :)   Later!   P.S. I can't help but post this. Cobalt and Aurum is the cutest couple ever~!

Positive: The Star represents hopes and dreams and the optimism associated with realizing ones hearts desires. The Star is the initial spark of hope that arises from the dust when everything around us seems desolate and bleak. The Star is a renewal of faith in life and our Creator. It represents regeneration and renewal of all the good that life has to offer. The Star also represents the limitless possibilities that life has to offer, from our childish wishes to the high ideals we hold as adults. The Star is the guiding light we have been wishing on all of our lives in hopes of a better tomorrow. While similar to the motivation behind The Fool card, The Star differs in that we have hope beyond whatever our fears may bring. It represents a moment of peace, a reflection of light, or the wonderment of a child.

Negative: Reversed this card represents the loss of all hope, a pessimistic attitude, or succumbing to depression. It can also depict an overly rational point of view or one without any ideals. A minimalist or someone without motivation.
