Fever thoughts

November 25, 2008

With barely two nights to go before our Palawan adventure, I am feverish.  Doesn’t feel like it’s the flu but I’m really warm from the inside since last night. Paranoia strikes.  Could it be tuberculosis?  Because the fever hits me on hours towards the evening.  I could have been exposed to an active case recently.  Or could it be dengue, [...]

The Speech Project

November 20, 2008

Was given my first speech assignment in Toastmasters, the Ice Breaker.  This is to introduce myself to the audience and for them to gauge my first-time performance.  In the next few days, we will do our best to write a speech for this.  I feel a little nervous now just thinking of it.  As they [...]

November 20, 2008

Ginkgo biloba, the miracle herb that is touted to prevent dementia and improve memory, has just been proven not to be effective by a clinical trial.  This after I took several of these expensive Ginkgo biloba pills when I was reviewing for our exams in Medicine, the biggest of which was the Board Exams.  I didn’t really know but [...]

I wanna be a Toastmaster!

November 17, 2008

Had our Monday night class for OH.  After the lecture, the casual discussions went to the topic of public speaking and Toastmasters, as our professor is a governnor of the elite international organization. Suddenly, I had the urge to join a Toastmasters club–something I planned to do about 3 years ago when I realized that I have [...]

Last Sem Blues

November 16, 2008

Down to our last sem in MPH! The first day (Saturday) of classes however proved to be too exhausting for me.  I was sleepy most of the time in the classes.  Introductions, expectations and requirements. Currently contemplating of the career in public health ahead of me. But there’s still fieldwork next summer and the dreaded comprehensive exam.  [...]

We’re compatible and meant for each other!

November 12, 2008

For my Hon and I, this day will stand in our lifetime as one of our most memorable.  We have surpassed 10 years in our relationship and we are hoping to “get there” soon so this particular experience that we had today enlightened us and taught us many things about our personal selves and “ourselves.”  We have [...]

It’s a deep experience!

November 9, 2008

Behind us is not some marine poster, but an oceanarium with real fishes swimming!  We checked out Manila Ocean Park, the country’s first ocean park located at the back of the Quirino Grandstand.  The Php 400 fee I think is too much for viewing big aquaria inside.  The deep sea journey is arranged into stages: from Agos, [...]
