What a great time to be alive; to be surrounded by beautiful souls. I've been surrounded by such kind hearts these past few weeks and it feels relieving to be supported emotionally. I mean, lately it's been difficult, I'm kinda stagnant right now but I must be patient at some point. Surrendering my plans to the Lord instead of ranting cause I know His plans are better than mine.

191019 Winter, Spring


The 40* Hapia girls. 

Some of them have already left for Auckland to work while I'm still stuck here in Hastings, but I'm not fretting. I'm just starting to miss the girls. 

Spent cold winter nights and started with the beautiful spring days with them.

It's been a year. I've been writing but on my notebook; definitely not typing.

Well, it's been 2 months since I've arrived here in a foreign land- New Zealand. Uhm, my new home. It was fun arriving here almost 3 months ago, eyes puffed because of crying or was I too scared? Haha idk. I already passed my CAP Course, I have my Annual Practicing Certificate and I'm a New Zealand Nurse. It still seems weird being all here, passing the course I've been dreading about, living away from everything and everyone. All this time I've been all "too overwhelmed." Maybe because I never expected all of this to happen? I mean I was actually really hoping I could step out of my comfort zone and do something great for myself- like get a nursing job overseas da da da; and tada! Here I am actually achieving everything?! Probably my overused word for the day is overwhelmed?  HAHA idk cause I know I still am but definitely HUMBLED.

We are raising a generation where owning expensive materials define entitlement. Where irrational arguments rise because of a post from a social media account because the post does not actually agree with his/her beliefs.

Why does it feel comforting to be sentimental at 12 in the morning?

A constant reminder to self that no matter how difficult times can be, there's always, always a shinny rainbow at the end of rainstorms. 

Just feeling grateful for having a person who's always there to listen and play along with me. My dearest HB, don't let go, my love. We'll go through this, together. :)

Rants.

3 years post graduation and I'm constantly finding myself complaining how all this adulthood would suck.

Well, the job is quite rewarding. Got a spot at a local government hospital, tryna saving lives of strangers. Sometimes they stay at their best, saying thanks and all. But mostly, they keep on looking down at us , as if their Phil health paid enough to be screaming at us like their slaves. Lol no you didn't even pay a single centavo to be treating us lyk dis. Why can't you be just as tamed as you have to be. We're humans too not some magicians who can bring back lost lives. We try to save lives, not to hocus pocus the dead ones. Some modesty and respect helps too.


Next, why can't people (in general) can't be fucking straight forward. I mean, it doesn't hurt to say 'ooh Dan, dat's not how it's done.' Or 'Dan, there's something on your face.' NOT FUCKING MOCK ME ON MY FACE. ASSHOLES. Still wondering how and  cowards are made of.

There's so much pressure coupled up with stress lately. Idk how nicely should it be treated. Ugh.

Whilst trying to eat my home made ( 가지 나물) steamed eggplant, I may have came up with random silly ideas about how /erratic/ my life is right now.

Just tonight, for my 3pm-11pm shift, a handful of stories can be shared. In short, it was a busy shift. One patient expired, a patient was accidentally extubated just right before he was to be bathed, not to mention, who was also re intubated when half of his bed was damaged. The patient was literally on moderate high back rest lol. A patient who was irrelevantly trying to make up a lot of complaints just to be noticed and a lot more. Lol too tired to remember everything.
Thank you Lord for giving me a very heart warming proffession.

Like how you pull me closer,
Like how you give me tender kisses on my cheeks,
Like how you get hold of my hand,
Like how you want to spend moments,
Like how you make me feel safe,
Like how you give me tight hugs,
Like how everything seems to be so unreal. 

All of these, that I never imagined that we'd be both doing. 

Don't let go, 
HB.

A day before my favorite day. For some reasons, I've been constantly finding myself lucky/blessed these past few days. I got back to work without too much hassle, I'm currently on the waiting list for the /probably/ nurses to be hired soon *hopefully and I found myself a man. A good man, actually. By good I mean, a man who has been constantly the reason of my daily dose of ramblings, rants and genuine happiness. 

Never considering this as an insult to myself but I (as well as with my friends) honestly can't take all this crap seriously. Me. Being into an almost relationship is not me. Or maybe at least, I can try. Maybe.

*Inserts the weirdest laugh*
NO MORE BEERS PLEASE HAHA.

I survived a year!


HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US, MY LOVE!

After a year of having the best love-hate relationship with you, we made it! It's been really nice to have you in my life. I honestly still can't believe how far we've come. From the easy peasy Gen-ward to Med CP, PICU 2, ICU 2 down to ICU 1, I know for sure, you've taught me a lot. Being a nurse was something I prayed so hard for 2 years ago, now that i'm finally living the dream, I can't help but to be grateful for everything. Hoping for a year more of stressful, happy, fulfilling duties! See you when I get back! ♥

"It's about who you miss at 2 in the afternoon when you're busy, not 2 in the morning when you're lonely."

I DON'T MISS YOU ANYMORE. or maybe not.
