I've been watching Daria the past week. Thanks youtube. Thanks MTV. I miss the 90s. Full of experimentation and expression uncorrupted by commercialism. Cartoons during weekends were few during the 90s. Heck, we had few channels since we didn't have cable back then. MTV was the only source of "alternative" tv which manages to fulfill my twisted mind. Not that I understood Daria back then. I wasn't even able to watch it regularly because showing schedules for it seem to change every month and it usually lands on siesta time (I hate siesta time but almost never got out of it.). I'm jumping from one point to another so suit me? Ok?

Less than 2 weeks left. I still haven't finished some of the tasks I had planned for the summer, notably, organizing my trans from 3rd and 4th year and compiling our vacation pictures for printing. I've been planning to do something major on Friday but I could chicken out at the last minute. Spanish lesson has going more smoothly since I was able to download a textbook on Spanish. I'm taking it slow, almost like a child's pace.

I miss my job. Obvious ba na ayaw ko pa talaga mag-med school?

I still want to show to this older person that the BSPH is not a useless degree program (Well, my co-worker who'll be staying may succeed, I hope.).
It may need to have its curriculum revised, maybe allowing for more freedom for students or maybe implement schemes (med tech scheme, health management scheme and classic PH scheme). I understand that implementing schemes might be a logistics nightmare which could be solved if they allow some undergraduates to take graduate level courses. Of course, they'd also need to beef up their admission, weed out those looking for a relatively easier way into UPCM (easy compared to the programs of the white colleges; hard compared to bio and psych). Maybe the faculty could also re-implement its "kuripot" ways of grading and learn from CN how to discourage students from taking up Medicine completely or at least, postponing it. I'm still surprised how many of my HS batcmates who wanted to become MDs and took up nursing in UPM seem to have developed a dislike for the discipline (medicine not nursing).
