gusto ko na matulog. pwede ba next year gumala na lang sa New Year... without the family? Or mag-volunteer duty sa PGH? Gusto ko mag-treat ng naputukan.

Our neigbhorhood seems quieter this time around especially with that blasted boga of yesteryears gone. Sadly, I do notice that there are increasing encounters with kids who smoke and drivers who smoke inside moving jeepneys. I am not aware of any program for kids but the LTO or LTFRB program is failing. Even drivers who have No Smoking signs inside their vehicles, smoke. I say confiscate matches and lighters and ban cigarette peddlers especially in terminals.

sana dumating na iyong dapat dumating. in the meantime, Skyrim at transcribing interviews.

why am I still at home?

(oh hello 600th published post!)

Bah humbug.

PhilHealth will be releasing funds for treatment of Sendong victims in both accredited and non-accredited health facilities.

Something is wrong with me. I'm thinking too much like a manager. This is a logistic and bureaucratic nightmare. I feel for the people who will be handling the tracking, disbursement and reimbursement of funds.

Apparently, people already know what is wrong and what needs to be done to be prepared. You think a country which experiences at least 20 typhoons a year would be better prepared for these things.

 

or google help sendong. There are lot's of ways. My feed is full of links and probably, yours is too.

let's be selfish for a moment.


I want a new canon body (60D), a zoom lens with further reach (up to 200mm), new prime lenses (10mm, 35mm, 100mm), an external flash unit (yongnuo is fine, canon is better), hardbound copies of the final "book" of Wheel of Time, a roundtrip ticket to Japan, a new stethoscope, a Welch-Allyn diagnostic set, tennis strings, tennis shorts and clothes (shirts, slacks and jeans) that fit properly.

I obviously need a well paying job in  the future.

Finding it hard to function and it's not just due to the lack of sleep. This is might become one of the worst breaks ever.

I don't think I've ever been this busy for TRP. Being involved in the stage design, assisting at the backstage and at the gates, teaching dance steps, practicing a very difficult dance routine, practicing the choral piece and documenting the midnight set-up. I had roughly the same number of performances. I think what drained me is the all-nighter for setting-up the stage design. It's a good thing that I'm in the benign part of Pedia. Benign, meaning, I don't have to study for preceptorials or SGDs.

The following day was fun too. I got some new books, bought Pedia stuff and met Jesus and Margie Holmes. Had fun shooting haters too.
