BSMT2-- This is another episode of an unfinished soap opera of mine which is medical technology. Before I proceed to the next episode, let me share to you in this blog my reflections of the previous episode. It is not just about academic knowledge but how it influences my total well-being as a daughter, as a sister, as a friend, as a classmate and of course, as FRANZ. (This is a sequel of the post BSMT1 just passed last June 9, 2011
This episode introduces me different friends. Anatomy and Physiology which told me a great story about the homeostasis and the feedbacks of my body. It increases the extracellular calcium secretion of my cardiac muscle every Fridays due to its lecture exams. There also came Spanish which twisted my tongue for the entire year. There I discovered that inanimate things have genders too like the male eraser (el borrador), the female ax (la hacha), the female milk (la leche) and a the male cabinet (el aparador). Why don't Spanish language pave even a single way for gays and lesbos? There's also Biochemistry which almost hydrolyzed us to simple amino acids, nucleic acids, monosaccharides and fatty acids. There's health care too which left us with empty pockets due to a good-for one semester uniform and also a kit which weren't used in the semester. There is a secret murderer called laboratory management which was friendly at the first glance. Also, Statistics, which we rely our fortunes in our calculator. Let's not forget Cytogenetics--An alleluia for the test papers. Other friends converted us to different professions like PHGC (Philippine History Government and Constitution) which turned us into lawyers in one sem by solving case studies about the fundamental law of the land-- The Philippine Constitution. Then there's literature which turned us into actors and actresses. Lastly here's health economics which made us into gamblers-- Sadly, gamblers of our grades.
Let us not just end this up to the aforementioned different friends. A syllabus sucks when not applied. There is always a conclusion in every episode though it's still relying on the next.
When it comes to academics, I've done better than the previous year. Surprises came which I didn't expect ever. But I should not be complacent just because that happened. Honestly, I haven't done my best yet. There is an evil procrastination that seemed to possess me. There are still things I've made that I should not repeat on the next episode.
When it comes to people, I'll still rank it a pro. In this semester, I admit that I still acquire a "wonder-woman wanna be" character. There were times that I was the one who worked out on the mess of other people though there's still mine that I can't even work out. The hidden characters of some friends who I've known since from the start of college revealed slowly and slowly. I also met a new friend of mine who has unpleasant impression from others yet I've known her differently from those impressions. She indeed became one of my closest friends in the block.
Being almighty isn't really unlimited. I learned that from the experience of a virtual brother of mine. I ascertained that the purpose of taking this course is not to be an "anointed one" but for the lessons that one must acquire. I should acquire those lessons because I want to be a great medical technologist and a doctor someday.
I also realized that it's wrong to judge a teacher immediately. I had a teacher who I thought was strict and inconsiderate because he appeared to be so at the start. I even loathed his subject because I thought it was useless. Days went by, his real color appeared slowly which was brighter. Fortunately, I aced in his subject. Thanks for the grade sir. I also met an egocentric teacher. His subject was a relative, I mean a son of another subject which is my mortal enemy. I considered him egocentric because it seems like he doesn't want to be beaten-up by his students when it comes to knowledge. I observed it through the way he discuss. But he, being egocentric helped me a lot. Because of his character, I really studied well in his subject and those were really worth. Miraculously, I got a grade which I didn't ever expected.
Patience-- This could mainly be the best virtue in the whole school year. Honestly, it is this year that I burst all my temper for crying out loud because of some catastrophes. There were times that I became too impatient. Still, it is really better to be patient though others are not. I realized that it's like stabbing myself and I almost like stabbed others as well. I should be ready for the next episode then which could be worse.
In this year, I knew my self even more than the previous year. I started planning for the future. Kung sa math pa, I'm still on ongoing solution for my final answer. Of course I should not forget to make my mother and sister as part of it. All that I'll do is really for them.
In the next episode, I should improve. That's the most crucial part of this entire soap opera. Maybe sequel of this will be longer. Just stay tuned until I post "BSMT3 just passed".
