BSMT2 just passed -- the next level

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".

Summer 2012

Summer 2012- Traditionally, this is the "last" real summer of Velezian Medtechs. It is done after 2nd year of the course. It gives the students the opportunity to recharge themselves before sacrificing themselves as tributes on third year. 


BSMT3- This could be like Hunger Games. (As what our ates and kuyas who went through this told us). It is the real battle for Velezian Medtechs. Students are faced into a fierce arena wherein they will discover their true skills and fortune on this course. 


As for now as a medtech student, I'm still in the "recharging stage". Before bidding adieu to 2nd year, most of my fellow medtechs planned about summer. Because it's the "last" real summer, they planned to make it epic and unforgettable like going to beach, summer outing and it could be like unforgettable journey like travelling to another country. They said these might not happen again forever. Supposed, I planned for a summer job. My mom refused at first then suddenly, she allowed me. Then I realized that it's not really worth it to enter a summer job. Yes, I could earn money but I might end myself stressed. Not mentally stressed but physically stressed. 


This summer, I still made my usual routine during summers in high school. Sleeping-eating-internet-watching tv. Due to boredom, I added some activities-- studying (I admit it, for the preparation on third year, but I only do it one hour a day) and reading books (not related to my course)..


I may not have the opportunity to experience the unwinding activities like my other batchmates do on summer. But I guess what I'm doing right now is better. I already have a chance to ponder on my future and also this is a better recharge for me for third year. I don't want to start up nothing on third year. 

I don't wanna end being screwed up

Kung Hei Fat Choi...

Well I just had a great chat with a high school friend of mine.

Last Saturday, I was so happy the midterms ended plus there's a "long weekend" but now, Oh my, I think I'm screwed up coz the "long weekend" is almost over and tomorrow,.. ooopsie...

If last week, I was worried about the exams.. well now, it seems I'm worried about the RESULTS of the exams..

Yes, I was screwed up last midterms, in health care.. oh my, I was freaked out when I answered the test questions.. :( It's fvcking hard... PHGC, which I expected to be harder seemed to be easier. And Health Econ.. where the heck is our teacher's promise? He told us that we'll only answer one item and in the exam, we were told to answer all of those problems? Okay fine, as long as we're exempted in finals. That would be the first and the last term exam in Health Econ..

I didn't also expect that Math would be the easiest exam. Thanks to our teacher. Oh no, Spanish, I just realized that I forgot something. Well, I'm just hoping for miracles :(. Well, Janelle told me that I cannot change what is written on the blue book... Wa na tay mahimo

Okay... Finals... Bawi na lang ko.. may ganie midterms pa...

hell week before midterms

I am currently here in the library. Thank God coz we have no lab management class. Instead of strollong around, I'm spending my break by making my philo assignment (i recently finished it.. it's about choosing passages from the holy bible and koran then relating them about the human person.. something like that..) and studying for the phgc exam tomorrow.
This week is indeed a blast of hell..so far, here are some of the details

monday night- I painted my carved soap then finished all my Statistics exercises. I ended up sleepless.

tuesday- I was pissed off by the taxi driver who cheated on his meter and we paid a larger amount..

wednesday- That was such an embarrassing day.. I don't have the confidence to post it here but if you really want to know about it, just ask me personally. The exams in statistics was mind-boggling. Thank God because the cytogenetics midterm exam was heavenly easy, I guess.

Tomorrow will be another freaky exam in PHGC (Philippine History, Government and Constitution). I'm expecting that it will be tough. And also health care long exam on saturday then procession pa jud. I hope I could go home conveniently and safely.. Next will be the Midterm Examinations. Ergo, I will not go out on Sinulog. I'd rather devote myself to Sto. Nino by studying..

okay.. continue sah ko ug study
