| OVERVIEW
On my first day in Med school, I was quite astonish to see beautiful faces of my co-Medtech batchmates stroll along the hallways of school. Yes and finally, we are indeed MEDICINE STUDENTS! I had mass together with my college friends and saw a couple of eager-beaver freshies too. We ate lunch at Hotshots. Actually, I feel sad about the fact that I don't have my girlfriends with me in Med school. It's not that I am not happy with my boy-friends (meaning friends na lalaki), of course I am definitely happy. It just that, it feels different not being with them around. We used to eat together as a group, both of us boys and girls, and now, it's just me and the whole boys crew. I felt like crying the moment I realized that this was happening. I can't be with them like we used to be. Greys and Radha, whom i've been with for 4 straight years . . from 1st year first days down to lrt days (we used to go home together everyday). . to 2nd year, 3rd year and 4th year . . The memories are flashing. I've been so attached to them that I treat them like sisters already. I know we'll be friends forever and we'll hang out sometime. I promise that I will find time to be with you guys. I promise that! Czer and Jella who become my close buddies too during our 3rd year. Our friendship goes on and on. I believe that we will always be US friends, and nothing, not even time, could change that.
We had our lecture on History of Medicine. Then, went to SM to buy school supplies. I went home and read the handouts given.
The following day is the official 1st day in Med. We were over 120 in a class, had class in a really big room, like a mini-auditorium type. We had thorough discussion for the whole day about Physiology and Biochemistry, from 7-4pm. And the weird thing was we only had a 30 minute lunch break! Gosh, imagine that! How will I be able to stand this? By the way, we were addressed as DOCTORS already. I can't believe that someone's already calling me a doctor. Hahaha! I feel I'm in cloud nine! Even my smile is stretching up to my ears! I'm glad that I've learned a lot of things today. Good day for me.
I'll do a great job in Med School! I assure you that!

| NEW JOURNEY BEGINS TOMORROW
I can't hardly believe it. Today, my summer vacation has just ended and tomorrow is the start of Medicine life. Months before, I was just blabbing about med school. And just so you know, it's around the corner already. I'm quite excited to wear my new white uniform, signifying that I am a MED STUDENT. Years ago, I was envying Med students. I wished I'm already one but then I realized, I'd go there soon and I have to finish college first before entering Med school. Basically, the primary reason why I chose Medtech is for pre-med purpose only. But having graduated cum laude exemplifies all bitterness. I realized that there is more for me in Med school. Medtech is not just a pre-med; it's a profession. But my case was different. It's something that would be my stepping stone towards my ultimate dream goal. I'm glad that I chose Medtech. I never had any single regrets or whatsoever that I've been in UST Medtech. They molded me into a better person of what I become now. Thank you UST! Thank you St Jude. Most of all, thank you Lord for granting my prayers. Thank you very much. Everything I have achieved this graduation is the best reward I've ever had in my life.
I hope I can make this. And I know I will. Tomorrow morning when I wake up, it would be the official start of my new life as I venture through the paths of Med school. I'd attend the university mass for blessing. I will do well this week. I cannot say I am ready for this. Actually I am not 100% ready but I will be ready, soon. My mind has been stagnant for over a year nows (imagine having your 1 year internship program + extended summer vacation) so it's hard to regain my old study habits. But when I get there, I promise that I will give my 100% effort and prayers. I'll also pray for everyone.
Break a leg MED STUDENTS! We'll become good doctors someday. .

| THE RUNDOWN
Sorry if I fail to keep you posted on my recent updates. I actually forgot to; been busy watching korean flicks. I've done watching Boys over flowers. It was really good, but I love Hana Yori Dango (the Japanese version), better. Having completely done watching BOF didn't stop me. I continued watching another japanese series, it's 1 litre of tears, a drama which was highly recommended by my cousin. I'm not done yet, but hopefully tomorrow, I will. Anyway, I would give a complete rundown of how my remaining summer days have been through.
Wednesday
- NBA game 3. The Orlando Magics won! Hahaha! Sorry, I am not a big fan of Lakers eversince. 2-1 naa! Happy fake birthday Popoy! I went out with Chen at Rob Galleria, my treat. We were craving for Wham! Burger but we got disappointed because the store already closed, so we ate at BK instead. I also bought Burt's bees lip balm and had makeup searching. I had a great day with Chen! Thanks for the date.
Thursday
- St. Jude day with Greys. And fortunately for us, we bumped in across Jella and Czer. Had a short bonding together before heading home. I also found out that UST Med results would probably be out by Monday or anytime next week. GOSH! Haven't they realized that classes are going on by that time? Incoming students may find it hard to cope up with the missed topics. Tsktsk.
Friday
- Magics lost. Damn! Paid for dorm and met up with B. We ate ice cream on our way home. Then we went to Liana's supermarket to buy pancit canton and skittles. Funny how things went there. We heard the Liana's supermarket jingle and we kept on laughing our ass off! Hahaha! I can't help but laugh each time I remember how it was sang. It really made my day. LOL.
Saturday
- We went to Bagac, Bataan to have the initial survey of our beach house 'kuno'. Hahaha! Well, it was not really a beach house; most likely, it would be a kubo or nipa hut house. Hahaha! We went home at around 5:30. I was so tired and watched One litre of tears. Gosh. . Med school is already on Monday! I can't believe it either.
2 days left! Gosh!
Tips for incoming Medtech freshie:
I personally did this for my very new reader, April. Thanks for subscribing! Anyway, 1st year medtech would be really difficult. You may encounter a culture shock. Time is very essential and the professors never waste time discussing lessons. The pacing of lessons is really, really fast compared to HS when our lecture is made easy by our teachers. The most important thing is that you understand the lessons hard enough and it would be a good advice to breeze through your lessons over and over. I also suggest that you do advance reading. Well, you'll be given a copy of your syllabus so at least, you have an idea of the topics. Quizzes and exams are TOUGH! In college, even if your professors ask if you have any questions, they actually don't mind if you understand the topic so never hesitate to ask them for clarifications. Zoology would be really hard for starters so better focus on that subject. Chemistry is like HS chemistry. If you already have a good background of HS chem, well, you'll make good grades in your chemistry. You should love Chemistry because a lot of subjects in the higher years entails Chemistry. So I hope I did help. Anyway, feel free to ask questions if you have.

| ONE WEEK LEFT
and it's school time once again!
As much as happy I am that classes were delayed to next week, that feeling also equates to how terrified I really feel, every single waking day for Med school. Okay, so the story goes on and on. I keep on blogging on the same feelings over and over again for every entry. But now, it's more serious, really S-E-R-I-O-U-S. I mean, would someone feel the same thing? Of course not! Only those people who are going to med school shares the same with me. Likewise, some students would also fear about attending school, like incoming freshies who are getting into college. In college, everything's new; new professors, new friends, new school and new environment. To tell you what, I've conquered college. At first, I was so hilarious of getting to college but I felt a little anxious in a way. My teacher back in HS told me that college is a lot more difficult than HS. According to her, it is "survival of the fittest." And I am proud to say, I've been there and done that. Now the fear of moving on to another life's chapter is something I'm scared of. They say HS is 5x the difficulty of college, and college is 10x the difficulty in Med school, so I don't know how much difficulty lies ahead of me in Medicine. The only thing I know is that it is really difficult. You couldn't even imagine it. Anyway, thanks to those people who'd give pieces of advice by saying "kaya mo yan. lahat nagdadaan sa hirap" or simply, a pat on my back. Thanks really, I do appreciate it. But it's more than just that. I can't tell you exactly what I'd be going through for med and it's something that you would never, at least experience on your own. Frankly, I envy those who have their work already. I just envy my batchmates who're already earning money. But if you were to ask me, I'm still not ready for work. Haha! Moving on, I only have a week left before school starts. I maybe surprised to see the work load I'd encounter during my first weeks. I would definitely miss sleeping for long hours, and this is the biggest thing that I would miss the most. I would miss a lot of things too and that includes my family, my dearest friends, old classmates, HS batchmates, my petics life, internet, watching koreanovelas, going to St Jude every thursday, vacation. . everything. Anyway, I would surpass this and everything will pay off someday.

| STARVING
I'm on a hunger strike. No food for 20 hours straight! Would you believe?
My last food for the day was yesterday 6:30pm after our mass at St. Jude. Greys and I had dinner at McDo before we went home. I slept really late yesterday. Probably at around 5:30 am. Of course, 5:30 am is not a normal sleeping hour. In fact, that should be my normal waking hour during classes. But the good thing was, I was able to have a conversation with B. He phoned me. Yes, I can see that he still cares. I was wrong. It was a great move that he called. He also controlled sleeping today. Thanks darling.
B woke me up at 9. My eyelids were dropping. I want more sleep! But I need to do some errands for my mom. I went to the bank and you know what? The bank teller was quite astonish to see me with my dropping beautiful eyelids and punch a bad joke on me and said, "mga puyaters talaga!" Shit. How unprofessional of that guy! Would he just mind his own business? Why would he dare butt in with mine? My day was not a good start and please, don't just add fuel to the fire and mess around me. I hate that teller. Anyway it was a bad move of him to do such thing and just so he knows, I was controlling my temper and if I failed to do so, (hmmp) better see it for yourself dude. You don't want to be publicly humiliated, don't you?
Anyway, as soon as I arrived home, there's no rice again. So I have to cook first for my brothers even if I was really on the verge of sleeping. As soon as I'm done, B phoned up again. We had a quick talk then I slept. I woke up again at around 1:30 and saw a couple of messages from my friends. Anyway, the news of the day is classes will resume on June 15, 2009. The news is already official so hail to another extended week of summer break. Haha!
I ate and took a bath. I was starving hard. My lunch was really incomplete and I still feel hungry. Then I decided to eat my favorite burger on earth, Wham! Burger. I have been craving for this since the start of the week. Anyway, I went to SM Marikina. It was my 2nd time there. Surprisingly, it's not so big at all but a better version of SM San Lazaro and SM Manila. Hahaha! While waiting for my burger, I was counting seconds because I have been longing for this for the week and now is the time to eat my favorite burger. When my burger arrived, I ate and finished it for a short span of time. I feel great afterwards. It was one of the best meals I've ever had! Then I bought snacks and went home. It was raining hard again. Then my parents arrived and dinner time again.
I'm sleepy already. *Yawn* Goodnight everyone!
