REMEMBER AND BELIEVE WHAT HE SAID. . . 

"ROOM NURSE"

I've watched this video over the weekend as I saw this posted on my news feed in Facebook. A lot of my friends (RNs, underboard or even student nurses) were raging in anger as they share this video. I got curious and watched to know what she really said. And gawd! it got into my nerves!

I was shaking in anger the moment I read the highlight of her statement during the interview..

Grabe! "Hindi naman sila kailangan ganoon kagaling"  as she stated... Parang hindi nya alam kung anong sinasabi nya. And, parang hindi naman ganun ka-konektado yung sagot nya.. (or siguro di ko lang na-gets?) but still, sana she used the right words. She's so.....uggggggghhhhhh!!

Hindi dapat ganun kagaling ang mga nurses??? Parang sa statement nya para kaming tinanggalan ng karapatan na mag-excel sa profession namin! Hays!



Buti na lang may ganitong mga interview, nakikita mga ugali ng mga pulitiko. It helps the people to know the candidates better, so they can choose and vote wisely. 

This news circulated on different social networking sites since last Friday until now.  The posts earned negative feedbacks from people especially from nurses; the nursing communtiy. I felt their anger and agreed on some of their comments. But, there are also people who are still in favor of  Mrs. Villar and defending her. This pisses me off! I know everyone has their freedom to express their opinion, but I'm sorry, their comments really pissed me off. 

Some says na bakit daw nagagalit ang mga nurses, siguro daw totoo, "Truth hurts" daw. Others said, totoo naman daw kasi yung mga nurse daw ginagrab yung caregiver slot para makapunta and makapagtrabaho sa ibang bansa. hays! The nerve!!! Nagsalita ang mga walang alam! Susme! 

This is my take on their comments. Sana alamin muna nila pinagsasabi nila. The reasons why. Do you even know why nurses grab the caregiver slots just to be employed and get their ass out of this country???? Para sa mga di nakakaalam ng rason, eto po yun! THEY GRAB THE CHANCE TO BE EMPLOYED, KASI WALA NAMAN TRABAHONG MAIBIGAY ANG BANSANG ITO PARA SA MGA NURSES. If you'll search it in the internet, madami po ang unemployed nurses dito sa Pilipinas. Isa na din yan sa rason why most of the nursing graduates take their chance in the BPO industry. Maraming nurse na nagkalat jan sa mga callcenters. Mahirap ang buhay dito sa Pilipinas kaya pinapasok nila ang ganung trabaho to earn for a living. We have a lot of hospitals nga dito sa Pilipinas pero most of them, they take nurses for granted! At hindi basta basta nakakapasok sa isang ospital. Madami jan, pinagvovolunteer muna ang mga nurse.. Walang allowance man lang. And in most cases pa, the nurses are the one who's paying the hospitals pa for training. Nakakaloka di ba? Inaabuso na kame tapos mamaliitin pa ng mga pulitiko. This is too much! Sana lang talaga before they speak against us, please try to put yourself on our situation.

Oh well... Last night, Mrs. Villar sent out her apologies to those people who were hurt by her statement,thru an interview by TV Patrol, especially to the nursing community. She said that she has a high regard to nurses.

Of course, many are not convinced by her apology. Some are still mad at her. As they say, Damage has been done. May lamat na.


I am wondering if she really want this. I mean this, to run as a senatorial candidate. It seems like she's not that ready. (In my opinion) WELL...

My take on her apology: Yes madam, apology accepted! But this incident, I won't forget. 

Let's learn to forgive e.. Nurses let's take this as a challenge na lang. Prove them wrong. We  deserve to be better nurses, we also deserve professional growth para maging "Ganun kagaling" to serve our patients well. Everybody deserves to excel on their chosen field, they even deserve respect from others.

People of the Philippines, in this coming election, let's vote wisely. Medyo matagal pa, makakapagisip pa tayo kung sino ba dapat yung iboto natin. Yung more deserving.

yun lang.


(actually, hindi naman ako ganun ka-interesado sumawsaw sa mga isyu ng politics. I better keep quiet. It's just that this issue pissed me of and made me feel degraded...)

Remembering Lola

Happy birthday to our dear Lola Leny! :)

true friends

"A true friend knows you very well."

One of the things na narealize ko these past few months.

I have this one friend na sobrang kinukulit ako about what really happened. She didn't bite the reason I told her. Instead of believing me, she said, "Weh? Di nga? Ang babaw ng rason bakla, di ako naniniwala. Kilala kita!" (thou that's not what exactly she said, pero it's like that hehe) 

Her line "Kilala Kita.." stunned me... At first, na-touch ako.. parang sabi ko, "wow! She knows me very well.." pero ngayon ko lang naisip, mana ata sakin yun at umiiral ang pagka chismosa..hahaha (Peace my friend :P) Seriously, I was touched, and made me teary - eyed.. (drama-queen lol)

This made me realize na iba't ibang kaibigan, iba't iba din yung degree ng pagkakakilala sayo. Yung iba, kahit di ka magsalita alam nila na there's something wrong... Some friends knows you deeper, yung tipong alam nila kung kelan ka ngsisinungaling at di basta-basta paniniwalaan lahat ng sinasabi mo. para bang binabasa ka nila pati emotions mo; something like, they read you between the lines... Yung iba naman, they just believe what you say, kasi they trust you that you won't lie to them, or sometimes they respect me if I chose to be quiet and want to keep things to myself...

Well, alin man sa mga characteristics na yon, I love my friends.. :)

Nakakatuwa lang isipin na yung mga tinuturing mo na tunay na kaibigan eh kilalang-kilala ka..Every piece and every side of you, they know...they understand.. :)

People are really different from one another, ayt? It depends on how you will accept and understand them.

When I dream about you - Gracenote

There was a time in my life
When I opened my eyes and there you were
You were more than a dream
I could reach out a touch of you
Boy that was long ago

There are something's that I guess I'll never know,
When you love someone, you got to learn to let them go

When I dream about you,
That's when everything's alright
You're in my arms here next to me, forever.

When I dream about you,
Boy you never go away,
Just close my eyes, wait for my dreams.
Cause I still love, loving you

How can I get you to see
That I'm falling apart, since you've been gone
I can never be sure, I could ever let go
Your love is much too strong


There are something's that I guess I'll never know,
When you love someone, you got to learn to let them go

When I dream about you,
That's when everything's alright
You're in my arms here next to me, forever.

When I dream about you,
Boy you never go away,
Just close my eyes, wait for my dreams.
Cause I still love, loving you
