Inspection?

Two days ago HAAD came to clinic for the Health Facility inspection. I am not sure if it went well because it was my first time to be in a clinic audit for acquiring Health Facility license. Two gentlemen came for the inspection and they are extremely knowledgeable.

It was chaotic. Though I was not trembling, it was a bit terrifying that these people are asking too many things. Somehow I caught myself speechless and just stared at them.

The gentlemen stayed for an hour and half, checked thoroughly all the SOPPs, the facility, talked to the medical professionals, chat a little and went.

No coffee break, no tea break. That’s it!

People said we might fail, but still we hope for the best, hopefully we’ll pass.

Budget for Uniforms Next Year.. YAY!

Recently, we received a new set of medical uniforms and the clinic is preparing for the budget for the healthcare uniform, healthcare uniforms next year. The clinic wants to get discount medical scrubs without sacrificing the quality.

The previous uniforms we had are very good quality and we hope that they would procure the same. Procuring same would result less mistakes for uniform sizes and style.

I love my uniforms. Like I mentioned before, we have this cream-colored top and navyblue-colored trousers. I love the combination and the make, yet if the will provide new set of colors for the new uniforms, absolutely fine with me.

Let’s see how it goes. :)

FRENCH TIP MANICURE, yey!

I was so affectionate having my fingernails done and it makes so gone mad seeing a set of manicure paraphernalia plus the new French manicure nail polish I recently bought.

Fact: my fingernails are small, unformed, so-not-ladylike, in short, ugly.

Not my purpose to go to this shop, it just so happen I was passing by and checked. It is somewhere in Naif, in Day to Day to be in particular, and it comes with transparent, French pink and French white color. It is definitely a combo. Well, the item does not cost so much so it was not afterall pain in my pocket.

Now, im ready to get my fingernails done. Will sure add some photos later.

Wish to wear scrubs at work...

It was just a mere desire to work in a medical centre before but truly blessings come by surprise, it has been 7months now since I start working at Emal Occupational Health Clinic. I truly love the idea of giving care and support to the patients, Im so in love with the job. The work load is exciting and challenging everyday. And it is demanding and sometimes frustrating.

What I love most are the uniforms. Most especially the scrub clothing where nurses are wearing, I even ask my manager if I could have one for myself, but yet I am not allowed to wear it because I am not a nurse, I am admin support. If the nurses look fabulous wearing their nursing scrubs, the doctors stood gracefully in their lab coat and doctors’ coat.

I once tried putting on scrub and felt like I was Callie Torres of Grey’s Anatomy. Funny, but it feels so good.

Oh well, admin staff have different set of uniforms. At least, the ‘medical team’ stitched on the left sleeve of the blouse makes me one of the medical staff. Im satisfied afterall.

Munchee Milk Shortcake, my NEW fave!

Like five months ago, my blog was under pressure. The blogger team had accused me of stealing info from other websites whom I admittedly introduce to the wide public as one of my personal favorite things. Most of the products I talked about in this blog named to be my likes. People never pay me to do so. It is a sweet recognition to the products I enjoy eating and using. And if I purposely named them, shouldn’t they be thankful they were advertised for FREE?!

Ok, enough.

To continue, ehem, just recently i have discovered this unfamiliar biscuit. LOL. They actually named it Shortcakes. And if you would come to a grocery store, you hardly will recognize it for the simple label and unattractive packaging. Because of that, I now believe in the saying ‘Don’t judge the book by its cover!’ for it is saying like, ‘Don’t judge the food by it packing.’ LOL

I was not so sure why of all the biscuits I could pick there, I picked that one, the Munchee Milk Shortcakes. A lame blue packing and a simple glass of milk with biscuit printed on it. Perhaps I got tired of eating the usual Chocolate Chip Cookies, Butter Cookies and all kind of cookies and crackers.

So despite the poor presentation of the product, the product itself is nonetheless very good. Yeah, am telling you, the shortcakes are so delicious. I thought it was just my personal preference that I became to love it, but when I shared it with my colleagues at work, they love it too.

Words from the mouth as it is, spreads like thousand molecules in vast horizon. I love it, my colleagues love it, even their roommates became to love it.

If you want to know, you better try it.

Chocolate Lavish

Patchi?! Ring a bell?

When it comes to chocolate, Patchi is a brand that blew my mind. It is chocolatey delicious! Don’t think it is just a type of chocolate you can simply buy whenever you like because buying this brand of chocolate means you lavishly like to spend big bucks for a box of it.

Approximately, 1 box of Patchi is worth around 300 dirhams. Let’s convert --- 3000plus PHP.
Imagine that?!

So, when a friend of mine brought so many Patchi chocolate, I enjoyed each and every single bite of it. =P

Biryani, my friend!

I’m addicted to Biryani!

No one’s gonna dare to taste dishes that looks so alienated to your eyes. The first time Biryani was served into our table, I was doubtful if I can even eat a spoonful.

Biryani is a dish made with spices, rice, meat and vegetables. The spices and condiments used in biryani may include ghee, peas, beans, cumin, cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, bay leaves, coriander and mint leaves, ginger, onions, and garlic. The main ingredient that accompanies the spices is the meat—beef, chicken, goat, lamb, or shrimp. The dish may be served with dahi chutney or Raita, korma, curry, a sour dish of eggplant or a boiled egg.

There are varieties of biryani; the more I try one variety, the more I like biryani. Haha.

Looking for "Yahoo Status Changer"?

Phews. I can’t imagine how this ‘yahoo status changer’ ate almost an hour of my time. Aha. Silly right?

I have tried about 3 softwares already just to have the feature, and all of them failed me. Hehe. Well, until I bumped into Winamp website in their plugins section. Jeez, I had all the trouble of going into so many websites to look for the freeware that is downloadable on the website which I should have checked first.

I downloaded YM Status Mixer from the Winamp website, installed it on my PC, run and viola! My yahoo status changer is up and working!

Once you run the program, an color blue spherical-icon in the task pane is shown. Double click it or right-click to (1)Change Status Message, (2)Define Quotes, and (3)Change Yahoo ID.

The software is compatible with my YM v8 and winamp v5. Don't know though if it's compatible with higher/lesser versions.

Want to try it? Have it here.

Are you an Anime lover?

I am a certified anime love and I am really fond of watching anime. As a matter of fact, I already watched tons and tons of anime and couldn’t even remember all of them. But of course, I have my favorite picks among them. And to name few of my them, I gathered their official logos (see below).

List above are just few of my favorite anime series and movies. So if you are an anime lover like me, I am open for recommendation. Share you favorite anime movie and series, and I will not hesitate to check it out.

What do you like about Davao?

Have you been to Davao? Do you live in Davao?

I was posting something in a forum when I realized that my post is worthy to be post elsewhere. Then I remember my blog. (hah!) Funny but I seldom visit my blog earlier. Some other things keep me busy. Needless to say, it's good to back blogging.

So, back to the question. What do i like about Davao? Hmmm… This is my post in a certain forum which will answer that sensitive question.

“Most of my friends dreamed to work elsewhere, can be in Manila, Abroad or even in the US. Most of them spent thousand of pesos just to fulfill those dreams. Perhaps, they’re just taking everything rush. Nonetheless, after several years or months away from Davao City, it’s easy for them to say that they still love Davao and it’s good to be backed home. Davao City is the friendliest city I’ve known and I’m proud of that. Don’t you? Dare to forget the beaches in Talomo, the Gap in Maa, the Shrine in Matina, even the bay view of Magsaysay Park, the peaceful community, the delicious dishes and specialties and the durian. It’s hard and you will nod for sure.”

One thing that I am very proud of is my face. Yup, because it’s smooth and clean; I don’t have spots, pimples, even blackheads and whiteheads. I usually replace my facial wash from one brand to another until I used Eskinol Natural Facial Wash.

I love it because it refreshes and energizes my skin with its soft vitamin C bursting beads.

Be Fashionista!

Fashion is a free expression of style and creativity. Want to become glamorous? Do it yourself. Be resourceful to create your own style and creation. Fashion is not a hobby; it’s a devotion to self’s satisfaction. If you lack confidence to be glamorous outside, then make yourself at home.

What’s in and hot? If you were to buy Fashion Magazines, clothing lines and accessories quite changing every now and then. Mishandling a style may lead to the destruction of the fashion statement itself.

BOLERO is in! It is a short and cute cropped jacket. It’s easy to be in style with a bolero. Just think of making in your outfit by pairing one with colored tee, tank, tube or halter. Instead of using cardigan and sweaters, a Bolero shrug goes with everything from tube tops to cute tanks. Dress it up or down with trousers or jeans, and try different materials for the tanks.

Leggings are in too. Girls, leggings are not pants. Since long top, blouses and even dresses are today’s fave outfit, leggings goes well with them. When you’re wearing leggings, you must cover your crotch and butt with those tops. We are not in the gym so it’s a NO-NO to topped legging with short-length tops. Leggings are trendy, more tuck-able than jeans, and warmer than tights. Moreover, leggings are slimming. Be glamorous. Try this super slimming style with body-skimming layering over leggings; just wear a longest layer on the bottom being an upper-thigh-grazing tank top and top layer being a lower-waist length 3/4-sleeve Henley.

Accessories make a separate statement. For accessories, shoes, bags and everything in-between needs collaboration. Metallic flip flops and slouched bags are in. This season brings oversized sunglasses(sample worn by Hollywood Stars) and chunky beaded necklaces and bracelets. Necklaces are not only big and bold, but they're also long - it can be looped in layers or worn as one long, dramatic necklace. Fashion belts are also in. You can be in style wearing belts above the waistline, on the hips, and on the perfect waistline spot. Large belts are stylish.

Where to get these stuffs? Be wise shopper. If you want quality, buy at respective boutiques like Loalde and Sari-Sari. If you’re brand conscious, best to buy at Karimadon, Oxygen, Mags, newly opened For Me (SM), Bayo and Kamiseta. Bear in mind, these boutiques are money suckers so be ready with your crispy bills and credit cards. If in case, you’re in-between, you can be fashionable with Herbench, Penshoppe and Human. Not bad, right?! Tips also can be found in the department stores ladies section of Gaisano Mall, SM and Gaisano South Citimall. You can also visit also Gaisano Mall’s Options and SM’s Salad Dressings. However, if you’re tight in budget but you want to be fashionable, you can grab these stuffs in China Town (Uyanguren), you can get there the most affordable stuffs for fashion but these are not branded clothing and sometimes lack quality. Now, if you want branded stuff at a very affordable price, the place to get them is in Ukay-Ukay.

So there. Be fashionable by your means. It feels great to be glamorous.

Promises are made for what?

Promises are made to be broken. It’s a very painful reality. And I can attest to that. Why it is people make promises that they can’t keep? I hate to say this, but I knew a lot of people who does not have that what we so called “Word of Honor”. Before, I used to make promises but I ended up done nothing of it. We often fight (me and bi) because of those broken promises. And it hurts us both. So, we’ve learned from our mistakes. We decided not to make statements which are doubtful. It would be much better if it come in surprise.

Then, why it is we need to promise? To hurt somebody or maybe to give false expectation to the person we gave our promises? Didn’t we realize it’s really painful to be fooled with those lies and be cheated? Those liars don’t mean to be with anyone else in the world (well, they can be with those people just like them). These people don’t deserve any happiness, and they are not entitled to have our attention. So, don’t ever waste your tears to these people. They also need to learn their lessons and it is only GOD can do that.

So, I suggest. Don’t make promises that you can’t keep.

Blogging?

I was fascinated in reading the blogs of my friends. i get to know even more those ppl whom i haven't had the time(lots of time) to talk to. They were merely my batch mates or one of my long lost classmates. It is undeniable to tell that blogs does a lot of favors to their users. Friends can communicate easily with it and through blogs, people can get to the bottom of a person's emotions and feelings. There were huge numbers of emotions i read on different blogs i visit. Sometimes DEEP THINKING is a requirement to catch up what really a certain blog means. Well, If only i can tell rather i can share those blogs of people that are worth reading. Some of the blogs that i visit most were of my batch mate's blogs. I am so excited of seeing people climbing (if not racing) to the top of their career and emphasizing their hard works in dealing with new environment and strangers.

It is my dream to go around the world, explore the beauty of the nature, to travel and to have fun. There might be places where it is impossible for me to come but through my friends' blog, i got to journey with them. There were experiences in life that is worth learning. Disappointments, hatred, anger, sorrow, confusion are some of the main issues i read here yet HAPPINESS, EXCITEMENT, SUCCESS, CONTENTMENT, JOY, and DETERMINATION are few of the good side of it. It's so nice to learn that people experienced bad things, struggled to solve it and learned from it. And i am glad, that i was part of it. Being INVOLVED is good especially if people excites, educates and learns from it.

It's A BLESSING from God that we are still alive. We still have millions of chances, opportunities and trials ahead of us. We should thank HIM for everything.

God Bless Us All... Have a good day friend!

The basket of my dreams

How i spent the days of my life?

at last! the day that i have been waiting for has come. i really want to take some rest. i am so exhausted this semester and knowing that it will now come to an end is a good idea. i've been spending my time(12 hours a day) in my e-Lab. i've been wondering if i made my life to the fullest or have i gone to a dead-end of my career?

as i look back in my one(1) year of serving this institution, i could see that there were several changes in my life. Teaching and staff really made some differences. Though i miss teaching, it never came to my mind that i will apply for a teaching position in this institution after getting my regular status as IT Staff. Spending time in e-Learning department isn't bad anyway! i love it here. However, after one(1) year of being boxed with this room, i felt like i wasn't able to explore to world totally.

i am so AMBITIOUS!...which i really don't exactly like. i used to tell myself that it's better to keep on dreaming and be ambitious than spending my entire life with the same routine over and over again. i see it positively, if i'll stop hoping then i'm giving myself a "thin" line for a better future. but the sad thing there, i really can't remember now when was the last time i think about getting myself into one(1) level higher. I could see myself static. The world keeps on turning, but i couldn't even justify why i forgot to mae myself be someone that i want to be in the near future. Why i stop aiming?

Does it mean, i'll end up daydreaming? Nope, i won't let this happen. i am not frustrated(which ppl term me once :P) because i haven't even try it a little harder and never did i feel that way. i know i stepped 2 ladders already after i graduated.. but it wasn't enough for me to stop.i know someday i'll get to the top. Sooner or later, i know i'll be. i need to decide now... but where, on what, and how?
