I guess it’s all about the timing but for some reason I can only think up of the negative things that’s happened this March 2009. I really had a hard time coming up with this rundown; so much so that I even had to re-read my past posts. Ah well.
1. I’ve been sort of busy this month so the movie marathons have come to a screeching halt. I haven’t been inside a theater in two weeks now and I don’t think I’ll be back anytime soon.
2. On the upside, I am done with the Intravenous Therapy completion duty. Now all I need are two more staff nurses’ signatures on my completion form then I’m done!
3. I got to reflect on life and death this month; one grandmother died this month and a cousin’s kid had been baptized into the world.
4. Just recently got into a fight with my mother; a first because it was very civil.
5. I bonded with my cousins from my mother’s side last weekend, which rocked. It was the first time I actually got to talk and drink with them, which brings me to the next item:
6. I got wasted. After a very long dry spell, I finally got wasted, for two night in a row, actually.
7. My cousins and I experienced an exorcism of sorts. I’ll write more about this later.
8. Unfortunately I’ve neglected praying the Holy Rosary everyday; I’ve missed two days of prayer but because of the exorcism experience, I don’t think I’ll be missing it anytime soon.
9. I got to see the Comedy Cartel show twice. The first one I saw because Nicole treated us, but I ended up missing most of it anyway. And the second one I organized, because I missed my college classmates and I wanted them to experience a different kind of comedy.
10. After who knows how long I’ve finally roamed Makati for a night. It’s one of my simple joys in life, walking aimlessly in a place with a bunch of friends. It’s always enjoyable.
11. I finished my book of the month on time. Jane Austen really is a genius.
12. I got to bond with the other board top-notchers during the Annual Recognition Day.
13. I think I’ve come to accept the fact that I’m not really going to be a staff nurse in Maktai Medical Center. I’m truly happy for my friends who’re now working there, but I guess it’s just really not for me.
14. My father finally blew his top off over my lack of NCLEX progress. Good, that should buy me a few more weeks.
15. Obviously I’m being attacked by a wave of pessimism. I hope by this time next month I’ll be over it.
