the best thing about leaving
is the reading which I have forgotten in weeks or poetry writing in your house at the garage where the cats sleep or at the red sofa that sinks or perhaps, at the garden ah, yes! the garden where we hear the words your house speaks * this is my take on Larry’s “Leaving Reading” post. i don’t know how to write poetry as great as he does, but maybe, just maybe, i’ll...

our bloody / funny valentine
6.58am. late, sleepy and hungry. first thing i saw when i entered the ER: blooooody. i am not supposed to talk more about that. but it was just really bloody. and i said, "wow, outstanding valentine's day! everything is red, including the uniforms (of the previous shift)."
7.30am. a chat with the colleagues.
code nurse (me): so, how's your pre-valentine date with the gf?
e.r. 2: *scratches head* i bought a bouquet of roses.
*scratches head* i treated her for dinner
*scratches head* chocolates
*scratches head*
e.r. 1: wow, you look like you were forced!
endoscopy nurse: *shakes head* i am dismayed with boys
code nurse: and i'd like to add, *scratches head* "gas pa sa kotse!" it's a good thing we're girls.
endoscopy nurse: korek!
welllll, i had my french macarons. and a bar of dark chocolate.
and did i say i had barbaresco orientals? ;p ♥
“Phew! For a moment there I thought you were smart.”

Easy, gee!
Yesternight, at around 10:30pm, after resuscitating a patient, I was trying to observe what kind of arrhythmia (abnormal heart rhythm) shown in the cardiac monitor (see picture above) and critically thinking (char!) why he’s manifesting those. I then asked one of our cardio personnels who was sitting right next to me… here’s the actual conversation:
Me: Unsa may ngalan ana...
I (have a) sore deal
Read again, if you please, the title without reading the words inside the parentheses. I sore deal. Yes, you said it right, I sore deal. Which sounds pretty much like something that could relieve chest pain. I sore deal, I mean, Isordil!
Isordil® (isosorbide dinitrate) Titradose® tablets are indicated for the prevention of angina pectoris due to coronary artery disease.
The underlined words...
Video killed the rended star
This certainly isn’t murder, homicide or any heinous crime. Not one has been harmed, in any physical aspect (well, yeah, someone was harmed but that was prior to this incident). But this is about a video, caught early in the morning. A video not by any chance edited, directed, nor produced. A video that caused quiet a commotion. A video related to the paragraph 5 of my previous post. A video...

Definition of terms
One of the definite things someone has to start with (other than Hi! Hello! Je m’appelle Maria! yadiyadiyah!) is to somehow define, in common and simple terms, the word(s) we call as the “title.”
In this case, it’s gravity.
Pronunciation: \ˈgra-və-tē\
Function: noun
Inflected Form(s): plural grav·i·ties Usage: often attributive
Etymology: Middle French or...
