QUOTE FOR THE DAY:

"Desire is the key to motivation, but it's determination and commitment to an unrelenting pursuit of your goal -- a commitment to excellence -- that will enable you to attain the success you seek."
Mario Andretti

YEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAAAAA.

Oh THANK GOD that's over.

I had my Drug Calculations test today.

OMG. Even MORE of a BETCH than the BioSci Topic Test! LOL

Though, I MUST SAY--

I was uber dooper proud of myself today. I handled myself so well! LOL

I had the Calc. Test first up so I made sure I got up earlier- left the house earlier to beat traffic on Palmers Rd and Station Rd.
And I got there at 8.45AM.

I was rushing because I needed to consult Ate Maribel on one of the formulas for IntraVenous Therapy (without pump)--
Because on the practice test, there were 2 questions that I could NOT understand for the life of me!

As in, no matter HOW MANY TIMES I did it, or how many times I swapped the values I used, or swapped which formulas I used-- I even ended up using a CALCULATOR, my answer was still different to the one they had on the answer sheet.

I went to sleep at 1.30AM, DOUBTING my capabilities because of those STUPID QUESTIONS!!!!

Only to find out that everyone had the same answers as me, and that the answer sheet was wrong. ARGHHH.

I kept PRAYING AND PRAYING that the test would be full of questions on TABLETS, INJECTIONS & IntraVenous Therapy (with pump), coz that's what I was good at.

I was a bit 'iffy' on the IntraVenous Therapy (without pump) coz well.. It's just that much harder. ARGH.

The test was only 10 questions, and we had 1hour to do them.
So, it's OKAY I guess-- but if you think about it, I'm only allowed to get max of TWO wrong. Or else I fail. DAMNNNIT.

I don't see the point in making us go through HELL to use these calculations when in the REAL WORLD, every nurse has a CALCULATOR in his/her POCKET.

Because in the REAL WORLD, no one has ENOUGH time during the 8hour shift to work out (using pen/pencil&paper) exactly how much medication needs to be given to the patient.
IMPOSSIBLE! argh.

But in the end, I guess I'm so proud of myself coz I only learnt how to actually do the calculations LAST NIGHT. hahaha at around 9PM. Which is probably why I didn't get to sleep til 1AM. HAAAYZZ..

` Shout out to Ate Maribel ; Mother! Thanks for doing your calculations during our lecture so I could watch and learn! LOL
` Shout out to MY MOM! ; MOMMAH! Thanks for staying up with me til 12AM in the family room while I did my practice tests. =)
` Shout out to BESPREN! ; Fr. Jj! Thanks for Praying for me & asking God to help me out! =P
` Shout out to SISBO! ; Thanks for the words of encouragement && bringing back memories of TCC & Cross Country! lol

` AND TO EVERYONE ELSE! wooohooo <3

RATE IT: 8/10

Anyone remember Kristjan from Katie's party?- the one I kissed? LOL

My dad met him today.

SCENE:
My dad waiting outside Priceline (me&mom inside)

Tita Lyn comes up to him (Chris' mom-- uhmm Chris is Kristjan's friend- the other guy I was hanging around with at Katie's.)

Tita: "How are you? Asan sila Emy & Camille?" (Where are Emy & Camille)

Dad: "Nasa loob eh, may binibili" (inside, buying something)

Tita: "Chris say hello to uncle Rolly, you know Camille yeah?" (he also gets intro-ed to another guy but my dad doesn't remember his name)

Chris: "Camille? YEAH.. where is she?"

Dad: "inside buying something"

... Then they leave.

Dad: "Nakita ko si Lyn ah.." (I saw Lyn)

Mom: "oh.."

Dad: "Kasama nya yung anak nya" (she was with her son)

ME: "Chris...?"

Dad: "Oo, may kasama din kaibigan.." (yeah, and a friend)

ME: "tall?"

Dad: "Yup"

ME: "Skinny? ... Aussie/Italian? ..."

Dad: "Yep"

ME: " ....what's his name?"

Dad: "Kalimutan ko eh" (I forget)

ME: " .... KRISTJAN? "

Dad: "OO! Yun ata.. Yeah parang Kris... something" (yeah! that one, I think... Kris something..)

LOL... Too bad I didn't see him. I would have loved to see how he looked LOL.
I told my mom he had a crush on me at Katie's. HAHAHAH

anyways;

I'm staying home tomorrow!! YESSS>.<
Catching up on my sleep.

Coz my parents have work so they don't have to know I'm skipping. LOL
