Aquino</a> because death might bring bad luck to this blog. But today, I broke my promise. I personally think that something about Tita Cory is really worth the space here and my time.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">I was one of those who lined up last Sunday along Ortigas Avenue to pay my last respect along with many others in La Salle Greenhills. My HS buddies, <a href="http://auvillena.multiply.com/">Au</a> and <a href="http://emmanvillas.multiply.com/">Emman</a> joined me. It took us more that 3 hours and we did not mind. <span style="font-style: italic;">Wala yung hirap at inip namin sa pila kumpara sa mga naging sakripisyo ni</span> Mrs. Aquino. </span> <span style="font-family:verdana;"><br /><br />Today, I went out and waited for hours to witness the funeral march of Cory Aquino. <a href="http://www.facebook.com/kikaymachine">Kaye</a>, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/people/Agie-Untalan/590742963#/profile.php?id=590742963">Agie</a> and I were reluctant to get out because it was raining, but I told myself, <span style="font-style: italic;">magpakita lang kahit sandali ang araw, pupunta ako sa</span> Osmena Highway. And sometime in the morning, s<span style="font-style: italic;">umilip ang araw</span>. After witnessing the funeral mass, we hurriedly prepared ourselves and in 15 mins, we were in Zobel Roxas cor. South Super Highway. There were lots of people and as we patiently waited,<span style="font-style: italic;"> mas dumadami ang mga tao.</span> It rained hard but we stood there along with many others. And when convoy of Tita Cory finally passed, people clapped their hands and cheered. Some chanted <span style="font-style: italic;">CORY AQUINO BAYANING TOTOO</span>, others tearfully sang <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayan_Ko"><span style="font-style: italic;">Bayan Ko</span></a>. I saw my sister Kaye wiping her tears.<br /></span></div><div> </div><p style="font-family: verdana; text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Emerson_Fosdick">Harry Emerson Fosdick</a>, an American clergyman once said that<span style="font-style: italic;"> "Democracy is based upon the conviction that there are extraordinary possibilities</span><span style="font-style: italic;"> in ordinary people." </span> President Corazon C. Aquino was one great testament to this. She was an ordinary woman, a plain housewife and mother, with an extraordinary faith, fortitude and courage who was able to steer democracy towards its continuous emergence as a permanent way of life in this country.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family:verdana;">I am proud I was there.

My life was grand there. It was a good-paying job, it wasn't as strenous as any other job, I got the travel for free etc etc. but still I quit. </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Marami na akong mga taong nakausap at nagtanong kung bakit ako umalis dun. Mas marami ang hindi nakaintindi pero kahit papano meron din naman nakaunawa.</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> I guess, </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >patunay lang yun dun sa</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> Newton's 3rd Law that in every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">The decision to quit was never easy. It took me more than 6 months and a lot of considerations were taken. But that decision was not only the toughest but also one decision that I am really proud of. My decision to quit came based on my principles, my ideals, my moral values, my premonitions; based on the lessons that I learned and my knowledge up to that point in life. I had to it. For myself and for the ones I loved. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Kamusta na nga ba ako</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> after 1 year? Am I happier? Well, to be honest I am happy but I know I could be happier. Happy</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" > kase</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> I am living my life the way I want. I have my freedom, I have my family with me </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >yun nga lang wala akong sahod</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">. For 1 year, </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >wala akong</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> work k</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >aya wala akong sahod</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">. I had a decent amount of savings </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >naman</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> before I left my work and I'm proud to say that up until now, I still have "some" amount that I can spend for few more months or probably a year </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >kung mas magiging matipid ako</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">. That's one of the things that I learned when I worked abroad - to value the amount of money. </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Kase nga</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">, hard-earned </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >talaga yun</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">. Sweat, and tears </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >yun kaya na-appreciate ko talaga yung </span><span style="font-family:verdana;">value </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >ng pera</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">. But the best thing after quitting my job, it's the peace mind that I have now. I remember on my very first night in Manila, it was the best night and best sleep I had since May 2007. It's priceless! The peace of mind, priceless </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >talaga at hinding-hindi ko ipagpapalit!</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Was it worth it? Yes, </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >kase</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> at peace</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" > ako</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >at tulad nga nang sabi ko</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">, priceless </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >yun.</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> I have the freedom. I cook and eat pork anytime I want. I can spend some quality time with my family, friends and my neurons are regenerating again. Learning is very important to me. And the continuous learning was never a part of my previous job. I've been always striving to be the best physical therapist that I can be and I knew that learning (professionally) will never be a part of my job inside the palace. I had to quit. I want to work in a healthcare facility and not for some people who thinks that everything, I say everything, has a price. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Several times, I was interviewed by employers from the Middle East, US, here in Manila, and they all had a common question: </span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >Why did I quit? </span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> It's plain and simple, </span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >"I learned a lot about life's lessons but I know I had to quit."</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> The job was not for me, I belong in a health care facility. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Surely I miss a couple of things - a centralized AC, my credit card, my paycheck, travels abroad, but those things are nothing compared to the peace of mind and the freedom that I have now. I may not have the money but I have my family. I may not have the chance to travel abroad but I have my friends. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Looking back, I'm still thankful for that once in a lifetime opportunity. I've been to places, spoke few new phrases other than English and Filipino, learned from different cultures, met a lot of people, gained some new friends, understood what was life out there and loved my family and myself more than ever. </span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >So, was there life after the palace? Absolutely.</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Pera at sahod lang ang nawala sa akin. Kaya ko pang kitaan yun</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> elsewhere. I still have my dreams, and nothing will stop me from achieving those dreams.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Right now, I'm back in Rizal Medical Center and hopefully by the 3rd quarter of the year, I'm heading to the US to fulfill my great American dream.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Last question that needs to be answered: Should they hire me back in the palace? </span><span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:verdana;" >My answer: Thanks but NO thanks</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">.</span><br /></div>rehabmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06559645862793135631noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634403890451059192.post-469842603176007762009-07-06T18:58:00.002+08:002009-07-06T22:40:02.930+08:00RF, the Greatest!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTnsm_CkV9n4m7uO4xkd5bc_sCsxWJzz9Mf7vucaImd26HINEX3Z0CvzL-FMEUIpSXX_ipGb8c-YrYHtHq2GSy8wClBFT1Qe_Ra6UqvV8qqJ7Jn3P4YyAA2Mx48dCUwiWOM7bFR6xbI-jh/s1600-h/b_013_federer_126_epa_g_penny.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

Hmm, nobody from my batch passed the exam. We were 40+ when took the test (although we were nearly 70 from my batch. some of my batchmates took the exams earlier kase) but there were some 15-20 more reviewees (sit-in, as we call them) from previous batches who took it. The 60 item-exam was easy if I studied harder and earlier. </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Tamad talaga kc ako</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">.</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" > Dagdag pa yung time</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> pressure </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >at yung</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> worries</span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" > na meron ako</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">. I told myself not to be impulsive but there I was, committing the same old mistakes. Tsk tsk tsk.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Before my exam date, I told my sister Kaye: </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >"baka ma-zero ako sa exam!"</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> I was worried, I was stressed and wasn't able to</span><span style="font-family:verdana;"> finish reading my lecture notes. </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >Kung baga, naging </span><span style="font-family:verdana;">selective </span><span style="font-style: italic;font-family:verdana;" >na lang ako</span><span style="font-family:verdana;">.

Katamaran nga naman.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">My goal was to get at least 30 correct answers out of the 60 5-10 liner questions. I got more than half. But what is more important was that I got one very important life's lesson, that <span style="font-weight: bold;">success is not all about luck. Success is made up of equal amounts of luck, hardwork and faith.</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">Lahat ng nakapasa ng</span> NPTE n<span style="font-style: italic;">aghirap at lahat ng successful naghirap din</span>.

And the painful truth is that, <span style="font-weight: bold;">I AM NOT YET READY TO TAKE THE US STATES BOARDS EXAM.</span><br /><br />Last January, I devoted my Friday nights reading Susan O'Sullivan's Physical Rehabilitation Assessment and Treatment. I found myself struggling to finish a chapter. But luckily(?), I'm already done with 4 chapters and have to finish another 3 must-read chapters.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Kinakabahan talaga ako. Mukhang wala akong maisasagot. </span> I haven't finished re-writing my lecture notes. Never p<span style="font-style: italic;">a ako nag-buklat ng reviewers ko. Apat na</span> chapters <span style="font-style: italic;">pa lang ang tapos ko basahin at nakakalimutan ko mga ibang na-aral at nabasa ko</span>.<br /><br />Our assessment exam (review school re-enforcement examination) is scheduled on the 2nd of April. I do not know what will happen after that day. From a while, I am signing off <span style="font-style: italic;">para magbuhos ng oras, lakas at dasal sa</span> exam that will make or break me.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Sa mga kaibigan ko, pasensya na kung di muna ako makasama sa ating lakaran at inuman o makapag-text man lang. Kelangan ko na talaga mag-aral. Konting pang-unawa lang.</span> <span style="font-style: italic;">Pagdasal nyo na lang muna ako!</span><br /></div>rehabmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06559645862793135631noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634403890451059192.post-2320544551657468522009-03-11T00:05:00.006+08:002009-03-11T02:02:50.625+08:00March 11<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz4BgQvi4VfKQl2Hn-Vl5xzJCdr3UVU8SX9t-e4XYeZh40REm0tOG_cEMKjQNoc7jgS69tLtUtByh09zTNUqunJaJi2mmjX64gNElwsL0Pk7Gykzl6Vq__Iz9MQ3fe_jpjoLpLKhKAVjMu/s1600-h/SDC12982.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz4BgQvi4VfKQl2Hn-Vl5xzJCdr3UVU8SX9t-e4XYeZh40REm0tOG_cEMKjQNoc7jgS69tLtUtByh09zTNUqunJaJi2mmjX64gNElwsL0Pk7Gykzl6Vq__Iz9MQ3fe_jpjoLpLKhKAVjMu/s320/SDC12982.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5311601052449623202" border="0" /></a><div style="text-align: justify;font-family:verdana;"><span style="font-family:verdana;">Thirty years ago, my Tatay and Nanay got married.

The match was starting to heat up when I left the house during the first set with Federer leading 2-3. Hours later, while enjoying the dinner with my friends, I received a message from my sister Kaye, <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">"Sorry, panalo kame"</span>. My 3 siblings are for Nadal. I didn't reply. I felt bad. Really bad.<br /><br />Watching Roger sob via the YouTube is killing me too. I know it was rough for him . But I still believe in Roger, just like his millions and millions of fans around the globe. Ending up the <span style="font-weight: bold;">2009 Australian Cup 1st runner</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">up</span> doesn't change a thing. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Roger still the best tennis champ for meand still the number one on my list.</span><br /><br /><a style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" href="http://www.australianopen.com/en_AU/news/articles/2009-02-01/200902011233413443968.html">Rafa said to him, Roger is still a great champion and he is one of the best in history and he will beat Pete Sampras' 14 titles for sure. I couldn't help but agree.</a><span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"> </span>All the best to you Roger for the rest of the season.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Anyway Congrats Rafa! You played really, really great and you truly deserve it. Hats off to you.</span></span><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:100%;"><span style="font-size:85%;">----<br />To view the pictures of my Sunday night out, visit <a href="http://rehabman06.multiply.com/photos/album/24/The_Birth_of_the_Sunday_Group"><span style="font-weight: bold;">this</span></a>..</span><br /></span></div>rehabmanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06559645862793135631noreply@blogger.com4
