Would you rather...

Would you rather have someone love you much more than you love them or love someone much more than they love you back?

Confessions of a medical student #2

Kapag nasa bakasyon kayo ng higit sa isang linggo...aminin niyo, hinahanap niyo rin ang pagiging busy at pagiging pala-aral. (ang hindi niyo lang hinahanap ay ang pagising ng sobrang aga).

Pero sa pag-iisip niyo kung ano ang magagawa niyo para hindi naman kalawangin ang mga utak niyo habang bakasyon, tinatamad na rin kayo sa dulo at matutulog na lang, kakain at manonood ng telebisyon. 

Aminin. 

Tara, tulog na lang nga tayo. Sweater weather na. 

Confessions of a medical student #1:

Okay pa lang substitute sa place mat ang mga past evals and samplexes na natapos na pag tinatamad ka nang kumain sa dining table. Eh bakit ba? Inabutan ka na ng gutom sa study table mo eh.

10 Things That You Think About When You Think You're In Love

1) People blab about how people never really get contented in life. You really can't have it all. But sometimes, there comes a point in your life that one thing is already enough to make you say that "I already have it all".

2) It doesn't matter how tired and frustrated you are after a long day. But when that person comes up to you and insists to take you home and try to cheer you up, it suddenly feels as if the weight of the world got lifted from your shoulders and a giant smile creeps up your face. (Not a creepy smile)

Not this kind of smile: 

3) Its not cliche. There are really butterflies in your stomach.

4) Every (happy) love song makes sense. And you seem to be relating very well to Katy Perry’s Teenage Dream.

See: 

5) When someone creeps up to you and try to take you by surprise, almost 99% of the time you think (and hope) it's that special someone.

6) No matter how different your group of friends are, both of you don't seem to mind to blend in each other’s cliques just as long as you're both there, together.

7) You feel 10 lbs. lighter - or you wish you feel 10 lbs. lighter. Or you don't. Because he/she just likes the way you are.

8) Hopeless romantics have a future after all.

9) PDA by John Legend seems to be playing in your head.

Go, try it. Swoon: 

10) You're nodding your head right now and smiling while reading this. You can SO relate if you think you are indeed crazy head over heels in love.

Anything Can Happen

Inspired by Ellie Goulding's eeriely addictive electronic song of the same name, my summer can be characterized as such. Or I'd like to think of it that way. Some excitement is due my way after the last exhausting few weeks of med school, and after the last few uneventful days (which I resigned myself to house arrest due to inexplicable heat outside lol) as well.

And to that anything which can happen anytime soon - i say, bring it on, let my remaining few weeks of summer bliss be exciting. I shall say yes to everything. (Please count out any self-destructing activities hahaha or anything absurdly stupid. I can do somewhat stupid hahaha)

Bring it on!

Oh hey, it's Summer!

Finally caught a break! 

What a rollercoaster 1st year in med school. March was literally hell on earth. A month just taking exams exams and more exams. Oh but hey, I survived. One year down, three more to go, plus internship, Boards, Residency and the rest of my life.

Easily said, or type-written, than done, I know.

But for now, I'm going to chill out (ironic, it's freaking hot outside), relax, and sleep all day (well, maybe just half a day). Watch TV and movies like there's no tomorrow. Read novels! God, I missed reading non-academic things. Listen to music without reading anything academic with it! Yay! One Republic's new album just came out, and bam, listening to it! Digging Imagine Dragons too.

:D Excited for being busy by planning summer get-aways with my HS, Bio and Med friends.

We shall see. The days are long and the nights, equally long HAHA. (I think the days are longer, since it's summer.)

For now....

I'M FREEEEEE! (From the academic responsibilities I mean, but nonetheless, I'm still a law-abiding citizen of this country and this world, so please don't look me up at precincts, expecting me to have gone wild without respect for rules HAHAHA) =))

A Big Cheerio,

Issa

Is the glass half-empty?

Dear friend,

Suddenly all these feelings rush back in with just a song emanating from the background.

I feel like I've achieved some things
I should be thankful for in my life so far, minor things really, like getting my degree and surviving med school so far.

BUT I feel empty. And worthless, not good enough. Why? I don't understand this heart or brain of mine. I'm such a mess.

Help.
