Duties & File Fleas

|
It's a great start for me to spend my summer vacation doing hospital duties for six weeks because I get to enjoy every minute of it. Seriously, I think I wanna be an E.R. nurse... or a doctor. :P

It's good because I didn't just gain some new friends, I also get to sponge all the things that they taught me & some old routines that need polishing. I don't know why but I'm really eager to learn, maybe because I'm making it up not only to the ones who are concerned about my studies but to myself too. I also need a little break from my business activities (it's actually doing quite good even if I'm not there & because someone is changing because of money & I really hate that) & from my social life.

I really need to focus on my duty, my family & myself. Albeit the intense heat this summer when I go to Cardinal Santos Medical Center (That's where I first had my hospital duty) because of the fact that my duty is 2-10PM, I still am glad that I'm falling in love with the E.R. atmosphere- that's why I'm always energize when there's someone that needs assistance in some nursing activities. I just hope I get to snatch some few minor cases there.

On the downside, I'm really devastated towards my laptop because it reformatted by itself two days ago when I opened it. Obviously, all the files are gone- all that pictures & songs. I'm lucky enough to save my compositions from my usb... but those photos! Anyways, I'll be getting this thing fixed up & reformatted again before it pulls a crazy thing again on its own & I'm really sure now to buy that thing with a big storage space. Two years ago I saw that my friend has that thingy & I don't get the point why does he have to buy something like that... now I understand. Dang it!

It's not in my nature to get so furious to someone who's already close to me, but I tend to bite when someone pulls a stupid apathetic stunt because I followed his stupid advice. At first I really don't blame him from what happened to me back then, but now, I'm just furious that he doesn't have the guts to defend me from an upline who's getting on my nerves way before he became one. What happened to his promise? It didn't really disappeared... because it didn't really exist at the first place. All he cares now was his money & his insolent attitude. What an upline! & the hell he doesn't know that I'm defending him from some of his downlines who felt that his attitude isn't right anymore... now he's all on his own & I'll be my own upline from now on & will guide my downlines whom I really care about. Argghh! I just hate it when people change so badly for money.

Anyways, still looking on the bright side. A little break is all I needed to pull that rumor plug that the Allan now wasn't really that certain about studying. I'm still putting myself to my fate & sucking some big faith into my lungs. God bless & have a terrific Thursday! :)

DVD Marathon

|
What a way to spend the remaining days of vacation... DVD Marathon at its best!

I'm still not that physically well but I'm feeling much better unlike yesterday. Me & my friends just spent almost two days burning up the DVD player & watching all kinds of films & series. There was Fated to Love You, Desperate Housewives, Wolverine (Shh! That's the one that got leaked on the internet but I'm still looking forward to watching it on theaters), How to Lose Friends & Alienate People, my newest favorite Slumdog Millionaire! Sakal, Sakali, Saklolo & many more.

I also get to rest for many many hours prior to my flu. At least I get to sleep long enough for the preparations to my summer classes that will start at Monday. Already? Yep, that's how college life torture us. :P

I also ate so much that I'm not even sure if I have a flu. Technically, I get too tired to eat when I am sick, but I get hungrier every minute. However, the most wonderful thing from that was the time I spend with my bestfriend Eric & everyone's Beps- Raqui. CHEEZY! :D

Anyways, I came back home just now to finally finish our thesis due on Monday- all I need is to reformat it, print it & bookbind it & I'm done. I'm still crossing my fingers on my NCM exam & I really hope I passed that test. It's really my only shot to make it through everything I sacrificed. God bless & have a nice day guys!

Flu & Falling Stars

|
It's nice to be back after two days of absence here in LJ. Although I'm not feeling well today, at least it's good that I get to finish all the things that I'm worried about like my overdue exams that I took yesterday after my last make up duty in MCMC ER. I'm still crossing my fingers on my NCM exams cause I have to get a grade of 73% (I thought it was 69%) to get a passing grade. Let's just wait & see.

Last, last night when I was spending time with myself outside our house I get to see a falling star. It's not everyday nor every year that you get to see something like that unexpectedly. Then I had an epiphany- good things do come when you least expect it. So from now on I wouldn't want to be expecting, I would just cling myself to hope.

I didn't get a chance to blog because my little brother is using the internet like crazy for two days. At least I get to spend quality time with my bed & pillows at night! I'm planning to get some little exercise today but I'm really not that feeling well. I don't know how I got this flu & I'm hoping it's not from the hospital. Anyways, I guess I'd be getting some breakfast. I'm still nervous about the exams & I don't know what to expect... or hope. God will be the judge.

Chasing Pavements

|
Just took a long, long nap & I think I'm finally curing my sleeping disorder (let's see) & my depression. Ti-hee!

I haven't had the chance to go to my grandmother's (she prefers calling her mommy) birthday celebration because I was planning to go to Quezon City awhile ago because I thought I haven't had any medical exams whatsoever for our hospital duty. Then I remembered I already had that when we were at school. *Bangs head at the table*

So my initial reaction was to go 'bumming' inside the house watching dvds like Bolt, Twilight (again!), C.S.I. Season 9, Brothers & Sisters & Gossip Girl & working out for an hour. I wanna make up to my mommy's birthday sometime this week, after I finished our make up duty, took the special exams & enroll for summer classes. I met up with my friend Yat at two o'clock in the afternoon to get something from her, then I just took a quick stroll around our subdivision's park, & then took a nap.

Still have many things to do & I need to set it straight before things could get even worst. Even if it's the holy week, I'm still going to be pretty busy hauling every past mistakes that I've done. Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements? I chose the latter since it's gonna be so worth it in the end. I forgot... I'm already a college senior! Hoorah! :)

Sleep

|
I called it a day during the night, & just woke up feeling a little bit refreshed, but overjoyed when I had slept at night time.

Okay, let me rephrase that  a little... you all know that I have issues about sleeping, right? For months I've been an insomniac since I started my business & of course, my hospital duties. I was a vampire. That's right, I said it. ;)

However, I'm really serious about trying to change my sedentary lifestyle. Let's face it! It's not healthy for me anymore being someone who doesn't plan his diet, exercise or sleep at night. So, after dinner, I made a choice- I will try sleeping tonight.

I guess my lack of sleep also triggered my mood in some way; being restless doesn't bring many good traits, I just had a recent depression drama remember? Plus, I really have to be aware that sleep affects my overall performance, obviously my health & safety. Yeah, I'm overweight because of sleep deprivation.

Anyways, I'm starting to get some physical activity to & tone down that crazy eating disorder (lol). Last night, I ordered two pieces of McDonald's chicken, large fries & two coke floats. Dang it! Spare me the insults guys... :P

Still got a full day ahead! God bless everyone & have a Merry Monday. Happy happy birthday to my grandmother Gloria Leyva whom I love so much.

Make Up Duties

|
Call me crazy, but I'm seriously having fun with make up duties...

Well, not really; it sucks when you have to wake up early in the morning to prepare for your duty (try going to bed at 12AM & waking up at quarter to 4AM), you have to leave home & all your daily activities & spend the day being bummed at a lying-in center.

Albeit those negativities, it actually is fun spending time with good old friends who paid enough money just to hang out with each other... with a clinical instructor on the guard.

We had our make up duty (yeah, supposed to be on vacation mode) in Taguig lying-in center from six o'clock in the morning up to 8 o'clock in the evening. We haven't had the chance to get some DR cases there so we just updated ourselves to the current happenings in our lives... like my idol David Archuleta, who's coming in the Philippines at May 16 together with David Cook of course! VIP tickets, anyone? :D

Anyways, after a long, long day of chatting, eating & lying around (that's why they call it a lying-in center! They took the name literally), me & my make up duty buds decided to call it a day & went home. So technically, my day was filled with... nothing. Peace!

Getting Back in Shape

|
It's 4:40PM & would you believe that I haven't had any sleep since nine o'clock yesterday night? I do too- it's already a part of my sedentary lifestyle to have a weird opposite sleeping schedule so I can't blame myself. It's never too late to change it back, but it's gonna take me awhile.

That's my point- I really have to get back in shape, not just physically, but mentally, emotionally & spiritually. I mean, I used to be so fit when I was really hooked into sports like basketball, volleyball, soccer & of course, swimming. I never had any problems in my studies unlike today, I never get depressed nor get so tired a lo, & yeah, I always go to church on Saturday & Sunday.

Now it seems all of it never existed. I got stuck in this semi-fat growing body; eating everything I see without checking the Nutrition facts; I'm behind my studies & I'm always trying to make some excuses on having advance studies on my future subjects, & do I have to tell about my obvious depression & the fact that I don't go to church anymore?
 
I used to have a good relationship with my body, school, myself & God. It seems all that was taken away because of everything that is happening now, especially those distractions. I couldn't take it any longer.
  
I promise myself that everything is going to get better again, & I'm a hell lot determined to get back in shape again. Now, I'd be having a little nap (wish I could wake up early) & will prepare for school after I wake up. Wish me luck for my special exams & my grades- wish I could take it & pull it off. God bless & take care everyone. Have a serene Saturday. Happy 21st birthday to my best buds John Anthony "Juanton" Robes & Carlo Luigi "Weegy" Robes. :)

April Fool's Post

|
You might understand this... or not. The point of this post is that you have to derive my thoughts to its opposite. For example, if I say I'm in love... then I'm really pointing out that I'm not soul-searching for the moment. Got it?

Anyways, it's been a long long time since I posted something here in LJ. My mind is so focused lately to everything I forgot how much time I'm not wasting from doing some busy summer work stuffs. I've clearly been in a hassle always, & I think it's still healthy- both physically & mentally.

I've been myself a lot lately & I think I wouldn't hire a shrink for me to go through what I'm feeling now. I hadn't had any rollercoaster emotions-which explains why I always sleep tonight. My studies are also at its greatest shape. I don't need any help whatsoever. :)

I never had any trouble sleeping. It's always peaceful every night. Summer's doing a great job for me & the business is moving on a fast pace.

Still hopeful! April Fool's Day! :)

-You maybe wondering now if I need some professional help... do I?

Hello April!

|
I've barely passed through every tribulation that headed my way, & although I've been feigning my feelings for almost a week now, I know I still have that random optimism to stand up again from my fall.

This year's March have proven a lot when I pronounced that it will all be centered to music & mayhems... it actually did. I've composed a bunch of positive songs this month & reviving... or should I say finishing what those ancient compositions I've left before. Let's just say in the process of faking it, there was a positive atmosphere that gave me hope to write something about. Another was mayhems! It actually was the most dangerous month of my year- it's like everything is set to fail & I was in the brink of my faith to alternate it. Somehow I managed to pass through all that, although I'm still in the process of getting my life back to normal again.

I was pretty upset the past few weeks because I actually blamed a lot of people for the things I've messed up. I've always thought that I should probably start thinking for myself once in awhile & not for anyone, but tell you what, I've always been thinking for myself & not for anyone anymore. It's kinda sad that I was blaming other people for not helping me out in my situation but it turns out I should be the one who's responsible for my life, for my own actions & not them. I really feel guilty about it & I really intend to make up for everything this summer. Especially to my studies- it's time for me to straighten things up again & try & changed my life back to normal.

I've been drinking & lying lately, & I just can't take it anymore. I've always denied the fact that somehow, I have changed, & gave out an "I've just added some few personalities" excuses. However, if you think about it, I really did change. Well, I can say that change is the only constant thing in the world, but I still feel awful from the way I turned out.

So before I set myself into the old Allan again (& hopefully, I will be accomplished), I'd better go take a break & hibernate before summer classes start. 'Till then guys... have a great summer! :)

Signing off, iLAN

132nd Song- Below the Line

|
With the song If that Man Was Me, this composition of mine is also one of the most ancient song I haven't finished for a long, long time. I remembered this song because of the movie my old friends invented when we were in elementary school- Nature Ninjas which I turned to Atlicost when I stepped into highschool. I tried writing a story but my artistic thoughts was just a wannabe in my character.  Anyways, here's Below the Line.

Below the Line
Allan Aldrinne Leyva


You made it
Finished the line
Though it’s not the same cause you just break it
Through time & time
  
You did it
You crossed the path
But it’s not the way you instigated
Not the way you moved tonight
  
(Chorus)
I who stopped the time
I who hauled my life
Below the line
Yes I’m below the line
Who made you fine
Who gave you life
Below the line
Yes I’m below the line

You made it
Won over my pack
Tangled webs you’ve feigned the past
We did not surpass
  
I’ll bring it
My deepest why
To compose a larger strength to hold
Your plans & your shows
(Repeat Chorus)
  
The things you must do for you to undo
Is beg for your evils do’s
Now you can choose
The life that you want
The life that you need
To grasp air into the fire
Surpass yourself below the line
(Instrumental)
(Repeat Chorus 3x)
