Medical exam!

It’s been a while! Now what am I up to now..

Well, I’m currently sitting right now beside the photo booth at Slec waiting for my name to be called. St lukes needs it as a part of my US visa application.. Yup! Its finally here. I have my interview date scheduled on the 28th of July and its the 8th today.

Man, the last post I did was around 2 years ago! Oof the guy was supposed to call me but when away.

Time check: 7:45. They just took my height, weight and they also did my blood extraction and urinalysis. Now I’m waiting for my name to be called for the physical exam. I wonder if my urinalysis would be okay.

So yeah going back, 2019 eh? I remember in 2019 March 15, I just started working in EXL as a utilisation review nurse under Anthem. Time flies when you’re having fun. In that 2 years I’ve learned a loooot. For about a year we were at the office then suddenly just when I was planning to resign, covid came. That month was actually fun, we were at the morning shifts, no one was at the office at that time except our team. We’d eat out almost everyday then go home just when the chaos of the night shift started. Sheena, green, charmaine, nicolei, Ronald, Luis, Gary, Mai, Iris and Mark hmm I wonder who else.. We weren’t that few when we started, I remember Edward, ice, juvy, faye, jen, Mon, eloise and a few more. Dang, I’m starting to forget them. Though as of this writing, I still remember their faces..

Covid, yeah it came and its still here. Im so lucky coz I got the vaccine and I honestly wanted it to be Sinovac but you know, we’re in a pandemic. And again I’m already lucky since I’m working from home and I was part of the early ones who got vaccinated yet today more than half of Filipinos doesn’t have the 1st shot. My uncle has covid right now.. Its going on for about 3 weeks I guess? I really hope he doesn’t need to go to the hospital and it’s really sad because I don’t want to be physically there and see him coz I’m still living with my parents and Both of them are senior citizens.

Time check: 9:22am. Spent about 45 mind waiting/vaping beside the parking lot coz I need to waste time up until 12:30pm. I would have to go back, get my results and take the immunization shots. Oh and I need to go back to my car and get my papers again. If only I knew nearby motels so I could wait there and vape in peace lol imma wait here at KFC for about 30 min i guess before I head out.

Time check: 10:58am ate at KFC near MDH, bought a zinger but I really got full coz of the large coke. Did you know fast food chains earn more money when they sell soft drinks? I remember Gerard telling me that it costs less than 10 pesos to make one drink. Oh and I found a nearby lawson store. Finally bought an iced coffee! Makes me remember the times when we were buying at Lawsons North Gate. Time flieeeees

Time check: 12:52pm mf I just took 4 vaccines, 2 per arm and it kinda hurts. Doesn’t hurt as much as the covid vaccines though. I just need to wait for about 30mins then I could go home.

Time check: 2:44pm alright finally got home! What a day. Shit thinking about this day already makes me miss my family.. Dang. I’m gonna boot up my thin client and time to complete cases now I guess.

Til next time!

Current PD!

This is it! My priority date for my US application is already current! But I still didn’t submit my visa screen to start the process. Why? Because I need the sign in bonus! I don’t want to resign (since I need to go back to the medical field) and I need to save money!!

2012 movie

Got a chance to watch 2012 again and I still enjoyed it! But the ending part got me thinking, the captain said that cape of good hope (and south africa) was never really flooded when all of this was happening, so does that mean people still live there?

If so, remember that these are americans who want to make a new government. Would the locals agree? If anyone is still alive though..

Facebook is scary.. plus the internet too.

I was casually scrolling through facebook and noticed that one of my colleagues back in 2013-ish? Had her profile pic deleted. It has the generic female facebook icon which made me curious. So, i decided to check her account and found out that her last post was about 4 mos ago. She posted something about her relative passing away. Aaaand, again out of curiosity (which i shouldn’t have done) decided to search her name through google. So there were a couple of webpages about her, with her address, cause of death and location where she would be buried. I even found out who her boyfriend was. All in a span of 5 mins.

All i’m saying is.. there’s really nothing being private once you upload all your info to the internet.. We all need to be careful out there. Rest in peace to her too..

NCLEX

Finally decided to update this blog as this post specifically, is about 2 weeks due!

Well Im on my 13th day with Rachell Allen and they are amazing! They focus more on self empowering than in depth content for the NCLEX, but I think this is what I need to finally pass this exam!

We’ve been listening to David Mcgraw since day 1 and it focuses our whole day to study and make us feel happy while doing it. I feel really good listening to that and I plan on listening to other “I am” videos even my review is done.

9 mins til our day starts.

This is going to be amazing!! Positive vibes people!

So.. Yeah I failed

Failed the board exam that I took recently and currently picking up where I left off.

Still trying to focus and start all over again (well not all over again as I can still remember some of what I studied before) I just need to create a good study plan again and try to balance work, studies and most importantly “life”

I think that’s the reason why I failed. I was too focused on passing the exams to the point that I shunned everyone around me so when the examination date came, I got too stressed and anxious that I just wanted to end the test asap.. I knew I did what I can.. but anything too much can make or break a person. Exhibit A.

Gonna take things slowly this time, go out on weekends, study and sleep at the right time and resign so I can enroll in a review center..

Just take it easy mark, you got this!

Sj400

“No File” error.

Saw a couple of posts online abt this error and most of them said to buy an original SDCARD. But this card is legit though its about 4 years since I bought it..

Trying to reformat it now, fat32 and 64kb allocation size. If it still won’t work.. I guess i need to buy a new one?

Plus, I should be studying by now..

NClex

6 more days til I take the NCLEX at Trident Towers and I feel extremely nervous.. Never felt this way since the month (yes 1 whole month) I’ve waited for the local boards back in 2010!

I really hope I pass this test because I feel like this is a “make it or break it” examination. My future fkin depends on it!

YEAH, MY.

I honestly don’t know if she even wants to stay with me.. Just go with the flow I guess..

I really do hope i pass this exam. Seriously.

Sony Xperia Service Center Alabang

Ha! Finally got my tablet to work for less than 15k!

Went to the sony service center in madrigal, and they told me to pay 200 for the 1 month long diagnostic process only to find out that I would have to pay 13k for the motherboard and 2k for the battery..

This is a 2014 device and wouldn’t even pay if its above 3k. (Im a cheap bast*rd lol) but luckily I bought a spare android phone and after months of using it, I noticed that it’s also showing the same problem my tablet had. Although, on that spare phone I have an external battery charger to test if the battery was the main cause..

So I decided to risk it and buy a replacement battery from an online store (www.rounded.com). It just got here today and less than 5mins I got my tablet working again! I thought I had to buy the blue wire inside the tablet because i literally broke it in half.. The wifi is working so maybe the cellular option wont work?

Nonetheless, I got it to work! Im thinking of selling my replacement phone.. Let’s see, since my GF’s iphone is acting up already..

Anyway, back to reviewing for the NCLEX!! Wish me luck!
