Cure for Cancer

I’ve had previous posts about Mesothelioma in my blog before, but i’m too lazy to search for the links again. Until now, I’m not completely aware of its capabilities and the possibility of it being the next cure for cancer. 

Years of research and the continuous search for effective treatment of this terminal disease is still far from coming to an end.

I do hope that they do find the cure soon because people close to our hearts continue to fight for their lives from the hands of cancer.

Sleeping Aid

8 hours of sleep is a luxury that I can’t afford until the end of semester. Exams, papers and lab reports are all piling up. Lack of sleep is what’s causing these un-pretty dark circles under my eyes and the haggard look that I’ve been sporting these past few days. My face is sallow, but I somehow managed to gain weight and acquire all these fats in unwanted places.

It sucks to be called fat and its depressing when people tell you, ‘Abah Bern! Ang taba mo ngayon oh. Pumuputok mga damit mo.’

Gahd. Perfect kasi nila eh noh.

Anyway.  Whenever I try to sleep early, it usually takes me a few hours before I fall asleep. I think it’s because my body clock’s so disoriented, it cannot recognize that I am actually trying to get some rest.

I think insomnia runs in the family. My younger brother is having a hard time to get some sleep, and my father gets anxiety attacks every now and then, and he can’t get some sleep either.  Our family doctor recommended a natural sleep aid to help my dad and my brother doze off easier.

So anyhoo. I’m off to sleep now.  I have a lot of catching up to do.

Hair loss

Im too young to think of looking for vitamins for hair loss.

I lose a few strands of hair every now and then, but i don’t think it poses a serious threat to my health. 

The hair is a woman’s crowning glory, so keeping it shiny and health is a MUST. We try every hair products, shampoos and conditioners available in the market. Reular visits to the salon is something that we shouldn’t miss.

Chubibo

 Allen’s scared of carnival rides because it makes him dizzy and nauseous. 

But since i am his girlfriend and i have the power to make ‘bola’ and make ‘uto’, I convinced him to ride the ferris wheel with me. Even though he was really against my idea, he had no choice but to comply with my whims.

He almost threw up in the middle of the ride. I laughed hard and took videos of him while he was cussing and begging the manongs to slow down. 

LESSON LEARNED: Don’t force allen to ride carnival rides after eating.

And i noticed how haggard and stressed i look in this picture — actually these past few days aren’t one of the best at all. I think i need multivitamin supplements to replenish lost vitamins due to stress and lack of sleep. 

Debut Madness

I can’t remember the last time I attended a debut.

I’ve had lots of invitations, but I had to decline most of them because:

1.       I’m too lazy to dress up and its sometimes hard to comply with the theme

2.       I usually don’t have the time to buy a gift

3.       I hate celebrations

4.       I didn’t celebrate my debut myself

I am usually asked to be one of the celebrant’s 18 candles or 18 treasures. I have to think of a gift that suits her most, think of an explanation, and muster enough courage to stand and speak in front of people (some I don’t even know).

Last Saturday, a younger sister invited me to be one of her 18 treasures for her debut. I barely know her, but I was present all throughout her initiation process, so I guess that makes me qualified for the uhm… position.

I had trouble in looking for the right dress (not too shabby and not to daring either), shoes and make-up. I didn’t have enough time to really think of a suitable gift for her, but in less than 10minutes, I was able to find her a gift in Trinoma.

YESTHURSDAY!

      Bacchus and Probability and Statistics book are the perfect combination… EVAH!

I haven’t posted any entries for the past week due to my ‘hectic’ schedule and examinations that kept me busy the whole week. I haven’t had much sleep due to stress and though i wanted so baaaad to rest, there was sooooo much to do… 

So let me update you guys with everything that happened:

1. Monday 

 I woke up early for the Annual Deltan Cup. I had an exam at 4 and a class at one, but i had to ditch class because of the sorority’s activity. I was one of those who were heading the event, and i realized how unprepared we were. It’s a good thing we were taught to make plan a’s - z’s during the initiations for situations in need of back-up plans. 

The exam in ES13 was easy (except for the combined loadings part) and i am pretty sure that i would pass that exam. 

2. Tuesday

It was teh sorority’s grand pakain in celebration of the Deltan Week. I had to stay up late (until 4am!!!!) to cook sago and gulaman — which was an EPIC FAIL btw. Teh gulaman was too hard and inedible (too little water and i overcooked it) and the sago was undercooked. Whoever suggested serving sago and gulaman deserves to die. I SWEAR. I stayed up late for nothing.

Flying Cockroaches

I NEED TO CLEAN UP MY ROOM, ASAP!!!!

I hate cockroaches, especially those who know how to scare the hell out of me — by flying all over the room. The way they walk sends shiver to my spine and seeing them walk on walls makes me run for cover! Seriously… They are one hell of a species that I’d like to see on the extinct species list.

I SWEAR! I’ll clean up tomorrow and bleach the floors.

*so before going to bed, im thinking of Ferrari parts and smuggled cars. I can’t wait to graduate and get rich so i could have a sports car of my own soon.

Health is wealth

Office furniture are designed in such a way that it would be conducive for working, and for employees not to feel too comfortable. Thanks to Industrial Engineers and their mastery in ergonomics, health-friendly chairs and furnishings are designed and are already out in the market. Say goodbye to carpal tunnel syndrome, backaches, headaches and other aching body parts. These people would earn big without jeopardizing their health. As the saying goes, health is wealth.

Insecurities and Envy

I admit it: I sometimes badmouth other people just to feel good about myself.

I have a lot of insecurities, and satisfaction is sometimes not in my vocabulary. I sometimes don’t like people who look better than me, smarter than me and I sometimes loathe girls prettier than me. So one of my remedies for the constant nagging of envy is to convince myself that I am better than them and they are way below my level.

And i do believe other people think negatively of me, and try to ruin my reputation by sayong bad things about me.. But what the heck! i Don’t care!

It is childish, immature and just plain mean. I am not perfect — nobody is. And admit it, YOU have once or twice (or even sometimes more than that) badmouthed other people to cover up your insecurities and envy, right?

*would online life insurance be of any help?
