Good Luck!!!

homs, once posted entourage, adhd and a shirt...
(visit his site if you want to know more)

we were similar on one particular thing on that post...
not entourage, hell not adhd, so yes, the shirt...

he desperately wanted a shirt he saw from a show but since the possibility of having it is far from reality, he made it possible by taking it to the printing shop.

maybe he was not that desperate, but i was...

like him, i also saw a certain shirt from a show not pinoy, so the odds of seeing it here is possibly impossible...
so like him, i went to a printing shop...

and here i am...

wearing the shirt i admire so much since i saw it last year from a site of a movie...
wondering what movie???
some might still recognize it...
but some might not...

so here are few reminders...
a movie that i was that into... and

does not show that much but i know this will stimulate your memories of this blockbuster hit...

yes, the movie was he's just not that into you and transformers 2: ROTF...
i even saw a shirt of similar design that simple design that is, wore by dakota fanning in the movie, PUSH, only that hers was not in green and white...

i don't know why i like the shirt so much... not only that i saw it in these movies...
but maybe because, i like shirts that do something other than clothe us...
and the fact that people will look at it will only serve as a little extra... or not...

maybe that's why i like team manila and joey de leon's shirts...
they are not just t-shirts...
if you want to wear something might as well make a statement...
how hard can that be...

p.s.
want to thank the following:
joshua for the green shirt,
collin and mee for printing the green shirt,
and my nephew seth for capturing me wearing the green shirt...

(move over so you think you can dance for a moment)

there is this one show i am addicted right now... since it began last month... it became a tuesday habit to me...

a half an hour dark comedy about the title, nurse jackie, a flawed emergency room nurse in a NY hospital, who struggles to balance her life in and out of the hospital. a very unconventional story which revolve on her take on giving justice around the health care system with her fellow nurses, doctors, patients, as well as her family...

what i love about the show is the fact that it focuses on nurses (about time for us to have the limelight other professions got for a long time)... grey's anatomy, law and order, nypd blue to mention a few...
and strange as it my sound, in every episode, there's atleast a scene or two which for some reasons made me feel nostalgic and a little de javu... specifically with the student nurse zoey...

heres a dialogue between nurse jackie and the exuberant student nurse zoey, on the second episode...
zoey: i'm not sure that i can do this, i mean, you and momo you all so good at what you do, and doctors, OH MY GOD! there healers, and this place is so amazing, i got into nursing because i wanna help people and i'm afraid i'm just slowing you down.

nurse jackie:this job is waiting through a shitstorm of people who come into this place in the very worst day of their lives, just so you know doctors are here to diagnose not heal, we heal, all saints is in the business of flipping beds, that's it, end of story, the fact that you have even the slightest inclination to help people puts you miles ahead of one hundred percent of the population, so stop crying, ok buck up, if you need to cry go do it in the ladies room, is that clear?

i may not like nursing that much,
but at some point in my life i live and breathe it...
so this is not surprising...
maybe because of this show, i will find my way back to liking it...
who knows... maybe, maybe not...

for the moment....
this is pure entertainment...

(nung umatend ako last year ng convention ng philippine nurses association, nabanggit dun na magkakaroon din ng teleserye na nars, di pa sigurado ang pamagat, pero nasabi dun na sa abscbn ito ipapalabas at pagbibidahan ni judy ann)

proud pinoy ako at di ako talaga nanglalait... pero really????? hay...

wow!!!!!
it's been awhile...
not that i was on vacation...
infact it was everything but a vacation...

anyway...

galing ako ng maynila this past weeks...
OO, lumuwas ang probinsyanong ito...

ngayon lang naman ako nakapost dahil andito na ako ulit sa maliit na bayan namin sa probinsiyang itago natin sa pangalang "may mayon at may cwc"
at kahit nakaka internet din ako dun, di ako makapagpost dahil di ko kaya sa ibang computer magsulat...

anu nga ba ang ginawa ko sa maynila???(sasabihin ko na din kahit wala namang interesadong makaalam)

alam naman siguro ng nakararami na ako ay nabibilang sa ilang milyong unemployed sa pilipinas... at dahil sa ayaw kong magtrabaho bilang isang nurse, ang pinakamagandang gawin ay makipagsapalaran sa metro...

ngunit dahil sa katamaran na din siguro...
di ako nakahanap ng trabaho dahil di naman ako naghanap...

mabuti na lang at may mga bagay na pinagawa sa akin (mga family matters) kaya hindi naman nawalan ng saysay ang pagluwas ko...

nagawa ko naman lahat kaya ng matapos imbes na maghanap ng trabaho umuwi na lang ako dahil na din sa pagkahomesick...

oo... madali akong mahomesick...
tanda ko nung nagreview ako ng local board sa maynila...
sa ika limang araw ko pa lang, umiyak ako sa simbahan ng st jude, mabuti na lang at walang masyadong tao nun... kaya di naman nakakahiya… OK nakakahiya yun… (sino bang linoloko ko!)

hindi ako iyakin... madali lang mahomesick...
parang may ala separation anxiety disorder...

napansin nga ng mga kaibigan ko...
pag nagkikita kita kami... ayoko na sa bahay sila tumatambay dahil nalulungkot ako pag umaalis sila... pag kumakain naman kami sa labas gusto ko sabay sabay kaming umuuwi...

hindi ko alam...
kung totoo yung, "MAS MABUTI NA IKAW ANG UMALIS KAYSA IKAW ANG IWAN"
siguro nga totoo…

nung nasa manila ako sinamahan ko mga klasmeyt ko dati (yung mga gusto talagang maging nurse) na mag apply apply sa mga agency para maka pag abroad...
bago pa sa kanila, may mga klasmeyt at kaibigan na din akong naka alis na ng bansa... para mag trabaho... napag isip isip ko... parang ako lang ang kawawa...
tambay... at di nakapagtataka dahil di nga ako naghahanap ng trabaho... hay...

siguro nga kung iba ang course ko may trabaho na ako...
pero walang “what if” sa buhay...
naganap na ang naganap...
di na mababalikan ang nakaraan...
kaya... walang ibang pwedeng gawin kung hindi isipin ang ngayon...

hay buhay...
pahinga muna ako ngayon...
sa sunod na balik ko sa maynila...
maghahanap na ako ng trabaho...
hay...
BAHALA NA SI BATMAN!!!!

at ngayon...
ako ay aalis na dahil may nagtext sa akin kagabi,
isang kaibigan nung college na matagal ko ng di nakikita...
ililibre nya daw ako ngayon magsine ng harry potter with snacks...
sana nga with lunch pa kaya lang sama ng panahon dito sa amin...

sino ba naman ako para tumanggi...
best things in life are free ika nga...

kaya siguro, di na muna ako maghahanap ng trabaho at parang ok naman maging charity case ng mga mayayaman kung kaibigan...

sarap din pala ng buhay... paminsan minsan...
