I was experiencing a lot of back pain for the last 2 weeks so I went to see a doctor at UST to consult my pain.
Went to a general practicioner first, Dra. Maria Piedad Natividad who very well reminds me of Addisson Montgomery (Shepard). She was very classy and beautiful. She also speaks well and listens to what you have to say too. I like her already.
So she checked on what was going on with my pain at my back and found out that I have muscle problems and I needed to see a Physical Therapist. So she referred me to the Rehabilitative Medicine Department of the hospital.
I was examined by Dra. Suarez and decided that I need a series of Physical Therapy so that I could correct my lower back which was agravated by my very tight hamstrings. The therapist said that my hamstrings are too tight (especially my right leg) that causes my pelvis to twist which causes my pain at my lower back.
Okay so I am on theraphy now... but when Dra. Natividad took my blood pressure, she noticed that it was high gor my age. She then asked me to go fasting for 12 hours for some laboratory exams.
Went back to the hospital the following day and took the exams. My girlfriend was the one who claimed the result. the doctor then asked us to go back and see her after a week or two.
Step Two
At last I have set foot once again to the land of dreams of the brownman.
As I checked the last time that I blogged was on February. Such a long time.

Welcome back
It is officially 3:34 AM Manila, I am right in front of a borrowed computer here in the office.
If I am not mistaken, I have logged my last blog last November. Yes it has been a while now. It was not because I have no time, no opportunity and no strength at all to blog. It is because I had no inspiration at all!
I have been in a creative vacuum for the last few months. The reason?
last November my computer broke down and had to be fixed. The hard drive of the computer wasn't responding anymore so I had to dump it to trash.
I tried fixing my computer by using my external hard drive that I use for stroing my files. Unfortunately my efforts were futile since the installer that I was using was defective.
So at that point I decided to bring my computer at the nearest computer repair shop that I could find that looks reputable. At the shop, they backed up all of my files and had my hard disk reformated. It took a few hours (actually I was there from 2pm till the time the shop closed) to actually back-up all the files, format the HD, install the OS then put back the files that we backed up.
Once fixed I went home light hearted, thinking that everything has been fixed already and since I haven't bought memory just yet I can't actually check the computer.
The following day I went straight to the mall and bought memory for my desktop only find out that I have all 30G of my pictures files is gone!
I felt horrible the very, It felt like all of the memories that i have safely kept is gone! Thoughts like, what will i show my daughter if she asks how do I look like when I was a baby. It really felt horrible, traumatic if you may.
So why am I blogging now?
I accidentally told my story to an IT personnel in the company that i work for. Then he said that he'll fix my HD, and he did, gave him a few hours then all of my vital pics are there! It even cost nothing much since i onlyl had to feed them pizza.... hahahaha
well then I learned my lesson. do not be so comfortable with computer shops! you can never trust them..... Also upload your photos online.... saved most of my photos thanks to Multiply!
There still are a lot of the 30 gig to be recovered but at least I have my daughter's precious photos already!
So I guess its a welcome back for me...

Saturday Night Unalive!!!!
It's a Saturday night and there is nothing much to do. I am in front of my PC trying to remember what was I suppose to write about!? I was just thinking about a few moments ago and voila! I forgot it already!!!! DAMN!!!
Okay I'll just try to write up the things in my mind and maybe, just maybe I would come across that thought once again........
I woke-up yesterday at around 7PM to go to work, the dilemma was after work I have to go to school early in the morning for an examination. The thing is I haven't reviewed or read my notes on the skills that was to be covered! The worst part is that I wouldn't know what am I gonna do or demonstrate (out of the 31 skills discussed this semester)...... Thank God I got a fairly high grade 91% =)
Like I mentioned before, my girlfriend just got an offer to work in Canada. She's scheduled to fly there by April or May. As for me, I still need to finish my studies but I'll be visiting her there for sure next year.
Once I am done with my studies I plan to buy a car. Not a fancy one, but actually a dream car for me is a 2 door 1970's era car. I just have to pay for my credit cards so that I can be eligible once more to get a loan... this time I'll buy a good car!

went home on November 1 and went to the cemetery to pay my respects to our departed one. Stayed there for over 5 hours there and had chats with my cousins. Some of the photos here were retouched with PS but some were not.
Mid Month Update
Oh my! Its Mid October and this is actually my first post! Well there's really nothing much that I could do because I really don't have time that much and the Internet connection in my workplace really doesn't allow us to surf the internet.
Hmmm...... these past few days that I have been dreaming of so many things........
Dream #1
My tita who recently immigrated to the United States came home and was really excited in seeing us again but when I came in, it was time already for her to go. So we just hugged and said goodbyes and told each other till we meet again. But her reply to me was "sige... christian....sama mo si niknok pagpunta mo dun ha" (Bring you little brother with you when you go there!) that amazed me coz she mentioned it like I was just gonna go to somewhere very near.
Dream #2
I was on my way to the US and was already on a plane. Then turbulence suddenly shook our plane, the next thing I knew we were crashin! Then everything went blackout....

Light came in again and I saw my self on the same airport. I was going somewhere again, but this time I didn't ride the plane that crash. It was like a second chance to make things happen.
I have been stressed a lot dealing with this US Immigration thing. But this is something that has been into my system. as if it is somthing that I breath for. I dont know if that is something bad but I am taking it possitively.
Scholarship
The other day, Roxanne applied for a scholarship program for the US. So I helped her and accompanied to the office for an initial interview. After that initial interview she was asked to file the requirements. I helped her in composing the essay the program asked her to make entitled "Why Do I Want To Study Masters In The United States?".
I cant imagine that it took me such a long time to actually compose this blog, I had to do it for three separate occassions just to finish this thing.
School
I have been going to school for several months already and I only have 3 months of installment left and about more or less than 4 months to finish the program. I have a month left to finish my second semester and the lessons are getting more and more difficult. But once we have finished this semester off we go to the hospital for our Clinical Exposure. We'll get to handle cases hands on and not just read and write on paper.
Office
Everything is heating up in the office, I have been implimenting the performance policy very strictly and unfortunately I have been seeing some people slacking off with their jobs. So I decided to be like a NAZI when it comes to them doing their job.
Family
My Aunt Claire (and nope she's not the one happyslip's mimicking) left for North Carolina already and I hope that everything's doing fine there. She called the other day and said that she hasn't responded to our emails and PMs coz she hasn't got her laptop just yet.
All dreams shall be realized and achieved, I know somewhere, sometime it will come to me. I know that I will reach the stars I will!
