what i did today

early morning, i got a call from the san sebastian diagnostic lab, there were a few ECGs for reading. so, i dressed up and decided to jog on the way to the lab, bu then again, my little niece denise, went through several tantrums because i wouldnt let her come with me.....and so, denise went with me.we jogged, and i read the ECGs, and we went to the nearest JOLLIBEE....so much for jogging. after that, we went to mass, rested for a little while. had lunch. had my rounds at san antonio gen hospital, then rounds at cuenca district hospital, then went to visit my sick tita, kaka tacing, as we fondly call her.....sunday is family day...and thats what we did....bonded with the family. while we were at kaka tacing's house, my tita melba (my mom's sister) went to our house. too bad we didn't see her. tita melba and mom wasn't on speaking terms for 2 years now.....and tita melba went to our house because she's already leaving for the states....and my guess is that she's doing her best to reconcile with my mom.......hah......what a sunday! father's day.....and we ended the day by eating out at MAX's.......my dad's treat........hahaha........so much for father's day......my dad spent 2,000 pesos today!

good karma

life is full of surprises. i have always felt that forrest gump was a bit overboard when he said that "life is like a box of chocolates, you'll never know what you are gonna get". but actually, i'm beginning to see the wisdom in what he said. what goes up, must always come down. i never thought that i would reach this point in my life. i'm on top of the world. everything that happened to me during the first quarter of the year seems like a blur. and now, i'm reaping the harvest of my hardships....... i lost my job. i lost someone i really cared about. i lost my financial security. i failed my specialty boards. i lost my self esteem. i really felt like the world was crashing down on me. but then, there is no way that i'm going to allow things to stay that way. if i have been through the worst, surely, the best is yet to come......and it did!
