A Huge Wave of Zombies is Approaching

A Huge Wave of Zombies is Approaching

Dun dun doom...

Haha. That's what it felt like every time people suddenly bombarded us with blood tests and examinations. I have been recently working in a laboratory as a medical technologist. At first it was hard for me, all the paperwork, things and stuffs that I have to learn all at once, not to mention coping up and adjusting to the new environment I suddenly stumbled into. Talk about multitasking everything! But as time goes by, I found myself blending in. Yeay me! (clap clap clap) Haha. I'm now in the Clinical Chemistry section. Dun dun doom... It is where everything seems to run in the fast pace. Hours could slip me by as I operate those machines and process those endless batch of bloods.
Foo wee... I really thank God for helping me survive through this day. If life is like a game, I felt like I have unlocked a new achievement today. Hooray! Right now, I just want to cuddle up and curl on my bed again. Goodnight people.


The day is soon over.

White Wind

Writing in this strange room,
Drifting to the scene of the early tune,
Flashes of memories unloosed,
As cold white wind starts the monsoon.

I was once again a six or seven,
Sights, sounds, smell are my reminiscence.
Standing outside, feeling the rain,
Looking for something in vain.

Gray soft clouds of the morning sky,
Rests my sleeping eyes like a lullaby.
No problems troubled my young mind,
Living each day, carefree, without binds.

Now, deep is my yearning,
To fill up gaps that's been missing,
To turn back time and stop its running,
And to undo things that is haunting.

Such thoughts gives no one a hint,
As to what's rumbling on the inside,
For the outside won't even flinch,
As life continues to abide.

Clouds are once again blinding my view,
But I found joy, remembering the white wind in the early tune.


Singing a song.

Sakay na!

Yeay! My first Tagalog title. HAHA. Anyway, the most convenient and practical way of commuting here in the Philippines is of course, our trusty and rusty Sarao Jeepneys. I ride the jeep to and from Manila and Quezon City almost everyday. Traveling the rocky baku-baku roads and inhaling the polluted air of Manila is always part of this journey. But besides all of these rockets and discomforts, every time I ride this poor excuse tin for a car, I get to meet a lot of people and see a lot of things. Different faces that come with different sizes. The only thing that we have in common is that we are all inside this smoke-belching machine. Have you ever wondered how our lungs cope up with the dirty air that we take in everyday? Well, I do and have always did. We must have accumulated a lot of charcot leyden macrophages. HAHA. There is of course a good side and a bad side in everything. I must have already witnessed a couple times of on-the-spot pickpocketing stealing pursenappers and have experienced a few of their expertise but it has not always been like that. God have always been good and have always heard my cries. But you know, sometimes this noise-blasting machine carries a rare surprise. Little children would sometimes climb aboard and distribute old dirty crumpled up envelopes with a note written on it. I seldom put coins in them and would prefer not to whenever I can. But I would gladly hand them biscuits and other snacks that I happened to have. If I have a chance, I would encourage people to share food rather than money. Why? That is because, I have already seen so many of them getting addicted to a lot of stuffs like cigarettes, rugby and who knows what else. By giving actual food, we can prevent them from buying harmful things. I have always been sadden at the sight of 5-6 years old boys smoking marlboros and other cigarette brands. The smoke is already a painful contribution to the nature but when they have finished smoking, the cigarette butts are now an additional drain cloggers. Three cheers for mankind.
Another good side of our Saraos is that, lately I've been noticing garbage cans tied up right behind the driver's seat. Litters and garbage are always a huge problem to our society. Some people are just too lazy to throw those unwanted things in the garbage can. There's one instance that I actually reached out my hand to one of the passengers sitting beside me and offered my help to throw her empty bottle before she got a chance to throw it outside the window. Haha. Funny that she didn't notice the garbage can sitting right in front of all of us. Anyway, remember that I have mentioned about meeting a lot of people? Well, I met someone with a unique feature. Remember "Meet the Robinsons"? Haha. I love all Pixar's animations. I can't forget this movie because of the mind-controlled dinosaur. He was all fierce and beastly trying to capture the boy (I forgot the name) and was unable to accomplish it because he have a big head and little arms (demo with dinosaur voice and match it with waging arms). Well, you see this guy sitting across of me, he have the exact arms of the dinosaur. His was only half the size of a normal arm. I was amazed and I admired him for living a normal life.
Different people, different stories, different lives. Good or bad, it's all up to you on how you make the best out of it. Now, do you still have the guts to ride the jeep? Of course you can! Sakay na! What are you waiting for? ^_^


From my point of perspective.
