, and Intertropical ConvergenceZones
It was one of the rainiest mornings. A Friday in October when gloom enveloped the atmosphere. A time when the northeast trade winds meet the southeast trade winds. It was an unusually cold morning for a country consumed by tropical heat. An...

Occupational Hazards 2006-08-29 05:31:00 Occupational Hazards
Gradually, most of the things that my preceptor told me ever since I was a nursing student are starting to sink in. Being in one of the most litigious State in the country, it is imperative to be vigilant and watch every nursing intervention and nursing documentation. In lieu...

I am recently attending the RN Residency Program at work. One recurring topic that the instructors delve upon is assertiveness. "Assertiveness is the ability to express yourself and your rights without violating the rights of others. It is...

Discomfort Zone Disrupted 2006-07-20 07:20:00 Discomfort Zone Disrupted One might say that this entry sounds like constipation, bloating, and diarrhea. I assure the readers that it is not. Not to burst the bubble of gastrointestinal discomfort fans, such topics shall be discussed on future entries. Partly, the NPR radio essay "This I...

Pinoy Phonies 2006-06-26 06:45:00 Pinoy Phonies The topic that I may raise would seem volatile to some readers, specifically to some "balikbayans' and compatriots. After living for almost 5 years now in the US, I noticed some misguided beliefs had developed for some Pinoys here in the US. I can only wonder what the sources of...

Post-Birthday Denial 2006-06-16 02:16:00 Post-BirthdayDenial
I seem to be in a state of disarray after my birthday. One of the reasons is I am in denial of my age. For some twisted logic, I kept convincing myself that I am 20. I know I am not, but I still feel 20. Some people would contend (especially Erik Erikson) that I may not be...

We seem to live in a world wherein one's woes and frustrations are no longer private and personal. Technology may compel us to share any expressions and sentiments. Arguably, this notion may be just in time for the possible and imminent demise of the First Amendment....

Season Defiance 2006-05-24 20:45:00 Season Defiance
I was listening to NPR earlier, and they mentioned about people being amenable to the changes of the season. For instance, people will learn to accept that it is not yet strawberry season, or watermelon season, or apple season. However, my time seem to be changing. I can eat any...

Remember When! 2006-05-19 23:03:00 Remember When!
By popular demand, here's the anonymous poem that Richard read on our recent show about the 1960s:

And a trip involved travel in cars, planes, and ships?
When pot was a vessel for cooking things in
And hooked was what grandmother's rug...

EKG class 2006-05-11 19:38:00 My work requires its employees to get 90% or above to pass the EKG class
certification. As opposed to other hospitals which would only require 80-85% or better, the requirement of my work seems to be do-able and sensible. If a patient in to our unit would be given a choice, it seems that he would...

Repair 2006-04-16 19:42:03 When I was on the brink of what should and should not be done, I had done it anyway. What seems to be wrong with human nature is endless and inveterate curiosity, the desire to click the self-destruct button, thinking it would be easier to have a total overhaul, than to selectively repair what was...
