wanna leave the country syndrome

Why do i have this feeling that most Filipinos want to leave their motherland? Maybe because we are all fed up with the corruption, the kind of justice system we have and maybe because most of us are starting to starve more and more each day..

Well in my case and including my friends, local RN's and US- RN's alike, are now trying to find jobs even in places we hardly thought of working.. Dubai is the favorite, but places like Saudi Arabia and Qatar are already being considered.. I also know a number of people who are already starting to find amounts like 200 or 300 thousands just to get to canada or new zealand.. Worse is I heard friends who even said that they are willing to work anywhere so long as it's outside the country..

I for instance have thought of submitting applications over the internet even if a have an active application for US.. I am just afraid of commiting fault especially that i signed a contract with one agency.. huhu.. But I will still try my luck and risk my documents, just to have a fall back should my the united states close its doors on me.. toink! hehe

Murakami

After coming from a seminar in davao medical center, i decided to drop off at the National bookstore in gaisano mall to do one of my favorite hobbies.. To window shop for books, novels basically.. there i saw some of the books by Haruki Murakami, and god i really want to have them.. Just by its title and by reading the synopsis at he back of the book, i was really convinced that those books are interesting and engaging.. now here's the catch, and is the case most of the time.. i do not have the money to buy them books.. huhuuw.. but it's ok.. i know someday i'll be able to afford them all and i'm gonna spoil myself with all the books i want.. yeah! now that's waiting and patience for you!

Flights 5J596 and 5J597

One thing I learned when I reviewed for IELTS the other month was the difference of a tourist and a traveller. This was in preparation for our speaking exam, thanks to our “super leakage” hahaha sooo pinoy.. ```A tourist is a person who stay in a place to satisfy his thirst for fun leisure bla bla bla.. A traveller on the other hand is a person who embarks on a trip to carry out official and important task for work, an institution bla bla bla```..

With my recent trip to Cebu, I consider myself to be the latter.. Yes, I wrote it right, I just got back from an overnight trip from the queen city of the south.. A place which I find to be so comfortable with.. Char! Well this could be due to their language, and I am proud to say that I can easily pull a bisaya twang despite my being an ilonggo.. hahaha!

I actually paid visit to my agency, Golden Eagle, a proud member of Padpao.. hahaha! I signed a formal contract that binds me and their good office which advocates in sending nurses to that side of the world where pasture is greener, i hope.. hehe.. The transaction was over in an hour while the rest of my hours was spent window shopping and getting myself lost in the Paseos of Ayala.. I was also supposed to meet an old friend who turned 24 this day, but due to time constrain, this reunion did not materialize.. Whaaat? Time constrain? Hehe basta.. Anyway, belated happy birthday Arcenio!

what do i do next?

After eventually graduating from Nursing and finishing all my exams, I came to realize that I am left with doing nothing.. tsktsk.. Of course I know that I should be working by now, both for experience and for my sustenance, but what can I do? Things do not seem to work my way, in my applications, that is. I prepared about 10 sets of application forms and submitted them to all the hospitals that I could ever think of (except those in marbel, bwahaha!).. Still I remain, jobless, bummer, and seemingly the subject of criticism? Why is that? Well, some think that I am not going through this nasty job hunting, while others believe that I am at leisure right now enjoying my days and wasting some cash.. hhuhoow!

Good enough I have this very powerful ego that tells me not to be bothered of the people around me and the pressure they post on me.. So long as I know what I am doing and what I need in life there is nothing that I should be worried about.. Special thanks to those who think the way I do, especially those who extend efforts in making me feel that what I am going through right now are pretty nomal.. I think, what I can do is to continue waiting, trusting and believing that my Father God will always lead me to where He believes is best for me..

And why not marbel by the way? It is an undeniable fact that I love marbel, the people there, my family, my very very supportive relatives, and that different sense of security when I am home.. Sadly, there are things that are just so hard to explain and are so hard to take living with? Gets? hehe.. Basta yun na!

a good start

I have actually been wanting to own a blog of my own, but since the pressures that I used to have made it so impossible to happen, it took me this long to start rollin’.. I believe this is the best time to start writing, explaining and inspiring people especially now that I am a certified jobless nurse.. tsktsk.. Hope you enjoy reading and God Bless!
