Doc Mimay Notes

i was sorting some old stuff in my room, when i came across a folded 2 piece yellowish old bond paper, a photocopy of an article from signs of the times way back 2001. it was the same article na na-touched ako years ago, kayo pinaphotocopy ko. i knew there was something important with this that i kept it for a very long time... i read it again... and i cried.. and it seems like i am reading it for the first time again.

while browsing thru Facebook.. i stumbled upon this article, shared by 2 of my Facebook friends from theprayingwoman.com i clicked the link and started reading... next thing i know am already crying....

the moment i shaded my last vote, i said to my self, "Lord, your will be done". Politics always intrigues me. Always. I dunno why i took medicine instead of political science but every political issue, i always feel the need to be informed, to be educated, to be involved. As ordinary citizen, i know i should take part. I should learn more. In the past national and local elections i've been clearly taking my active part in voicing my opinion in writing and in social media. I was in highschool when the impeachment of President Erap was a hot issue. I was an editorial writer back then. The need to be involved in every political issue was there right from the very begining. But this 2016 elections was different. I rarely stated my opinion on social media, posted few about elections on my account, only discussed my opinion to a friend once and never again. I have doubts with all the presidential candidates, i secretly wished for Senator Escudero to run for presidency but t...

when i was a kid, i saw my mom as a school principal with many rules.. don't do this, don't do that, fix your bed, clean this up, blah blah blah. but growing up, i realized, she just love us enough to make an orderly, peaceful, safe home.  every morning she will wake up early and will prepare breakfast for us, pero dahil ang bagal namin kumilos, hindi na namin nakakain ang mga hinahanda nya. minsan gumagawa pa sya ng pizza para ganahan kami kumain, pero ganun pa din naiiwan namin ng walang bawas. but even though we were doing it every morning, she will still prepare for breakfast for the next morning, and the next and the next. looking back-- i saw how painful it is.

I just realized that we are in a microwaveable-f ast food-generation when I am a fast-food counter ordering for my dinner of fries, sandwich and a glass of soft drink. I just realized that for the past days, I’ve been like this, always on the go, always hurrying things up, eating fast-food foods while walking on my way home.

Today marked the worst day of life.. Since 2016 started. Why worst? Because at the start of the day, my temper was tested, my anger bursted out, the me i am molding to be a better person for so long was just pushed to the limits.

A test of FAITH Today marked the 2 nd day that I am not required to open and read these numerous books and handouts I can now only see afar. The time 1 wouldn’t be guilty if ever I will end up with longer hours of sleep (than what I am supposed to). Because for the 1 st time, I don’t have an idea of what am I going to do next. The very same day, I was having tremors as I opened the PRC website, having mixed emotions on what am I gonna see… WHERE IT ALL STARTED? Why I wanted to become a doctor.
