On the Frontline

The Philippines 2020 May 31, 2020 0

Been on the frontline for almost 2 weeks now. It’s been really tough for us since as you know, the weather in the Philippines is not that great and even though we have the air conditioned inside the laboratory, I find myself sweating a lot more inside the suit. The weather is a factor because for some reason, we can’t get the laboratory temperature below 26-28C and it’s actually supposed to be at 20C. So it’s either the weather or the aircon. I’m so sorry for those who healthcare workers who have it worst. Public hospitals for example. I feel you.

First day of duty.

Second Day

Third Day

Fourth Day

Fifth Day

On the fourth day, two of the former medical technologists paid us a visit and brought food! I only one of them because you know, I being her replacement and I only heard stories of the other one and yeah it was really nice seeing them both to be honest.

That's all I have to say now. So far I am safe and I hope I will be safe throughout this pandemic. Mostly for my family. HAPPY TO SERVE. Keep safe everyone. Stay at home maybe.

Starting 2020 With a Blog

Philippines 2020 January 01, 2020 0

Would it be too much if I blog everyday for 2020? Yup. It’ll be too much. Anyways, we lit up some firecrackers and blow torotots to cast away bad spirits as the elders would say. It changed, you know. This way of celebration greatly differs from how we used to celebrate the new years. Most of our doings became illegal to start of but yeah we used to light up really dangerous fireworks and stuff which I was never a fan of to be honest. I just like the soft lights and stuff.

Mass at Sto. Domingo church

We attended Mass just like we used to but we didn’t watch a movie or something. We used to watch another movie during New Year but yeah I’m kinda okay we didn’t because there’s actually no more movie that I want to watch from the MMFF entries. Well Miracle in Cell No. 7 but we probably won’t because my mom doesn’t want to watch stuff like that. Would just want to watch comedy all the time.
