For SCIENCE and <3
After our surveys and all that, we found out that Tuberculosis is the primary concern in the community that we're in. With that being said, we focused on the problem. 


We conducted a seminar, had games, had fun, gave free food, and all that stuff. I guess it's really very helpful for the community since according to the survey we conducted last time, most of them are not able to finish school so it's not everyday that someone like our speaker would come to their community and inform them about their number 1 concern when it comes to health.


Us hearing our leader's explanation. Me playing the role of kunwaring nakikinig. Chika lang. Haha


We invited an alumni as a speaker of the said event. We, students, actually listened more to the lecture than the stake holders. Quite an awesome lecture.


F na F! The guys should actually have their dance number but since they're too shy to dance, these little kiddos did the thing for them.


And then us, the food committee did our thing. We distributed packed lunch to the people who attended our seminar and all that thing that happened. I don't know if my group mates feel the same way or whatever but I really feel thankful for this experience. Thankful that I get to talk to people who I probably wouldn't have a chance to talk with if not for this activity.  I'm not a people person. I might consider being a PATHOLOGIST. 


Anyways, thank you UST for having a program like this. I mean, even though it can really be so tiring, at the end of the day, you can always give it a rest. But you can't take away the experience. Thank you Mr. Tiu and Mr. Raymundo for the pictures! :) I owe these pictures to you guys.

Time to Fly.

Time to Fly.

I am fascinated by butterflies. I don't know why. This post is not actually about butterflies, birds, or anything else. This is a post about me being 21. Pagbigyan na please. LOL. Not only being 21 though but some other random things that I want to say just because. ALWAYS.

I don't know what to do. I mean, it's not like the pressure is on or anything but the pressure is really on. I didn't see it coming this fast. I mean, I did when I was 20 but when I was like 18, which is just 3 years ago, I didn't think that I would be 21 soon. Time flies. 

I want to thank all the people that helped me and accompanied me for the past 21 years of my life. My family, friends, everyone. 

To those people who never left my side when I needed them, thank you! I promise I'll always be here with you as well. To my mom who always supported me, thank you. My sisters that look up on me, I know you could do better in the future. I would always be here for you two. Keep going! 

I want to share one story that really touched me. During our last seminar in the hospital, one of our trainers left a quote that I wouldn't forget. STICK TO YOUR DREAMS. And then It made me wonder what my dreams are. TO BE HAPPY. Among many others. And I will stick to that. I mean, if you're happy, you're happy. Not all doctors are happy. Not all rich people are happy. But if you're HAPPY, and you're a doctor, then you're happy. Just like that. And then he said one more thing. "Not all those who worked hard succeeded. But all those who succeeded worked hard." And I agree with him. I mean, I don't like people who complains a lot about things (they can change). I hate people who feel so helpless well in fact, they can help themselves. 

Okay enough of that. Good vibes! :)
