It's so crazy that it's been over 2 years since I passed the MTLEX. People after us are hella lucky because you guys were given an extra week or two to cram for the exam. My batch took it at the last day of August, imagine! Anyways, I honestly don't remember much. I remember though that I had an upset stomach coming in the examination room. Like, we were actually advised to bring Loperamide, did that, took it, but still. I guess it has something to do with me being nervous and all that. I guess I was a little bit too nervous to be honest. But guess what? Whatever time you're reading this, at some point, you're gonna make it.  Picture above is a shot from my Victory Party. My cousin and my high school friends which I was always making kulit to pray for me to pass. Anyways, point of this blog post is to tell all the examiners that it's gonna be alright. You'll doubt yourself after the exams, yes, but you know, shake it all off. And believe me when I say this, ...

Hello guys! I promised to give you guys an update about how my examination turned out. After hours and hours of dreadful waiting and as one of my friends told me "Agony in the Garden", I'm sure that's not comparable but I really feel the same way. Anyway. The whole list of successful examiners was released a couple of hours ago and yeah I'm blogging about it now!  Always Do Your Best. Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret. - Miguel Angel Ruiz I passed! OMG! I can't even you guys. Thank you to all my friends and family for praying for me. I didn't tell a lot of people so I was really nervous that not a lot of people prayed for me but obviously, I have told enough people to lift me up! I actually think that even if I just only told my mom, I would still pass because she ...

So after almost 2 months of preparation, actually, almost 4 years of university preparation, and a total of 1 year of internship and extensive review, it's all over. I don't want to call it judgment day but let's just say anyway that in 2 days, all of the preparations I have made all through the years will be judged. And I hope and pray that it would't be judged just by my efforts. Please multiply it by two. Or three. Please be kind!! This September Med Tech examination is the last examination that the Examiners would give and as much as we all hoped that they would ever be so kind, we were wrong.  Can I just say that the exam questions are complicated as eff. I was like what just happened? ALL THE TIME. I don't know like I would consider it to be a miracle if I pass and Mariah Carey thought us that Miracles happen. If we believe. But I'm not so sure what miracles happened to her but the point is, I BELIEVE! And really hope for the best! I know I c...

Hola guys! I can't believe it's already August! And with that being said, Imma say it ahead now. I might not blog as much this month because it's like less than a month remaining before the board exam and I'm like panicking big time. I constructed my schedule and hopefully I would be able to follow that. I don't have much break but I hope to find time to update you with my life. Oh life. I hope this month would be so  productive so that my MTLE would turn out fantabulous (that's a word?). I hope you guys have a good month and I hope you guys make the most out of it as well. I seriously envy those who are still on break and just do whatever they want to do. Or like, not do whatever they don't want to do (lazy ass) LOL. I'll see you guys once in a while. Maybe like, twice. And yeah I'll give you guys like short updates of what's happening in my life. You know, it's actually my fault that I didn't study earlier and now I...

I just want to share you guys this. Nothing too fancy but still beautiful. I have a question for you guys. Am I the only one who thinks that this year is going by too fast? I mean, it's June already. That's like 6/12 already.  Hi guys. I think I haven't said hi to you guys at all. OMG I'm so mean! Anyways, how's June treating you so far? Me, you ask? I've started with my licensure review awhile ago. So far, so good. Actually, no proper lecture yet. What happened today was kind of awesome though. The speaker kind of inspired us to aim high and that to believe in ourselves and stuff like that which always have a place in my mind. And in my heart. There's just no room for failure right now, you know.  More of the not so awesome part of today, awhile ago, we had like a pre-test to test our stock knowledge regarding the board subjects and I was just like, what the eff? DUMBFOUNDED. I have been told that there would be a 200 item test and I ...

I want to congratulate all of my friends who passed the MTLEX. My UST, MCU, and JRMMC colleagues, I know some of you have been complaining how the result is two days late but hey, you guys passed and I'm sure it's worth all the wait. It really makes me proud of you guys. I know you've all worked so hard and sacrificed a lot for this. Well except those who didn't really study because they're flawlessly intelligent. Or lucky. Well the good thing is, you're all an RMT now and that's just awesome. MD na next! :) I remember one of my friends turned down my "Hey! Let's watch Les Mis." offer. Oh well. And most of them were really out of sight during their review. Can I do that? To be honest, I felt a little amount of pressure. But whatever. I just want to take this opportunity to CONGRATULATE my co-intern/post mate/ice cream mate/friend for making it to the top 10 list of the MTLEX passers. I feel like a proud mama.  ...
