Unli-life.

I donated blood today! I was actually the first one there to donate, but there was another guy who came soon afterwards so I wasn't alone. And even if he wasn't there, I still wouldn't be alone.. I got my friends there to support me. :-) It felt so good once the procedure was done. I feel like supahhmannn.

Julienne

The memory that I am about to share about her is probably.. the only most memorable moment we have ever had. Well, I remember attending one of the Villaruz party.. and i remember one of the Tita's were taking out the ingrown from her toe. I was sitting next to julienne and because she was so terrified, she held my hand.. and I held hers.

As I ponder back upon this memory, I can't help myself but smile. She of all people, would be afraid of a little ingrown in her toe - yet, she was not afraid with the fact that her life could be taken away any day,.. any second.

And when I think about my life, about how or when I would die, I shudder with fear with just the thought of it. Death is inevitable. It is so unexpected, yet it is. It brings pain, yet it makes people stronger.

I have already experienced losing the loves of my life. I have moved on, but that doesn't mean I have already forgotten. I wish Julienne was still here to hold my hand, just like I held hers, to reassure me that everything will be okay.

Julienne died because of cancer. She was a very young, beautiful woman. Even though we weren't close, I hope you felt the love I had for you from the exchanged greetings, smiles and laughter we shared everytime we saw each other. I love you! Sleep well little one. And please tell my mom that I miss her everyday <3

amazing race

OH yeah.. it was amazing alright. But it was without a doubt funnn :) the race consisted of:

-everyone in my team has to eat something really shady. Like.. Ketchup.. or attay. <- hella disgusting

-had to position ourselves on the right hollow block without touching the floor

-ramon and i had to catch a frog while my other team mates had worms in their shirts

-had to answer some questions related to nursing.

-we had to make our way to a certain point using newspapers.. then we had to go inside these trashcans filled with water and dye and find padlocks.

-we had to memorize a certain pattern of pictures for 30 seconds. then we had to find the pictures by partners (yeah we had to tie our legs together) around the field and out them in order <- we made ONE mistake

-they made a maze inside one of the classrooms. PITCH DARK inside there. Goal: To make sure the candle is still lit when we make it out of the room. At the end of the maze.. there's a question we had to answer. <- got that wrong too.

-we then had to form a circle and all of us had to tie our legs together and reach a certain tree and go back. (it hella hurtss). while moving, we got the chance to know a little something about each other.. we had too because then they would ask a question about one of the team members and jemille had to answer it.

- then we had to decipher a code that resulted to two questions and we had to answer it. Pretty easy but hella long.

-then our last challenge was.. we had to fill half of a shot glass with our TEARS. shaddy. hahaha.

Got Blood?!

Sorry for the small ass font from my last blog. I tried to resize it but it wouldn't. Anyways, today i couldn't stand being at home. I had to get my ass out of the house. Ruby was kind enough to invite me to whatever plans she had today. We ate our lunch @ Jeriza's house, then went to school to attend their meeting. I'VE DECIDED I'M GOING TO DONATE BLOOOD! for two reasons:
1) because i can save 3 lives; and
2) i can finally get my tattoo.

The whole meeting thing was pretty fun. It was for the red cross organization and i felt i was invading their privacy because i wasn't part of the organization. Buttttt it seems cool, i'll most likely join it next semester.
