TING CHIP: Wrapping up first half of MARCH 2012

Before I'll leave for Mirangan (NEW ZEALAND! LOL), I would like to share some of my highlights for this month. <3

The first 2 weeks are indeed filled with adrenergic-like moments! Thrills and rush collide and its essence contained in a box.. then, VIOLA! A fantastico-present for my "surprise-immuned system"

because of hectic scheds and for being serious in internalizing that I'M A STRESS-EATER,

 i got this strange habit of eating a WHOLE LOAF BREAD topped with CORNED BEEF AND EGG. *stress*

thanks to Ate Majie's drawings, I got to absorb some of Pediatric Developmental Milestones.

For me, it's easier to "memorize" info if you design it in drawings and stories. :)

I also remember my friend-sister, Haleema. :) I gave her tips in studying like making drawings and using

other's names and birthdays just to "absorb" info. :D

 

Last March 3, 2012, I've witnessed my friend's Pagkawin (Traditional Muslim Wedding) :). Destinee, a Muslim revert shared her heart to her long-time boyfriend, Kuya Bran. :) I'm glad that they both end in each other's arms, Alhamdulillah. 

WE LOVE 9GAG. :D 

ESPECIALLY CEREAL GUUUUUUY!

one of my NGARAG moments. MCH exams :l

Alhamdulillah, I passed the series of exams. I admit, it's one of the toughest exam that I took. 

I felt like I answered BOARD EXAM questions. @@ It was really haaaaard.

I cried couple of times because of these lethal exams (written and the OSCE!!)

AND I ADMIT! I'm such a slow-poke in MATH. Hahaha! Biruin nyo, I even had a hard time in computing 49 divided by 7!! CRAAAP. @@ I almost want to burst during that 15 min computation!! GRAAR! But, thank God, I passed the computation exam with a CORRECT answer (thanks for adding 7 seven times. hahaha. and for my fingers to compute LOL LOL) I also passed OSCE and the written exams ^_^

THANK YOU YA ALLAH! <3

AGAIN, I'M A STRESS-EATERRRRRR!

I also thank Allah for making this symposium possible. It was such a blessing. :') Dra. Abutazil talked about time management in ISLAMIC WAY. She coupled it with hadiths and quranic messages. I almost want to cry  on every revelations she shares. @@ 

Indeed, ya Allah is Ar Rahman and Ar Raheem.

HAHAHA. *LAUGHTERS!!!* Last March 7, it's our father/ama's birthday. So we decided to post a video

LOL LOL. sorry for the vid. We took it ONE SHOT BIG TIME. blah! :D

(that's our pambahay looks. BWAHAHA! PIGIL NA TAWA! and tausug subs!)

and of course, yesterday, it's my MAMA'S bday! :) surprised her with tagalog-drama novels (TO DIE FOR-DRAMA) and we took her for lunch in FFC ^_^ gave her cake and balloons too. :) Seeing her smile is indeed a blessing. :) I just love making my parents happy and proud. ^_^ hope Allah grant them more years and blessings! :)

happy birthday mamalou! :D

That's it for now. :) Perhaps I can post my Mirangan adventures after a month InshaAllah. :)
Pray for our safety and success for our CHPs. *.*
It's MORPHIN' TIME all for the LORD! :D amen! :)

TING CHIP: HAPPY FEET

I can still remember an old visitor of my Ama. She is an old lady whom my father calls her "auntie". He used to shower her with hugs and kisses on her hands. Then, at the back of my innocent thoughts, I realized that perhaps, this old lady is an important person in my father's life. I was there playing with my dolls (Perhaps I was 8 years old by that time..) and my father asked her to check on my soles.. and with eagerness I showed her both of my feet. She carefully examined my soles and she told my father that...

I WILL GET TO TRAVEL A LOT.

and I guess, APUH (Grandma) is right. :D

I LOVE TRAVELLING! :) I'm indeed blessed to visit different places already. But unfortunately, I haven't got a chance to take some pics on some of the places that I've visited :( but, nevertheless, they are still fresh in my mind. :D
