A Truly Noble Profession

Wednesday, April 14, 2010


Being in the medical profession is a very noble job. That makes me think; almost all my cousins are care givers, nurses or doctors. It has been like a trend I guess and I wouldn't blame them because this has been in demand for years now. The aged population for the US, Japan and Europe increased over the decade; and since we supplied medical workers for these countries the medical assistants position has been in dire need too. Since it has been in demand, the chances of getting a job are easy and special assistants for medical specialists are a must.

The medical assistant course can be also achieved through on line programs. In as little as 6 to 8 weeks you can go through the normal procedure of learning on line and taking the exam for this profession through institutions like St. Augustine School of Medical Assistants. There are a lot of people already taking up this course which is quite new to medical professionals in this side of the world. I am optimistic that pretty soon we would be able to also fill up the need for the medical assistant position and still lead in terms of quality in the labor force wherever we may be in the world. I am proud that my family has been part of this industry since the 1940's and helped a lot of people as nurses and doctors for the UN, International Red Cross and Doctors without Borders. I hope I would be able to help too in the near future. It will be in my own little way!

Thank you Ms Daphne Osena Paez, F and OLAY!







I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ms. Daphne Osena-Paez and the well missed TV show F... and of course OLAY for this package they sent me in the mail this morning. This is the perfect thing for Me, My Mom and My Sister. Mom's been using this since she was a teenager; she got it shipped all the way from the US so imagine around 40 years or maybe more she couldn't remember ha-ha! I liked how her face just light up when she saw the package because she knows most of the products she is using is there and I wouldn't mind sharing. After all she is the one who started this all. If you only could hear the WOOOOOWS and jaw drops in between when we opened the box. I'll treasure each and every bit of it!

Thank you Ms. Daphne! This is indeed a summer to remember! We've been following your site for the longest time and as I said, it pays to be an avid reader! Can't wait for F! (if ever you plan to get together again)... thank you for the opportunity to be part of this... thank you to OLAY too!

My NBA Top Picks


My top teams for this season are quite easy. I am pushing my luck though on the Cleveland Cavaliers since LEBRON JAMES is still resting and the whole team is winning game after game. Maybe if they do let him play soon it would look like a massacre on the court. Second best would probably be everyone's favorite the LA LAKERS. I don't really have that much to say but how can people forget KOBE BRYANT and his philandering days... he just played a lot and won a couple of championships and now everyone is treating him like a saint. I am not surprised though because people easily forget. Now they are the league's defending champion, they will be the heavy contender to butt heads against the Cavaliers. In the end I think when LEBRON plays, they will probably be easy to beat. I hope there was some way for me to have nba expert picks so I would not be guessing who will win this season. There are lots of on line resources like where I could start looking at.

Boston could also be in the running for America's next top basketball team but it could be a long shot. I think the losses they had in the past might hunt them and if they are going to be pit against the Cavaliers, they wouldn't stand a chance. Orlando had a few failed games so if ever there would be a battle from the east, it would be between those three. Who's your pick?! Would you take a chance on LA or Cavaliers?! The Spurs already lost so my favorite team is not on the list ha-ha!

Where Is Arroyo?!


Are you wondering where President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo is?! She's in Washington apparently and attended the Nuclear Security Summit. The United States and Russia are cutting down on weapons and this is something like the first step to further eliminate the need to use it for weaponry. Their goal is to rid the world of these weapons totally, I just wish they really are doing it in their own country.

What if the others did really did not keep their weapons and only a few only have it?! Are we going to suffer if a world war erupts?! Countries like ours that do not have atomic weapons are at shooting range anytime of the day. We will probably be one of the few targets in the Pacific Ocean because we are strategically located near all the other countries. I hope there was some way we could make one ourselves. Or maybe home grown missiles from garlic or cow dung and manufactured somewhere in Bocaue, Bulacan. That would be really nice to see since we are still gonna save the earth, we are organic ha-ha!


So?! How's the weather down there?!

Easy Media Duplication


I have given my URBAN themed models some copies of the high resolution pictures I took a few months ago. It was a little overdue. I already have that set sent to the organizers but someone took it out of our virtual drive. Good thing I have them on data DVD; so I recovered and sent them edited copies of it. I have to render more since I entered parts of it in a contest. Luckily I will now have my photo printed in their magazine; but I need high resolution ones. These are commonly large files and I would not be able to fit all of them in one CD or DVD. That is what you will get when you do full frame. Diskette Duplication is quite hard to do since media of this sort is not available at home or even in the office.

I need to also have the release forms ready since some of my subjects are also minors. Most of the street photos I have concern the situation in the streets so I can't really avoid that. I made sure none of them were used for anything but the art of photography. Since I don't know how to quantify how much media I need to supply the event coordinators so they can take a look at my work, I need an institution that would be able to produce large quantities. I also need to have the videos I made for the slide shows I prepared too. I need something like the CD duplication Boston has. Duplication and mastering might take a while if I just leave it to amateurs. I need professionals to do it for me and I expect something that would be able to emulate companies like COPTECH DIGITAL as a standard. I know we can get a lot of information about this there. It's where we can obviously see that Boston Printing has never been better. Thank the heavens for easy media duplication; it made my life a little bit easier!

Yum-O! =)

I just suddenly laughed at myself a little. I think I know why but I don't know how to tell you this. Ahmm... the thing is, I think I can cook. I am not a professional chef like my brother or a seasoned cook like my Mom but I think I can cook anything that I have tasted. I think I guess I do. I'm into spicy stuff and most of the dishes I whip up are all spicy. It kinda ends up that way even if I don't want to. Probably because I am worried that if other people do not appreciate what I cooked, I'd be able to finish eating it ha-ha!

Mom still cooks for everyone though. I guess this evening she did already give in to some of the spices that I use for cooking. The pesto and butter and a lot of cayenne pepper helped a lot. I even almost finished eating the batch she prepared not knowing there was nothing anymore for my sister when she comes home. We're kinda in different shifts :) opposites actually. So on a weekday we do not have that much communication because when I come in, she's preparin to go out.

I'm planning to cook for some friends now. Some of them are HRM Graduates and I think I'll probably fare quite good. My brother is a professional chef anyway so maybe some of his skills might have brushed off on me. I wish! LOL

I Want to See San Diego!


I remember my grandma brought me lots of stuff from Sea World when she went to San Diego years ago. I had the nicest toys and souvenirs from that place and it started my fascination with the place. It must have been the one that triggered the urge for me to visit that place one day. I never knew there were more things to be interested in. Have you ever seen San Diego Weddings?! There are a lot of stories and unions in that part of the world that is the envy of people. I am not surprised because a simple Company Cruise San Diego would tell you how posh and sweet it is to live life to the fullest. I would really want to experience this!

I swear if there would be another girl for me to be with soon I would gladly bring her there. The place is dreamy and on some instances quite amazing. If I hold my own one there; I'm sure we would be the envy of everyone! I couldn't blame them, after all the place looks so perfect! San Diego Cruise Wedding is another thing to experience. Feeling the wind against your face on a quaint blue sea and sky... that would be just phenomenal! I love the sights and things in San Diego and I would really love to experience all of these soon. I know I've got the makings of a great getaway!

Rufo's... Cheap and Good Food!

I admit I have been eating take out's since three years ago and I haven't been the healthy picker when it comes to this. Since I have some sort of high blood pressure, I hurriedly went to the clinic and had my BP checked with the company nurse. She mentioned 130/90 which is kinda my regular rate so you know what I ordered?!

Rufo's Scrumptious Liempo!

As if I wasn't afraid of a mild stroke I ordered pork LOL. I don't know where my diet would be but I'm sure I am gonna gain weight. I haven't been to the beach yet so I am not sure where we would be spending summer to flaunt my sculptured german physique LOL. I am getting quite amused by this and it should stop one way or another. I need to follow some diets strictly. This ain't helping I know but I am going to go back to the gym later, I hope I can burn this out.

Might as well spend the hour or two in the treadmill rather than not doing anything at all....

*pickup shoes* off to gym! =)

I'm Looking for Wordpress Themes

Monday, April 12, 2010


I have been blogging since 2003 and this has been my passion. Obviously I have gone to a lot of platforms and I find only a few pass my standards with regards to BLOG formats. I love WORDPRESS and I have a lot of friends who use it. I actually have one too but I prefer to keep that private for now. If I launch that in a couple of months I will surely need free wordpress themes since I will be targeting a specific audience. Themes may make or break a site and if I do not use one and depend on the default templates from WP people may find it boring and never come back.

My idea is to have it look like that one on top. I love the fire red color with three columns. I have to make room for other things like links and widgets from other entities other than word press. There are great sites we can get those templates from like WPREX etc. and it has proven to be a great resource for BLOG enthusiasts like me. I have to change the look of my site every now and then and WPREX seem to have more than I ever need. I frown at the sight of someone using the same template as I am so if ever I need to change in a jiffy; a simple download there would take me a few seconds. I like it a lot!

My Eyes Hurt


I don't know what's wrong with me but this has been bugging me since this morning. I have high blood pressure I guess but this time, my eyes hurt... and it hurts a lot. I have been trying to sleep it off since it maybe that I am just tired but I am not that sleepy anymore so I'm trying to look for things with these symptoms. My doctor named google LOL just told me a lot of things but I probably should visit a real doctor soon.

I didn't know there was high blood pressure in the eyes and most probably I will be able to know what went wrong with mine after I go out of gym tomorrow. I haven't been working out for the longest time. I think it has been about 3 weeks already. I probably am wasting hardearned money on monthly dues but I have to make these things available for me whenever I get the itch to go back and workout again. I just hate it when I can't... because I am either too sleepy or too stressed from work already that I don't have the energy to lift weights or run for a while. The problem is, I even drink beer right after I go out of gym. I even smoke on some instances. I need to go back and do a healthy lifestyle. I am trying you know!

I'll visit the clinic later. Maybe get some sort of first aid on this thing because it still hurts. I hope it is nothing serious. I'll have my blood pressure checked just to make sure. I hope it is not related to my high blood findings last corporate checkup. I mean I am kinda used to them saying that I am. I just don't like them pushing it. =P
