Where Did My 27 years, 17 days and 4 hours of Life Go?

Apparently, my personal information can be summarized in 2 words & 2 numbers: 59MB.

No Rest For The Wicked

The moment you cannot remember your password for a site, means zero, zilch, nada activity for a loooong time. Well, it happened to me just now, which is quite obvious since my previous entry dated a few months ago. And after multiple failed attempts in trying to retrieve it from my memory, I’ve resorted to resetting it & sending a new one to my email. Note to self: start writing down passwords — signs of aging are irrevocably showing.

Anyhow, UPDATES!

Here are numerous information that I have gathered from my life as a dialysis nurse while moonlighting as a textbased research specialist. What your teachers should’ve taught you in school but didn’t:

1. If you’re consistently late for work and decided to be on time, it’s when Murphy’s Law will strike at you with vengeance. Seconds after uttering the fatal words, “What else could go wrong?” Your mode of transportation will break down/get a flat tire in the middle of skyway, 473 other commuters have decided to go to work the same time you did & prevent you from catching the train, a transport strike will immediately ensue or the side of your pants will accidently get ripped by an unsuspecting nail just as you were about to reach your stop.

2. If you’re in the medical field or any line of work that requires your taking breaks by shifts, when a co-worker asks you if you’ve eaten yet just say “NO” then have your lunch break. It’s better to be the first one to take a break & covering up for your workmates than delaying it & your workmates finding you collapsed on the floor due to hypoglycemia/hunger. Better yet, always have a mint in your back pocket in case you feel hungry or the doctor you’ve had a crush for the longest time might suddenly appear for his/her patient rounds.

3. Ed Westwick is actually British. Okay, so this one is for me.

4. Nipples can also appear retracted. Note that I have used ‘can’ and not ‘may’ since I doubt that making it crooked falls into this category. And if you do that, by the way, ouch.

5. In movies, people will always have the time to kiss or deliver a dramatic line & withhold the most important information as they are about to die. But the most irking one is when they fall as the killer was chasing them then turn & watch until it catches up to them. Don’t they have any sense to just stand up & run once more? I can’t help but slap my hand on my forehead from irritation with this one. You should’ve just ran, stup*d! Now, look where that got you.

6. In road accidents, the driver of the public bus/jeepney will always slow down, not to help those involved but only to know what happened so as to report to their friends that they were at the scene of the crime in case the news reaches national television.

I’ve also played with the idea of creating a 2011 resolution list. But I’ll have to see if I have enough determination left to push this through.
