Things I've Learned In High School

Blogging was never my thing. But recently, I really don't feel like talking to anybody. So I guess, I'll do all the talking here.

I'd like to share to y'all my high school experience. Well, not really. 

Things I've Learned In High School 

Number 1. Make friends

              You really have to learn how to socialize or else you'll be left alone in one corner. You don't have to be popular or something. You just have to make yourself known to others. 

Number 2. Not everybody is your friend even when you think they are

              Out of 10 of your "friends", maybe 4 of them don't like you or they just have something to say about you. Something negative, perhaps. And some just don't say it right in front of you, they really have to say it behind your back. Sounds familiar? Yeah, backbiting. 

Number 3. Be reasonable

              If you don't like people backbiting you, then take criticisms positively. Not really positively. Have you ever heard about CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISMS? Yes. That's what they call it. You use criticisms as guides to be able to somehow change for the better.

Number 4. Prove them wrong

              Whenever people say you can't do it, show them you can. Make those people your motivation to study harder or perform better. 

Number 5. Trust yourself

              This shit is the most important. Believe in yourself. To be able to do number 4, you have to TRUST YOURSELF. Have faith. If you know and believe that you can do it... Oh definitely, you can. 

Number 6. You don't always have to be on top

              Life is not a race. You don't always have to get there first. You don't always have to compete to the extent that someone gets hurt. If you want success, just do your best and success, itself, will chase you. Don't always bear in your mind that you have to be the best, be on top, be No.1. Just DO your best. 

Number 7. Enjoy

              It won't last long. High school? Four loooooooong agonizing years of everything. But when you get to the Senior Year, you wish you were back in Sophomore Year to enjoy every single event, happening. Don't always think of your academics or this or that. Enjoy! Live! 

Number 8. Make Memories

              Make memories. Do stupid things. Enjoy your high school life. You'll get "HS Life" only once(for four years, though). Cut class. Vandalize. Fail. Whatever. One day, you'll look back and laugh at everything you've done, wise or stupid. 

Number 9. Know who your true friends are

              They always say that your high school friends are the friends who get to stay forever. Then, know who they are. It really doesn't matter if it's one or two or twenty. Make sure you have at least one. And make sure that if you go your separate ways after high school, you'll keep in touch and stay as you are. 

Number 10. Lastly, appreciate

               Sometimes, we just have to sit back and look around. There are so many reasons to be happy. And always thank those 'reasons' for being reasons to be happy. Simple gestures can mean a lot. Appreciate the value of friendship. Appreciate the value of knowledge. Appreciate the work your teachers do for you. Appreciate all the moments you and your friends spend together. Appreciate yourself. Appreciate life as it is.

At sixteen (Holy macaroons. I'm 16.), I might not know what life really is. But one thing I'm sure of is that life has its ups and downs. One day you're up there and the next day you're down low. But always remember that when you're up there, keep your feet on the ground and when you're down low, hold on and keep climbing. You'll get there, eventually.

AmaNurse? AmaDoctor? =)

Hey there, junior! :) The class was asked to answer these 6 questions last Fab. 13 and yeah. I am sort of late but nevertheless, I shall do this. You know why? Because life is a warfare! ;D Wink!

1.  If you are a good home nurse, what are the various home nursing techniques that you need to apply that will make the patient feel comfortable and speed up the recovery?

I shall know;

• How to make an unoccupied and occupied bed
• How to take the patient's vital signs
• How to bath the patient and a lot more

2.  Why should the home nurse monitor the vital signs of the patient?

A home nurse should monitor the vital signs of the patient to be able to know the patient's respiratory rate, pulse rate, temperature, blood pressure.

3.  How do you take the body temperature, pulse rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure of the patient?

Body temperature, use the thermometer. Avoid touching the bulb of the thermometer because it is fragile and unsanitary. It will be placed in the patient's mouth, armpit or rectum depending on the patient's condition.

Pulse rate, use your index finger and your middle finger to get ze pulse rate. No no use yar thumb, why? because life is a warfare ;D Next, place your two fingers on your wrist, temple, ankle or throat though wrist is the most convenient, for 1 minute and count yar pulse, nigga.

Respiratory Rate? *some text missing*

Lastly, the blood pressure, use the stethoscope and sphyg.. styg.. no, sphygmano.. oh, wait. sphygmomanometer. Yeah! That. =)) Then.. Maybe later. ;D

4.  What are some practices that the home nurse must follow that will promote comfort to the patient?


5.  How will you differentiate signs from symptoms of illnesses and diseases?

Signs? Yun ba yung sa first year? General Signs? Bio na ngayon eh. =))) Corny eh. Sorreh! Eto na. ☺ Signs are what the doctor sees and symptoms are what the patient experiences. I asked my mother to differentiate it too but, she just agreed on what I said and didn't add any more. :( So, yeah. That's it.

6.  If you are the doctor, what will be your basis in giving the diagnosis for your patient?

If I'm the doctor(never)..

I will base my diagnosis from the patient's history, the further assessments made and the signs and symptoms present in the patient. =)))

Administer Like an Administerer ;D

Hey Daydreamerrrrr ;D

Knowing the different ways and techniques and basics in administering medicine to the patient is really important. For there are instances in which it is necessary.

Administration of medicine is the manner in which a medicine is administered that will determine to some extent whether or not the patient gains any clinical benefit, and whether they suffer any adverse effect from their medicines. Administration of medicine is done by doctors, nurses and even home nurses. ☺

There are many things that I've learned from this topic.

A home nurse should know the when, where, how, what, and why a medicine should be given to a patient. It will surely help in the fast recovery of a patient. Knowing when to give the medicine to the patient is important because it is necessary to follow certain schedules in administering the medicine. Giving medicine to the patient at the right place is necessary to be able to provide needed stuff in the appropriate place.

How the medicine should be administered is really important. A home nurse should also follow proper medication for the patient. The appropriate medicine should be given to a patient undergoing a certain sickness. And why a medicine should be given is another important factor. The home nurse should have enough knowledge on these questions. The home nurse shouldn't necessarily be witty but, anyone can as long as they have enough knowledge about home nursing. Bye!

Take Care. Care Bear :3

Health Care so, yeah. Health care is pretty much important to everyone; community, family as well as to an individual.

Every one should have a knowledge of what health care is all about. Lexically, health care is defined as the field concerned with the maintenance or restoration of the health of the body or mind. Personally, it is simply caring for one's health. 

 To the community, it is important for an individual to know the simple or basic stuff in health care for it is essential in case of emergencies or sudden.. *cant find the right word* yes! very true! =))) It will be helpful to the community in some instances. 

To the family, health care is important to be able to teach one's self of being independent in such cases but, never put on or drink or whatever you do to a medicine or ointment or something used to cure something unless you are sure and with a doctor's prescription or even a R.N. for many years. In short, expert. ☻ In our family, my mom is a nurse. Don't get the connection? Yuuh! Feel ko lang mag share. ;) HAHA 

 To an individual or to myself, I should know these stuff to be able to take care or nurse someone with illness. I should know basic stuff to be able to also help my family, the community and the patient in nursing the patient. =)) 

So, yeah. I think that's all. I'll edit this if something pops out in my head. Bye ♥

Riyus. Ridus. and Risaykel =))

In this activity, we were told to come up with at least two products which are made of recycled materials that are salable and affordable. So, here we go again.. Handicrafts and those stuff. I didn't listen much but, pretended. I really didn't expect to enjoy this activity. It was REAL fun ☻

So, I was part of the group 3 and we came up with three products. First stop...

This is a desk organizer or simply an organizer. It really has many uses. You can put your own design too. It can also serve as a decor in somewhere. I really had fun doing the design of this product particularly this..

It made me go crazy. Really@@ It was amazing =)) I found this stressful and stress-relieving at the same time. ☺I had to go straw hunting in our store :3 So, yea. We used boxes, newspaper, paint and straw. You really can find it anywhere but.. not anywhere literally but.. yea. Just.. whatever. MOVING ON. Welcome to the second stop..

If you can't decipher what this is, well, it is a pouch made of tetra packs of juices. You also need a zipper if you wish. You just need patience, bro. ☺NEXT YOOOW.. Third product is.. *drum roll*

 Presenting..

Looks good right? I know, right? :) HAHA Those two.. things? are lamps. And yeah. It is so damn cute. You could really use it as a decor or whatever pleases you. All you need is a jar or something like that, a candle to be put inside and whatever you like to decorate it with ☻

So, bye guys! ♥

ze tenchu card =))

The class was told to make a Christmas or Thank You Card. I decided to make a Thank You Card since I sucked at cutting forms of Christmas Trees. "Basic!", I thought to my self but when Ma'am Tuangco added "a POP-UP Christmas or thank you card", "Ano dawwwww?!", I now thought to myself as my eyes widened a bit.

 Well, I thought of many ideas and came up with this as my front page. Bear with the writing please =))

 Open it and you'll find the best I have at 4:50am on a Wednesday(I think).

Yea. Obviously, I forgot to tape some ends of the paper. That's the consequence of cramming while you're half asleep. And all you think about is how to finish everything and go back to your soft, comfortable bed.

When I already had to give the card to someone, I chose to give it to one of my close friends. I wanted to thank her for everything. I wanted to show her that I am really grateful for having her as my friend.

This is all for now, BYEE :*
