The man behind your apple passed away yesterday after battling from pancreatic cancer. I am not into gadget nor do I have an apple item yet this man is already part of our history so he deserves to be remembered in our simple way. Social networking sites are full of news about his life and death. Everyone is talking about him especially the apple fanatic. Anyway, I know Steve Jobs is happy now that he is pain free and that he is already with our creator.

I'm back from blogging after a week. Well, the reason is that I gave birth to a healthy baby boy last September 9, 2011 via normal spontaneous delivery. I'm still recovering and gaining strength. I’m hoping to be really well in the next 2 weeks. I can say that giving birth is really hard. I now understand the feeling of all mothers with regard to giving birth because I have experienced it and gone through the pain. But everything is worthy upon seeing our baby.

Anyway, I really thank God that I’m safe and he is healthy. I thank him that my baby is okay after ingesting a small amount of his meconium. He also experienced transient tachypnea after birth. Laboratory tests and x-ray was done few hours after birth. We are glad that results were normal and he was then roomed in the next day. We stayed at the hospital for 2 days.

I would just like to thank the hospital staffs that were there during that time; though they would not be able to read this. I would like to say thank you to my ob, anesthesiologist and to all the nurses from different department. They did not charge professional fee since I am an employee there and so we just gave them something to remember. My husband is the one who chose the token and paid it as well. Lol!

The hot topic was the fist fight that happened between Coco Martin and Matteo Guidicelli during the Star Magic Ball at Manila Peninsula. Maja Salvador admitted that she was the reason of their fight. She also revealed that they have a relationship. I did not know Maja and Matteo have a relationship. I have not been updated.lol! I guess they have agreed not to make their relationship publicized. Anyway, is it jealousy that fuels the fight? Some sources say it is. The question is why? Why Matteo is being jealous of Coco Martin? I know in time the real reason will come out. Let’s just wait and see.

Phew! Time really fly so fast because now is already September. The start of "Ber" months and this means hearing a little Christmas song as well as seeing different Christmas lanterns. The first Christmas song I heard today on television is Jingle Bells. It was shown on the news that in some area they are already busy creating different kinds of Christmas lantern to be sold. I already receive a Christmas gift from our Lord and it is our baby Nathan. I am due next week. I’m so excited! Wow! Christmas is in the air.

I am going to Lucena City together with our hospital administrator and my Philhealth partner. We are going to attend the dialogue with regard to the new case rate of Philhealth. They are going to implement a fixed deduction rate of Philhealth benefits. I agree to this. There would be no underpayment on our part since the rate is already a package. I don't know yet the other scope of this. I will post about this after our dialogue.

We always see and hear on the news about the dengue outbreak in some areas here in our country. They said the case rate this year is lower compared to last year. Nevertheless it is still alarming. We got lots of patients and the hospital beds aren’t enough for our dengue patients in the affected areas. Dengue outbreak has been aggravated because of our whether. It’s the continuous rain for the past few months that creates breeding grounds for mosquito. The female mosquito Aedes that carries dengue virus is responsible for this. With this we should really take care of ourselves and clean our surroundings to prevent from getting sick. Remember health is wealth.

Two more weeks to go and I'll be on maternity leave. Two months without the office work and two months of taking care of our coming baby. I’m so excited to see him yet nervous. I am going to deliver at the hospital where I work. I have no choice. I am working at the hospital so I need to deliver there. In addition to that, financially it is of great help because of the discount. Anyway, I trust that God will take care of us especially during the day he will come to see the world. I am praying for a normal spontaneous delivery. It’s less expensive with fastest recovery. In the span of two months there would be no salary yet the Social Security System will pay me which is nice lol!

Sometimes we just have to listen and obey them because they are the authority. They are in the position to implement whatever they want even though it is not inline with the labor code. I think one way or another an employer should show true concern to their employee. They should take time to appreciate their works. They should somehow hear their concern and take an immediate action into it.They should meet halfway to create a harmonious relationship. When things aren’t going your way and you can’t it take anymore then it’s time to leave than be miserable. There are other things to do than suffer. Everyday is a new life to a wise person.

Every now and then my tooth aches. And it hurts today. But I have still managed to do the things I must do though it’s quite upsetting. Good thing it is mild unlike what I have experienced before. Though the pain is mild still it is disturbing. I can't take medicine because I'm pregnant but I know there is a medicine that is safe for pregnant still I will not take it. I am trying my best to ignore the pain and most of the time it works. I chew the food on the unaffected side so as not to aggravate the pain. I hope tomorrow when I wake up it will be gone.

I prayed for the rain to stop because at dawn we are going to accompany my sister to the airport. She’s leaving for Taiwan. God did answer my prayer. It did not rain on our way to the airport. We arrived there safe and sound. We’re very early. It is not obvious that we are excited. Lol! Anyway, I admired her for having the courage to work abroad. She did not mind though it would be her first time. We have seen that she’s very determined to go for it. So we just supported her. We are praying for her success at the foreign country. We pray for her safety as well as for her good health. May God always guide and protect her there.

We log in most of the time to our Facebook account as much as we do with our email account. We visit our account for updates and notifications. What’s in and what’s out. Facebook has been our medium of communication with our loved ones. It has also become our little journal because of posting whatever emotions we have. It unleashes our feelings. In return we gain something through the comments and likes of our status.

Like all other things Facebook has its advantage and disadvantage. Our instrument here is our words. We know how powerful our words are right? It can make or break a person. It is very common nowadays that you talk about someone you dislike in facebook by assigning them a pen name and by using other language. You talk nonstop about them since you think they wouldn’t know anything about it. But luck is on the side of that person you were talking about. That person was able to gain access to your conversations. Hence, the war begins. Is Facebook the culprit?

I heard this on the news awhile ago. This happened during the time of former President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo. The fund from PCSO that is supposedly for the needy went to the expensive car of a Bishop. Can you believe that? Why they let this to happen. He is not supposed to have an expensive car worth 1.7 million. He should be frugal. He can visit areas in his place without an expensive car. That amount would be a great help for patients who does not have the money to pay for their health expenses. He did not think first the needs of the people in his parish.

The hot topic today is the shocking revelation of Andi Eigenmann's pregnancy. Her fans didn't expect this to happen so soon. Her career is just blossoming. Anyway, things happen for a reason. Babies are blessing from above. It is just that she's still young at 21 and not yet married. They are not yet revealing the identity of the father. There are speculations yet only Andi Eigenmann can give us the truth. Let's just pray for her and the baby. I know with the help of your family you can surpass this.

I am not fond of wearing watch ever since but then it change when I enrolled at the college of nursing. It is compulsory to wear a watch. We are given points for having a watch. It is really a must for us nursing students. Aside from thermometer and bp apparatus we need watch for reading temperature, taking pulse rate and respiratory rate. So I have been accustomed of wearing watch.

There are some who are really fond of wearing watch. It is included in their fashion. They have a variety of original as well as cheap replica watches. It ranges from expensive and inexpensive watch collections. Replica watches are available online. You can find great selection especially at Top Gun Replica Watches. They offer only the best replica watches.

There are just some people who don’t act professionally. We have encountered these kinds of people for the past few days. Their manner seems to be out of nowhere. I do understand their situation. Hospitalization as well as hospital bill that needs to be settled can really change our behavior or our outlook for the day. But still we should behave in a manner that is acceptable. Money is really hard to earn. Not all of us have enough savings to pay for our hospitalization.

It is common nowadays that most of us are struggling financially. Who doesn’t right? The economy today is still not that good. Ordinary people can’t immediately buy gold IRA nor pay for other expenses such as the hospital bill. With our present situation every one desires to have gold bullion that could help us. Bullion is a great help in our not so good economy. If only I have the money to buy gold bullion. It is a good investment. The value of it doesn’t instantaneously depreciate. We can keep it until such time that its value skyrocket. So if you have the means then I would suggest you buy bullion.

I’m counting the days until my delivery as well as the days when I will finally file a resignation. I am not happy anymore in my work place. The environment is not healthy anymore; gossips here, there and everywhere. I don’t like that. I just want to work and do the best I can to produce a work with good quality. I guess things like this do happen in most companies. It’s inevitable. It’s just that I am not prepared nor have been prepared for it. This is my first job anyway. I really want to move out and start anew. This time I will be wiser. I will not be affected with the negative things that are happening around me. I will just do my work and improve it. Goodness! Two months is still long. I am now determined to find another job. Sail away from my comfort zone.

My husband first Father's day celebration because he is a first time daddy. We woke up early and washed our piles of laundry. We weren’t able to do it the other day because we attended my office mate wedding. After the laundry thing we went to the mall early to attend the Sunday mass as well as to deposit at BDO. Then head over to Festival Mall in Alabang, Muntinlupa to celebrate Father’s day. First stop is at Tom’s World wherein we did not win our target stuff toys. Maybe it is not yet our lucky day. There’s no more tokens left so we decided to eat lunch at Racks. Indeed a luscious lunch with the first time daddy.

We stroll, canvass for the next thing to have and look for slippers to buy. Then we bought snacks for mommy at Wendy’s and also got frosty for ourselves. We drove back home and drop by at Puregold to buy my milk, flowers for daddy, and some household needs.

There is an amusement area and he was enticed to buy tokens. We bought 4 tokens. Again we tried our luck to get some stuff toys. Luckily honey won and I did not get anything. Too bad! By the way, he got a cute sponge bob. Indeed his lucky day.

After that we visited the tomb of my father-in-law to greet him a Happy Father’s Day. We didn’t fail to visit his grave especially during special occasions. He will always be remembered. I can say that he has been a great father. Anyway, Happy Father’s day also to my father. I just sent him a message since he is miles away from me.

I'm a little bit stressed about the issues we are currently dealing at the office. I shouldn't be because I'm carrying a baby but its unavoidable. It affects me. I just don't like working in an unhealthy environment where it used to be healthy. I don't know how long will the issue last. I am just really hoping that things will be better soon. As much as I want to be totally out at that company. I just can't because I will still give birth there on the first week of September. I can't also file a leave earlier than what I want because there are still some things to be ironed out. I want everything to be okay before finally taking a leave. I don't know how will I incorporate the think positive thing because everything that's going on there is negative.

All things being equal (money, space, etc), would you rather own copies of the books you read? Or borrow them?

I would definitely want to own the books I read. Books are great collection that you could pass on generation. It is worth the money because of the knowledge and lessons you have learned thru reading.

Scrubs are popular among hospital staffs. Some hospitals already replace the conventional white nursing uniform into their preferred colored nurse scrubs while others stick to the color white nursing scrubs. In our hospital, nurses and ancillary staffs wear scrubs. They have two sets of scrubs using two colors. One is their preferred color and the other one is the owner’s choice which is beige. Hospital scrubs color varies in every department during Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday. Monday, Wednesday and Saturday they wear their beige scrubs.

I appreciate their scrubs now compared to the previous one. The textile on the previous scrubs is not proper. It did not give them comfort. It doesn’t look like a scrub. The appropriate should be soft cotton scrubs in order to be satisfied. Good thing the owner decided to change the entire hospital uniforms. Luckily they found the one who make and sell wholesale hospital scrub. By the way, individuals who are looking for white nursing scrub top, white medical lab coat, uniques scrubs and ua uniform you can visit http://www.blueskyscrubs.com for your needs and satisfaction. They are the best.

My first time here. I found it while searching for Thursday blog meme and then decided to join. Here is the question.

Do you read book reviews? Whose do you trust? Do they affect your reading habits? Your buying habits?

I usually don't read book reviews. I trust my own judgment because what they like might not be congruent to what I like. My reading and buying habits is not affected by what they say. I will buy base on my own understanding of the book description.

I did not go to work since it is my birthday. We have a birthday leave. Thanks for this privilege. I had my me time. Anyway, I woke up early and waited for my husband to arrive from work. Oh my baby was so active early in the morning. The kicking and moving awakens me. Maybe because he/she knows that it's my birthday. Lol!

When my husband's arrived we ate spaghetti and chicken together that my mother in law cooked. Yehey! After two days we are able to eat breakfast together. Our work schedule is not the same so we can't be together for breakfast. We can't go out for my birthday just like before because of his work schedule. So we just went out to buy cake, chicken and barbecue. He already gave me a gift as well as my mother in law. I'm already contented with this. Thank you so much daddy honey and mommy.

I was overwhelmed with the birthday greetings that I received via facebook and text messages. Thank you so much guys. Thank you so much mama and papa. God bless you all! I’m very much thankful to our Almighty God for another year of my life to be with my family, friends and relatives. I'm here on earth for 25 years already and looking forward for more years to celebrate life. I am very much grateful for all the blessings that God always shower into my life. I'm very much blessed to have my husband and our coming baby. I am wishing for bright future ahead, safe delivery of our baby on September, happy married life, advancement in work/career, good health for all of us and more success.
