A finished dilemma

Yesterday, I was troubled with the Corbel font style because it is necessary to use that font for the personal nursing theory that will be submitted on Monday. I had searched every website that had Corbel font in it but it requires us to pay for the rights of the font worth $35 dollars.

Today, I tried my luck and I visited this website that offers us to download the 2007 version of Microsoft office and in it is the latest font that can be seen also in Windows Vista. I give it a try and downloaded the 27.4 MB file and extracted it and voila! It is really true that it has Corbel in it. I had achieved in completing the required format for the nursing theory to be submitted on Monday.

I thought that I have to go to an alternative that I will send my work to an email address of a friend who has a corbel font and she will have to print it too which is  kind of embarrassing . 

I am not really a fan of the new fonts but it is sure good to look at.

A one day achievement

I started a day positively with me opening my youtube account and uploaded my new video. By 1pm, I started making our written output for Myra Levine’s theory of conservation and finished it by 2:30pm. I started working on my personal nursing theory by 3:10pm and finished by 5:00pm. It is not an easy job doing 2 assignments within 1 pm to 5pm period which requires me to use my critical thinking.

I am also happy that I had received SMS messages of support to my SPECIAL someone.

Perfection imperfection

I cannot make things perfect but I can do the best of my ability. I had studied for 2 hours in our microbiology quizzes and I am not surprised to have a high score in my quizzes. I love how I answered the test honestly and without regrets to items I failed to answer correctly. I believe that I can make these summer classes an enjoyment.

An ordinary but brightful day

It is our microbiology class and we had our first quiz in the morning. It has been a long day but quite satisfying since I strongly believe that I get high score in today’s quiz.

A stressful but rewarding situation

We had a very occupied lesson which requires us to understand and memorize terms for our quiz at the end of the subject. I quickly memorized terms but my energy is consumed and head ache is felt. The quiz started at 4:50pm and I answered most questions surely. I am rewarded with a score of 13 points over 15. After the results was given, we were dismissed but as I arrive in our house I am sweating profusely. I believe that the sudden diaphoresis is the effect of lack of vitamin B12 in the body due of its excessive use.

I am a bit sad that I sweat profusely but at least I realized that every action has a consequence that may be good or bad.

Be Cool and let it happen

The past weeks I had been depressed but I realize there’s nothing to be depressed about. Mind over matter and I believe that I can be very happy in simple ways which I find difficult in the past weeks.

A Positiive outlook in life

It has been a long time since my last post in my blog, I was so depressed within the past few days. My special someone helped me to overcome my depression and I decided to move on. I am now very calm, confident and focused on my goal and that is "a life of success and love in a foreign land."

A life of depression is the same as death and I won’t be a walking dead for my loved ones. I live for their happiness and mine too.

Iterax sleeping pill

I failed to sleep for almost 60 hours and I am very fatigued and emotionally depressed. By 10:00pm I arrived at Makati Medical Center and the doctor prescribed me Iterax, a drug used to treat allergic reactions and has a calming effect that will put users into deep sleep. When I returned home, I take that medicine and after 30 minutes I felt very dizzy and sleepy. I slept successfullt at around 12:00 midnight and woke up at 9:45 am the next day. I still have mild side effects including drowsiness and weakness.

I hope I won’t be dependent with this drug.

Hyperthyroidism

I do not know if this sickness is true about me. I had been suffering almost all the symptoms of hyperthyroidism as well like; excessive sweating, easy to be tired, shaking of the hands, losing weight even though I have been eating normally and frequent bowel movement. I am not scared that this will occur but it disturbs me about it’s causes like Grave’s disease which is obviously seen on patients with goiter and exophthalmos. If I have an extra time on April 8, I will be going to Makati Medical Center and check my blood test if I have high T3 and T4 count on my blood. It is an indicator that I do have hyperthyroidism to immediate block the outcome of Grave’s disease and easily cure it as well.

Have a nice day!
