ROCK ENROLL 6


It feels a bit disconsolate
when it turns out that you're not yet finish with your academic clearance, the fact that classes in your school will resume in just two days. But, despite of this, I do not plan to excrete all my 'rants' about the dog-tiring registration process I have gone through. Maybe it's karma, a bad karma.

I'll admit that I've been a bad student during the first semester. In my own dictionary, bad is defined as " not preparing homeworks, not reviewing for exams and being terribly absent minded during class". I also have a not-so-good- record with the attendance particularly in Hum 1 (a 7:30 am class). You cannot blame me. It's not easy waking up early. But shucks, Professor [name withheld] is labeled 'notorious'. HEY! Don't quote me on that. It came from the higher years. I'm just quoting them.

But don't worry, I'm going to turn everything for the better. The behavior I've shown during the first semester is not on my plan this semester. From now on, I WILL MAKE IT RIGHT. Yeah! That's a promise. Of course, I'm tired of being a failure. LOL.

Well, anyway, I'm facing pretty gung-ho subjects. I've got NP2 (Cardiology), NP2 (Fluids and Electrolytes), NP2 (ABC/DN/ER), NP2 (Onco/CD), NP2 (Ortho-EENT), Asian Civilization with TN (Soc. Sci. 5), World Literature (Lit 2), Introduction to Research (RES 1) and Community Heath Development. I'm hoping to have good grades *fingers crossed* at the end of the semester.

That's all for now.

Have a Happy Second Semester, folks!

Good boy, No more!


Though I'm with my buddies last night, I am super bored to death. I don't know why. To kill the boredom, I grabbed five sticks of cigarettes from my buddy's Malboro Light packet. I lit one stick after another. And before I noticed it, it's all gone. Call me whatever you want, a chain smoker perhaps, I wouldn't mind.

When I was younger, there are times when I wonder why some people smoke. Are they doing that just to be hip and cool? Stupid morons. Some believe that smoking makes them astig but not to me. For me, the idea is just plain bulls***. An innocent-looking guy like me shouldn't be burning my lungs out for me to be "in".

But there's a saying that, as time goes by, people change and I'm not an exception. It came to me that it's not that bad if I will try to smoke some time, unless my mom and my dad will know it. I first puffed a cigarette in December 2007, I was 16 back then. My friends invited me to smoke and just to feed my curiousity, I joined them. I tried... ooohhhh... it feels like I'm in Cloud 9. Call it a pleasure, a guilty pleasure. At that moment, I got the idea why people choose to smoke though they know it's bad; it is because of the unexplainable sensation it brings. Believe me, there is.

However, it is very clear to me that there's an ugly truth that lies behind every cigarette pack: as what the government says, SMOKING IS DANGEROUS TO YOUR HEALTH. It is really is. As a nursing student, I know that smoking can lead to several lung and heart complications, the worst, an untimely demise.

If I could give a handful of reasons why to smoke, it is without a doubt that you can came up a thousand reasons not to. That's why I'm trying my best not to perceive that cigarette is my newest bestfriend. But, I can't promise to you and to myself that I won't do it again. Unless, the devil inside me won't crave for some puffin'.


Did you hate me after reading this post?
