February 2008

For the fast few weeks I have been very busy. I went to Batangas and Quezon with friends; I attended my high school Alma matter homecoming; I had my 22nd Birthday in our house and I went to Baguio last week end, Mayang and I went to Subic yesterday and Iyel (a high school friend) is inviting us to go to somewhere this week end.

I miss two consecutive Mondays of Biochemistry Class thank God that our exam yesterday was cancelled and moved today and luckily I got high score though I miss to review some topics that were discussed yesterday but I am so disappointed with my health economics exam, Maha (my classmate) was disappointed too, we missed to answer four items and that was our worst exam ever.

Actually the second semester is almost over, we’re done with two subjects and the exams will take place this Friday (in form of Symposium) and Tuesday next week. I am also looking forward to be exempted with my Biochemistry class (though I have a small chance now because I missed one exam).

2ND ROUND REPORT, dealing with my group mates

Hey I am still up! Its 1:30 in the morning here. I just finished my written report thanks to youtube because it enables me to summarize the 6 pages of single space 12 font size into one page. I guess youtube will also be very much helpful for my anatomy and physiology and perhaps in other nursing subject. It only means that multimedia is an alternative way on learning things. (It reminds me of a thesis wrote by a schoolmate regarding multimedia as medium of instruction for special children hahaha if it works for normal individuals why not with them hahaha)


Anyway, I emailed the entire report to my group mates with a note; I hope that the note will not be understood by them. This is actually our second round. During the first round we experienced a lot of troubles. One of my group mates didn’t review his part, the other didn’t bring the written report, and another was absent. I was not able to control my self to blame them on what the hell are they doing.

After that I heard bad feed backs from my classmates regarding the attitude that I showed towards my group mates during the first round. Then there were individuals who do not want the class to be regrouped for the second round because they are afraid to be my group mate. Honestly, I don’t mean anything to them I just want them to be responsible.

These are the notes that are enclosed to my email

  • Everyone must have a copy of written report. I will not assign a particular report to you. Read and study everything. (walang magrereklamo, if you get the hardest part that’s for your own good)
  • Someone must add the terms that I missed to include in the definition of terms. Used www.ask.com for uniformity. Follow the format and don’t change the margin.
  • Someone must create the presentation. Don’t put everything as much as possible only the key terms charts and figures.
  • Make a front/title page, just in case you don't know my real name is Lawrence William Y. Cruz.
  • If you have questions regarding the content of the report don’t ask me use the internet it could give you more information than me.
  • See the youtube links for the videos.
  • Promise me that we’ll get higher this time.

Busy schedule and missing drivers license/

Yesterday, I went to SM Pampanga to buy some stuffs I was about to go to the grocery when my Tita reminded me that my temporary SM advantage card was already expired. I went to Services Department and they requested for a valid ID for confirmation purposes so I took my drivers license from my wallet and I just placed it in my bag after. This afternoon my Tito asked me regarding the renewal of my license and I realized that I didn’t see it when I transferred my things to another bag so I checked my bags and wallet and now I do not know where is my license. If I don’t see it, it only means that I have to pay additional charges to the LTO (I doubt if I can rebate such amount from SM Advantage Card) plus I have to take jeepney and trike for three days! Because the only time that I can go to LTO is on Wednesday!

I have two reports next week perhaps on Tuesday but the written report must be submitted on Monday there is no other time for me to do it than now because I am going to Batangas. I have the choice not to go to and do this report but I don’t want to miss the trip. I was informed ahead of time and I confirmed it right away and besides the entire trip is for free.
