I’m slowly going crazy because of too much work. For some reason, July is looking to be a very busy month with several spillovers for August as well. Even my weekends are booked!
Well, some of those bookings are for personal reasons but booked nonetheless! My room is back in its typical look– in shambles.
Been out of commission since Sunday. Was busy attending to mahBebe in the hospital. Rushed him there Sunday night because his blood pressure was up - 170/110 from the time we got home from dinner with his classmates. It was the first day of the board exams and there was more to come the next day.
The doctor gave him medicines orally and none worked. His bp was steady at 170/110. He had to make the decision of whether he will let himself be admitted or still try to take the exams the next morning. As a last resort, the doctor said that she will try to inject him with a diuretic to try to see if the diastolic would go down. It only went back to normal after four oral medicines, an IV diuretic and 5 hours in the emergency room.
His bp remained normal while at the hospital but he had to undergo the battery of tests to see why the episode happened. All the results so far were normal so it was most likely the pressure and stress of the day. Although the doctor had to put him on maintenance medicine for hypertension already.
Our next problem is what to do with the exam that he was not able to complete. The doctor told him to try to get a special exam while Tita Lyn told him to try to get it struck from his record. We’ll see what’s going to happen next.
That’s the blog that I’ve stumbled on this weekend. I’ve been looking through the posts and I find them very informative and useful. Hooray for the people behind this project!
I was born in QC. I went to school in 3 different institutions in QC from Nursery to University. My work is in QC. I’ve always joked that I’ve never gone more than a 10km radius from where I live. I love this city though I’ve never been to every nook and cranny.
Visit the blog and explore this city. I’m proud to say, “Taga-Q.C. ako!”
Ok, I’m not perfect in my use of any language that I use in an attempt to communicate. However, it does give me the creepy-crawlies when I see signs boasting of “sweet shirts” or “vicycles”. Even signs in Filipino have these mistakes.
My good friend Josh Villanueva of the Cyberprince Chronicles is doing a tech segment for News on Q (QTV Channel 11, 9:30pm) every Monday. He’s also going to start a tech blog for GMANews.TV.
He’ll probably think that I’m just ridin’ the wave. But seriously, I’m so proud and happy for him. I know that getting these things have been a long and sometimes tortuous road.
This brings back memories. It’s something that I trained for in college but I only did this professionally once when a colleague with videography services asked me to voice a company AVP.
I remember the frustration of getting a particular tone and emotion right. Having to do the same lines over and over and over again takes it’s toll on one’s patience and good graces.
