Puting Bulaklak



Pinipilit kong alisin ang mukha mo
sa bawat pagsilip ng araw
sa aking mga mata

Pinipilit kong hindi banggitin
ang pangalan mong humahalimuyak
sa aking pag-iisip

Pinipilit kong pumasok na hindi hinihintay
kung kailan magsasalubong
ang ating mga paningin.

Pinipilit kong hindi kita kausapin
mag-asal aso at bigyan ka
ng halaga.

Hindi ko kaya.

Kung sana'y nagkakilala tayo
sa ibang panahon, at mundo

Kung sana'y malaya tayo

Kung magkikita lamang tayo sa ating mga panaginip

Kung maririnig mo lang na lagi kitang iniisip

Kung malalaman mo lang na ikaw ay natatangi.

Para mailabas na ang sumpak sa dibdib...

Ikaw ang puting bulaklak na aking sasambahin.

Ang isinisigaw ng damdamin.


Paano mawawala ang baliw na paghanga ko sa iyo?
Kailangan kong lumayo sa iyo.

A Lifetime's Worth of Education (from a Filipino Thomasian Medical Student)

...because even if you have attained the highest level or position in the medical field, you are always a student of medicine. I wrote this blog on March 10, 2006 in my yahoo 360 account as an attempt to blog about my medical life (which I failed to do). This was written days before I became a 4th year student, a medical clerk, or in the medical lingo, "the lowest life form in the hospital"... Ever since I entered medical school, my whole life turned up side down. It was like I’m adrift into the whirling pool of uncertainties. I counted every moment, every second, living it day by day. They said it would only take a short time to finish medicine, the hell with it (4 years of pre-med, 4 years of med proper, 1 year of internship, 3-5 years of residency and 1-2 years of fellowship). Partially it was true, toxicities make time fly in lightspeed. I am a 3rd year medical student at UST Faculty of Medicine and Surgery and an incoming clerk (duty starts at april 15). Whenever I remin...

Room

When  we were surrounded by chairs and whiteboards Books afloat and skulls on the table Light escaping from the other room Sunrays piercing thru the blinds You were looking at me the way you are looking at him Right now.

What is the difference between Tagalog and Filipino?

Tagalog used to be the National Language of the Philippines. Its existence can be traced back from the pre-Spanish Era. Tagalog is an olden language . Rajah Sulaiman was the Datu of the Tagalog Kingdom before it was forcefully taken by the Spaniards in the 15th century. The Tagalog people are the people who lived near the Ilog Pasig, hence, the term " Tagalog ", which is a contracted word of " taga-Ilog ". The Tagalog alphabet is also known as the " abakada " which is comprised of the following letters: A B K D E G H I L M N NG S T U W Y Pronounced as: A BA KA DA EH GA HA I LA MA NA NGA PA RA SA TA U WA YA The Congress changed the National Language to Filipino in order to unify our divided native tongues, because aside from the Tagalog Language, the Philippines also has other languages/dialects such as Cebuano, Ilonggo, Ilocano, Bicolano, Kapampangan etc. Although the Filipino Language is mostly based on Tagalog, it offers "direct adaptation"...
