Una at Huli


Ang mga ilaw na sumalubong at unang bumati sa pag-ahon mula sa sinapupunan ng ina

Luha, luha ng kaligayahan ng bawat taong humawak sa iyong lahi,
Siya ring babagsak at luluhod sa kadalamhatian

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.

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...

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"...
