This is a CT of Katie Bryce. 15 year old female severed aneurysm. It was the first surgery we ever scrubbed in together on right? Our first save. Right here is a treatable cysts, tough save but we did it. I kissed you in the stairwell after the surgery. And this right here is where Dr. Bailey kicked you out of the surgery because she caught us in your driveway in my car. And right here this was a seven-hour craniotomy and you held the clamp the entire time, never flinched. That’s when I knew you were going to be an incredible surgeon. Beth made our clinical trial a success by surviving. You talked me into putting her under. That’s when I knew I needed you. And this is today. The post op head CT shows Izzie Stevens. See that, right there, tumor free. Because of you. You got me into the OR. If there’s a crisis you don’t freeze. You move forward. You get the rest of us to move forward. Because you’ve seen worse. You’ve survived worse. And you know, we’ll survive too. You say you’re dark and twisty. It’s not a flaw. It’s a strength. It makes you, who you are. I’m not going to get down on one knee. I’m not going to ask a question. I love you Meredith Grey. And I want to spend the rest of my life, with you.

Addison: Maybe what I should do is go out on a date with the vet. OH but wait, that won’t work either because I’m not Meredith Grey! Because that seems to be something that sends you out into a blind rage!

Depression.

Wed, 20 Jul 2011 17:12:00 +0800

Some people say that depression feels like a black curtain of despair coming down over their lives. Many believe that they are dull and does not deserve anything. Others feel irritable all the time for no apparent reason.

Well, I guess this is what I’m feeling right now. I don’t know why but something is lacking in my life. Something I can’t define and it makes me hollow and empty inside. The feeling that I think my life is so boring and somethings just off. Worst thing is, it sinks in at any given time of the day. Sure, I have really cool and good friends and I have a very loving boyfriend but i still feel incomplete somehow. It makes me want to breakdown but I just can’t. I’m so used to being the “comforter” instead of being the “comforted” that I forget how to act when I’m sad. Sometimes I just want to cry for no apparent reason. It confuses the hell out of me. I mean, people don’t cry for no reasons right? :(

My hearts too heavy right now and I don’t think anyone can understand what I’m currently feeling. I mean, I don’t even understand it to begin with so how can other people do? It’s like finding something but not knowing what it is. I just know that as of this moment, underneath my happy nature, i feel so sad inside. :(

Sorry for the drama but I guess I’m entitled to have one. *sighs*

“Do you want me to tell you something really subversive? Love is everything it’s cracked up to be. That’s why people are so cynical about it. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. And the trouble is, if you don’t risk anything, you risk even more.”

““I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.””

“Life isn’t happily ever after and golden sunsets and shit like that. It’s work. The person you love is rarely worthy of how big your love is. Because no one is worthy of that and maybe no one deserves the burden of it, either. You’ll be let down. You’ll be disappointed and have your trust broken and have a lot of real sucky days. You lose more than you win. You hate the person you love as much as you love him. But, shit, you roll up your sleeves and work - at everything -because that’s what growing older is.””

Wed, 06 Jul 2011 22:05:53 +0800

“You don’t just love me on my good days. On my pretty days, when I have makeup on and my hair looks decent. When I’m cheerful and witty and affectionate and feeling well. You love me when no one else possibly could. You love me when I’m pale and hollow, when I haven’t laughed for days and I’ve worn the same pajamas for a week. When I curl up in my little corner of the bed and try not to think about life. When I’m irritable and ugly and bitchy and I yell at you for stupid things. When my hair is greasy and I have bags under my eyes. Those are the times when with great patience and care, you brush my hair behind my ear, kiss my forehead, and tell me,’You’re beautiful and I love you.’ That’s how I know … that’s love.”

It’s been so long since I’ve checked my tumblr account. I only came back because my office mates are beginning to use tumblr again. lol I had to retrieve my account coz i forgot my effing password already T_T

Here goes short update of whats going on with my life…

Anyway, I’m 23 now. I’m working in a call center here in Cebu. The pay is good and the people are fun. I never expected to work in a call center but hey the pay is great and the benefits are generous so.. why not right?

After I finished the board exam all of my perspectives in life changed. I have to find a living that could satisfy my whims and can help my family. Then I realized working in a hospital here in the Philippines won’t let me do that. You only get to be paid after your 1 year probation and you still need to start as a volunteer, but thats not the the bad thing, the bad thing is, you not only get to work overtime but you have to pay for the damn experience… pretty unfair huh?! Those damn hospitals should be sued.

So anyway, I landed working in a call center. I thank God coz he gave me the job the same day I arrived here in Cebu. Now I’m a regular employee and enjoying my team. They are the best, most craziest people I know on the floor. I wouldn’t have stayed long without them. We have musicians, models, clowns, geeky and nerdy people.. Well I really don’t know where I fall. haha And most of all, we have the BEST Team Leader on the floor. We name our Team - XOXO - we are the most huggable and kissable bears. HAHA

These are the team I work with:

The Solvents… I think their name now is Cosmic Chasers.

(From Left to Right: Mark, Chuck, John and PK)

In Moalboal.

So anyway, those are some of the pics of Team XOXO.

All in all, my life is going well. There are boring times but it will always pass. In the end you’ll work because you’re having fun. I guess thats what every working people should attain.

LOVE YOUR WORK. That’s the biggest realization I had as of today. Thats the reason why I could get up every morning and achieve higher stats. :)

I’ll leave this post as is. Will be coming back soon though. I think I’m gonna post random pics from our outings and such.

Tah Tah!
