If you will ask me 3 years ago where do I want to work or be an intern, I’ll confidently and will never think twice say “dito sa Pinas”. Of course that was 3 years ago. Three short years ago when I still don’t know what I want. Still don’t know my opportunities to work or be an intern somewhere else.
During the holidays, I talked to Nanay about my plans. And one of her statements struck me; she said “akala ko gusto mo dito magtrabaho at hindi ka aalis”. After explaining to her everything with matching tears (yeah, ako ng iyakin…) she understood now why I wanted to go there. She asked me things, like, will I ever be back here if ever? I said of course, I could train there then go back or save a lot first there then go back or have a vacation here if possible. I don’t know. Things can still change. I’ll know when I get there.
I’m currently inquiring in 3 hospitals. I’m excited and at the same time, very nervous. Who wouldn’t be? But if I’ll let this opportunity pass, I might regret one day why I didn’t even try. (Now I need your prayers for this one, sana maayos at matuloy)
Some of my friends question me why do I even want to try. That I’m more needed here. But I told them, my reasons and I hope they understood. I really hope they do.
Should I explain my reasons to all of you? I guess not. But one thing is certain; I’m doing this for myself. I’m doing this for my future... for a better future. And if that future includes you and that’s just tremendous at the same time exhilarating because it’s a dream come true.
Now, let's put these wings to test.

From the song "What You Are" by Jewel
"A star is a star
It doesn’t have to try to shine
Water will fall
A bird just knows how to fly"
Tama si kuya josh, do it for yourself and not for other reasons. Basta doc pag andito ka na dapat may free dinner kami. Yehey!
goodluck doc ced!! tama yan.. mas ok na maglayag hanggat bata.. para may panahon ka pang timbangin at balikan kung saan ka mas mararapat.. kailangan mo talagang tikman para malaman mo ang tunay na lasa.. at kung hindi mo susubukan.. madadagdagan na naman ang "what if" mo sa buhay.. God bless!
whatever it is that would make u happy and fulfilled...GO!
pero babalik ka ha.. :)
kung san ka man pupunta for sure mas madami ka magiging experience dun...
hmmmm.. hesitations are made before decisions... pwedeng maghesitate ka sa una.. pero pinagsisisihan ang mga bagay na hindi na-gawa... go lang!
In order to help others, you have to help yourself first. Totally understandable.
Best of wishes.

I share the same sentiments Doc. This July, I'll be taking the NLE. I'm quite scared 'cos this will define my future.
I'm also thinking of going abroad after I passed. Sobrang kunti kasi ng opportunities dito sa Pinas as of now. Kaya wala talagang choice.
Pero it doesn't mean that we're not nationalistic.
sabi ko dati di ako agad aalis. at eto nga, di nga ako umalis. kasi naka kontrata ako. lol.
kanya kanya lang naman yan. kesa naman mag stay ka dito tapos manghihinayang ka lang din.
Wow, that's an adventure! So you gotta run after it. I will pray and help you with it. Stay cool!
every Pinoy deserves a greener pasture... as long it is for good and everything will flow smoothly :) God bless
GO FOR IT DOC!

I wish you luck DOC. Getting out of our comfort zone is always a big challenge and believe me, its worth it til the end :)

Goodluck doc! Best wishes!
