KUNG LAGI KA NA LANG MAGPAPATALO SA TAKOT, EDI WAG KA NA RIN LANG MANGARAP

Realtalk lang sa mga nagmemessage na gusto nila maging RMT pero natatakot sila. Wag niyo ako hanapan ng malambing na sagot kasi eto talaga sagot ko kahit kailan niyo ako tanungin. Pwede mo pakinggan, pwede ding hindi. Your call.

Kung lagi mong papairalin ung takot sa puso mo, hindi mo din maaabot ung mga pangarap mo. Kasi napaparalyze ka ng takot, wala ka ng focus sa mga pwede mo namang gawin para makapagprepare.

Kung idadahilan mo na natatakot ka madisappoint mga tao or masaktan sa possibleng pagbagsak ehh kailangan siguro marealize na…

Kasama sa buhay ng tao ang disappointment, minsan, hindi talaga maiiwasan un kahit pa sabihin nating pamilya o mahal sa buhay. Tao tayo eh. Hindi talaga tayo masasatisfy (unless you have Christ in your life and surrendered everything to Him).

Kung natatakot ka sa pagbagsak kasi masakit, eh kailangan mo talagang pagdaanan yun, para mas lumakas ka. Lahat ng pinagdadaanan natin may lessons.

Huwag mo lagi ikumpara ung nararanasan mo sa iba kasi may iba din naman silang pinagdadaanan. May ibang lessons na itinuturo sa kanila si Lord. Hindi magandang halintulad ka ng halintulad.

Kung hindi ka magtagumpay sa ngayon, hindi ibig sabihin hindi mo na magagawa sa susunod. Hindi rin ibig sabihin na wala kang alam o bobo ka. Pwedeng marami lang talagang nangyayari sa buhay mo at wala ka sa focus. Wag ka masyadong harsh sa sarili mo. May kailangan kang matutunan sa bawat ‘failures’ na nangyayari sayo. Kaya wag mo katakutan. Oo masakit, pwede ka pa malait ng ibang tao o kahit ng pamilya mo, pero at the end of the day, pag nakuha mo ung lesson, you’ll be stronger, you’ll be happier. And you have to realize YOU NEEDED THOSE SETBACKS to acquire everything you need to get to where you are meant to be.

KUNG LAGI KA NA LANG MAGPAPATALO SA TAKOT, EDI WAG KA NA LANG DIN MANGARAP.

Para wala kang madisappoint.

Para hindi ka masaktan.

Pero, sasaya ka ba?

May Panahon Ka Din

Ung mga kabatchmates namin sa medschool, graduate na sa residency training nila, at minsan pag nakikita ko mga posts nila, tinatry ko hanapin ung totoo kong nararamdaman… Naiinggit ba ako at nasasabi sa sarili ko na sanaol? Hahaha… Kasi di ba, kung tutuusin, dapat ako din tapos na kung ipinagpatuloy ko din sana… Di ko alam bakit ako naghahanap ng ganung pakiramdam, pero wala ehhh… Masaya ako para sa kanila, pero masaya din naman ako sa kung nasaan ako ngayon.

Siguro, talagang kailangan mo lang maging MASAYA sa ginagawa mo, at mahanap kahit papaano yung purpose mo sa mundo – yung kung saan ka talaga gusto ilagay ni Lord. Sa totoo lang, kahit hindi ako nakakapagpractice ng medical career ko sa ngayon, fulfilled pa din naman ako kasi nakakatulong pa din naman ako sa mga future healthcare professionals kahit kaunti.

Kaya, sana, tuwing maaalala mo na hindi ka na kasabay ng mga kasabayan mo, hindi ibig sabihin, wala ka ng kwenta at wala ng pag-asa. May kanya-kanya tayong kwento. May panahon ka din. Matutong maging totoong masaya para sa tagumpay ng iba, huwag magtanim ng inggit at sama ng loob sa mundo. Dadating din ang tamang oras para sayo at habang hinihintay natin yun, sana mahanap mo din ang tunay mong kaligayahan. 😘

The Last Christmas

At one point during our conversation, while we were celebrating my son’s birthday in a private resort, my father said something that I know I already know, but somehow, since that day, it kept on replaying at the back of my mind.


We rented this beautiful place where every corner you go to makes you feel relaxed. It’s like a sudden escape from the everyday hurly-burly of our lives. We were only allowed to stay there for 22 hours. My father said, “It’s good that we know we have limited time to enjoy this because we will appreciate each moment that passes. If we know we have unlimited time to spend here, I’m sure we’ll take this for granted.”


That was so spontaneous and was said at a perfect time that it left a profound impression in my mind. (I haven’t told my father about this yet and he will know once he reads this.)


I think if there’s anything that 2020 made clearer, it is that we all have a limited time on Earth. Life is too short not to appreciate that God allowed us to breathe normally still today. If you know when you would go, wouldn’t you also make the most out of your time left?


Maybe… Just maybe it’ll help you to process your emotions more appropriately whenever you think of the remaining days before the board exams. Instead of panicking, perhaps you can learn to take the countdown as a reminder that no matter what your circumstances are, you are still alive. Being here and having the opportunity to study/prepare for the exams is still a blessing, and that means you CAN always choose to do something today – no matter how little – to improve yourself.


The number of days you see is the number of days left that you do not have the RMT or ASCPi or MD title/s in your names…And in 2021, you are claiming these titles. 💪
No matter who says what, when the Lord decides, HE WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN. 🙌
Make today count.


P. S.

Let us declare that this is the last Christmas that you will celebrate without the RMT/ASCPi/MD title/s. The next Christmases won’t be the same. 😉 Padayon.

Kumusta Ka Na?

Hello everyone!

For months, I have been trying to figure out how we can properly address the mental stress this pandemic has caused us especially to those who were affected by the rescheduling of the board exam.

So, I invited one of the top psychiatrists in the country today to conduct a session which aims to help us cope with our situation.

I hope you all can attend because we want to reach as many board exam takers as possible. I’ll post details soon but for the meantime, if you can, please answer this feedback form to help us know the common problems we have.

I hope you’re all still doing well.
Or at least, trying to. 😘
