Let's try to choose the nice feelings :)

A good friend told me that I was more mean the past 2 weeks. I can give reasons on why I was stressed out and well, being really difficult. I've been wanting to write, actually.  Since I have tried eating and sleeping to try to lift my mood, but failing miserably. And I know that the next step is to try and transform my negative thoughts into positive reflections. Unfortunately, no inspiration or drive until today, when I was reminded that it was all about choices. 
From the most simple decisions... 
- Choosing sleep (over anything really) 
- But choosing to wake up and work everyday
- Choosing to eat your first and probably last meal of the day before starting rounds.
- Choosing to not study (haha) 
- Choosing not to read spoilers on the latest GOT
- Choosing to act out because you didnt get what you want instead of not acting out 
... To life changing ones
- Choosing your battles (wisely; if i may add)
- Choosing how to act or not react on a situation. 
- Choosing the good all the time.
- Choosing love, kindness and peace.
- Choosing the positive and happy feelings
It's these everyday choices which define who we are and it's our values which direct our choices. Most of the time these decisions are never the easiest - because it's never just about what you want but also what's best for you and for others. (although being selfish can be acceptable sometimes)
*deep sigh*

 These choices eventually have outcomes - and whether it be good or bad, what matters is we be ready to face them for the choices we made. Life goes on no matter what - it's up to us  to try and choose the nice feelings always :)

The Preparation.

How do you put 100 days of preparation, 4 days of examination and 3 days of waiting in one blog entry? You can’t. Haha. So I’m making this a 3 part entry. That very long hiatus from writing and this heart full of emotions had led me craving to write my heart out. So indulge me. I don’t think I would be able to encapsulate all the emotions in that one of a kind journey which led me to where I am today. But I would still try because having that experience is something that I would love to look back to (definitely not do again) but something that I would like to read about when I feel like strolling down my memory lane. It started the day after the review center (Topnotch medical board prep) orientation where we were welcomed with a wake-up call, the board examination is about three months away - 106 days to be exact. Will it be enough? Probably. And then came the diagnostic exams where in there was really the doubt of whether it will be enough.  Parang hindi . But it was...

Life Thoughts - Life and Thoughts.

And just like that, we are married! The past few months have been heart-very-light-kind-of-nice. <3 It feels actually weird to have someone with you 24/7 at home (and not the hospital). And nope, I'm not complaining.  As usual, I've been wanting to write but not finding any inspiration until today.  I've been reflecting, more of day dreaming, while reviewing for the board exam and I just want to write down some, well, thoughts.  I grew up in an environment where there are things that should never be talked about, just because you don't want to make things worse. And it did not make things worse, but it did not make them better as well. I learned that words can make or break someone. And that if you do not have anything nice to say, it was better to shut up. And because if you say mean things, no matter how true, these may hurt people. However, this mindset did not shield me from getting hurt. This was also why I hated confrontations. Because I only thought that confr...
