with all due respect to the people in q plaza..

it feels really bad that after spending my whole internship period in mercury q plaza,, everthing will be a mess..i thought, me and my partner thought that our internship was so perfect already,. did our best as we practiced our profession, did things which are not really related to our course like preparing things needed for their inventory, and got along really well with all the people in that branch. least that i expect that there's going to be a gap between me and ma'am lulu[manager] and ma'am girlie[assistant branch manager and registered pharmacist],, it all started after ma'am girlie gave us a grade of 71 in our evaluation grade for ust. 71 is failing,, i was the first one to receive my grade and so looking at my grade, i really wonder of what ma'am girlie's basis was for giving me such a very low grade..i didn't tell my mom right then cause i know she'll get mad.. i waited for my partner's grade and he texted me after a week that he also got 71..so i thought that i need to tell my mom about the situation.. my mom got mad after knowing.. a little consideration is all we asked for,, it will affect our grade in our subject internship and worst,, ust might ask us to repeat our internship because we got a failing grade.. mom called ma'am lulu and ma'am girlie to complain,, my dad called as well.. having a mercurian parents, it's the first time that they heard, in the history of mercury.. a pharmacist giving a failing grade in an apprentice. my partner also complained in the main office,, and the main office talked to ma'am girlie on why she gave such grade.. ma'am caamic [the training manager in main office] got really mad.. and so ma'am girlie has no choice but to change our grade..

~with all due respect ma'am lulu,, i do not possess a dual character... u don't know me so u have no right to judge me and tell my mom that i might be showing a different character whenever i am in your branch and when i am in front of my parents.. maybe yes,, i maybe quiet at home,, and happy go lucky in your branch for i really got along well with the PA' and pharmacists,you knew that. but beyond that, nothing is different. i respect myparents the way i respected all of you in the branch. if our complaint cost you some of your time form your busy life, i'm sorry.. all we are after for is to give just to our grade. i did my best so that you'll not regret that you accepted me in your branch,,though i knew i commited errors in my work, everyone has mistakes right? but i think it's not proper for you to tell my mom those things about me.. what you had said really hurt me,, and with all due respect to you ma'am lulu and to your branch, i will never go back in your branch if i need something even if your the only drugstore near our place that is open. may God bless you and your branch who i thought was my second home last vacation.~

p.s
before i knew what ma'am lulu told my mom, i went back to q palza to asked ma'am girlie to repeat my evaluation.. and it felt so bad that i was like a ghost inside the Rx,,no one's talking to me,, even ate vangie who happened to be one of the closest pharmacist to me.

silence is holy..

just finished reading two of Nicholas Sparks novel,, "A Walk to Remember" and "The Notebook".. i know,, it's like i was born yesterday for reading these novels just now.. i haven't watched the notebook yet? hay,, how could a movie addict like me miss watching this heartful movie? answer: i don't know either.. hehe,, anyways.. i was so touched by its story.. first love, great love, true love, unconditional love, infinite love.. name it and this story showed how is it to found a love, lost, and regain it once more.. and first love? haha,, reminds me of him.. hhhmmm...

"my daddy used to tell me that the first time you fell in love, it changes your life forever, and no matter how hard you try, the feelin never goes away.." -Gus
but most of all,, eto ung pinakapaborito kong line..
"silence is holy. it draws two pople together because only those who are comfortable with each other can sit without speaking.."
i was in level7 when i watched a walk to remember featuring mandy moore and shane west.. it was in camille's house.. jb21 was gathered inside their entertainment room and all of us watched,, except for the boys who did nothing but goof around.. i really didn't payed much attention to the movie,, my attnetion was on the food that we ate while watching,, haha.. so i really didn't feel the movie, and the story.. i didn't cried,, nor was touched by the movie,, hehe.. but after reading the bookk,, geezz,, i was teary eyed as i read the remaining chapters.. iba talga,, grabe.. it hit me hard..

ok enough of those.. change topic..

i was reading jelly's blog a while ago.. i told you jells,,sobrang tinamaan ako dun.. mainly because we were having the same situation..

up to now,i still spent my nights thinking of all the things that happened between us in the past.. sometimes, i can't help but cry.. darn, cry again.. everyone thinks i'm fine,, i thought i'm fine.. but whenever i'm alone,, i always feel the space that he left after everything that happened.. it was summer last year when we got closer,, much closer.. and i remember everything.. even the smallest details.. because those memories are all i have..
but then, i'm sitll hoping,, and praying.. that someday.. everything will be back to how they were before,, to how me and him.. were together as one.. i just hope.. i do hope..


P.S.
7 days to go before my internship will end,, yeah boy!!
