Mystery behind numbness


As my mother once told me having general anesthesia is like dreaming. Your eyes where all wide open you can see but not feel it’s like you’re in heaven while murmuring and talking nonsense with all the white  things you see and like your meeting someone there. Shadows are approaching like you’re in judgment until everything was blank-out.  But as I became a student in anesthesiology I realize it was all part of the process, the stages including the moment where you have analgesia you can still talk at this moment but can’t sense anything, the feeling of excitement where blood and respiratory rate where increase and having the dilation in the pupils after this stage the next will be skeletal muscles tend to relax and initially loss of light towards deep sleep. I experience also the same event but it was only localized only up to feeling no pain and numbness in some part of my oral cavity by I think it is the same process with different extent of effect.
        The quality or state of being aware of an external object or something within oneself or simply not feeling any stimuli to react with is defined as consciousness. It is one of the outcome of Anesthesia a tonic that is induced producing reversible state of amnesia, analgesia, loss of responsiveness, loss of skeletal muscle reflexes or decreased stress response, or all simultaneously. Currently, anesthesiology offers advancement as well as enhancement of the drug that is being utilized by the doctor in a specific treatment which affect mainly the nervous system which is essential in transmitting all the reaction the body must need to experience or react with. In recent researches in brain functions which is a part of CNS it is been discover that ECG(electroencephalogram) helps monitor the brain activity of a patient when he is in state of anesthesia feeling all the stages before having the sedation until the effect will disappear(from deep sleep to consciousness). It is significant especially in person with disease like epilepsy and schizophrenia and Parkinson’s disease the researcher use the word altered state of arousal including sleep, coma, hypnosis, and anesthesia rather than loss of consciousness since Brown consider that it is more about the brain purpose that promote this occurrence of the nervous system towards the body. He also makes emphasis that studying the activity of brain under anesthetic drug can help the vegetative person and comatose person help bring them out by understanding the cognitive function of the brain as well as how a person develops his/her mental process and how he/she begins to learn to talk, to listen, to reason and to solve a problem. Also some anesthetic drug like Ketamine help in treating psychiatric illness of a patient since it has a depression effect towards the brain function. It is really Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious how anesthesia works and how it elevates the quality of life of each and every one of us going on a mild or higher degree of operation each day in every week in a month or in a year that bring us to unveiling the hidden shade of how magnificent anesthesia is.

Just remember everything that is too much is not good.

A year of not seeing you.

 As it lingers in my mind, I didn't know a year later finally approached. The last time I saw you, I hugged you,  And I kissed you. How I wish I had done that for a much longer time but it last longed only for a minute if only i can make you smile more i must be more happy sending you to Him but you didn't give any further noticed the last time we talked  you are so happy and we're laughing and it really hit me when i woke up and dad was calling and said you bid your farewell already. I miss your texts, your smile and the way you make things clearer for me.. I guess i really miss you so much that once any person talk something about you especially when it's a bad thing it really bothers me and my nerves since they don't know you well to talk that nonsense so forgave me lola cause i will give a damn fight for you since you race my mom and her siblings  well to be a professional and act like one and you gave us your grandchildren lots of wisdom and love..I LOVE YOU ALWAYS EVEN IF I'M NOT THAT GOOD IN SHOWING IT OFF..

So, I write a poem as I remember how great you are :

Luck is a thing I think I possess
Maybe I’m not rich but studying for success
Since I want to prove to the world   I can do all of these
You never stop giving the care and knowledge to a granddaughter
Now, she’s making a million thanks to the grandmother who loves her worst and best.


When I look down on my self
You keep saying you’re capable and worthy
During decision-making you never leave me alone and feel empty
You used to walk hundred meters to our home just to say Hi
You woke me up and say the sun is up in the sky.

You had kept us safe when mama and papa are gone for work.
You limit all the habits that are bad for us.
Health was your reason for reading newspaper
Saying that I must lose weight to find someone but I only insist of doing it later
I knew I screwed most of the time still you accept me as a family and whisper "I’m doing just fine".



And now that I am an adult
I promise not to insult
As they can show me they are better as what I see
Because I look forward to that day that I can thank you and finally say:
“you are one of the reason why I am standing here”

Kiamba, My beautiful hometown

You may recognize this place because of The Famous people champ Manny Pacquiao, the congressman of our province, but there is more than that, especially in our town Kiamba which is also the town of the peoples champ wife Jinkee Pacquiao. The beautiful sand that glimmers in the shoreline will invite you to take a dip in the Celebes Sea. Also you can experience lots of thing if you visit like climbing the mountains and take a look of the falls in almost every barangay of kiamba.
Sarangani Bay


Majority speak Cebuano although early settlers were of Ilocano origin. One of the indigenous peoples living in mountainous areas of Kiamba is known as T'boli.

Hundreds of couples walking the streets every Valentine's Day. A festive mood breathes over Kiamba every year during the heart's day where one could find kiosks, carnival, tribal shows and a myriad of exciting activities in their short, narrow old roads.
Highschool Band performing during the fiesta

But they are not only celebrating Valentine's Day. It is the town's foundation anniversary and the Timpuyog festival they are most excited about.
Timpuyog is an Ilocano word for unity, a term very appropriate in a town whose populace is a mixture of Ilocanos, Cebuanos, Maguindanaos, B'laans and T'bolis.
During the festival, guests could witness tribal shows as T'boli families make their way to the town proper from far-flung barangays.
It is also during this day when the locals show their unity for the peace and development of their town.
Established in 1947 as a municipality, Kiamba is an idyllic town whose sleepiness will remind you of scenes from Tagalog romantic movies. But its relaxed atmosphere is complemented by its exciting landscape and friendly townsfolk.
Visitors have a wide array of adventures to choose from in this town bordered by the Celebes Sea and lush rainforests. Take a peek:
·         A short trek from the highway will lead you to majestic waterfalls where the water is so clear it may just quench your thirst.
·         A quick walk along its famed short, narrow roads littered with Japanese era houses will lead tourists to a wonderful view of the Celebes sunset.
·         If you are lucky, you may catch a glimpse of the people's champ Manny Pacquaio whose wife grew up in Kiamba. Pacquiao frequents Kiamba to visit friends and relatives and watch cockfights.
·         Taking an early morning stroll in Kiamba will lead to some pleasant surprises. One could catch a glimpse of the famed Kiamba sunrise where colors of the spectrum explodes in the sky to usher a brand new day as fishermen leave for their boats.
·         A short boat ride will take you to Tuka Marine Park, a protected area where fishing is banned.It has four protected coves and only one (Tuka 2) is open to the public. The site has awesome coral formations and you will be literally swimming with schools of fish once you decide to snorkel.
·         When you hit the beach of Kiamba, you will enjoy the pleasure of having it all to yourself and your friends because it does not have bothersome vendors and hawkers.

      Finding exciting adventure is fun especially when you know its really worth traveling for. So what are you waiting for come travel to our Place!!!

that music which makes you feel the butterflies flutters in your belly.




Someday somehow somewhere
yeah! its funny how people define love, express love, fight for love and make those cozy love letters but the thing that bothers or should I say wonders me most about love is that will I find that love which is fated for me or so called the other half of me, If he does exist? Or am I just dreaming that someday I’ll feel that “lubb dubb” thingy they all mumble about.
Well, let me start it this way!  I’m not dumb, numb, or foolish that I hadn’t feel attracted and infatuated to the opposite sex, yes! I did felt it, sometimes but the thing is it the faster you get it the easily it fly and disappear in tiny air. But her I am, waiting for the grand entrance of that special someone that will soon invade my heart and hope that we will be together taking over the universe. The thought of it makes me gag or throw up but as what I have seen in the telenovelas, movies and read in the novel is not that bad it’s like my heart is overwhelm with the plot of story that I can’t help but cry, laugh, chuckles, be angry, smile or even shudder as I remember it. They all confuse me is there such things in life? Can I have the same plot of one of those novels? Falling for the wrong guy who happens to be raggedly handsome and stubborn, or have a chance to touch an ice-cold prince heart, falling for a pauper who happens to a bachelor or diplomat, or have a marriage for convenience or just me meeting a total stranger in a trip. It makes my heart skip a beat  just as I think of it  they seems to give all they have  to the state that even  if the one they love suffocate them they can still bear it with a smile as long as they are together.  It scares me since as I read and watched them almost hundreds of them I think they all according to order. I want it to be twisted not in the sense that I am the mistress, so not going to happen but something just a simple not so predictable love story that as I gamble it would become a new adventure full of excitement, experience and fun. May be I am mad and crazy,but I'm still hoping to that little weirdness i have will have a compatible weirdness so that i may found a person and utter the word WE'RE IN LOVE.

Insomnia is the same as sleepless night


Do you struggle for hours to get to sleep, no matter how tired you are? Or do you wake up in the middle of the night and lie awake for hours, anxiously watching the clock? If so, you’re in good company. Insomnia is a very common sleep problem. It’s frustrating to toss and turn during the night, only to wake up bleary-eyed at the sound of the alarm and drag through the day exhausted.

 Sleepless night is the equivalent reason of this. I also encounter this problem every now and then so guys watch of this because it very annoying you have to get enough sleep but you can not do this since your senses is still alive...
 The best result, I mean damage it made afterwards were EYEBAGS and stressful face which is very bad not only in the appearance but also for the health of a person.

GEORGE CARLIN!!!

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but
shorter tempers, wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy less.

We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.

We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbour.

We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things. We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice.

We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes.

These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.

It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete.

Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever. Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only pleasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again. Give time to love, give time to speak, and give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

George Carlin
