Take on new experiences and implement a “no regrets” policy. Make a checklist and enjoy the process my dear mighty eagle.
The world is a big place and I chose Medical Colleges of Northern Philippines because I believe it would prepare me for life in the real world.
As a student, I wanna make my life memmorable during my college years. Before I enter my school I have so many checklist that are away from expectations of others. Meaning a challenging one and I don’t regret any because I made a right choice choosing MCNP to my dream course. Here are some of my checklist:
1. Choose to be different.
Before I decided to enroll to my dream college, I expected that my school is different. It has too many stairs. At first it was hard, tiredable and so exhausted but I survive. The stairs are my challenges and everyday it reminds me on every step I take the Lord will always be with me until success.
2. Get to know your Professors
Some professors are very interesting people. Most of them are toxic but they are not your typical teachers who are there just to teach. They show care to every student and give fair treatment for all. They help you grow untill you find success.
3.Get to know persons who is completely opposite to you
College is a great place to get to know people. I am an introvert person back then and decided to be friends with this crazy people. I learn new things from them and shares a lot in common and one dream. To be a registered nurse in the future.
4. Participate on School Activities
Even if I am not into sports, dance and drama, it’s fun to get together with other students and cheer on your school. There are so many benefits which includes self confidence, self discipline, free yourself to stage fright, make new friends etc.
5. Learn from your Experience
Feeling nervous and somehow you like to pee in your pants because of too much pressure? We always feel that way whenever we had return demonstration. The freshmens thought wearing a scrub suit with OB bag is a big privelege to a student nurse well it is true but with a big responsibility.
6. Entrepreneur Nurse
I tried to do pastillas business and my income become higher than I expected. I come up with this business because I know most medical students like me needs sweets specially when reviewing for upcoming exams and most reasons why they eat sweets is because it is their way to cope to stress.
7. Fall inlove?
Instead of falling inlove, I found myself lying on the floor fall from the stairs. It is not that painful and I can tolerate it somehow and straight myself to clinic. The actions went so fast and they also ran some xray test for my finger afraid that it could be a fracture. The result shows dislocation on my finger and I felt relief knowing I can still write. Well I had to wear the cast in my fingger or a week. I am forever be thankful to my angels who immediately take action. I am so much inspired to them and promise to myself in the near future I will dedicate myself as a nurse to help people at all times.
9. Face Real Life Challenges
At first I have so much difficulties living independently away from my parents. I have to save money and stick to weekly allowance, manage my time wisely as possible, deal with the annoying landlord etc…But MCNP helps me to motivate more and recommend tips to survive college life.
To Conclude
Remember college life is about new experiences and learning important lessons in life. But it is also important to develop the ‘no regrets’ attitude when something didn’t work out. Good or bad every experience teaches you something important that comes in very handy during later life. Make the best of your college experience. Make friends and create memories that you’ll cherish for a lifetime.
As a student, a mighty eagle, having to take the stairs means a lot to me. I may get tired everyday but every step that I take is leading me to my goals, the victory I am praying for everyday. They have seen every tear I cried, have heard my complain, have witnessed every achievement I received. Now, i’m still choosing to struggle with it everyday.
This school help me to grow a better person, and to be a good nurse in the future.My High School Friends

Duty
Sometimes you just want to catch a break, and you may even go through periods in which you want to quit altogether.When you’re so busy, with so many demands on your time and energy, it’s hard to step back and assess everything that’s going on.
Only when you finally hit the wall with stress or exhaustion do you realize you may be burning the candle at both ends, making you wonder if it’s all worth the effort.Sometimes you can be inspired by fellow students, a teacher or professor, or even your parents. Having a goal for your future can give you a reason for working hard and being disciplined with your school work.But in the quiet of late night when you’re alone with your thoughts and feelings, it’s nice to have some words of wisdom to turn to when you’re uninspired, unmotivated, or overwhelmed. The right time can give you the boost you need to galvanize your energy and charge forward.

At para sa aming mabuting guro, salamat sa matiyagang pagtuturo. Para sa mga agilang mag aaral na katulad ko, wag sususko sa ating muting pangarap. Kaya natin to.!

In December 2019,Wuhan City the capital of Hubei province in China became the center of outbreak of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2). The outbreak have started from zoonotic transmission event associated in the large seafood wholesale market selling a live wild animals, it is said that transmission can happen in person-to person contact. In past many year several viral epidemics has been reported in 2002-2003 the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus( SARS-CoV), 2009 the H1N1 influenza and the Middle East respiratory syndrome corona virus(MERS-CoV) was identified in Saudi Arabian in 2012.
Corona viruses are a large family of viruses which may cause illness in animals or humans. In humans, several coronaviruses are known to cause respiratory infections ranging from the common cold to more severe diseases such as Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS). The most recently discovered coronavirus causes coronavirus disease COVID-19.

Trip ko lng po tong anggulo! 😅😋
Hi! Human. I’m jerome Cortez but you can call me jm for short, 20 year’s of age. From Gonzaga, Cagayan. Motto in life is “Do my best, so that i can’t blame myself fo anything.”
As you know, I’m not the typical boy-next-door and love to embrace and celebrate that here on my blog and just in my daily life. Yes, I can be a bit quirky, weird and awkward sometimes but that’s just how I roll. To show you guys that nobody is perfect I’m sharing 5 weird facts about me.
Besides this I’m asking you guys to do the same! What makes you a bit weird, quirky or awkward? And let’s face it. We’re all kind of weird. From the little quirks, to the strange obsessions we have – we all do things that are, well…a bit out of the ordinary. That makes us all so unique!
1.Sleepy head – I can literally sleep all day long. I love to be active but the next thing I think about is when I can lay down and take a nap.3.Put on the music / When I get obsessed with a song, I’ll play it on repeat non-stop untill I stop liking it.3. Snacks battle Whenever there are desired snacks on a table it always feels like a battle to get enough of them. Love food!4. Making a poem- minsan gumagawa ako ng poem para mapasaya ko lang ang aking sarili. 5.My favorite movie: My all-time favorite is When Harry Met Sally. I just love the story of two people who hated each other in the beginning eventually forming a friendship that lasted years and years before ultimately ending up together. Call me a hopeless romantic, but it just pulls at my heartstrings. Add in the awesome comedy, and I was hooked!

Physical distancing helps limit the spread of COVID-19 – this means we keep a distance of at least 1m from each other and avoid spending time in crowded places or in groups. Protect yourself and others. Break the chain of transmission.
Preparedness planning is essential in order to respond effectively to outbreaks and epidemics. As people seek greater clarity on the risks they can expect to face and how to best minimize them. I prepared guidelines and rules and preventive measures recommended by WHO for us to be always ready and fight against the pandemic novel corona virus.
1. How to Isolate at Home?
Image: REUTERS/ Sergio Perez
If you are returning from an affected area, It is adviced for you to self-isolate for 14 days. Self isolation can help prevent the spread of infections such as novel corona virus (COVID 19).
Only allow people who live with you to stay.
Separate yourself from other people – try not to be in the same room as other people at the same time.
Stay in a well-ventilated room with a window that can be opened.
Make sure you tell delivery drivers to leave items outside for collection.
Clean toilets and bathrooms regularly.
Think about a bathroom rota if a separate bathroom is not available, with the isolated person using the facilities last, before thoroughly cleaning the bathroom themselves.
Use separate towels from anyone else in the household.
Wash crockery and utensils thoroughly with soap and water; dishwashers may be used to clean crockery and cutlery.
Taking the time to connect with friends and family to strengthen connections will help us get through this pandemic. But in a way we limit ourselves to face-to-face contact with others. Social distancing, also called “physical distancing,” means keeping space between yourself and other people outside of your home. To practice social or physical distancing:
Physical (social) distancing means limiting your physical contact 2 to 6 meters away with other people in order to stop, slow down or contain the spread of Covid19.
Stay at least 6 feet (about 2 arms’ length) from other people
Do not gather in groups
Stay out of crowded places and avoid mass gatherings
When you hear about face masks for COVID-19 prevention, it’s generally three types:
homemade cloth face mask
surgical mask
N95 respirator
Let’s explore each of them in a little more detail below.
Homemade face masks
Philstar.com
Homemade face masks only offer a small degree of protection, but they may help prevent the spread of SARS-CoV-2 from asymptomatic people. The DOH recommends using them in public settings, as well as practicing social distancing and proper hygiene.
NOTE: Wash homemade cloth masks after every use. When removing, be careful not to touch your eyes, nose, and mouth. Wash hands immediately after removing.
N95 Respiratiors
bworldonline.com
An N95 respirator is a more tight-fitting face mask. In addition to splashes, sprays, and large droplets, this respirator can also filter out 95 percentTrusted Source of very small particles. This includes viruses and bacteria.
Surgical masks
Philstar.com
Surgical masks are disposable, loose-fitting face masks that cover your nose, mouth, and chin. They’re typically used to:
protect the wearer from sprays, splashes, and large-particle droplets
prevent the spread of potentially infectious respiratory secretions from the wearer to others
WHEN TO USE FACEMASK
If you are healthy, you only need to wear a mask if you are taking care of a person with COVID-19.
Wear a mask if you are coughing or sneezing.
Masks are effective only when used in combination with frequent hand-cleaning with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.
If you wear a mask, then you must know how to use it and dispose of it properly.
HOW TO PUT ON, USE, TAKE OFF AND DISPOSE A MASK
Before putting on a mask, clean hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.
Cover mouth and nose with mask and make sure there are no gaps between your face and the mask.
Avoid touching the mask while using it; if you do, clean your hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.
Replace the mask with a new one as soon as it is damp and do not re-use single-use masks.
To remove the mask: remove it from behind (do not touch the front of mask); discard immediately in a closed bin; clean hands with alcohol-based hand rub or soap and water.
Hands are the primary carriers of dirt, viruses, and bacteria, as they can come into contact with so many different surfaces throughout the day. Without proper hand washing, it may cause invasion of bacteria entering the body or cross contamination. Unfortunately, many people don’t know how to properly wash their hands or don’t make the necessary effort. So I’m sharing the correct 7 steps which I always do and recommended by DOH.
7 Steps of Handwashing
Step 1: Wet Hands
Wet your hands and apply enough liquid soap to create a good lather. The temperature of the water should be between 35ºC and 45ºC.
Step 2: Rub Palms Together
Rub your hands palm to palm in circular motions. Rotate clockwise and anticlockwise.
Step 3: Rub the Back of Hands
With your fingers linked through the other hand, use your right palm to rub the back of your left hand. Then swap.
Step 4: Interlink Your Fingers
Link your fingers together, facing each other, into clasped hands. Then rub your palms and fingers together.
Step 5: Cup Your Fingers
Cup your fingers together, with your right hand over and your left hand under. With your fingers interlocked, rub the backs of them against your palms. Then swap.
Step 6: Clean the Thumbs
Enclose your right hand around your left thumb and rub as you rotate it, then swap.
Step 7: Rub Palms with Your Fingers
Rub your fingers over your left palm in a circular motion, then swap.
Once you’ve followed these hand washing steps, you should then thoroughly rinse with warm running water and dry with a clean, disposable paper towel.
Consume at least five servings of fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and veggies are loaded with Vitamin C. This vitamin is one of the biggest immune system boosters of all. In fact, a lack of vitamin C can even make you more prone to getting sick. Foods rich in vitamin C include citrus fruits like oranges, dalandan or “ukban” and lemon. They are also rich in folate (folic acid) and dietary fiber and other antioxidants. Green leafy vegetables like malunggay, camote tops, and alugbati are also good sources of dietary fiber, Vitamins A, C and K, and minerals such as iron and calcium that help boost our immune system along with fruits.
Load yourself with foods rich in Vitamin A. This immune boosting vitamin can be sourced from sweet potatoes, carrots, broccoli, spinach, red bell peppers, eggs, and vitamin A fortified foods like milk and cereals.
Include foods high in Vitamin E in your daily diet. This vitamin improves immune function by neutralizing free radicals. Vegetable oils, nuts such as peanuts, almonds, seeds and green leafy vegetables are rich source of this essential vitamin.
Do not forget Zinc. This mineral helps the immune system and wards off viruses. Zinc can be sourced from meats, shellfish, legumes like beans, seeds. nuts, dairy products, eggs and whole grains.
The WHO has also been reminding the public to be wary of raw food. It is therefore recommended to lessen the consumption raw or uncooked foods and avoiding crowded areas as much as possible to lessen the possibility of acquiring such infections.
B. Exercise and be physically active
acsm.org
Another healthy reminder is to exercise and be physically active. Exercise and physical activities help maintain the ideal body weight as well as reduces blood sugar and cholesterol level. At least 30 minutes of exercise or an hour of physical activity is recommended daily.
C. Keep hydrated
emro.who.int
Keeping our body hydrated is one very essential reminder to fight against infections. Fluids in the body needs to be constantly replenished to keep your tissues healthy. So, don’t forget to bring your bottle of water for your daily eight (8) glasses of water.
D. A good rest is a must
webmd.com
Healthy diet and regular exercise partnered with a well-rested body does not only strengthen the immunity but also improves cardiovascular health, lowers blood pressure, helps control body weight, and protects against a variety of diseases including viral infections. Therefore, remember to have eight hours of sleep every day.
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”
As the world endures quarantines, closures, and even panic during the coronavirus pandemic, God offers peace. His Word can displace anxiety and fear with hope and healing. Let us be together fight coronavirus and together we all find peace.
