i'm a human. i need somehow to entertain this sadness that comes my way. and of course i now feel sad. (stupid, i know) i knew somebody cares yet i know it feels that no one cares... though its not a big deal to me yet it matters to me... *sigh* i need comfort. i'm a girl. but...how, everything is obscure... *sigh* it's just actually me who make things more complicated... i need a recess break in my life., a true recess break where the only thing that i could think of is nothing... -meWHOembraceSADNESS

tortures

*currently doing some projects but stole some time to unwind*

I'm here at our school internet café (finished my basnut proj) though I have no class for today. We just had a meeting a while ago towards our community diagnosis (CDX). Well to share to you what is CDX - it is our life. Because if anything goes wrong with it and if we couldn't pass it on time, therefore, even if we already passed the NAT exam or even our last semester grades are fine, we still cant enroll into third year. Policy is a policy. If only I can list all down our problems towards our CDX. *sigh* anyway, it is much way harder this time. [I just hope I can manage to reach our third year] “waaahhh, nanghihinayang talaga ako sa isang taon na nasayang sa walang kwentang school sa olongapo…blah! Tricking all of the students that was enrolled and saying they already had the permit of CHED… that’s why I’m still on my 2^nd year, and so, I transferred school” (ok, stop this long long time ago issue) so where was I… so actually this is my hell week…actually my hell month…and this Saturday and Sunday will be our midterm exam anyway to be much clearer…I’ll make my schedule here, so here it goes:

Today is Wednesday (things to do)

o        Review primary health care (where among the 5 meetings that we should have, we only had 2 and now we are so so late and to add the fact that our exam is departmentalized.)

o        Review theology (proly just going to skip this, it’s so boring! Can’t understand the lectures) –Midterm exam this Thursday *see below*-

o        Make a reviewer for BAsnut because honestly… like for example our professor will discuss chapter 10 (vitamins-fat soluble) with about 10+ pages and will finished it in just a minute or so…like if she’s going to summary our book containing about 500+ pages, she’ll most probably come up with 50+ pages (over? She’s just like that.) There’s actually no problem with it but our exam is departmentalize. And she’s not the only proff in basnut subj. *dies*

Thursday

o        Classes will be up to 7pm because make up class for our primary health care II. And I’ll die afterwards…-.-

o        Review for our STS handout 7-9

o        CDX after the 7pm class…(re-tally, I think) and to add info about re-tallying, it is a process where your brain would want to pop out of your head due to overlapping data.

Friday

o        Classes will be up to 4:30 pm, meaning I’ll be home probably by 5:30 and with that I still have 15hours remaining for a review for our micro and STS with lots of pages to em-e-em-o-RIZE. Micro(myco-aids = 4 handouts) where during quizzes I almost stayed for 3 hours to review ONE HANDOUT and still, having mistakes and all that. While STS, I HOPE I can maintain to be on top in the class…T_T so goodluck to me…I wont sleep this day.

o        Before I forgot, it’s my 2^nd monthsary to my best friend which happens to be my b.f now ^-^ wo0o0o though we’re to busy~~~ probably we won’t be able to see each other.

Saturday

• Midterm! I’ll probably sleep first before going to review PHC and Basnut.

Sunday

• Waaaaahhh.. I wont be able to go to morning service. Haiiiiizz >_< midterm exam for PHC and Basnut.

Monday

• Community Duty at Brgy. San Nicolas…(going to analyze and interpret the tables that was done by the group 3&4) CDX

And so the following and the following and the following weeks will be full blast to our CDX… (where will I insert our case study at theo??!!!! Waaaaaaahhhh we haven’t started anything. Even interviews….*dies*) so anyway enough with this… I still have to do what is written on my Wednesday things to do~~~~

Ate chette: waaaaaaahh!!! Thank you po sa editing sa STS!!! Alam ko po na super pagod ka na but despite of all…you still helped us!!! Thank you po!! Anyway, we got a grood grade towards the video… I love you po!!!!! Mwah!!!!

awooo..who's gonna edit our video..

wehehe, [previous post was erased and now i have 30mins left*not like a while ago, it was 2mins left*]

so anyway, i just came back from our meeting (we actually searched for 3 kids who aren't yet circumcised) wondering why? because our evil professors at STS wanted us to document some nursing procedures -yeah, i know circumcision is not in the field of nursing, but if we will managed to shoot it, then there's no doubt, our group will get a perfect score- and awhile ago, my prayers were answered, wo0o0o, ate chette just commented on me that she'll be willing to edit the video~ then we already found kids who are willing as well their parents regards to their circumcision, oh please pray for us that our shooting will go well.

anyway, whats new with me? there's really nothing in particular, same nursing tortures but a lot more difficult. so i still have things that is needed to be done..ehe~ till next post~ (i can't believe that it's been 4 months since my last update) ciao!!! i love you all! godbless~

ate chette: wahhhh.. oo nga, computer wizard kaw, nawala sa isip kuh...naisip namin kasi magpa-edit sa labas and we know it will cost us, pero ate chette~ waaaaahh youre an angel! pakita ko po sayo yung clips this sunday~ di pa po nashshoot yung circumcision eh... haizz....nakakaiyak tong course na ito, but xempre~ with the help of father god.. kayang kaya.. ajah! geh te chette~ dami dami pa gagawin.ehe mwah

hmmm...

i haven't been updating...

reasons:

family case analysis
paper works
finals is up
exams
reportings
pile up paper works...
and another heaps of paper works..
and yeah...
sort of sick.. well not sort of.. it's been weeks though
my temperature just range to 37.8-39C so yeah, blame
CON!!! chuchu.. ewayz despite that... i still thank god..
so yeah~ till then... i gotta do this paper-again-thingie...

ciao... wab yoush all!

and yeah~ i miss you all helluvalot

PLASMA	SERUM
It is the largest single component of blood comprising about 55% of total blood volume	Refers to blood plasma in which clotting factors (such as fibrin) have been removed.
It contains many vital proteins including fibrinogen, globulins and human serum albumin	The clear yellowish fluid obtained upon separating whole blood into its solid and liquid components after it has been allowed to clot
Resembles whey in appearance (transparent with a faint straw colour). It is mainly composed of water, blood proteins, and inorganic electrolytes. It serves as transport medium for glucose, lipids, amino acids, hormones, metabolic end products, carbon dioxide and oxygen. (Oxygen transport capacity of plasma is much lower than that of the hemoglobin in the red blood cells; it may increase under hyperbaric conditions.)	Serum Albumin a blood protein: it’s a protein abundant in blood serum that helps regulate the osmotic pressure of blood Serum Globulin a soluble blood protein: it’s a globular protein or mixture of proteins in the blood that contains many antibodies
Is the storage and transport medium of clotting factors and its protein content is necessary to maintain the oncotic pressure of the blood.	It is the liquid part of blood: the fluid that separates from clotted blood, similar to plasma but without clotting agents

What’s the difference between plasma and serum?

Plasma and serum are both fluid components of the blood. However, serum is only present in the blood subsequent to clotting, after an injury. In essence, serum is identical to plasma, but it does not contain the components necessary for the clotting reaction (such as fibrinogens).

Plasma comprises approximately 55% (the other 45% is red blood cells) of the total blood volume, and contains salts and ions such as calcium, sodium, potassium, and bicarbonate. It also contains larger molecules such as amino acids, lipids (fats), vitamins, and hormones. Approximately 91-92% of blood plasma is water, 7-8% is protein, and 1-2% is other solutes, such as electrolytes and nutrients

Importance of Plasma:

It's a straw-colored, clear liquid that is 90 percent water, and it is an essential ingredient for human survival.  It might seem like plasma is less important than the blood cells it carries. But that would be like saying that the stream is less important than the fish that swims in it. You can't have one without the other.  Besides water, plasma also contains dissolved salts and minerals like calcium, sodium, magnesium, and potassium. Microbe-fighting antibodies travel to the battlefields of disease by hitching a ride in the plasma.  Without plasma, the life-giving blood cells would be left floundering without transportation. Never underestimate the importance of plasma

Added information about serum:

Identification of a major serum DNA-binding protein as factor B of the alternative complement pathway

One of the major proteins in human serum capable of binding DNA has been shown to be factor B of the alternative pathway of complement activation. This protein, designated DNA-binding protein-2 (DBP-2), is recognized by antisera directed against both factor B and its activated form, fragment Bb. Its m.w., charge microheterogeneity, and amino acid composition correspond closely with reported values for those properties of factor B. A radioimmunoassay was used to estimate the serum concentration of DBP-2 at 266 +/- 83 microgram/ml, which also corresponds with the level of factor B normally present in the serum. DBP-2 functions as factor B in the activation of factor B-depleted serum. Limited proteolytic treatment of DBP-2 produced a fragment pattern resembling that of factor B both in the m.w. of the fragments and their electrophoretic mobilities. By means of DNA affinity chromatography of the fragments produced by trypsinization, the DNA-binding domain of DBP-2 was localized.

godbless!
