reminiscing

7 10 2007

This weekend happened to be one of the longest “breaks” I had ever since I started internship.  My friday OPD time only lasted until 1 pm, and then I won’t have any work until tomorrow.  Even if tomorrow is another Pedia duty, I don’t mind since I had a long rest.  I wish I had more weekends like this.  It was just too bad that I didn’t see my parents and my siblings since my parents and sister are in the US and my brother is busy with his work.  I did go out to see Phi’s premiere showing of “Stardust” a new fantasy-adventure flick starring Claire Danes, Michelle Pfeiffer, and my favorite Robert De Niro.  I invited my cousins Cielo and Tikoy to watch with me.  It was such a great movie, and I totally loved that fact that almost all of the people who watched were laughing together.  It was truly a night of relaxation for the med students of UP and its alumni.  I definitely recommend this movie to everyone who is out for a good laugh and is looking for a love story that is not so cheesy.  I definitely loved the performance of Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer, in Tagalog they are truly “Walang kupas”.  Seeng it in the big screen is definitely worth it, don’t watch it in a pirated copy, or you’ll miss the special effects and the great soundtrack.  Besides that, I spent the rest of the weekend finally reviewing (promise!) and downloading some old tunes that I loved as a kid.  I then remembered the good old days when I used to play with DLSU Pops Orchestra.  Those were definitely a part of my golden days.  Tomorrow is the start of another week, the 2nd week of my Pedia rotation.  I love the fact that the days are going by so quickly, that only means that I am finally getting the hang of things and that I am really enjoying my stay in UP.
