Add another post about Administering medicines to the patient that will answer the following questions:
1. What significant insights have you learned from the topic?
 I have learned several things in the act of apprehending the topic of home nursing. I have seen that my classmates and I have the capabilities and true desire to become a nurse, or even a doctor someday. I have seen that our teacher preparing and teaching us the right way of preparing a occupied and an unoccupied bed, and we l;earned how to calm a patient while preparing it. I hope that I can help in my family someday whenever someone gets a disease or an illness.




2. How does proper administering of medicines help our patients in their recovery?
It helps the patient in the most explicit way as possible because medicine can help cure patients in a fast time(sometimes not) due to the nutrients, and the effects of it will be good ones.

Health care to the individual, to the family and to the community is important because it can help the individual alleviate his pain or sickness. It can help the individual get better with technological advancements in medicine.Health care can save lives in many ways, such as the use of medicine, the right or proper treatments, etc.

Recycled crafts project! :-)

Before I start, I should state here that we had two projects. A mini picture frame, and a Zippered bottom-bottled container. But I can only share what I had done with the second item.

We used Sewing materials (needles, etc.) a zipper,  yarn, the bottom of a bottle container (plastic), and that's all.

I was assigned to tie the zippers, and it turned out to be alright, I was also brought materials, and I encoded the needed information about our projects that was a requirement as well.

After we saw the finished product, I felt happy that it turned out not only okay, but magnificent. Seing something as simple, but beautiful and awesome, it made me feel that recycling items, and turning them inot something useful in the future, a lot more needed for each one of us to do.

Our teacher asked us to make a card about our experiences doing this card. It was fun, fun, and more than fun. Even though I crammed for this card, I still feel happy for having this output. Doing this thank you letter for my parents were one of the highlight's I've done during the christmas season. With all my effort placed in this work, I felt proud after my mom and sister signed it for me. (too bad dad wasn't able to sign it) :-)
So, that's it. :-)

JAM, Atfest and all.

Good afternoon y'all! With the exams fast approaching (well, for the High School, to be exact), I need to study for it without distractions. But for now, with the laptop in my desk, I should do this as quickly yet, as informative it can be. Experiences in the JAM 2012 and Ateneo Fiesta 2012 are extravagant. Why? AdZU HS hosted the biggest Ateneo athletics meet in the nation. AdMU, AdDU, Sacred Heart, Xavier Univ, AdNU, and of course the host school, AdZU participated in 3 days of thrilling days of sports. Too bad our other sister schools of Ateneo de Iloilo, Xavier School, and I forgot the other one, didn't make it. But still, celebrating JAM in AdZU is at the right, perfect moment. For this year, 2012, we go back in time in 1912, were AdZU was born (not yet a university at that time though, and it was only for grade school). The centennial ateneo fiesta is the highlight of this this school year. Extravagant performances from the different courses, departments, or what have you. It was fun filled, especially the HS night, when I danced with her. :> BOOM!
The thing that I didn't slightly liked about JAM, is that the athletes are all males. We and my gang were expecting female volleyball players from AdMU, such as Gretchen Ho, to be here. So that we will be the first in line for pictures and autographs. So anyway, HAHAHA! One word to describe this events, Oh wait, it took me a paragraph and not a single word to describe this extravagant events. ;-)
