The President's Message
We've all had those mornings, where we're running out the door late, forgot our coffee on the counter, reached for an identification badge to access the hospital garage, dropped our cell phone only to have it fall under the passenger seat, while managing to lose grip on the identification badge, dropping it between the seats. The morning only gets better; as you step in to the elevator and drop your patient list with extreme precision that allows it to slip right down the elevator shaft! Morning rounds however, gave me a fresh perspective on my 'problems'.
Walking in to my first patient's room, I'm greeted by Ms. M who is a 92 year old, legally blind amputee, recovering from the amputation of her right leg. As I leaned closer to hear her softly mutter apologetic words, my heart sank to hear the sorrow and apologies escaping her mouth because she couldn't wait any longer for nursing assistance and soiled her bed. She continued to explain that she put on her call button and was told someone was coming. However, her call for help came during the middle of a shift change and when the patient care assistant came to the door, the response was "it's not my fault, I just got here." It's at this point that I need to take a breath, count to ten and remind myself that advocating for Ms. M and her well-being is the most important priority. It's in this moment that I take the opportunity to advocate for the role of provider, professional responsibility and ethical care of our patient.
Advocacy is derived from the legal term of advocate, which means: a person who argues for or supports a cause or policy: a person who works for a cause or group: a person who argues for the cause of another person in a court of law. The meaning of advocacy for nurses is much more complex than the legal definition and often challenging to interpret. A very common barrier to advocacy is the believing that it is impossible for one person to make a difference.
The term 'advocacy' as it pertained to nursing was first introduced by the International Council of Nurses in 1973. (Vaario &Leino-Kilpi,2004). The American Nurses Association (ANA) considers advocacy an essential component of the ethical practice of nursing. Nurses have a responsibility to ensure the best patient experience, this is what we do best- leading persons to health with compassion, intelligence and competence. (Fahey, JVN 2001) One of the most effective tools that Florence Nightingale employed was advocacy for individuals and the early profession of nursing. During her lifetime, Ms. Nightingale demonstrated a passion for improving healthcare and provided nursing with a foundational philosophy for practice that holds true today. (Selanders,2010)
One of the core values and a key element of the Society for Vascular Nursing (SVN) Strategic Plan is Advocacy for vascular nurses and persons living with vascular disease. The foundational leaders of SVN recognized advocacy as a critical component of the Scope and Standards of our specialty practice. Enhancing the caring environment, promoting the health of our patients, and supporting the vascular nurse are essential components of the mission of the SVN. SVN Founding President Jeanne Doyle stated "Through continued advocacy efforts, and collaborative partnerships, the Society also plays a vital role in the multidisciplinary vascular specialty arena…As the recognized experts in vascular nursing; we must continue to chart the course." (Doyle,J, 2007) Through the continued efforts of our dedicated members we continue to influence the quality of care for vascular patients through a variety of mechanisms.
- The Core Curriculum for Vascular Nursing- written by vascular nursing experts, providing a tool for early recognition and treatment of vascular diseases to improve quality of life and continuity of care. This reference is recently revised and on sale now. SVN members receive a 25% discount.
- Education materials- Booklets and patient instruction sheets designed by the SVN Education Committee and available for reference for patients as well as staff nurses not familiar with Peripheral Vascular disease and its treatments.
- Scope and Standards of Vascular Nursing Practice- written by nurse expert members of SVN in collaboration with the American Nurses Association is newly revised and intended to guide the practice of every vascular nurse.
- SVN Position Statement for PAD as the Public Policy Committee monitors and responds to legislative, policy and social issues that impact the delivery of care and supports SVN collaboration with other vascular-related organizations and coalitions. In addition, they have worked to gain recognition of the Vascular Nursing specialty through individual state Proclamations of Vascular Nursing week signed by the current governors.
- 33rd Annual Convention- developed and planned by our Convention Planning Committee to provide high quality and diverse presentations that support current knowledge of the vascular nurse to ensure high quality care to our patients. Save the date April 29-May 1st, 2015 and join us in Las Vegas.
- The Society Promotion and Member Recognition Committee seek opportunities to advocate for and promote the vascular nursing specialty, the unique skills and accomplishments of the SVN members as a resource to other healthcare providers.
- Clinical Guidelines and Review of current research by our Practice and Research Committee intended to improve outcomes for our patients and enhance continuity of care for the vascular patient.
- The Journal of Vascular Nursing is a peer reviewed publication with an Editorial Board of expert vascular nurses.
- The ABI Registry: another tool in our belt to support the community in education and screening programs.
Explore these opportunities to participate in and consider sharing your expertise. Take the opportunity to advocate as a role model when you encounter that unfortunate patient care situation, sharing knowledge one-on-one, can bring about amazing change. One person can make a difference.
We are challenged every day to work more efficiently and often with fewer resources. We have to make difficult decisions, discharging patients to home situations that are risky and very often unsupported. Collaborating, exploring new methods of treatment, educating others about our practice, educating families and patients are all important avenues for advocating for quality vascular health care.
It's during these moments that challenge us, that I'm reminded of this quote by Audry Hepburn, "I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it's the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It's probably the most important thing in a person."

In this quarter, SVN seeks input from membership and works toward expanding the organization and its member education and benefits.•Vascular Nurses Week June 7-13, 2014
Our Public Policy and Advocacy Committee invited the State Governors to join us in celebrating those nurses who are improving outcomes for persons living with vascular disease by honoring the second week of June as Vascular Nurses Week. Six state governors signed proclamations for this very
special celebration. Members organized many local activities that were highlighted on the SVN Facebook page. We need to continue to promote this opportunity to recognize our specialty practice.

One of my favorite sessions to date! Leevi was such a beautiful baby boy with a head full of hair, and he was a dream to pose and photograph. His beautiful mom and I have known each other since college (you know, just a year or so ago), so it was such an honor that she chose me to be a part of her newborn's first session, and it was such fun catching up. Leevi is one lucky little boy with such great parents; I look forward to watching him grow over the next year!
Here are just a few of my favorites from his newborn session. Enjoy❤

text: Alonso energised by visit to Ferrari kids summer camp 25 July, 2013 Fernando Alonso and Luca di Montezemolo in amongst the kids What could be more energising than the enthusiasm of six hundred children? Not much, as Luca di Montezemolo and Fernando Alonso could affirm when, this morning, along with the Managing Director Amedeo Felisa and the Director of Human Resources Mario Mairano, they went to visit those taking part in the 2013 Junior Summer Formula, the summer camp for children of the company's employees, organised by Ferrari and the Maranello local council. Everyone received a very warm welcome from the kids and not just metaphorically, given the high temperatures we are seeing at the end of July, at the "Chiaffredo Cassiani" infants school, one of four (three in Maranello and one in Modena) that are involved in the project. There were two special gifts to mark the occasion: from the mothers of some of the children, Montezemolo was given a leather emblem made in the Selleria department as a thank you for making this programme possible, while Fernando was given a parcel containing a large number of letters written to him by the children, obviously singing the praises of their hero in red. "This is a really great initiative that demonstrates the close links between the company and the area," said Montezemolo,turning to Lucia Bursi, the Mayor of Maranello. "I wish to thank the local council of Maranello for its support in this project, which is growing ever more popular, year after year." Indeed, the number of participants is increasing all the time: in the four camps held so far, the numbers have grown from 200 to 600, divided into two groups, the 3 to 6 year olds and 7 to 14. Over fifty teachers are on hand, all involved in the planning and organisation of the event which runs every day from 7.30 to 20.30, to cover all three factory shifts. "A good energy boost, almost the same as the one you get from KERS at the start," said Fernando. "Just what was needed before heading off to Budapest!" (Ferrari F1) Subbed by AJN.

The striking Moroccan-style 'Red House' was built by an American colonel, John Clay MacKown, in 1876. Constructed around a 16th-century defensive tower, the building houses an eclectic collection of 19th-century paintings, including some evocative scenes of Capri by Gonsalvo Carelli (1818–1900), and by French painter Eduard Alexandre Sain, who really captures the spirit of 19th century Capri in spirited works such as the 'Wedding in Capri'.
The museum also houses a colossal 1st century Roman statue discovered during excavations of the Blue Grotto in the early 19th century.

Please remember that if you are having a Spring Clean you can donate your no longer wanted books to the Club's Book Table.
Funds raised go towards helping to buy new equipment and Special Projects within the Club, with books eventually being recycled to local Charity Shops.
The TDs request that players should make every effort to arrive at the Club at least 10 minutes before the advertised start time.
As BridgeMates are in use for nearly all sessions it is time consuming and tiresome to reset everything to ensure a prompt start if players are arriving late. This is particularly so on busy nights such as Monday and Thursday when adequate time should be allowed by players for car parking.
Complaints are received about late evening finishes and incomplete hence unfair movements which a prompt start would somewhat alleviate.

Was my post lost entirely, or do I now have permission to post again in that thread? Here's the link again to the thread that was rejecting me:
thanks for your help

I did something incredibly dull and posted a first post of pics and images in the Critique/WIP forum.
Sorry about that. Just to let you know I'm legit and new to this forum.
February 1st, 2012 #128
Hi, can you please have a look at two posts of mine that are waiting moderation? One of them contains reference links which is understandable but the other one is just critique which makes it weird
Thanx in advance

Hi! I´m new and I opened a new thread in the sketchbook section. the thread doesn´t appear in the forums nor in my profile. I did something wrong or is it just waiting for approval?
February 6th, 2012 #130
I tried to open the thread again (stupid me) and the forum said I had to wait for it to be approved... I would prefer the first one to be approved, and the second to be deleted, since they are the same thing

I made a sketchbook yesterday too and it's not approved yet and so I did some searching, just wondering how long it might take, and found this thread and a few others like it. I'm still not quite sure I understand how things work now but from the sounds of a few posts I've seen it seems it's worthwhile or sometimes necessary to ask for your posts to be approved. If that's the case, I'd like to have my sketchbook approved, yes, please...

Hi! I'm sorry to bother, but I now have that 20+ posts and a topic I posted in critique center about a week ago still hasn't shoved up. Nor has any of the comments that went into moderation when I posted them so... are they gonna pop up on their own, or could someone fix that? Thanks in advance!
//whops, my mistake, comments have indeed showed up. I'd still be interested in finding out whats going on with that critique center topic, has it disaapeared or is it stuck somewhere, should I repost it... I'd really like to get feedback on it. Reeeally sorry for trouble

Hi, could someone take a look at my posts that are awaiting approval. I didn't have a problem with it until this past weekend. All my posts went to be moderated and I think only two showed up.

I'm really disapointed at the moment as I posted on my wacom thread about a week ago asking for feedback about the bamboo tablet that I want to buy before I travel. It is now nearly time to travel and my posts have still not been approved along with the one I posted here several days ago. I guess this one will also not be approved. I don't understand the reasoning here? All I want is some feedback so I can no if this will be a good tablet for my travel? So I now have to probably just go ahead and buy them without knowing if they will be any good for my needs, thanks!
February 15th, 2012 #141
In addition, your question was answered by two users as the best tablet. If you look at other tablets, you can also look at the product info on Wacom's site to find out the differences between tablets.
These topics about "best tablet" have been done to death to a degree and other posts will also give you clues and answers if your posts don't get approved immediately on your purchasing decision.

I hate to be annoying, but I have more than 10 posts in moderation, and a sketchbook thread. I know it was because I had under 20 posts, but it seems like they haven't automatically come out of moderation. Do I need more posts? It was really difficult to get any posts at all at first.
EDIT: Thanks!

Findings for PPC in Gresham
Gresham Ranks Amongst Least Expensive Markets for Google Adwords in USA
SEP's ongoing research into PPC Campaigns has revealed that Gresham was the 244th least expensive city in USA in keyword bids in Google Adwords for the month of September 2014. Gresham also ranks amongst the least expensive cities in Oregon, ranking as number 4th. In the study, San Buenaventura ranked as the most expensive city in the country, while Ontario ranked as the least expensive city.
Google Adwords Keyword Prices 60% Lower in Gresham than Portland
SEP's research also tracks Google Adwords price changes and trends in cities across Canada and the U.S. Recent data shows that average prices in Gresham are 60% lower than in Portland. The average price of a click in Gresham is $5.52.
This price differential is expected however, as Portland has a larger population than Gresham.
The Price Rank shows how expensive keywords are in certain industry and segment relative to other cities in a country, region and province.

Name:Allen Riggs
Location:Metaline, WA
Weather: Temperatures are dropping, highs this week will be in the 40s with lows in the teens. Rain is moving in and out, snow is beginning to fall at higher elevations.
Snow Cover:Snow above 3000 feet.
Water Conditions:Water is cold and clear.
Feeding Conditions:Birds are feeding in the nearby fields and loafing and feeding in the rivers and lakes.
Species and Numbers:Both Canada goose and duck numbers are lower than average right now.
Migrations:Beginning to see some Canada geese moving through.
Season Stage:Week 5 of the season.
Hunting Report:Hunting remains slow due to the lack of birds.
Gossip:Hunting should pick up with the cold weather moving through.
Name:Kent Contreras
Location:Newport, WA
Weather:Low temps have been in the teens and highs in the 30's. Forecasts are showing a good cold snap reaching the area with some snow flurries and windy conditions.
Snow Cover: Snow arrived to the higher elevations over the week and some valley bottom snow flurries have occurred.
Water Conditions: Water levels are starting to drop.
Feeding Conditions: Moderate to good feeding conditions at this time.
Species and Numbers:Below average number of resident geese and puddle ducks.
Migrations:A few starting to show up – mostly Canada geese. Duck numbers remain static for now.
Season Stage:Fifth week of open season!
Hunting Report: With rain showers over the week – birds were scarce. Should see an increase in numbers as forecasts are favorable and water level dropping on the Pend Oreille River.
Gossip:Birds that are in the area have to seek refuge on the river as small ponds, lakes and backwaters begin to freeze.
Name:Russell Brzezinski
Date:November 9th, 2014
Location:Scappoose, Oregon
Weather:Clear, sun and mild temps.
Snow Cover: N/A
Water Conditions: Small farm ponds
Feeding Conditions: Wheat fields
Species and Numbers:Didn't see the number of birds we saw in years past. The migration seems to be behind schedule this year for dark geese and mallards – not many geese around
Migrations:Didn't see many migrators either.
Season Stage: Mid-season stage
Hunting Report: Fair hunting this weekend on teal and wigeon. Not many mallards around or geese which seems odd. Reports are mixed from the area and many believe they're still stacked up north of the border.
Name:Rob Friedel
Date: 11/9/2014
Location:Hooper, UT
Weather:Warm, calm and sunny!
Snow Cover: Nada
Water Conditions: Impoundments for the WMAs are all holding a good bit of water. The Great Salt Lake and surrounding marshes are struggling. Local WMA manager says they are holding on to what little they have since October produced nearly zero rain!
Feeding Conditions: There wasn't a real push to get fat for a migration this week. Hard to when the highs are in the upper 60s. A full moon led to easy night flying and eating after shooting hours.
Species and Numbers:The swans are continuing to show up, along with more divers. Didn't see a surge in puddle ducks this week.
Migrations:Swans and divers
Season Stage:One month and a week down.
Hunting Report: Hunted a lot scouted more, harvested very few. Bunched birds seemed to separate making it tough to find concentrations. Big water layout spreads have been shooting well.
Gossip:Just lie to me and tell me that it will get better soon!
Name:Travis Madden
Location:Orem, Utah
Weather:Mornings have cooled off and clear skies and sunny the remainder of the week
Snow Cover:None
Water Conditions:Depending on where you hunt it will vary most places are low
Feeding Conditions:Again feeding conditions are varying with little water this summer. Fields should have good feed
Species and Numbers:Lots of divers moving into the area. Still plenty of puddle ducks and more are moving in.
Migrations:Seeing new birds with the last cold front. Swans are also starting to move in
Season Stage:A month into the season and warm temps made it not so hot hunting but November should heat up!
Hunting Report:More birds being harvested with the last cold front. Swans are starting to show up as well. Hunting should get good for November.
Gossip: Nothing at this time.
Name:David Harper
Location:Twin Falls, Idaho
Weather:Temps have been warm with day time temps hitting the mid-sixties with abundant sunshine, until the front moved through the last couple of days. Yesterday I never saw the temp get above 28 and colder forecasted for today. With snow expected the next two days.
Snow Cover:No snow cover today, all could be changing Thursday this week.
Water Conditions: There is a lot of water around right now but is freezing up quickly with the cold front unless birds are keeping it open.
Feeding Conditions: A lot of the corn has been harvested and birds are using it readily. I expect them to be in it even more with the dramatic drop in temperatures.
Species and Numbers:Great mix of ducks around now, major push of divers on the front of this storm as well as mallards and pintails. The geese are still lagging behind a bit.
Migrations:For the last couple of days I have watched large groups of migrators moving into the area as this front pushing through. Snow geese to ducks have made a definite appearance.
Season Stage:1 month down.
Hunting Report: With the recent change in weather, things are picking up! If you haven't made it out yet, now is the time for some good hunting.
Gossip:Canvasbacks and redheads are sitting heavy on the Snake River, could make for some fun shoots.
Name:Tailor Sponcey
Location:Twin Falls, Idaho
Weather:Highs in the 50-60s until cold front moved in on 11-9. Highs in the 30s the past couple days.
Snow Cover:0 inches on valley floor.
Water Conditions: Most areas are full except for the Hagerman WMA.
Feeding Conditions: Corn harvest is still going on so feed fields are becoming more abundant.
Species and Numbers:Very mixed species list right now of mostly mallards, wigeon, gadwall, pintail, and some divers. Mallards have really moved in from some hunting reports I've heardof the last two days.
Migrations:Mallards have made a big push into the valley and some flocks of swans and snow geese are passing over.
Season Stage: 1 month down.
Hunting Report: Hunting has been difficult due to the lull of locals leaving and migrators not here yet. I am seeing and hearing of good numbers of mallards being killed since the storm hit on Monday.
Gossip: Nothing at this time.
Name:Travis Lyle
Location:Fernley, NV
Weather:Mid 60's for high temps. And lows in the 40's
Snow Cover: There's still a little left up there, but with the warmer temps it's melting fast.
Water Conditions:Bad.Water is now shut off going to greenhead and Stillwater. This is it, so make the best of it and hope for wet weather. Other area's water is still receding, but hoping with the cold weather it will slow down
Feeding Conditions: Its' the same as the water, little to none. Been seeing some plots of wigeon grass floating around in a few areas
Species and Numbers:Still have spoonbills and teal. There are some mallards, swans and some snows that showed up over the weekend. Birds are moving in but I'm thinking they are not going to stay long once they see the water or lack thereof
Migrations:Birds are showing up but might not stay long. Have to hit it just right this year.
Season Stage:Into the fifth week of the season.
Hunting Report: Not many limits coming out of anywhere and not many hunters over the weekend.
Gossip:Still hear people yelling, and with the way they have some of the areas set up with opening gates it's no big surprise. Not hearing much at all gossip-wise.

Buoyed By Facebook, Social Media Sites Hit All-Time Traffic Highs In May
While Facebook gets the lion's share of attention, the overall adoption of social media is also lifting several sites to all-time traffic levels and there's no sign that this will change anytime soon.
According to a new comScore report, LinkedIn, Twitter and Tumblr — in addition to Facebook — all hit new highs for U.S. audience size during May.
The details:
- LinkedIn.com: 33.4 million visitors, 58% growth in the past year
- Twitter.com: 27 million visitors, 13% growth in the past year
- Tumblr.com: 10.7 million visitors, 166% growth in the past year
Not shown on the chart above is Facebook, which hit an all-time high of 157.2 million visitors in May — up 3.2 million visitors from April. ComScore says Facebook is the fourth largest U.S. web property.
Also not shown is MySpace — still the number two social networking site with 34.9 million visitors in May, but that's trending down. ComScore says the site's "audience has declined by nearly 50% in the past year while average user engagement has dropped 85%."
Social Media Usage Continues To Rise
The bigger picture is that social media as a whole continues to grow as part of Americans' daily lives online. This comScore chart shows continued growth in how much of our online time involves social networking.
According to comScore's numbers, social networking now represents about one of every six minutes spent online in the U.S.; in 2007, it was about one of every 12 minutes.
DON'T MISS OUT! The agenda for Search Engine Land's SMX West search marketing show is now up. Search marketing is the biggest area of digital marketing. You can't afford to get it wrong!

Six novel microsatellite loci, containing (GA)15\N17 or (GT)10\N19 perfect tandem repeats, were isolated and characterized for the catadromous eel Anguilla japonica. The allelic size of the 6 loci ranged from 79 to 226 bp in length. All loci were polymorphic with a mean number of 14.7 alleles per locus and a mean heterozygosity of 0.67, suggesting higher polymorphism than that of freshwater and anadromous fishes, but lower than that of marine fishes. Genotype diversity of the 6 loci ranged from 0.22 to 0.61 with a mean value of approximately 0.5. Cross-species amplification showed that 5 of the 6 microsatellite primers proved to be useful in addressing questions of population genetics for all Anguilla species.

- Frederic Lawrence Knowles
As always, another adventure beckons, so here I am unloading pictures from my phone in hopes of capturing the beautiful moments of my last trip far longer than this phone can ever fathom. I do so because I know there will be days when I'll be stuck in 14-hour sleepless work days and I'll need a reminder of what I'm doing all this for.
And this reminder, Coron, will be one of the most beautiful reminders I can ever have.
Somewhere out there is a paradise waiting to be visited. Less than an hour away from Manila with limitless beautiful spots to devour.
I went for a quick weekend, but even that was enough to induce the energy and excitement I have been yearning for for a while now.
Although this wasn't my first time to see Coron's beauty, I still was pretty much in awe during the whole time I was there.
Why? Well, let's start with the string of pictures below and maybe you won't need my words to explain. Although you know I still will. Here it goes:
The view on the hike up to go see Kayangan Lake
Special thanks to Darss for taking most of these amazing pictures, by the way.
So there you go. Do you get what I mean when I say that there's no need to say anything about these beautiful spots? In every corner, every boat ride, every Island stop… I was in complete awe of the world's beauty.
I purposely did not mention the specific places as going Island/Lake hopping is quite easy. All you need to do is go for any package and the friendly and helpful guides will take you around paradise after paradise. Yes, to your heart's content. It would normally just cost 650 for one tour.
Aside from the beauty around, the beauty under the sea waiting for you to unravel is indescribable.
I'm not an avid fan of diving but I have to say I enjoyed snorkeling.
Take a look at these:
Photo credit: Darss ;)
For those who are wondering about what they should do there, below are spots I believe you should not miss out on:
1. Kayangan Lake
This is simply my favorite spot in Coron! Serene, relaxing, and beautiiiiful!! I stayed on a wooden plank relaxing sans any toxic thoughts and it was simply amazing!
2. Go island hopping!!
Beautiful, almost-secluded, beaches. Lakes. Clear water. Beautiful creatures under the sea. The first string of pictures shows the sights I saw while Island hopping. We started the tour at about 9 am and ended at about 4 pm. All this for only P650.
3. Visit Maquinit Hot Springs
I have not gone for this during my first two Coron trips, but a lot of my friends say it's worth it. Even if you get to Coron in the afternoon, you'll still be able to manage in the evening. It worth a visit, I hear. I'll definitely go during my 3rd trip.
4. Climb Mt. Payas
I didn't get to do this; obviously because I only had practically half a day.
Here are pictures taken by Darss though:
5. Meet people! Go out there, join big traveling groups. That's the best part about traveling anyway.
Our island hopping tour was composed of six individuals. Individuals I would otherwise never have met had I not gone for this adventure. I was lucky, my trip was made even more memorable thanks to them.
Oh and where did I stay? During my first trip two years ago, I stayed in Coron Gateway Hotel. They had exceptional service. They upgraded our room to the best suite they had which was awesome! Spacious and fairly new when we stayed there.
For this trip, we stayed in Sea Dive Restaurant which was just as nice. My favorite part about that place is the view from the restaurant. So beautiful.
Below are some pictures:
How much was the damage? And this, I always include so everyone can see that it is pretty much manageable! Coron isn't as expensive as most people think.
Below is the breakdown:
* P4,900 for my plane ticket from PAL (which I bought on the Wednesday before my trip that Saturday)
* P1,300 per night from Sea Dive Resort
* Food per meal is about P100-P300
* Island hopping per day is about P650. You can also rent a boat for about P2000
* P150 for the van to and from the airport
As I traveled through Coron for the second time, what made it a lil more special this time around was having my Travel Finds Jcaf Art bag with me. I had a little bit of my art world with me while exploring which was amazing.
Oh beautiful Coron, this blog will never ever be enough to let everyone know how beautiful you are…
For those reading this, if you have not
gone there… It's high time you book a flight and head out there. Trust me! ;)
All she wanted,
was to find a place to stretch her bones
A place to lengthen her smiles
and spread her hair
A place where her legs could walk
without cutting and bruising
A place unchained
She was born out of ocean breath.
I reminded her:
'Stop pouring so much of yourself
into hearts that have no room for themselves
Do not thin yourself
Be vast
You do not bring the ocean to a river.

To all the girls who thought of giving up on REAL & beautiful love,
I've been there. I thought that the vision I had of love that was magical, beautiful, and unconditional was but a product of all the fairy-tales we have been made to watch as little dainty girls.
At 30, a lil more grown-up, I have seen love through different stages. Falling in love. Loving. Staying in love. Fighting to keep it. Struggling. And failing, yes failing. After the last relationship I had, I seriously told myself that maybe love is but a decision. I tried to convince myself that that feeling that I was waiting for, the "you just know" feeling was just another myth…an illusion, a far-fetched idea.
I pretty much almost successfully convinced myself to believe in that absurd idea. I reached a point where I altered my standards and my expectations here and there to be able to find love and keep love.
But the grown-up me was wrong and the little girl version of me was right all along.
There will be a love so strong that will be able to make you forget about all the things that made you believe in its non-existence. A love so undeniable, it just takes over and you're just sure it's where you need to be at that very moment.
There is a guy who will look you in the eye when you share your innermost thoughts. Someone who will listen to the bad, alongside the good, parts of your story and will still find you beautiful. There is a guy who will pay attention to what makes your heart skip a beat as if it were his own heart he's keeping an eye on. There is a guy out there who takes note of the scars and wounds this life has left on you, and carefully kisses them in hopes of making them slowly fade away, or at least to lessen the pain they have left on your soul. There is a guy out there who knows what your heart says, even if you're too afraid to admit it. A guy who's patient enough to wait for you to open up again as he knows what your fear is made of and he's certain of what his love is capable of. There is a guy who will be able to sprinkle a bit of magic to every simple thing you do in life. Watching a movie becomes a hundred times more touching. Cuddling at night suddenly gives you the peace you've run after in thousands of places and in numerous ways. Talking becomes as entertaining as having 10 or more people around even if it's just really you and him across each other. There is a guy out there who will make you feel like you never have to question whether he wants you or not…the way he seeks time with you, the way he treats you…Well, it will just make your heart swell with love and certainty. There is a guy out there who will hug you so tight that every little crack, every little broken piece, will seem a little a new again… And one day you'll wake up to see that what you thought was unfixable, actually is.
To those who think this doesn't exist, you need to know it does. As the famous quote says "We accept the love we think we deserve." And if we should ever succumb to thinking we deserve less than what is actually out there for us, than what is actually waiting for us to discover, then it will definitely be such a tragedy.
Love is supposed to be beautiful. It is supposed to be magical. And you should never ever forget that. Somewhere out there and somewhere in time, you will find a love so true, a love so beautiful, that will make you understand why you had to wait…and why you had to keep the faith.
I'm so glad I fought back and kept my heart intact and hope full.
"Someday your prince will come," as fairy-tales always say and you should never ever believe otherwise.
You, my dear girl, deserve the fairy-tale of your life.
We all do.
Four more hours to go before I bid my 29th year goodbye. Here I am again writing my annual blog-slash-informal-summary of what the year has been like as I always do. This year is a bit more special as I am kissing such an essential decade of my life farewell. It is true, what they say, your 20s will truly make you understand who you are and what you want in life, if you use your years well.
The last few hours of my 29th self are invaded by nostalgic and happy thoughts of where I was 10 years ago, and all that has happened in between then and now. Being the only girl of six children and to add to that, being raised by my grandparents, I have always been the girl with the curfew, the girl who was NOT allowed to hang out with boys, the girl who was not allowed to go out of the house, the girl whose granddad (bless him) would wait for me to get home at 6 pm even when I already was in college.
I could have chosen to be that girl forever, but I didn't. I gave my family an ultimatum. Okay, I'll stay in my hometown for college but I must, and I mean MUST, leave for work the minute I graduate. And that is what I exactly did. Was I scared? Hell yes! Scared to walk alone, scared to commute, scared of almost everything. But not for too long.
More than two jobs and a sum of 10 years after, here I am, doing what I always thought I should be doing… living far away from home, sans curfews, sans protective brothers hovering around (well occasionally they're around which I love lol), but mostly sans the fear instilled in me since I was young.
I was once told I should pursue a certain profession to live a happy life. I knew what my heart wanted and I never forgot the passions I have always vividly understood since I could remember thinking for myself. And that is precisely why this year, my 29th year, proved to be such an important phase of my life. It is truly this year that I have fallen madly and COMPLETELY in love with my passions in life and that I am slowly but surely pursuing what I think I was meant to do in this universe.
I, The little girl who once painted on her bedroom door (against her grandmother's wishes), finally got to join an exhibit! I would never have known that this would be possible as I have never pursued it in the last 9 years. But I believe if something is meant for you, it will find its way knocking on your door if you keep your love for it alive. Aside from that, I am doing a job I love, hosting. Talking to people, performing, and it keeps my heart alive and full.
I think what I am most grateful for this year is how my life took an unexpected turn which forced me to reorganize my priorities and plans in life, for the better. Looking back and remembering how that particular experience affected me at first, I know it had to happen. It gave me a new perspective of the next steps I should focus on.
With all that has happened, I only have one piece of advice to give those living their splendid 20s, remember to love yourself first. KNOW yourself. Pursue your dreams. Make mistakes. And don't be in a hurry to give your life to someone, unless you have given YOURSELF your best shot.
I am close to that, close to saying wow, I made it happen. And I can't help but be joyful for having faith in my dreams and in what I could do with them.
Yes, I am turning 30 soon, and I am welcoming this whole new adventure with arms wide open.
I'm Jamie…I'm 30 years old and happy. :)
Memories for keeps, highlights of year 29.
*New sunsets, new places, new friends, priceless. Bali, Siem Reap, Bangkok.
*Love revisited. Friends' special moments. Brothers. CDO. Camiguin. Family.
*Unforgettable Events…I'm one lucky host! ;)
*Travel Finds Jcaf Art Bags and Throw Pillows – 2nd Collection. My babies. My heart skips a beat every time I see a random person using the bag/pillow or when I see posts online. Indescribable!
*My artspired year!<3 I go through days when I can't stop thinking about an idea and I feel like I just have pick my paint brushes up and paint away. That's bliss for me… This year I was lucky enough to be asked to participate in an exhibit called Babae to remember a great Philippine artist Petrona Nakpil and showcasing female artists.
Thank you year 29… You have been the most interesting year of my life. Year 30, I'm ready for you!:)

To take your chance in the thick of a rush, with firing all about,
Is nothing so bad when you've cover to 'and, an' leave an' likin' to shout;
But to stand an' be still to the Birken'ead drill

An' they done it, the Jollies — 'Er Majesty's Jollies —

This can also extend to other crewmen, usually so they can oversee and direct passengers onto the lifeboats first. The latter often goes hand in hand with "Women and children first" (leading to jokes where adult men dress in drag or like children). A common twist in comedic works is for the captain to appoint someone else captain and let them go down with the ship. Sometimes the new captain then uses the "promotion" to reassign the old captain as captain, often going back and forth repeatedly until they both go under. Originally came about because of maritime salvage laws - if the ship was abandoned by all the crew but didn't sink, anyone who got on board could claim the ship and contents as salvage. So a senior officer had to remain until it was clear that the ship really was going to sink (or at least be the last to leave) to prevent embarrassing losses of cargo and/or repairable ships. In many cases, the captain goes down with the ship because he would face major disgrace if he didn't—especially if the ship is only sinking because of his screw-up. Because, of course, Space Is an Ocean this also applies to starship captains. Even though there's no (literal) "down" for them to go... No relation to Die for Our Ship.

I've spent two days thinking about Arsenal's loss to Man U and frankly, I can't come up with anything brilliant to say. I can say that while the result was terrible, Arsenal played better than I've seen them play against Man U in a decade. I can also say that Arsenal really should outplay this Man U side because this is the worst Man U side I've ever seen. But in the end, as good as Arsenal were, the same old problems haunt this team and they couldn't get over the mental and physical challenge to win against the old enemy.
If Manchester United were bad last year, shorn of their most experienced and best defenders (Evra, Vidic and Ferdinand) and with a midfield which started Marouane Fellaini along side Michael "passmaster" Carrick, this is arguably the worst Manchester United team I have ever seen. Their one saving grace is that they have a wealth of attacking talent in di Maria and Wayne Rooney.
This is a Man United team with no midfield and no defense and Arsenal exploited that beautifully. Carving open two glorious chances that should have won Arsenal the game. The first was a nifty through ball from Ox to Welbeck. Welbeck shot straight at de Gea.
The second was from Welbeck to Wilshere and that one is probably going to go down in the Torres Misses Hall of Shame. Wilshere was one-on-one versus de Gea, with the entire goal open in front of him, and he even had Alexis wide open on his left. Wilshere even got de Gea to commit and go down early. But he shot straight into the keeper. It was a dreadful shot and left Alexis gesticulating furiously.
A few seconds later, Wilshere should have won a penalty. It was a clear foul in the box with referee Mike Dean standing yards away. But the thing is, Mike Dean wouldn't award a penalty if a Man U player chopped off an Arsenal player's legs with a katana. He'd just make that silly scrunched up face, waggle his finger, and tell the player to get up.
I joke but it's actually not funny. He basically did exactly that when McNair tried to take Jack Wilshere's ankle off. Man U did what Man U does now, they started fouling Arsenal and targeted Jack Wilshere. McNair ended Jack's night and gave him a few weeks in a boot with a horrible lunging tackle that was lucky it didn't leave Wilshere's ankles hanging by a thread.
The sideline official in that video has a perfect view of the tackle, he doesn't waive the flag and Mike Dean doesn't blow for a foul. Man U fouled the opposition's best player out of the game. But they weren't done there. A few minutes after taking Wilshere out of the game, Foullani shoved Gibbs into Szczesny, injuring both players. Instead of calling the foul or even stopping play because there's an Arsenal player down on the ground in the penalty area who just got punched in the head, Mike Dean waved play on and Gibbs scored an own goal as he was laying on the pitch.
I don't know, guys. I don't want to believe that there is a referee conspiracy against Arsenal because that would mean that the games are not real. That would mean that the sport is not real. But I can't help but think that there is something seriously wrong when I see how Arsenal are treated by the officials.
And once Arsenal were behind, they did the thing that Arsenal now do: damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead. Predictably, Man U scored the second (and could have had a third) off a breakaway. Alexis gave the ball away but the giveaway was on the edge of the 18 yard box. From there Fellaini made one pass to di Maria, who passed to Rooney and the hapless Nacho Monreal was left scuttling after the ball with hundreds of yards of space around him.
Where were the Arsenal defenders? Where was the Arsenal midfield? Where is the universe?
And so, an unfamiliar Arsenal performance, one in which Arsenal actually did dominate the game, had a familiar result, a loss coming from the opponent fouling and Arsenal playing recklessly to get back into the game.
What really frustrates me is that Robin van Persie should be suffering the choice he made to go to United but instead, every time we face our old captain, he gets the last laugh. It's unbearable. It's like finding out that your last girlfriend had herpes, via a text message that says "you should get checked", after the breakup.
Van Persie left Arsenal in a huff, saying he didn't like the direction the club was taking. He then won a League title and that seemed to justify his betrayal. But since that singular season he's been laboring on two very poor United sides and has lost out on Champions League football. And Arsenal have been spending money, buying Özil and Sanchez from Real Madrid and Barcelona. Arsenal are on the up and Man U are on the down. We should be able to lord this over him but instead he gets to smile and say "we played a good game and got all three points, that's all that matters".
It's all dreadfully familiar. Last season I wrote this:
And I know that we lost to Man U yesterday, in that heartbreaking fashion that we do with them: by being a bit timid in the first half, letting Nevra* and Rooney push us around, getting caught on a corner, and then having to watch as a traitorous backstabber dry-humps Wayne Rooney in front of 70,000 of their tourist fans.
They push us around, the refs let them get away with it, we squander several good chances, the ref doesn't call a penalty, they injure two Arsenal players with fouls, they score on an error, we commit too many players forward, they score the winner on a breakaway.

How the Water Feels: Stories
Southern Methodist University Press, 2002 - Fiction - 183 pages
"In "The Year Five," Nguyen Van Trinh, one of the boat people who left Vietnam after the war, is living in a squalid refugee camp on Bidong Island. He is as powerless to repress his sorrow over his daughter's death as the Malaysian administrative chief of the island is to find out who carved Trinh's name into the wooden plank in the staff eating hut." "In "The Public Spectacle," Bridget and Owen Greef, two misfits, have been growing apart because of his obsession with chess and Bobby Fischer. They both must come to terms with the fact that they are - as a couple and as individuals - permanent outsiders." "In "Anything You Want, Please," Peace Corps trainee Reuben Gill is led into the malevolent presence of long-term "jungle junkie" (and Peace Corps volunteer) Geronimo Donaldson's companion monkey. In this alien place, Gill finds himself struggling against his own worst impulses, beginning to doubt the strength of his commitment to his stateside fiancee."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
