Burj Al Arab @ Night

We often stroll along Jumeirah Beach at night, just looking at the glaring city lights and the fabulous sky scrapers which are lined up on the opposite side of the beach. One time when I was staring at the magnificent Burj Al Arab Hotel on the left side, the sailboat-shaped building was glimmering with different shades of color, and when it turned pink, I took a shot using my mobile phone. Though it was not much of a good shot, this photo is still my favorite coz I can call it my own. The awesome display of dancing lights will be stored in my memory forever.

More of JaM

This post is especially dedicated to one of my blogger friends, Rochelle, who specifically requested more photos of my one and only baby Jamjam. But I do hope you’ll all like it! Here are some new pix of her and some old ones which we took before I came here in Dubai.

During the wedding of one of my closest friends, Jinky & Doodz. She’s just gorgeous, and I so wanted to be with her, so I could play the proudest mama in whole wide world.

Tall and slender, just like me (hehehe way mupalag!)

At People’s Park, Davao City. Taken a day before my scheduled departure to Dubai. I remember this day to be too much emotional.

When we were still in each other’s arms, oh I miss the feel and smell of her every single day!

During her Christmas Party @ school. I’m so excited she’s playing Santa Clause that I personally made her outfit, I wanted her to be extra special that day, and I was not disappointed. Though I was so ill with guilt afterwards coz she had an asthma attack due to the feathers on her costume, damn feathers! But anyway she recovered quickly, thanks to my tender loving care LOL.

Thanks for spending some of your precious time to read this post. Come back again, mmmmmmmwah!

Welcare Hospital - Pediatric Ward

I always wanted to be around kids, I guess it's the maternal side of me. Kids are fun, active, lively, and sooo cute. But dealing with sick kids are altogether different. Sometimes I feel so sad about their conditions, and at times I get so irritated I just want to scream and leave them alone. Well it also depends with the patients and their significant others. But whatever their attitude is, I always maintain a professional relationship with them. That way I can give them the holistic care they deserve.

Anyway, working as a healthcare assistant is not that hard. These are some of my responsibilities in pediatric ward and NICU:

• Bedmaking (chambermaid ang feeling hehehe)


• Giving newspaper (pero di ko naga bike ha!)


• Checking if equipments (i.e. incubators, IV & Syringe Infusion pumps, refrigerators, etc.) are working


• Taking vital signs and plotting to chart


• Feeding premature neonates


• Responding to patient's call


• Regulating and discontinuing IV infusions


• Retrieving medications from pharmacy


• Maintaining sufficient ward and NICU stocks and supplies


• Sending specimen to laboratory and follow up results


• Ensuring that equipments are clean and ready to use

For 3 weeks I'd be on a 5-day/week 10hours/shift duty. My off is on a weekend (Friday & Saturday ilang weekend diri hehehe). Then after that 12 hours per shift na, 4 days a week akong work with day and night rotations.

So long mga frens, I'll just keep you posted. Miss you all!!!

Miramar Hotel & Apartment

This will be my home for at least 18 months. Standing high at 10 storeys, this building is equipped with complete amenities such as a Gym where you can work out to trim your body and a swimming pool to relax your tired muscles. It also have a 24-hour security as well as functioning alarm systems so safety is ensured.

I think I'm going to like it here. In fact I feel at home already.
