and then there was this other paper with i dont know. its was even spookier.. uhmm.. yeah, they may have the right or something to express themselves, (like me) but i guess that doesnt mean that they can discriminate people. and in case tehy havnt notice, was ese is there to do? they already mentioned everything. i mean, what does religion mean? is it some laws and regulations one has to be obliged to do. maybe a guidance, but i dont know. honestly, i think this is funny, but its insulting. have they even tried not just to look but feel the present situation in our country? practically speaking, i guess i would be backing out from this thing. whoever made that thing in, i guess he was just lost.. pity.. i know we are all sinners, nobody's perfect. but i think we can try to be ourselves, someone who's not perfect but doesnt discriminate others for their beliefs and for what they do..


blah-blah-blah.. just wanted to share this weird experience. aehehehehehehe

intra-uterine fetal death

remembering that im a nursing sutdent and would be exposed to different special areas, we had our chance of being exposed in the delivery room. (ooooh... the clit and stuff... eew...) well anyways, have you ever heard of the term IUFD? in means intra-uterine fetal death. meaning to say, the baby died in the womb, he never ahd the chance of seeing the world. ok.. it was our first time to see this situation. so, i did took all the chance to see this and appreciate the "natural" things. the baby's skin was soooo loose that even as my classmate wiped him very softly with a clean cloth, his skin would just peel. his eyes were soooo sad, and if you could only touch his skull... it was sooo soft as a water balloon.. he was soo small.... seeing this for the first time, we wanted it to be "Documented" so i grabbed my camera phone, but it was really weird. it seems it was moving in the screen and wouldnt even stay still. so i thought it was just my phone since it was always like that. i tried to borrow my classmate's phone.. at first, it said it doesnt have any space for the picture, so we deleted a lot of pictures, but it was still the same.. really weird.. so we decided to just let the baby rest in peace.. i guess he wanted his peace..




pretty weird, but i dont know... what do you think?
