At this point I'm still on bliss and surely will stay this way for a long time. After months of almost-zero-nicotine, sober moments, early morning alarms, whole day school reviews, very late night self-reviews, 3-hour sleep, less quality time with bf ex-bf, loads of food, pounds of weight gained, well-defined eye bags, acute gastritis, and lot'f other stresses . . . it was all paid off. The things I needed to sacrifice and difficulties that I was into was not even half of the overflowing happiness happyness I'm in. Of course, fellow colleagues can relate with what I'm saying.
Take it from me, the whole pre-board, board, and post-board exam process was really stressful. The anxiety that almost made my heart pop right out from my chest was effin' crazy. A week before the exam itself I haven't really decided to take it. I always ask myself if I'm ready to face this challenge or I'll just step back and take the board exam next year. There was a point when I almost lost my faith and confidence that I cried the whole afternoon and skipped the review for OB-Gyne. But, God is so decided to let me face this challenge and sent some angels to give me strength and to support me all the way. These angels 'slash' people I love of course never failed.
God love me that much that He gave me a nice venue (UST-Engineering Bldg.) to take my exam and some nice proctors. I answered each Nursing Practice Exam consisting of 500 questions all in all with the best of my ability and having Him guide me as I shade those circles. It was a big relief after shading the last number and I felt worried at the same time after passing my test paper that I went straight to Quiapo Church to pray that if I could save and help people be cured He should let me pass. Otherwise, He then should let me fail.
I almost cried when I saw my name listed
there. And my dads' nose bled because of excitement (yes, you read that right). Everything I worked hard for for four years was all worth it.
I am thanking my family, friends, and ex-lover for all the support, prayers, and strength that they unconditionally gave. And of course, my Big Boss who never cease to bless and back me up every time I felt weak.
My super friend said that this might be the good thing that awaits me after that
bad thing that happened. Hmm.. Isn't it too soon? Heh. Oh well. Life goes on.
Now, it'll be another chapter. I'm thinking of what my future will look like years from now. What do you think?=)
