I PASSED THE EXAM & INTERVIEW OF ATENEO GRADUATE SCHOOL FOR THE MBA IN HEALTH PROGRAM!!! I’M SO HAPPY!!!!!

[anneohdaw-blog]

DID I PASS?

So update, I took the admission exam for my PLAN D last weekend and it was not really as hard as I expected it to be. I bought a GMAT Comprehensive Book by The Princeton Review to cram REFRESH my memory and it was really helpful, especially if you’re like me who’s been out of school for a long time. But because the exam is time pressured, I don’t feel 100% confident with my answers. Also, it did not help that my body is drowning in caffeine since I only had 2-3 hours of sleep AND I decided to report to work to finish my report couple of hours before my scheduled exam. SHUNGA = ME!!

ANYWAY, I’ve been thinking non-stop about the results ever since I went out of the exam room. I keep checking my email and account portal for any update even though the facilitator told us that the results will be released after 4 WEEKS (given that you submitted the complete requirements). 

Syempre, hindi ko na naman nasubmit lahat ng requirements dahil BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH. EXCUSES.

So imagine my surprise when I got a call from the Admissions yesterday, asking if I’m available to be interviewed this coming Saturday. YES, OF COURSE I SAID YES!!! Even if I have work and reports to submit on Saturday, I told myself that I’ll just go straight to work after.  Hello, hindi naman siguro yun buong araw diba? hehe. Besides, my VACATION LEAVE na nga pala ako.

But I’m still actually confused if being granted an interview means I passed the admissions exam? I don’t really have an idea on their process and I have no means of confirming it whatsoever because most of the blogs and forums online I’ve searched are for the Standard Program, which mostly does not require an interview.

HAY. ANYWAY, I’LL JUST UPDATE AFTER THE INTERVIEW OR PROBABLY AFTER THEY POST THE RESULTS. I PRAY AND HOPE THAT I GET IN! WISH ME LUCK AND PRAY FOR ME! :)

Exams, Music, and Money??

Finally posting again! Okay, since I’ve been managing my time a bit better than the past couple of months, I’m back to updating my tumblr. What’s new?Hmmmm... nothing really interesting since I’m still thinking if I’ll pursue Med or not. I don.t have that much savings yet because #ADULTING. I’m also holding-off my traveling stints for a whie because I want to be financially free #wow HAHAHA!! It sounds so weird coming from me.

What else? I’m starting to like OPM now! I’ve been listening to some ~kewl~ bands such as Nathan & Mercury, St. Wolf, and my ultimate favorite as of the moment, IV of Spades. They’re so talented and such young souls! My old heart feels happy whenever I listen to them!

Aside from those boring personal stuff, I am presently reviewing (AGAIN!!) for an upcoming exam I’ll be taking in 5 days. Define CRAMMING. This is actually my PLAN D if ever MED SCHOOL will not push thru. Since my target medschool (PLAN A) will only start accepting applicants by the last quarter of the year, (hello, I am so bad at waiting; REPEAT TO SELF 10000xxxxx: PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE hay), my PLAN B is set for next year, and PLAN C currently have a TRO against the national exam that I need to take, I wanted to explore more options, resulting to PLAN D (OPTIONS, OPTIONS, OPTIONS!!).

I wasn’t actually aware that there’s such program and I’m glad I found out about it! Feeling both scared and excited at the same time because this is a bit different from what I’m currently engage in. But I do hope I get in! So ciao for now! gotta study!! Wish me luck!!

4 AM thoughts

I haven’t gotten that much sleep since 2019 started and I just can’t stop overthinking. I have this life plan in my head (being the control freak that I am) but it seems easier to lay it out than to actually act/do something about it.

I’ve been wanting to do this “thing” ever since I graduated from college but reality just makes it hard to achieve. I’ve actually taken the first step which is to take this exam, and I got a pretty decent grade despite having to balance 2 jobs and reviewing at the same time (well technically speaking, the full time job suffered because I’ve been skipping work to give more time on reviewing LOL).

Now that the results are out, I’m torn if I should pursue it or not. There’s really A LOT of things that I have to consider if ever — time, money, relationships, family, and age??? HAHA 😒

It’s a really HUGE step that would affect the people close to me, and I’m afraid that if I take the leap, I might not be able to sustain it.

Hay. Life’s way easier back then. ☹️

Uncertainties

It’s frustrating to wait,

Not knowing your fate,

To go on and not see what’s next,

And just hope and pray for the best.

But they say that waiting teaches humility,

And to bask in the glory of uncertainty,

Well I can’t help but overthink,

And it makes my heart sink,

Because it sucks to not have control,

On things that make you live more.

So now what I can only do is pray,

That He gives me strength to face each day,

To live and embrace the present time,

So that when I’m finally done waiting,

And the results are out there gleaming,

I can stand up and tell myself,

“You made it.”

SHOULD HAVE BEEN POSTED WAY BACK 2016. What's Up???

Edit: So I just got back my account after 3 YEARS HAHA since I’m so stupid and I forgot the password of the email I’m using for my tumblr account. This has been sitting on my drafts and I really can’t remember that I actually had this. Anyway, read up on me, venting with how my life was, 3 years ago.

I’m backkk!!! 🎉🎉 Work has eaten a big chunk of my social life (as if) and the crappy internet made me wayyyy more lazy in updating my tumblr. But I know I have to update for 2 reasons: 1)So I can overcome my commitment issues in life lol; and 2)to vent out stuff I don’t feel like sharing to anyone I personally know (funny ‘cause they’ll eventually know once they come across this site).

Anyhow, I’ll just give updates on my boring life para naman magkalaman yung tumblr ko. I’m currently working as a regulatory officer for a well-known cosmetic company (hint: #ParaSelfieReady) and I’m having mixed feelings about it. I’m actually learning a lot in terms of PH regulatory procedures and I’m excited to attend seminars to enhance my knowledge on the current updates in cosmetics. But gaaaah, the commute to work is EXCRUCIATING. I get to sleep for about 4-5 hrs EVERY.SINGLE.DAY. The heck. Although I benefit from my co-employees punctuality (read: No tardiness for 3 straight weeks HAH!🙋🙋), I’m relying on coffee to function well, which is bad for my system. Also, I’m turning to my old, introvert self again, not even joining any of them for lunch. I don’t know why (baliw lang) but recently, I’m trying my best to open up and assert my position and function in the office. Oh well, hassle.

---- NOW, IT’S A TOTALLY DIFFERENT STORY. WILL SAVE THAT IN ANOTHER POST.

Don’t let fear hold you back, warrior. It’s okay to be scared or nervous about something but that doesn’t mean you have to stop moving forward. Open yourself up to all the beautiful things life has to offer. Don’t be afraid of what other people will think, say, or do. Don’t be afraid to express yourself. Don’t be afraid to take the next step and walk your own path. Don’t be afraid to fall, and don’t be afraid to get back up and become your true and strongest self.
