Great job for sounding the call of nature alarm with perfect timing! Thanks to my ureter which can only hold so much!

Earlier this morning, I was awoken from my slumber by the urgency of bladder fullness. It was 11am at such time. It was still quite an early time for me to awaken for a day in which I have no class or test to attend. Or so I thought...

I decided to go to the CR and relieve the pressure upon my bladder. As I was returning to bed, I noticed that the message alert light of my phone was blinking which meant that I had unread text messages. I picked up my phone and saw that there were indeed two unread messages in my inbox.

I decided to read them.

The first message was: Dudes! Wala na daw exam kay Ma'am Corcega. Di daw nia mahahabol tapusing gawin ung exam ngayon.

I drowsily just shrugged it off because I knew that it was not necessarily for me. It was just a text pass and I was not affected by it in the first place.

Now for the second message: Pucha! Meron daw uling exam lahat kay Ma'am Corcega! Ang labo talaga..

I was not taken aback by the message because I already knew that I was not affected by this examination thing.

I was about to drop my phone back and return to my peaceful sleep when an impulse of rereading the message came upon me.

Pucha! Meron daw uling exam LAHAT kay Ma'am Corcega! Ang labo talaga..

I overlooked the word "lahat" which meant that everyone was included. I panicked and immediately called up our professor who was the course coordinator for this subject, N181 Nursing Leadership and Management.

She confirmed the news. It turned out that THE LIST was only applicable to the 4/5 or 80% of the final examination. Everyone, even the exempted people was to take the remaining 20% of the finals.

Waaaaahhhhh! I became fully awake by such news. The realization that I was going to take an exam which I hadn't been able to review even a single word was nerve wracking.  I was fidgeting because it was pass 11am. The test was supposed to start at 1pm and I was still in Paranaque! So good luck if I will be able to arrive on school by that time!

Yes! So nice such situation was huh!

I quickly took a bath and rushed to school. I arrived at UP Manila at about 1:20pm. Good thing the test had not started yet. I was supposed to review for the exam but the urge to loaf around and chit-chat with classmates and friends, was stronger.

So yeah, I took the exam without reviewing. Nice huh!

Good thing though, the exam questions where just like the ones which were asked in the previous test. So yey! For a lazy boy like me! Haha!!!

***************

Group ALAB (All-Stars) had a group date at the Mall of Asia this afternoon after the exam. We had lots of fun coloring the place mat at Burgoo where we ate dinner, courtesy of the birthday celebrants/celebrators (?) Manessa Ferrer, Jeremy Lo and Ayin Quintin. Thanks guys! Sobrang nabusog kami! 'till next time! Haha!

We also had our group picture taken at a studio. The photos were really nice! I'll upload them as soon as I get my hands on those files.

Go Group A!!!! We are Alab-ing! Haha!

After much wait and all the agony of uncertainty, The Eian Chronicles presents THE LIST:

*This list had been edited so that instead of it being a Final's list, it has become an Exemption List. Meaning, if you find your student number here, you should be happy because you are EXEMPTED from the final examination on N181 Nursing Leadership and Management.

To all the people who got exempted, Congratulations!!! Great job, guys and gals!

For those who shall take the finals, do not despair, it is not the end of it all. It does not mean that you failed. It just says that you were not able to reach the cut off.

Kaya yan! You can do it! Toxic nga lang pero kaya yan!

Thanks for those who stayed up and followed this live update on THE LIST. Until next time!

This has been Eian Sy, saying good morning to everyone! 'till next time!

Stay tuned for further developments.

Only here, LIVE, at The Eian Chronicles!!!

THE LIST has arrived.

Please standby for the details.

Only here, LIVE, at The Eian Chronicles!

Well, if other people have an entry which has the same title, I will have my own version as well.

As of the moment, many 3rd year, Batch 2009, University of the Philippines College of Nursing students are awaiting the verdict on their fate. They are waiting for THE LIST. This list contains the names of the people who shall take the final examination for our N181, Nursing Leadership and Management subject.

This list shall be facilitated through our Batch Head, Jonas Balneg who is also intently waiting for this list. As of the moment of writing, many from Batch 2009 are currently waiting online for the list's arrival. This list is causing quite a big fuss for us third year students.

Let me give you an update.

Here are the facts:

1. The 3rd exam for N181 was held last Monday.
2. The Finals will be tomorrow, March 27, 2008 at 1:00pm. This shall be held at Sotejo Hall, UP College of Nursing, Ermita, Manila.
   
3. THE LIST is ready. But our professor is still unable to send this list because she hasn't arrived home.
4. According to our professor, there are 30 names listed on such list.
5. THE LIST is not an exemption list. It is a list of the people who shall take the finals. In short, no one wants to be in it.
6. The exemption grade is at least 2.50. So if one is not in the list, it does not mean one failed. It just means one did not reach the minimum grade.
   

So who's in and who's not?

That we shall find out.... Soon.

Only here, LIVE, at The Eian Chronicles!

Come back in a few moments!

It is really frustrating when you have so many ideas for a blog entry yet when you have the chance to put them into actual writing, you forget them.

This has happened to me for soooo many times already!

In my daily life, I always find something worth bloggin' about. But the idea always tend to slip away when I already have the chance to make them "actual" blog entries.

This might be the result of much battery my good ol' brain has to endure in its everyday functions as a UPCN student. The toxicity it must work with is like..... hmmmmm... (frightening thoughts)..... *shivers* Haha!

To remedy this thing, I should start writing down key word or key topics I want to blog about as soon as they pop out of my head.

I remember my Dad telling me this quote every time I had forgotten to do something he had ordered me to do: "The faintest ink lasts longer than the most brilliant mind."

I think I should follow my Dad's "broken record" advice to me... Hmmmm... I think it will be good for my brain cells too.... So.... Hmmmm...
