emotional stress + alcohol = f*cked up

Okay, yeah i planned to get drunk and wasted…but not THAT wasted. Ending up in a hospital and may IV pa, eeeek. Not fun at all. Pero lesson learned na yun…masakit yung pagkainsert ng IV cath e!

We went to there to have breakfast, but even before sitting, I ran to the ladies, and wasn’t able to get up na. So they brought me to the clinic…and the next thing I know, I was brought to room 519 na. I was throwing up from morning til afternoon so I was brought to the nearest hospital…miserable talaga! Sakit pa nga ng IV site e..:(

As usual, di mawawala, patawang eksena. When the nurse was about to insert the butterfly na, todo tawaran and ekek kasi takot ako sa needles, etc, that everyone outside daw was laughing at me. Tapos I just replied, “I don’t care!”. I was like a 5-year old girl bwahaha! Pag usapang ospital at ako, naku.

I missed my bro’s bday tuloy, may family affair dapat…absent ako. Actually ang concern ko more on the food e. Sayang! Haha!

Anyways, thanks to my dear dear friends, for staying with me kahit na nagenjoy kayo sa spa w/o me. Boohoo. And i even missed the breakfast at Circles. Boohoo again! Basta SUPER DUPER THANK YOU for not leaving me lang kung san, and for not taking me home kasi lagot. To the staff of Makati Shangri la, for carrying me haha, for the wheelchair and special treatment teehee, esp to Joanne, the nurse at the clinic Grabe room 519, so memorable! And to Dra. Anna Liza Velasco, MD of Makati Medical Center.
