"So I am planning to be a Nurse Assistant because from my other thread I mentioned I am dumb as a brick so I need a easy high security job heh heh.. How is the market demand for a nurse Assistant and is being a Nurse Assistant easier than being a computer scientist?"
Since I cannot muster up the courage to reply to this post at a certain forum, I will list my reasons why I negative rep'd this post.
First of all, this person mentions being dumb, and planning to becoming a Nurse's Assistant. You do not correlate both of those together. Nurses Assistants are not dumb. Maybe the path to be one is simple and straightforward, but the actual work is tiring mentally and physically. You have to think quick at the spur of the moment. Dumb people make bad decisions. Bad decisions lead to ineffective care. Not only that, but along with your intelligence, you must cope with being put down all the time. You just cannot make a mistake in care, and one minor mistake can cost awfully a lot.
The mental fatigue comes from the degredation of your own ego. If you have an egotistical personality deep inside, you might feel hurt. The Nurse's Assistant is at the very bottom of the status chain, and you won't feel prestigious in the team. You won't feel the power, even though their role is an important part. You'll also have to take shots from the clients themselves. Of course, don't take anything personally, but still hurt hurts for awhile. You'll get your hand slapped for being too slow. If you were dumb you can't take it. My definition of dumb may be different, but mine is that dumb people complain and lose their cool quickly.
The physical tiredness should be self explanatory. All the work is physical, walking around for eight hours, lifting, talking. And you use your five senses in a difficult way. You smell the poop. You touch the poop AND the butt. You SEE the poop. You hear HEEELP HEEELP HEEELP left and right. And you TASTE the bitterness of disparage.
It takes a lot of love and understanding to be an efficient caregiver. Time management, good attitude, and everything else at their best, I believe, creates the best nursing team. The goal is to improve the person's health to their best possible condition, and you do that by being strong and taking whatever your teammates or clients throws at you. Please don't coming into this just for wanting to work just for a high security or calling themselves dumb going into this job. Sorry, but your attitude just perks me, especially going into a field like this one.

Yup, not replying because he's, or she's, not even asking about a review or whatever I said. Only asking for the demand. Thus my reply would be quite irrelevant.
Hell yeah, standing up for myself! I guess I should have said it nicer though. If this person asking was a client however, I would say it nicer of course.

bad weather.
I feel so lost again. Perhaps its the weather. It has been cold and numb lately. Maybe its my diet. I ate chicken with macaroni and cheese.
Or perhaps it was yesterday's event. There are just some people that irritate me. The people who irritate me tends to be those that are rude and less understanding. Those who don't understand sarcasm. And its my fault for making my sarcasm sound too sincere, as in I'm really stupid. Maybe I am stupid since I talk sarcastically on impulse as well. My humor has got to stop.
It's not only that but I feel like I have a reputation to feel perfect in every way and I'm not fulfilling it. I found myself missing the strange people that actually do understand yet not wanting to be around them. And I've wondered, why do I always repel myself from people who seem weird. I like people who just gets it. And those are the people I'm willing to help. I abhor losing my temper at the most inappropriate times, and I did, but I did not say anything bad. I was a little shaken up. That's what got me thinking. If I get shaken up now, how much will I be shaken up when I'm with children? I've been shaken up with them before. I should stop trying to get them to think of how I'm thinking though. I have to understand them so that I flip to their page instead of them flipping to mine I guess.
How come I see people my age as kids? I love adults, the elderly, and children. The people I don't like the most are my age (even though I can't really tell how old they are, they just look like a high schooler).
Then I thought about love. It's amazing how a strange person can understand me just by looking at me for half a second. I guess most people's problems are the same as everyone else's, which helps connect the world.
Nothing has meaning except for the meaning we choose to give it. That stood out to me, I wonder why it's so difficult to live life with a meaning. Guess I have to give my life its meaning. Why am I catering to others instead of myself? Why do I dream of becoming rich and successful and envied or whatever when I really don't? What should I follow? Then I stumbled upon another quote, that its how we act to our thoughts that matters most. I guess I'm doing that okay. But I can't help but feel a bit down.
I did almost everything to feel a bit better actually. Got home, ate. Played MapleStory with my brother and best friend. Went to sleep. Woke up feeling bad again. Played some basketball. Felt relieved a bit. And after writing now I feel a bit better actually.
Was that all I have been thinking of last night? There's the load of work I have to do, and my future plans. I think what hurts me most is figuring out what I want to do but having doubts that stand right in front of me. I really think they can be fixed but it'll be extremely difficult. I have to stop that shaking and I have to remain calm and normal. No jokes.
A few days ago... I felt a draft. A draft of a sign that's begging me to fulfill what I wanted to do but having doubts that it'll end up with disaster. It's been a year but I was amused of how this turned out to be:
I have the same eyes as her too. LOL I used my random haircut coupon I got for free from a quest. I didn't take a screenshot of how I look exactly like her except for the hair color, but I'm okay with that.
Anyways, as an attempt to not think about her, I dressed up in disguise.
Disguise one, the glasses.
Disguise number 2- the helmet.
I prefer disguise 1 though. I like being reminded of her actually. This was timing for that May 8 anniversary break l0l. And I guess this is the true closure in that it has ended and I'll do my best to not think about it anymore. Notice my transition from her to it now.
I haven't properly introduced my Thunder Breaker though. It's Exbiodia, created when the Cygnus Knights first arrived. I laid her to rest when I started another Cygnus, my Wind Archer. Now because of the Empress's blessing and Xeno's need for more accuracy, and with Empresses blessing increasing the accuracy of Xeno, I've woken Exbiodia up and now I'm level 71.
Wow blogging releases so much steam. I have to keep this up and remember that blogging is another option and it is a must do for everyday.
I hope I win that scholarship. I'm having doubts now since I'm not informed. I need to get a new DS because my fold part of my DS Lite is broken... it needs to rest as well. It's getting tired.
Edit: I think I've been only feeling bad because I have been procrastinating on my blog. Yup, that's it!

one week from today...
Is the "</3" anniversary. She said she never wants to talk to me again. I said I loved her. Thump thump thump...

My own judgement time will be in a week from now. Til' then, I'm only going to say that I did not finish Final Fantasy VIII, and I've started a file on Xenogears. This line of thought has nothing to do with the subject but it probably does because I might be playing this game as well, one week from today. Maybe I can finallylay my opinion to rest, er I mean STFU of my beliefs that love exists. The evidence is there, but I'm just stupid. So stupid, and I'll wait another week, that final week until I know for real, that this belief is verified by my own set of conditions. This has started stupid. And this will end stupid.
I've started playing MapleStory again, for just a little bit. My friend is finally leveling her main character, and I partied with her for less than 30 minutes, so it was a fun kickback hour... time... less than an hour time, whatever. Moment, yeah that was the word I was trying to think of and yeah I think while I type because my thoughts come and go so fast. In real life my mind goes so fast that my voice can't keep up resulting in a: asdfjkl;, asdfjkl;. Notice that I repeat the same sequence of combined letters. Anyways back to MapleStory, I've still yet to attempt a screen shot on MS with this new computer.
Played basketball against my bro for the first time since Christmas. I was literally making all my shots, plus getting back on defense. I think I'm so good and that I can beat anyone. l0l. But whatever, I need more stamina though, and that's where DDR comes in.
It's Spring time in Pokemon. I need three more, Buneary, Driftloon, and Glameow, which I'd cop in the dream world. I currently have 6500 dream points. I need 1k more to be able to find them.
That is all.
PS Liberal Arts majors look WEIRD. I am starting to feel offended. And more superficial than I thought.

Getting Away
I had a bad dream last night, and I was almost in tears, that Spurs lost to the Memphis Grizzlies. Spurs are not my favorite team, and neither do I hate the Grizzlies. So when I woke up I was kind of dazzled as to why I felt that way. After watching the game, that dream became a reality, except I did not cry, but I felt really saddened. It's not because I wanted them to win, that I felt sad, but it's because they were the top seed against the last seed in the first round of the playoffs. I've watched them play and work so hard, reaching the top. Knowing that they could possibly be the champion. I looked up to their work ethic... only to falter towards where it really counts. I'm sad that I'm scared of failing. Trying so hard, accomplishing so many things as life goes on. But towards the end, failing on the thing that mattered most. That's why I woke up, almost in tears. Working so hard and failing in the end is what I'm afraid to do. It happened once, in a love story that won't leave my mind and heart, I thought pain would strengthen me. I think it does, it's not making me any weaker. But the anxiety it causes is what brings me a bit down. It's making me terrified. And it's not an at the moment scared, like when you know your presentation is coming up in one minute. It's the scare and worry of the future and uncertainty that would last so long without a set time.
I think my stamina is going down. I couldn't pass Hard Core of the North on 9 foot on ITG today. I need to eat balanced meals, I know I'm lacking greens and fruits.
I finally passed the Multi Battle subway. My Sapphire Battle Tower team that got me 60+ consecutive wins did the job. Salamence and Metagross, both with completely wrong natures and IVS (Salamence has Attack in BLUE), but they got the job done nonetheless.

The girl who was hitting on me who I have no feelings whatsoever is in the same clinical as me now. I'm scared to death. Her background, she is scary, in her upper twenties, really hood, talks really hood, and is shunned by the normal people, and it seems like she shuns them first with her natural angry loud blunt attitude. I used to look forward to clinical knowing that I'm with a good group of people and away from her. I used to be okay having two days of class with her, and now it's four. She's nice and all, and she smiles when she sees me and I feel good that I'm being nice to someone who has problems but I don't like having real connections to people in general. Let alone I want to be with people that I feel like I want to be with. I'm that selfish. Anyways, we didn't really hang out together due to me talking to the other group members. When class ended, I went to the bathroom hoping she would have left already. I exit the bathroom and she's still there. Oh shit. I said bye and smile, then I walked out the building, calling my mom to pick me up. Oh shit oh shit, mom said she was having a haircut. She can't pick me up.Fuck fuck fuck I know that this would take forever. the fastest I ever did, across the street, cars were passing by. I had to get to the other side, to sit down behind the sign on the bench chairs invisible to her eye that would be in the other street. I started walking, unaware of a car in the right side. It stopped instead of moving, and I was pretty hesitant because I wanted that car to go first, but then I thought it's my turn since I already started crossing the street so it was my right of way. I rushed to the other side, thinking in fear. What if she pops her head out of the bushes oh shit oh fuck I don't want to be around her. And right then at that moment, I thought fuck being nice. It's hurting me and I'm scared to death. I realized I hate connections, as to why I probably have no close friends in the first place.
I'm okay with having no friends like that, but I'm really glad I have friends whom would let me pop into their lives once in awhile. And then leave, and come back. My friends are my friends forever, even if it means they aren't close. I'm glad that I helped her though, she would have probably never smiled in class, and she would have probably been kicked out if it wasn't for me. She praises me for helping her out, and I'm okay I did it. But ever since she started hitting on me, she crossed the line. Now I know how she must have felt, and I'm never going to be clingy ever again.
One of my team members is having relationship problems, in her mid forties. I guess the pains of love is so strong. I looked up to her for her sarcasm attitude and strength. I never knew she would falter out of the effects of "love." She's in the process of divorcing and she's seeing another guy who we're both skeptical about, and she says I'm right, after my analytical observations on what she said and she thanked me. I know she knows that he's no good but the heart easily overpowers the mind. I'm glad I can help a bit. And I'm glad that I like what I have said. She said the guy is nice, but he has all these other problems with the law and his other two wives. And my response? That everyone can be nice. And that it is SO easy to be nice. I think its true, and I felt good with this future hall of fame quote I have said.

Easter Accomplishment
I haven't watched a single Gundam series, but my dad purchased a Wing Gundam Zero MobileSuit XXXG-00W0 MG model at the airport. I built it on Easter, my first model ever. It was the one where you just have to snap the pieces together, no painting or gluing required. I enjoyed the construction process, and I might add it to my current plethora of novice level hobbies that I pursue. I already have a Gundam GP03S EFSF Attack use prototype Mobile Suit underway, as soon as my bro does whatever he needs to do with the box.

I had a strange dream that a balanced diet and exercise improves mental hygiene. Mental hygiene meaning being clean but feeling dirty. I have a slight obsession where I'd feel dirty even after taking a shower, which would bother me for the entire day until I take a shower, and when I'm bothered like that I could feel my moodiness.
You know what kind of quality I look for in girls now? Artsy girls! I want to bring her in to teach my future fifth grade class how to do some kind of art shit.

Easter 2011
I found an Aerodactyl while exploring the sky. I decided to cop it once I found out it was a female with Stealth Rock, rather than picking up the Hoppip, Sunkern, and Sentret I found prior to that meeting. I already have an Aerodactyl, but I thought about it, and I'd be getting a new Pokemon everyday anyways, why not just take my time and get Pokemon that looks cool? Anyways, Aerodactyl might be the last double I'd get since I only have seven boxes left. I actually need to own Hoppip, Sunkern and Sentret to fill up my Pokedex (Seen 641, own 636)
Beacuse of my inconsistencies in Reading Partners, I've agreed to become a substitute. I'm doing it out of my own charity, so my parents are a bit disappointed in me since I'm not getting paid. I think they'd rather have it that I drop it completely. I think I should, too, so I can focus on my CNA program. The anxiety of becoming a teacher now is officially killing me, and I HAVE to find ways to relax now. Pokemon isn't cutting it since my boxes are full and I don't want to release any Pokemon, and if I can't do that, how can I search for the right Pokemon with the right IVs? BTW, I'm leaving my DW Pokemon in the Entralink forest for now.
Nothing much has been happening, except I got motivation to build this Gundam my dad bought me from some place, as he went overseas for two weeks.
Anxiety of the future has been killing me. It really has. And I'm having my doubts of being a teacher. I'm getting pulled into nursing just because I love old people. Maybe I'll settle and be a CNA l0l. CNA with a Liberal Arts degree.

Not so Lost
I keep thinking that my past three years at college was unfruitful. I did not gain anything out of it, and my life wasn't progressing.
But no matter what happens, life progresses as time progresses.
College chapters:
1st year- Identity
Thinking what I want to do, but not really wanting to do it, and feeling empty.
2nd year- Love
It is what it is. Mind over heart.
3rd year- Resolution
Experiences with the elderly, rediscovering my passion for teaching. The solution to love.
Before, my depression was about what was currently happening to me. But now it's all anxiety and uncertainty of the future. Just gotta pound my chest and follow my schedule. Keepin my room clean and organized. Staying groomed.
and OMFG, just lost my 21st battle on Multi-Train, and it's not even super multi... only Durant left with like 1 HP in the end before it iron headed Sawk.
My team:
Hydreigon- Modest/Alert to Sounds- equipped with Expert Belt
DarkPulse/DragonPulse/FlameThrower/U-Turn, and
Garchomp- Lonely/Often Dozes off- equipped with Dragon Fang
Earthquake/DragonClaw/FireFang/Stone Edge
Hilda had a Reuinicleus or whatever it is, with Focus Blast, Psychic, and some other two moves that I forgot. And a Sawk with Earthquake.

That House.
Instead of writing about my past experiences at my first Clinical rotation, I will try my best to stay current. I can't relive the same feelings I have felt that would have enabled me write about my first Clinical rotation's experience, but I will remember it. And it's an experience that I would forever cherish in my heart.
A man has lost hope. He claims that he wants to die. Yet his presence has sparked my soul. The elderly may generally think that they do not have any purpose to breath, feeling incompetent to themselves and others. However, they are still people in my mind, and every single person can create an impact. People may have different views to live, like most of the people, and the elderly, in that their role in life is to raise their children, and work until their physically and mentally tired, or disabled by nature's will. I don't know what I'm saying anymore, but I think everyone has the right to live, no matter if they're disabled, evil, or crazy, or whatever. I enjoyed my time at this facility. It was so refreshing, interacting with people with dementia, and disabilities. It was a calming experience. It made me forget my personal troubles, even though I was having trouble at the facility, the disappearance of my own personal troubles exceeds normal trouble.
I got to experience real history. The elderly, this is everyone's final result that we can witness that will happen to us. We will get old. But we will still live, and we have to live our best. Being a CNA has reminded me that everyone needs help. Whether its the elderly, or young kids, everyone wants to be helped in life, and everyone wants to feel good. MV, my favorite, who I first fed, who was suffering from depression, was still living. Pushing after four years. Paralyzed. Waiting to die. Checking off "It is not wonderful to be alive." What do you do when it's not wonderful to be alive? Naturally, we can't kill ourselves, but we have to live somehow. During that time in between death and the ignition of depression, what do we do? I'm not trying to say that only certain people touch my lives, they all do. DT also said he wanted to die.
Before entering a resident's room, a picture of them, usually, of what they looked like when they were younger, accompanies the room number. Seeing their picture when they were younger was also a gift of fascination this facility offered. My first weeks in here, was truly emotionally draining. That these people, who say HALP, I NEeD TO PEE, IS THERE CAKE? , used to be out of this facility. They used to walk in the streets, and can comprehend what's around them, and are like everyone else. But they change. I wonder if people with dementia are really conscious, but it's just their outer self acting. And the true "person" really doesn't know what he's doing in the outer world, but inside, they feel the same as everyone else who isn't diagnosed with "dimentia".
Anyway, back to DT. I would feed him, and rub his back if he fell asleep while I was feeding him. I took him to the bathroom when he needed to go, answered his call lights even though my heart dropped. His family was there, his daughter and son one time, and he said IT'S MY BUDDY when I answered the call light. I felt so happy and good about myself that I was called his buddy. I felt like I was the only person who was doing the best to give the best possible experience. And maybe that's what I'm looking for in life. To do something no one else can do, so I try my best to be better than everyone, because no one can be better than the best, and ew I sound so arrogant, but it's the truth. I did the same sort of back rub in Bingo to O. She would always yell at people, spit at people, and throw her drinks at people. But she was sitting, closing her eyes and I rubbed her back while placing the chips on their respected spots on the Bingo board. And when I had to go, she said thank you. For breakfast, she eats in the room where unconscious looking-people go to be fed, yet she said thank you and smiled, which made me feel good. And I know that she was alert when I did what I did because she looked at ease when I calmed her.
I'll never forget Mr. C who needs to P. MV, who I can most relate to. Professor L and his History channel, MA and her thoughts, my buddy DT, O's smile and teeth. I did not see it, but one of my friends in my clinical would say that he would rub his wedding band, and smile or look sad. His wife died a few years ago. Nursing Homes are so emotionally draining. It's like a different world like no other. However, it's a satisfying sort of emotional draining. Like raising kids. I haven't raised kids yet, but we do it anyway no matter how tiring it is. I only regret not documenting my experiences every single time I've spent there. The new facility where I'm at, is alright. I'm getting used to it. I brought a lady milk, since she used the signal light to call and ask for milk, and she said thank you. But before that, me and my friend were talking to her. And that lady was hitting on me. Oh well.
Today's my brother's birthday, and I was invited to a friend's birthday tomorrow but I can't make it. GO NEW ORLEANS HORNETS.
A man has lost hope. He claims that he wants to die. Yet his presence has sparked my soul. The elderly may generally think that they do not have any purpose to breath, feeling incompetent to themselves and others. However, they are still people in my mind, and every single person can create an impact. People may have different views to live, like most of the people, and the elderly, in that their role in life is to raise their children, and work until their physically and mentally tired, or disabled by nature's will. I don't know what I'm saying anymore, but I think everyone has the right to live, no matter if they're disabled, evil, or crazy, or whatever. I enjoyed my time at this facility. It was so refreshing, interacting with people with dementia, and disabilities. It was a calming experience. It made me forget my personal troubles, even though I was having trouble at the facility, the disappearance of my own personal troubles exceeds normal trouble.
