Balik Tanaw: Favorite 90's Memories Part 3

Man, was the idea of posting memories from the 90's a total baloney? I guess not.

Needless to say that most people can to relate to it. There are still fun remembrances that others can hardly recall until someone is there to remind it to them. I tell you it's not false modesty if I say posting this is not all about gaining more traffic to my site. It's more about bringing out something relevant to my readers. And given  my druthers, I'd like to hope this post will serve as reference soon when 90's will already become a distant decade in the past.

Let's begin our time travel for the third time.

Where did I stop in Part 2?

Ahh here!

Morning TV Shows

                  "Bawat bata may tanong, 'ba't ganito, ba't ganon?' Hayaang buksan 

                ang isipan sa Science o Agham. Tayo na! Sa sineskwela! Tuklasin na-

                   tin ang siyensya. Buksan ang pag-iisip. Tayo'y likas na sayantis."

Aahh, those lines play a huge part of my childhood. I still watch this every weekday mornings on Knowledge Channel whenever I have the chance to.

Naaalala mo ba yan? Batibot! :D

Eh yung mga kanta ng At Iba Pa??? :D

Remember Porfirio of Epol Apple? Eh si kuya Bodjie who was formerly in Batibot, too? :D

            Do you remember this also? Hit play so you'll know :D I'm totally not a math junkie but I knew I'm going to enjoy it someday just by listening to this :D

   Ikaw ang unang nag-buo ng bayang pilipino. Ikaw ang 

      unang lumaban sa pananakop ng dayuhan. Ikaw ang nag-sindi 

        ng ilaw. Ikaw and nag-bigay ng liwanag sa kahulugan at katwiran, 

        sa halaga ng kalayaan! 

 Bayani! One of my faves! My nationalistic hint is awaken. Kinikilabutan pa rin ako. This honestly influenced my love for learning Philippine History kahit pa ba madalas nakakalula magbasa ng mahahabang narratives. Kayo, anong episode ang naaalala n'yo? :D

I even posted an entry that entirely talks about another sensible TV show, Hiraya Manawari. Click here in case you haven't read it yet.

                  Hiraya Manawari! Aaahhh childhood! Agree when it was said that not all youth experienced

childhood with these TV series.

Remember Balt and Mithi?? How about listening to that vid below

                           Could not find any better video for the opening. But I surely miss watching this.

           Still aired on Knowledge Channel. You can check on their website to know the time slot.

          Mga kwentong mula sa pahina. Mga kwentong panitikan. That's how I describe this TV series. :) :)

Nighttime TV Shows

Familiar lang ang linyang yan for sure! :D

"Magandang gabi bayan!" a la Noli de Castro haha :D

A trusted news program already! Ever since the 90s :)

There was Balitang K long before Rated K! :D

Kung may Kuya Kim ngayon, noon merong Ka Ernie Baron along the famous line,
"Pag walang knowledge, walang power" :)

And of course! Who will ever forget?? Go go go Power Rangers! hahaha :D

Whoa! Si Alpha who is better known by kids as "ayayayay" hahaha :D

Real crimes, real people, real story. Calvento Files! I so remember this!!!

Dramas oh dramas!!! hahaha

How did it feel when Ted Failon already starts to say "Hoy gising!" haha :D

How about the Mexican novelas that invaded Phil TV before Korean novelas did? haha:D

The World Tonight! My favorite late night news program (I was 5 and young but I'm honest if I'd say I really watch this back then) I remember Mr.Teddy Locsin breaking the opening line, "I'm Teddy Locsin,Jr. and this is The World Tonight" I loved that!

Oka Tokat (Takot Ako) Creepy TV series every Tuesday nights in the 90s :)

And one of the most sensible TV shows, Wansapanataym! :) Sometimes it makes me cry when I listen to the opening song again :) :) A very good show to watch,aired every Sunday evening (just before kids go back to school on the weekdays)

     Napanood niyo din ba yung movie??? :) Si Barbiel!!!Who made known the line "Oh my gulay!" hahaha

And here's to all the 90s evening filled with laughter...

Balik Tanaw: Favorite 90’s Memories Part I

I’m quite recollective. There is a slight effusive retrospection when people talk about childhood and the memories that came with the things in the 90’s.

As I dispose some personal items that seemed forgotten over the years, it’s amazing how these things still manage to give me resolute pleasure. I’m not yet sure if facebook, or twitter and the worldwide web can do the same a decade from now.

These memory skewers just come abundantly in my mind, hailing to be perpetuated in this post. So here’s a fleeting look down memory lane; a sweet treat to yesteryears.

The Porma

Sooo grade school!! Who else wrapped her hair with these Butterfly Clips?!

Overalls with the straps down! Haha :D

Who went for the six pockets??? :D

And the Hip Hop Fashion. Kala mo cool ka na noh? haha :D

How about the oversized tees?

And the neon leggings? Gawd I hated wearing that before! :D

At ang pag-uso ng Gypsy Tops

at Turtlenecks 

And who can forget the Penny Loafers?

Umamin ka, you also cried out for a pair of Islander Sandals!Pow!

And the Habagat Haversack na madalas manakaw sayo dahil mahal! Kaboom! :D

How about this look? Haha :D

Aha! The Spaghetti Straps Tank Tops

And the epic Bandannas! Gang or Grunge? :)

Fun Facts About Your Daily Life!

This is a sublime and clever re-entry into blogging after all the seriousness in my previous posts. I for sure took you a little solemn-bound with all the ideas I have presented in the past few weeks. But this time, I want to share with you something more entertaining. Don’t you think we deserve some time to let loose?

My first two weeks back to hospital was never that easy even if going back there this time means that I’m no longer a student but a holder of the same license almost "everyone else"  has. The call out to find a steady employment in the hospital summons an even greater problem than just passing the licensure exam. 

Just this July, another set of thousands of nursing graduates battled with the five hundred questions of the Nursing Board Examinations.  Soon enough, thousands again will be joining the jobless crowd in the country.

Despite having the license to work in the hospital, having a sufficient experience would still count. And as a new kid on the block of the nursing profession, I feel the pressure to double my effort in terms of knowledge, skills, and attitude.

I am one of the “lucky” few who were accepted to work as volunteer in one of the level 4 hospitals here in the city. Before we were set out to the different areas of the hospital, batches of assorted policies were oriented to us. It was very demanding of our time yet helpful. 

There is one topic that reminded me that nursing isn’t limited to taking the vital signs, administering medications, and other clinical procedures but making certain that the hospital environment is conducive to every patient’s healing. I’m specifically talking of the Waste Management Program of the hospital where I’m in.  

Constituted in the program is the Infection Control.  The Infection Control Nurse of the hospital encouraged me personally when she presented the topic with humor but with so much sense. She said in her lecture that there are 8 fun facts about infection control:
