28,924 pass Philippine nursing boards

Some 28,924 nursing graduates have passed the Philippine nursing licensure exams conducted on December 2007. The oath-taking of the new nurses will be on March 17 and 18, 2008 at the SMX Convention Center in the Mall of Asia.

My Calling

There's a bit of excitement and anxiety being caught in-between careers. It can't be helped if my heart sputters over a past life--one that is full of stories of people, places and events--and then leaps in anticipation over a new chosen path--one where a caring heart takes precedence over everything else.

Leaving journalism, which I breathed for a little over than 10 years is neither easy nor difficult. There were no sleepless nights; there were no drinking sprees either. Making a choice to embrace nursing as a new career came naturally like waking up in the morning and brushing your teeth. Making the decision is like finding yourself and listening to your heart the first time--it just grabs you by the soul and you realize where your place is in this world.

Yet even though I've already lost my soul to my new career, my veins bleed a little for the life I used to wake up to the past decade. My fingers ache, part from the repetitive stress of typing on a computer keyboard, but more for the words that I used to weave for a story.

So, today, I'm letting myself bleed a little, ache a little for the cause that has opened my eyes to the world. For tomorrow, my heart races to start a promising new cause, one that would usher me to embrace the world.
