Keep The Passion Burning!

June 3rd, 2009 janzynn may Posted in Business & Finance, Career & Education, Computer, Entertainment, Health, Science & Technology No Comments »

Creativity runs in our family. My mother is a retired preschool and grade school teacher and my father used to design or remodel cars or any vehicles in his auto shop. Of course, teachers dealing with small kids must be very artistic and resourceful in order to get the children’s attention. Designing or remodeling cars also requires a unique talent in art to do so. Luckily, my siblings and I inherited our parents’ talents. Since I was a kid, I had always loved drawing. I used to join in art competitions, poster-making contests, and cartoon editorials in our school paper. When I was in secondary school, I practiced drawing faces of real people using charcoal and sometimes, only ordinary lead pencils. Then, I tried painting using oil pastels, then water color, and eventually, I learned how to use poster paints neatly. I enjoy mixing different hues and creating a new color which matches my imagination so perfectly! I like to paint sceneries and flowers, but I find it hard to make an abstract painting. I also love to draw anime characters like Japanese Manga.

Nonetheless, I have not painted any portrait for over four years, not a single one. So, tomorrow, I’ll rush to the mall and grab a new set of painting materials so I can get started. I’d like to check if I still have the talent. I thank my friend for reliving my passion in painting and drawing again. He revived my passion in Art. Like what he said, I will not let the passion in Art die inside me.

Life of a Graveyard Shift Nurse

March 14th, 2009 janzynn may Posted in Health, Science & Technology No Comments »

My patient is now back in his work and has no more complaints of abdominal pain recurrence. I couldn’t get his final diagnosis because I couldn’t read the physician’s handwriting, neither the ER nurse. The patient was diagnosed with “dyspepsia”.

The basic function of a nurse is to conduct thorough assessment not only at the time the patient has complaints, but throughout the entire shift. That is to monitor the patient’s condition, sick or well. As an initiative, I assessed the said patient thoroughly. Part of which is the gathering of necessary information that will be useful and of great importance in the continuity of nursing care delivery or in quality nursing management. Upon the patient’s complaint of no relief from the antacid, further assessment was made and an ongoing nursing management was rendered.

In my observations, I can see that the patient’s condition was aggraviated and it was confirmed when the patient verbalized that the pain became more intense and that it made him weaker. Since we have no doctor-on-duty that night, I advised the patient to consult a doctor at once in order to seek medical advice and for him to undergo thorough evaluation. The patient agreed to go to the hospital and since he had no significant others around, I ushered him the hospital agreed by the patient. He was then entertained in the ER and laboratory work-ups were made. Patient was given medications and was made comfortable while waiting for the laboratory results. Everything in his CBC were just within the normal limits, as well as his stool exam and urinalysis. The doctor just said that the patient’s abdominal pain is due to indigestion.

In Vitro Fertilization

January 27th, 2009 janzynn may Posted in Business & Finance, Career & Education, Health, Living & Lifestyle, Science & Technology 1 Comment »

Fertilization is the fusion of two gametes (egg cell from female and sperm cell from male) to produce a new organism. When the sperm cell successfully fertilized the egg cell, the product is then called zygote. Normally, fertilization in humans occur in a part of the woman’s fallopian tube called ampulla.

Fertility is the natural capability of having a child. Fertility depends on several factors like nutrition, age, sexual behavior, culture, timing, emotions, way of life, economics, etc. In women, peak fertility occurs two days before and two days after the ovulation phase of the menstrual cycle. Fertility declines with increasing age. Fertility in women declines after 30 while semen volume, sperm motility (movement of the sperm) and sperm morphology (size and shape of the sperm) in males decline with increasing age. Infertility is the difficulty or inability to have a child. There are many causes of infertility.

In Vitro Fertilization is the major treatment in infertility when other Assistive Reproductive Technology (ART) methods are unsuccessful. IVF is the fertilization outside the womb, e.g. in test tubes, petri dishes or beakers. This produre involves hormonally controlling the ovulatory process, removing egg cells from the ovaries and letting the sperm cell fertilize them in a fluid medium. Once the fertilization is successful, the fertilized egg (zygote) is then transferred to the patient’s uterus. However, the success rate of IVF varies with age. Babies conceived as a result of IVF are called test tube babies. The first test tube baby was born on 1978.

Memory Card I/O Device Error

December 17th, 2008 janzynn may Posted in Business & Finance, Career & Education, Computer, Computers & Internet, Science & Technology 2 Comments »

If an I/O Device Error appears on your computer screen upon left-clicking your Memory Card and you have troubles opening your files, you may need to format your MMC or SD Card. If you cannot format it on your computer, try formatting it on your phone or camera. But of course, the data in your memory card will be lost, so, be quick and clever enough to perform backup tasks before doing so.

However, there is a Memory Card Data Recovery Software that you can find on the internet and download it into your computer. I have tried it when I had problems opening my MMC files and it worked. The lost data were all retrieved. That’s one good news!

Then, if the memory card works good on your phone or camera, try to connect it again to your computer. If it yields the same result, an I/O Device Error still appears on the screen and you cannot left-click the memory card, then, there may be some problems with your Card Reader. The card reader may have corrupted the files in your SD or memory card.

Even if you buy a new SD or MMC and try it on with your card reader, you may just be risking the new SD or Memory Card and waste your money. The card reader may already be damaged, and if it already is, it will damage every card you put in it. Instead, buying a new Card Reader gets the problem solved. Period.

I Learned Thai Language In Just 12 Hours!

November 18th, 2008 janzynn may Posted in Business & Finance, Career & Education, Entertainment, Living & Lifestyle, Science & Technology, Special Services, Travel, Uncategorized 3 Comments »

We all know that English is the universal language. However, in Thailand it is a foreign language and only a few knows how to speak English. Nevertheless, Thailand’s Ministry of Education had already instituted the English Program as part of the curriculum in all schools from preschool to college. On the other hand, I came to Thailand not to study English but to study the Thai language itself which people may say “hard to learn”. And I think so because my sisters were already here for about 10 years but still cannot read or write in Thai. They only learned to speak the common Thai phrases. Perhaps, Thai language may be really hard to learn.

It was only two weeks past since I arrived in Thailand when my sister took me on an exclusive tutorial of Thai language. I was the first and only “farang” (foreigner) student. The rest of the students were all Thai natives who were also enrolled for tutorial in any other subjects.

Learning Thai language was tough but I really enjoyed every minute I spent on it. And unbelievably, in only 12 hours I already knew how to read and write in Thai which was very difficult and mind-twisting. It was really an amazing experience! I am very glad that I already have a third language. Nonetheless, I am not yet through with the whole course. The next level would be focused on speaking or conversational Thai and I am so excited for it!

Here are some links for foreigners who plan to visit the Kingdom of Thailand and for those who want to learn Thai language:

Positioning of Casualty in Emergency Cases

November 1st, 2008 janzynn may Posted in Business & Finance, Career & Education, Computers & Internet, Entertainment, Health, Living & Lifestyle, Science & Technology No Comments »

It is very important to know some first aid tips so that in times of emergency we already know what to do initially, especially if there are no rescuers and rescue equipment readily available. In all emergency situations, always remember to prioritize the ABC - (1) Airway, (2) Breathing and (3) Circulation. Here are some tips in positioning a casualty and their rationales.

In aspiration, the casualty should be placed in prone position with the head turned to the side in order to maintain a patent airway and to avoid further airway obstruction.

If a casualty is having dyspnea or difficulty in breathing, place him or her in Fowler’s position to allow lung expansion. The head should be in 45 to 90 degrees angle.

If a casualty is in shock, place him or her in Trendelenburg position. The body is laid flat on the back (supine position) with the feet higher than the head. This is to increase the blood pressure so as to counteract shock. In this condition, insufficient blood flow reaches the body tissues that may lead to hypoxemia (a lack of oxygen in arterial blood) or cardiac arrest (the heart stopping). If there is no immediate action, it can cause death.

Recovering your Iphone in DFU mode

July 17th, 2008 janzynn may Posted in Computer, Science & Technology No Comments »

This procedure was taken from the Ziphone 3.0 software which may be useful in downgrading iPhone Firmware 2.0 to 1.1.4.

Full Hardware DFU:

1) Start iTunes and plug the phone in.
2) With the phone powered on, hold both the POWER and HOME buttons for mseven seconds. The screen should turn black.
3) Wait two seconds while the screen is black and release the POWER button while still holding the HOME button.
4) The screen will remain black, but after a few more seconds iTunes will detect the phone in recovery mode.
5) Release the HOME button and proceed to restore firmware with iTunes. Timing is fairly important on this. If your phone reboots or ends up in recovery mode, just try again. You might want to look at a clock that shows seconds while you do this. The timing needs to be exact for it to work. If you enter this mode by mistake, hold the HOME and POWER buttons for seven seconds until you see the Apple logo and immediately release both buttons. The phone should reboot normally, assuming a valid firmware image is present on the phone.
