It was getting dark, so I went home and discussed with my parents our
semester break.

When I’m in high school, I don’t know what course I'm taking in college.
Every time I get to see my aunts, they always ask me what my dream
job is. I tell them that I’m still undecided and haven’t thought of any.
They are giving suggestions like a lawyer, but I’m too sensitive, and I
think I can’t defend my client, if ever. They also suggested a doctor; it’s
a common suggestion from relatives. I told them that I don’t like blood,
but they said to face my fears. They said that I have to think about it
already because I’m already in high school.
They are correct; you must think about the things that interest you
before it is too late. As a result, I'm late for it I accept their suggestion
to become a doctor, despite my fear of blood.

The day passed; it was our last day in Boracay. I felt relaxed, and I felt
like I didn’t want to go home. While we were buying some souvenirs in
the stall, there was a man beside me. I think he was in his mid-20s. I
noticed that he kept touching his head, then he suddenly fainted. His
skin was red, hot, and dry. I called the attention of some random
people to help me carry the guy inside the nearest store that has air
conditioning. I asked if they could get me ice packs.
Luckily there was a stall selling drinks outside they gave a lot of ice and
then put it in different plastic bags I immediately put it in his armpits,
groin, neck, and back. Because these areas are rich with blood vessels
close to the skin, cooling them may reduce body temperature.
Moments later, he was finally conscious. We gave him water and told
him that he should be careful next time.
That was the first time I witnessed something like that and luckily the
people responded fast and we immediately gave him first aid I feel
proud that I helped someone today. The guy thanked me for saving
him, I said that it was nothing and I’m more thankful that we saved him.
We spend our remaining time in our room sharing our fun experiences
here in Boracay except for what happened earlier of course but we take
it as a lesson to be extra careful especially since it’s summer we should
stay hydrated and always wear sunscreen.

I’m going to focus on my upcoming licensure exam. I'll try what I can to
make my family proud. They said I shouldn't put too much pressure on
myself whether I pass or fail the exam; they're always there to support
me, and there's always a chance.

In the past 3 months, all I did is to review for the licensure exam I had
worked hard to get to this point in her life, and passing the exam was
the last hurdle I had to conquer before earning a medical license in my
area. I knew it would be difficult, but I was determined to give it
everything I had and I didn't want to let myself or my family down.
