Aldrich Argana: yaikes.. kala ko nursing..
Aldrich Argana: fianals ko kasi pregnancy at abortion.. tapos kailangan ko mag defense..
Jem-chan: hmm okay
Jem-chan: what about it?
Aldrich Argana: eh wala naman ako knowledge about pregnancy eh.. kala ko nursing ka rin kaya syempre mas aware girls dun [wtf?!]
Jem-chan: ^^ may notes ka na dun dba?
Jem-chan: tingin ko
Aldrich Argana: wala
Aldrich Argana: abortion lang..
Aldrich Argana: meron
Jem-chan: mas maraming alam na data ang libro at internet sa ken
Aldrich Argana: wala eh.. hirap sa net.. buti nga hindi thesis na tipong papa survey ako ng pro and anti abortion eh..
Aldrich Argana: tsk tsk
Aldrich Argana: kung ikaw pro or anti pro abortion and why?
BUZZ!!!
Jem-chan: anti abortion
Aldrich Argana: waht if ayaw mo then gusto ng guy or vice versa?
Jem-chan: people need to learn to own up to their actions and its consequences
Aldrich Argana: waht if ayaw mo then gusto ng guy or vice versa?
Jem-chan: ayaw ko na ano?
Aldrich Argana: maging pregnant
Aldrich Argana: maybe too young or incest or scared sa parents..
Jem-chan: well, it would still be my body
Jem-chan: my decision
Jem-chan: and i think i would just end up having the baby if ever
Aldrich Argana: eh waht if ikaw ang may ayaw tapos gusto ng guy?
Aldrich Argana: *what
Jem-chan: ewan ko lng
Jem-chan: hindi ko masasagot yan
Jem-chan: kasi sa totoo lang
Aldrich Argana: hirap diba..
Jem-chan: hindi ko nakikita ung sarili ko sa posisyon na yan
Jem-chan: kung gagawa ako ng katangahan handa akong panagutan kung ano man ang kalalabasan nun
Jem-chan: hindi ko na problema ang ibang tao
Aldrich Argana: kailangan ko pa mag hanap ng nagpa abort.. tsk tsk.. kasi masyadong mababaw ung takot sa parents or too young.. kasi meron ako friend 15 years old pero single mom
Jem-chan: ah okies
Aldrich Argana: pedia kasi prof dun kaya kaialangan detailed eh.. langya eh sa net puro medical abortion lang eh.. walang pros and cons..
Aldrich Argana: dapat pa ata mag hanap ako ng taga states para masagot ung mga un eh.. dun kasi alam ko legal un eh.. then sa pinas alam ko bawal
Jem-chan: tama
Aldrich Argana: pano ko naman iddefense kung bakit bawal dito tapos sa ibang bansa pede.. [yeaaah.. how the heck is he going to ever "defense" that?!]
Jem-chan: kasi po
Jem-chan: the philippines
Jem-chan: is mostly a catholic country
Aldrich Argana: what if itanung nung panel na bakit sa states maliking bansa legal sya tapos sa pinas na napaka sikip na bawal?
Jem-chan: and since abortion is against hte teachings fo the catholic church
Jem-chan: abortion is illegal
Aldrich Argana: ano ung hte?
Jem-chan: the
Jem-chan: typo lng
Aldrich Argana: ah..
Jem-chan: how old are you?
Aldrich Argana: 23
Jem-chan: ah.. i see
Aldrich Argana: pero never pako naka buntis ah
Jem-chan: right
Aldrich Argana: 23 2nd year nursing [you for real? 23? really?!]
Jem-chan: ok
Aldrich Argana: and you how old?
Aldrich Argana: or how young?
Jem-chan: 21
Aldrich Argana: ah wait.. sabi mo bawal diba.. pero bakit meron kaming prof na pag nakita sa ultrasound na magiging trisonomy 21 ung pinag bubuntis open daw sya sa abortion..
Aldrich Argana: see.. nakasalalay pagiging 3rd year ko dun..
Jem-chan: i have no idea what a trisonomy 21 is
Aldrich Argana: mongoloid..
Jem-chan: but i'm guessing it's nothing like a normal pregnancy
Jem-chan: it's all a matter of perspective and personal morals eh
Aldrich Argana: ung magiging special child.. nowadays nakikia na sa ultra sound un eh..
Jem-chan: your prof probably thinks that the child will not have much of a future as a "mongoloid" so he'd rather not have the child live
Aldrich Argana: kaya nga.. but still nasa pinas sya.. so BAWAL.. eh bakit nya sasabihin na open sya sa ganun..
Jem-chan: because
Jem-chan: he pities the child
Jem-chan: he believes its existence wont be fruitfull or would only be painfull
Aldrich Argana: pwede ba sa court un..
Jem-chan: ..i think it's pretty easy to spot his reasons
Jem-chan: i wouldnt know
Jem-chan: my knowledge of the philippine constitution doesnt include the family code
Aldrich Argana: but still sa batas ng pinas bawal..
Aldrich Argana: un ung nakita ko sa net..
Jem-chan: why do you think your professor woudl allow it then?
Jem-chan: has he done it?
Aldrich Argana: sabi nya daw
Aldrich Argana: "oo" daw.. once..
Jem-chan: why do you suppose he went ahead and did it
Jem-chan: think
Jem-chan: put yourself in your prof's shoes
Jem-chan: rationalize
Aldrich Argana: syempre may sariling mundo ung baby.. pero sabi nya nga illegal.. pero open sya sa ganun..
Jem-chan: why nga
Jem-chan: bakit sa tingin mo open sya dun
Aldrich Argana: hindi naman un ang tanung ko eh.. kung open sya edi bahala sya.. kung sasabihin nya na kaysa pahirapan mo ung bata sa pag laki at ung parents edi terminate na agad.. pero nasa law ng pinas na BAWAL ang abortion.. hindi naman pedeng pag dating sa court sasabihin nya na naawa lang ako..
Jem-chan: that's true
Jem-chan: so what other reasons do you think your prof has
Aldrich Argana: so bakit nya isasacrifice un PHD nya para lang dun? dba..
Jem-chan: what do you think is the answer to that question
Aldrich Argana: labo mo kausap
Aldrich Argana: lahat ng tanung ko binalik mo
Aldrich Argana: thanks anyways,
Jem-chan: because the answers need to come from you
Jem-chan: it's how you interpret the problem
Jem-chan: you cant use my way of reasoning for your defense because the answer wouldnt be yours and you may not be able to support it
Jem-chan: gets mo?

*sigh*

he single-handedly made me lose faith and trust in the future philippine health care system..
