stopover

Haistt... for two weeks, stopover for studying, works and headaches. It's our time to enjoy our lives, Christmas and New Year with our families. Though, it had been an awful, quite, vacation. The very first Saturday of my vacation, it's hard, because my mother was scheduled to leave the country on 23 this day. So we have to spend almost all of our time with her. Ahmm, wait, about the Christmas party last December 19, it's fun. I've got to enjoy my last few hours in the school with my closest friends. Just when I arrived in the school, since I'm the one to bring the spaghetti and I can't carry it myself, I called Geli and we brought it upstairs... Then we stayed in front of the Maliksi Building, the venue of the program. [flashback], in the christmas party for the school level, the SALIW prepared for a production number. And in the few days of practicing, the SALIW encountered different problems. But the main problem is between Ma'am and ate Dana, I think. And it resulted to the leaving of ate Dana in the group. So everyone, all of us did our best to have a production number and we did it. Back again, I first sat with Charmaine 9with Jez), she's in a dress but the way she sits... Then I sat with Geli and Theresa. Were like in a different venue because we're not even listening to the program. At the end of this last day, I received 4 gifts, excluding the one I received in our exchange gift. Those were from Camille,Princess, Ma'am, and ate JamJam. Enough for that... And this 23 in the morning, as early as 3 o'clock, we left the house to come with our mom in the airport and make our last moments with her. We were even lost beacause we don't know where NAIA 1 is.

promise... don't Leave

"cause you're holding me tight, I just want to fly, and the time has come, and I got to say goodbye, to the life that you see me in, here's where I begin...". Serious problems come along and I just to get into it and overcome those. Just lilke our family.

'you know how life could be, it changes over bow, it's not even raining, but it's alright. A friend like you, always make it easy. I know that you give me, everytime. Through every up, through every down, you know I'll always be around, through anything, you can count on me..'

Whoa, there are a lot of things that I have to do and to overcome. Everyday, another problem. Just like, Lorena, I think it had been 3 times that she has been telling me that she knows something about me but when I ask her about it, she keeps on saying,, "mamatay ka sa kaiisip". If I'm not mistaken, last 1st grading also, she did that I think with Joan. But now, even Jamare joined this "_____". I don't know really what to do. I will just remain silentand even just talk when needed. . .

Toxic Substances

In the context of biology, toxic substances are substances that can cause damage, illness, or death to organisms, usually by chemical reaction or other activity on the molecular scale, when a sufficient quantity is absorbed by an organism. Legally and in hazardous chemical labeling, poisons are especially toxic substances; less toxic substances are labeled "harmful", "irritant", or not labeled at all.
In medicine, particularly veterinary and in zoology, a poison is often distinguished from a toxin and venom. Toxins are poisons produced via some biological function in nature, and venoms are usually defined as biologic toxins that are injected by a bite or sting to cause their effect, while other poisons are generally defined as substances which are absorbed through epithelial linings such as the skin or gut.
Toxins are referred to as naturally produced substances, such as the bacterial proteins that cause tetanus and botulism. A distinction between the two terms is not always observed, even among scientists.
Animal toxins that are delivered subcutaneously (e.g. by sting or bite) are also called venom. In normal usage, a poisonous organism is one that is harmful to consume, but a venomous organism uses poison to defend itself while still alive. A single organism can be both venomous and poisonous.
Within chemistry and physics, a poison is a substance that obstructs or inhibits a reaction, for example by binding to a catalyst. For example, see nuclear poison.
Paracelsus, the father of toxicology, once wrote: "Everything is poison, there is poison in everything. Only the dose makes a thing not a poison." The phrase "poison" is often used colloquially to describe any harmful substance, particularly corrosive substances, carcinogens, mutagens, teratogens and harmful pollutants, and to exaggerate the dangers of chemicals. The legal definition of "poison" is stricter. A medical condition of poisoning can also be caused by substances that are not legally required to carry the label "poison".



Uses of toxic substances
Throughout these years, intentional application of toxic substances has been used as a method of assassination, murder and suicide. On the whole, however, toxic substances are usually not used for their toxicity, but may be used for their other properties. The property of toxicity itself has limited applications: mainly for controlling pests and weeds, cleaning and maintenance, and for preserving building materials and food stuffs. Where possible, specific agents which are less poisonous to humans have come to be preferred.
Many toxic substances still in use are used for their chemical and physical properties rather than being poisonous. Many medications, such as aspirin and Tylenol, are toxic if ingested in sufficiently large quantities. Even alcohol can become toxic if too much is ingested in a short period of time. In laboratory environments, the most effective, easiest, safest, option for use in a chemical synthesis may be a poisonous material. If a toxic substance possesses these properties more exactly than a non-toxic one, the toxic substance is superior. Chromic acid is an example of such a simple to use reagent, but reactivity, in particular, is important. Hydrogen fluoride is both poisonous and extremely corrosive. However, it contains high free energy for silicon, which is exploited by using hydrogen fluoride to etch glass or to manufacture silicon semiconductor chips.
On the other hand, there are certain medical treatments make use of the toxicity of certain substances such as antibiotics. Antibiotics are highly disruptive to micro-organisms while having no effects upon humans. Another thing, the drugs which are used in chemotherapy are toxic, quite.

Decontamination of Toxic Substances
The absorption of toxic substances may be able to be decreased through gastric decontamination if the toxin was recently ingested. Gastric decontamination may be achieved using:
▪ Activated charcoal – treatment of choice to prevent absorption of poison. This activated charcoal is ineffective against metals, sodium, potassium, alcohol, glycol, acids and alkalis.
▪ Nasogastric aspiration – it involves the placement of a tube via nose down to the stomach of the person. The stomach contents are then removed through suction. It is usually used for liquid ingestions where activated charcoal is ineffective.

▪ Gastric lavage/stomach pump – it is where a tube is inserted into the stomach, followed by the pouring of water or saline down to the tube.
▪ Whole bowel irrigation – this is achieved by giving the patient large amounts of polyethylene glycol solution. Its major uses are following ingestion of sustained release drugs, toxins that are not absorbed by activated charcoal and for the removal of ingested packets of drugs.

mac-int-osh ... macintosH

This school year, one of my most awaited event is the intramurals in our school. It is where the whol student body meet and got a teamwork to win. In the past two years of my stay in CNSHS, the teams are of different levelsand sections, but now, it's by year level. Of course, it's quite exciting and the same time, I'm nervous because they say, the winner is already known. On Monday (October 6), the first day of intramurals '08 is held. At first, we had the competition of the cheerdances. And followed by the Ms. and Mr. Physique. After several warm and noisy hours, we had our break. Then after a thirty-minute break, we again resume to the announcing of the winners. We all didn't expect that our team will win in the cheerdancing competition because the fourth years had many lifting and they have the best dancers. And still, we won. In the Ms. and Mr. Physique, our team is just the second placer and the yellow asus won. But it's just alright at least we followed the saying "ang nagwawagi ay pusong marangal". After that we had our lunch time. It's a warm or even hot afternoon and I just ate in the canteen with Roxanne, Joan and Joy(mary). After our lunch time, I have my first elimination game. But before playing, I fell in the canal, with broken steel and I again got a wound which I experienced when I was in grade 6, where in the white part is seen. But I still have to fight so that if we will win, were just waiting and fighting for the first and second place.

In the first day of the Intramurals '08, the Ms. and Mr. Physique were presented and after the ramp and some question and answer portion, the winner were announced. The whole campus was shocked when the representative of the yellow asus, Arianne Ramirez made the pause of the year where she "kasa" the gun and touch her skin. Then the fourth place were awarded to the GREEN ACERS, third place to BLUE VAIO, second place to RED MACINTOSH and the MS. and MR. PHYSIQUE '08 is awarded to YELLOW ASUS.

In the second day of the intramurals (October 7, 2008), the grand finals of CHESS boys anf girls were held. All the players from different teams compete to get the first place. The game took for more than thirty minutes and the game was ended. For the CHESS/girls category, RED MACINTOSH were awarded the first placer. For CHESS/boys category, YELLOW ASUS won.

In the third and fourth(extention day), the awarding and the last games to play were held. On the third day, in badminton all category, all the teams compete. For the boys/singles a, BLUE VAIO was the winner, for boys/singles b, still, BLUE VAIO won. For boys/doubles, RED MACINTOSH won. For girls category, BLUE VAIO, RED MACINTOSH and GREEN ACERS won respectively.

In the extention day, all the winners were called but there are no medals yet and thropies. The following is the arrangement of the over-all winner:

• fourth place = green ACERS(first years)
• third place = yellow ASUS(second years)
• second place = red MACINTOSH(third years)
• first place = blue VAIO(fourth years)
