Blood Pressure Rising

Just this Monday, I had quite a very unique experience…

My day started out just fine, I had no review class for that day and figured out for something to do…

Nothing came into my mind, then suddenly I saw my brothers new phone, and my innerself said…”hey why not have pictorials this afternoon”

I agreed to that idea (my innerself thinks good)… Besides I had no recent photos to post on my friendster account. And no recent pic to manipulate with (my now favorite pastime).

So I rushed into my brothers room and opened his drawer and got his make-up box and started dabbing some make-up on…  FYI my brother’s gay, ok?

So there I was all made up and good to go for my self photography…

Your probably thinking that I’m that narcissitic or that I’m very crazy for doing such things just to passan afternoon by, but hell no, (I’m just crazy but not very crazy, hehehe) I just enjoy photography and experimenting with myself. I’m an aspiring and frustrated photographer and model all rolled in one! Beat that!

So there I was all made and dressed up.

I was already starting my self photo shoot. Trying different angles just to look better (I’m not that pretty, ok? just forgive me on that, hehehe). Then suddenly my mother came home together with two of our neighbors. She came into the room where I was having my mini photoshoot and told me that one of our neighbors felt dizzy and that her nape was aching and she wanted me to check her blood pressure. I was like…

“Huwatt? as in now?”

 I was really pissed off. I was in the start of my shoot and suddenly this lady wanted me to take her blood pressure?

Oh, man!

I told my mother that I have make-up on and it was embarrasing to come out just like that! What will our neighbors think of me? Like I’m crazy, all made and dress up just at home? I so badly want them to go home! But even though I was very pissed off I know that as a nurse (FYI I’m a nurse, hehehe. It doesn’t show, but unfortunately I am)  it was my duty to do small things like that. I had no choice but to wash my face and face my calling. I was still upset about it and thought of my own blood pressure rising.

So I took the lady’s blood pressure and to my surprise she was way above normal. Imagine 220/140 mmhg and still talking! (FYI normal blood pressure is 120/80 mmhg). I felt terrible for her and the way i reacted, I was beyond ashamed of how selfish I was.

Even though I ended my shoot way before I even started, (I didn’yt even perspire) I was able to capture some shots, and here they are I’ve named them the Pression Series (as in blood pressure)…

Enjoy…
