my first time ;)

i am thee lovely Marion. i have never blogged before so here i go..i currently attend SJSU as a bio major. i someday hope to be a pediatrician. my bday is July 25, 1990 &i just barely turned 18. i was born in Laguna, Philippines but was raised in Union City, California. many people who have met me think i'm either half mexican, hawaiian or sometimes even polynesian. both my mom & dad are Filipino which makes me 100% Filipino. i have one older brother that is 19 years old, a younger sister that is turning five in december, and another younger sister that is turning one this december. i am hoping to be a pediatrician someday because when i was in the 5th grade i encountered a life and death situation. i was put in the hospital for about three months due to a rare case. Until this day my doctors from Children's Hospital of Oakland still can't identiify what exactly happened to me. when they performed my first surgery, they took my appendix out. soon after, i still had stomach pains. as a result, i had another surgery which they cleaned out my whole stomach. my doctors concluded that my lymph nodes caught a virus (tuberculosis) and it ruptured in my stomach. till this day i still have a big scar on the bottom right hand side of my tummy. i was to be a pediatrician to be able to help children in need like when i needed help. i love playing waterpolo. i played all of my four years in high school. i also enjoy working out and swimming. i dont listen to different varieties of music except for pop, r&b, and oldies. rock music isnt really my thing. i am familiar with some rock musicians such as the beetles and the rolling stones but im not too fond of their music. i really dont listen to rock music now a days either.
