            so my brother's banned.
i'm so sad for him. he's been preparing for the exam for months; now he's not allowed to take it anymore.
there must be a good reason for US's decision, and i'm not about to express bitterness for that. i'm just really sad for my brother (gosh i can't keep myself from repeating that). maybe there are too many Filipinos in American healthcare facilities and they're getting a bit overcrowded.
uh. what a bad day.(-.-)

                            well they are a little bit strict about it when you think about it, sometimes they can get the questions by asking the previous people who have taken that exam and over the years they are getting more and more questions that it is basically easier.
the questions in those test are always the same and they add only a few hundred each year in there database and shuffle it to get those 100 question exams

                    oh,that's a sad thing to hear. I hope someday they would change their minds about imposing such action. It really is a big loss to a lot of people,but don't worry there are still plenty of countries needing PT's.

                            hi~
i met my brother yesterday. he planned to go to the middle east since he couldn't go to the us, but he said his previous employer told them that the ban may be lifted next year. so decided to stay here instead, and while waiting he was asked to take care of one of our relatives who's bedridden.
i'm really glad that my brother took everything calmly. i think i was more disappointed than he was. haha:D
