X went to the store to buy pancit. He did this because he felt sharp needles in his stomach area. After eating the pancit, X still felt the sharp needles. He wonders aloud why his stomach still hurts. His housemate, Z, told him that even stress, not just skipping meals, can be a reason for ulcer, thus the stomach pains. And then X felt the stab of the needles even more.
X thinks that he should consult via Osaka Iridology, a technology which intimates your past, present and future sickness, mild or strong, or medium.
X goes to Osaka Laboratories. On his way, he thinks he should start his studying marathon for the nearing finals week. He brings his mp3 player with him which features all the Audio Codals the UP LSG had been promoting as fundraising for the Bar Operations.
He is now in the MRT Cubao station. He hears an ominous male voice reciting Section 42 of Rule 130 of the Rules of Court – “So, also, statements accompanying an equivocal act material to the issue, and giving it a legal significance, may be received as part of the res gestae.”
What are equivocal acts again? Damn! X feels another part of his stomach area stabbed by needles.
When X was in the MRT Ortigas station, X checks his cellphone. 1 message received. He reads, “Hi X, I’ve finished making my share of the mini-digests for Hearsay until Weight and Sufficiency of Evidence. Sent them to your email, 56 all. When are you sending yours?” X finished making 20 mini-digests. Finals will be 10 days later. He feels more needles.
Arriving at Osaka Laboratories, X meets Kiyosaki. Kisyosaki tells X that he has ulcer.
X: But I eat my meals on time!
Kiyosaki: Too much stress can cause ulcer, too.
X: You sound like my housemate.
Kiyosaki: Your housemate is right. Learn to control your stress levels. Learn to control yourself. We control our brain. Our brain controls our emotions. If you notice, our moods are dependent on our ideas.
X: You have an advanced technology for detecting diseases even at an early stage. I unwarrantedly get stressed all the time, even for the simple thing of listening to my mp3 player!
Kiyosaki: Hmmm… Osaka Laboratories does not have the technology to dictate your feelings. It cannot dictate you at all. It can only assess you as you are right now, “sick” or not.
X: You mean that in spite of the advanced state of technology, man remains an autonomous, individual being?
Kiyosaki: Yes :D Technology is morally neutral. It is man’s use that determines its course, left or right.
X: Okay, thank you Mr. Kiyosaki. I’m signing up for the Breathing Sessions later at Edsa Shang.
Kiyosaki: Take care :D

haha! who could x be? (is this true, breathewell has breathing sessions, too? i just sounded so gullible, didn't i? but seriously...)
btw, there's a group of medical practitioners, who, i think, are doing something about this iridology technology because of the ineffective pieces of "medical" advise they have been giving their patients. maybe, x ought to know that :D
Sanne,
I'll tell you about the breathing sessions when we meet hehe :D
Ay ganun ba? Pwedeng pang-another blog yung ineffective "medical" advise na yun :D Siguro masyado silang maraming iridology centers, tapos yung staff nila inadequate ang training. pero speculation lang yun :D
that was in the news in the last week.
i think it was the doctors from pma who say that those who give medical advise in iridology clinics are not really doctors. they also got reports from patients who were advised to buy supplements, which did not help the patients' conditions improve.
sige, will await for the "breathing sessions" update :D
