Who are you?
My name is Arkee Blu, RN, BSN, CCRN. I am originally from Manila, Philippines. I have been in the United States for over 10 years now, still learning the language and adapting to the culture. I am an ICU / Travel Cath Lab Registered Nurse, a dog dad, a blogger, an online Entrepreneur.
Blogger. I used to blog as Pablong Pabling of KA-BLOGS-TUGAN . My old blog was nominated twice in the prestigious Philippine Blog Awards year 2009 and 2011 in 2 different categories. I stopped blogging kabulastugan after college.
Online Entrepreneur. . I started my own online hoodie business when I was 24 years old back in Los Angeles, California. It was a really great learning experience as a young entrepreneur. The feeling when people around the world buy your product is priceless. I remember shipping my products to countries like Korea, Germany, Japan and Italy. Too bad my business didn’t do well at the end of its year cause of lack of manpower, thus I moved in Texas to pursue my career in healthcare.
Registered Nurse. I don't think you should work yourself to death, only to have a lot of money and come to realize that the best years of your life have gone by. If you are happy, money will come. I love nursing, I am happy with my profession I'm in. I cannot see myself doing anything else except nursing. Here's more why. Click Here
MAY 2018 : I made it to Houston's Top 150 Nurses. Work Hard and Play Harder!!
What is this blog all about?
My aim is to inspire and motivate others to do what they love to do. I love being a nurse. I cannot imagine myself doing anything else except nursing. Also I just recently discovered my passion for travelling. I wished I started earlier but I couldn't turn back time. Needless to say this is what is this blog all about. To start doing things what you love to do. I am motivating myself to travel more and explore the world. I want to see places I have never been, meet people and make friends in all races, eat their food and learn their cultures.
Also, I may have develop Alzheimer's or dementia someday. I want to remember all this wonderful memories when I am old. I love taking pictures . I am not a professional photographer. I neither use expensive camera I just use my phone (Samsung S20 Ultra 5G) and just recently rewarded myself with a Go Pro Hero 6. I hope y'all like my pictures and selfies. Lol. Don’t hate bruh!
I am still in the process of becoming the best person that I can be. I think being great is not about working a lot or making a lot of money. It’s about having a purpose in life, it’s about being able to help out others, being able to enjoy life to the fullest, being able to be worry free, being able to express who you are and lastly its about being the best you can possibly be.
I have recently came out as gay to my friends and family and coming out has been the best decision I have made in my life. No more hiding of who I am, and I am able to share this part of me to my family and friends and life is just happier.
With my busy schedule, I will try to keep updating as much as I can. I hope to inspire and motivate you to pursue your dreams.
