Take a Break

SHOUT IT OUT:

I have barely dodged a bullet this semester. Though I had no failing marks, a waiver was given to me. I have not reached the required average. First time ko toh. I brought my dad along with me. Nung midterms palang alam ko na na hindi ko maabot yung finals. But the funny thing about it, is we both just laughed on it. After dad signed the waiver, we both walked to the lobby and just laughed on it. He even said na "Buti na lang wala kang bagsak." So it was really a double relief for me, buti na lang! So now I got a lot of work to do.

Last Saturday's Youth assembly was a blast! It was really energetic grabe. Though I have to admit, kulang ng man power yung nag sponsor ng event. But the Mass and the youth jam, astig talaga. Na believe nga ako dun sa mga special youth na pumunta, ang tyaga ng madre na nag hahandle sa kanila.

We watched the movie Butterfly On a Wheel last night. My first impression of the movie was boring, but I find the 300 vs 007 fight awesome! The story has a good moral lessons for couples especially for men. Pero natawa ako dun sa ending, the wife was weird and scary. And the husband was not man enough to tell the truth, grabe!

HOT SEAT:

I have no intention to hinder your plan. But just remember what I told you, okay. And also if something bad happened, the first person your gonna deal with is me. You neither know her nor her friends yet. This is not a warning but both a reminder and an advice. Who am I to stop you?

I am glad that you'll be staying, good for you and me. Your all that I've got.

I am touched when you said "Hindi ako nagkamali ng nalapitan." I am really thankful for that. I hope you'll soon get over it.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY:

A problem is like a tattoo. Before the picture is formed on the surface of the skin, it has to undergo a process of scarification. The person, during this painful process, has nothing to do but to bear the pain of and focus his mind that it will be finished soon and hope that the outcome will be beautiful. For us to deal with life we should not forget to focus on the things that we have to do. And enduring this pain is also a challenge for us to become a better person.

On My Observation (1)

SHOUT IT OUT:
I had a wonderful experience with my Auntie this morning. Both of us went to her praise and worship Sundays (she had a different religion). Well the venue was big and well ventilated and ang dami ring tao. Tapos yun nag simula na yung worship nagging energetic na ang lahat, pati ako napasama. Ang ganda ng music and animations sobra, nakukuha nila yung attention ng tao. Naaliw ako sa pag sayaw ng mga animators, the danced gracefully on stage; as in kuhang kuha nila (malamang eh kung every Sunday nila ginagawa yun eh hehehe). May mga colors and flowers pa as props. Parang hindi lang nila napeperfect just because praktisado nila or sanay na but parang they are all offering it to God, I mean na parang may halong spirituality in it. Na music was awesome too, hehehe napapakanta ako even new yung songs for me. The Sermon was also excellent, ang galing ng "Pastor" nila magsalita. The theme was about "Isaac: A Very Difficult Sonship" , it talks about the youth and why do they sometimes act in a different way. From beggining to end, ang saya hehehe. . . But all of it was just an observation, I am really happy to be a Catholic, this is not so different with our Youth Prayer Meetings and Community Prayer Meetings.

To be continued. . .

Big Thorn Out

SHOUT IT OUT:

Natapos na yung mga kay hirap hirap naming mga exams, pero mas marami pa akong sure na sagot sa Health Care at RLE compared sa Statistics. I just hope na I pass all of my subjects. Although I have to admit na hindi ako nag seryoso this sem, pero sana kahit waiver makuha ko, ayoko uulitin yung subject na nabagsak ko. But still, I have this slight chance that I might pass, I still have my faith, God willing!
Pasaway! May recollection pa eh, hihirit pa yung school ng pera sa amin eh. Mag wawala ako pag uulitin namin yung clearance, takte kasalanan nyo yan gawan nyo ng paraan!!!!!!!! (This sentence is not addressed to my fellow classmates)

I watched Stardust with my family and PRYM last night hehehe, okay lang yung movie. Although the movie project was late on schedule and had a bit of technical problems, at least nakanuod yung mga tao. Pero wait lang! Ayus ayusin sana nila movie service sa susunod! Takte! Ang usapan kasi 8pm pero nag simula 9pm, tapos may problema pa sa sounds. Pasalamat sils, sa kanila tayo pumunta!

First on my agenda this sem break, hmmmm. . . Papaturo ako mag drive! Woooohhhhoooo!

HOT SEAT:

I didn't do well at my stats, takte naman kasi. He focussed us on doing calculations but the examination prioritized more on explanations and interpretations. I only used my calculator once, pero nung nag kaklase kami turo siya ng turo ng tamang paggamit ng scientific calcu. He reminded us that the situation will be like this kung kelan last day of stat class. Prof no offense, I know you are very consdirate and all but please change your teaching style, lalong nabobobo yung mga estudyante. Alam mo naman palang more on interpretations yung test, bakit mo kami pinokus sa pag calculate. Yes I know that its also important, but at least man lang ni-review mo kami the week before the examination. Now, I know it is our duty to study, pero we have to give more priority on our major subjects, hindi naman pinagmamaliit yung subject mo (minor siya kasi), pero please don't be such a heavy burden to us. Nahihirapan na nga kami sa mga major namin tapos gaganituhin mo pa kami. Please change your teaching strategy!

Salamat sa lahat, salamat sa pakikisama, salamat sa saya, salamat sa pag tititwala, salamat sa suporta. Hanggang sa muli, magkikita kita pa rin tayo. Darating din ang araw na kumpleto tayo at magkakasamasama sa isang libangan. Pero sa ngayon paalam muna, ingat ka kapatid. . .

REFLECTION:

There are some people who are lucky and there are those who just needs more effort to achieve certain goals. But what inspires me, is that they would do whatever it takes just to have better lives of there own and there family's. They'll sacrifice everything just to attain it. These are the real heroes of today. They would put there life on it and they would shed tears and blood if needed. So the next time you had problems studying, remember to focus on your goal, think of your future and your family. And do it all for God.

Barely Hanging

SHOUT IT OUT:

Just took the final examination for Micro and PolGov. Nakakatawa naman tignan na nahihirapan ako sa Polgov, kasi I focussed more on Micro pero kahit na nahirapan din ako dun yun nga lang ang dami kong sure na sagot. Ramdam ko na talaga magkaka waiver ako, well whatever consiquences there might be, handa na ako. . . . . . I hope. . . . . . Bad trip kasi natyempuhan pa kung kelan nan dito sina Tita at Lola.

PRYM! 3 years na tayo of service! Let's keep it up yo! Sana may chillax hehehehe. . . .

REFLECTION:

I guess this is meant to happen for a reason. But I still have my faith though. Why is it have to be so close!?

Why do I get the feeling that I will be left alone again?

Just Got Drained

SHOUT IT OUT:

Just tired, talagang tinitira kami nitong mga minor subjects na ito ever since nawala na yung RLE. Tignan mo it took me the whole night till morning tapusin yung project namin sa computer na macromedia presentation. Nang dahil dyan hindi ko masyado nasa ulo yung sarili kong speech, hindi ako nakareview for my stats but the good thing is that hindi natuloy yung quiz. Hehehe pasensya na Sir kung bad trip kayo sa amin. Pero at least nabawi lahat nung nag homeroom hehehe, talent ek-ek.

Sorry if I am lacking something lately, its just this studies and my other family relatives are here. Babawi talaga ako sa gathering and YPM.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY:

With in my words came out the reason why I am here. The answers just came falling right on top of my head. So, I have to admit that I have eaten my own comments before.

Loko kayong mga amboys ah! Mabuti nga may mga nag-aalaga sa inyo mga katulad namin. Hindi sa pag yayabang noh! Pero san ka makakakita ng ganyang kabait, kaalaga at maarugang tao. Tapos sa huli lalaitan niyo kami ng ganito, mga gago pala kayo eh! Kung lahat ng mga pasyente nyo hangginan namin ng injection ha, tignan lang natin! Oo nga matataas yung mga binibigay nyong sweldo, pero wala nang mas hihigit pa sa binibigay naming pag-alaga ng kalusugan ninyo. Ang laki ng pasensya namin sa mga reklamo ninyo tapos ganito lang gagawin niyo sa amin. Tapos kanina lang naka hirit nanaman kayo, inisar ba naman yung dating pangulo namin. Ewan ko ba sa inyo, tignan niyo nga yung pangulo ninyo, lasinggero, mali mali pa ang pag bigkas ng sariling wika. Tira ng bomba dito, gawa ng gera dyan. Patirahin ko kayo sa mga Koreano eh, isang bomba lang kayo. Sana maalis na ang anumang diskrminasyong meron hindi lang sa amin kundi sa lahat. Hindi sa nakeke-alam pero apektado din ako, kahit estudyante lang ako, nilalait nyo yung mga kuya, ate, tita, tito at yung mga ibang magulang namin. Pambihira kasi mga tamad kayo mag alaga ng kapwa tao ninyo!
