Worth it All...

Ahead is unknown... it is an enigma that will only be unveiled through time and reason. Ahead lie the answers, the truth, the key to the mystery. And I continued to walk... with persistence... seeking for the unknown . I went on. I know not what I was seeking. I lied. It was never unknown. Forward, I moved... “Fight for it!” “Back off, idiot!” Two opposing forces Tried to steal the sanity left on me. I told the world I backed off. I lied. Went on... a faster stride. I fought. I endured. I closed my eyes. Everybody understands. I lied. I hear people talk behind. I fought. I endured. I reaped the glory. I fought. I’m glad I did. The prize I got Is precious than jewels; Enough to complete life, More than worth the fight. Time brought us back... Never allowed the world to act; Parted... But together we should be; And together we will be ‘Til forever becomes a history. Getting my hands dirty on poems again...!

Counting God's blessings....

God has been so good to me. I don't know why, but it scares me at times. I know I haven't been the most wonderful person in the world. I don't go to church, and I can't even remember the last time I was able to hear mass. I do things even if I know that it is against His teachings, and I know He is aware that there are times when I even doubt His existence. But despite all that, God continues to shower me with so much blessings. When I graduated from high school, everything was uncertain, but He showed me the way. The day right after graduation, I was given the greatest opportunity in my life. Then, I knew, all my dreams will never be put to waste. Holy Child Hospital was then my 'knight in shining armor'. By being able to work there, I got the chance to continue with my schooling. It was a tough and challenging experience, but I never gave up. I continued counting God's blessings... When the time came that I thought I will no longer be able to survive worki...

An update, finally!

"So, how's your teaching?" She said this with a beaming smile on her face ( close man kuno mi... hehe ). I almost answered, "Well, I just had my students evaluate me before going here, and like, 60% of them said that I speak too fast, 20% said that I should refrain from speaking in English because they have trouble understanding the language, 10% said that I need to be strict, 5% insisted that they like me because I'm not strict, I teach well, and I speak well; while the remaining 5% said that they like the way I look and the way I walk. Oh, by the way, how come you did not interview me? I heard you gave the other new instructors a hard time." However,I decided to just stay safe and answered with a very coy: "It's okay ma'am... I'm getting by." And she said, "Great! So, what do we have today?" I submitted her the transcriptions and stayed for a little chit-chat with her. Whew! It's been two months now since I started livin...

Current feeling: sad Current state of mind: Blank So, how will I start? It seems that I have a lot of explaining to do. So, from where do I begin? Okay... Classes have finally ceased. Yep, ceased permanently for me and 2800 others more. I have this mixed feelings about this. First, I am happy, very happy indeed; because finally, I will be able to say "bye, bye" to college life. But then, it dawned on me that not only will I say goodbye to school, I also need to kiss Pylon goodbye. This is what scares me. I am scared of going out to the real world (as they call it) and leaving my Pylon siblings. Am I ready? Nope, definitely not. So, where does that leave me? - to a world of question marks and exclamation points. Honestly, I still haven't imagined life away from our little, colorful office. Yes, I had been aware that this moment will really come - when I have to make decisions for myself, when I have to become used to becoming away from people I love, when working isn't...

Boongga!

Oh! so I have a blog pala... (*wink) Guess, I totally forgot about this (*sigh). Things hadn't really been easy for me. I had so many things to attend to. The previous months had been a whole lot busier than I thought. I had the production of the hardbound yearbook to focus on, my classes aren't that easy to handle either, my on-the-job-training has started and I need to complete 200 hours of duty for me to graduate this March, I had IPRs, team-building activities, and parties to organize for Pylon, plus this little raket raket stuffs which consumed my remaining available time. Whew! Imagine that? And mind you, I still was able to spend time with my loved ones. Three more months, and my life would undergo a total restructuring. A change in everything is something that I still cannot accept right now. For now, my whole time and attention is focused on the present. There had been a lot of changes in my life this year. Good thing, the yearbook production didn't give me a lot o...

Sa maglagot rah...

Wooohhh!!! I so miss this blog. It's like years since my last post! Geez...! I really don't know where to start. My life had been and is still a hullabaloo ride until now. Whew! But here I am - still alive, kicking and fighting. I really thought before that my second year as EIC would be a whole lot better than the first. I guess I was wrong then, because no load was ever lifted from my shoulders. Instead, more and more are added up every day. (hahaiz...) Honestly, I am so tired already. I am so tired squeezing up my mind to think of something good for the organization. I am so tired making up excuses for my absences from my classes ( my teachers are already tired listening to my reasons. ) I am so tired covering up my people's faults. I am so tired leading some people who do not want to be led, who thinks that I am belittling them when I give them instructions, and who criticize me and blame me with something that I am not even aware of doing to them. Well, I guess these t...
