1st Jeepney Story: Rugby

I am not pertaining to the Rugby World Cup. Rugby. An orange-colored adhesive glue used to repair and/or connect leather/s. -Self definition I just got off from school. It was a rainy Wednesday. Summer seems to be over already, I told myself. I hurried to ride and go home early because I don't have any umbrella with me or else, I'll get wet. I was on the jeep with my bestfriend talking about anything under the cold summer day. After some few minutes we have to say our goodbyes already and have to call it a day. I was the only passenger left in the jeep so i just wore the headphone and listened to my techy stuff when suddenly someone came in to take a ride. A beggar. I got shocked. Not because she is a beggar but because of the thing she is holding that time. She is holding a thick bamboo stick (not stalk) for protection and a plastic on her other hand. The plastic contains what more but rugby. I want to stop her from doing so but she is holdi...

not feeling any better

Hindi ko kasi alam. madalas naguguluhan na ako sa sarili ko. napabilis kong magalit, mainis, maaburido. FRIENDSHIP. I do not know if my high school friends are still the people i know. A lot of things has changed. What I do not know is that if they still care about our friendship. I always try to keep in touch but they seem to be moving away. I don't have any updates with them because they refuse to share. I always contact them to set some meet ups during vacation or special holidays but they always have a lot of reasons. "Kapag ayaw, maraming dahilan." and I'm getting tired. I feel so rejected and I'm so degraded. Then everytime someone contact me and set some meet up, even if i have classes, overnight project, i will leave everything just for them. Then here's my bestfriend for five years who jut left me and traded me for a boyfriend. Her boyfriend didn't asked her to leave me but she did. Do you know the feeling? It hurts so much. Why do people have to ...

Tagged

And so I was tagged again. Ron has tagged me. This is my fourth time to be tagged actually. The first three was way back in my old blog and i never responded to any of those tags. haha. Maybe because I was so busy with my studies there in that old school. haha. and another is that I don't socialize that much with the other bloggers out there. Good thing is that I have made up to myself and I do socialize now. Weee. But anyways, I believe answering and responding to some unique tags will make the readers know the author more. and I guess, that's one of the purpose of blog. to communicate and know each other more. so when someone needs a companion, someone who can relate to you will give you a broad shoulder. ayt? Ok, so let's get it on. haha Rules: 1. Write about how much addicted you are towards something. 2. Don’t forget to include the percentage of ‘addictedness’ towards that thing. 3. All with one condition.. the total percentage must reach 100%. 4. You MUST tag others ...

Some Plans

I don't go to school for me to get a degree. I go to school for me to learn. I am so much interested with Math and Philosophy but then I took up a pre-med course. I know I've told this a lot of times that I took up nursing because of some "calling". I am happy with where I am now. And I am already reserving 2-? years of my life to be a missionary nurse. Then afterwhich, I will go to school again to pursue my love and interest in Math and Philo. I know it's not good to know that my life is planned until I get married. I live according to my plans and I am having no problem with it. But things has changed. A year from now, I will be a nurse already. A devoted nurse, yeah. Some things never came into my mind and now they keep on coming. Now I wanted to be a doctor. A pediatrician specifically. I am not always after the salary. I am ALWAYS after what i can do to make a difference. Continuing to medicine will take some 5 to 7 years of my life and with that I will have ...

Doubts

It's 1.30pm when me and my parents decided to vote for national election. At Precinct 131A, we found our names. As we enter, I almost forgot who I'm gonna vote. Tensed. That's what i felt at my first vote. Will my voice be heard? Have I voted wisely? I was able to fill up only 8 seats at senator's list. I wasted four remaining seats. ^sighs^. I realized that i wasted a part of my right as a citizen to be heard. I prepared much for this is my first time to feel i'm really a part of this country, the Philippines but i guess I came unprepared. I realized after submitting my form that in voting, we should fill all. Take my case for instance, I filled up only 8 names for senators, but still in the end, they will need 12. Balimbing issue: Well, I guess being balimbing is better than to stick around with something that is against your political sense. Personally, I won't stay to a party group if I'm really true to the oath i have given, real service to humanity. I...

Mother's Day

A mother is a chalice, the vessel without which no human being has ever born. She is created to be a life-bearer, cooperating with her husband and with God in the making of a child. What a solemn responsibility. What an unspeakable privelege. -- a vessel divinely prepared for the Master's use.. "her children arise and called her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her" -Proverbs 31:28 I love my mom so much. She is incomparable. No words can describe her. She raised us kind-hearted, God-fearing, open minded, understanding, determined. I am inspired by her everyday. The moment she wake up in the morning, fix herself, prepare breakfast for us, reminds us about the stuff we need and kisses us before we go to school and so on. She is very open to us and so are we. She is the only woman who made me cry whenever something bad happened, whenever she has burdens. Sometimes I feel I'm a failure because I didn't follow what they want me to be. But then, I know I am bet...

Why I'm for KABATAAN Party List

During my first class in Philippine Institution (Rizal Course), we were asked why a college student taking up a 4-year course have to study the life and works of Rizal. I dunno what came into my professor's mind to call me first. I know my answer was good but it wasn't my best. after i answer and take my seat, ideas sprouted into my mind and came into this thinking: "The youth is the hope of our nation," Rizal once said. I guess Claro M. Recto came into this thinking as well why he thought imposing such law to study the life and works of Rizal would be better for the youth to realize and understand their part as a citizen and of what they can do to make Philippines even better. It is through EDUCATION that the Filipino youth can make it possible. Every Filipino, i believe has a high level of determination and that's what makes us differ from other races. We are determined and are willing to work hard just to make dreams come true. to make a better living. But by n...

Crazy Over Webs

The night before the Premiere of Spiderman 3, i got invited by my co-bloggers (who I also treat as friends) invited me to a conference. Inside were Billy , Joe, Rens , Moses , Jhed , and me. We have agreed to watch it on its premiere day but Jhed can't to come with us because it's just an accident plan and he has work. He cannot make arrangements for rescheduling of shift because it's just a "biglaan" thing. It's Labor Day and it's Double Pay. Sayang din naman if papalampasin. lol. In the plan, we have agreed to meet at a coffee shop at around 2.30pm. the place? Mall of Asia. Going there, i got ashamed of myself as I pay my fare to a Manong driving a jeep. Instead of saying "Isa pong MoA (Mo-wa)" i told the driver "Isa pong Mall of Asia" and it made me laugh after. what a shame. it made my ass laugh to the extent I don't have a face to show. but anyway, I arrived at 3:15PM. hahaha. Mr. Average Joe came in first followed by Billy of ...
