ako si corbin!

isang nilalang mula sa isang all-girls school. at ngayo'y pumapasok na sa unibersidad ng pilipinas bilang isang CHK freshie. mahilig magbasa ng mga libro lalong-lalo na ang mga sinulat nina michael connelly, james patterson, lualhati bautista at nicholas sparks. nangungulila sa paglalaro ng softball. mahal na mahal ang pag-aaral ng arnis. mahilig tumunganga, mag-isip, magmuni-muni. at mahilig sa mga outdoor activities at mga hayop lalo na ang aking bebe.

desiderata

Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself. Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.

Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Exercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals; and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially, do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness. Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.

You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.

With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

The winds are blowing so hard today it feels like the trees are going to flyyy up up and awayy! It was announced this morning by DepED that only preschool and grade school classes are suspended due to the typhoon "igme" [nice name, huh?] It was signal no. 1 here in rizal and metro manila. But damn, the winds are really strong...and i liked it! It was like signal no. 2 to most of us since you can really see the trees swayiiing like the 'Womping Willow' in HP.

You can feel the wind and rain in your hair! and you cant see a thing because of the stupid strands of hair all over your face. if you're lucky enough you can taste 'em too.

The rains are so weird today. They will become strong then they will cease for a time...then become strong again! But I really dont mind the strong winds blowing...I dont care!

So uhm... Like last year, we were sent home again during lunch time. well actually, we were already supposed to start our class after lunch. I actually expected this to happen. Ganun naman palagi e. Papapasukin kami tapos papauwiin uli.

There's this certain incident that happened awhile ago that's funny. well i think it's funny. We were already going to return to class since its almost time. Then suddenly people starting shouted, cheered..downstairs and upstairs. People are 'spreading' rumors that it IS really suspended. We didnt took them seriously since many incidents liked that happened before. Then they rang the bell differently...they rang it 4-5 times and we all shouted and cheered even though we dont know what's the bell for!! I dunno why it's like that...yan lang talaga siguro nagagawa sa amin dahil sa school at gusto mo talagang umuwi. It was like a chain reaction - lol. Then we were asked to settle down inside our classrooms since our class encounter will be next week already! Then we saw someone passed thru carrying her bags. We all asked each other 'suspended nga ba talaga?!'. Then our class adviser told everyone na suspended na talaga...parang kami...'yay...' in a very bored tone - lol - naubusan na kami ng lakas para sumigaw.

[woah...this entry's kinda long...]

Kyra and I dared each other to cry - lol [ala pa naman kasi mga bus service namin]. Kahit napaka babaw ang pag iyak ko di pa rin ako naiyak - oh well.

We had double Biology since our OE teacher is not around...and gawd...I dont know if i can memorize all of the lessons we had!

Our house met already. I didnt see any familiar faces from the seniors that knows how to play softball! Hope Im wrong and i hope i was not able to look around very well.

Still have an algebra assignment to finish. Dont know how.
