citius, altius, fortius!

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.

taggity tag!



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.

Ooooh...blogspot got something new. Tagal na siguro nito...

anyway, this week is the most most hectic, most hell-ish week ever in my wholee whole school life!! Gawd, good thing almost everything is over...almost everything! only 2 more UT1s to go...and that, i think, would be given to us next week...

and what i said an entry ago... we had 4 tests each day. well we were supposed to be free of tests today...well except for a practical test in Lab... so nervous. Im gonna be the 2nd one to take it next week. Di ko kaya! How will I be able to finish mounting and focusing a microscope under time pressure?! and 1 minute lang?! And only a few...only a few got a perfect score of 20!! and you can only get a score of 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20! *sigh* And i got a week to worry all about it.

gaaaawd, OE practical test next wednesday! I havent thought of a creative name to describe my communication/thinking skills. I.am.not.creative.at.things.like.this.and.i.hate.this....so..god help me..please?  Im never creative at some things...or maybe all? Pleaaase magkaroon ng miracle at maging creative na lang ako bigla? hay naku...

anyway, i dont know what i got in Business Math...the equivalent i mean. But i dont care if its line of 8. Its my fault why i got that score. Should have  read the instructions first before answering them. So stupid...but i hope my score in algebra wont be the same. Hope its higher... And Bio...gawd. NO ERASURES? what does he think of us? perfect students who doesnt commit mistakes? Eh we cant avoid that! And were also under time pressure. Oh well, i dont expect to get a score of 90 and above... 

anyway, what else...Oh...APPPP! Gawd, ang sobrang dali!!! Pero grabe talaga. I studied for almost 3 hours last night almost memorizing chapter 1...i said almost...not totally. Well...parang alam mo na na hinde? Pero ala talagang pumapasok sa utak ko! Eh may dumating sa akin na balita na dapat memorize mo yung evaluation part ng chapter 3 & 4...daya ano? Buti na lang talaga at narinig ko yun! kung hindi....almost 20 points ang mawawala sa akin... And he didnt even change the order of the answers...tsk tsk... Well...good for me. lol

Softball. *grins* Halos lahat ng ka-group ko hindi alam na kami ang group 1. my first game this year, ever and i ended up being the pitcher again...i was assigned by ate karen. nice. i guess, she remembered me from last year's intramurals... She just said and pointed to me "Kaw ang pitcher natin" period. I guess i pitched fine...compared to the others [kapal ko]...I threw strikes *grins proudly*  I guess that's the only thing that i contibuted to the 2 games we played. Gawd, i think i need my eyeglasses during clubtime. I can't bat properly for heaven's sake. I was only able to bat the ball at least 3-4 feet away from me?! at almost foul ball pa siya! How humiliating... Almost all pitchers that i have seen can bat properly. eh ako? walaaa! or maybe nasa pitcher din yun? ganun kaya yun? hay naku... at full bases pa nun...gawd, they even said na "uy!! home run!" hay naku... hate it. I really hate it pag kami ang una sa batting...kahit kelan basta mag bat. ayaw ko...na. 

So i guess ito na?...woah...it took me almost 2 hours to finish this entry...
