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.

Ruby, I wonder where you got that idea that I'm a potential writer? That's something new. ;p I'm not like you guys... who really have this passion for writing...anything. You can easily put your thoughts into creative writing. Mind the word creative. All I write are journal entries! ;p I can't remember if you have read anything that I wrote...which are none...except these entries of mine. And I am really wondering, oh dear stalker of mine, where you got that idea! ;p I havent even entertained that idea! Me? A writer? An author? *shudders at the thought* Let me check the dictionary first... Maybe there's another definition of the word writer other than 'someone who can write'. Okay, *pauses* there's no other definition for it. How I wish I can write, you know, creatively. ;p

"a potential writer [if she only, only bothers to pursue it]"

Where did that came froooom? *mouth slightly open* So, youre the first one that actually mentioned that. *raise eyebrows*

Waaaaaah! na overwhelm na pala... *snickers* Wala ka pa namang nababasa na gawa ko diba? I mean, wala nga akong ginagawang kung ano man e ;p

*****

Too much. It's just too much. All these school-works are driving me insane! This is the only time that I was able to squeeze in blogging even though I was able to go online at least once each day. And the fact that I'm using another journal... makes me lazy to go online and type my thoughts. Yes, another journal... the old fashioned one. I dont want to call it a diary ;p Its too... girly? lol. You know, all these "Dear Diary" crap of the young girls. No offense to those who still use 'em.

*****

Can you believe that they are planning on 'squeezing' me in the varsity team even without a TRYOUT?! Damn them! It's not that I dont want to be part of it, it's just unfair. And the fact that they are already complete even without me, they are planning on replacing someone with me. So it means that they will not decide on my position. I think they will remove someone that is the least 'best' and I will take whatever position they have. Also the fact that the only position that they have seen me play is being the pitcher! I know that position is already taken by someone whom I know is obviously much better than I. I dont know why they insist on putting me on the team. Okay, I'll say that I'm good. But not all the time! I know that they know that! Ive said that to some of them already. But they again insist that Im not what I say I am. But of course Im not actually sure about all this. Ive only heard one side of this argument. I guess I have to wait for friday to actually understand this.

Kam chan my dear victim, as the dictionary had told you already my precise point that a writer is anyone who writes... let me ask you: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING EVERYTIME YOU FREAKIN ENCODE A BLOG ENTRY??????? AND YOU HAVE THE ERM..AUDACITY TO ASK ME IF I...I REPEAT HAVE SEEN ANY OF YOUR F***inly GOOD WORKS???? *calms down* What I mean is that just looking at your poems, the way you write I practically could spot the writer hiding somewhere there. The passion blooms, the crimson rose that buds out of someone who wants to express their vehement on paper/ on *ahem* "dear diary"s and then after that YOU have created a utopia of your own...The passion comes on later but the writing has started long ago :] if you only, only nurture it><

Hey about the varsity thing...I know I don't have any business on that topic but I agree with you...that is...seting aside that the rumor goes like this "alam niyo ba ang galing niyan si Kamille" o kaya "Si Kamille? Magaling yan..." hahaha oh well its always up to my victim's desire to be part of the *AHEM* varsity or not....

Once again.....I the alter ego of your friend the angel-vamp who stalks you LONGS FOR YOUR BLOOD...as Lles is my little vampire YOU ARE MY LITTLE WEREWOLF *transforms into bi-chan again* *boinks out* *runs for her life before Kam chan decides to dissect her/ send her off to mars* *exits*
