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.

I dont know how I felt when I got my report card. Numbed and shocked I guess. Shallow, I know. But... an 86 in Bio Class because of I didnt pass my Lab Notebook?! Is that even right? I guess it was. But...*insert all profanity*...Oh hell.

I didnt want to face my parents when I got home. There were expecting all line of 9's! I am not perfect!

Both my parents were shock when they saw the card...

Dad: Ang baba naman!! 86?!? *biglang tahimik* Oh well...ganyan ang buhay!

Ha! Tama ka o dakilang itay! Ganyan talaga ang buhay! Baba...tataas...baba...tataas

*****

Biotrip na namin bukas. Ibig sabihin ng biotrip... pupunta kami ng Bauan, Batangas para makapag interact sa mga yamang dagat at yamang gubat! Kami ay makikipagkamayan sa mga corals na nasa oceanfloor. At makikipag picturan sa mga isdang tulad ni nemo.

Dalawang araw kami sa aming biotrip. At sana naman hindi umulan bukas upang kami ay makapag interact sa isang bundok na aming aakyatin. Sana ako'y handa sa lahat na maaaring mangyari bukas...Hindi lang ako handa kung biglang may dadating na mga rebelda ng NPA at kami ay bibihagin. Pero masaya yun hindi ba? Matatagalan kami sa isang isla na walang magawa kundi matakot sa maaaring gawin ng mga rebelde. Pero...imposible iyon sapagkat napakalayo ng Zamboanga sa Batangas!
