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.

i had my first...ahem...guitar lesson this afternoon along with a neighborhood friend and her younger bro... im still not sure about the fee though since the teacher seemed quite generous...bout teaching us even without a fee! kuya neil is what you can say a very different music teacher... having endured the wrath of quite a few terror teachers in the past, he seemed to be determined not turning into one... in fact, the lesson earlier was quite enjoyable.. even though we werent able to hold our guitar for actual strumming... he just showed us how to actually hold the guitar properly that's all. for the first time in eternity...i was able to fully comprehend those notes! ha! hindi samin naturo sa school! oo, naturo man nila yun during our middle elementary years...hindi nila kami ginawan ng mga exercises! unlike with kuya neil... ha! natuto rin ako finally! *grins smugly* he actually gave us an assignment which i finished a few minutes after kuya dismissed us! anyway, saturday will be our next session with kuya... maybe after a few recaps of what transpired during today's lesson we'll finally be able to hold the guitar!
it looked like kuya neil and i share the same likes in music...hehe...mga kajologan ng dating henerasyon!

oh...krisel will be dropped off tomorrow...here... in 7 in the bloody morning! ka aga aga...naman talaga oh! i wont be surprised if we'll get tired of each other's faces pag dating ng tanghali! and i have no bloody idea what we will do in the span of 10 hours straight! damn...

im actually wanting a digital camera...but i dont think my money will be sufficient yet... i havent even counted them yet! but im hoping to be able to get a hold of one before the end of summer!

during the past days... ive been playing cards with my cousin and her husband! my cousin is 7 months pregnant! napaka saya talaga ng mundo! may bata na dito pagdating ng bagong school year! anyway... natutunan ko na kung pano maglaro ng tong-its...ganyan ba spelling? saka pusoy dos! yeah man... lol
