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.

Padagdag nang padagdag ang mga gawain namin sa school. Buti naman kahit papano nababawasan siya. Pero tama ba yun? Halos lahat ng mga projects at paper works namin sunod sunod ang deadline?! At napaka laking hassle silang lahat. Kung kelan pa matatapos ang 4th Quarter dun pa nila sinisimulang ibigay ang mga bwiset na projects. Akala naman kasi ng mga teachers na sila lang yung subject na inaasikaso namin. Hindi ata nila narerealize na marami po sila. At kami iisa lang. Iisa lang po utak namin... natutunaw na nga ata e.

Kulang na nga ako sa tulog eh. Nung isang gabi nga e.. tinapos ko yung project sa english. At anong oras na ako nakatulog? 2.30 in the damn morning. At may pasok pa kinabukasan ha. 3.3o hours of sleep... Sinong di maloloka dun?

At habang dumadaan ang mga araw... palapit nang palapit ang mga deadline ng mga project. May isa pa ngang paper work sa English na di ko naman alam kung paano sisimulan. Bakit ba kasi nabuhay pa si Shakespeare sa mundo? Tuloy... milyong estudyante ang namamatay dahil sa kanya... Magsalita ka ba naman kasi nang gaya niya e! Meron pa yang mga TESTS. At buti na lang hindi sila sunod sunod...may ilang araw lang naman na pagitan.

Bukas kukuha kami ng PACTPOIS. Career test daw yun... sabi nila. So buti na lang at ibibigay na yun. Para naman malaman ko na kung san ako pwede magtrabaho diba?

Tama na nga ito...
