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.

heh. pamatay ang vigil. i was so tempted to fall asleep during one of those meditations/chantings whatever, literally ha. i wanted to just fall and sleep! wahaha! but even though i wanted to, it was impossible! i don't want to fall on a burning candle, mindyou, and i was surrounded by candles! and pixie's candle was producing smoke due to some unknown reason. haha! weird candle. sobrang kaloka yun. ang hirap huminga. :p

but still, i found this year's vigil much more enjoyable than the first one i've been to. kasi naman diba hindi tama na hanggang madaling araw kaming nagchachant at nagmemeditate! at least we were off the hook by 11pm. pero nakatulog ako ng 12 something. at nagising ako ng mga 3 kasi may mga ibang year na excited magdawn mass at nagising ng mga 3 at nagiingay sa mga banyo nila. haha!

nakakatuwa yung talk na napuntahan namin ni krisel. we thought na tungkol sa christmas yung talk. kasi yun yung unang word sa title ng talk e christmas. but i didnt even hear the word christmas during the talk. i dunno...nakakainspire si msHilario na magtalk. sheesh. she even declared that she was not fit for sharing the good news. parang kami: WEH! haha! akala ko nga makakatulog ako sa talk since krisel said that our speaker would be a nun. (whoooops. erase erase) haha! but seriously, i agree with msH...nothing happens by chance. :) and i can prove that.

guess what? haha! i've received a number of coughgirlyaccessoriescough. haha! ugh...does that imply something? tell me! does that imply something??

XD

...weird people!
