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.

funny how time flies so quickly when your enjoying what you do. and funny how things may seem so trivial, so insignificant when you know you have all the time in the world to do the stuffs you do. and funny how difficult it is to realize that you don't actually own time, that you don't actually have all the time in the world and that everything has it's own end on it's own pace. and funny how things may seem so sentimental when you're in the same state as i am or should i say the same age?

presently, it would seem that i'm in a state of denial. i couldn't accept the fact that something important to me, something that has been part of me for a period of time will be ending in a few weeks. i couldn't accept the possibility that i may never see the people that has crossed my path and has made footprints in my being. so hard it is to accept that we will be parting ways especially when i am enjoying their company the most.

ang hirap nga naman. kung kelan ka nagiging masaya sa mga kasama mo, kung kelan mo nakikita ang kahalagahan nila sayo, doon lumalapit ang posibilidad na hindi na kayo magkita. nakukulangan ako sa oras. para bang ang bilis dumaan ng panahon. ang hirap din lalo na't hindi pa ako sigurado sa kinabukasan ko. hindi ako sigurado kung kaya ko ngang tahakin ang landas na gusto ko. mahal mo ang ginagawa mo pero parang alam mo na hindi mo kaya. para bang alam mo na mas marami ang magaling kesa sayo. para bang dadaan ka lang ng tingin ng mga tao dahil wala ka namang nagagawang higit sa ordinaryo. para talagang nakukulangan ako sa oras para makapag desisyon. ayoko tuloy matapos ang summer. pagkatapos nito, iba na. pagkatapos nito, hindi ko alam.
