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.

*sigh* does anybody know when will we start classes? i still haven't started the REQUIRED reading material. heaven knows i've tried reading shakespeare but in the end...my laziness won over my will. hah. but then again, we only have one more year of shakespeare...and one more year of that freakin' IP! wahahaha!

aaargh. i'm bored again. softbelles has been the only thing that made me rise up in the early mornings. unfortunately, it will end in a few more meetings. and i'm afraid i won't see my bunsos and coaches again after this summer. god, i'll miss them. but hey...i might convince my mom to let me join again despite her not wanting me to. as if she's the one who's paying and she's not bothered anymore since i'm commuting. (yay!)

and guess what? we'll be having the tournament against Alabang's summer camp. and on my birthday, no less. how nice, eh? and here i was, hoping that i would finally have a loooong sleep. hah. i just hope we'll win since one of my bunsos saw how they are playing.

haha. naalala ko yung time na tinuturuan kami mag slide sa softball. coach ana and coach rozie was holding both our arms and we ran towards the base! wahahaha! ang benta. sumakit pwet ko dun ha! and i definitely know somebody caught it on camera. *shudders* which i think will be shown on the day of the party... at sana naman makapunta na ako dun. ;)
