this awesome day reminds me that there's still hope


These are my co-pathways volunteers. I feel blessed that i met these great people with great visions, passions, intelligence, humor and love for our country. I may be too idealistic but this is the kind of people i would love to spend time working with.With them, i learned really great new things: like i learned that plastic for foods in fasfoods like jollibee is better than papers...more environment friendly; that sometimes our weaknesses are the streghts of others and vice versa and that we need each other... no man is an island..; that you can't help the poor unless you are poor yourself...and many many many wisdom that i may not remember per words but will have impact in my heart. I've met someone who call herself a professional bum. She just quit her job a month ago and she was glowing with happiness when she was saying that..as if it was the best decision she made in her life. She was working in a corporate setting for 7 years and she got really tired...so she quit and plan to take a very different path. I also met another one: a dentist in profession but hopes to be a preschool teacher... really there so much to tell about them.. but.. errrr i've no more time. ill continue next time.

sum it up: AWESOME DAY FOR AWESOME PEEPS! :-)

June 30, 2011
I was supposed to sleep. Im just checking if my camera SD and my camera are properly working already…but sadly it’s not. And now, one of the parents of my students is texting me.. may mali na naman daw sa ginawa naming mga homeworks. The conclusion, she thinks that I am not doing my work properly..
Other than this, earlier, my heart almost bursts from trying hard not to cry in front of my colleagues. Another parent spoke to my boss about my “mistake” in teaching his son.
Haay June. Why does it have to end worse? Im not a machine ok? Im a human being not a human doing.. yes, I commit mistakes but I don’t know why I keep on repeating same mistakes. Am I damned? I feel like an idiot. What the heck?!
Yeah, I know this world is not easy. Very difficult indeed, but why does it have to be sooo damn hard like this?
What is wrong with me? Im getting tired but it seems that my efforts are not enough to suffice the demands of the kids, the parents and co-workers. Why do people think mostly about money? Why do they sell their integrity in exchange of money?
It is not in my vocab to quit but I feel like quitting now. I feel that I am an idiot; how come I am teaching… yet I keep on repeating the same mistakes? Was I too tired? What do I do? WOOOOO! Crying is supposed to make me feel better. But how come it makes my breathing so difficult… and my eyes… blurred. Okay, here I am crying a river or two again…
Three of my closest friends feel more or less the same way towards work and personal things… what is with june 3oth? I don’t like working to please people. I like to work for a cause…I am motivated when I know that my efforts are worth it… BUT these days, I can’t find any motivation. People are less appreciative and considerate. I felt like they think we are not humans, instead machines that are destined to serve them.
GOD, I know you’re listening. Do these things make me better? Well then, I accept it. But please help me have more patience and strengths to face this trial…

Expenses :)

I am not fond of collecting high tech gadgets. But i can feel the need for some. One of which is a laptop! Last Sat, i bought one (HP mini red) for my sister Iren. Today, with the help of my boss (who came full packaged with her family), i purchased my own Toshiba Laptop. :D

Those are expensive but it'll be worth it. Mine will journey with me to my success... :D and to my immediate future status: MA student! :)

Thank you God for the blessings!!! So good to feel really really blessed! :)

Life Begins When You Do


Life Begins When You Do is based upon on Mary Anne's famous poem - her statement of purpose - Live with Intention:
Walk to the edge.
Listen hard. Laugh. Play with abandon.
Practice wellness.
Continue to learn.
Choose with no regret.
Appreciate your friends.
Lead or follow a leader.
Do what you love.
Live as if this is all there is.
