Finale

                 People make two major choices in this world: holding on and letting go.  Soon, we will be leaving the portals of our school. Our high school days are numbered. In a matter of months, we will arrive to another higher stage of education: College life.

            This is never the end, I guess. Whenever I think of ICT, it's always the air-conditioned room, my free time to sleep, and it's always a free time for everyone. Even though I have to admit that I've learned just, um, a little bit (haha) because (alam niyo naman diba? -_-) well just that. But of course I have to say that I've learned how to manage the web and make some html files and edit my photos. This is it. We have to leave our free time. whatever. Although we are somewhat short of lessons because of the limited time, I had learned enough things I can apply in my everyday life.  I have discovered that it is never too late to accomplish the things we’ve always wanted to do as long as we’re determined to.

            So… is this goodbye? Temporarily, maybe. Of course, we all have to let go. But as we close the doors of high school, let’s not just leave a mark: let’s make this legacy lasting and worth cherishing. And remember that anytime, we can always visit the place where we spent most of our lives developing our potentials and molding ourselves into better individuals.

My Dream, My Future

If ever I think of something, it's always a way of day dreaming. Probably because I never want anybody know what it is. And probably because--it's just such.

My dream before was to get all I wanted. But was that suppose to be the very thing? Well I guess not. I don't have specific dream whenever they ask me what it is or when they totally ask me to write everything down. It's because what's always in there is: I want to be a (course/ambition)someday, I want to build a house for my family, I want to finish my studies. Bah! It's the main chorus of everyone.

Well I only have one dream and that will always be my future: To stay as who I am now. That's all.

C H A N G E begins with me

         Change is not just an inward process. It also projects outward, influencing everything that stands on its way. I can make people change. I can make things change.

                However, before doing those heroic-slash-spiritual acts, I also have to take a pause and think of myself. Am I good enough? Do I have the guts in me? Do I have the necessary characteristics, the “changing” traits in order to “heal” the people around me? Am I influencing enough?

                Okay, I cannot start anything if I’ll fill my life with so many questions. I have to move. I have to act. I have to start within me.

                I believe that I am not perfect. I am just a typical girl who commits mistakes, has flaws, and regrets things afterwards. I am also a typical girl who can lessen those mistakes, hide my flaws, and take extra-careful decisions so that I have nothing to regret in the end. I am aware of my potentials. I am aware that I can enhance these potentials to develop a better identity.

                Change for the better or change for the worse? I’d go for the first one, definitely.
