On the micro blogging, social network site called Twitter, I saw one tweet from a user, he asks:
How can 200 pesos be enough for one week of vacation?
I tried to think how. Then, suddenly I realized, 200 pesos is more than enough.
Now is the last week of my three-week vacation due to semester break in school. I am just at home, living normally and simply, eating three times a day. In the first two weeks of my vacation, I am just using the computer, surf the internet at home, sleep whenever I want, think of anything for my blog. I once went out with friends, but it didn't cost me much. I play with our cats, I take care and feed the little chicks, I go to our mini farm in front of our house. Some nights, my family cooks in our mini farm, and there we will eat our dinner.
Every night, I go outside to see the stars and I love to see stars in the dark sky. Then I will sleep after using the computer, wake up in the morning and welcome the light and heat of the sun. I go to our farm and smell the fresh air.
Wherever I am, I pray. When someone asks me for a prayer to the needy, I pray. When things go wrong, I pray. When I see the image of Mother Mary in our garage, I pray. Everywhere, I pray.
Essential and best things in life are free. Things we can do does not necessarily needs money.
Thinking what to write in a blog.
Feeding the pets with the foods in the house.
You eat what you want with what's in the fridge.
Walking outside your house.
Looking above and see the stars.
Use gadgets you have.
Breathe the fresh air.
Pray to God.
All of those are free. There are so many things in life that you can do without your money. You can use your resources, things you have in your house so you don't need to cost a single peso. Your parents already provided you much, they think that 200 pesos is just additional to what they can provide.
I am not saying that you should do what I exactly do. I just want to emphasize how simple living can give you satisfaction, knowing you already have enough.
Appreciate the little things in life, you will feel rich.
You are with your family.
You are eating three times a day.
You sleep in a comfortable bed.
You can take a bath in a bathroom.
You can talk with God every time you want.
Many more..
You are rich already. Just learn to make use of your resources, you don't have to cost a thing.
200 pesos is enough for a week, more than enough. If only you would live simple and appreciative in life.
You know, some people don't know how to have 200 pesos within a week.
But you, you already have it. You are lucky, you are blessed.

We Are All People
We are all people living with God
Life is good, don't make it bad
Face all problems, walk against the flood
Live with gladness, don't be sad.
We are all people in the ground
There's no God shall be found
Only God above shall be crowned
Join the peace, live safe and sound
We are all people who soar high
We can join the clouds in the sky
No matter how high you can fly
You will always still look high
We are all people, just people
You can lift yourself, be ready to fall
Lose yourself, God will call
Live your life, God is above all.
Life is good, don't make it bad
Face all problems, walk against the flood
Live with gladness, don't be sad.
We are all people in the ground
There's no God shall be found
Only God above shall be crowned
Join the peace, live safe and sound
We are all people who soar high
We can join the clouds in the sky
No matter how high you can fly
You will always still look high
We are all people, just people
You can lift yourself, be ready to fall
Lose yourself, God will call

Those are common tweets by people on the micro blogging, social networking site called Twitter. People on the internet, called netizens, are creating their accounts on Twitter. Twitter users are called Tweeps.
One fact on Twitter, when you create an account, you are an egg. Twitter is a Bird. We are all eggs from the same bird when we create Twitter accounts. We are hatched when we create our own profile and put our own photos.
Twitter accounts multiplied so fast! Netizens created their accounts to follow people and artists, to interact with them. Some made themselves popular through Twitter. Some artists are followed by millions. Some represent TV shows. Some just tweet information and facts of life. Some shares quotations via Twitter. But, who/what should we follow?
In real life, we should be following people who has good influences and reputations. Those people who can direct our ways to be good too. Who/what we follow can represent who we are. Good people follow the good people. Otherwise.
Also, in reality, celebrities and high-profile people have their supporters or fans. These celebrities might not be celebrities without these supporters. That's how important supporters are. But, there are these celebrities who are snob, just because they are high-profile, they tend to snob fans. But, supporters will celebrities very much when these celebrities are very close to the fans. And, celebrities who are close to fans are more likely to have solid supporters, they won't choose you for being famous but fans will choose you for bein'sg kind and friendly. Dear celebrities, FANS are Powerful in your business.
Same things can happen on virtual world, particularly on Twitter.
On Twitter, we follow people. We also follow brands, shows, and other informative accounts. Following on Twitter is just the same with following people in reality. There are celebrities and supporters.
I have my twitter account. I also tweet celebrities to follow me, or tweet me, or anything. But, my purpose is to know who among them should I support. I love those people on twitter who knows they are celebs but they interact with their fans, like a friend. I support those people.
One of the celebs I follow is Ms. Kylie Padilla ( @kakaii1993 ). She is very kind, she follows random people on Twitter, she interacts with different people. She is so simple, so kind, and so nice. I tweeted her "@kakaii1993 Please follow me :)" just once, and she did follow me. I may be lucky to be noticed, I am more lucky to be followed. I am now a solid fan of her. There are times I tweet her, and I sometimes get a reply. When I look at her tweets, I can see her tweets with her fans. Oh, this lady is very kind. She gives time to her fans. She appreciates her fans. Of all the celebs I follow, she is the most I love to follow. She is a must-follow celebrity for me. :)
I also follow this random person, he is Marcelo Santos III ( @akoposimarcelo ). He is a very humble guy, a typical normal person followed by many tweeps on Twitter. He is very close to his followers, his tweets are closely related to his followers, because he was just a normal guy turned kind-of-celebrity through his writings on YouTube. He became popular with his writings, he was shown on TV, and known in the internet. But, I think he earned many followers not just because of his writings, but because he is very kind to his supporters. He and his followers are like Barkada (Group of friends) on Twitter. Recently, he published his own book, and a lot of his followers bought the book, the demand is so high. See, when you really are close to your followers, though you're just a normal person, followers will support you.
I followed this couple on Twitter, they are called JAMICH ( @ilovejamich ). They are couple whose hobby is to do cute, awesome, inspirational, God-inspired videos. They are very influential, their videos carry essential lessons in life. They also bring entertainment to people. As of now, they're true story video, By Chance, was the most watched video in the Philippines via YouTube. They also treat their followers like friends. They are humble, good model for couples of this generation. They already achieved a lot in life, yet they still remain humble and continue inspiring people through their videos and tweets. I remember then, I was their 45000th follower, but now they already have around 475000 followers. I follow them because of their good influences to people.
Recently I followed Jack Vidgen ( @JackVidgen ). He is an Australian singer, he won the 5th season of Australia's Got Talent. He is popular in his country, in the whole Australia. What I like about him is, he follows and tweets his fans, not just Australians but also Filipinos and other nationalities. Last October 26, it was the 18th Birthday of my Filipino friend, she asked Jack to greet her through a video in YouTube. Jack made the video, exactly on the birthday of my friend. Isn't it awesome? He is very kind to his followers and supporters. I followed him on Twitter not because I want to, but because he is a must-follow celeb on Twitter.
I followed a Pinoy Pride on Twitter, she is Sandara Park ( @krungy21 ). She is popularly known as Dara in her Korean Pop Group, 2NE1. Her career started when she joined Star Circle Quest and became part of the star search. She became an actress and joined a number of Filipino movies. She's known being a Krung-Krung in the show business. Her career boomed when she became a Korean singer in 2NE1. I consider her a Pinoy Pride, because she is popular being a Korean star, she is still very happy and proud to be in the Philippines. Just recently, Sandara Park went to Philippines by surprise. She went here to join the Filipinos to watch a KPop Band, Big Bang Alive Tour in the Philippines. Sandara Park even toured in the Philippines. When she left the Philippines and go back to work in Korea, she tweets that she will miss the Philippines. She tweets, she will come back in the Manila, she will miss the Filipinos, she wants 2NE1 be invited for a concert in the Philippines. I follow Sandara Park, she loves the Philippines as well as I am.
I follow also @michaelbitoyGMA, @MyJaps, @whianwamos, @tanyamarkova, @SamPinto_, @vicegandako, @annli and other local artists. I also follow @taylorswift13, @ddlovato, @onedirection, @itsmidnightred, @carlyraejepsen and some other international artists.

Toddler Horror Experience
Halloween is fast approaching. I see many horror stories in the television, I can read many horror stories on social networks such as Twitter and Facebook, I see horror photos in the internet.
Horror stories are everywhere as well as ghost or spirits are everywhere. Many people experience having paranormal activities, an encounter of ghosts in their life. Every year, different experiences are told by different people. This makes paranormal to be one of the branches of science, fact.
I also have my horror story to tell, I experienced this when I was still a toddler. There are times that I experience some scary things, but I guess those are just nothing but a feeling. But this story, this really happened, I think I was 5 or 6 years old that time.
Our house only has one bedroom, the whole family sleeps in that bedroom. There is a double-deck bed and we have a bed on the floor. Though I'm still young, I was the one sleeping on the upper part of the double-deck. Beside our bed, we have a window where we can see our garage.
One night, we have to sleep early so we can wake up early in the morning. In the midnight, I suddenly woke up and heard strange noise outside the house. So, I tried to look at the window and.. I was shocked and cried aloud for what I have seen. A saw an old man wearing old-fashioned clothes walking... with no head! I was really shocked, cried aloud, and went down on the bed of my parents! Everyone was awaken in my loud voice while crying. And they were asking, what happened? Why am I crying? I have nothing to answer, can't explain what just happened, maybe because of my shock. So, after I cried, we all slept, I stayed in my parents' bed to sleep.
Imagine, a toddler seeing an old man walking without head. whew.
For many nights, I remain scared of the incident. I always sleep on my parents' bed. I don't want to sleep in my bed, not just because I'm alone but because I was really afraid. Thinking that headless man will show up again.
There is this man whom I call 'Lolo'. He's not really my grandfather, but he's old to be called Lolo or grandfather. He was the father of the friend of my father. And I usually go to his yard which is just near our house. Suddenly, he accidentally died. Very soon, he was put in the coffin, and friends and relatives visited him.
Since our family are friends of 'Lolo', we went to his burial. My Dad and I went close to the coffin and see the 'Lolo' inside. And suddenly, I cried so loud! I got everyone's attention. I told my Dad, "Daddy, he was the old man I saw in the garage! He doesn't have his head but I know that's him."
Since the day I saw the headless man, I haven't seen 'Lolo'. Until I saw him in the coffin, with head.
From that day, my fright was relieved, I can sleep again in my bed. I sleep normally again but I can never forget that horrible experience.
Just this day, I knew something about that experience. The television show, entitled Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho, said that, when you see a man walking without head, you should tell them and bury their clothes on the ground so they will be saved from death.
I felt guilty. Because I was still a toddler, I haven't knew about that. If only I knew, Lolo might have lived longer. Though it was just a belief, nothing's bad to do it. Well, I could just pray for him now and that's all I can do. May his soul be peaceful wherever he is now.
This story is written with everything I remember and additional things from my mother.

Diet
Diet - the process in which a man does to reduce or maintain weight. This is the act of eating less food, compare to the usual food being eaten. This can be accompanied by exercise or any physical fitness to help reducing weight and get an ideal body figure.
It's hard to diet.
There are too many countries, different kinds of foods, different dishes to cook, different delicious foods in many variants. We eat in the morning for breakfast, in the noontime for lunch, in the evening for dinner, and snacks during midnight and anytime in the day. Sometimes, when you feel bored, you will eat. We see everyone eating foods, everyone is eating.
How can you have your diet when too many foods surround you? What makes it harder is that you love eating. It's hardest when you have all the means to have or buy or cook foods. You just can't resist, you will eat. Your tummy will tell you "Feed me" from time to time.
There are many people who does diet. Those people who wants to get slim, to maintain the figure, or just to fit in their shirts or pants. But, not everyone succeeds in dieting. In my opinion, only 30% succeeds in dieting, the rest, they're all eating much.
Psychologically, the more you think of diet, the more you crave for food.
So, instead of doing your diet, you will eat. The more you hide the food, the more you'll search for it.
That's the challenge of diet. You have all the foods on your house, you can eat everything you want, you can buy the foods you want. But, you want to diet. You have to sacrifice the happiness of eating just to have diet.
Which will you choose? The happiness of being slim or the happiness of eating? This is the challenging question. Which ever you choose, you'll be happy, but sad too. You have to be sad avoiding foods to get the happiness of being slim. You will be happy eating foods regularly but you'll be quite sad not being slim. Which will you choose?
Dieting can be compared to love. In love, the more you avoid the one you love, the more it will hurt you, but it can make you better. In dieting, the more you avoid to eat food, the more you'll be hungry, but it can make you better.
Love can also be a good inspiration for dieting. When you love someone, you'll do your best to lose weight and be slim just to look perfect with that someone. But, if someone really loves you, he/she will love you just the way you are.
To sum it up, Diet is really hard. It's up to you if you want to, or not. But, whichever you will choose, make sure it's your best choice, or else you'll end up regretting. You can eat more, you can eat less, do what can make you happy.
Me, I tried to. But, I didn't succeed. I chose to eat more. I don't have regrets because I am happy. Though I am fat, I can determine who among my friends are real, those who won't leave me hanging. I am happy. One more, my parents supply us foods we want, because when they see us happy eating, they are happy too and they feel rich. We are the wealth in our family. I am happy being me, I am happy with foods. Are you?

Future Professionals
It's Summer Vacation. Students are now on their summer parties (closing parties) to celebrate the one school year being together. Students, with their teachers, are now on resorts and beaches for a summer vacation. Summer parties are very special most likely to the fresh graduates of the recent school year.
These parties are very essential for students, in a way they can celebrate after they overcome all hardships in one school year. A celebration of passing all subjects through the unity and cooperation of one another, and the determination and perseverance of individuals. Such parties will put all students not for studying, but for enjoying a moment together, to use their energy to be happy, a recreational activity to rest while having fun.
Grace, Kim, Gerald, Mary and Mark are graduates of the recent school year, they were together for their whole high school years, they were classmates and best friends as well. Since first year of high school, they were already in a group called Future Professionals. Future Professional was built with their dreams, the dream to be a professional in their chosen career. Grace wants to be a doctor. Kim wants to be an engineer. Gerald wants to be a police. Mary is to be an accountant. Mark is to be a professional teacher.
During their summer party, they talked about going on college. Will they be together in college, where to study, how hard college education will be.
Kim: I already have my plan for college, I'll be entering the school where Engineering is at its best. You know guys, I want to be with you, but I have to achieve my dream. It was approved by my parents too. Sorry but I can't be with you, everyone there are all Engineering students.
Mark: Kim, don't be sorry, we understand. All of us wants to be professional with the best quality. Right guys?
Gerald: Yes, you're right. Actually, last few days, I thought of going to the military academy for my career, of course you can't go there too, guys. (laughs)
Mary: Okay guys, well just now, I think it's better if I enter the school where Certified Public Accountant topnotch are. The school producing the top notching accountants! Someday, you'll see me on the news. (laughs)
Grace: Good idea guys, let's get our degree on the best schools. I'm just glad, I think you won't get mad at me now. After this summer party, I'll fly to America for college, i'll be leaving you guys. I don't know if i'm glad now, or sad.
Mark: Hey, you should be glad! That's great! I would be very proud of you, proud to all of us!
Grace: Thanks Mark! How bout you, where will you be for college?
Mark: If only I could fly with you. :)
Whole group: That's what love is.
Mark: I really want to. But, my full scholarship is just applicable here in our country. I can't fly for now, but when I'm successful, I will fly to all countries with my one and only Grace.
Group: Awwww.. That's sweet.
Grace: Awww.. Mark, I love you, we'll go successful first and let's get married someday. Wait for me, promise me you'll wait for me. (hugs Mark)
Mark: I promise.
Group: Awww.. we'll watch you Mark. We will be the eyes of Grace wile she's abroad.
Classmates: Hey go to our room, evening is set, let's eat!
Group: Okay! Come on guys.
SO the whole class went to the room and ate their dinner. After that, they played some games and slept. Next day morning, they woke up early and be ready to get home. Suddenly, the teacher cried and the students went to their teacher.
Teacher: Guys, I am your last teacher for high school. Remember, high school is the best experience to be happy while studying. In college, I want all of you to study well, be serious, I know you can't visit me much on our school, but I know someday we'll meet again for a reunion and all of you will be professional on your chosen career, like me. Guys, please promise me, do your best on your studies. You're now done calling your teachers, in college, you'll call them professors. But, we can't say that they are better just because they teach in college.
Remember: "Sometimes, teachers are better than professors." But, do the same treatment, whoever your professor is, no matter how hard that subject is, you should pass and learn on your career. Give me a hug!
Class: Group Power Hug! Thank You Maam! You're the best and you'll always be remembered! (Tears fall)
The party was done, everyone went home. The group of Future Professional went first to the photo shop to have a studio photo. Remembrance and souvenir for the high school years. Then, the group went home.
Grace flew to America. Gerald packed up and entered the military academy. Kim went to her school and be enrolled. Mary was admitted on her school for college. Mark processed his scholarship for college.
Mark: Thank God. I have this scholarship for college. But, this is just for the first semester. What if I fail in one subject? What if I can't pay the tuition? What if I can't study anymore? It will be the end of my career. Oh forget the what-ifs, I can do this.
During their college years..
Grace can speak very fluent in English, she learn all by herself. She can stand on her own feet now, unlike then, she's always with her boyfriend who is Mark, the academic scholar. Grace studies very well, inspired to be successful and be married with Mark. Although, sometimes she misses Mark, but it gives her a better feeling knowing Mark is waiting for her. There are some guys who tries to fetch Grace, they are all busted.
Grace really does love Mark, long distance relationship is not a hindrance for love. The college years of Grace went fine, very fine. She was one of the most excellent on her school. Soon, she'll graduate with honors. A dedicated and well-trained doctor.
Kim is getting average grades, she is likely to fail but continue striving just to pass all subjects. She's having a hard time with her subjects though she loves mathematics. "It's not just about loving mathematics, it's about loving the course." She loves her dream to be an engineer that's why she studies very hard. She sacrificed her love life because she can't handle the two. She had to choose between dream and love. She left her boyfriend, and focused on studying.
"I know love can wait. I have a lifetime for my love life, but now is not the time. I should focus on my studies first because now is the time. Someday love will cross my path in God's perfect time." Kim is in an engineering school, full of guy students, guys would really court Kim but she declines. Just 5 years to study in college, the rest can be for my love life and happiness, of course that includes her success on being an engineer.
Gerald was almost kicked out of the military academy. Everyone there are doing their best to be a police. But, some students there are doing bad things, against the rules of the academy, immediate actions, and some are doing their tricks to graduate soon. Gerald is not one those students. Gerald is doing all the appropriate actions on the academy, he follows the rules and regulations. Gerald was not supposed to be kicked out, those bad students supposed to. But, on the last year before graduation, those bad students heard a rumor that Gerald will be rewarded an award for being outstanding. Those bad students set up a situation, they showed to all military officers there that Gerald was a bad person at all. The bad students cleaned themselves, and made Gerald's reputations so dirty.
The military officers was blinded by the situation, Gerald was almost kicked out but he was given one chance. Gerald used that chance to be cleaned again. "I am clean before, if I get dirty, I can be cleaned again. They are dirty before, even though they clean their selves, they will still be dirty.
On their upcoming graduation, Gerald and other good students will graduate with rewards. Those bad students are now on hold, they are on trial for graduation, not likely to graduate. The military officers are very excellent, they examined the setup of Gerald, and found out that the bad students are bad. Gerald is a well-developed and trusted public safety officer, a police to protect the people.
Mary is doing fine in her studies. She's intelligent so she can handle her subjects very well. She's pretty confident she can finish the course. She's very excited to be on the news, she was inspired by the joke she threw to her group last summer that she'll be on the news someday.
During her college years, she knew how accountants become unfaithful of the financial statements. Mary was disappointed with that, she wanted to be put on news as a faithful accountant and be the Bureau of Internal Revenue Secretary if ever, so she can check all unfaithful financial statements made by unfaithful accountants from unfaithful businesses. So, Mary studied very well for 5 years until he gets her degree of B.S. Accountancy and top the board examination for Certified Public Accountants.
However, while in college, Mary's classmates are thinking that Mary is very happy on her life. She is smart, she is rich, she has a faithful boyfriend, and many things that a person wants. But behind the smile and achievements of Mary is a very deep problem, her family has a very big problem, the house is okay outside but inside is a very broken house. Mary's classmates don't even know about this, but the way they treat Mary is very different. Mary's classmates think Mary is a girl with no problems, that's why they think Mary no longer needs a friend. Though Mary is approachable, she didn't had a best friend in college. It's an additional burden for her, of course. Though it's good it didn't affect her studies.
Well, anyway, Mary will graduate soon with the highest honor in her batch, she's a candidate for Summa Cum Laude. Good thing, Mary does not only balance the amounts in financial statements, she can also balance her life with happiness and burdens. A faithful representation of an accountant with goodwill.
Mark is studying through a scholarship, without it he can't pursue college. Mark studies very well just to continue his studies, he's like eating books just to feed his brain. One time, Mark knew that what his professor teaches to them is wrong, so he corrected his professor in a humble way. But, the professor doesn't like what Mark did. There came a misunderstanding between the two. That incident happened again and the professor became mad at it. The professor gave hard lectures to his students so he can't be corrected, and so all the students had a hard approach on the subject. On the grades, Mark had a failing grade on the subject. He tried to complain to the school, but the professor already resigned. There's nothing he can do. Then, the scholarship was lost. Mark has to stop on his studies. But, he tried to look for sponsors, for scholarships, for grants but there's nothing. Until, he went to his school on high school, he went to his teacher in high school.
Mark: Hi Maam! How are you?
Teacher: I'm fine. What brought you here? Aren't you busy studying?
Mark: It's our semester break. Maam, honestly I went here to search for a sponsor, I lost my scholarship and I can't be busy studying if I can't continue studying.
Teacher: What happened? As I remember, you're the valedictorian. How did you lose your scholarship?
Mark: It's a long story Maam. Now I understand what you said, "Sometimes, teachers are better than professors." Just because they are called professors, they put their pride too high.
Teacher: Oh. I think I know why. Well, I will help you, I will sponsor your studies. I don't want a bright future turn into twilight. Just promise me, you'll do your best, don't fail on your subjects anymore. Like what I said before, do the same treatment, treat your professors like your teachers. Okay? Don't worry about your tuition, I'll handle it. Just tell me every time you need to pay.
Mark: Maam! Thank you very much! You are heaven sent! Didn't expect this but I am very grateful God gave me you Maam. What can I do for you Maam? (Crying)
Teacher: Nothing. I have much wealth, I don't have a child. Just finish your studies, that's enough, it's like I have my child finished in college.
Mark: Thank you very much Maam! I'll get an academic scholarship again to lessen your burden. (Hugs Maam)
Teacher: Be busy Mark! I want to see your bright future!
Mark: You'll see it Maam! I will bring the brightness to other people too.
Mark continued his studies. He became an academic scholar but 50% only. But it's enough to lessen the burden of her sponsor. He is now much careful and become aware of his actions with his professor. Since then, Mark became grade conscious for he doesn't wanna lose his scholarship and won't let himself fail a subject again. Problem arise with his classmates, they don't understand why Mark became grade conscious. Mark's classmates doesn't like Mark much now, unlike before. Mark noticed it, "It's not bad to be conscious of your grade, you just wanna make sure that your grades are worth your effort. Also, I need these grades for my scholarship and to finish my course and achieve my dream." He told his classmates, sorry guys, I am being conscious because these numbers dictates my future. If you are satisfied with your grades, well I'm not. I keep on improving because I wanna be successful. "These numbers shows how well I learned, and how well I learn is how well I can teach, and how well I teach is how well my students will learn someday." I am proud, but this isn't pride. I am humble all the time, you just put yourself lower than me because you always criticize and compare me with yourself. Focus on how you study, you can have the same grades I have too. Thank you guys for a wonderful learning experience, I hope all of us will graduate being proud of ourselves. Study well, be proud of yourself.
It's graduation of Mark, he's supposed to be a candidate for high honors but he can't be because he had a failing grade before. Well, Mark knows he does not need it, he will graduate and that's the most important.
The classmates of the Future Professional group also graduated on their respective courses. Their class was very successful, since they are all inspired by their teacher that time. The whole class graduated and became successful. For many years, they practiced their profession. They all get their deserving positions. Grace flew back to his motherland, she went home to meet the Future Professional group and plan a reunion. Only 4 of the group was present, Mark was not able to meet them. Anyway, the 4 of the group was successful to contact all their classmate and even batch mates for the reunion. The planning for reunion was settled to. Everything is set for the party, everyone just have to share for the cost of the party. The reunion will be held on their school when they were high school, respective guests are invited too which includes their beloved teacher and some teachers in the school.
Reunion day came. Everyone on the hall are dressed based on their respective career. It's like a hall of courses. Very pleasing to the eyes. Everyone are present in the event, except Mark. Grace was embarrassed, she can't even contact Mark. However, the event must proceed without Mark.
The event continued. Everyone reminiscing their high school years and talking about their achievements and how they overcome all trials in life. Everyone are very happy and glad with everyone's story. They even had a cheers for being a very successful batch. The teacher had delivered her very small speech.
Teacher:
I think all of you remembered my last speech when I was still your teacher. I said this to all sections of your batch. I said, I want all of you to study well, be serious. You can't visit me much on our school but we'll meet again for a reunion and everyone will be professional on your chosen career. You don't know how happy I am seeing you here, dressed according to your job. In my long years in teaching in this school, you are the most successful batch, ever. Please love your job, you've worked for it and you will work for it. My tears are falling now. Thank you everyone! Oh, here's our new principal in this school, he has a very inspiring message for you. Let's welcome, your batch valedictorian!
(Everyone in the hall is overwhelmed)
Mark: Hi Grace. I said I'm present :))
Grace: Wow Mark, I'm so proud of you!
Mark: Thanks! Wait, I'll just finish this speech, then I'll go there.
Grace: Okay :))
Mark:
Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I am very pleased all of you went to out school and joined this reunion prepared by a group of people. I am very glad you still can look at your back where you came from while you have the option to look forward and achieve more. This special event only shows that we all love our school and we will go back to see everyone.
For all you know, I also went here years ago and from time to time. I lost my scholarship before and I have to look for sponsor to finance my studies. I went back in this school, and you know, Maam helped me finish my studies. Maam was my sponsor, Maam was the main reason why I stand here in front you now. I am now a teacher to many students, a teacher to inspire students to finish their college just like what Maam did to all of us. I may be the principal here, I just stand here to inspire more people not just inside the class, but to all students in this school. I am still a teacher, I will only be a teacher.
I remember in college, there is this professor who puts his pride so high for he is a professor. He gave me a failing grade just because I corrected him in my most humble way. He's a professor, but he's still like teachers to commit some mistakes, yet he sees himself higher. My dream was turned off that time. Thank God there is Maam for me. Maam really is a blessing. Do you still remember what Maam said about professors? "Sometimes, teachers are better than professors." That's why I am here, teaching in high school, if being a professor will put my pride high, I'd rather be a teacher and be low. Everyone, wherever you are, whatever you have finished, make sure you're humble. All of us steps on the same ground, and look above for guidance.
That's why this school is very proud of you, after having your achievements that put you higher, you still went in this school where you started to soar high. We are very proud of you.
I knew some of your stories just before you went here, one doctor in this hall was very much in love and inspired to study more and long distance relationship is not a hindrance of love and studying. (Grace smiled gracefully)
One engineer in this hall, sacrificed his love life to focus on studying, she can't handle the two and chose studying. (Kim applaud very much)
There is this policeman who has faith on his career, people tried to tumble him down, but the truth had prevailed. (Gerald saluted)
This accountant had a broken house, but built it with her dream. I knew their house was overhauled and it's happy again. The 100% happiness is equal to 2% sadness + 98% source of happiness, it is balanced. I saw her on the news. (Mary had two thumbs up)
Everyone of us had trials in our studies, we may be rich or not-so-rich, intelligent or not-so-intelligent, problems may occur or not, everyone of us became successful in our careers. Cheers! Cheers to the doctors, to the policemen, to the engineers, to the lawyers, to the accountants, to the businessmen, to the professional artists, photographers, writers and to everyone here. Cheers!
To all the professionals here, I invite you to join me, I will make a program to finance students' studies and send him to school. I was once a scholar, I know how important this is. Who's in?
Everyone: Count us in!
Mark: Thank you guys! I hope this will be successful to make other's life be successful! I'll send you a letter once this would be okay and fully settled. Join me in my advocacy, send a child to school and be successful.
We are now professionals in our career, can we make the next batch of professionals? Of course we can. We will make many professionals, and those professionals will join our advocacy until we can make this program a legacy, this is not just a charity program. This is a build-a-professional program.
I will dedicate myself, I am a teacher. I can teach all students and help and guide them on the right profession for them. Someday, we will have our child, our child will grow together with those children we can help in the same generation. They will help one another and maybe, they would be classmates too.
Thank you everyone.
(Everyone gave a round of applause)
Mark: Now, I have to go on a personal deal. (Walks towards Grace)
Grace, will you marry me?
Grace: Hmm.. do you still need to ask?
Mark: Grace, Marry Me!
Grace: I will marry you! (Cries)
(Hugs each other)
Everyone cried and glad for what they have witnessed.
The program was successful, many successful professionals joined the advocacy, even those rich people who are friends of friends. The program became a legacy, it was passed on all generations. Many professionals joined to build the professionals of the next generation.
The program was named "Future Professionals" and the picture used was their studio picture after their graduation in high school.
These parties are very essential for students, in a way they can celebrate after they overcome all hardships in one school year. A celebration of passing all subjects through the unity and cooperation of one another, and the determination and perseverance of individuals. Such parties will put all students not for studying, but for enjoying a moment together, to use their energy to be happy, a recreational activity to rest while having fun.
Grace, Kim, Gerald, Mary and Mark are graduates of the recent school year, they were together for their whole high school years, they were classmates and best friends as well. Since first year of high school, they were already in a group called Future Professionals. Future Professional was built with their dreams, the dream to be a professional in their chosen career. Grace wants to be a doctor. Kim wants to be an engineer. Gerald wants to be a police. Mary is to be an accountant. Mark is to be a professional teacher.
During their summer party, they talked about going on college. Will they be together in college, where to study, how hard college education will be.
Kim: I already have my plan for college, I'll be entering the school where Engineering is at its best. You know guys, I want to be with you, but I have to achieve my dream. It was approved by my parents too. Sorry but I can't be with you, everyone there are all Engineering students.
Mark: Kim, don't be sorry, we understand. All of us wants to be professional with the best quality. Right guys?
Gerald: Yes, you're right. Actually, last few days, I thought of going to the military academy for my career, of course you can't go there too, guys. (laughs)
Mary: Okay guys, well just now, I think it's better if I enter the school where Certified Public Accountant topnotch are. The school producing the top notching accountants! Someday, you'll see me on the news. (laughs)
Grace: Good idea guys, let's get our degree on the best schools. I'm just glad, I think you won't get mad at me now. After this summer party, I'll fly to America for college, i'll be leaving you guys. I don't know if i'm glad now, or sad.
Mark: Hey, you should be glad! That's great! I would be very proud of you, proud to all of us!
Grace: Thanks Mark! How bout you, where will you be for college?
Mark: If only I could fly with you. :)
Whole group: That's what love is.
Mark: I really want to. But, my full scholarship is just applicable here in our country. I can't fly for now, but when I'm successful, I will fly to all countries with my one and only Grace.
Group: Awwww.. That's sweet.
Grace: Awww.. Mark, I love you, we'll go successful first and let's get married someday. Wait for me, promise me you'll wait for me. (hugs Mark)
Mark: I promise.
Group: Awww.. we'll watch you Mark. We will be the eyes of Grace wile she's abroad.
Classmates: Hey go to our room, evening is set, let's eat!
Group: Okay! Come on guys.
SO the whole class went to the room and ate their dinner. After that, they played some games and slept. Next day morning, they woke up early and be ready to get home. Suddenly, the teacher cried and the students went to their teacher.
Teacher: Guys, I am your last teacher for high school. Remember, high school is the best experience to be happy while studying. In college, I want all of you to study well, be serious, I know you can't visit me much on our school, but I know someday we'll meet again for a reunion and all of you will be professional on your chosen career, like me. Guys, please promise me, do your best on your studies. You're now done calling your teachers, in college, you'll call them professors. But, we can't say that they are better just because they teach in college.
Remember: "Sometimes, teachers are better than professors." But, do the same treatment, whoever your professor is, no matter how hard that subject is, you should pass and learn on your career. Give me a hug!
Class: Group Power Hug! Thank You Maam! You're the best and you'll always be remembered! (Tears fall)
The party was done, everyone went home. The group of Future Professional went first to the photo shop to have a studio photo. Remembrance and souvenir for the high school years. Then, the group went home.
Grace flew to America. Gerald packed up and entered the military academy. Kim went to her school and be enrolled. Mary was admitted on her school for college. Mark processed his scholarship for college.
Mark: Thank God. I have this scholarship for college. But, this is just for the first semester. What if I fail in one subject? What if I can't pay the tuition? What if I can't study anymore? It will be the end of my career. Oh forget the what-ifs, I can do this.
During their college years..
Grace can speak very fluent in English, she learn all by herself. She can stand on her own feet now, unlike then, she's always with her boyfriend who is Mark, the academic scholar. Grace studies very well, inspired to be successful and be married with Mark. Although, sometimes she misses Mark, but it gives her a better feeling knowing Mark is waiting for her. There are some guys who tries to fetch Grace, they are all busted.
Grace really does love Mark, long distance relationship is not a hindrance for love. The college years of Grace went fine, very fine. She was one of the most excellent on her school. Soon, she'll graduate with honors. A dedicated and well-trained doctor.
Kim is getting average grades, she is likely to fail but continue striving just to pass all subjects. She's having a hard time with her subjects though she loves mathematics. "It's not just about loving mathematics, it's about loving the course." She loves her dream to be an engineer that's why she studies very hard. She sacrificed her love life because she can't handle the two. She had to choose between dream and love. She left her boyfriend, and focused on studying.
"I know love can wait. I have a lifetime for my love life, but now is not the time. I should focus on my studies first because now is the time. Someday love will cross my path in God's perfect time." Kim is in an engineering school, full of guy students, guys would really court Kim but she declines. Just 5 years to study in college, the rest can be for my love life and happiness, of course that includes her success on being an engineer.
Gerald was almost kicked out of the military academy. Everyone there are doing their best to be a police. But, some students there are doing bad things, against the rules of the academy, immediate actions, and some are doing their tricks to graduate soon. Gerald is not one those students. Gerald is doing all the appropriate actions on the academy, he follows the rules and regulations. Gerald was not supposed to be kicked out, those bad students supposed to. But, on the last year before graduation, those bad students heard a rumor that Gerald will be rewarded an award for being outstanding. Those bad students set up a situation, they showed to all military officers there that Gerald was a bad person at all. The bad students cleaned themselves, and made Gerald's reputations so dirty.
The military officers was blinded by the situation, Gerald was almost kicked out but he was given one chance. Gerald used that chance to be cleaned again. "I am clean before, if I get dirty, I can be cleaned again. They are dirty before, even though they clean their selves, they will still be dirty.

The military officers are very excellent, they examined the setup of Gerald, and found out that the bad students are bad. Gerald is a well-developed and trusted public safety officer, a police to protect the people.
Mary is doing fine in her studies. She's intelligent so she can handle her subjects very well. She's pretty confident she can finish the course. She's very excited to be on the news, she was inspired by the joke she threw to her group last summer that she'll be on the news someday.

Well, anyway, Mary will graduate soon with the highest honor in her batch, she's a candidate for Summa Cum Laude. Good thing, Mary does not only balance the amounts in financial statements, she can also balance her life with happiness and burdens. A faithful representation of an accountant with goodwill.
Mark is studying through a scholarship, without it he can't pursue college. Mark studies very well just to continue his studies, he's like eating books just to feed his brain. One time, Mark knew that what his professor teaches to them is wrong, so he corrected his professor in a humble way. But, the professor doesn't like what Mark did.

He tried to complain to the school, but the professor already resigned. There's nothing he can do. Then, the scholarship was lost. Mark has to stop on his studies. But, he tried to look for sponsors, for scholarships, for grants but there's nothing. Until, he went to his school on high school, he went to his teacher in high school.
Mark: Hi Maam! How are you?
Teacher: I'm fine. What brought you here? Aren't you busy studying?
Mark: It's our semester break. Maam, honestly I went here to search for a sponsor, I lost my scholarship and I can't be busy studying if I can't continue studying.
Teacher: What happened? As I remember, you're the valedictorian. How did you lose your scholarship?
Mark: It's a long story Maam. Now I understand what you said, "Sometimes, teachers are better than professors." Just because they are called professors, they put their pride too high.
Teacher: Oh. I think I know why. Well, I will help you, I will sponsor your studies. I don't want a bright future turn into twilight. Just promise me, you'll do your best, don't fail on your subjects anymore. Like what I said before, do the same treatment, treat your professors like your teachers. Okay? Don't worry about your tuition, I'll handle it. Just tell me every time you need to pay.
Mark: Maam! Thank you very much! You are heaven sent! Didn't expect this but I am very grateful God gave me you Maam. What can I do for you Maam? (Crying)
Teacher: Nothing. I have much wealth, I don't have a child. Just finish your studies, that's enough, it's like I have my child finished in college.
Mark: Thank you very much Maam! I'll get an academic scholarship again to lessen your burden. (Hugs Maam)
Teacher: Be busy Mark! I want to see your bright future!
Mark: You'll see it Maam! I will bring the brightness to other people too.
Mark continued his studies. He became an academic scholar but 50% only. But it's enough to lessen the burden of her sponsor. He is now much careful and become aware of his actions with his professor. Since then, Mark became grade conscious for he doesn't wanna lose his scholarship and won't let himself fail a subject again. Problem arise with his classmates, they don't understand why Mark became grade conscious. Mark's classmates doesn't like Mark much now, unlike before. Mark noticed it, "It's not bad to be conscious of your grade, you just wanna make sure that your grades are worth your effort. Also, I need these grades for my scholarship and to finish my course and achieve my dream." He told his classmates, sorry guys, I am being conscious because these numbers dictates my future. If you are satisfied with your grades, well I'm not. I keep on improving because I wanna be successful. "These numbers shows how well I learned, and how well I learn is how well I can teach, and how well I teach is how well my students will learn someday." I am proud, but this isn't pride. I am humble all the time, you just put yourself lower than me because you always criticize and compare me with yourself. Focus on how you study, you can have the same grades I have too. Thank you guys for a wonderful learning experience, I hope all of us will graduate being proud of ourselves. Study well, be proud of yourself.
It's graduation of Mark, he's supposed to be a candidate for high honors but he can't be because he had a failing grade before. Well, Mark knows he does not need it, he will graduate and that's the most important.
The classmates of the Future Professional group also graduated on their respective courses. Their class was very successful, since they are all inspired by their teacher that time. The whole class graduated and became successful. For many years, they practiced their profession. They all get their deserving positions. Grace flew back to his motherland, she went home to meet the Future Professional group and plan a reunion. Only 4 of the group was present, Mark was not able to meet them. Anyway, the 4 of the group was successful to contact all their classmate and even batch mates for the reunion. The planning for reunion was settled to. Everything is set for the party, everyone just have to share for the cost of the party. The reunion will be held on their school when they were high school, respective guests are invited too which includes their beloved teacher and some teachers in the school.
Reunion day came. Everyone on the hall are dressed based on their respective career. It's like a hall of courses. Very pleasing to the eyes. Everyone are present in the event, except Mark. Grace was embarrassed, she can't even contact Mark. However, the event must proceed without Mark.
The event continued. Everyone reminiscing their high school years and talking about their achievements and how they overcome all trials in life. Everyone are very happy and glad with everyone's story. They even had a cheers for being a very successful batch. The teacher had delivered her very small speech.
Teacher:
I think all of you remembered my last speech when I was still your teacher. I said this to all sections of your batch. I said, I want all of you to study well, be serious. You can't visit me much on our school but we'll meet again for a reunion and everyone will be professional on your chosen career. You don't know how happy I am seeing you here, dressed according to your job. In my long years in teaching in this school, you are the most successful batch, ever. Please love your job, you've worked for it and you will work for it. My tears are falling now. Thank you everyone! Oh, here's our new principal in this school, he has a very inspiring message for you. Let's welcome, your batch valedictorian!
(Everyone in the hall is overwhelmed)
Mark: Hi Grace. I said I'm present :))
Grace: Wow Mark, I'm so proud of you!
Mark: Thanks! Wait, I'll just finish this speech, then I'll go there.
Grace: Okay :))
Mark:
Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I am very pleased all of you went to out school and joined this reunion prepared by a group of people. I am very glad you still can look at your back where you came from while you have the option to look forward and achieve more. This special event only shows that we all love our school and we will go back to see everyone.
For all you know, I also went here years ago and from time to time. I lost my scholarship before and I have to look for sponsor to finance my studies. I went back in this school, and you know, Maam helped me finish my studies. Maam was my sponsor, Maam was the main reason why I stand here in front you now. I am now a teacher to many students, a teacher to inspire students to finish their college just like what Maam did to all of us. I may be the principal here, I just stand here to inspire more people not just inside the class, but to all students in this school. I am still a teacher, I will only be a teacher.
I remember in college, there is this professor who puts his pride so high for he is a professor. He gave me a failing grade just because I corrected him in my most humble way. He's a professor, but he's still like teachers to commit some mistakes, yet he sees himself higher. My dream was turned off that time. Thank God there is Maam for me. Maam really is a blessing. Do you still remember what Maam said about professors? "Sometimes, teachers are better than professors." That's why I am here, teaching in high school, if being a professor will put my pride high, I'd rather be a teacher and be low. Everyone, wherever you are, whatever you have finished, make sure you're humble. All of us steps on the same ground, and look above for guidance.
That's why this school is very proud of you, after having your achievements that put you higher, you still went in this school where you started to soar high. We are very proud of you.
I knew some of your stories just before you went here, one doctor in this hall was very much in love and inspired to study more and long distance relationship is not a hindrance of love and studying. (Grace smiled gracefully)
One engineer in this hall, sacrificed his love life to focus on studying, she can't handle the two and chose studying. (Kim applaud very much)
There is this policeman who has faith on his career, people tried to tumble him down, but the truth had prevailed. (Gerald saluted)
This accountant had a broken house, but built it with her dream. I knew their house was overhauled and it's happy again. The 100% happiness is equal to 2% sadness + 98% source of happiness, it is balanced. I saw her on the news. (Mary had two thumbs up)
Everyone of us had trials in our studies, we may be rich or not-so-rich, intelligent or not-so-intelligent, problems may occur or not, everyone of us became successful in our careers. Cheers! Cheers to the doctors, to the policemen, to the engineers, to the lawyers, to the accountants, to the businessmen, to the professional artists, photographers, writers and to everyone here. Cheers!
To all the professionals here, I invite you to join me, I will make a program to finance students' studies and send him to school. I was once a scholar, I know how important this is. Who's in?
Everyone: Count us in!
Mark: Thank you guys! I hope this will be successful to make other's life be successful! I'll send you a letter once this would be okay and fully settled. Join me in my advocacy, send a child to school and be successful.
We are now professionals in our career, can we make the next batch of professionals? Of course we can. We will make many professionals, and those professionals will join our advocacy until we can make this program a legacy, this is not just a charity program. This is a build-a-professional program.
I will dedicate myself, I am a teacher. I can teach all students and help and guide them on the right profession for them. Someday, we will have our child, our child will grow together with those children we can help in the same generation. They will help one another and maybe, they would be classmates too.
Thank you everyone.
(Everyone gave a round of applause)
Mark: Now, I have to go on a personal deal. (Walks towards Grace)
Grace, will you marry me?
Grace: Hmm.. do you still need to ask?
Mark: Grace, Marry Me!
Grace: I will marry you! (Cries)
(Hugs each other)
Everyone cried and glad for what they have witnessed.
The program was successful, many successful professionals joined the advocacy, even those rich people who are friends of friends. The program became a legacy, it was passed on all generations. Many professionals joined to build the professionals of the next generation.
The program was named "Future Professionals" and the picture used was their studio picture after their graduation in high school.

Enough
God won't always give us what we ask for, but he will give you what's suppose and what's enough.
I believe.
Just this few days, I am a little bit worried of my grade in my major subject but I believe I can achieve this certain grade which is quite high. Everyday I have been thinking of it, and praying for it. For I believe I have done to the extent I can reach that certain grade. Until, yesterday, I received my grades in all subject.
My worry ended with gladness and contentment. My grade in my major subject was one step closer to the certain grade I wanted. I wanted 1.75 and I got 2.0, very close right? I am not disappointed that I haven't reached that certain grade, I really appreciated it instead.
This is an achievement for me, really. Imagine, from one of the lowest, I am now one of the highest. 2.0 is already a very good grade. And in that very hard subject, I climbed from 2.5 up to 2.0. This is very unexpected, and this is the result of my performance.
Getting the grade of 1.75 is not just for personal intention, it's because I wanted my Dad to be happy, to show him that I've done my best to get a higher grade. Though, 2.0 is appreciated. Once, he told me, "Basta matataas lang grades niyo, masaya na ako, sulit na ang pagod ko sa trabaho". (When you grades are high, I'll be happy, my effort for working is worth it) It's one of my motivation for wanting higher grades.
But, God knows what I have done, He knows what I deserve. He knows I asked for the certain grade of 1.75, yet I got 2.0 because that's what is suppose to be my grade. 2.0 is enough. I have done enough and I got what's enough. It's fair.
I believe I can do more next time, I can do much for my grades, and he will give me enough of what I invested for the subject.
Thanks be to God :)

Life is Fair
God's blessing may come as a surprise; how much we
receive depends on how much we believe.
All of us are wishing for things to happen, for things we can have. We have our unlimited wants in life, but what we can have is just limited. We have a lot of dreams, but we can only achieve some. There are things we have, yet we still want other things.
One reason, we have limited resources. We can only buy things we want to the extent that you have the money. The more we have the money, the higher year we can achieve in school. The longest time you can use the ball pen is as long as there's still ink, unless it's lost. We have limited resources that stops us to get everything we want.
Another reason, not everything we want can be purchased, there are things that we can have without money. But, we can't have them because it's priceless. Just like having a partner, you just can't buy your partner in life. You have to make effort to bring the girl to the altar and grow together. Also, we have to study very much to pass our exams and have higher grades. Those don't require money, yet the way we can have them is by doing something.
At the time people cannot have what they want, they will start to say "LIFE IS UNFAIR".
Life is unfair because some people have, but they haven't.
Life is unfair because they can't have the things they
want.
Life is unfair, it is fair to others, but it's not to me.
Many more reasons saying life is unfair, they say life is
unfair.
Actually, "LIFE IS FAIR"
Life gives you on what you do for your life. And getting things is beyond paying money and doing effort for what you want to have. Not because you spent money, not because you did something, does not mean you can have everything you want. But, don't think that life is unfair for you.
You also need to do things on your life that do not require something in return. But, unexpectedly, life will shower you blessings in return. There are things that we don't want before, but life will give you more than what you wanted.
Things will also be in your favor if you believe. Believe you can have what you want. Believe. Believe. Believe.
Sometimes, people spend for our tuition but they don't believe they can finish the course.
Sometimes, man courts a girl without believing he can
have the girl's "Yes".
Sometimes, man spends for the business, puts his time
into the business, but does not believe much that the business will grow.
They don't believe, they fail. Then, they will say Life is Unfair.
It is unfair if you say "Life is unfair", because actually "Life is Fair".
If life is unfair to everyone, doesn't that makes life fair?
You should put into your mind, that everyone cannot have everything they want. Some have things that you do not have, but you also have things that others do not have. There are things you don't have and other's don't have too. And, there are things that you have, and others have it too.
Life is Fair.
Blessings will come to you by surprise, by disguise, and by slice. Life will give you what you deserve, you can see them, you can feel them, and you can have them piece by piece.
Always Think: You Are Blessed. Believe That You Are Blessed. :)

Grades
Usapang grades naman tayo..
Ang mga estudyante, madalas sinasabi:
"Hindi GRADES ang magdidikta ng Kinabukasan ko!"
Nag-isip ba sila bago sabihin yon? Oh reaction lang nila kapag mababa grades nila?
Kung naniniwala kang walang magagawa ang grades sa kinabukasan mo, eh bakit ka pa nag-aral? Araw-araw ka pumapasok sa eskwela, tapos iisipin mo walang epekto ang grades mo? Tambayan mo siguro ang eskwela. Pero bakit ginagawa at tinatapos mo mga requirements, diba para umangat ang grades?
Kahit ano man ang sabihin natin, sa pagpasok sa eskwela ay kasama na ang pagkuha ng GRADES. Bago mo makuha ang diploma, kailangan maipasa mo muna ang grades requirements. Grades pa rin. Katunayan, ang buong taon o buong semester mo sa pag-aaral, nagrereflect sa grades mo.
Kung hindi grades ang magdidikta sa Kinabukasan ng tao, bakit napakaraming tao ang gustong mag-aral? Madaming gustong makapag-aral para magkaroon ng Diploma at magkaroon ng magandang trabaho at maluwag na pamumuhay.
Isang malaking issue sa bawat bansa kapag maraming mamamayan o mga bata ang hindi makapag-aral. Bibigyang pansin pa ba yan kung hindi grades ang magdidikta ng kinabukasan, hindi. Kaya sa bawat batang pumapasok, pag-iigihan nilang mag-aral para sa Grades.
Bakit ang isang Scholar? Lalo na mga scholar na hindi makapag-aral kung walang scholarship. Ang mga yan, nag-aaral ng mabuti at maigi para tumaas ang grades, maipagpatuloy ang pag-aaral, makatapos, magkaroon ng diploma, makapagtrabaho sa kinuhang propesyon. Grades pa rin.
Grades are just numbers as we say, but these numbers are critical, this can make a difference in your future.
Kaya mga kapwa ko estudyante, pag-igihan ang pag-aaral, Grades can define our future.
Sabihin na nating mayroong mayayaman at matagumpay na hindi man nakatapos ng pag-aaral, eh sila may talino at talento kaya sila naging matagumpay.
Oo. Meron nga tayong talino, pero tiyak mo ba na sa talino na yan, magiging matagumpay ka na? Huwag pakasisiguro. Kaya mabuti pa ay mag-aral ng maayos sa paaralan para sa Grades.
Ito ah, para sakin lang:
Nag-aaral tayo para magbigay kasiguraduhan sa gugustuhin nating propesyon, kung makatapos man tayo. Kung hindi naman, doon, doon mo na magagamit ang talento at talino mo para maging matagumpay pa rin.
BUT!
One thing is certain about GRADES.
Grades can never define who we are as a person. :)

Torpe
Torpe - Ano nga ba ang torpe? Sino ba ang torpe? Bakit may torpe?
Ang isang tao ay tinatawag na torpe kapag mayroon siyang pag-ibig na nararamdaman ngunit hindi naman niya masabi sa taong mahal niya. Lingid sa kaalaman ng lahat, parehong nakakaramdam ng pagkatorpe ang lalake at maging mga babae. Natural kasi ang magtapat sa mga lalaki kaya nahahalata ang pagiging torpe, sa mga babae ay hindi natural ang pagtatapat ng nararamdaman kaya hindi halata ang pagiging torpe.
Nagiging torpe ang mga tao, lalo na mga lalaki, dahil sa madaming dahilan. May iba't ibang sitwasyon kaya nagiging torpe ang mga lalaki. Hindi kaya madali ang magtapat, kailangan ng timing at lakas ng loob. Bakit may torpe? Dahil hindi allowed ang pag-ibig sa lahat ng pagkakataon.
"Kung sino pa ang nahihiyang maghayag ng nararamdaman, siya pa ang may tunay na nararamdaman."
Yung mga lalaking malakas nga ang loob sa pagsabi ng nararamdaman sa babae, eh hindi naman talaga in love. Yung feeling na gusto lang magka-girlfriend. Hindi nga torpe, hindi naman din marunong magmahal. Mga lalaking madaming kayang sabihin sa babae, hindi naman mula sa puso. Matinik nga sa babae, malambot naman ang bones.
Yung mga torpe, hindi man umamin sa minamahal nila, totoo naman ang pagiging concern sa babae. Minsan sila pa ang kasama ng babae kapag sinaktan ng mga boyfriend nila.
"Nakatago man ang salita, ipinapakita naman. Hindi na mapigilan eh, kusa na ang katawan para ipakita ang nararamadaman. But, action speaks louder, the words still make it clearer."
Meron din naman mga lalaki na natotorpe, hindi na makapagsalita, hindi pa makalapit. Naku, wala ng chance yan. Kung pag-ibig nga yan, inaasahan nang maibabaon yan.
Mayroong sitwasyon na torpe ang lalaki, hindi dahil sa takot magsalita, pero dahil naipit sa sitwasyon.
Torpe ang lalaki, kapag alam niyang ang karibal ay mas lamang sa kanya sa porma.
Torpe ang lalaki, kapag may crush na ibang lalaki ang babae.
Torpe ang lalaki, kapag may boyfriend na ang lalaki. Syempre nga naman ayaw na gumitna.
Torpe ang lalaki, dahil alam niyang hindi pa yon ang tamang oras.
Torpe ang lalaki, dahil hindi siya sigurado kung mag boyfriend o wala ang babae.
Torpe ang lalaki, dahil ayaw niyang sirain ang pag-aaral ng babae.
Torpe ang lalaki, baka takot nang masaktan muli.
Madami pang rason ang pagiging torpe ng lalaki.
Meron pang iba na uunahin muna ang pag-aaral para kapag nagtapat siya sa babae eh successful na siya.
Yung iba, umaasa sa destiny. Kung sila talaga, masasabi din niya.
Buti pa nga mga torpe, nasasaktan eh. Ang ibang lalaki kapag nawalan ng minamahal, wala man pakialam.
Mga girls, huwag niyo din maliitin ang mga lalaking torpe, hindi madali ang maging torpe. Mahirap, nasasaktan din ang mga torpe kahit hindi pa man nagiging kayo. Selos lagi ang kasama ng mga torpe. Mahirap din magpretend na hindi kayo mahal, minsan di nila alam kung dapat kayong lapitan o layuan. Ang mga torpe ay may puso, kaya tunay kung magmahal.
"Kapag naubos ang mga torpe, malamang senyales yan na madami ng manloloko." Kaya mas okay pa rin ang mga torpe kaysa sa mga manloloko.
Pero, payo lang mga torpe. Walang mangyayari kung di niyo sasabihin. Tapatin mo siya, kung gusto niya, ligawan mo. Kung ayaw, atlis nasabi mo. Mas mapapanatag ka pa nun. Diba?
Lahat ng tao, pwedeng magmahal, basta tunay ang nararamdaman.

The Last or The First? :)
Pasado ang 4772 CPAs sa October2012 CPA Board Exam.
Nakakainggit naman, sa ngayon ako ay nag-aaral ng Accountancy to earn my degree and someday I'll be taking the board exam. Gusto ko na magtest! Pero hindi pa ko handa, kaya kailangan ko pa mag-aral ng mabuti para dadating ang araw na papasa din ako at maging Certified Public Accoutant!
Bigla kong naisip: Gusto kong maging kauna-unahang Zablan na maging CPA. Nagsearch ako sa google, meron na palang CPA na Zablan, kahit pa hindi ko sila kilala. Di na ko magiging unang Zablan na maging CPA.
Naisip ko din: Kapag pumasa ako sa board exam, alphabetical yun kapag nakapost. Nandun na naman ako sa bandang kahulihulihan ng listahan. Eh sa klase lagi na nga akong bandang huli eh. Kasi nga Zablan ang surname ko. Madalas nasa huli.
At naisip ko ulit: May bago akong plano. Gusto kong maging Pinakaunang Zablan na maging Topnotcher sa CPA Board Exam. Para hindi ako basta-basta nasa dulo ng listahan, ilalagay ang pangalan ko sa taas ng pangalan nilang lahat, dahil nga topnotcher ako.
Ang sarap sa feeling, iniisip ko pa lang. Pano kaya kung maging totoo na, sana nga. :) Hindi naman masama ang mangarap eh, nag-umpisa ako sa pangarap ko kaya papangarapin ko na din kung ano ang gusto ko sa pangarap ko.
Ako na nga ba ang Pinakaunang ZABLAN na magiging Topnotcher sa CPA Board Exam?
Abangan..

Sir FINAC: Sure na ba kayo next sem?
On our last day for the subject Financial Accounting 1 (FINAC1), last discussion day for our exam, my professor left a hanging question: Sure na ba kayo next sem? (Are you sure to continue the next sem?). We have talked about him being our professor for next semester, that's why he left us with that question :)
Well, this first semester in my second year in college has been very difficult for me.. And I say this has been the most challenging I've ever had in my school years. But, the challenge became an advantage for me. Honestly, I am the type of person who's competitive, in a way that I don't want to be the least in the class. I don't want to have a low grade when others have high. So, challenge accepted.
The preliminary part of this semester was tough, I am studying ENOUGH for my major subject (FINAC1) but still I fail or get zero in quizzes and seat works. I study hard in my major subject and sacrifice a little of my minor subjects. I face the book every night with ENOUGH time but I still can't get a good score. That's how critical the situation for me. And, knowing I have the grade of 2.5 in my major subject, this made me realized that I haven't done enough yet. 2.5? When in my previous accounting subjects I have 1.25 and 1.75 plus I am running to be part of the Dean's List. This isn't good, so I have to make a change, a lot of changes in my habit.
In the start of the Midterm, I promised myself to do more of studying so I can get high grade and to recover my grade from the critical situation. I am now studying MORE THAN ENOUGH just to recover my grade. Things went fine, I get perfect quizzes and seat works, though some have mistakes. I face the book until I understand everything in the chapter, I focus on studying and I got the most challenging moment in life. I was just in the kitchen, sitting in the chair, the book on the table, on studying all night long. Grabe! I have done better now. Then, suddenly, a 100% Scholarship was granted to me. And so I am more motivated to study and do things to recover my grade. Everything went fine, got perfect scores, better performance and I am able to share my knowledge with people around me.
On the finals, I gave everything I've got! The best I can, MORE THAN OF MORE THAN ENOUGH. Did everything for my major subject. Assuring every scores to be high. So things went according to my plan, and with the guidance of the Lord, it's according to His will.
This semester is very difficult and yet very challenging. I went down and climb again. I loved it. I learned too many and I know I still have a lot to learn. I have developed my habit of studying and I will study the essential things in my chosen career.
Some have had high grades but just copy in exams and quizzes. Some even leak answers to get high score. Some just depend on answers of the others and they want to have a very high score. This makes me proud that I didn't depend on copying during exams, I just depend on the book and on my own brain. I know someday, I can do better than those who just copy. I'm glad that my seatmate is studious too, makes me wanna study more.
So, what's my answer to my professor's question? Am I sure to continue in the next semester?
Of course I am! I already did my best, I know now how I can do better and at my best for the succeeding semesters. I will finish what I have started and undergo all trials that can make me do better.
Sir, thanks for that challenging question, I am challenged to do better next semester. :)

I don't want to have a low grade when others have high. So, challenge accepted.
The preliminary part of this semester was tough, I am studying ENOUGH for my major subject (FINAC1) but still I fail or get zero in quizzes and seat works. I study hard in my major subject and sacrifice a little of my minor subjects. I face the book every night with ENOUGH time but I still can't get a good score. That's how critical the situation for me. And, knowing I have the grade of 2.5 in my major subject, this made me realized that I haven't done enough yet. 2.5? When in my previous accounting subjects I have 1.25 and 1.75 plus I am running to be part of the Dean's List. This isn't good, so I have to make a change, a lot of changes in my habit.
In the start of the Midterm, I promised myself to do more of studying so I can get high grade and to recover my grade from the critical situation. I am now studying MORE THAN ENOUGH just to recover my grade. Things went fine, I get perfect quizzes and seat works, though some have mistakes. I face the book until I understand everything in the chapter, I focus on studying and I got the most challenging moment in life. I was just in the kitchen, sitting in the chair, the book on the table, on studying all night long. Grabe! I have done better now. Then, suddenly, a 100% Scholarship was granted to me. And so I am more motivated to study and do things to recover my grade. Everything went fine, got perfect scores, better performance and I am able to share my knowledge with people around me.
On the finals, I gave everything I've got! The best I can, MORE THAN OF MORE THAN ENOUGH. Did everything for my major subject. Assuring every scores to be high. So things went according to my plan, and with the guidance of the Lord, it's according to His will.
This semester is very difficult and yet very challenging. I went down and climb again. I loved it. I learned too many and I know I still have a lot to learn. I have developed my habit of studying and I will study the essential things in my chosen career.
Some have had high grades but just copy in exams and quizzes. Some even leak answers to get high score. Some just depend on answers of the others and they want to have a very high score. This makes me proud that I didn't depend on copying during exams, I just depend on the book and on my own brain. I know someday, I can do better than those who just copy. I'm glad that my seatmate is studious too, makes me wanna study more.
So, what's my answer to my professor's question? Am I sure to continue in the next semester?
Of course I am! I already did my best, I know now how I can do better and at my best for the succeeding semesters. I will finish what I have started and undergo all trials that can make me do better.
Sir, thanks for that challenging question, I am challenged to do better next semester. :)
