Friendship Poem

We have known each other’s faces ever since we were little kids

But so ironic to know that I started to love you just last two thousand and six

Was it I who first smiled?

Or was it you who began the friendship's first mile?

I can’t remember well how everything between us started

But spending many good, good days with you, how can I just forget?

I treasured those moments with you,

Keeping them in my heart always 5 years new.

Though we’re so different in many things

But then so alike in much more ways

You were the funny and friendly girl,

I was the shy and silent type

But whenever were together,

Time and space have lost their place,

‘Cause we’re the craziest and I like it that way best.

We sing - you sing way better (you even dance horribly)

We play the piano, you play the flute

We play the guitar, I teach you how

(And now you’re even much better)

We plant pechay, we sell them ‘till heaven knows where and when

We ride the bike, and strolled more until rain pours

We joke, you laugh at any joke

We laugh together, you laugh much more

We’re silent - I hate it when you’re silent

I cry - you’re there for me

We drink heavily, Oh how I miss salabat dearly.

I have loved, you kept it a secret

And when love needs to end, you spilled the restricted

But I just want you to know: I began to appreciate you more for that,

You’re just a true friend.

We studied the Bible and read it together

We pray and sing much more as sisters.

Through the sunny and gloomy days of life,

I know the Heavenly Father has always been your Guide.

And now that you’re nineteen, and don’t forget to soon be twenty,

I pray to Him that He continue blessing you in every aspect, abundantly.

May He continue to use you as an instrument that plays wonderfully

Of songs and praises of His love and grace to everybody.

Study well and pray more

Dream big things, Do your best

Love more, Worry less

And depend to God your all.

I hope we see each other soon.

Happy, happy Birthday Grace!

I miss you and I love you! J

Draft

3^rd year BSA

Wala sa hinagap ko nung elementary at high school na puro numbers ang makakaharap ko pagdating ng college. Pangarap ko kasi talaga noon pa na maging medical doctor, specifically, paediatrician. Pero ewan ko ba, dito ako nalagay sa talagang kabaliktaran ng kung anong pinag-aaralan ng mga magdodoctor.

Hindi ko rin alam kung bakit yung isa pa sa pinaka-mahirap na course yung kinuha ko. Wala masyadong memorization pero puro analysis. Mula sa pagrecord ng transaction hanggang sa matapos ang isang buong accounting period, hanggang infinity (dahil sa principle ng going concern) pwera nalang kung mabankrupt at maliquidate ang business. Pero hanggang doon, puro analyzation. Basta, kung BSA student kayo, siguradong maiintindihan niyo ko ng bongga.

Gusto ko lang naman i-share yung challenge na nararanasan ko. Sa totoo lang kasi, di ako ganoon katalino. Siguro medyo fast learner pero kung gano kabilis makagets, ganun  din naman kabilis makalimot. Slow pa nga kadalasan eh. Di rin ako ganon kasipag mag-aral. Ngayong college ko nga lang na-experience yung halos 3-5 hours tuloy-tuloy na aral, walang break. Eh nung high school nga, nakaka 1 hour lang ako. Di pa nga reach. Pero wala eh. People change. People need to change for some reasons.

Alam mo yung experience na nageexcel ka nung high school kahit happy-go-lucky ka lang sa pag-aaral, pero ngayon, wala na. As in WALA. Mahirap din pala masanay ng ganun. Masakit sa puso. Lol. Pero kailangan i-accept na talagang may mas best pa talaga sa’yo at kailangan ng effort para mag-excel.

Nakakatuwa lang din minsan. Yung tipong bagsakan na rin yung grade(actually di naman sya literal na bagsak, di lang abot sa cut-off grade) edi medyo sisipagan na yung pag-aaral, nagiging positive, tapos pray. Leave everything to God’s hand.  Masarap lang sa feeling yung ginawa mo na yung part mo, you did your best, so nothing to worry anymore because God will now do His part, just trust. After nun, namalayan ko nalang, pasado ako. Although hindi ganung kataas yung grade, pero so much thankful.

Masaya rin. Kapag may gantong klase ng thrill yung buhay. Daming lessons in life.

Nagbbrowse ako sa mga documents ko nung makita ko yung mga drafts ko para ipost sa blog. Mga 8 MS Word documents na sinimulan kong isulat this year at wala ni isang natapos. Di pa kasama yung mga drafts dito sa blog at 3 short story drafts sa notebook ko. Di ko alam kung anong nangyari. Basta naging ganto nalang talaga ako bigla. 

Pumili lang ako ng isang draft na parang medyo tapos. At iyan yun. Wala na kasing kwenta talaga yung iba, kahit english pa sila. Nakakatawa lang na ang non-sense pala ng mga pinag-iisip ko. Pero at least gumagana, di'ba?

At ayun nga, naka-abot naman din ako ng 3rd year BS Accountancy. Hopefully maka-abot hanggang Board Exam at makapasa, by God's grace.

Kbye. Mag-aaral na po ako.
