3rd year
Whats up with blogspot? @_@
i have been gone for a seriously long time, i know.. but damn! things have changed.. apparently, blogger's out of BETA and they added all these new... stuff.. that I'm not sure if i like or don't like. *shrugs* ah, well... no skin off my nose.
The reason why i didn't log on for soooooooooooooooooooooo long was simple: I didn't feel like blogging for a while. I put myself on a self imposed hiatus from blogging. Why? Cause i found it tedious. Probably because most of the time, i had nothing of substance to write about, in the first place.
anyway, I'm back! and i have a lot of things to tell this good ol' blog o mine.
First up.. third year's done. My junior year is behind me. I only have one year left to go in this fine institution, THE ROYAL, PONTIFICAL, CATHOLIC, UNIVERSITY OF SANTO TOMAS.. one year, and I'm done (that is, unless i get in some serious trouble or find myself slacking off waay too much, which probably might happen, knowing me =P)... which is a really scary thought.. wait.. i don't think scary is the right word, because its not that I'm scared.. hmm.. exhilarating. i think that better fits.
Allow me a metaphor.. (na solid sa kabaduyan)
I am at the edge of the cliff, with the bungee chord tied securely around my ankles... im looking down at the drop, mustering the nerve to take the flying leap. Oh, ill dive right in, mind you.. no chickening out me. I am looking at the long drop down, and am praying to God that the chord doesnt snag or snap. i am taking a deep breath.
Im at the point in my life when everything is arrayed in front of me, and its up to me to pick and choose. It is an incredibly exciting feeling. and i guess, it is this way of thinking that sets me apart from some of my peers. some find it scary, facing the future. the future is something that is made. no point in fearing that, as far as im concerned. It is power.
future good! future our friend! dont fear future.
im sure when the time comes, ill spread my arms wide and jump off the cliff, wide eyed and excited, yelling and laughing and all the way down.
'waaaahoooooo!! geronimoooooooooooo!!'
gosh. all of a sudden, i have this strong urge to bungee jump.

this last couple of months have been interesting. There were lots funny moments (I like the word 'funny'.. it can mean so many things =P) that i probably wont forget for quite some time.
then, there were GREAT moments.. mostly brought about by my friends and our intense bond..
overnight at paolo's to EARN a 95 at photojrn,
my puking all over the bathroom in pao's bday party..
OJT hunting.. and of course, SOURCE and GENERALS, to name a few...
then, there are the AWESOME, UNBELIEVABLY GREAT, 'HOLY SHIT!' moments that only one person in the entire universe can make happen.. :)
like my huge surprise birthday party a week ago (THE BEST BIRTHDAY EVER!),
all the time she spent hours in my house, working on our thesis (and bonding with my family),
and the indescribable march25.. :) what an awesome day..
of course, there are those moments that arent even worth blogging.. but then again, there are always gonna be those moments.
i've grown a lot this year.. ive gotten more calculating, less impulsive. i know my piorties, and i have never been so confident before. sure, there are problems, but none of them are insurmountable.
with my friends and my girl at my side, the future looks bright indeed.
with my skills and my talents. with my will and determination to see myself and mine through,
look out.
and so, i end another school year, another typical thomasian, ab, journ, year in this section, with its mountains of work, and its unending "issues" with that signature self satisfied smirk of mine.
im happy with my year.
