Shuffle.

|
Once in a while, put your ipod on shuffle. You'll be surprised with what randomness comes up. It's nice to have something random come up, while at the same time you could get something you don't want. Even though you get what you don't want, you heard something new. Sometimes, something comes up that reminds you of someone that's made you sad or upset at one point of your life BUT you still listen to it and reminisce about those times. Sometimes you get something that reminds you of the old times but even though you wish those times were back, you were glad you've moved on 'cuz you've learned your lesson. Sometimes you get those songs that remind you what you were like back in the day. Sometimes, it shows what kind of maturity you've grown into.

just like with an Ipod...


Once in a while, put your life on shuffle. You'll be surprised with what randomness comes up. [:

Disney-Pixar.

You know, some of the best movies I've ever watched has come from Disney-Pixar movies. Ever notice the lessons they leave you?

Monster's Inc. - Don't judge a book by its cover. There are more to life than just glory.
Ratatouille - You're never too small to do what you love.
Cars - Never forget the people who support you and have always supported you in your life.
Finding Nemo - Family will do whatever it takes to take care of you and have you in their arms again.
Meet the Robinsons - You are never too young to make your dreams come true.
Toy Story - Jealousy gets you no where.
Toy Story 2 - People always deserve a second chance.
The Incredibles - Teamwork and family will always succeed against all odds.
A Bug's Life - Never get taken advantage of; you can always refuse anything if it's unfair.
Wall-E - Take care of those you love. Love will conquer all.
Up! - Adventure is what you make of it; it's the journey you have in reaching your goals and dreams.



If only people looked at these lessons, the world would be a better place. [:
Now time to finish watching Monster's Inc. & Ratatouille tonight. Let's learn some lessons, shall we?

Wow, my first year of college is...done. Holy S%*$! I can officially say, I'm a second year in college. WHAT THE! Man, this year went by so fast. The one thing I regret though, is having such SUCKY grades. UGH! I'll fix it next year. I promise. Next year's grades are what's going to determine the year and how much involvement I'm going to have in the club I love so much. There's so much that has gone on all year. All I have to say is that, I don't regret anything...well a few. BUT if they didn't happen, I wouldn't be the person I am today. I must say, there's a lot for myself that I have to improve, but I'm proud of myself. I'm proud for surviving a hard year. You know, I've met so many people who have changed me to become a stronger person. I've also met so many people who have brought me down. However, every lesson is learned regardless of person.
I think that it's not only one person who has changed me, but rather a whole group of people. This is why, I love my two families away from own family here at home.

Living in Palmitas with a whole different group of people is like coming home to a family. They're always around and different people are home at random times. It's good coming back to people you can borrow stuff from or go to if you're feeling upset. Most importantly, support. Everyone just wants you to be happy and be close. We all take care of eachother, like a family. Palmitas...is like my mom's side of the family.
Barkada, is my dad's side of the family. The place where I get my personality from. Party, fun, culture, inspiration, drive, love. Everything that my personality grows from. It's good to have something like both sides of my REAL family. The two together is create my home away from home.

Graduates, I just want to say it was a real pleasure getting to know each and every single one of you. You have inspired me to shoot for the best in my academics as well as a love for my culture. You have showed me that everything is possible in college no matter how crazy it gets. Each one of you has showed me that anyone can do anything if you really focus. And most importantly, each one of you has helped me in one way or another in something & I can only thank you so much for it all. Best of luck for your futures and hopefully, I'll get to inspire you for something amazing one day.

2008-2009, You have been just fine. No matter what I went through this year, nothing can change how much I've learned. Regardless of whether or not I did as well as I would hope in all aspects of my academics, extra-curriculars, etc. I learned something new every single day. Next year will be different. Not a bad different, but rather a meaningful one. I can already feel it.

In the meantime, it's summer. Let's do this. [:

Go on girrrrrl. Go on girrrrrl.

So, it's been one whole day...HAHA...just a day and I'm already feeling this way. It's so hard. It's hard to listen to everyone talk about this all..what am I talking about? Barkada E-board. You know, it breaks my heart every single time I think about this. It breaks my heart everytime I HEAR about it. You know, people say that it's probably harder for those who ran but lost...nothing beats the pain of regret. I sit here listening to them talk about how excited they are. Don't get me wrong, I would be extremely excited if I was on board this year. All my friends are on the board and it's just awesome to see them so happy. I just feel so...jealous. I feel rather left out when I think about it. Why? Because all they talk about is what they're gonna do to bond. Then when I ask one of them to not forget about me and make time for me (jokingly of course), and he says "Of course I will! I will always make time for members!" Ouch. I'm more than a member. I'm your friend. What ever happened to you can still be friends? I mean, they talk about E-board being a clique. I just hope you guys can change it because I'm already starting to feel it since most of my friends are on it. It's just hard to be the only one of your closest friends to not be on board. How else can I put it? I'm jealous. I'm not gonna lie. I'm so jealous. I just wish I could do what I want...but my heart is telling me to do what I need. *Sigh* Decisions I have to make, choices I have to choose from, aches I have to heal from. One day...it'll be my time. But I won't make my friends just regular people that I overrule.
