Dismissed from drama school with a note that read “wasting her time,
she’s too shy to put her best foot forward”. . .

Turned down by a recording company who said “we don’t like their sound, the guitar music is on the way out”. . .

Ulysses S. Grant

Cut from the high school basketball team, he went home, locked himself in his room and cried. . .

Michael Jordan

A teacher told him he was too stupid to learn anything, that he should go into a field where he might succeed by virtue of his pleasant personality. . .

sa kabila ng ginawa mo, napatunayan ng pinoy na:

1. kaya palang magtulong tulong sa oras ng pangangailangan.

2. kaya palang ipaisantabi muna ang pulitika para malagpasan ang krisis (kahit na may iba pa ring namumulitika kahit sa pagtulong). I'm speaking in general.

3. kaya pa rin maging masayahin sa kabila ng pag-iyak at paghihirap.

4. kaya pala ng kabataan ang pagtulong at pag give up sa mga bagay kung saan sila kumportable para lang makatulong at makapag volunteer.

5. kaya palang lumabas ng mga artista sa publiko kahit walang make-up para makatulong sa mga nasalanta :)

6. kaya palang tumulong ng mga estudyante kahit walang kapalit na grades.

7. kaya palang bumangon ng pinoy pagkatapos ng matinding dagok sa buhay.

8. at kahit ano pa ang dumating, kayang-kaya na ng pinoy :)

minsan kahit anong dumating sa buhay natin, look at the brighter side. it won't help to grieve. i mean, it's a natural reaction na makita mong damaged ang properties mo and everything pero after that, smile and face the world! Life must go on. And i'm grateful that Ondoy united the people although in a not so plausible manner.

salamat ondoy, pero please wag ka nang babalik. :)



busy

this is what i do when i don't blog, facebook or ym. . .


with my very first "russell crowe in a beautiful mind" patient.



busy-busyhan. sorry for not being able to join you guys esp. batch 98. bawi ako next time. di lang talaga kaya ng powers ko :( thanks for understanding.

sabi nga nila, smile though your heart is aching, i mean itching (para maka gimik :) hope to see you guys soon.

in less than a year my life would be different :)


why i wasn't there at tita cory's wake. . .

same reason why i didn't attend raul roco's wake -- i never wanted to see them just lying there knowing that their presence would soon be missed. they were two of the very few people i truly admired. i just wanted to remember them the way i saw them in person, so alive, so strong and so influential.

yes, there's a slight bitterness in me for not being able to pay my last respects to these two inspirations, for not being able to be part of history. i'm sure my children and grandchildren would someday look at the pictures and ask if ever i was part of these events. i would say no, but i would explain to them the importance and impact of these people's leadership to the filipino people. rest assured, their legacy and influence would always linger and may these guide me and inspire me in my future endeavors.

paalam. . .
