month.that.means.end.

Hey, Aby…thanks for that…well, umm “inspiring” words…hah! Did you know that Juan Miguel is actually John Michael Escarro? (Tagalog version…rather translation of his name)…

Funny…I just realized that today is Saturday, March 25, 2006…one month after that incident in that bar (we took some scenes in a bar…hah, funny isn’t it? Well…that bar is actually an old house, just “metamorphosed” into a–bar). It caused me too much pain on my right foot, got a bad hit that day, thanks to that extremely heavy narra table! Though I could say that the shooting for Noli me Tangere is quite a success. I am remembering one moment in time, when we went straight up to… Sobien is the place I guess, if my memory did not fail me this time. It was for a talk (yes, it is not a seminar…it is more likely to be called a “talk”). Funny…the speaker sounds like my uncle (jRb…you know my uncle, right?)haha…well, not really…just a bit. ;)

I realized that it has been…a month, over a month perhaps…and march most likely sounds: the Armageddon! I mean, the end journey. March, definitely sounds like : Fin…

How fast time flows like water… Before, I was cycling with Jan Robert…discussing what could happen within the ten-month “raging waters” with the warlock, the dark maiden, the joker, the red scientist, and the “pudgy” theologian… (I would like to thank Leandro for the “terms” :D ). Now, we bid our dearest farewell, to these strong-hearted, wisdom-filled masters of the third floor… Like what I have said, it is not yet the end…for we are just beginning to see the real us…the real them…the real LIFE.

~~~
This blog turned out to be my journal…hayy…I miss the days when Miss Lei asked us to make journals for her portfolio…It was a time consumed correctly, and wisely. My English improved drastically, and to be honest… grammar was corrected (somehow…haha)

~~~
I just remember that everybody is changing…whether it is physical, social, emotional and even spiritual…everything changes, and there is nothing we can do about it…adapt? No…we should not easily adapt, for adaptation is just for those who do not stand firm on their philosophies, rather we should be resilient… Be strong in the circumstances that we will face, and then, turn around…give thanks to the people who gave us the most smiles and tears, and then say…you made me…
It would be better, I guess…when we all experience this…we could say in the end…that life is indeed worth living for than, death ? (i hope this sentence contains little grammatical error…huhu…)
~~~
I will be reporting back to school this week for the Baccalaureate Mass…what a week I will have…

Live Simply so that Others may Simply….LIVE

24 03 2006

No wonder…what has has happened has…a bearing to each and everyone…no wonder….

Nah…forget about what I am saying…I am such an “idiot” to mention these things.

I now see the ironies of the goings-on in the school, in the bonds that formed this year, and worst…well, I see almost everything…

I still wonder at the different things that is happening for the past 48 hours…48 hours. Within the past 48 hours, I have viewed my life once again as monotonous…but some twists has entered my system, unknowingly and surprisingly…and knowing me(of course, I know myself..somehow…) I would adapt to these immediately (sorry…SOP, Standard Operating Procedure).

I hate it whenever I am being challenged by people who I dont want to contest! You know…this makes me feel weaker…

Looks like…I really have to adapt to the different environments, just like what I have said years ago…live to serve…serve to live…. but remembering one denominator over all things:

Live Simply so that Others may Simply….LIVE




A way never I have never comprehended

21 03 2006
Today is Tuesday…the day when Morrie usually meets Mitch Albom…the author of the nonfiction book, entitled Tuesdays with Morrie. I have never seen too much importance in the book, and I find it very…well irrelevant (knowing that they meet on tuesdays). However, I have seen more than enough this past few months of my Junior life…well actually…the ten months of my junior life.
 
I never saw a path…i never foresaw a path coming…and dictating me to tread that peaceful path. I guess it was a challenge, but for me? It is not a challenge, rather…it is a way of living that I should follow.
 
The path that I am seeing is different from those I have seen for the past five years. I have been seeing the path to politics, and medicine, and even astronomical science, and physics (which are for me, the most difficult science…because most of these fields..the astronomy and physics…are in theoretical fields). I have also met the way towards full service of the people through service (entering the seminary…ending up as Rev. Fr. Ian Christian Cadelina. SJ… I did feel the "calling"…but I guess it really is not my path to what I see as "destiny". Miss Lei insisted that, if Vientiane is a pope…then I am a saint(?!) My goodness, am I really an icon to look at?
 
Nevertheless…I am seeing a way…a way I have never foresaw to tread.

A special message to the Fidu pillars:
 
Keep soaring, guys…never surrender…remember always that the sky is darkest just minutes before the sunrise!
