Today's events were a combination of frustrations and realizations. As I try to regain my energy for tomorrow's work (and that would mean A LOT), I begin to think of today's events as ticks in my counting list of my life's frustrations and realizations.

1. Ironically, I have come to realize that apathy is prevalent in our college. If media has some effect or impact in our society (I am not talking of immediate effects here but on effects on humanity), then it is important for future media practicioners to be aware of the social system where media operates. Otherwise, they would end up as machines--operating on a mechanism that they take 'as is'.

2. It is just frustrating to know that some of the things I have planned for my 21st year of existence aren't coming to reality. I have planned on sparing some time for gym, for the arts and many others. Apparently, I have not done anything to even put them close to being real. What's worse is that I feel like I am giving inadequate effort on those things that are on my hands right now.

3. I just realized once more that I don't like very hot and humid weather. Aaah!

4. GMA should be ousted. I am in for revolution. Governments were set up with the idealism that our classical thinkers had. With leaders, there are no compromises--they knew what they ran for and they should have done what they were supposed to do. NO CHANCES.

Forgivness is not wrong. But they have long used the principles of leadership, idealism and patriotism to convince us to put them in place. Why can't we use the same principles their ouster? What is wrong with her? It is a country's welfare that is AT STAKE here, and not some group. Even if it were a group, she should have shame in not meeting the group's expectations. She was voted (or not) with the expectation that she was close to the ideal, then she should have acted like one.

According to her, more or less, a person can't go untainted with a system like ours. She has become a part of a present system, in fact, she even headed it. A meaningful movement should be done to change that system. And as part of it, it is more heroic to help hasten that change than to take hold of its retention.

REVOLUTION. CHANGE.

Good Service
Bought myself a new pair of glasses. My astigmatism has been causing frequent headaches and vomitting.

The news came just on time when I thought those headaches were caused by high blood pressure. I also found out that my astigmatism got higher... whew.

From now on, I am switching from Vision Express to Ideal Vision. I got a pair of branded frames for 2/3 the price plus I got a freebie.

Since I am bound to wear glasses forever (unless I can afford to buy myself those expensive contact lenses for astigmatism), I wish that I can save enough money to buy myself those transition lenses (lenses that turn dark when used outdoors).

Lesson Learned

Is the phrase 'in God's time' used to make you feel better whenever things are not going the way you expected them to be? What if those very things you were praying for never came at all, does the concept if God's time still count? Is that the time when you can safely say that he has better plans? And if something comes up which has nothing to do with the thing you previously expected, is that his better plan? How can you say it is better when the fact is they sprang from different contexts? Is the phrase 'God knows the desires in your heart' valid in that case?


Out in the night that covers me,
Black as the pit from pole to pole
I thank whataver gods maybe
For my unconquerable soul

In the full clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody but unbowed

It matters not how straight the gate,
How charged with punishment the scroll
I am the captain of my fate,
I am the master of my soul

I feel really bad today. Opened up my mail and read something.

The deal is this... I was supposed to attend our Executive Committee meeting for UP Haring Ibon. Unfortunately, I was not able to. (I actually thought that I could make it despite the fact that I am not allowed to go out when I don't have any classes).

Another misfortune happened when I realized that some people were expecting me to be with them today. The deal is, I have no plans of doing that... my original gameplan was to spend time with them and hit off another destination. But this doesn't mean that I am off my responsibilities. I actually had plans on my mind already. I was even planning on handling stuff myself.

I blame myself for not telling them. Another (unfortunate) case of miscommunication. I just feel bad. It seemed like I left all my responsibilities on hold for today...

... I guess I actually did but not deliberately as some might suggest.

Was mad at John for not bringing my registration materials last Monday. Doing prerogs almost made me crap inside my pants!

Was truly sorry for acting really stupid. Went really mad. Im just glad everything is over.

Hope John makes it in his interview for Globe tomorrow.


First days are always tiring. Whew. Got to plan my sem early. I have my acads, orgs, and the CMC student council to balance... not to mention friends and er... myself.

John went and bought a cake for my mom... It is always good to know that the people that both matter to you get along well. The only thing is I think my dad dislikes him for reasons that I can't say. Let us just say his malicious mind will get him no where...

Mom's leaving tomorrow. She'll be back to UAE to earn money so that we can go through school. (Same story with most people here in the Philippines). I sure am going to miss her. *sigh*
