SMS

My friend Horeb sent me an sms reminding me to update my blog. Medyo inuugat na daw. :D O Reb, eto na new entry ko.

I sent this to all my mobile phone contacts:
Text me one memory we had together. The first one that pops in your head. Keep this going and see what they remember about you.:)

The following were their replies (Post ko, I have a feeling magiging masaya 'tong i-reminisce after several years):

CLAIRE (SOCIUS)- Kumakaen sa baba ng cbox, padating si *toot*. Tinanong ko siya, si *toot* ba yun? Sumagot si Claire, 'pag may nakalagay na MINOLA, siya yun!
MARGA (LAW SCHOOL)- The LFO Song. Girl on TV during Criminal Law 1 time. We love this song.
DONA (SOCIUS)- I blabbed someone.. It's a bit confidential so 'wag na lang. =) Alam na ng mga SOCIUS yun.
DIANNE (SOCIUS) - Food trip moments at our tambayan while waiting for Manang tindera.
AVERY (SOCIUS)- The Fight of the century. Yung away namin ni Paul sa tambayan.
DIANNE (LAW SCHOOL) - Our adventures with Cesar. Nakakatuwa 'cause hindi naman namin siya ka-close pero nakijoin siyang kumain sa amin sa SM. Dianne said "parang ang saya nyang kapitbahay, mahihingan ng toyo or patis anytime."
CHRISTIAN (CHESS CLUB)- Yung reporting nya daw sa akin as Chess Club applicant. If I remember it right, pinaarte ko yata siya as Sandara Park.
NICKI (SOCIUS)- Our friendship game with Beta Kappa. Naging close kami dito.
EDRALYN (DORMMATE) - Our morning ritual. Singing the "Pampers" song. "Good morning, good morning dahil sa pampers, ang slip mo, ang slip mo, mahimbing.."
OSANG (LAW SCHOOL) - Bevs = Gold bars. It's an inside joke. Siya lang yung nakakuha nung joke kahit ang dami-daming nakarinig.
ATE MHEDA (CHESS CLUB) - I act like "Dyesebel" during my Chess Club Rites.
LICA (CHESS CLUB) - During our Chess Club applicants days, we were always together talking about the pressure.

How about you? What do you remember about me?

Sink or Swim

I chose this phrase because it is the closest words that can describe what I am feeling right now. I am already in the quarter years of my life and yet I still feel that I haven’t done anything to justify my existence. I have aspirations but up to now, they are still aspirations. I haven't done anything to make them real. Too many questions kill me. Will I fail or succeed? Will I be mediocre or great? I do not believe in destiny. I believe that the only responsible being for all the things that happen to a person is that person itself. Therefore, whatever happens to me in ten to twenty years will be based on how I acted today – will I manage to swim despite the pressure of sinking? Or will I sink because I just can’t learn to swim?
