It's been two years since I last posted anything in this blog. A lot of things have happened since the last time I posted. I lost two persons close to my heart due to stroke, my dad and my uncle, in a span of two months in 2015. I had to go on awol from law school, and had to play catch up once I decided to return.
People say that I have a strong personality, and that they admire my resolve and will to move on, despite the challenges I have faced. But lately, I find myself doubting each decision I have made since 2013. The phrase 'is it worth it?' had been a recurring thought whenever I go to school.
How can a person remain strong, when the source of their strength has been taken from them unexpectedly? I may seem confident and full of encouraging words, but then I realized, that the one who needed the encouragement the most is myself.
I miss you so much, Dad. Please lend me your strength once more. I need to make a decision. Please give me your guidance, Lord.

Of entrance exams and elections…
I took the entrance exam for PUP College of Law in Sta. Mesa last May 11, 2013. I was part of the third batch of hopeful examinees. We were advised at the start of the exam that we were all scheduled for the interview at 12nn on May 18, 2013. First come, first served basis. I guess that made sense since there were like forty (40) slots remaining for the first semester. Being punctual would help big time I guess since it would show how determined you are to get that coveted spot.
Would it be too much if I arrive for the interview an hour early? Or would that be weird? Anyway, I hope that they would still consider me for enrollment even if I don’t arrive for the interview early. *fingers crossed*
On a more serious note, I just finished casting my vote for our midterm Senatorial and Local election. Our precinct was one of those who have low voters turn out so it didn’t take me and my sis more than fifteen minutes to cast our votes. Though the PCOS machine returned my ballot twice, lol!
I guess the machine didn’t like who I voted for, teehee!
So yeah, that’s how my weekend and Monday was so far. Oh, and it’s raining right now, lucky! The temperature’s been nearing the forties (in Celsius) for the past few days and weeks so this weather change’s very much welcome.
How’s everyone’s day so far?

2010 and the year so far...
I know this is quiet late but what the heck! I might as well give it a shot since almost everyone did it. No harm in joining the bandwagon.
Year 2010 had been a great ride for me. It was a series of trials, happiness and anything in between. I'm grateful that although there were some financial difficulties, I was still able to overcome the trials I faced. Getting a part time job helped a lot and learning to finally handle my finances well made things better.
Of course, joining writing fests helped relieved my stress, so I guess i'll be joining more of these. It's great that I get to practice my writing skills and relax at the same time.
I am uncertain as to what 2011 will bring for me. I'm already feeling some disturbance in the peace at my workplace. But I know and believe that just like last year, I can weather all storms that life throws my way... with a little help from my family and friends.
Happy 2011! Here's to a prosperous and hopefully stress free year for all of us! Cheers!

Just got home...
...from attending mass - egads! Yeah I know, the world must be coming to an end lol! I do go to church once in a while - though I wish I stayed there longer. Our neighbors had been wailing, err, I mean singing since yesterday morning - and they aren't done yet - nor do I think they have plans ending their festivities anytime soon. *sighs*
Sometimes I wish I were one of those barangay officials so I have the authority to tell them to stop contributing to noise pollution. I mean, I do understand that they want to have fun - heck, I love singing when we have our family reunions - but come on man! Almost 36 hours of non-stop-out-of-tune-wailing-I-mean-singing can be quite irritating, no, make that annoying. *screams*
Okay, done ranting for now. How's everyone's weekend?
