  I rarely watch primetime shows because I stay out late. By the time I am home, it's time for the 700 Club (hehehe). When I first saw PBB, I wasn't able to recognize a "kababata" of mine. However, few episodes before his eviction, I had this feeling that I knew him. On the night of the eviction, I was surprised to see Tita Mila on TV and some other peepz from la union. Suddenly it hit me! It was Joseph Benedict Aquino Magsaysay! Yes! JB! JB's maternal grandmother, Nieves Aquino is a relative of my paternal grandmother. Suddenly I remembered the good old times. JB and his siblings did not really grow up in La Union, they grew in Manila. They just came home during the 1992 elections when his mom ran for congress. JB even became my cousin Melissa's childhood sweetheart (haaaayy....those were the days). After the election, they went back to Manila. Then again, they came back when one of his elder brothers ran for office. I guess, history repeats itself... he was defeated. Again, they went back to Manila. Last Christmas, I saw JB with his basketball team. He is not a player though. He was there to support his players as the SK Chairman of their barangay. Haaayyy... how time flies... Then I read negative write-ups about JB and even saw negative comments in PBB forums. I couldn't agree more. Yes, he is mayabang. But you know what? He ain't JB if he is not arrogant (if you know what I mean). Sana lang, magbago siya.

There are times when I really get through my nerves. There are students who come and ask me, "Ma'am, papasa ba ako?" or "Ma'am, may pag-asa ba?" And when you tell them that they might repeat the subject, they will ask for extra working papers for additional points. There are those who would ask with all humility and there are those who would ask with arrogance. If I believe that they have done their very best and yet, not enough to get a passing mark, I give them a chance by giving extra working papers. But if I believe that I have given them all the chances in the world but they're the ones taking these chances for granted, sorry... They simply have to re-enroll the subject. Fair enough huh? Guys, it's just a matter of knowing what your priorities are. Perhaps, you don't like your teacher, or the subject... But hey! That should not stop you from becoming the best that you can be. Trust me, I know. Besides, I was once a student just like you.
You can have it all. You just can't have it all at once. -oprah winfrey- There are times when we wish that we have this and that. For as long as we work hard for the things we like to have, there's nothing wrong with that. If it's meant for you then it will be given to you but if it's not, maybe God is going to give you something better. It may not be what you want but it is what you deserve. Things would come your way one day at a time... just pray and work really hard for it.
All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible. T.E. Lawrence
