believer in my Maker & Savior

From yesterday's blog, I just realized that really, it is God who loved us first. Loving him back or the opposite is just the response men give to Him. God has always loved and cared for us. There were times though that in our lives, we'd question Him of his faithfulness. However, I also realized that he's just always there and we are the ones who turn our
backs. For this day and all the days of my life, I thank you Lord for the love.

School started lasy week. I only go to school twice a week. Tuesdays and Thursdays, I have classes from 730 in the morning until 6 in the evening. I just got lucky that the one-period break I got was the 1030-12 slot, so I'll have time for lunch.

School feels different this time. I felt that I am more eager this time to study and read my books, compared to the past semesters. Probably, it's because this is already my senior and last year at school. Or it might also be that I have stricter teachers now. Well, whatever the reason may be, the good thing is that I feel better because I am doing what I have to do in the first place--to study, study and study.

Talking about my teachers, I think I have fair good ones this sem. It's inspiring to have Dr. Ramos for my Abnormal Psychology class. Her seniority works to our adavantage in that she has so many experiences and insight to share. The first few weeks, some words from her hit me. I don't take notes of her lectures because her teaching assistant, also my former professor Mr. Weevens Ty, uploads the powerpoint presentations to the group site. The only things I take note of are some of her insights and ideas that are just go through one's heart and mind. I can relate to these two things she said; 1. The way we look will determine what we will see and 2) What one accepts as true to oneself can become a reality.

Another interesting teacher of mine for this semester is my Philippine History teacher dr. Totanes who seem not to run out of jokes. He just makes my last class so alive and energetic and full of laughters.

Also, my Educational Psychology and Theology141 teachers are great. Ms. Tyfany Lim and Maam Manansala are both very accommodating and considerate. The same thing I can say with my other two teachers for Psychology thesis class and Philosophy class. ms. Hechanavoa and Mr. Ibana I ca say are very good speakers.

See, I am fair. I never missed out on any of my teachers.

School so far is weighing me down I can say. However, I see this in a positive light. I want to be more enthusiastic with reading my books and really understanding the lessons in all of my classes.

I have no class tomorrow. I have to go to the dentist early in the morning. I don't want to procrastinate a lot this semester that's why I am conditioning myself to study ahead of time for this school year.

Thanks God for EVERYTHING, for the love and stuff.
Thank you for loving me back--always. Actually for loving all of us back.

I don't know why everyone in school thinks that I'm working too hard. I  know what they're saying. It's just that I really don't want to be idle. Except of course in times when I feel like resting or sleeping. Even at the gym, everyone thinks that I am working too hard. Well, I can't blame them. I am probably the only one there who workout almost everyday.

I am excited for school. This should be the best school year ever. It's my senior year and my last year in college.

My computer is not working. In the meantime, I am here at an internet cafe doing this. (sad). I am planning to bring both the monitor and CPU to a repair shop somewhere.

God bless everyone!

Last Tuesday, I was not feeling good. However, still I went to work. It was my last day of practicum at Headstrong. I knew there were a lot of things to do. From the moment I arrived, I already started working. One bad thing was that, my co-practicumer Annie, did not go to work. I ate lunch alone. I went out and walked in the streets of Makati to find a place/resto where I can eat. I ended up having lunch at Mini-Stop since I don't want rice nor fries.

The big suprise came when I was already preparing to go home, that was almost 5 in the afternoon. I was shocked when all the people from the recruitment department of Headstrong, came to me and invited me to eat pizza. Maam Bernice also handed me a small box of cake from Red Ribbon.

I was speechless. I did not expect them to give me a last day/good bye/ despedida party. They even joked around and asked me if I could extend. Unfortunately, there is nothing more that I can do since starting yesterday, (june 1), I already started at the OAA as a Registration Assistant for the reg period this semester (the first sem of my senior and last year at college).

I really had fun at Headstrong. I met several people and these people have become close to me and they have become my friends.

Tomorrow is my registration day, I am still not ready to enroll. I don't think I am ready even for the 1st sem. I am still on my vacation mode. I really wish that I'll get the classes/teachers/schedule I wanted.

I'm off to the gym to work out. I ate too much today.
