Well, as you can see to my previous post. I enter law school and its been 3 years since then but after my 2nd year first sem in law school to my alma matter. I got dismissed because I receive a failing grade to my subject and such failure still haunt me every night. After what happened, I analyzed what happened to my performance on that semester so that I can justify the grades that I received. I tried to asked some of my family, my girlfriend and some of my friends. I received some motivational message and some negative thoughts which make me wonder if this is all worth it.

However, I still continue to pursue my dream to become an attorney but in another school with a heavy thought due to what happened to me in my previous school.

I know that receiving a failing grade even though you put an extra effort everyday to pass every subject was pretty hard to accept but as day passes by I realize that such failure can't stop me to fulfill my dream to become a lawyer and as I continue my legal study in another school. I've met some students who have been dealing with the same fate just like me. I heard alot of stories about what happen to them in their previous school and heard some encouragement about what we are aiming.

After almost 3 years in law school, I learned something that applicable in every situation in aspect of our life. That no person can deprived you to your own dreams, there might be obstacles or challanges along the way but such obstacles or challenges still part of your dream not to agonize yourself in achieving your dream but it serves as learning progress to help yourself as you go on to your life. Failure is not a mandatory situation.

Goodnight!

Gooodnight!
Goodnight! Tahnk you!

This coming June, I will come back to my Alma mater in college to attend another course. This decision was finalized after a year of analyzing the situation and whatever the result of this. I'm taking up Law. Yes, I will study law this coming school year, I know some of you will ask me if what I was thinking when I come up to this decision. actually this is my dream since I was in high school. I'm just being secretive of my plan, I had superstitious belief that if you have something in life just keep it to yourself only so whenever the odds may not be in your favor still your being humble and will try to aim what you want. I'm not that smart in class but I'm considering myself as a good student. Good student means I can get high grades and I can enjoy some extra curricular activities inside and outside the campus so when I told some of my friends and relatives I've heard some positive and negative comments about my decision. I expected their thoughts about this plan but at the end of the day, My decision will be the most important. Just like the song says "Pangarap ay laging habulin kahit kinakapos ang hininga mo ay pigilin"

I decided to bring them to Mt. Romelo. The plan was make it a two days hike and we are all 13 boys but some of us have a conflict schedule. so we became 5. (haha)

(from L-R) Paul Mabisa, Rabbi Ligo, Jayvee Tulog, Asher Boundary and Mors Bading. haha
(kaya ganyan ang pangalan namin kasi halos ayan lang yung ginawa o may nangyari kakaiba.
kaya si Paul naging mabisa kase halos lahat nung kasabay namin umakyat ay gusto sya. Hindi nman bago un
Rabbi Ligo dahil puro ligo ang ginawa ni rabbi dun.
Jayvee Tulog dahil puro tulog ang ginawa ni jayvee dun.
Asher Boundary kasi type si asher nung isang nakasabay namin halos ibigay na sa kanya lahat ng meron sila,
at Mors bading akalain niyo, napagkamalan akong bading?)

since it is a rainy season. we suffered the mud in Mt. Romelo (talaga naman na maputik dun)

(Unang Burol)

After some bottles, We decided to prepared our dinner since we are the only people on the campsite Sir Mike's Group and our group share some foods. ( walang kaming picture nung hapunan. pero madami kaming pagkain nun)

after the dinner, The socials began.

around 20:30 I decided to rest but Paul and Rabbi is still with the company of Sir Mike's group.

the paradox of our time

2011-08-02T07:28:00.000-07:00

we have taller buildings, but shorter tempers
wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints
we spend more, but have less
we buy more, but enjoy it less.

We have bigger houses and smaller families
more conveniences, but less time
we have more degrees, but less sense
more knowledge, but less judgment
more experts, but more problems
more medicine, but less wellness.
We drink too much, smoke too much,
spend too recklessly, laugh too little,
drive too fast, get angry too quickly,
stay up too late, get up too tired,
read too seldom, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.
We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values,
We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
We've learned how to make a living, but not a life
we've added years to life, not life to years.
We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet the new neighbor. We've conquered outer space, but not inner space
we've done larger things, but not better things.
We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul
we've split the atom, but not our prejudice.
We write more, but learn less
we plan more, but accomplish less.
We've learned to rush, but not to wait
we have higher incomes, but lower morals
we have more food, but less appeasement
we build more computers to hold more information to produce more copies than ever, but have less communication
we've become long on quantity, but short on quality.
These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion; tall men, and short character; steep profits, and shallow relationships.
These are the times of world peace, but domestic warfare
more leisure, but less fun
more kinds of food, but less nutrition.
These are days of two incomes, but more divorce of fancier houses, but broken homes.
These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throw away morality, one-night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer to quiet to kill.
It is a time when there is much in the show window and nothing in the stockroom
a time when technology has brought this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to make a difference, or to just hit delete...

2011-07-07T09:25:00.000-07:00

since I'm graduating this year (hopefully!) I decided to have more focus on my study and take a rest from hiking which is hard to do..

before the school starts, I saw the Documentary of GMA 7. after watching the documentary I decided to hike one more but it will be the last for this year and I will continue it after the graduation.

while surfing the net and looking for some place to go through. the problem arises in my head who will be my buddy in my hike. since some of my friends don't have hike on that month while others is busy for their work.

but then, I almost forgot my Girlfriend and also my best friend.

On that day, I text her if she can join me. we planned to hike twice but it never happen because of some incidents happen. so we decided that this would the right time to go with it.

we decided to hike with Mt. Batulao and try it on a dayhike( we decided to make it a dayhike because she have a work)

around 13:00 after eating lunch and some rest we decided to ascent to the summit but the weather condition starts to change the sky turns to cloudy. so, we ask ranuel if the weather is still ok but he answered "mukhang uulan po". we decided to not to ascent for the summit because of the weather condition. we try to captured some moments while we are in peak 8

this mountain was the first mountain that showed me the greatness of nature.

my cousin "jay" told me that they will hike a mountain in rizal.

since high school I'm already interested in doing some adventures especially hiking because some of my friends tried it also but since my parents was strict I couldn't join my friends.
(back to story)

since I'm an adult now. I convinced my mother to go with my cousin.

the day came, I was very excited I couldn't sleep.

Around 3 am. I'm ready with my backpack but my cousin still sleeping he said "ang aga mo naman. kumain ka muna dyan. mmya pa tyo mga 5 am aalis"

haha. so I was very early due to my excitement.

around 7 am. we start trekking.

since I'm a newbie (at this point in my life I'm still considering myself as a newbie). after several hours of walking I already got tired but the will of my eagerness boost my body. haha
