Last Community Service

Words to Ponder: "True temperance teaches us to dispense entirely with everything hurtful, and to use judiciously that which is healthful... The body should be the servant of the mind, and not the mind to the body."

~ Ethel R. Nelson

Bad thing here was it was our last community service here in Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife Center but the good thing here was not only I’ve learned how to clean my surroundings; I’m also done in our NATSER 1 & 2. I really enjoyed and had a good time.

This is kuya Herbs. He's the one in charge for us.

Peculiar feeling

Words to Ponder: The oldest shortest words - "Yes" and "No" - are those which require the most thought.

~ Pythagoras

Just got home from school and had this ‘peculiar feeling’. It was like your heart was shot by an arrow and it pierced severely through your heart. On the other hand, it was like giving your best to a particular subject and yet no one appreciates what you are doing. Did you get my point? Neither do I can’t explain it any longer but one thing is for sure, I don’t want it to linger.

“Those things I have spoken unto you, that in me you might have peace. In the world you shall have tribulation, but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”

John 6:33 (K.J.V)

Found this 'exotic' flower. Lovely...

As far as I know, it is our last month here in ‘Parks and Wildlife’ so I want to cherish and share all the memories we had and will be having. This morning, our job was to put a twig or branch in the cage of the cockatoos.

Promise is a promise

I was supposed to meet Kathy, my former schoolmate, last Wednesday but I was doing a one week fasting and I also attended some burial. So I promised her that we’re gonna meet today and that’s what happened. We met around 12:30 and then we went to Glorietta to have some lunch.

On our way to Greenbelt...

I bought some batteries for my dig. cam.

Lunch in Goldilocks...

Had some conversation and one thing I can't forget is when she told me, "H'wag mo kasi seryosohin lahat ng bagay... just enjoy..."

We then went to our Alma Mater...

I missed this hallway. A lot of memories =( I'm gonna be here next Wednesday 'cause its their intams.

Life is too short...

Words to Ponder: "Obedience is better than sacrifice."

Just got home from Loyola Memorial Chapel in Edsa because we visited the burial of ate Val’s cousin. Breast cancer was the cause of her death at the age of 34. That’s way too early! Truly, life is very short. I mean, when God wants to take your life you can’t do anything. What if at the age of 25 you’re already dead and God will ask you, “My son/daughter, how did you spend your borrowed life on earth?” My point is productive enough to use your life. Remember, we only have a one chance to live here on earth, why not use it for God.

for the second time around, the prof. is absent!

nice pic...

1st day of class

Words to Ponder: "Our manners show others what we think of them. They also show others what they should think of us."

~ Fred Hartley and Family, The Teenage Book of Manners

Yup! Today is the first day of our class in 3rd term. I’m so excited to meet my old and new classmates. Everything went well and I thank God for that. The excitement that I felt was indescribable. I believe that God will be doing something great this term as in GREAT!!! I’m so excited and I just can’t hide it!!!
