The Verdict.

The Verdict.

Hello guys! I promised to give you guys an update about how my examination turned out. After hours and hours of dreadful waiting and as one of my friends told me "Agony in the Garden", I'm sure that's not comparable but I really feel the same way. Anyway. The whole list of successful examiners was released a couple of hours ago and yeah I'm blogging about it now! 
Always Do Your Best. Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret. - Miguel Angel Ruiz
I passed! OMG! I can't even you guys. Thank you to all my friends and family for praying for me. I didn't tell a lot of people so I was really nervous that not a lot of people prayed for me but obviously, I have told enough people to lift me up! I actually think that even if I just only told my mom, I would still pass because she would be praying sincerely for me I guess but nevertheless, thank you guys! Not saying others didn't pray sincerely okay? LOL. When I found out about it, I went down right away and I told my sister first because she's the first one I saw and then my mom who apparently overheard it, asked me to repeat what I've said, went out of the veranda, hugged and congratulated me. I couldn't be any happier. Thank you mom for believing in me and for supporting me. Thank you for all your sacrifices! FYI, my mom woke up early for 2 days to make hatid to me at the examination venue. I owe you everything mom. This is for you. 


Thank you cousin for doing the same! I really appreciate you waking up when you were supposed to be still dreaming. Thank you to all my friends for praying for me and though I have been MIA lately, I'll make bawi. Thank you guys for praying for me. Diana and Nissan who probably asked me a million times when will my examination be starting probably June. I'm not gonna name you/them all but thank you to my college friends for encouraging me and being with me all this time. We made it! Basically, after each exam, we would all gather and be depressed all together. I would gladly write some tips for board takers when it's relevant but yeah.  

Congratulations to my good friend Kim, for making it to the top 10. Actually, she's Top 2 overall so congrats, friend! I'm so proud of you!! It all payed off! :) And you really deserve it! Kahit ano pa man yan, you're still our number 1. Congratulations UST for somehow proving your worth. Ninety-five point something ain't bad considering UST sent the most number of examiners but you know it doesn't matter anymore so whatevs. I love UST. It was my training ground and I would always look back to it and be proud that I was once its student. Naks. 

That's it for this update guys. I would be taking more examinations in the future but this one is the most important one for me. Because this is the most basic and I guess this would break or make confidence and in this case, it made me somehow confident but I should really exert more effort in the future. It's really a stepping stone and I'm really happy that I was able to step up and that I am sharing it with you guys. Thank you thank you thank you. To God be the glory.

Danke!

Danke!
Danke or Thank You in German is what I want this post to be known as. I don't know why and I wouldn't actually enumerate those in this post but I JUST WANNA. I feel like it.
I got this shirt from my mom as one of the presents for my Birthday :) I love myself. Yup! Oh and I saw my high school friend on our way there and I actually showed her my shirt and we just laughed at it. It was nice to see her. I have to catch-up with my high school buddies soon!

On a more serious note, I swear I just have to let this go. The guy in front of me was wearing a shirt with somehow a naked woman at the back of his shirt. I was like, wow! Does he really know where he's going?There were KIDS inside the church and he was with his family at the first place. DUH. There were a lot of things I noticed inside the church but okay I won't mention it na. BECAUSE I SHOULD BE CONCENTRATING ON THE MASS. Not the people. But sometimes I can't. I just feel like people don't know its worth any more. 

Moving on. So after the mass, we planned to go to Infinitea to chill and all that but since it's relatively new to that place, it's super crowded and we didn't want to wait so I was like, let's just go upstairs and find another shop. 
And then we went to Baresso. My best friend and I actually used to go there as high school students because the Barista looks like Mark Herras. Ha! High school kids! Haha. Too bad he's not working there anymore. Anyways! :D 
We both ordered something Mocha based because we just had coffee and chocolate earlier that time. So yeah. What can I say? I actually don't remember how their stuff used to taste like. I mean, way back high school but yeah I don't know how I feel about their stuff  now. I think that the flavor was too strong and somehow the drink itself was too sweet but their place is kind of cool. I just thought that I didn't get what I paid for. Their meals are quite affordable but their drinks are kind of expensive. Will definitely go back and try other stuff from there. That's all! :)

One Step Closer.

One Step Closer.
I don't know if I'm really just being obsessed with anything related to Breaking Dawn or what but recently, everything is just so relevant. I can't even. It's actually a very long and complicated process that we have been through. Like, falling in line here and there just to get this graduation picture over with. Like, seriously.

So I would like to share with you some of the pictures I took whilst I was there. How nice of me right? LOL.


So let's just go back to my story first. So my friends and I are actually scheduled at 2-3 pm. We are actually 3 in the group and one of them arrived at 11 am and still didn't make it to the photo booth early because even though she arrived earlier than the scheduled time, there are others who arrived earlier. Which I actually find unfair. They should have just followed the time they reserved for a certain student so we will all somehow finish on time.

WHAT A SYSTEM. When I came at around 1, I queued for make up and stuff and all that and yeah, after maybe 2 hours, I got called and voila! PICTURE TIME.


Some of my SELCAs because the official thingy is taking a long time to happen. Some I even took in the bathroom because the background there is pink. LOL.

So here it is. Like, it's been a long time coming. Like, somehow. I don't know but I just feel like it. And I believe I deserve it. Somehow people really deserve the things they want in life. Even though how hard it is to achieve. Oh well. That's actually another story but since it's completely relevant and similar to what we are talking about, let it be.

The shooting time itself is quite fast though. Like shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, and done. Just like that. So I don't understand why the system is so slow like that.

I have a friend who came at 8 and finished at 3. Like, seriously? Are we having a little photo shoot for a magazine here or what?  But I don't want to complain too much anymore.

Their make up artists are actually nice and all that . So good vibes. Also, their staffs are very accommodating. So yeah, forgiven. Okay let's go back to my GRADUATION STORY. Like, in less than five months, I'm already graduating with my first college degree. Awesome! :D Can't wait, really. Today is also very nice because for the whatever time I waited there, I am mostly with my friends so it's also like a get together of some sort. My friends and I are on different hospitals so it's always nice to catch up and all that.

Moving on... As early as now, I want to thank my parents for supporting and believing in me. I want to thank my sisters, brother, friends, cousins, and classmates for staying beside me and always cheering me on. I  probably wouldn't be able to make it without them. Thank you guys. This meaningful event of my life will be dedicated to all of you.

We're ONE STEP CLOSER.

Stuff! :)
Not so long ago, a friend of mine told me that she ordered some Liverpool stuff online and that she's basically just waiting for it to be delivered. Guess what? It came! Thanks, Kim! I think I'm just so blessed to have a friend who loves the football club as well :) And if you're wondering if it's the same Kim as this Kim, then YES. YAY!

Here's some pics for you!

Excuse the Sponge Bob bed sheet. 

Awesome!

I've been loving Liverpool since I don't even remember so I really loved this. Thanks again! :)

How important is a “thank you”?

How important is a “thank you”?
I cannot stress enough its importance, that is how important it is for me. I had this experience when I was still in the Call Center and it really drove me crazy for a second. I did someone a favor (closed the deal for him) and he did not even bother to say “thank you” voluntarily? Ha! I was waiting for it and initiated that he should say “thank you” and yeah he said “thanks”. A lame kind of “thanks” but anyways, it happened. Forgiven not forgotten.

It is just that we should not let someone do something good for us and make them feel like it is a wasted effort or that we do not appreciate a single fvck they are giving. We should be more civilized in that manner. Give it a try. It does not hurt much.

Is it not good to have someone help us or cheer us up and then thank them for that? I guess they would be happy too. There is no greater feeling than the feeling of being appreciated. You know that. Or at least second best. Or third. I do not care actually but you get the point right? I know you are wise. Thank you for being wise. And for reading.
