"Today you are you! That is truer than true!
There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
Shout loud, 'I am lucky to be what I am!
Thank goodness I'm not just a clam or a ham
Or a dusty old jar of sour gooseberry jam!
I am what I am! That's a great thing to be!
If I say so myself, HAPPY BIRTHDAY to ME!'"

-Dr. Seuss

"Time is Nothing."

I'm reading Princess Bride now. Trying to finish reading all the books I've bought before but never ever got around to reading. Hope it doesn't disappoint! The movie was ( Read more... )

But today, after spending the whole of "Mushy Day" (as my friends put it) in school, I realized that watching the whole world fall in love all in a day, is amusing and ( Read more... )

Grades are just numbers, grades aren't the world, but boy could they make you happy when gotten right. :D :D I got my course cards today, and they were better than I expected! They weren't as high as first term's, but they are pretty good nontheless. Despite my 65 in Math, I still managed to get a 3.5, YAY!  Thank you, Dr. Galvez, for making our ( Read more... )

Haven't had something like this in the longest time. I woke up this morning with, surprisingly, nothing to do.. I had finished my English survey report yesterday, as well as that Chapter 3 on Rizal's Life just by around midnight. Without ROTC or LaSallian layout duties, I proceeded to bum around at home. Bumming is fun! I wanna be a bum. HAHAHA ( Read more... )
