looks like great people are destined to leave sooner than expected

March 8, 2009, my family and i experienced one of the biggest blows in our lives. Honestly, I never thought that i would be able to move on from that tragic event. Why? obviously because she was my mom.. she would always be my mom. I believe that the hardest thing a person has to deal with is the death of his own mom or any of his parents.

I have already moved on, thank God! I'm done with grieving. I'm done with regretting, being angry at the doctors, accusing people as the cause of her passing, and other stuff. But, i won't be denying the fact that my tears still fall whenever i get to remember what just happened. It's all natural i guess. Things like these happen.

June 25, 2009, my favorite artist - the King of Pop, the Legendary Michael Jackson - followed my mom to the most sacred place. He was not just a talent, but also an inspiration. He was just so damn good in making inspirational songs! Despite his controversial life, he still was able to manage doing good songs, and with that, I don't just mean GOOD, but great ones with high quality. His songs aren't comparable of those of other artists who often write songs about personal love affairs, hatred, or songs basically based on their personal lives! He wrote songs about the people, about poverty, about peace, about love... And when it comes to pure entertainment, he doesn't make songs that parallel the works or go with the same motif of the rest of the artists abroad, his were always ORIGINAL. I'm not embarrassed to say that I cried upon hearing the news, and while watching his burial on T.V., i was sobbing. I can't help it. I grew up with his songs and the virtues that his songs carry. He's really one of a kind. I can't help but wonder what kind of Musical Industry would prevail without him in it.

Today, August 1, 2009, the great leader Pres. Corazon Aquino, the very person responsible for our democracy, have finally called it this morning - time's up. Being a student leader, I've always thought of Mrs. Aquino (as what she is famously known as) an epitome of an ideal President, a picture of an extremely responsible woman, an embodiment of a true devoted Christian. Had i given the chance to choose what kind of person i would want to become, I'd certainly be choosing her. For me, the word "GREAT" perfectly fits Mrs. Aquino, not just because she's a great friend, or a great mother, but also because she's the GREATEST president the Republic of the Philippines has ever had.

It deeply saddens my soul to deal with the fact that the 3 great people that I've been looking up to my entire life had to leave this wonderful world all at the same year. But come to think of it, their passing maybe because of the great demand of greatness in the after life. Well, looks like great people are destined to leave sooner. Would we dare to be great?

Well, I would.

hoping for a brighter future

i've been thinking a lot lately of the kind of future i wanna have... i know it's a bit too early for that but i can't help but worry about the future. i'm in college now and i'll be graduating soon (hahaha in 3 years actually). i don't wanna stray around and just depend on my father's income or something like that. i wanna have my own life! but, the thing is, i don't really wanna work. i don't wanna wake up early, eat - bathe - do necessary things - then go to work. i think it would be not so fun for me. actually, the only good thing about having a job is that you earn and you get to buy the things you wanna buy! life's really tough when you weren't born rich...(sigh)

so, i'm kind of thinking that i would continue on studying after finishing my bachelor's degree.i want to study medicine, enroll in one of the prestigious medical schools here in the Philippines. I wanna learn things, i want to continue on learning. i want to explore my talent in medicine and if i would fail? i'll try my luck in Law. who knows? i might excel at both.. right?... i'm just hoping for a brighter future not just for myself but for my family =)
