The "right" thing

After everything that happened, the right thing to do was to quit and walk away. But then again we don't always choose to the right thing. Sometimes we choose the opposite and we twist the reality until the wrong becomes the right. At times it work, at times it doesn't. But I'd rather keep twisting the reality until all the wrong becomes right than be boxed by the reality that others created. I choose to have my own reality.

Para sa diploma

Magdamag naglamay ng manuscript.

Walang tulog.

Walang ligo.

Walang matinong kain.

Walang matinong s*x.

Shit.

Paper jam.

Naubos ng bond paper.

Naubos ang ink.

Kulang kulang ang na-print.

Lampas sa margin.

Three hours late sa pagpapasa.

Naglakad sa katirikan ng araw.

I was thisclose to fainting.

Hay.

Konti pa.

Para sa diploma.

Ma'am Emy

"Kaya nyo yan Pips. I believe in you. Don't worry about mistakes. They are part of one's journey towards self-improvement. Today is just a speck in your lifetime. Try to do well but never think that who you are and who you can become is determined by just today."

That was my academic adviser's text message before we left Elbi to present the result of our study to our bosses in Batangas.

With our bosses

And I think we did well in the presentation.

Thank you Ma'am Emy.
