As we were having an ordinary lunch at home, my grandmother recounted her insights on high school graduation. As a fresh graduate, I was intrigued with what she had to say. Nanay has always been a wise and insightful woman and lending her an ear wouldn't hurt.

It was December then, a time of the year that's full of joy and generosity. But then, fate had to play with my nanay. She was diagnosed with weak lungs. It made her sickly leading to frequent and long absences at school. What's worse is that she was already on her senior year then. Three more months and she will be marching up onstage for graduation. With her worsening tardiness, the school administration had to remove her from the roster of graduates. It was a very sad time in her life. My grandmother didn't lose hope. She held to the idea that she could enroll as a senior student on the coming school year. She was full of hope and was gearing up during the summer when unfortunate events start to come one after another after another and after another. Indeed, as the cliché goes, "When it rains, it pours." Her father got sick and no one but her oldest sister provides for all nine of them. Her mother, my great grandmother, talked to three of my nanay's siblings and together with my nanay, that they had to stop schooling. They were so down, financially and even emotionally. Nanay had simple dreams, she wanted to finish high school, go to college and have a degree whatever it is, she just wanted one. Having to stop schooling broke her heart, crushed even. I asked her what she really wanted to become and she answered with a simple sentence, "Titser lang, okay na." She told me that she is very happy that I have graduated from high school and that I am going to a very reputable college.

She made me realize how important education really is and that how lucky I am for having parents being able to send me to prestigious institutions. As I heard this story from her, she inspired me to study really hard and have a grab to that college diploma. As a high school graduate, all I have to offer to her as of now is my high school diploma. To some it may be nothing but a piece of parchment paper but to her, it is a fulfilment of her dreams for me and for herself as well.

College, I will conquer you. ;)

Hello! I love writing so I put up this blog. I don't write on a regular basis. Whenever I’m feeling it and there's internet connection, I blog. There are a lot of things I blog about. The things I watch, the vacations I go on to and my digital creations. I'm a big Miley Cyrus fan so you might see entries about her and her songs here. I love watching Heroes. I am interested in pop culture. I am a junior BS Life Sciences major at the Ateneo de Manila University. Someday, I can see myself as a successful cardiologist. I love travelling and USA, Greece and the Philippines are the three countries that I would like to take a tour in. Photography is just one of the things I do for fun and I'm not really serious about it. My love for being behind the camera is just as much as I love being in front of it. I have a lot of dreams and I will do everything just to reach them. I have many fears, too. One weird thing about me is that I am afraid of baby dolls. There are also a lot of things I adore. I love shoes, chocolate, pink, books, show business and a lot more. I can say that I'm an above average student. I like Science, Computer and most especially English. I don't hate Math but I just don't like it as much as I like the other three subjects I have stated. I was born and raised in Pangasinan. Although it is a province, I am proud of being there. There are a lot of advantages, you know. I don't have a big clique with my high school friends. Actually, it has always been just me and my best friend. We just happen to be really friendly. Haha! We go with girls who have their own cliques but we sure get along. I prefer chilling out in one of my friends' houses than going to the mall. I love watching movies be it animated, drama, comedy or romance. I'm not picky when it comes to food. I eat a lot of things. This explains my current body built. Alright, now you are oriented with who I am. Just keep on reading my posts for you to know me even more. ;)
