Change is first met by resistance.
Every year, student leaders present themselves to us, and we choose. But even then, we are still imprisoned by the idea that there is no hope for a better student council, for a better anything, really. And we do nothing but wait for something, for anything, to happen – we watch them, as though waiting for them to fail. Read the rest of this entry »
I did not wait for the moment. I made it with the help of Ate Faith.

I have built countless relationships with so many people and each is unique, but there is one friendship that blossoms beautifully as time matures. It is a friendship where I find both comfort and peace, only by her presence. Read the rest of this entry »
I was rushing out of the room after my Philosophy of Morals class when I heard someone from behind me say, “Chiars, habol tayo simba!” I replied, “Uh? O sige!

Birthdate: 18 October 1990
Destined to meet in: the University of Santo Tomas
As we briskly walked toward the chapel under the rain, Lian, Monica, Karch, Cands, and I all together put our thoughts to respect the memories of Lian’s father. I watched her pray fervently after communion and I felt a sense of glow in her spirit. I can’t explain why but I felt at peace.

This blog is getting a little boring. Admit it. Haha!
I have never felt at ease sharing stories about my life/whereabouts online and it has always been awkward for me to broadcast to the world how I spend my days or even my vulnerability.
In my opinion, most of them are too personal for public consumption, that’s why I’m planning to re-format this WordPress account into something I’d be comfortable with, which I hope you’d still appreciate.
A lot of my entries involved ‘I’s and ‘me’s, so I decided to shift the angle to YOU. Soon, I will be deleting my previous posts and will replace them with more structured ones. Yes, they would still be very personal, just in a different sense.
In the coming entries, you will see my life in another perspective. A perspective not everyone has seen.
Change is exciting!
Baller band by the Focolare Youth
Finally, we are launching the “FOR A UNITED WORLD” baller band!
A fund raising activity by the Focolare Youth. Yey! And the org’s URL is at the back.
Woot! 
I am hoping this would give much delight to the Gen because we’re selling it for a very reasonable price. Let’s promote and help each other to build a united world, to fulfill God’s words, “So that All may be One.”
