LECTURES and ONELINERS

most of the time, these days, in an effort to be more sensitive and caring and to transform my image from the knowledgeable-possible-blackmailer to a knowledgeable-kind-helper type, i have developed a certain inkling towards giving advice or short "lectures." yes... yes... to those psych majors hanging around, i know giving advice is wrong but i'm looking at it not as a psychologist but as a friend and a part of the community. i would usually open with a line that goes, "i invoke the right of fraternal correction."

here is one of my one-liners:
"there is a clear difference between admitting to yourself how you really feel and what you are going to do about it."

admission is one painstaking process that one must go through, especially when the feeling is love. before we could go through with anything, we must be certain of what is going on within. then, you will stand up and fight for this admitted feeling. doing something about it is a whole different story all together.

there there.

SUPRISE surprise!

actually, i'm quite surprised that i haven't blogged for 1 month now. well, i don't blame myself. for one thing, everytime i get to finish a successful entry, my computer would restart and unfortunately, the entry was not saved. another reason is the really, and i mean REALLY, heavy workload for me at least - aclc, ateneo, everything. it does not seem very obvious that i have tons of work to do because i'm a type b person and i seem to be in control but i think everything is taking its toll on me. whooooo... relax. one day at a time.

what's keeping me busy lately? everything. it's the whole discernment thing going on in my org. you know, discernment does not limit you to the decision you have to make. it involves everything about you as a person. you have to break down every single piece of yourself before you can make a sound discernment and that is exactly how i feel now. i feel that i'm slowly tearing myself apart and looking at myself piece by piece.

another thing, too many issues are circulating and too many things are going on in the lives of my friends. the only consolation i get is in talking to people i really love talking with. enzo, geoann, kevin, chel, and the list goes on. but, for the past week, thank you for bringing consolation into my heart.

more stress are coming my way. i can feel it. i can sense it. oh well...
ONE DAY AT A TIME!
