Fresh New Start

The time really turns its pages really fast. Just like the sun would set in an instant and as the night says farewell to sleepy heads, you can't imagine what happened to you the moment you are awake and what happens to the world the moment you are sleeping...

It's already August... and i really haven't noticed it.

From 48 kg when I first arrived in Antique from a stressful school year at on of the Chinese schools in Iloilo, after only nearing 2 months (May 10), my weight is increased to 58kg... now imagine that. Meaning? There's no other place like home.

I'm currently teaching at the University of Antique. But wait! Why do people keep on thinking if there really is University of Antique? They thought that Antique doesn't have one. hahaha. But they are aware of the Polytechnic State College of Antique which was so yesterday.

I'm enjoying every minute of stayinh here. I really don't think of transferring schools anymore. I'm earning way much than my other salaries in the past. The work load? Very not tiring. hahaha. If only chances will allow me, I really don't like to depart from this haven. The haven which is very relaxing and comforting.

It's been a while...

first, i really don't know what to put in here. there's no subject which i want to discuss. maybe i'm running out of ideas because i'm aging. and it's really fast! i'm starting to have wrinkles and my eyebags are sagging. wait, don't mind about the eyebags cuase eversince, that's already sagging like that of senator pimentel.

i have an idea. how about i enumerate significant and memorfable events according to date? that's brilliant. don't cha think? (para lang may masabi)

April 23...
well everybody who knows why this daye is worth celebrating. it's my birthday. my brother gave me a budget of 10,000 to spend for it. i had lechon baboy, spaghetti, salad, fried chicken, valenciana, cake of course, bihon and a lot more. aside from that i have cases of softdrinks and mawawala ba naman ang beer? c'mon of course not. beer is the second best invention after condoms! and what's worth celebrating it is that i had my family and friends to come over to spend this special day with me. and ateh (adel) was also here in the house.

April 28...
five days after, it's madranca's religious fiesta. but i did not care about it. what really happened amazingly was that was the day may sis in law gave birth to my beautiful niece. my brother who is the father went to manila that time to fetch my brother (who sponsored my birthday) there because he went home after 8 months of work in the ship. we did not inform the father that my sis in law gave birth. so it was a surprise. since you already got the idea that the father was not there, i bet you know who stayed in the hospital to look after my sis in law. nobody but me. second time tito of course. i did not sleep actually. i went home at 6AM after my sister in law's mom arrived.

May 1...
it's san jose town religious fiesta. i invited my barkada to come and party in the house and share the food that we prepared. gamay lang man to ginhanda namon. hahaha. we talked, sang, drank and ate whole day finishing at around 10AM i think. for the glimpse of what we did during this day, please visit my faceboook account and there, i uploaded our video/s.

May 10...
the firsty ever, history-breaking automated national and local elections for the whole philippines.
i enjoyed lining up and waited for my turn to make fun of myself in front of the PCOS machine. but luckily, i did not. it's just amazing. i'm proud that i voted GIBO. he's my candidate. noynoy is for the sympathetic, villar is for the businessmen, erap is for the fame-seekers, perlas is for the fishermen, jamby is for those who want to get rich eventhough they don't have the right to claim a property and GIBO is for the intelligent like me. Gordon is for the disciplinarian i think. we are ready to go home but when i passed by the antique national school bulletin board, there posted was the schedule of the interview and demo teaching fot those who applied for the school. and i was shocked! i paniced. but i gained my composure. i still have 1 week to do this and be ready.

May 17...
the interview came and humbly speaking, i impressed the eveluators and interviewers as well as my co-applicants.

May 18...
the demo teaching day. no worries. i nailed it.

May 19...
compter literacy and proficiency day. i finished and perfected the task for only 30 minutes.

Fast forward...

after the evaluation because i don't know the critearia, i need to get the english proficiency exam on the 19th of june, i already got 70 percent just in the demo, interview and computer exam. this is supposedly confidencial but i don't care. i'm a talker that's why they can't blame me.

as of the moment, the university of iloilo and university of san agustin want me to be part of their institution. but i'm waiting for the result of the ranking and my application in the university of antique. i really want to teach here in antique because everything's free here and is abundant. count also in fresh air. hahaha

i am currently enrolled in the masters of arts in eduation (filipino) at west visayas state university. classes start june 12. can't wait to be a student again and to avail of things that students avail. hahaha

My Life in the Purgatory

Days to count but lots of work to finish...

I'm happy that it's already March 24. My resignation will take effect on the 31st. I can't wait for that day to come... But as i hurry for the said date to come, so many things burden me. It's like i consider them barricades for me to finally get out of hell. I really feel that I'm in the purgatory - waiting for my verdict... Whether i will be in hell or i will now taste my heaven. I don't know if there really is a so-called purgatory. But according to Dante Allegheri, there is.

Taking into consideration what I'm feeling now and where i devote most of my time that even in the late hours of night, i can't help but think of what my fate will be after i rest my eyes and escape the world of reality and journey to my fantasies. I really feel I'm in the purgatory. Somewhere in the middle of nowhere. I don't know if I'm going to the peak of Mt. Everest or I'm going back because somebody's pulling me to fall down and go back to where i started.

I'm in the middle of the crossroad. I still don't know which path to choose because even I don't know where might the path that I will be taking might lead. Although I know that paths do lead people to somewhere but for me, it's misleading me to where i supposedly be.

I really want to escape this dilemma. I want to understand and open my mind about this. The more i want it to be through, the more the days turn slowly. The more hours seem like days. I'm tired.

I'm tired... I'm very tired... I want to rest... to the fullest...

But as of now, only sleep can set me free the purgatory...
