This my short story about how I start and end my 2007

January 2007 (fresh start)
Yehey, happy new year! Woohooo. This is the last time that I will hug my bigsis this NY2007, boohoo, because she will have a soothing trip to dubai with her fiance, our table is full of delicacies of course, it was made by my 2nd sis, hahaha, she was our cook in our home, sweet! As the start of SY2007 (1styr. 2ndsem) weee, scary! Because it’s the results of our prelims, damn, I don’t know if I do good in my subjects, and the results!, weeee, fascinating results! I can’t believe it! And for that I have an inspiration to be one of the partial scholars, wooo, go a06a03, take note of this one, I have a very long hair, I’ve just start last October 2006,


February 2007 (my naughtiest month, EVER!)
Well, what can you say in this month?; all mingles and jingles and please do the math! What am I saying! Hahaha, I can say, I love this month, ahaha, in my 1st dorm, every monday, we have a gin-bash (we’re always like wacky dodos!) we, always have a shot of those, “empi” and its my first time to have a taste of those, tobacco-in-a-stick and I don’t like at all, I’ve just finished 3 sticks and I said, “ok I’m through with that, I will never smoke again!” and every fridey, we called it, “starbucks night” and we have like a venti-size mocha frappucino, favorite ei!, yap you got that right!, every Friday, we’re always at starbucks Sm san Lazaro, but for now, we never do it again, how sad. During our Social Dance Classes, ah men!, its hard to a leader of the group! You must have an eager practice or else, our perfectionist Instructor we will booed you in front of the class, but for me, I have an inspiration to pass away all my nervousness, What!? Her name is veena, a 2ndyr student AHSE (now 3rdyr IN, wow, a responsible chick! Ok I love her now!) and for that, every time my bestbud have a practice with her, I will go immediately to watch there practice, wow, I hope I’m the one holding her waist, dreamy!, and for that time, im his chaperon, wow, I love it, one time, before valentines day, veena and my best bud, have their practice then when they’re both exhaust, they took a rest, of course me as well, have a little chat with veena, and went home. As we start walking down the road, she ask me if I had a date on feb.14, and I answered no, and she said, I don’t have a date as well, hahahaha, am I stupid, I forgot to ask her to have a date, because, I’m so shy and all I want is to fantasize myself with her hmmm, that’s so dreamy (hey what’s with your dirty mind!)


March 2007 (summer 2007, here we come)
Boohoo, this is the moment of truth, the maker will kill us with those killer questions, because it Finals, ahh men, you have to scan all those notes and for that, I have the greatest idea to pass our final exam specially in chemistry, together with my berks, we organize an overnight at proj.6, weee its my first time to go there, because I don’t know that place, sorry, innocent kid here!, hahaha, the funny thing as we arrive, before we go to there home, we went to “cherry foodarama” and I got so interested to say”cheri furiyama” haha, funny isn’t it? Ahaha, anyway, as my classmates went inside the department store to buy some toothbrush, my friend saw an angel, you know what I mean, so we follow it as the angel went out of the store, that was so close, anyway, we went now to our friend’s home to get some grub and have some fun like, watching tv, playing dOta, basketball and eating as well ahaha, so it happens, a short vacation, ahaahha, we’re just taking pictures, sound trip, watch some movies and we disturbed one of our classmates via telephone, ahhaha, it’s a prank call actually, speaking of telephone, one of my friends called our Filipino professor and we suggest that if he can be our proctor in our chemistry exam, no sweat, he said yes, ahahah, and we don’t have any problems taking that brain damaging exam, whooohooo, before we went in our different directions, we refresh our memories by scanning our lectures, asking some questions about the things that we forgot already. So we take our breakfast and straight to our dormitory, take a bath, change some clothes, and rush our way to our assigned room, ahahahaha, techniquelly speaking, we are so lucky, as in VERY LUCKY! Ahahaha, and the rest is history. As the day has come to released the scores, ahahh, till it so happens, the score, is very high, and one of my berks, got a score of, ***, that is it, ahahah, I can’t believe, he can’t believe as well, he said that it is a blessing, as then as SY2006-2007 comes to an sour note, we made it sweeter, as me, Ashley and Archie, went to mOa to have some fun, we watch a movie entitlted, Norbit, starring 2 eddie murphys, what? Yup no kidding, there are 2 eddie Murphy in this movie, then after, we went in our one way, as for me, I’ve already say goodbye to my 1st dorm, I will not tell you why I leave. And for that, summer here we come! And for that before we start our summer, my bigsister already leave the country to go Abu Dhabi with her husband, that is the saddest moment of my life and the worse thing, my father and my sister didn’t met for the last time


April 2007 (surprise or not surprise, oh great)
Oh yes, finally, I can see what will be my destiny here at F.E.U. , as I went to school to get my report card, whooohooo, I’m so excited, as for that, we go to EB to get our card, as we went there, where are the first in line, yes, I’m happy for that and as we received it, the insecure student ask us he said like this, “bakit ang tataas ng grades nyo lahat?” hahah, insecure, envious in his heart, I almost answer back with a ravage voice of mine, but I calm, I just think that we did our best, whats the matter if all of us have a very high grade. Is having a high grade a crime? I don’t think so, it’s just a boost before we reach 2nd yr. I’m proud of a06a03, way the go, as for that, I met ghe-anne, she was special to me, so we went to her home and gave me a buko pie, she knew that I like buko pie, hmmm, buko pie, anyway, as for that, I went home already. Actually, I didn’t reached the quota mark for partial scholarship, my mom saw me that I’m crying in a corner, and she feel it like my true mom, what? What I mean, she realized why am I doing this is because of my mom, I just want to show her how I determined to be one of the students of AHSE, ahaha, as for that, my mom, gave me a gift to say that, I really deserve that, slot, she finally done it, as for that, we went to a dentist and have those braces to put them in my mouth, ouch!, as for 3 days of pain!, it’s very painful you know!


May 2007 (we need some drastic measures)
As for this month, its heart breaking, I’m so stupid that I fell in love with a 21 yrs. old woman, with a hot body, oh c’mon, oh my gad! Dr. Lover is now heartbreaker, oh well, that’s life, as for that, I went to salon to have some drastic measure and I have my first haircut after more than 8 months, can you imagine how long is my hair after 8months hiding my myself to the never land, so with no hesitation, I let the stylist cut them all the way, and I will do the same thing after 2010, I hope I bring back my shiny hair. As the last week of this month, of course, enrollment time as of that, we regrouped with my classmates of what block should we pick, as of that, we have agreed that the block with the most number of slots or, a fresh one, that will be our section for the 1st semester. And that, we picked a06a12, wow, that’s so far from our former classmates, which they’re a06a01, and that, we have already enrolled and we will do what we have done for the past 2 semesters.


June 2007 (a new old thing, I hate it)
June 2007, everything is new, new shoes (thank god), new dorm, and a new faces to face off. Well I’ve now transfer to a tightfisted one just to thrilled with my parents; I forgo whatever I want this semester just to make my parents very blissful this semester. Enough of this, June12, is the opening SY, this is a dim-witted decision, I can’t believe it! To start our class, my first subject, L3A2Y(english), hahaha then, S1A1Y(phil. history), P3A1Y(swimming) and our last subject is H12AY(primary health care) up to 7pm, wow, how maddening is that, and speaking of maddening, my classmates put me in a state of affairs and I don’t know how I said yes, and that, being the treasurer, oh men, I hate that position, because, there is math! And I hate it, way the go Jm, to start your semester with a bang!


July 2007 (my first RLE = my worst day, oh great)
Well, I can say this month is something I don’t like to remember, but for the sake of finishing my story, I will share to you as well, besides pass is pass, oh well, it all starts when RLE is already in the schedule that we need to get up as early as 5am just to fix yourself and be the early bird on or before 7am of else, face the consequences. As if that I’m almost late, I’m like a jaguar running as the NB corridor as I reached 5th floor. God is so nice, very nice. As of that, we passed our novel-like assignment and you must know them by heart. Then we start with a pre-test then its over, and now they introduced themselves and then, they’ve also announced the set of groupings, and I’m belong to J23, which they say, powerhouse, really?!, and I hate to say this, but they to put me in a state of affair to be their leader, oh my god, my head is swelling! So we have our first return demonstration after that, they call our names one by one like, ms recto, well ms recto which she said that she loves me yet don’t want to be unfair with her affair, so I saw them, walking by, holding hands, and after that, I called her by her name and she look back, with a faux smile, that is so nice and then she text to me to say sorry, yet, bitterness is come arise so I can’t stop fighting against her until its war


August 2007 (Au revoir, Dad)
There is nothing new about this month but not along that my loving dad is now leaving the country, which is so sad to say ladies and gentlemen. That wass Tuesday before I go back to school to have my swimming classes, any way, I just said to my dad, be happy even though he is leaving again, I know the feeling of leaving your family just to work for them.and then another member of our family left the building


September 2007 (disease, get off of me. I got the respect as well)
This month is my sickness month. Oh men, if you only know, my mom is really getting into her nerves because of all the troubles that I have in this month, I have a cough and cold for almost a month, and getting worse like having a bronchitis after a cold blooded swimming class and the place is getting darker, I buy my dinner outside of our dorm then eat, then buy my medicine as my right calf is bothering me, and then I went back to get some sleep, then take a sleep on the floor because it is very hot at my corner that almost hit by a scorching sun then my dorm mates didn’t check what the heck is happening to me, what a weasel! So nevermind of them, so I still attend my classes during that time, and my classmates realized at I’m not in the mood of fooling around, I hate to say this but I slept on my major subject, I hate doing that, that is not my asset, I can’t believe I’ve done that. I’ve insult the doctor whose discussing in front, I’m sorry, and I have no choice as well but to go back to my dorm and have a good rest and I woke up to take the H3A1Y exam and I don’t like to have a special exam, with no hesitation and not even scanning my notes, I take the exam and a long quiz at M2A2Y, I hate math! Then I ask my friend if i can sleep at their place, well he accepted it because we have an assignment that we need to pass at RLE day so we teamed up as well, as for me with a 39C fever, I continued it, then I finished ahead of time, eat a bowl of ramen, sleep as early as I can, and thank god I feel better, I love GOD! Then ask my mom to transfer as soon as possible because my place is not that fit for my body, I know I promise to them that I will stay the whole semester but I broke it so we rush ourselves and picked up my things and transfer already. Then in this month, is the demonstration of the Physical assessment, the 1st part is the head and neck and the 2nd part is the abdomen. honestly, 1st part is an abortive result because I didn’t take for granted because it’s so hard but on the 2nd part, I got the last laugh, I got the respect of my madrasta (j23 know who is madrasta), and then, I’m at the top of the food chain. Oh men, my head is getting big! And the biggest story for this month is the rumors of having a Tumor! The reason of saying that is because I’m always have a headache which really bugging me, so me and my mom went to the neurologist to check if there are any signs, he is so great, he just check it by palpating my head and he have already an explanation; its an off and on migraine. Oh men, i thought I will be in a CT scan, I’m happy for that


October 2007 (we really don’t have a happy ending but we succeed)
Well this month, this will show what is a06a12 is made of, as we laid all the sheets of manila paper on the floor, hiding our laptops where we can type and plug our charger, honestly, it’s against feu policy but we need it badly so we did it. Then with those zero sleep resistance just to make and edit those output and I almost have a bankrupt moment just for my group, and all those hard work just to defend our presentation, but really, I love it! The reason I love it is because that all of us are working as a one unit. They really make a stand that they really deserve to be one of the future nurses someday, and as we finally end our presentation, we celebrate with tears of joy, and all that hard work was paid off. As for that, I almost forgot that it is time for the departmental exam and of course we need to concentrate as well, after all the frustration, we had a little adventure at EK, together with some classmates, just to say that, we need some enjoyment just to forget all those back breaking moments and we really have some fun and we will not forget all those moments with a06a12. T semester is over with high hopes as we continue our dreams to be future nurses.


November 2007 (the rebirth of JM at YFC-FEU and hello a06a13)
This month, is a new road, and new chapter of my life and of course, new classmates again. And for that, me and my classmates will do our best bur before we made this semester, we had a problem with one of my friends as for that, he help all together just to enrolled him this semester, in this moment, we are all concerned with him as the brain of our group, we are proud to know him. Enough of this drama, let’s get happy. Speaking of being happy, thank god that he gave me a chance to show my love to him. And now I’m back to my roots in the name of god, and I’m back to YFC, I’m not mortified to say I LOVE YOU ALL FOR WELCOMING ME, snob snob, and now before I make my 2nd semester a adventurous manifestation, I want to say that, now I’m thanking a06a13 for making me the VP of the class and the community leader. I promise to behave and promise me as well to behave and do what ever the chain of commands said so. Let’s do this guys, YFCpiyu and a06a13


December 2007 (save the best for last)
Yes the best month ever! All my wackiest moments and the saddest moments of my life is one package here this month, as I start, of course, I will never forget December 9, 2007, 2 events of course, first is the nursing aptitude exam. I want to thank mommy emma, for introducing regina rosarii to us after the review, and the reminder stone, it is very useful, and I bring it during the examination, it is a miracle as it is that I’ve answer all the questions and I can feel it that I’ve will passed the exam. And after the exam, it is my birthday, I know my family, are on a trip to our province, as for me, I’m in manila, celebrating with my YFC family, I’m feel so shy that I don’t treat you yet you make my day, astonishing, just have a picnic is a means of it, a very jovial household specially tatay lee comes in the cavalry, our day is full already that we can eat a single word of his jokes, just keep of laughing and he will make your day as bright as the glowing star above. And for that I end my day with a mass at San Sebastian church. As the days continue, we went now to our community last December 8 as our exposure to the community and then we finish the prelims by taking the examination week and for the finally, the main event, the timeout camp, it is my first camp after 6yrs drought in service at YFC. It was so much fun, the place is so elegant, at for that, I have a new partner, let’s call her locomotion, you know her YFC-FEU. And we have a short conversation about serving god, she is 2 yrs older than me, elder as it is guys. And that im now with my family, even though we’re just 4 in the house, we are still happy as this 2007 the best and the worst year that we encounter

-december 27, 2007, 2:47pm, at my room

PS. finally, im done typing while doing those HH chores here, it's back-breaking, oh my back hurts, REST TIME GUYS

here is my IDOL, Paolo Coelho

'Paulo Coelho is not only one of the most widely read, but also one of the most influential authors writing today.'The jury of the 2001 'BAMBI Awards', on presenting him with Germany's most prestigious prize.
The Brazilian author PAULO COELHO was born in 1947 in the city of Rio de Janeiro. Before dedicating his life completely to literature, he worked as theatre director and actor, lyricist and journalist.
Coelho wrote song lyrics for many famous performers in Brazilian music, such as Elis Regina and Rita Lee. Yet his most well known work has been done with Raul Seixas. Together they wrote such successes as Eu nasci há dez mil anos atrás (I was born ten thousand years ago), Gita and Al Capone, amongst other 60 songs.
His fascination with the spiritual quest dates back to his hippie days, when he travelled the world learning about secret societies, oriental religions, etc.
In 1982 Coelho published his first book, Hell Archives, which failed to make any kind of impact. In 1985 he contributed to the Practical Manual of Vampirism, although he later tried to take it off the shelves, since he considered it “of bad quality”. In 1986, PAULO COELHO did the
pilgrimage to Saint James of Compostella, an experience later to be documented in his book The Pilgrimage.
In the following year, COELHO published The Alchemist. Slow initial sales convinced his first publisher to drop the novel, but it went on to become one of the best selling Brazilian books of all time.
Other titles include Brida (1990), The Valkyries (1992), By the river Piedra I sat Down and Wept (1994), the collection of his best columns published in the Brazilian newspaper Folha de São Paulo entitle Maktub (1994), the compilation of texts Phrases (1995), The Fifth Mountain (1996), Manual of a Warrior of Light (1997), Veronika decides to die (1998), The Devil and Miss Prym (2000), the compilation of traditional tales in Stories for parents, children and grandchildren (2001), Eleven Minutes (2003), The Zahir (2005)
He also adapted The Gift (Henry Drummond) and Love letters of a prophet (Kalil Gibran).
To date, Coelho has sold a total of 100 million copies and, according to the magazine Publishing Trends; he was the most sold author in the world in 2003 with his book Eleven Minutes – even though at the time it hadn’t been released in the United States, Japan or 10 other countries!
Also according to Publishing Trends, The Alchemist was to be found in the 6th place of world sales in 2003. Eleven Minutes topped all lists in the world, except for England, where it was in second place. The Zahir, published in 2005, was in third place of bestsellers according to Publishing Trends, after Dan Brown’s The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons.
The Alchemist was one of the most important literary phenomena of the 20th century. It reaches the first place in bestselling lists in 18 countries, and so far has sold 30 million copies.
The book has been praised by different personalities ranging from the Nobel Prize Kenzaburo Oe to the singer Madonna, who considers it one of her favourite books. It has equally inspired many projects – such as a musical in Japan, theatre plays in France, Belgium, USA, Turkey, Italy, Switzerland. It is also the theme of two symphonies (Italy and USA) and had its text illustrated by the famous French artist Moebius (author of the sceneries for he Fifth Element and Alien).
His work has been translated in 66 languages and edited in more than 150 countries.

During the months of March, April, May and June, Paulo Coelho travelled to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his pilgrimage to Saint James of Compostella in 1986. He also held surprise book signings - announced one day in advance - in some cities along the way, to have a chance to meet his readers. In ninety days of pilgrimage the author travelled around the globe and took the famous Transiberrian train that took him to Vladivostok. During this experience Paulo Coelho launched his blog
Walking the Path - The Pilgrimage in order to share with his readers his impressions.
In 2006, PAULO COELHO launched a compilation of tales, opinions and ideas called Be Like a Flowing River, based on his weekly columns. This book will be launched in most countries only in 2008, since his new book The Witch of Portobello, will have a worldwide release in 2007.

my journey with god starts here

It all starts here,
at that cross, while staring at it
and I ask God..
"god, do I have to do this just to say, I Love You?"

I started to joined The Knights of the Altar At Malolos, Bulacan
I just feel the presence wearing a sotana while handling a turfier
I feel like caspar, one of the 3 kings, giving the gift to jesus christ,
I feel so great! but then, I feel incomplete again, then I joined the choir in my alma mater and our conductress called me and she wanted to tell me that I've past the audition, I can't believe it that I can sing?!, weird ei?!
I have a multi-job when both services I really wanted to maintain.
but one time, one of the priest in our school gave me a letter which is said.
" CFC Youth For Christ" I have no idea what is that, I just signed the damned waiver and then, joined the youth camp, honestly, the reason i joined is because it's an overnight so I joined just to have an experience to be an independent man.
For almost 3 days of conquering evil, i just realize that, I don't need to joined all kinds of chrstian services like choir, knights.....etc., all i have to do is to feel his presence.
with all that experience, starts at high school based, being the president of YFC high school based, part of the community based here at bulacan, all those conference that i've attended, and have a one time experience to joined the ILC, i can say that, I'M PROUD TO BE A YFC!, ahooahoo

I hope my 6 yrs of serving YFC, will continue and lord god....
" I WILL PREPARE A WAY FOR YOU"
