I'd actually want to be either an ambassador of the Philippines to Japan or a UN representative. I know that both of those are rather high dreams, but it never hurts to dream big, right? I've always wanted to help people, and sometimes I feel useless whenever I'm not able to help anyone.
For now, I'll study and try to be well-rounded so that I would always have something to fall back to in case Plan A wouldn't work. I'll also be more active in organizations like Gawad Kalinga because they have the same ideals as me. More or less, I'm starting small. But I know that in the end, I'll be capable of doing bigger and better things for a larger amount of people.

Copy-pasta entry number 4.
The ups and downs of a marriage.
In a marriage, there will alway be joys and sorrows. They usually run deeper than in the ordinary boyfriend/girlfriend relationships because they have a responsibility with each other and to each other that ordinary boyfriend/girlfriend relationships do not have, maybe because the time spent with each other is different, and people in a married relationship are usually more mature.
When being married, they should have a stable relationship. They should also learn to be committed to each other, because there's bound to be people who either of them could be attracted to. However, if they genuinely care for their spouse, they should not give each other up. They should also learn to work through their problems and not be irritated at every wrongdoing 24/7. I don't think problems could be avoided, but it shouldn't be left hanging in the air just like that.
I don't think I'll get married anytime soon, if ever. I just can't see myself with a single person because I'm not the person to be bound by something... but that may change soon. And if ever I do look for a partner, I'd like him to be considerate of my feelings (because they tend to spiral out of control at the most inopportune moments) and that person MUST possess some sort of intellect (sarcasm, wit, interesting knowledge) because I don't like people who just nod at everything I say.

Everyone has principles. Some may be bent or broken, but I have a few that I cannot compromise, and will not tolerate if violated.
1. Trust. It's not hard to earn my trust, but don't break it either. I may be able to forgive that person, but that person's trust will never be whole again.
2. Know your place. I've always had a pet peeve for people who don't know their place. They tend to be rude, inconsiderate and think that they're the center of the universe. People tend to call me an overly-polite person, but it's just my way of showing respect to a person I've only met. I only start becoming familiar with them when they imply that they don't want to be addressed so formally.
I don't think I can ever break these principles of mine unless it's a life-and-death situation. XD

Hmmm... something I want to change about myself. I guess I tend to be too harsh on myself, and sometimes I get either excessive infrtiority complex (when I feel like I failed myself) or superiority complex (when I'm other people and I feel that I'm "higher" than them because they sound stupid to my ears). I really wish I could be easier on myself and others, because sometimes I feel like I tend to disappoing everyone.
And a random act of kindness... touching someone's life... I did only one this week (at least that I could think of), and it's nothing to be exceptionally proud of either. *hides behind a tree*
We were eating out in McDo (one of the few times that we can actually afford a whole meal there XD), when there were kids outside. My large pack of french fries was still a quarter full, so we piled up our french fries into my container. I went outside and gave it to one of them (after subtly drilling into his brain that he had to share). I know it's not much, but giving them food is better than them inhaling rugby or any other drugs or stealing just to get by for the day. I really wish I could do more, but I don't think I'm capable of doing anything "big" just yet. So for now, I'll stick to the normal everyday stuff.

So... first official blog entry for PERSEF2. (And for the life of me, I don't know why I'm too lazy to update it online and let this file gather cyber cobwebs.)
To be honest, I don't have specific steps to be able to achieve my goals for this term. I just want to get by as smoothly as possible (but of course, I don't think that could happen). Nevertheless, here are my major goals for this term.
- pass everything while managing my extra-curriculars (yes, I am sooo lowering my standards this term because it's the start of major classes. Help. T__T)
- get through the group cosplay thing on December (we've been planning this for months and I am NOT letting a completely-broke drama queen ruin it for the group.)
- try to queeze in some fun in the middle of all the chaos
- avoid petty conflicts that would slow me down in the long run
And that's it for my first PERSEF2 entry. XD
