10 Random Things I Have In Mind Right Now

Well, my shift is over for this day. And I think sleeping is not my plan as of this moment. Actually, I was browsing my facebook while I realized something. I want to do things. Honestly, I don't even know if those things are possible...

There are 10 random things in my mind right now...

1. I want to be a model. I know... It's kinda humorous. Popularity... Money... and ofcourse, every dress I might want to wear...I know, I may not have that perfect body and face to show off, but yeah, a little confi factor and discipline would at least make that daydream into reality. So thumbs up to that! :)

2. I want to learn how to play piano and guitar. Actually, I have my guitar. When I was 18, I asked my Inay to buy 1 for me as a gift. Laugh at it, but 'til now, I don't still know how to play it. And piano, YES, definitely, it would be a great achievement if I might have the chance to play it. I don't know... Everytime I see a girl playing piano, I am amazed... If only I have the chance to learn...

3. I want to have my own fine dining restaurant. Absolutely YES. I don't know anything about business management,and I just know a little about cooking--(pastas, etc.). I don't have enough money to invest on it...but once I've given the chance to have one, I would definitely make something out of it. Really SOMETHING. It maybe hundred percent impossible as of now, but who knows? MAYBE TOMORROW. :)

4. I want to have my own DANCE STUDIO. It has been my passion to dance. You may not know that I know how to...am I right? Well, actually it just started wayback highschool. I just tried to audition for extra curricular just to skip attending P.E. classes. And HURRAY for me, it's an approve for the school's dance instructor. After that, I learned more about dancing. I even experienced to dance on other schools like La Salle, La Co.,etc. And yes, I told myself... I'm loving it. Though, the past years of college seems so busy that I almost forgot how to. And now, ewan ko lang kung magkakacareer pa ko sa pagsayaw. Malay ko...

5. I want to travel tourist places here in the Philippines. Ofcourse, before I explore the world, Pilipinas muna. Actually, I have lists of places I want to go to. First in my list is Amanpulo, they said it's so expensive to go there. I wonder, siguro talagang maganda don, noh? :) Well,next is Palawan. I want to take pictures of those places na sa magazine ko lang at sa google ko lang nakikita. Scroll down to my list, you'll find CEBU, BOHOL, experience festival @ BACOLOD, BANAUE, SORSOGON, ANTIQUE,SOUTH COTABATO, PANGASINAN...and more. Dami noh?

6. I want to travel the WORLD. I have HOPES. Bakit hindi? I know my mom would be glad if she would know this. I know, she had dreams for me. Sayang nga lang at wala na siya. Taga-cheer ko sana siya kung nagkataon... AnyHOW, first in my list--ASIA. Tapos, AFRICA. TAPOS, EUROPE. Impossible as it may seem, pero all prayers are answered...in any way. Right?

7. I want to give SMILES to HOMELESS children. I am a human who enjoys material things. I buy what I want not thinking if there's enough left for tomorrow. You might call me gastador but there's one thing I'm proud about myself--I may not be rich but I never doubt to share. When I turned 19, I promised myself that I will never turn 20 without doing anything. I told myself that once that I have the chance or enough money, I would but goods and kindly distribute to some beggars. I did it. 'Twas when my father gave me money(a week after my birthday). I went to BASILICA to give those plastics of noodles and canned goods. It feels so good to put smiles on people specially to those you don't even know. And their simple way of saying SALAMAT is a heart warming payback for me. Natawa ako dun sa matanda na binigyan ko, di ko makakalimutan yun. Sabi nya, "Salamat iha...kahit matagal pa ang eleksyon..." Di na ko umimik. Ngumiti na lang ako...

8. I want to learn different LANGUAGES. Hmmm. Realmente, sé un pequeño de español... y quiero aprender más... Et juste un peu de français... Un po' di italiano... And alot of English...haha. Other than that every f-lang that i know was to just basics.

9. I want to be married at the age of 27. Exactly! At the age of 27, when things are into its proper places. I don't want to see myself at this age-married, having kids, and unsettled. Correct, I have my job now but my salary isn't enough to satisfy a family. If you'll ask me if it satisfy mine, i doubt for a clear answer. I just need to strive harder for greater opportunities.

10. I want to be a writer. I may not know every rules in writing, there might be alot of... I might have errors but one thing is for sure... What I write comes not from my mind, It's from my heart.

BOTTOMLINE:
Nothing. :) I just want to share these things before it slip off my mind.

HAVE a great cup of coffee everyone. Good Morning Philippines!

A Heartfelt Experience

This is one of the heart warming experiences I have in my LIFE... I was once taught that courtesy and respect are one of those highlights of EDUCATION. I certainly agree that not all of us has been nourished greatly in school but ofcourse we have our homes as our first place of learning.

So why still lack of respect and courteousness to the oldies?

So let me tell you my experience to let you feel what I've felt...

I was on my way home and I simply took an ordinary fare bus to reduce my transpo fee. I sat on the right side of the bus where the window was half opened. On my left side was an old man sitting comfortably while having his legs crossed streched forward. He was wearing glasses. And his hands and his voice were both shaking.

Then suddenly came a kinda 35-year-old conductor. He asked the old man his destination and immediately gave him a ticket. As I look at the old man, he is puzzled of the amount punched at the ticket.

"Utoy, senior...", he said with a trembling voice, pointing the ticket to him.

Then, I felt bad towards the reply of that sarcastic conductor. He said in a high tone voice,

"Tssk... Eh hindi naman kayo nagsasabing senior. Kung kailan nabutasan na ang ticket saka kayo magsasabi. Simpleng pag-imik lang eh, hindi pa magawa."

I felt pity. He was looking at his ticket together with the 20 pesos and coins he have in his hands. He was puzzled on how to pay the fare with his unsufficient money.
After I had paid my fare, I didn't keep my purse back in my bag 'cause I was thinking that the old man might ask for an addition to complete his fare. And YES, I am willing to give.

The conductor then came back to get his fare,

"Sa susunod ho, iimik kayo, para SENIOR lang ang sasabihin e...",he said harshly taking the uncomplete payment.

I really don't get it. Is there really a need for the old man to tell the conductor that he is a senior? It's absurd, right? It is obvious. God gave us eyes to see. Because certainly, there are things that we don't have to explain because it is seen barely by our EYES. And in this experience, it's proven.

I wonder why that conductor treated an old man like that. Oldies need to be respected because at their age, even they lack of hearing and seeing, they are more sensitive. Because they use their hearts instead of senses.

And having his situation, I came into a thinking. How if we change the situation? How if the old man is someone popular? Or to exagge, a celebrity? Would he still treat that old man that way? I guess not.

I shared this story to let you know and feel the way I did. Respect is the most important thing you could ever give to the oldies. Because they might not be educated that much but by experience, they have more than what we know.

And because I grew up with my grandparents, I so dedicate this post for you.

"Inay and Tatay, thank you for making me feel loved and cared. I love you both!"

BOTTOMLINE:

PAY RESPECT to oldies. Have in mind that time will come that we will be just looking at the mirror reflecting like them. Love them like your own.

Goodnight everyone.

"Is the glass half empty or half full?"

~the pessimistic approach would be to pick half empty, while the optimistic approach would choose half full.

Pessimism, from the Latin pessimus (worst), is a state of mind in which one perceives life negatively. Value judgments may vary dramatically between individuals, even when judgments of fact are undisputed. The most common example of this phenomenon is the "Is the glass half empty or half full?" situation. The degree in which situations like these are evaluated as something good or something bad can be described in terms of one's optimism or pessimism respectively. Throughout history, the pessimistic disposition has had effects on all major areas of thinking[1].

Philosophical pessimism is the similar but not identical idea that life has a negative value, or that this world is as bad as it could possibly be. It has also been noted by many philosophers that pessimism is not a disposition as the term commonly connotes. Instead, it is a cogent philosophy that directly challenges the notion of progress and what may be considered the faith-based claims of optimism.

I might be pessimist right now, but I swear... TOMORROW would be an OPTIMISTIC DAY for me... Note it!
