What can I say about myself. Not like anyone is really gonna read this. Well, I would like to think of myself as a good guy although I
can lose my temper quite easily, so watch out a bit. Nothing personal hehe. I love soccer, that's all I can think about right now. I LOVE
SOCCER! What more can I say? Haha!
"And here we are. In between where we were and where we want to go. We will enter a world that is filled with trials, a world that will test the kind of person that we are." This is something that I took out of a speech I gave during our graduation. It was the grad speech actually. These words mean alot to me, and it is not because I thought them up or because I said it. It because that these words mean something. High school is very different from college, it is even farther away from who real life really is. College is a big step, for anyone, anywhere. And yet here I am, in between all the memories and joys of my high school and dreading the strangness, the alien world of college.
Trials? Yes, trials. The real world holds many dangers, many temptations. Temptations, it is always so much easier to give into them, it is always easier to give into peer pressure. Conforming to the ideals of the world is easier. The world will view you as cool or 'astig' for doing what it wants you to do. The world wants you to have pre-marital sex. The world wants you to do drugs. The world wants you to steal, cus and hate. The world wants you to do all of this and its easier to do them. In the end it is easier to conform to the world and be cool then to stay true to yourself only to be looked upon as a nerd.
To us them the choice is, to be cool or to be looked upon as a nerd. What a choice yet only we are the ones who can make it. What am I? Only time will tell what I will end up being.
Just a thought really. Was cleaning my room earlier(which is a happening as rare as a solar eclipse mind you) and stumbled upon my speech in a folder along with some other papers.
My little cousin went to the hospital today *gulp*. Dog bit her round the head and she had several bad puntures. I have always hated that dog. He isnt sweet and lovable like my two Labs(oh God I love them XD) but hyper and wild. His name is Ringo Star, and for the longest time, I had no idea who Ringo was. Shows how much I really know huh. XD She is alright now but is on some medications to be sure she doesnt get an infection etc etc etc....
Brother and I are currently addicted to some world war II first person shooters that we borrowed from a good friend, Issac Siojo. The Siojo's are one of two families that us(the Riskins) are still close to. They are the survivors of a large group of friends we had before when we lived here in QC and when of course when mom was still alive.
A very cool Tito of mine is back visiting from the U.S. Gerrard Dacudao. We used to call him Tito Pogi. Back when I was fat(I was really really fat) he hid the cookies from me and I only got some if I promised to call him Tito Pogi every single time I saw him. Can you imagine, a lifetime of calling him that in exchange for one single chocolate cookie? Now who would do that? ...... Okay, Im guilty. I did it. Haha, of course it didnt last forever. It kinda phased out, but it did last pretty long. Shows what happens when you hold eating about all.
Which leads me to something else. Sometimes I get so bored that the most intresting thing I can do in the house is eat. Yes, eating for fun. This is like super bad for me and yet I have been doing it for quite sometime. I feel so...plump although I do not look it yet, I merely feel it. This is a bad habit that I will break. I will only eat during meal times, starting today. Must say that I have done a very good job so far. XD According to a teacher of mine, you need at least something like 21 days to break habit. 1 down, 20 more to go. Wish me luck.
I will allow myself some treats here and there. For example, the chocolate that currently is occupying my mouth. I have really bad self control sometimes, when it comes to my body. Examples, I have a hard time waking up early, or exercising. But I have good self control when it comes to my emotions or my school work. Strange, possessing the qualities in one field yet lacking the same qualities in another slightly different one. Really strange.....
Anyways, I have been having a hard time posting simply because my Dell laptop is like so dead already. Cant use it at all. Using my Aunt's laptop now so thats why I am able to post. Nothing much to do on the computer now a days. There are not even that many people going online to chat with on YM. Bummer really.
Anyways, I think that is enough for now. Till the next time I can steal my Aunt's laptop to use it to make a post then. XD
