friday morning

friday morning is especially worse for me because it reminds me that it's going to be Saturday the following day. Every Saturday is just a nightmare coming to life. I will have to steam school for at least eight hours and be ready for reservations and exams that are being handed by sometimes, not so friendly professors. so today I'm trying to finish every thing that I have in my plate, I have my work and i need to expedite the process, so that I can still find time to study my lesson for this afternoon's taxation class, and for tomorrow's deadly subjects.

and just to give you a little bit of an update with regard to the weather, it's generally sunny here in my place but there was a forecast last night that we will be having some tropical depression comes tomorrow or sometime next week. so I guess, I would just like to wish everyone driving weekend, and just be ready for the next week's storm.

once again I am not typing this things down, Siri Does this for me so if there is, in a way, something that is quite unsightly in 

terms of grammar please forgive me I just don't have the time to edit them all out. All i wanted to do is just talk and let the computer Do the writing for me.

hello, I am back!

wow, it's been a while since I last checked this blog and I will have to admit that they really miss this blog site so much. right now because I'm too lazy I'm just dictating to my iPad the things that i write here.  it's pretty convenient because I don't have to do anything and just have to talk and the software does the writing for me, so great! 

today I am there's really nothing much that I would like to talk about. However, I am very much interested to let you know that I'm back with me usual schedule, and that next week I will have my prelims exam. so when everyone else is super Busy studying their lessons I'm here still working and trying to find time to update my blog, and i would really like to thank Siri and Apple for making my life very much easier.

I never really thought that writing blogs will be this easy.  i'm trying to juggle a whole lot of things I have work I have classes every afternoon and I also have made parenting tasks because of my nephew, but I am very much grateful that I'm still able to remain on top of the situation despite the busy schedule and everything else.

I have so many plans in mind, I think I will need to go back to my hometown where I will be revising my Internet café business, and then but the play on office there and try to hire as many people as I can so that I can help them out. Also I am thinking of looking for a better place where I can keep all the things that I hoarded over the months that I've stayed here safely.

so today when I'm just trying to tell you that I am back and I know that I can update my blog as often asI would want to because it now it's easier and it's more user-friendly. But since I'm looking forward to a very difficult exam in the coming weeks I might not I might not be able to update the blog site for a while but I promise to get back to you.

sit back and relax ladies and gentlemen I will rest my case but I will be back with a vengeance!

I'm in Law School ( So, what?)

It took me a long while to reopen my blog. As far as I can remember, the most recent post was made last January of this year and I have nobody else to blame, but me. I have been too busy with just about everything that I eventually forgot that I keep a blog. While it's not really mandatory that I  keep it updated, not being able to write something (yes, even frivolities) defeats the purpose of maintaining a blog in the first place.  So here I am again.

I'm finally in Law School now after years of contemplating on whether I should proceed or not. The choice was not made drastically as it deprived me of sleep for weeks. Since I left school after graduation in 2009, my life has been a constant up and down. That could have been the reason why it took me a while to really decide. I landed a good paying job and got sick because of the work schedule so I took freelance works online and eventually saved enough to let me start my own internet cafe business. Nothing was easy, especially because there were targets to meet and competitions (most of the time unhealthy) to put up with, but everything has eventually paid off. Now my life as a student is much easier in Law than what it was when I was still in college. The ROI of my business, although not big, is what's keeping me afloat. Most of the time, it affords me of my caprices. 

Law school has its own perks, but it definitely has its own droops, too. It feels good to be praised for being in Law school, but the pressure and expectations can put that sparkle on the sideline. For one, there are lawyer professors you need to be in good terms with. Then, there are tons of reading materials to devour and lengthy Supreme Court cases to digest. I thought it will deprive you of your love life, until I was proven wrong by a person named French who has been with me since the school year commenced. I'm sure that the early days of Law school could have been more difficult without her. So, thank God!

The first few nights of being in Law have been hellish. You need to force shove learning down your throat and that you need to choose between forcing yourself to learn it or die. But the days that followed are quite different. Your teacher becomes friendlier and you sporadically recite in class because they do all the talking. (Sigh of relief here!) 

It's not even midterm yet and I feel exhausted already. I can hardly find the right motivation to read all the shit books (not even my unsightly prelim scores). We'll have our midterm exams the week after next, and I can't afford to be lazy. French has been my good source of inspiration and sanity for a few months now, but I know that if I really want to do good this time the drive has to come from me. 

So I'll pause for now to get some sleep because I MIGHT study Constitutional Law tonight. 

Saying Goodbye to Creative Writing

Writing is a worthwhile activity. It allows you to put across yourself with just the eloquence of your pen. It is, in itself, an expression of one’s own personality. When you read a piece of work, you have a sneak peek of the kind of character the writer has. His thoughts are shown in his words, with utter reverence to the rules of grammar and rhetoric. These rules are stiff, especially for creative writers who have always been unmindful of their seeming flaws because what they are after is self-expression.

 However, it is a different story when you are writing for a living. It compels you to tear down your creative side and shove the new approach down your throat. It is a painful process, especially when you are not accustomed to it. But you don’t have much choice. You have to let go of your own self and embrace the norm.

That is business. And that is what every writer must understand. When you write for someone, you have to give up a portion of yourself. You are no longer writing for the sake of writing. You do that for a living, and your outputs now have an even bigger role aside from mere entertainment or self-expression. They are now tools to educate and to make money.

Your failure to meet what is required is detrimental to business, so you have to double your efforts. Yes, the transformation doesn’t happen overnight. For some it would take days, even months to fully adapt to the new style and approach. But that shouldn’t be a problem.

When you are passionate about something, you keep on challenging and improving yourself no matter what. You just take in everything; corrections and criticisms that are meant to make you an effective writer. Even if it takes a while, you have to keep a positive spirit and believe that sooner or later, when you have mastered the trick, you’ll be over and above your old self. That is because you don’t compete with anybody, you compete against yourself. So there will always be a part of you winning, and a part losing.

Creative writing is precious, but when important circumstances call for its demise, you won’t have much choice. 

Rush Post

My apologies if I'm unable to update you with what's happening to me right now. I just can't the right time to do so and whenever I do, either I'm dead-tired or asleep. I have a lot of works and they eat up all of my sane and waking times. But  I don't complain, in facts I'm really glad that my time is put to good use now. So please don't expect me to be around in your domain typing some ridiculous stuff. But I'll check you out every now and then.

Dear Shem

Shem,

The last thing I want to do is hurt you. I love you so much that I'm willing to give you everything. I'm sorry that you have to go through all these. You're young but you seem to have the entire world on your shoulders and some things that are better locked away from you congesting your head right now. Is that the reason why you lack interest for school or your sudden change in attitude? You're not like that before. You are loving , caring, respectful and bright little kid. But all these things changed you.And every time I think about you I cry. You mean the whole world to me that whenever I scold you, I feel the pain ten folds. But I have to, if I don't who else will? I don't want you to grow up lost and unguided. So no matter how much you'll hate me for being the bad guy, I will always stand right here, watching over you. I'm doing that at my expense because we're family.And because I love you so much. I wasn't happy when I hit you today. Do you think I enjoy seeing you crying?Did you ever believe that I will find enjoyment in your pains? NO. I did that because you have to learn.  I want you to go above all these, unaffected. I want you to become who you are and not to be somebody else driven by hatred. I just want you to know that I love you so much. And if only I can take all these pains and situations away from you. I would but since I can't, I'll just stick with you along the way even if that would entail you hating me.

Love,

Tito Rommel

Unlimited Internet Musing

I have been silent for a week because no matter how much I want to update my blog, I couldn't just find the time to do so. And whenever I do, my laziness comes in really handy. But today I won't let this opportunity slip off again especially that this day marks the beginning of my forever unlimited internet. Yes, forever, for only 600 pesos initial payment. How is that possible, you might ask. Well, there are things that tech-savvy individuals know that are locked away from normal guys like us. Thankfully, I have a friend who helped me save a lot by letting me avail of this EXCLUSIVE service. With this new development, I can certainly avoid the bland days without internet as this is ,once again, forever unlimited. So I can download movies without worries and stream all I want off work. My only issue now would be my laptop which is not very impressive. As the Pavilion my sister promised me has some motherboard issue, I'm considering a RAM upgrade for my notebook just so the speed will be augmented. Getting a new motherboard for HP is as expensive as getting a new unit so I'm brushing off the idea at present and relish at the fact that my sister is once again scouting for a new unit for me. She considers getting me a Dell as her new lappy bears the same brand. So how's that for a consolation? But that will be eons from now as her scheduled vacation in the country is set to next year or so. How I wish she can just go home immediately so she can spend some time with us and with her kid most especially. But Canada is an ocean apart and the travel expenses will definitely drain your piggy bank. So sacrifices have to be made. What's important for me now is that she takes happiness with the things, both tangible and intangible, that she has as of the moment and keep a yard of patience and faith in God for the things that she doesn't have control over.These things that are independent of human interventions must be relinquished to God for His disposal. And before I get mushy in this post, I'll move out and explore the worldwideweb for free until eternity.
