Love And Hate Relationship

It was one of those mornings when it takes a lot of self control not to wring someone's neck. I wanted to fill this post with morning rants but I have a better plan.

Remember the saying "The world gives you what you give to the world?" I thought that if I write all about the things that happened this morning that I hate, the world will echo this hate to me. Well, I don't know about you but I don't want more hate in this world. I want love. I want more love.

So, instead of writing:
-I hate (negative thing no. 1)
I will write:
- I love (opposite of negative thing no.1)

Sounds easy right?

Here's my list:
-I love strangers who think of others when riding a jeepney. I love the way they sit properly so that you can be comfortable too.
-I love jeepney drivers who leave the terminal to let other drivers have their share of passengers.
-I love men who use their hands to help old ladies get on the jeepney and not pretend to accidentally touch ladies next to them.
-I love proper and orderly jeepney terminals.
-I love smokers who do not smoke while walking so the person walking behind him will not have smoke all over the face.
-I love a sincere "Good morning."
-I love arriving earlier than expected.

Whew! That felt a lot better. From now on, instead of ranting I will continue with this love and hate relationship.

Happy Friday!

I will study because...

i will study because....

• i don't want to end up a beggar
• i want to learn more!
• conquering the academe is a challenge i just can't resist!
• i actually get paid to do it
• the taxes of the Filipino people pay for my education
• learning new things is as exciting as traveling to new places!
• people in the academe are smart and from that pool of smart people are smart guys (ok,this is not always true though)
• if you look very hard amidst those formulas and lengthy proofs are lessons in life :)
• i hate flunking
• there a more than a million children (essentially brighter than me) who can't go to school and the aren't-you-guilty plea works here
• being a student gives me access to the library, to all the books! yey!
• being a student entitles me with 20% discount on transport fare and meals
• i get to enjoy trips paid for by my mom :)
• i get to go to overnight out-of-town trips with permission and sometimes even persuasion from my mom!
• i want to make this world a better place :D
• i believe that coming into this world our minds are like blank pages of a notebook. We live through life writing about all the things we have learned. It would be very embarrassing to give back a blank notebook to God.
• though not all things are thought inside the classroom, most of them are.
• i don't want to disappoint my parents
• it seems such a natural thing to do! haha
• being in school is the fastest and most efficient way to meet and make new friends

there are actually a million reasons. i'll try to put them here (a million? WTF!) so if you're lazing around, not wanting to study perhaps you can read this list or you can make your own! :D it's a fun way to motivate yourself to study (well, it worked for me :)so it might as well work for you *wink)
