Arky! look ahead...

"take a chance because you never know how absolutely perfect something could turn out to be..yeah! one goal: to become a CPA =b so, don't ever think of giving up.." - chummy

i remember the time when hearty (Rejean) and i were talking on the phone about our plans for the coming semester, she suddenly said "teka.. seryoso ka na ba?".. Rejean have been calling me "ARKY", guess why? i've been having doubts and having thoughts to transfer to the College of Architecture.

i replied, "nandito na ako! ano pa magagawa ko?! eh di subukan malay mo di ba?"

having escaped the threat of being debarred (kicked out of the college), i managed to grab another chance to spend a year in the college of accountancy.. a chance that others failed to have. I thought that others deserve to be in my place, they really wanted to be a CPA even if it takes them to study very harsh.. while being in a safe position, i managed to be safe even in putting just merely enough effort.

Am i just lucky enough to survive? is it a sign that i must might as well continue what i have started? well, AMV-CoA gave me a chance.. an opportunity to take things seriously.

in the coming semester, i'll be expected to work again with the Accountancy Student Council.. and i couldn't let them down by transferring to another college. i am looking forward also with working with them.. being in the ASC webteam is a resort of being desperate to express my passion for arts, but it resulted in having good companions, opportunities and experiences..

as i face another semester.. i'll finish what i have started. to conquer the halls of the AMV-CoA, and in the mere future.. conquer the CPA Licensure Exams..

i need perseverance and determination..

Tonight

i remember what kel told once, someting like.. "pagtanda natin.. maalala natin ang kantang lagi nating kinakanta noon. (tonight)"

it also reminds us of the SOUP+RICE! (surprise) of the girls to us, boys.. for a period of two hours listening to their presentation and eating together in a symbolic memorable lunch, all we have to listen is the song "tonight".. waw!

i even remember the times that we are singing together while walking or hanging out.. we even played the song at Rommel's and Trek's Place, at the Underground (DOTA place), in the classroom and in the hallway..

being with them eases all my problems, we even maximized our time to be with each other.. going home late and arriving at school very early (though late ako minsan).. Just for a year, we had memorable experiences and ultimate friendship... thanks for that!

The meaning of the song is meant for us, now that some of us are about to part ways and we are facing a big challenge of the group.. we just hope that everyone would be fine amidst the different challenges that we all face. may the friendship withstand the test of time..

as the girl-kada says "Friendship lasts a lifetime!"

-- to the whole group!

Tonight (by FM Static)

I remember the times we spent together
All those drives, we had a million questions
All about our lives and when we got to New York everything felt right
I wish you were here with me, Tonight

I remember the days we spent together,
were not enough, it used to feel like dreaming
Except we always woke up,
Never thought not having you here now would hurt so much

Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss you, I can just look up
And know the stars are Holding you, holding you, holding you Tonight

I remember the time you told me, about when you were eight
And all those things you said that night that just couldn't wait
I remember the car you were last seen in and the games we would play
All the times we spilled our coffees and stayed out way too late

I remember the time you sat and told me
About your Jesus, and how not to look back
Even if no one believes us when it hurts so bad, sometimes not having you here

I sing, "Tonight I've fallen and I can't get up
I need your loving hands to come and pick me up
And every night I miss you I can just look up
And know the stars are Holding you, holding you, holding you Tonight"
