The Coming of the New Decade

No Gravatar

A new decade is coming. Another ten years of happiness, of sadness, of love, of failure, of success--of life. What will happen ten years from now? We don't know. No one knows. What we all know is that we are entering a new phase of our life. Will this decade be as good as the last? Will this decade be as bad as the last? The past determines our future.  As we are nearing that new decade, i will try to re-collect my year, my 2009. What happened the whole year? What are the most winning moments? The fail ones? I tried to recollect the five most Epic Win and Epic Fail moments of my life--this year.

My Shot (UST Paskuhan 2009)

2009 Epic Fail

NO FUN RUN

Revisit it.

I'm already on my second year now but I still have to attend that run. It stays on my mind. I don't want this thing to stop me from graduating. I feel bad whenever I remember this thing. I don't want this thing to stay on my mind forever. This redefined my future. I have to take another PE 1 FPF class again in the future. And that's Epic Fail!

MATH ELEVEN

I hate Mathematics. I hate Math Eleven more. I took a removals exam for a 4.00 grade in this course twice. I was able to pass it. But I was not able to erase that mark in my transcript. It will stay their forever. A memory. A remembrance. A mark. It will always tell me that I'm never that good. Damn. One of my downs last semester.

SECOND SEMESTER SCHEDULE

My schedule this semester is really epic. I got a major different schedule compared to my friends this semester. I don't have friends to accompany me. You know how it feels, right? No one to walk with, to talk with. Haha. I'm getting so emo here. I eat lunch alone. I walk in the mall alone. I'm not that type of person. I always want someone to be with me. I'm talkative. You can't talk unless you're with somebody, right? CRS, you're an epic fail. You should know that by now. The good thing is, I get home early.

CELLPHONE

If you haven't heard yet, I lost my phone recently. I left it in the Jeep. That was my first ever postpaid phone. I miss it. You don't have to buy load, I enjoy unlimited internet surfing and I can call anyone. There's something different when you're on postpaid than on prepaid. But my old cellphone is still awesome.

PLANNER

Revisit it.

I failed. I was not able to sustain my eagerness to write in my planner until the end of this year. I stopped. Because I'm lazy like that.

YOU

No questions. You know who you are. :)

Dorky Cleve (UP Diliman Lantern Parade 2009)

2009 Epic Win

FIRST IN FIVE YEARS

Revisit it.

After five years, to be precise, after elementary years, I've achieved something academic-related again.  I was looking for this when I was still in High School. But I failed. I graduated with nothing at all. Just a plain-your average-type-of-student type. This is an academic achievement. Don't tell me I'm over-reacting. One of the ups this year! A College Scholar, an academic achievement at last.

FBCP

Revisit it.

Freshman Block Coordination Program. I'm so proud that I got in here in this program. I'm so proud of my FBCP family. I miss them. Everything that you need is already here. The laughs, the love, the friendship, the sadness, the commitment, the failure. Everything.  A family.

BASIC MASS INTEGRATION

I joined a BMI activity for our Political Science 14 class. We went to Bulacan and stayed for two days and a night in an upland farming village there. We live with the people there. It's so nice to be with them. Their simplicity will awe you. Happiness is really that simple. This activity changed me. Changed my life. I joined Anakbayan because of this. Proud to be! Lumalakas, Lumalawak, Lumalaban!

CLEVEARGUELLES dotcom

Revisit it.

I'm giving this part of my life two points for epic win moments. Yes, two points. I'm so happy that someone did offered me mainstream blogging. Thanks Kuya JC, Kuya Tonyo and Kuya Alps.

Don't overdo your 2010 guys. I know this post is not that good. I will try to do another year-ender. Definitely.

Luck will be on us! Definitely.

Welcome 2010!

Leave me some love. Tell me you pass by!

UP won!

No Gravatar

It was a fresh victory for UP Fighting Maroons Men's Basketball Team on their first game on the 71st season of UAAP. UP was expected to win since NU Bulldogs were a no-match to hungry players of UP Fighting Maroons. Most members of the UAAP commitee agreed on that thing as they were interviewed after the game. "Ang UP Centennial nila, naghanda yan, hindi basta basta magpapabaya." Taken from an interview with one of the commitees.

People haven’t forgotten their winless performance last year, and have used this to dismiss this squad as this generation’s version of last generation’s NU. However, the UAAP has a way of turning the tables on unsuspecting individuals.

A simple win is good, a couple of wins is momentous, but getting into the Final Four is nothing but a miracle for the men's basketball team of UP Fighting Maroons. he ya! Mananalo kami! ASA. =)

Too bad ADMU won. T_T Animo LA SALLE!

UP FIGHT!

[matatapang, matatalino, walang takot

kahit kanino, hinding hindi magpapahuli..

ganyan kaming mga taga UP!]
