on personality renewal

this year is another year to celebrate the uniqueness that sets me apart from others. i know that it is not yet too late to type my new years resolution in this blog since it is still january=D. i am writing this to keep myself aware of my strengths, mend my weaknesses, reveal my blind spots and strengthen my personality as a whole.

for 2007, i WILL do all these things:

1. i will strive for balance. since, for the past years, i have always focused my development on my mind. so now, for a change, i will do my best to give more time for my social life, work, family interaction, spirital development, extra curricular activities and other non urgent yet essential tasks.
2. i will regularly recharge myself. i will set at least 20 minutes per day for solitude. i will do my best to check myself more often so that stress may be prevented and to maximize my performance. i will keep up with this blog as i create my own journal at home.
3. i will update myself regularly. i will make it apoint to read two books discussing different topics from my course so that i may become a versatile person without neglecting my majort subjects. and i will do my best to excel in all my fields of study making good use of my God given talents.
4. i will be a man for others. i will practice cura personalis and seeing things with a new and better perspective. i will share myself more for service and do my best to work for a cause and strive for excellence in doing my roles at all times.
5. i will be a soldier of heaven. i will live by the laws of God and obey His commandments. i will renounce any immoral acts and bring people close to God!!!

all these things are never impossible with the grace and power of God Almighty. i will do all these things and other important practices (though not stated) with diligence, dedication and whole heartedly despite the judgemental others in this world.

towards the realm of chemistry

since i have no choice, but to shift to bs chemistry, i also have no choice but to learn more about the course. and so i somehow inspired myself to take the course heads up and with greater inspiration. basically, chem eng and chem are sister courses in a way that they have common chemistry subjects, but chemistry focuses more on a lot of chemistry.

well, i love chemistry ever since, i like the experiments and all, and even the culminating and exiting thesis makes me go even more excited about life. anyways, chemistry is the central science according to our teacher. and from it, i reflected that perhaps it is one of the most versatile sciences ever, since a chemistry graduate may choose to proceed to medicine, engineering or even management with ease. or if not, proceed to graduate and post graduate studies. how interesting.

chemists are inevitable in any manufacturing company. a chemist is there in making beers, alcohols and wines. experimenting on food, studying the environment, create a new drug, maximize raw materials for production and many other industrial jobs. then a chemist may proceed to the research and developmant side of science studying chemical reactions, doing analytical methods, environmental evaluation etc. and most of all chemistry graduates can always enter the academe and share the prowess of chemistry to other people.

perhaps chemistry would be fulfilling, but before that happens, i should always be willing to learn new newer and the newestr things about it. and so Go Go GO Michael...=D

releiving some stresses in life

oh my goodness, i have almost neglected this blog of mine... my supposed to be journal and sketch of my life. well, i'm very sorry because lately our school work, i mean extraordinary schoolwork somehow ate my spare time for updating, but nevertheless i am doing my best to balane everything.
now to start the retelling of the long story, the midterms started somehow fine, but there were still teachers who never did commit themselves to excellence fully. some teachers were still late impeding the learning process. but nevertheless i made the most of who and what was available. then during the duration of the classes, teachers were so diligent in giving successive examinations, projects and long lectures. it's driving me crazy. but the good thing is i have learned to somehow recharge myself through internet surfing, interaction with others and even in solitude. oh come on its so nice to be alone, right? and so since this week is the PAASCU week for the school, so the terachers are becoming busy preparing for that day. the good thing is they are giving extra effort in teaching to keep up with the standards. then that is great!
and now, i am having some spare time, since we would only have alecture in anal geom and ang saya ng buhay. hehehe... i'm so happy na nakapag blog blog ako today.=D

ad majorem dei gloriam.
