To the moon

"A summer's disregard

A broken bottle top

And a one man's soul

They follow each other

On the wind ya' know

'Cause they got nowhere to go

That's why I want you to know"

I'm starting with the man in the mirror. I'm asking him to change his ways. And no message could have been any clearer, if you wanna make the world a better place take a look at yourself and then make a change.
Change is the hardest thing to to because, it is not easy to change who you really are. But when you do realize that things are needed to change, then change for the better. This is what I have realized these past months and especially this sembreak.
As I look through myself in the mirror, I couldn't see clearly of who I am. I might have lost track of myself and straying to a wrong path, but it might be just that I am a little confused and pondering what life really means. Things happen for a reason, I believe. Might be for good or for worse, these little experiences help us gain experience and lessons to be learned. A friend starting to drift away, families breaking apart, trust fading away, mind not working properly... these are some of the things that might be the common problem of straying away from the path we are supposed to choose. If things need to be settled, settle with yourself first, know what is wrong and what is right, understand others so that they could understand what you are going through too. A little change in personality could be a really big help to people around us. That's partly a case for me, no one is telling me what I have done wrong, so it might be a bit hard, but I am still managing.
We need to reflect on our mistakes. You are not the only one who is stupid enough to make mistakes again and again in life. I too am that stupid person. I keep making mistakes. Once you've recognized your mistakes, it's easy enough to correct them. Though time and persistence will tell if we do exactly change. But the next question is: what happens when we change, is it for the better of for the worse? It's a gamble we have to choose ourselves but when we pick the right paths, it will always surely be rewarding.
Expectations: we always have those don't we? That will never run out. We always want others to meet our expectations, but in turn, we haven't met their expectations as well. That's cruel, but that is how our world was made.
There is always hope that things will be better. I have to fix myself, care about my body and studies too, but there are other important things that needs to be done too. Because I won't give up on us and I am still looking up even if gravity pulls us down, it will never stop me from reaching the moon.
Let's believe, Hope, and Pray that things will definitly be brighter. Though 2012 hasn't been friendly, it's still not the end of the world. Thank You. 'Til next time again. Peace. Apollo out. :-)

2nd Sem

Yo. Still alive, still breathing, but almost down on my knees crawling. It's just been the start of the 2nd semester and things have gone on a roller coaster. 

To sum up the subjects that I'm taking up this semeseter are:

1) Electromagnetics - is back just like Vectors, "Too Fast, Too Furious", when you copy, you can't listen, when you listen, you can't understand a word because maam is like a GShG -7.62 Gatling gun. 

2) Dynamics - Papang is back with his usual moody self, while being hilarious & scary both at the same time, he just wants to retire, that's all but the school won't ever let him go. It's kinda like Mechanics but for now, it seems ok. Dealing with Free-Falling-Bodies & Physics

3) Deformable - Ouch. Man... New teacher, Engr. Ocate. What to say, he speaks softly but man, his tests are a pain. His catch phrase is "Okay lang?" "Makita nyo ni sa likod, Okay lang?" "Te, Okay lng?"

4) Electronics II - Engr. Alguidano is the same as ever. Kinda hates night class but has no choice because that's out schedule.

5) Circuits II - Dr./Engr. Java is the man of the semester again! Ouch. Super ouch. 2nd day of classes, we got locked out for being late when it was still 7am on our watch, the reason, his watch was 15 minutes advanced than ours. So, we had to adjust again. He's a bit fast and has too many shortcuts, so it's kinda hard to understand Phasors & the like.

6) Advanced Math - Engr. Catadman-Pascual, the newly married professor in the engineering building right here. She came back after a 5 year absence from teaching. So far, she's been a good teacher, very likely to replace Engr. Lacson's teachin qualities. So far so good.

7) Human Resource Development (HRD) - is a minor course in engineering focusing on the self-confidence and self-acceptance of the individual, to put him on the right track & keep his goals in sight. Too bad that it's Engr. Ojario who's teaching us this class, no body's gonna listen to his gags, he's just too much of a goofball, but still a good teacher. Random grades here we come again.

That was the list of my subjects this semester.
