Library as heaven

    The Library. My heaven, but seems to be hell to some who don't own a card or afraid to face a frowning librarian.

    Today, in the generation where everyone owns a tablet/laptop or any gadgets with an eBook application installed in it, the library seems to be too old-school and most of the time, forgotten.

    It makes me feel sad to know that (some) people forgotten the use of library or they don't even know they have a library in their own town. Maybe to some urban poor area, maintaining or having a library is not a major priority. But, having a library that is free for everyone who is willing to learn and at least try to read on their own, makes a place out stand (It is just my opinion).

(This next part is what I hate most) Students are afraid of entering the library.

    I don't know why, they are afraid of facing the librarian! They are just too scared to borrow books or even having an application for a borrower's card. Gee! What in the world would they think the librarian will do by the time they enter the library. And, they even scared of touching books like those books will eat them the moment they touch them!

    Library is a paradise. For real.

    People might think it sounds geeky or whatever, but if you value your right to enrich yourself, library is the place to be.

    I know that those gadgets and applications (e.i. eBooks) occupied and replace the use of library and real books and they have the same practice, which is reading. Technology has lessen the hassle of carrying large books or even going to libraries.

    Let me clear first that I am not against the technological innovations. But, holding a real book while cherishing the silence of the place will give you that certain authentic feeling that only the library could bring. And on the other hand, you will help authors in their fight against the copyright problems and plagiarism. It is where real treasures can be found that the new generation can't realize--Knowledge. Knowledge is the only thing that can't be stolen nor rot in this world.

    And, the library  is like a temple of endless knowledge. I don't want to see the future without a place like this that is vanished by the idea of modernization and technology and worse, by the people's ignorance.

New school, new friends, new life

    The last two months of 2012 was the busiest months I've had since I came back to college to finish the last three semesters of my degree.

    Busy for the documents for transferring to another school (by which, apparently, still on process), but I am able to enroll to another college school. Busy working for Big Boss (which is father) as her auditing/marketing/production assistant which makes me, again, stay away from the web.

    Going back, I have to transfer to another school. This time, not in a university, but just a college school. Anyway, I am thankful that I am able to study again and finish my degree.

    I met new friends and are very understanding and has a good personality amid their pasts, they stand strong and inspires people—inspire me.

::Gladys::

    ::Gladys::, a returning student on the same course, is so pretty and has an inspiring story that has shared to me; I am not in the place to tell what it is, but it is something that has tested her faith and loved her husband even more. I saw their pictures on Facebook and the way that she describes to me her husband every time she opens her notebook with his picture in it in front during class makes me say: "I wish I could meet the lucky guy". They are very lucky to have each other.

::Marivel and her sister Marites::
My shot :) at Madagascar
Christmas adventure

    Down to earth and a real description of "Dalagang Filipina" and "Maria Clara" is ::Marivel::. She's from Samar and an Octoberian student. Same as me, this is her first semester at the same school and I feel blessed to be with her because she resembles my old time friend, Rea. They have the same characteristics. She makes everyone smile, effortless.

      Lovely as she was named, ::Lovely:: is a true lovely girl with a unique charm and simplicity in her own ways. We are in the same Entrepreneur class, just one subject, but I think we have spent half of our days together chatting about our past universities. I think we are bound together because we share the same situations—stopped for two years and returned as transferred students.

::Study Harder!! lovely in her term papers::

     Though, every day was very tiring—physically, these people who are making me happy in every single ways and enthuse me to make my daily living more splendid. I hoped to have more wonderful days with them.
