We Brought Home The Trophy!

February 12, 2010

Singing the Wrath of David, Dies Irae and the inspiring song about the Unity of Filipinos, Magkaisa with full force and mixed feelings, I didn't heard my voice while I'm singing on stage, same thing as my co-chorale.


We Will Bring It BACK!, as the OV alumni shirt says.

T'was a remarkable day for the ONE VOICE ENGINEERING CHORALE as we brought home a bacon at the Faculty of Engineering. 


We felt the pressure within ourselves but as they announced our Faculty as People's Choice Award and as well as the Himig Tomasino 2010 Champion, WOOOH!!, OV felt again the spirit of being a CHAMPION, straightforward to the trophy that we've got. And as we've sung the song "We Are An Offering", we totally gave thanks to the LORD our GOD, for giving us not just wonderful voices but purity in our hearts.

As a newbie/first timer in OV, I finally experienced winning in a chorale competition with all the effort of practicing every evening (exempted there was the bonding moments we've shared in each and everyone of us). Thank you for welcoming me and my co-first timers in One Voice Engineering Chorale. 
Thank you to our dear OV Alumni and to the whole Faculty of Engineering especially the Engineering Student Council for giving us full support. 


Special mention to my INSPIRATION, whoever she is. :)

Pressured Moments

After weeks on HIATUS MODE. 

I sensed myself that I have no time unwinding against pressure between assignments and exams as well as extra-curricular activities. 


Incremented also there the rejection inside my room, you might as well ask me about the issue regarding on that. In this case, it intensely stressed my nerves that's why I experienced lack of concentration that made me fail again this preliminary period (I guess I'm right).   


Yeah, right!. "Oh well, I'll be focusing my studies this final period for the sake of passing". So what now?


Time Management is on-the-go. Guidance in every step I carefully take. "LORD, bring me back where I started to gain achievements in life", I asked every time to HIM.  


MAN!, WAKE UP! and don't put yourself down. :D

New Year's Resolution!

New Year's Resolution? What would it be? 


Physical Appearance?
It won't happen at all but if I will continue to improve my daily lifestyle, maybe my physique will change. I'll pray and ask GOD for that.


Bonding with my Family? 
Today, I'm with my mother who came back to celebrate Christmas and New Year in the Philippines. She left my father who worked and temporarily lived in Saudi Arabia. I hope next year, me and my family will celebrate Christmas and New Year TOGETHER.


Skills?
I shall gain more skills pertaining to blog posting because someone told me that I'm not good in English. Oh well, a quarter of my life is on blogging, so next year it'll be surprising if someone will read my post, no one could ever react. I won't stop BLOGGING. :)


I want to have a saxophone and a ukulele and I'll also try to compose songs. I love to express my emotions through music. GUITAR is my forte but I hope next year, I'll try to use other instruments rather than guitar. :)


In addition for the 2nd semester, I need to improve my programming skills, kinda slow and pressured a little bit but these feelings and emotions will definitely foregone if I'll read more articles and posts about programming, maganda para sa akin hindi ba?.
  

Lovelife?

I don't think it will happen again and again but of course it depends on me. I'll focus more on my studies rather than to be in love. Hindi kasi mapigilan ang paghanga na mapupunta sa pagmamahalan. Arrghh, those corny lines that I've used. 


And lastly..

Think Positive in all the things you like to accomplish. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!

YEAR OF THE TIGER coming up! :)
