Part/Time

Thursday, July 29, 2010

I have a newfound respect for working students. Work and graduate school entails loads of effort. Seriously, you really gotta want to do it. You have to commit 101% to the whole process. You have to step up big time. It's hard to just coast along, especially if you're not one who would settle for mediocrity. Maybe sometimes you just have to give yourself a little push for that extra ounce of courage you need to get going. And sometimes, you gotta force yourself to go the extra mile no matter how much pain in the ass it means. I strongly believe that overcoming inertia is key to personal growth. As for myself, I've done the whole shooting for the stars bit already back in college. In short, nagsunog na ako ng kilay. I've paid my dues already. I graduated with honors. This time around, I'm not going to aim as high anymore; neither am I going to aim higher. Yeah, you heard me right. Don't judge me just yet. I'm not going to aim for the moon but it doesn't mean I'm going to just sail through either. I'm going to work hard still and hmmm...maybe I'm going to kick ass from time to time, haha or who knows, maybe I'd get lucky even. But more importantly, I'm definitely going to try to relax and enjoy the ride a wee bit more this time around. Heck, life's too short to be too serious all the time. Good luck to all of us part times at mabuhey tayo! Haha.
