slowly but shirley

aaaah. i just have to put that. it was taken from our ec meeting at ihaw-one yesterday. the number (metal ones here) which was given to us contained cliches such as slowly but surely and good things come to those who wait. it was a special meeting because of a reason i do not wish to put here because YOU are reading this. [and you might say, that i am stupid because i write on this blog and then i do not put whatever i want to say here, but you are just looking for "useful" information.]

slowly...
i am seeing the fruits of my sacrifices. i am learning to do the things that would make me happy. i am learning how not to hate or whine all the time. i am ignoring most of the hate i receive. i am living this life. [but then my majors would resume next week so, much slower then]

surely...
i am taking advantage of time. it takes time to make a natural pearl. and a natural diamond. and a lot of nice things. in the same way, it takes a lot of time for a person to learn different things. it may be slow, but it is sure.

happy birthday to a dear friend who does not want to celebrate her birthday today in much jubilation for unknown reasons. the natural comedian of the 'pool haus' people:
Catherine Quilon Guamos
you are now a lady. good luck with that.
