watching a docu about past presidents

was about to sleep.. . (no, actually, I'm studying haha!) then the documentary (entitled NEWSMAKERS) about the past presidents of the Philippines (from Marcos to Macapagal) caught my attention.. . it's like there are still lots of things that I know nothing about (well.. .wasn't born yet.. .during the presidency of Marcos.. haha up to the People Power)

anyways.. .it's just intriguing (I must say.. .haha di ko lam kung mahilig lang ba ko sa issues or what.. hehe) i find studying the past very cool! (but I don't like history really.. .) it's just that I feel like there's a need to study it.. .or look back.. .what went wrong.. .why our country is like this now.. .why is this and that happening.. . what happened during their presidency.. . stuffs like that.. . were there conspiracies.. . (for the sake of power?) whatever.. . (and I found out that Ramos is Marcos' cousin.. haha sounds fishy.. .) whatever.. .

I don't know.. .maybe to some, this stuff seems nonsense.. .but for me, I care about it.. .I care about this country.. . it's just sad that because people want power, they'll do whatever they can to achieve it.. .it's sad that people win the trust of some, and betray them afterwards.. .it's just so sad.. . Some say that indeed, wala nang pag-asa ang Pilipinas.. . but you know what.. .the hope of the Philippines is not in the president's hands.. .nor in any government official.. . it's in God's hands.. . alone.. .

idealistic? impossible? far from reality? religious? NAH.. .

that's faith.. . that's called holding on.. .

Just can't help but love this country that God loves.. .
even if everyone's leaving.. .
I still hope that someday.. .His promises shall come to pass.. .
And I'm gonna experience it here.. .
Not in any other country.. .

badly need prayers...

it's been like 3 or more weeks... since we passed our manuscript for our final defense... and the submission of the final copy [hard bound] is october 12 [which is next week...] and guess what... our schedule for final defense has been moved.. and moved.. and moved... and moved... the final defense is supposed to be today.. but yesterday, the secretary told my thesismates that the chairman of the panel [our beloved dean] is not available today... so she said, it would be on friday [but IT'S STILL NOT SURE....] and one professor joked at them saying, " octoberian na kayo.." whew.. [ tapos marami pang gagawin dun after the final defense.. =j -sigh- but i'm not worrying on those stuffs...] i don't believe that.. i believe that God's going to do something great.. but i don't know how.. i don't know when.. but one thing's for sure... He's never late... He's always on time.. -sigh- but sometimes.. honestly... i just don't know what to do....

Unexpected Provision

We were accompanied by two couples a while ago to Ongpin to buy our wedding ring... We only have 5k at hand but the ring's for 8k... Ate Joy covered for the amount that we lack... but later on, she said that we dont have to pay it back! Then Ate Helen also brought her wedding gown... I tried to put it on and surprisingly, it fits me well! I dont know what to say or think of... We were not raised to borrow from someone or ask for someone's help but God has His own way of providing for His children's needs... We may not expect it but He has His own way of hitting two birds with one stone--providing for your needs and teaching you some of His principles. I was just humbled by this experience... Indeed, He never forgets... His promise remains!
