Start Your Work Early


"Work hard now and guaranteed success will be granted in the future."

Personally I tend to relax right after I've already achieved some kind of success because I know that I've already done my job. I sometimes forget that there would be more things in store for me in the future and I should realize that I would have to get up and start my work again. Yes, relaxing is alright but remember that it shouldn't be done for a long time. As I said, there would be more things in store for us in the future. A perfect score in a quiz, finishing your homework, winning an award, and even finishing school would be the common achievements to common people.


Maybe this would be the shortest entry that I've written since because I don't really have anything in mind as of now. I plan to write something about Christmas for my next entry and yes it is my favorite season. :)

"Never stay contented, Keep on working hard to reach your goals."

Until the next time.

Inter-La Salle Sports Coopetition Camp 2008


University of Saint La Salle, Bacolod, Negros Occidental, Philippines

Again I had the chance to join another Inter La Salle and of course you wouldn't leave that event if you haven't had any fun. The bond among the different La Salle schools was very amazing because it was one of the objectives of the whole camp. Take note of the word "CAMP" because this event was different among the previous Inter La Salle events because this time the games were just purely friendly matches. I think that it was a great idea because people really get united through playing sports. Having fun while making new friends was very unique and of course exciting.

The team arrived in Bacolod at around 3 in the afternoon with the very warm smiles of the people of Bacolod. I'm not a stranger to the place since some of my relatives live in the province but it was already about quite a while since I last visited. The whole experience was worth the cause and I thank God for giving me that chance. Not everybody gets to play sports, not everybody studies in a La Salle school, and not everyone gets to participate in an event which comes very rarely in some person's life.

We closed the whole camp with a party. Everybody had time to get close and know each other during the last night. I got to make new friends from the other schools specifically La Salle Iligan, Bacolod, Cebu, Araneta, and Greenhills. Not only that I made friends from other schools, I also got to make friends from Zobel. I've known some of them from name and face before but this was the only time that we got close. These guys were from the girls volleyball team, the girls and boys football team, and the boys and girls swimming team. All the tension just left everyone as we all got together and just enjoyed each other's company. The party wasn't much but definitely it was something to remember.

Leaving the camp made me a better person. It taught me how to be more perseverant, friendly, caring, and supportive. The camp also helped me boost up my confidence more because I got to cope with people from other schools quite smoothly.
"One HEART, One SOUL, One DREAM, One GOAL, One HOPE, One FAITH...ANIMO!"

Until the next time.
