NLTSGO: Mem'ries that can't fade away

Whoah!! Atlast, I have already fullfil my biggest dream as a student leader... I've finally undergone and experience to participate in the National Leadership Training for Student Government Officers. It was my happiest moment as a student leader and a fullfilment as well. Smiles comes onto my face every time I remember NLT, the time when we once sitting with the crowd of participants. And every time I remember these days, the loud but happiest cheers and noise in Benitez Hall and NEAP Hall echo in my mind.
It was fifth day of September 2008 when it's my first time enchanting Baguio with my schoolmates--- I mean going to this place without the accompaniment of my parents. It was also my first and the last experience as an NLTSGO participant. Like others, I was excited of the cold weather, the fogs, the sweet smell of pine trees, the authentic tribal communities, and the breathtaking tourist spots. More than these, I was overwhelmed with the thought that I am joining the biggest gathering of young student-leaders in the country. I was so motivated to wake up early, brave the ice cold water for a bath, line up with my companions for our breakfast, and be on time in the plenary sessions to listen to the respected and popular speakers and personalities to take down notes all the topics for upcoming leadership training in our respective schools. The things that was inspired me most were my fellow studen leaders and our prominent speakers, with their sharings of experiences as they go to the journey of being a leader. With that, it made me realized how far I've gone through and looking back in the past where I've started from the scratch...
.."Who could say that a simple girl who dreamed big is now in the positions of the biggest organization, the positions that was dreamed by every students---the umbrella of all school organizations, Supreme Student Government... I can't believe this what happened. Since elementary, I haven''t experienced of becoming an officer then because some of my classmates and teachers doesn't like me and it seems that if bthere's an institution they dont want me to enter in that school I've last attended . So I'd prefer to sit alone while eating my merienda , making assignments alone, and don't even have real friends to consider. Honestly, there are some but most of them are just being friendly because of their favors. It hurts, isnn't it? The life as an elementary atudent then is the saddest on my part... But then my life was change when high school came... I have learned to come out into my shell and to mingle with everybody. In this chapter of my life, I became active and livelier. I have already joining some of pur school activities, sharing my hiddfen potentials to inspire my fellow students. Then I joined the SSG elections, I've loss at first but because of eagerness to serve others I tried to join again wherein that time I won. How nice myu feeling is. As if I'm sleeping on my bed and dreaming of a wonderful and unforgetable life experiences...."
Back there, the NLTSGO gave the realization to many and significant firsts in my life--- the achievements and struggle. Thjose are immeasurable and significant experinces. It helped me to become tougher and stronger individual. I have learned to live by my own means not expecting the supervision and guidance of my parents besides me. I have learned so much--- more than I learned within the corners of my classroom. They are what CSCA calls "More than Edfucation." NLTSGO taught me to dream big and to become extraordinary 'cause only dreaming is for free.
Moving on, though I'm already a 4th year HS student 5 months fro now my life as a student leader wiil soon come to end. But even though my term is already over I could still be a leader in my own ways. Because in my heart being a leader is not the position and popularity, it is how you serve your fellowmen. As what oldies says, "Once you became a leader, you're always be a leader forever."...

My Life's Pressure

Two days before the examination our school administration have postponed our first periodical test due to typhoons. I was very happy then because I had given another chance to have enough review. But time seems too short that I didn't use it wisely. Every time I hold my books and notebooks my bad traits of being maniana habit(laziness) is rising up. I used to postpone my works ("later") just to do things to fill my satisfaction. When the test will soon to come that was then the time that I come to realize the deeper meaning of the words so called "Last Chance". I was cramming at that time just to review my notes and different emotions were aroused in myself. I felt so nervous and hopeless. I know it's my fault, so whatever results will come there's only one person whom I use to blame...not my classmates, not my teachers,, but its myself. And then here comes the National Career Assessment Examination. Imagine? We're not fully recover from our first periodical test and yet here's another dexam to do again... What a heck..Pressure, Pressure, Pressure.......... These two exams were really made me pressure. It was nearly brought me to hell.
tsk,tsk,tsk..
