Makeover

I think I became a better person these past few days. I have recognized forgiveness and humility. I have forgiven people wholeheartedly and willingly have asked for forgiveness. I have also accepted my limitations as a person... that I can't have everything I want. I have acknowledged personal space.

Information Overload

Last week has been very intellectually overwhelming for me. Imagine yourself in front of two time portals: one transports you to the conventional past while the other leads you to the far-reaching future. If you were a scholar, where will you first go to discover things unknown to you? I am currently enrolled in two subjects of almost the same contents but of different perspectives: Music Theory on Thursdays where my teacher is Sister Emelita, a traditional type of educator, and Historical Survey on Satudays under Ms. April Sta. Maria, a liberal one. To give you an example, both of them asked us to define music. To Sister Em (as how we call her), music is an organization of sounds of silences that is pleasing to the ears and delivers a message . On the other hand, Ms. April modified this definition by stating that music , as I recall, is a combination of sounds and silences that appeals to the senses OR the intellect . There might only be a slight difference, but the point is, the libe...
