This chapter has ended. I am now Russel Anne P. dela Peña, a graduate of Bachelor of Science in Accountancy of Xavier University-Ateneo de Cagayan Batch 2015. My four and a half years in college wouldn't be the same without the people who made all things happen.  (Crusader Yearbook Pictorials 2014) To the university:  Thank you for 8 years of Jesuit education. Even at a young age, Xavier has invested on encouraging us to strive and be more. We've achieved greatness as young as we are. What I wouldn't forget during my stay in grade school were our confession with Fr. Bob. His words were words that made me want to shed tears. I've felt the presence of the Lord through him. As a kid, I held on to those unshed tears as I did not want to appear weak but honestly, those were words that made my faith in God strong. That is why when I came back to the university for college and when Fr. Bob celebrates the mass, I feel and remember by grade ...

I woke up at around 6pm and checked on my phone. There were messages from my classmates informing me that the grades are out and to check mine ASAP. In that moment, I felt anxious and afraid at the same time. For me, there was no more time for failure. Once is enough. I prayed to God, to Mama Mary, Papa Joseph, all the angels and saints to bless me with what I was asking and working hard for the past 6 months.  I didn't want to see my grades yet but I knew that I had to. I did not have a choice. I had to know. It is now official. I am graduating as a Bachelor of Science in Accountancy student of Xavier University-Ateneo de Cagayan in the year 2015. I may have been delayed for one semester but I learned a lot from failing a year ago and all I can say is that failing was my turning point or my wake up call.  A year ago, well a lot of you might know that I faced a very challenging experience in my academic life. I have never failed in this area. I was us...

(c) http://wallpapers-v2.com/wallpaper-books/ I believe that everyone dreams to be a somebody someday. Perhaps you wished to be a doctor, educator, politician, accountant, lawyer, artist, actor and etc. The world is full of possibilities. You can be anything. You can be a somebody.  I've read this book entitled, "The Dream Giver" and shared a parable about becoming a somebody from a nobody. It's a good read and it's something that I would like to dwell on based on my experience 4 hours ago.  Read on. Have you ever dreamnt of becoming a somebody?  Have you ever imagined yourself already a somebody? (Like you've achieved your hopes and dreams because now it's no longer a dream but a reality?) Now,  Have you ever experienced doubting yourself, being doubted by people or being criticized and laugh at for having such a dream? If your answer is yes, then here is what I would like to say to you, " Hold on to that dream and...

School demanded more study time since we got back from the Holidays. Midterm week was scheduled a week after classes resumed. Work demanded more time too since I was offered a new job in the company as Marketing Coordinator for Admin. I'm currently on training as a bookkeeper and am still working on my previous job description as I'm still in awe and in love with doing the Visual Merchandising of the stores.  January is driving me craaaaaaaaazy!!!!! I feel like breaking apart.. But, I can't. I shouldn't. I won't. If you'd think of studying and working full time please do think again because it is NOT easy! Like no! It's not a joke! It is serious business. I'm trying to balance things in school, work and how I am going to live life in this city as I am proud to say that I am now on self-support. I pay for my dormitory, my tuition fees and allocate a part of my salary for my savings. But, my parents are there ...
