THE TOP TEN TALE

Honestly, I don’t do well in school if you compare it to my past records. We can officially call it my all time low. BUT WHO CARES. Lord wants somebody else to have that place, so let it be.

But why the hell did I opened up this topic if I really suck in it? Because I experienced something I have never felt before. And it is to get the thing that you really want and worked for a long time.

Since first year, I loved the subject “history” but for some circumstances and wrong mindset, I can’t get on the top ten of that particular subject. Until one morning, card day in my third year, I went to the grounds for the mass. Half way there, I took a small peek on the araling panlipunan top 10 (wishing for a little miracle). I can’t see the names clearly but then I got the glimpse of my surname, and I said, “What was tha…” I went closer to the list AND I SAW MY NAME ON IT. I actually counter checked my memory bank if I have a batch mate that has a name like mine, thank goodness my brain said “0 results”. I didn’t even notice that I already slipped a smile on my face.

The feeling was better than getting a gold medal for a thing that you don’t really like. I learned a lot from that morning, and I gained more respect for myself and for the people that succeed on the field they love, and sympathize with those individuals that are still a prison of their closed hearts.
