Defying and Surviving the Odds

This 3rd quarter has been so far the shortest and jampacked weeks for me. Although it only totaled to around 4 weeks or 30 days, many things have to be managed and handled properly in terms of studying, working in subject requirements plus the excitement of the Christmas season  and holidays. This quarter tested my management skills and study skills wherein I sleep late to  study and waking up early to beat the 6 am classes. This 3rd quarter's highlight was the Christmas program. A chance to share love, blessings and give gifts to teachers and friends. A chance to show gratitude n appreciation for our teachers efforts. Most especially a chance to take a break from academics and have a program with games, laughter and food. Happiness and oneness was the end of the year for me which  falls on the 3rd quarter.   A proud Markov.
