Mind over matter, I don’t mind and you don’t matter
While we often
think of our bodies and minds as two distinct entities, it turns out they are
much more entwined than we might assume. A change of mindset may help us a lot.
Care to read my story?
I don’t socialize;
I just want to be alone where I can be myself. I don’t mind if I have no
friends, besides, they don’t matter. I used to be a happy-go-lucky, friendly,
and viewed life as light as a feather. But everything changes, nothing lasts
forever… scary right? I’ve been through a lot and it’s bugging me, but right
now? I don’t mind at all.
When I first
encountered the subject Differential Calculus, I struggled so much; I became
studious, and passed some exams. Releasing of grades came, I was confident that
I’ll pass the subject but the only words that I uttered were “holy cow”. After
that day, I locked myself in my room, I was so devastated, so angry but then, I
realized grades are just numbers, it may change situations but I don’t mind
because numbers can’t decide my future.
When I was 4th
year high school, I experienced so much love and because of love, I felt so
much pain. He was my first boyfriend, I felt so happy, and everyday seems like
a fairy tale. Whenever I looked, his face is the only thing that registers in my
mind. Every time I think of him, my heart skips a beat. I asked myself, is it
really possible? Am I really physically attracted to him? Or maybe I’m just
fascinated by his charm? I don’t know, I really don’t know. But all strings
went loose, he cheated. I cried, I was confused and just heaved a sigh. I can
be in some of the happiest situations and my mind drifts off to him. It’s hard,
it’s just been hard. I don’t know, I keep thinking I am going to get better and
when that time comes, I will smile. Pain? I don’t mind, it’s just normal to
feel pain. You’ll feel pain because you loved, so there’s no regret in feeling
that way.
I don’t mind
being single. As long as I can find myself happy with my family, I’m sure that I’ll
be fine. But then again… I just laugh out of frustration. It seems like God was
angry then threw bad lucks and unfortunately, I embraced it all.
Okay, okay, I get
it now. I’m done dealing with it. Okay, life? You win, you always win and you
always have. I’m tired… everyone left me, when will you stop?
I’m tired
pretending that I am fine, that everything’s okay, that I don’t mind… don’t you
think it’s too much? I can handle the pain, the stress you’re always giving me,
but, why?
I just stared at
the corner of my room, everything is pitch black. I opened my cell phone and
checked if I have a message received. Then I saw a picture… a picture that
saved me from the darkness. “FEAR, there are two possible meanings. Forget Everything
And Run or Face Everything And Rise” I chose the latter and smiled. Okay life? Whatever
challenge you’ll throw, it doesn’t matter and you don’t matter. I’ve got a power
in me and that is to be mature and always think, Mind Over Matter.

THE
REIGNING GLORY OF PRES. DUTERTE!
President Rodrigo
“Rody” Roa Duterte is the 16th president of the Philippines. He is a
Filipino lawyer and he is the first Mindanaoan president of the country. He is
“the Punisher”, an alleged vigilante group called Davao Death Squad has
been tied to Duterte by human rights organizations and are responsible for the extrajudicial killings of
suspected drug dealers. On May 9, 2016, Duterte won the Philippine
presidential election.
His domestic policy has focused on combating illegal drug
trade by initiating a nationwide drug war.
Let us know more about our president.
Did you know that he was expelled twice? Yes, that’s true. He was kicked out of
Ateneo de Davao University due to misconduct. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts
degree in political science at the Lyceum of the
Philippines in
Manila. He also obtained a law degree from San Beda College of Law, still in Manila. Eventually,
he took the bar exam and passed it. He also finds his term in the Congress as
boring. He cares for indigenous and tribal people. He supports LGBT rights
saying “Everyone deserves to be happy”. He’s so hands on to his work, he
usually drive around Davao city twice a week to ensure things are well taken
care of. He is persistent to every word that he say and actually mean them. He
has a kind heart, in fact he was the first local government official to visit
Tacloban city and arrived earlier than Pres. Aquino. He is a leader who wants
delinquent people to be punished, a leader who is fearless, honest and
confident. He is the strong leader with a soft heart, yet, an impatient man who
wants high-impact results. Guess what? He is the best option we’ve got.

University
of Mindanao
Date: Sept. 05, 2011
To: All librarians
From: A.
Gotico, Dean of Accountancy
Subject: Obeying
the policies inside the library
Lately I have noticed that the students in the university
often eat inside the library. This practice presents a problem: the nature of
the library itself is slowly vanishing. Eating inside the library is prohibited
and is obviously one of the rules and regulation of the university.
Hereinafter, would you please form an orientation and
emphasize the rules and regulations of the university to every UMian for them
to be guided? Thank you so much.
