the sad truth...

If I would be given a chance to bring back the one of the happiest days of my life, I would choose my high school life. Perhaps few would contradict on my statement that high school days are the best experience every student would have. This is the stage where personalites and characteristics change. We grow being a better human through the experiences we gained. It is the first step in becoming a developed and functional individual.

Most of the students I have asked about what they miss, it seems that they always answer, "siyempre noong high school". I couldn't blame them for uttering such thing because honestly I feel the same way. I have experienced the days being a kid, weeks being a boy, months being a teenager and years being who I am now. If there was a time machine invented, I would try to open the world ofthe past and once again have a quick glance on the years I have stayed in my Alma Mater. I would have felt being in a long journey and at last, coming homeagain. It would be a colorless feeling seeing yourself on the false realitywhere you cannot go back but just reminisce who you were. The feeling of beingsad is right there and there but the everlasting agony being away from home isjust a "past".

The name Eduardo was all I could hear during those days. I got to know every heart and got some of the part as my own. I have known every mind and them on me. We bonded with firm tie and created a bond of friendship. The name Eduardo wasn't an ordinary name anymore.It was a known name to everybody who had held my heart. There was a time when the name Eduardo was now replaced by the name Nino (ninyo). They have conquered my life and knew me profoundly. They had a strong grip on who I was and who I'am today. These people cared and still care so much to me. Yes, they are milesaway but their memories are within me. They have transformed me from being akid down to being the best and full-grown man.

Reminiscing the days have passed is a suicide. It will only make me gloomy or insane. I've never said the life being a high school student is a hell-like experience. I've never said that last four years were agonizing. I would just want to express how reality speaks for itself. I emphasize the feeling being away from the people close to your heart; the feeling being in reality and the past as your nightmare. But then again no one can blame anyone. Life is tricky and if you don't know how todance with the rhythm of the song, you can never survive...........................................
