On Personal Note: Why SJA?

Perhaps, I am not thinking seriously or i am just so childish or childlike (whatever you call it) when I was asked where i am going to finish secondary. Well, my two older brothers were 2nd year and 4th year high school (in SJA) that time and perhaps, eventhough I have an option to choose school, still San Juan Academy is the best option. Simply because there were only two schools existed that i knew and know: "SJA" and "the rest."

Somehow, maybe, I cant blame myself for having that kind of mind setting: conservative and sometimes liberal in any case, close-minded, and excited for new adventures 'regardless' of the space I could enjoy. Things that i could've changed way back. Sad.

With that attitude, i never thought of re-examining my thoughts, of choosing the school that made my life thrilling. Maybe, this is too much for insipid introductions (apologies).

Why SJA?

Though, the topic is not-so-serious because ever since when i am in my 1st year high school, that question is so over used up to the point that you knew what and how to answer just to please the teacher or something to that effect. However, i love to answer this because i have my new version (modesty aside).

It is expected that one will answer such as: 'it made me feel i belong', 'i found my truest friends there', etc. Yeah acceptable indeed. However, i dont settle for that. On personal note, decisions speak for one's personality/character. Choosing SJA to be one's alma mater for four years

i think that's not a perspective from a grade six kid nga masulod palang sa SJA. That's a mindset of someone who realized that that should be the reason for choosing something and not cliches like "i belong, etc.etc." That's beyond what a 12 year-old kid can think, i'm not underestimating but that's true, that's reality. ang ga-set pa gani kis-a is parents. right?

naham-ot ko sa term nga SJA and the rest. diri ko lang na sa Miagao nabati-an everytime mag-cheer kag magtinikal ang tawo.

haha. wala lang. comment ko lang ni.
