Getting Extraordinary

I'm a BS Math student at UPLB and every person who happen to hear this truth simply exhibit some form of admiration. However, during those days the course is like a curse, a heavy burden I have to carry. Imagine thinking through one problem for over a week and still no single line of proof was written. And you have 9 more in the list that is due in 2 weeks!

Nevertheless, I thank God for having the diploma.

Apart from seeking God's intervention, I can account as of this moment what I would call an extra-ordinary effort I gave myself to survive BS Math:


Yes. It's a costly pen that I use for jotting down notes. Yes. I also sew my own notebook made from hi-grade long bond paper folded and bonded the way my father taught me how to bookbind.

The basic principle was given these costly investments, I should be ashamed not to give the best in me and pass this course. It is my investment. It is out of my own pocket while tendering student assistantship work from various departments in the University.

I believe this principle of getting extraordinary will forever hold true in my life as I embark newer and greater challenges.


Thank you Lord for your wisdom!
