Malamyang nag-iisip. 😆

When things are getting overwhellimg, stop what you do, leave them and breathe.

We do not survive each day just to chase time.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Wala akong naalala kundi hirap na dinanas namin noon. Helpful though but everything was exchanged for a labor often underpaid.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Let us not discredit the work of our colleagues by telling our students unverified accusations against them.

That tells much about who we have become because of our insecurities.

If you lack collegial ethics, then at least, you keep your unsolicited opinions on yourself.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Malapit na yata akong mag-"a day in my life as a college... "

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Meron talagang hindi nakaka-realize ng kanilang pagkakamali.

Hay. Anya metten aya.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Thank you Lord for the feeling of contentment, not from being complacent but from Your graces.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

In a world that is loud, silence is power.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Some people who know me may believe that I can easily master whatever comes my way. This is an image I, too, once believed about myself.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

That quiet perception of competence slowly hardened into a structure, a steady facade that my humble work has carried and displayed through the years.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Yet recent burnouts have carved deep cuts into that structure– wounds that, tragically, are not easily mended nor seamlessly rejoined.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Still, I hold on to the hope that one day I will rise again in my full strength, ready to face reality head-on –without excuses, without drama, and without the weight of self-imposed limitations.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

We need to let go parts of ourselves in the past to continue pushing ourselves to this battle.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Kakambal ng malamig na gabi ang pagsusumamo natin sa kapanatagan. Nawa'y ang mga sugat ay maghilom at magsilbing katatagan natin sa hinaharap.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Gratefulness is among the time-honored principles of a peaceful life.

Be grateful to people who we get to interact with especially those who have helped us at times of our crises and lows.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

I just feel that I need to write this and go back to it once I have proven I am right.

People who tend to care aren't always sincere. Same goes to the people who you express care for. They eat your energy.

I wanna be out from this. I no longer know myself.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Can we just work without excuses?

Oftentimes, excuses are weaponized to blur incompetence.

You are overdoing it.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

With the current knowledge we already have about human behavior, all I thought people will no longer do guilt tripping.

It's a no brainer to spot one, unless the person has no shame at all, worst unlearned.

Asking for help is different from guilt tripping. So there!

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Greatest fear:
Doing things for compliance

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Apaka ingay natin ngayong gabi.

[Jen @Mephurnjhen]

Everyday is tiring for an [extra]overloaded faculty, but this day is beyond demanding.

Working behind scenes as always, but everything will later manifest their good results. No drama. No lame excuses. No reason to maintain status quo.
