Line of Nine

If your planning on the going to the USA, be sure to have a background on what jobs are 'in' otherwise you can just stay here and work. The following list is taken from The Wall Street Journal written by Sarah Needleman.





The lists ranking system is based on the following criterias: (1) environment, (2) income, (3) outlook, (4) physical demands, and (5)stress.

The Best and Worst Jobs

This prayer is so powerful and so meaningful. What I use this for is that before every examinations, I recite (and pray) this prayer. Results? It's for you to find out...

PRAYER BEFORE EXAM
BY: Gapuz

Dear God
Today I will take my examination
which is so important to me.
Though I am nervous, I am not afraid
Because I know that as I write my answers
It is YOUR hands that work.



And now, as I take this examination
Please enlighten my mind
to be able to answer correctly
And to recall everything that I have studied.
I will do my best in this exam and to you God
I will entrust my fate
I knoW that whatever will be the result,
it is according to YOUR will.

God gave you life along with intellect, humans are resilient.
We are God's perfect creation.

YOU have watched me

As I worked hard to study for this exam
Although I don't feel very confident
And I don't know if I am prepared
I truly believe that YOU would give me what I deserve.
I deserve to pass this exam, God.

I am happy that today YOU are with me
For with YOU I will win this battle
And as I close my eyes and feel YOUR presence
In this examination room
YOU put confidence to my heart.
AMEN.

Tip: You may write this prayer in the flap of your notebook. Or you can print this out and keep a copy in your pocket. I'm close to memorizing this!

"Oh Napano Ka?"

"Pautang Naman"

Kung mangungutang ka saken, parang nangutang ka narin sa isang pulubi. Aus lang naman mangu-utang eh pero sana hindi nila nakakalimutan na bayaran. Un ung nakakasakit dun, ung nakakalimutan nilang bayaran.Kaya next time, kung magpapautang ka bigyan mo ng interest or gawa ka ng listahan ng mga nangungutang sau, isama mo na ung address nila at ung telephone no, muka ka ng magpapaybsix.

"Bagsak Ka"

Dahil di pa ako nababagsak sa kahit anong subject di ko pa na experience to. Pero ung bagsak sa isang test, marami-rami na rin siguro. Masakit marinig to kapag "you did your very best" pero expect mo ng marinig to kapag tarantado ka sa school, di nag-aaral, lakwatchero/ra at di nakikinig sa titser. Bage mo!

"Napapatae ako"

Shet. Kung nagpapatae ka pwede ba wag mo ng ikalat (o ipagkalag). Punta ka nalang ng CR at dun mo ilabas ang iyong sama ng loob, baka sa brief or panty mo pa yan dumaloy.Di na kailangang i-explain pa.

"May Pasok"

Normal lang naman ung pumapasok sa school pero kung malakas ang hangin at bumabagyo ng todo-todo dapat wala ng pasok pero...may pasok! Langya, iba ata ang pakiramdam ng mga admin minsan numb na, ndi naman tau waterproof diba?

Eto pa ang masnakakasakit: Umuulan ng malakas tapos almost signal no 1.5 (round off to 2! yey) na, pero pinapasok parin kayo ng school niyo, bigla nalang malalaman mo na ung ibang school wala palang pasok! Kainis un. Pero aus lang "for the sake of knowledge" diba?

"Pengeng yellow paper (or paper)"

Nangyayari to kapag magstart na ung test tapos bigla nalang hahaba ung mga leeg ng mga classmates mo at lumalaki ang mga mata nila na kahit anong tago at hinhin mong kumuha ng yellow paper nanakatago sa bag mo, makikita at manghihingi parin sila sau, kaines diba?

  Magandang gawin dito ay mangolekta ka ng mga 5 pesos bawat isang tao, at bumili ka ng yellow paper sa class (tapos benta mo ulit sakanila haha) lahat kayo nun ay meron. At para di ka mahirapan sa pagdistribute, hatiin mo ang class into 4 parts, at sa 4 parts na un may isang taong taga distribute ng paper.


Maraming pasensya na sa aking pagsusulat sa tagalog, di po ako talaga sanay mag-sulat sa wikang tagalog. Di po ako proud dun, humble po ako at nakakahiya dahil isang akong Filipino at ni magsulat ng mahusay sa wikang Filipino ay di ko man magawa ng ma-ayos. Sana di mabasa ng Filipino teacher ko to...

Creator of all things, true source of Light and Wisdom, lofty source of all Being, graciously let a ray of Your Brilliance penetrate into the darkness of my understanding and take from me the double darkness in which I have been born, sin and ignorance.

Give me a sharp sense of understanding , a retentive memory, and the ability to grasp things correctly and fundamentally.

Grant me the talent of being exact in my explanations, and the ability to express myself with thoroughness and charm.

Point out the beginning, direct the progress, help in the completion.

Through Christ our Lord.

(a prayer from St. Thomas Aquinas)
