The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.
He has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire.
An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last.
It has been said that democracy is the worst form of government, except all the others that have been tried.

My essay for the Health and Sciences Academy. yes, I can write a lot of bull.
Growing up in the Philippines, I was surrounded by poverty which unlocked something deep inside me and with as much passion as a six-year old could muster, I have decided to become a doctor. I was always cradled in a nest like a fragile being but that doesn’t mean that I am oblivious of the sad reality that people are unnecessarily dying or suffering because they are not getting the proper medical attention. I want to make a difference, however small that may be. With insatiable curiosity about all forms of science and the desire to help and learn, I believe that I can with the help of the Health and Sciences Academy be a good doctor who not only views being a doctor as her career but her life. This is my dream and with your help, I’ll be one step closer to making that a reality.
