Don't Quit!

 way back.. third year high.. i really would want to be a CAT Officer, (yea i know, that sounds boring,, marching sa field, mainit.. etc) hehe.. i invlove myself into COCC training..being a neophyte is not easy for me.. of course you have to show respect to your officials.. you know..
greet them whenever you see them in corridors, salute them, and haha.. be like a servant for them. for example.. "Melou, Bili mo ko ng burger and juice" then you being a neophyte.. xmpre sunod ka nman.. i always think that someday.. i'll be an officer.. AKO NAMAN ANG MAG-UUtos! haha..  i also remember them asking us to memorize this poem entitled

          DON'T QUIT.. 

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, 
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill, 
When the funds are low and the debts are high, 
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, 
When care is pressing you down a bit, 
Rest if you must, but don't you quit. 

Life is queer with its twists and turns, 
As everyone of us sometimes learns, 
And many a failure turns about 
When he might have won had he stuck it out; 
Don't give up, though the pace seems slow - 
You might succeed with another blow. 

Often the goal is nearer than 
It seems to a faint and faltering man, 
Often the struggler has given up 
When he might have captured the victor's cup. 
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down, 
How close he was to the golden crown. 

Success is failure turned inside out - 
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt - 
And you never can tell how close you are, 
It may be near when it seems afar; 
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit - 
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.
