A lost chance

Yester night, my mom told me that our principal from UPHS called her earlier that day. She has been told that there is a scholarship slot needed to fill in and I might be the one. My sisters have graduated and I’m the only child who’s studying right now. Mme. Baltazar, our principal knew that fact and told my mom to let me call her this morning at about 9 o’clock.

I was so happy of what I have heard about and was so excited. I thought “Wow! I’m going to be a scholar and make my mom happy.” So I called Mme. Baltazar earlier this morning and she told me that maybe someone else needed the scholarship more than I do. I was really sad and felt bad that I won’t be able to be a scholar. I hoped and wished for it but sometimes, there are things in life that are not meant for having.

I went to school after the call I made to see Mme. Maglasang, our Guidance Counselor. She was what I needed at that time. She gave me back my hope and said that maybe someone else really needed it more than I do and that maybe something better awaits me. I was happy and my optimism came back to life. I thought that I could do better than before.

I should maintain a high GPA for the school years left of my high school life and improve on the skills I have as a leader. I should concentrate on my studies and have it on top of my list. I should give my best for what’s left of me. I want them to be happy. I want them to be proud. And when they do, so I’ll be…=)
