God's Love

          If you feel so alone and nowhere to run, if you fell like everything’s messed up, pause for a while close your eyes. Talk to Him and say: Father, I may not be worthy to be called your child, but since I accepted your son Jesus as my savior, may it be a considerable reason for me to be yours. Teach me your ways; show me your will so that I may be acceptable in your presence. May I glorify you in everything I do. In Jesus name. Amen.

Take me out of the Dark

Just what is it in me?
Sometimes I just don't know
What keeps me in Your love,
Why you never let me go

And though you're in me now,
I fall and hurt you still
My Lord, please show me how
To know just how you feel

You have forgiven me
Too many times it seems
I feel I'm not what you might call
A worthy Christian after all

And though I love You so
Temptation finds its way to me

Teach me to trust in You
With all my heart
To lean not on my own understanding
I just forget
You won't give me what I can't bear

Take me out of the dark, my Lord
I don't wanna be there

You've never left my side
You gave Your hand to me to hold
Oh Jesus, I'm no longer in the cold

And yet, I leave You there
When I feel satisfied
I'd like to thank You every day
Not only when I feel that way

I've never known a Man
Who'd give His life for sinners like me
And yet, because He loves us so
He's promised us eternity
And we can have that promise
And be His if we have faith
And just believe

Teach us to trust in you
With all my heart
To lean not on our own understanding
We just forget
You won't give us what we can't bear

Take us out of the dark, My Lord
'Cause we don't want to be alone
Take us out of the dark, My Lord
We don't wanna be there, My Lord

Trust in You with all my heart
Lean not on my own understanding
I just forget
You won't give me what I can't bear

Take me out of the dark, My Lord
Cause we don't want to be alone
Take me out of the dark, My Lord
I don't want to be there

The Calling

What is my Purpose of being a writer?

     Some may say, I want to join Gazette because I want to impart my skills, while others would say I want to join because I want to learn. But there is one word I am thirsty to hear; it is the PASSION in writing. If you have that passion in you, no one can break your pen. 

     I was a journalism student in AMA before, I chose a computer school because it’s a two bird in one stone for me, I am learning more about computers and at the same time I am also learning how to write. But after a year AMA decided to have a tri semester policy which means higher payment for tuition fee. My parents cannot afford to pay that much so they told me to transfer at UPHL with my brother. He took up AB Communication arts while I shifted to Marketing. I changed my course because I want to help my mom in our business and partly escaping from writing. 

     But as I take my back into writing, my pen continued to flame hotter than it used to be and no matter how I hinder myself to write, the calling for being a journalist still exist. 

     When my brother offered me to be a staff writer in the publication, there is no hesitation; I hastily grabbed the chance to scribble my flaming pen. So, I decided to join the Gazette and continue my passion in writing. 

     But being a Gazette (a student journalist) is not just about making poems, it’s not just about expressing yourself, it’s not just about you, it’s about being a watch dog for the students. It is more in to service. 

     Gazette is living bearing the principle “FOR WHOM?” which provides sense and meaning to our existence. In everything we do, we do it for a cause, and that is to fight for the right and welfare of every student. In each line and every stroke that our pen scribbles on the papers are the struggling ideas and bursting emotions of the students. We write for the studentry.

     We stand to commit ourselves for the truth; no matter what it takes we will divulge the truth since it is our duty to provide information for the students.  



“In the two decades of our existence, we adopt to stand with the principle “for whom” which is for the students. As what our motto proclaimed: “Committed in truth and service of the studentry” In every aspect we are on the side of the students, regarding of the cost, for the integrity of being a campus journalist has motivated us.”

G-pipol, keep up the flame that burns inside your heart.

Acceptance in Love

If you love someone, you have to love her whole. love her for who she is... accept her painful past. because what important is her present and future with you. What matters most is that she changed her life for you... she may not be a perfect girl, but she can give love that last for a life time. 

"It's not enough that you accept me for who I am, but you should also accept me for who I am not."

Yes, I am in love...
