How About Aspiring Scholars?

September 15th, 2008 by Guest Writer

I want to be a scholar.

I want to study.

But I can’t.

Because I have no money for college.

I searched all government sites, perhaps looking for a chance to redeem myself and my family from poverty.

But i didn’t see anything, just scholarship labels that are too much for my mouth.

Bottom line : unless Im from a minority group, i wont be heard;

Unless I’m a genius who has fallen down from heaven, I’d never be given a chance.

Iskolar ng Bayan? nah, maybe some fart-brained rich kid who has some cash to review for UPCAT.

It disappoints me so much that i regret being born a Filipino, let alone living in this superficial planet, which they say is bound for extinction in a few hundred years.

So much for the hope of the nation.

Ergo, where do i go from here?

I’ll keep my fingers crossed for the moment.
