Whew!  Astig!

Kapagod sya, pero it was all necessary in preparation for our Warm-Up Climb at Mt. Tarak, Bataan kasi daw "matarik ang Tarak".  Masaya naman on one hand and fulfilling kasi I never dared thought that this is possible.  Nung college, climbing the stairs of Andrew Hall hanggang 12th floor, laylay na dila ko and cramps na ang legs.  Pero sabi nga ng SMCnoys, mental conditioning is as important as physical conditioning.  If your mind thought it, then you can achieve it.

"If you think you CAN, then you're right.  If you think you CAN'T, then you're right as well."
