Hi guys! Hows hell week doing for you? If you feel like your motivation is fading away and you just cant jump start your brain into functioning again, well heres a motivating (or not) story to you. Before entering college I went to a review center for UPCAT takers somewhere in Sn.Pedro called Brain Train, and all of the proctors their were from UPLB. Each of them have inspiring and motivating stories to tell us in preparation for the UPCAT, and one professor told us a mind-boggling story that up to this day is stuck(f*ing up) up my mind . The Tale of the Hunter and the Pig, there was a hunter living in the woods trying to hunt this rare-breed of pig. This pig was so rare, none had been able captured it till this day. This hunter took the challenge and so he practiced firing his rifle everyday. The first attempt of the hunter capturing the pig resulted to the escape of the pig, so he practiced some more. The second attempt resulted the same, but he still practiced hard. The fourth attempt he thought to follow the pig into his home to think of a plan to trap it. What he saw was unbelievable, the pig was doing barbels and exercising hard just like the hunter ! The End. Now my professor asked us, what is the moral of the story? Many replied with witty answers (like, the pig just wants to get in shape too) but none got it correct. The story may seem complex but he told us this, you are the hunter, and the pig is the exam, while catching the pig one must be prepared to face tremendous pressure, do almost everything at the same time, and know how the enemy thinks, because in life strategy is the best solution to an adversity like the pig. The END. Merry Christmas, and Good Luck to us all !! -Corndog, MITL, 2013
