nothing much happened in school. i don't remember any lessons discussed. hmmm. but i'm glad i don't have to sleep late tonight to finish all my homework for tomorrow will be a day of a critical reflective thinking. crt for short. what will we be doing out there? i don't have any idea. but i'm thankful that there will be no discussions of numbers or theories or religion tomorrow. well, hopefully, there's none. and i am hoping that we will really have a critical and reflective thinking tomorrow. i am really really hoping that it will not be a boring session.

hmmm.

i'm so sleepy right now. and idle. and waaahh.. i have to go to my bed and rest. have a long beauty rest.

oh wait. i'll be posting an excerpt from shakespeare's romeo and juliet.
i find this line so sweet.

" and when he shall die,
take him and cut him out in little stars
and he will make the face of heaven so fine
that all the world will be in love with night
and pay no worship to the garish sun "
isn't it so sweet.
wahahah.
i so love the sky at night.

examination results were already released. i got good grades and some were even excellent grades but i failed one subject. 27/70. teenstar aka sex ed. rrrrr. i failed a minor subject.

on the brighter side, i got a perfect score in math and music. :-)

another quarter has already opened. 7 more months, and i'll be marching towards the stage. but since, nothing's really sure. i'm still not sure if i'll graduate, so for the mean time... i'm enjoying 4th year which feels like an extension of my summer vacation.

schedule for the second quarter has already been announced and i think we'll really be busy because of sooo many activities. stress is about to come. but i hope i'll finish this quarter with excellent grades and a smile.

well, i just updated this blog. for the sake of having something to do.

i passed english, filipino, accounting, analytical geometry and physics. they were some of the difficult tests. but i passed! line of 7 or not, i'm happy to pass these subjects.

:-) for the first time, i passed a science examination in the very first quarter. remembering the past, i failed chem, bio and gen sci 's examinations.

:-) yehey.. clap!

The first quarter of my senior year is finally over. 3 more quarters then off I go. The exams didn’t go as expected. It was hard and I really did a lot of guessing. Not few. But A LOT. Teenstar Periodical Test turned out to be the most difficult while Math turned out to be the easiest.

Enough of the exams talk. Waaah!! Next topic.

Wahahah. Guess what? I have fixed our computer. I am a certified engineer.

Our computer malfunctioned last Monday, and due to that, it was not turned on the whole week. Thanks to my engineering skills, we don’t have to pay a computer electrician (whatever you call it) anymore. Haha, for two days what I only did was to open the CPU and do a lot of “butingtings”.

And tada! I really shouted when finally, our computer is useable again.

Clap! Clap!

Thank you! Thank you!

Anyway, no classes today. Meaning all students and government employees had a long weekend. How did I spend mine?

Saturday à magazine photo shoot. With Anne, Karen and our model in La Mesa EcoPark. It was tiring. We walked and walked and walked until we got tired. Then I got sleepy. But when I reached home, I didn’t sleep rightaway. Even though the house’s lights were already off when the hand of the clock struck 21:00,I stayed in front of the computer for more than 3 hours. I surfed the net all night and also watched the piano which caused me a hard time to sleep. I slept later than 1 but before two.

Sunday à my dad woke me up as early as the sun is just about to shine. Kidding. It went raining all night that’s why the morning became cold and cozy and very inviting for another sleep. so when I heard my dad saying that we are going to the province, I thought I was dreaming. When my dad woke me up again approximately 10 minutes after his first attempt, I was shocked by his news that we’re going to the province because of an unexpected death of a relative. May he rest in peace. It was sad. But on the brighter sad, I realized that I’m not going to miss my cousin’s christening after all.

Oh yeah! Finally, we reached our 118kms. far province. But when we reached the place, I felt awkward about it. I felt really awkward when I was talking to my cousins. Weird feeling. But after so many hours of silence, I finally found myself again. My family and I visited the family who just lost my tito. it was sad. The place was so quiet. It was very different from the day my mom died. I don’t know, but it the place was sad, and cold.

Anyway, night came when celynn and I felt the urge to go home. But we didn’t go home. We went straight to my cousin’s place and found them playing scrabble. Wahaha.. first time I saw them doing that.

Hours and hours has already passed when celynn and I decided to sleep in aj’s place (my cousin). Together with aj, boni, mac, apo and alvin, celynn and I spent the night playing PS games. Eating junkfoods. btw, I didn’t play. I only watched them play. Grabe, it was just like a summer day. A summer sleepover. After so many hours of laughing and fun, we realized that it was already 6am. We weren’t complete but I really had fun even though my eyes were already shouting at me telling me to sleep. why did we decide to sleep?? because ninong was already awake. And told us to sleep. celynn and I decided to go home. And so we did and when we reached there, I didn’t anymore find my own place or a bed to sleep, I decided to sleep beside my ninang. We went back in here after 3 hours of sleeping. I slept during the whole trip. Then slept again when I reached my bed. But before I did, I prayed and thanked God for summer days hasn’t really drifted away. Hahah. Unlike what happened in Grease, school days is just occurring so that time won’t be wasted.

done with UA&P. it was easy though there's going to be a really tight competition since they'll only be getting the top 800 examinees.

what happened last week?

my "last week" was amazing. aside from the new car bought, time passed by so fast and sudden. sleeping, laughing, waking up and dreaming are the only things i remembered myself doing.

last friday, I , together with poj, ella,tep, anna r., det and gla, attended tito jimmy's birthday. [gem's dad]. it was really funny that we dressed in semi formal attire . the executives. that's how we called ourselves after seeing people in their plain casual attires. i slept in gem's family's condo unit.

saturday came.
together with anne, jamie and aura, i went to intramuros to take pictures for our magazine. it happened to be gma's visit to intramuros, too. Too bad didn't the president meet me ,the next president. hmmp.. there might be a reason for that.

after that, we went to fort santiago and visited the mini museum of rizal's works and stuffs. now i know why he is called our national hero. his word were really patriotic.

after that, we went to baywalk. the place stinks because of the "aquarium-like" smell of the bay.

after that,we went to SM MALL of Asia. It was my first time to be in there.wahahhaha... aura and i had gone mad when we saw gerald of pbb.

after some stroll inside a part of the big mall, we stayed outside near the bayand waited for the sunset so we can take a picture of it. we did all sorts of criticism towards the people dating in there.grabe pda. sobra.. you know the piatos commercial? we did that too. we made script of people dating lalo na nung may nakita kaming guy na nagbibigay ng pinitas niyang flower sa girl.

hahah.. kadiri... after the long 2 hours of waiting, the sun didn't set beautifully. clouds covered the big huge sky. so, we decided to go home.

sunday,
woke up at 4:45 a while ago for me not to be late in my ua&p test. for the first time, i stepped inside that university. woah!!! it was really a nice and peaceful place. that shall be called my school . i hope i pass.

after the test, i attended the mass in edsa shrine together with the whole itao family. grabe its been two or more months since i last attended a Sunday mass. and since it was my first time to step inside the historical edsa shrine church, i made three wishes. and i hope God will grant them someday.....

after the mass, we went to galleria and ate at max's restaurant. grabe i adore the itao family. they are so bonded. i wish mine was like theirs too. and i wish,like them ,i can still hug and laugh with my mom. too bad that that wish is now impossible to come true. way too impossible ! anyway, i spent quality time with them. wahaha.. i had fun playing basketball in time zone. gemmalie!!! 15 ka 42 ako. haha.. loser!

kidding, really, i had fun. nawala ang stress.

to be able to express what im really feeling right now... hahah.. itagalog.. buwan naman ng wika eh.

grabe... sobrang kinilig ako last monday. i was with gem's family. and who are the persons in her family??? tito jim, tita girlie, ate lady, kuya gam and kuya james. ay wala pala si kuya gam kahapon at si ate lady.. grabe. i still can't forget what happened last monday. as soon as i stepped inside the classroom yesterday, I already started sharing the stories to my seatmates.. wahaha..

gem, you might read this.. thanks nga pala for having parents that wanted to adopt me.. pero i'm fine living in this far away place. i'm happy living in here..

saka malay mo someday.. wohoooo!!!!

grabe.. kinikilig talaga ako.. =) hindi ko alam kung bakit.. pero hindi ko siya makwento dito sa blog.

basta last monday, i went home late. pero hinatid naman ako sa house. thank you thank you. mga 11:30 na ata ako nakauwi ng bahay. i thought that my dad's going to scold me as soon as i reach home since i still have classes. pero i found myself sleeping..tas nagtext dad ko nung nagising siya. asking me kung nasan na ko.. hahaha. nagreply ako "nandito sa kwarto, natutulog na".

nakakatawa!!!

friday's the day to look forward to, again.

Anyway, my dad was supposed to leave for work today.. but it was postponed or shall I say canceled? Grabe, I’m wondering kung san naming kinukuha pera namin since February. Or siguro may savings lang talaga dad ko.

Oh well, basta ako… ako pa rin. This afternoon, Socorro Ramos (National Bookstore Owner) had a talk in our school . also Mrs. Custodio, if I’m not mistaken (FIC Owner). In fairness, our school is a bit big time. They’ve actually invited these prominent and well known people.

it was yesterday when i took the entrance exam for UP (upcat). it was hard (math and science part) and the reading comprehension part was BORING. there was a part in the reading comprehension about the world map -- longitude and the latitude --wherein i didn't read the context, what i've done is just answer the questions based on my knowledge about longitude and latitude. i don't know if that was a good idea, but i am hoping it is.

language proficiency was the easiest. thanks to my teachers.... they've given us so hard quizzes and they've trained us a lot. the errors in the test where easily identified.

what else? hmm.. i really did a lot of guessing in the UPCAT even though UP discourages guessing. I don't remember myself not answering a question. the time alloted for math was too short because the questions required so many solutions, so i ended up guessing a lot of items in that part. when my friends and i were discussing it, i realized that i haven't even read the question they were talking about. so now, im really hoping that my guesses where right. math saddens me because that is my expertise but i can't even solve the problems given.. i have solved some, only my answers to them weren't in the choices. that is why i ended up guessing a lot of items.

pray! i hope it works.

but at least im done with the upcat. four more entrance exams to come. one will be next week, though i haven't passed the application form. one will be on the 2nd week of september and the other two, no schedules yet.

i wish to pass ateneo in case i fail up. pressure talaga pag matalino mga kamag-anak mo. hmmmp. but ella told me a while ago that i am more on the UA&P material since i am more into business and politics. i wish what she said comes true.

i wish to study in one of the best universities in the country... kahit ua&p na lang.. that will do.. that will surely do... i want to be in it... i want to study in it.. but i still wish to pass upcat dahil nga sa pressure about having too intelligent relatives.

but i still prefer ua&p and ateneo. :-)
