I call this day "The Day"

Today is Friday. It is one of the days of the week that I like best because it means weekend, and when it is weekend, it means rest, play, watch t.v., and gala. This Friday is so special because today is the cheering competition and sports fest of ABS or Association of the Benedictine Schools held in Pampanga. Of course, our school, St. Scho, belongs to that group because it is indeed a Benedictine school. St. Scho is the twin sister of St. Benedict, remember? Anyway, besides the cheering and the sports fest, today is also the card-giving day. Card-giving day means half-day, and when it means half-day, it means excellent and cool. Hahaha.

Since more than half of our classmates are in Pampanga, we are only 13 in the classroom. So "many". We just did some seatwork, research work and OSB with the teachers. By the way, OSB means over-sa-bonding. So Benedictine!

I remember that I feel some butterflies are flying inside my tummy whenever I think about my card grades. Unfortunately, my father and auntie weren't able to come in school to get my card so somebody in the family just got it instead-- my cousin. I feel nervous because I imagine that my grades became lower, since I was not satisfied with my periodical exam results in Math, CLE, Economics and Filipino. Haaay. I just keep my keep my fingers crossed and expect for the worst, not the best.

Until...

I just received two good news today. These news really made me very happy. I even jumped and jumped and jumped and jumped. Here they are:
1. The basketball varsity of our school won the two basketball games. According to Sceiy's dad, it's a history. Anyway, I'm so proud of them. Go, go, go Westgrove!!!!!

2. I saw my card grades. Yeah, right. My Filipino, Economics, THE (home eco), and MAPEH
grades are lower..only 2-3 points, but still, lower. And I expected these. On the other hand, with so much surprise, my CLE, English, Physics, Catechism and Homeroom grades became higher. My math grade is still the same. Fair enough. My conduct also became VG. Really surprising...hahaha... I was "noisy" this third quarter...hahaha...anyway, my average got higher... that's why. Again, really surprising. Expect the unexpected. Thank you, God!!!!

Friday...one of the best days of the week...and yet I'm looking forward to tomorrow... I will go to DLSU- Manila...I have a "mission"...wish me luck...thank you very much...

This is "The Day"...and it is a wrap.

Since it is the month of love...

"Love is everywhere" again. Hearts and cupids are commonly seen in malls and other public places. Flowers, chocolates and teddy bears are almost sold out in stores. Couples gather together as they hold hands and exchange sweet emotions. Love songs are played on different radio stations. Wow, everybody is getting "mushy" and all that, if you know what I mean.

Yesterday, Joy, Ell, and I ate at the canteen. We were talking about being sleepy, specially during CLE, and other school stuff...until Joy asked Ell if she has a crush...and then Ell asked me if I have a boyfriend. Stunned, I answered, "None!". Honestly, during that time, I was really speechless...

And yet there's another one. At the library a while ago, my physics groupmates and me went there for some researching about heat transfer. As I was reading about conduction, I heard some of my groupmates talking about boyfriends and dates. Then suddenly, Marita shared something about her encounter with my quince partner. (Quince is the short term for Quincenera. It's like a prom.) She told me that he greeted her when he saw her at SM. Oh no, not again! Not about guys again!!!

Since I entered senior year, I always hear some of my classmates talk about boys. It's really surprising because they're not like that before. It's natural for girls our age talk about something like boys. And maybe, that means they're beginning to "bloom" like a flower under the sun-lit sky. In fact, some of them already have had boyfriends.

Sometimes, I wonder, how come they experience that? How about me? Well, maybe it is not yet the time, and I'm not ready for such a commitment. I'm still sixteen...and there are still time for it...a lot of time, actually. Why hurry, right?
*Happy Valentines!!!!!*
***For Pedro and Juan, Happy Valentines!!!***
**Enjoy this day...**
*Well, I know you do.*

Happy and Sad

I'm having the best times of my life in school these past few days. The classes are shortened period because we have to practice for two hours every afternoon before dismissal for our field demo on Family Day. I fool around with some of my classmates and exchange jokes with them (actually, those jokes are kind of corny..haha). I have a "band practice" in our service maybe twice a week with my servicemates, Janelle and Audrey, and sometimes with Mikee. (Janelle-the vocalist, Audrey-the drummer, Mikee-the bassist, Dana- the guitarist...kuno...we still don't have the name but we have a manager, Carla, our grade three cousin...haha...) I pretend to play the guitar because I really don't know how to play that musical instrument although I can read the chords. And, I get to laugh a lot because I'm enjoying the company of my classmates.

This week, I'm looking forward to weekend because I'm going to Quezon City. Perhaps, it will be my second home from now on. I will stay there every weekend because my dear Auntie Lucy is recovering from her sickness. My trips to Quezon City will only stop as soon as she's fully recovered and ready to come back home in Calamba.

I'm sad because she's not staying here (in Calamba), even if it's only temporary. The house seems empty without her. It's like something is missing. I miss her, really. She's like my mother because I grew up with her. Auntie Sari always tells me that I need not to worry because she's going to be fine...that she's going back to her old self--- the healthy and cheerful Auntie Lucy.

I'm thankful to those people who pray hard for her recovery. The latest news that I heard is that she's gaining appetite. That's good news for me.
Anyway, before I end this entry, the band Hale (composed of Champ, Sheldon, Roll and Omni) will perform on our Family Day on the eleventh day of February. If you're interested to watch them, you are invited to come. Thank you. =)

*I wish Spongecola will perform too, but they are not...sad.*

*Advance Happy Valentines!!!*

How I Wish...

I have wishes that I want to come true. Yes, I do hope they will. These wishes give me hope, so I could fulfill my dreams. Here are some of my wishes:
***
* I wish that my dear Auntie Lucy will recover as soon as possible from her sickness. Honestly, I miss her very much. I always look forward to visiting her in Manila every weekend. Whoever reads this blog, please help me pray for her...thank you.
* I wish that my DLSU and UST reports won't have conflicts. It is my dream to study in DLSU to pursue my early childhood education course. On the other hand, I also want to pursue my undergraduate degree in Biology because it's Biology. It's not just any course..it's Biology, people! Waaa...Biology!!!
*I wish that God will help me to make the right decisions.
* I wish that my last two months in St. Scho will be much better. I'm actually really enjoying the company of my classmates. I love them. =)
* I wish that my grades are the same as last quarter. I have this funny feeling that they become lower this third quarter. I hope I'm wrong, really.
* I wish that the candidates for the next May elections will really do their plans for our country, whatever they are and not just keep on promising. Our country needs statesmen (by the way, not politician) who are responsible and willing to change the status of the country. (Wow! Haha)
* I wish to find and buy an original DVD of Princess Hours...haha...
* I wish to see Spongecola again and again and again and again and again and again and again. =)
* I wish to be a good writer...hahaha....
* Lastly, I wish that my dreams will come true!!!
* I wish you all the best Ms. Whenn... Happy Birthday!!! =)
