The QTs are finally friggin' over. Thank God!
Let's describe all of them in order!

ECONOMICS
It was relatively easy. Relatively. I think I did well enough. :D

ENGLISH
Well, we didn't really have one, but making that darned Tabblo counts.
I may have been one of the last to submit (30 minutes before the deadline. Hehe!), but I'm happy with my "creation." Hihihi. :D Do take a look at it:

CLE
It was pretty okay. If I can say, second easiest one. :D I enjoyed writing my "love letter" and my last essay. Wahaha. Oh Vanessa... how I wish!

FILIPINO
It was okay. Some of the questions were kind of vague--especially the first part,--but it was pretty easy to some extent. :D

MATH
Grabe! I can feel perfection. Wahaha. I kid. But really, it was easy.
I'm just sort of doubtful--I always answer Math LTs and QTs, saying it was easy and ending up with a couple of careless mistakes. But seriously, I was able to review the whole test properly. I can feel it... :D

Hmmm...
Noticed something different? Where's science? Gasp!

SCIENCE
:(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
I don't want to graduate without honors. :(( And my quizzes are already just 85%.
Waaaaaaa. To think I enjoyed Science this quarter.
I'm so worried, Im'ma use a Multiply smiley--or should I say frowney:


At present, I'm fine though. :D
Today was celebrate-the-end-of-QTs-by-eating-out day. Well, I don't think I've done that before. But I guess I'll be doing it a couple of times this year. ;)

Ate in T-Boy with a couple of FXers.
Yum. It's been a long time since my last Japanese dish.


In other news, this quarter's going to be exciting. ;)

FX is really looking up. We finally have a play--and not just any play, a MUSICAL! :D
I'm starting to "get to know" the new members. :D Oli is sort of looking better... sort of...

I'm sort of "refreshed" and ready for the second quarter.
I'll really have to step it up though. Resolutions, resolutions.
I should really fix my life up now. :P


Anyhow... this quarter's been so hectic.
I miss going out. I miss my weekly summer gimiks. Hehehe.
I miss my summer peeps. I miss my ArtsWork peeps.
Sigh.



Well, one quarter over.
It's quite sad. I just realized: that was my last first quarter ever.
And there're only three quarters left. :(



* - I had to take a personality test for the EM course of UA&P. And I'm not lying about that question. Hehehe. I took the test last Sunday. ;) Really easy.

Killing Me Softly with His Song, Telling My Whole Life with Hades Words

Monday, August 10 at 4:41 PM
[Okay. I have to do this fast just in case the internet gets cut off again. o.O]

So today was my speech day. Ack.
For the uninformed, fourth years must choose a Greek myth character and make a persuasive speech to make people worship him/her.

I chose Hades.

Gahd. That was nerve-wracking.
I've really outdone myself in terms of FX--no practice at all! Beat that, Tulo!
Boys and girls, do not follow me! It's deadly.

Here's the story.
My internet, as I found out late last night, is a piece of crap.
I was out all day in my cousin's house where wifi was crap. When I got home I had problems connecting, but I didn't think there was something wrong. At around past 11, I finally decided to call PLDT. No dial tone. Fark.

So I ended up going to the corner internet shop filled with kanto game freaks at around past 11 just to retrieve my essay from Multiply. o.O
(and to inform the world of my sad internet-less state.)

So late at night, I was working on my speech.
When I ended, it was too late for me to practice, so I just retired...

The speech. I already had an idea of what I wanted to do. Something like how I would've done Archie Costello if I had the role in Chocolate War. Subtle yet scary. Throw in some evil grins.
But but but. I had no practice whatsoever, which was why I was really scared. I hadn't even memorized it that well yet.

Onto today, I still had no real time to practice.
Instead, I just "prepared." I highlighted (Stabilo) my fingernails to make it look rotten, and I colored two of them with Sharpee. I also had red veins and blood on my hands care of Staedtler. Hehehe.

I was shaking when English class came.
I couldn't grade other s like I normally did 'cause I was too nervous. Haha. Also, I was preoccupied with making Post-It cheats. (What? My fourth product placement? Hahaha.)

I thought the bell would save me, but it didn't. I had to go on through lunch period. o.O

Anyhow, I took off my glasses (it's been a habit for me not to wear them when I act) and went on. Stupid. I couldn't read them. Fark useless eyesight.

I was forgetting lines. A lot of ad lib all the way. Wahaha.
And in my nervous state, I didn't really get to do it the way I wanted to. Not much evil grins, and I shouted more than I needed to. Needed practice.

Anyhow. It's done.
I was shaking. Aftershocks.

I good comments, so I guess I did well enough.
But I was short of breath and still in disbelief. I pulled it off.

Never again. o.O
PRACTICE! PRACTICE!

**woah. it's been a long time since I've blogged a narrative. hahaha.

Randomness in Numbers

Sunday, August 9 at 5:39 PM
(This blog was written yesterday night... but, but, but Multiply crashed. o.O So now, it's here. :D Imagine you were reading it the night before. Haha!)

Today was... umm... FUN! and NOT! at the same time.
Hehehe.

In a random order and in a random style:

ONE
Who likes going to school on Saturdays? Not Ia.

TWO
Math and Science quizzes. T.T
My mind isn't programmed to work for quizzes during the weekend.
Careless mistakes. Ack.

THREE
Siomai. Yumm.

FOUR
I got this feeling of productivity today. I dunno.
Was I really?

FIVE
I have definitely proved I am a Physics person. (Sorry, Mr. Chua. Hehehe.)
Even if my quizzes aren't exactly frame-worthy. Lol.
Well, at least I'm not that grade-conscious? o.O

SIX
I am definitely a Trigo person. Hehehe.
Next to that, a Geom person.
I wonder if this will be of any help in Management. Lol.

SEVEN
Awkward moment with the new Chinese teacher involving my cold oatmeal.
Well, at least he's friendly. Hahaha.

EIGHT
Triquetra love! Bonding time. :D
...and dude, don't blame yourself for it. :D

NINE
Charmee! I miss you guys.
If only I didn't have a deadline to work on...
September again! :D You know what's happening... ;)

NINE.FIVE
Risa! KJ! You were already going to go... :|
If not for us, for your cousin! Ahahaha!
Kidding. We still love you! :D

TEN
ArtsWork!
We seriously need to have a full reunion.

ELEVEN
Dxhibit rocks!
Go flint.chris.ariel.babsi.albert.weston.tim.harveen.coby.chesca.camille.and all the other dancers that I can't possibly all name. :D
You guys were amazing! CONGRATS!

TWELVE
My afternoon was practically ruined. Bleh.

THIRTEEN
Chicken McNuggets and Twister Fries <3
I saw Grimace today! Awwww!

FOURTEENTH
I went home early from Dxhibit to finish my English essays. Hehehe.
Sorry. :D

FIFTEENTH
I love my new Google Chrome theme. :D

SIXTEENTH
I enjoy reading iamsuperbianca's tweets. Hehehe.

SEVENTEENTH
Favoritism... Favoritism... :P

EIGHTEENTH
I need rest. Goodnight! :D

LAST but not the least...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOTHER! :D
(No not my mom, mother. And not my oedipus mother. And not that other mother either.)

Flooded Streets

Thursday, August 6 at 5:02 PM
I came home today at 4pm.
Quite early compared to the usual 5pm.

But then... dismissal was at 1:15. o.O

Add to the late busmate *ehemehem*, traffic was hell.
So getting home late was inevitable.

It's one of those days you'd miss having Mrs. Ocampo as your busmate.
(She sermonizes latecomers. Hehehe. Oh, Richter. Hehehe.)

In other news, the weather has been beautiful. Really cold and windy. :D
I am--though impossible--hoping classes tomorrow get suspended. Hehehe.

And the cat said meow...

Sunday, August 2 at 9:38 AM
Okay. Two more schools to go... (No, the other isn't La Salle. :P )

So I slept really early Friday night. Supposedly at 9PM... but I think I got too distracted. All I know is that it's abnormal for me to be in bed at whatever time that was. Hehe.

I came home tired from FX. Ate dinner. Wished people good luck. Plurked. Bathed. Slept. Hehehe.

Anyhow. I woke up at around 4:30am. (Again, abnormal.)

We passed by 7/11. I got some doughnuts. Hehehe. (Just like when I took the SAT.)
I was reviewing in the car. Science. All those periodic whatever stuff. (Didn't help. It didn't really appear in the test.)

So when we got there, there were a million people. Fine, I exaggerate.
The parents seem more excited than the students, but that's expected. I mean, just inside the house, the parent is more excited than the student. (Hay. Alumnus.)

I got the same feeling as when I took the SAT. Nervous, but not really.
Actually, the feeling lingered more during the SATs. Probably because the line was longer. Hehe.

So I got there. The place was... umm. Yeah.
What am I expecting? Hehehe.

The only person I knew in the room was Robert Sanchez. Hehehe.
Everybody else looked like really intimidating people.

The test paper was handed out.
Proctor reading it with a think Filipino accent. Made me want to volunteer to read. Hehehe.

For the most part, it was easy. (English was like DUH!)
Two problems though.

1. MATH!
I didn't finish it. In fact, I didn't answer half the math test. Waaaa. That makes for 10% of the whole UPCAT. Argh.

I blame Kim. Made me too complacent saying we had a lot of time and stuff. I was eating during the math test. I found myself taking too much time on the problem solving thing. It was quite disappointing because I wasn't able to head on to the geometry part. Agh.

2. Reading Comprehension.
My mind was practically screaming "AYOKO NAAAAAA!"
So if I get a lot of mistakes, it's because I lost concentration. Too sabaw.

Everything else was quite easy. :D


Anyhow, lesson learned.
I really have to practice for the ACET. Math. Math. Math.

It's a good thing I'm not really inclined to going to UP. Hehe.


Well. I got so sabaw. I slept through the whole afternoon. Hehehe.

I woke up, and went to tutor.
While doing whatever, the hopeless romantic in me suddenly thought of my dream romantic situation. Hehehe. But I don't want to talk about it here. Might get spoiled. Hehehe.
Keywords though: New York. Waiting. ;)

I also thought of other stuff, but none of them seem to want to be remembered. Hehehe.

Moving on. Watched Public Enemies at Shang.
Review soon. Hehehe. All I can say is I enjoyed it.
(No one seems to watch/enjoy movies the way that I do. Hehehe.)

Today has been very lazy, but I'm not complaining. :D
(It feels as though it's been a long time since I last blogged. Lol.)
