It's 12 midnight...of Halloween. OH NOEES. :))

Both my siblings are on sem break. Oh well. Atleast half day tomorrow. Unlike my beloved law-abiding friends, I am going to school tomorrow, because my parents won't let me miss school. I find it so amusing that Sam's parents won't let her go to school, while my mine wouldn't even hear my reasons on why I can not go to school tomorrow.

I spent my night doing the STR spreadsheet with the mean deviations, etc. for Strontium, proving Heron's formula and doing what was left of the pair seatwork in math. YES. I shall be a better student from now on.

I hope I'm able to go trick or treating with Joe and company tomorrow.
*crosses fingers*

Happy Halloween!
:D






Before the school year, I made resolutions. I promised myself I'd do a follow-up in the middle of the year to check if I had been a good student.

Here it goes:







The fire caused more damage than I thought it did. :|

NO SHB CLASSROOMS!

The "solution"?

-Violating the ASTB's capacity and holding classes in places i.e. The Gym, The Dorms and the Grandstand. Sobrang WTF. Very conducive to learning. Great job, fire.

I know it's unscholarly (damn i hate that word) to complain, rant and shit, but UGGGGGGH kakainis talaga. If the building fails the tests DPWH conducts, we have to live like this for the rest of the school year.

Joy. :|








The retreat was awesome. At first, I had my doubts on whether it would turn out to be spiritually/emotionally touching. But after confessing (using that Opus Dei pamphlet), having a one on one talk with Kuya Facilitator and Palanca Night, I must say -- retreat was, for lack of a Non-Ynigo term, beautiful.

I'd rather not exhaust myself further right now, so I won't narrate the events...for now (or ever). Haha. Basta. I'm going to try to be a better person from now on.

EDIT: RETREAT PHOTOS ARE NOW POSTED IN MY MULTIPLY

I wouldn't be surprised f you had read the title and had gone all WTF. Srsly. That was how I reacted when I first heard the term.

Six-Sing - Six students who will be going to Singapore on January to participate in the Hwa Chong Institution- PSHS exchange program. A.K.A. Neon Antonio, Gian Dapul, Mika Perlada, Nico Reyes, Juan Senga and Tutti Tanchuling.

Get it, get it? :> :> :> Don't blame me. It was Ma'am Bawagan who coined the term. I'm just being a bitch obedient.

Moving on...

We, Six-Sing, had a mini field trip today. We familiarized ourselves with the places where we are to bring the Singaporeans when they arrive on November. Our first stop was Bantayog ng mga Bayani. The exhibits were pretty cool, actually. I was really interested to learn more about Martial Law. Oh, and Ma'am Bawagan shared a big secret of hers. Super shocking. O: After that, we went to the Jorge Vargas museum in UP that housed a few of Amorsolo's works. An interesting part of the exhibit was the origami section, which contained a step by step guide on how to make paper cranes. Nico fail. :| 'Nuff said. UGH.

We dropped by McDo after, then went back to Pisay. Because Renz had to take so long, I decided to try something I've never done before....commute home--alone. :O It took me two jeepney rides, one tricycle ride, lots of walking and 26 pesos to reach my house. I was so proud of myself. I even took pictures, despite the possibility of getting mugged. Feeling ko kasi walang maniniwala eh. =))

I felt so accomplished as I rang the dorbell. So. Yeah. Be proud of me.






Nico-Sam-Arriele Reunion today.
[Haha. I shall not expound. ]

I woke up at 10:00 AM today, and left the house at around 10:30. At about 11, I was already at Sam's house with what Edlen claims to be the best chicken fingers she has ever tasted. Good job, Mom. When I arrived, Big Edlen was still dead asleep. Too bad she banned Samantha from letting me in their room. I missed one BIG photo-op.

I shall narrate in bullets, as not to force myself to be coherent. I am sleepy. :|

• We watched Zoey 101 Season 3. =)) Sam loved Quin's bra airbag. =))
• Edlen woke up, and gave me a little notebook filled with doodles about my potential prom date.
  
• We ate some chicken fingers. Mimi was a good hostess. She served iced tea. [PWEDE NA MAG-ASAWA.]
• Coco = Edlen's future self
  
• Arriele arrived.
  
• We ate lunch. [Tacos and Chicken Fingers]
• Horse Jokes were made.
  
• We played Catch Phrase. =)) EDLEN ALMOST POUNDED SAMANTHA BECAUSE OF SUPERMAN.
  
• We played more Catch Phrase; however, Sam still sucked at making pahula.
  
• Sam sucked at Fouling Pirates.
  
• Buckaroo almost gave Arriele a heart attack.
  
• We played Rockband.
  
• We tried to watch Zoey 101 Season 4, but it sucked so much, and I kept making Jamie-Lynn preggy jokes.
  
• We played Scene It, and the Sanchez Sisters scared us...sersiously. DISNEY FREAKS.
• We played that word game thingy.
  
• We did not play word boggle. LOSER KA ARRIELE.
  
• I doodled on SamnEdlen's wall.
• We ate meatballs. AND THE BEST FRIED RICE EVER.
  
• I went home.
  

Grabe. Today was so fun. What a way to make up for lost time. I love you guys. :)

...you too, Edlen.






No. This post has nothing to do with Australia. By down under, I mean deep deep deep down -- hell. This has been the worst perio week by far. Imagine the stress of hell and perio weeks consolidated into one big ball of stress. OH THE PAIN. :| The last day of exams is usually really relieving because by the end of the day, all the stress is gone. Imagine this-- just after you have taken seven mentally tormenting exams, you have 3 Long Tests to be taken, 3 poems to be written and a baby book to be made within the next two days. GAAAAAAAAAAHD. I should have taken advantage of that long break. It's toooo laaaate. :|

Haaaaay. All this shall pass. By tomorrow (or the end of this day, rather), we have a one week break, which will be followed by torture again, but what the hell -- it's a break, nonetheless.

The only requirement I've enjoyed so far was the health baby book. Our baby's name is Blair Catherine B. Gates (BCBG). She's a fabulous little girl who studies in *drumroll please* Poveda. Haha. We used Suri Cruise's pictures. She is one fabulous baby, don't you think? Haha. Look at the post below to see the stuff I had to layout for our group's baby book.













I hate Biology.
No matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to study the damn subject.

To make things worse--

It has more items than last quarter’s and is not solely multiple choice

I died. :|

Shit talaga. Screw bio.






WOW. I've been so unproductive over the break. :)

Today, we met with the administrators from the Hwa-Chong Institution. The meeting was funny, though I had difficulty understanding the principal's English. OH NOOOOOES. I'm scared. What if most of them speak that way? They're going to think I'm retarded, because I'd probably end up nodding to every single thing they say. LOL. Singapore English = Singlish (Eusebio, 2008).

After the intruductions and contract singing, we gave them a tour of the dorms. Yey me. Nafulfill ko na rin ung life long dream ko na makapasok sa dorm. I saw Isa's room. :)) Grabe, ang linis ng banyo ng GRHM. I wasn't able to see the BRHM anymore because the driver had to fetch Renz from Ateneo na. Oh well. I am so going to the open house next year.

Before he went to Ateneo, I made Kuya Dindo drop me off at TriNoma because I had to buy our gift for Mommy Je. It took me so long to choose, dammit. I went home, then went back to TriNoma for the dinner thingy at Heaven n' Eggs. I had Fillet Mignon, and shared Dr. Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham. GRABE. Ang saraaaap. Shit. Green eggs rule. =)) Kailangan ko magshare ng picture--
I know it looks gross, but shiiiiiiiiiiiiit -- I could get a room with this. Or maybe not. =)) Yuck. Green egg-fetish. =)) :-&

Moving on...

It's so cool that the third years have afternoon exams this quarter. And Strontium gets the ASTB AVR to boot. :> :> :> I think the school's starting to like us na. :> :> :>

Haha. Enough slacking.
*GOOD STUDENT MODE -- ON*
