i could really use a time turner right now.
i went to this seminar-workshop for campus writers today, and i'm feeling traumatized.
gahd, today was horrible. it started last night when i had to sleep like super super late to write an article for the paper so that i'd be able to go to the freaking seminar, and then i find out that this person and that can't help with making the scrapbook. on top of that, while i was thinking all that through, mr. buga[speaker who smoked around 5 sticks in front of us today] asks us how we felt and to actually write it down in 10 minutes. major writer's block.
then we were asked to do an article for 30 minutes naman, and the theme was "how to alleviate poverty as campus journalists", or something like that so i did an article and i didn't want to rewrite and edit it cause i was too sleepy, so i just shoved it in my bag while reading a series of unfortunate events from this girl i met from our school. her name was ella santolaja, i think.. and it was so nice of her to let me borrow her book. anyway, after this interview we had on TNHS's prefect of discipline where i asked a lot of questions and wasn't able to take down any notes, mr. buga said that the high school students did a pretty good job with the article, except for 7 people who wrote editorial-like articles, and gave advices and stuff. and i was like, screw you, manong. you asked us to alleviate freaking poverty..how can we not give advice?! i don't even care about poverty, damnit. i'm more of a pop-culture type. so when we had to make this profile on the prefect, i was pretty excited cause during the interview i was already formulating my article and all, but then i got lazy. FUDGE.
oh well. i want to join photo journ., but there's this voice at the back of my head saying i'm not taking this seriously. well i am. i've learned a lot today, and my biggest problem is that i hate writing under pressure and that i like to procrastinate. a recipe for disaster. idk what to do tomorrow. after the seminar i'll be in school from 4pm-4am cause we're having this vocation jamboree thingy, and i refuse to pass this one up. no matter how hectic my schedule is.
no. have you ever had that feeling when you have so much to do and you have no idea what to do first, you just sit there? that's exactly how i'm feeling now. good luck to me. :D

so i just got back from our practice for the sabayang pagbigkas. yeah, i totally thought i could escape those stupid costumes from buwan ng wika, but nooo. those who didn't join have to do this now cause it's a project. oh, please. so yeah. i just got back and i turned on the computer and just put the speakers on max. this is the perfect scene after a looong day. ice-cold water, speakers turned up so loud and music. what's on repeat?
the past few days have been, boring. i was sick all weekend so i wasn't able to come to YFC's Rock On, and I tried to read the dictionary. Yes kids, read. Not scan. I just hated having to check it out every now and then when i'm reading. Maybe after this i'd be able to finally read a classic and my money won't be wasted on Wuthering Heights and a Tale of Two Cities. :D

dusty.
so i just came from Rigel's. his house is at Baras, btw. And i gotta tell you, there was plenty of it. We had so much fun there, picking on their rambutan tree, trashing shariah, playing dart with Sha's face as the target. lolz. of course I was kidding about the last part. But basically we just celebrated finally beating that lying, evil, conniving traitor. [idc if that bit was redundant.]
and everyone agreed that Ray deserved to be the SSC President, that I should have been the school paper's EIC[no joke ppl], that Elcid doesn't deserve his 90.11 grade on homeroom, that Janilyne-Bruce's soulmate, should never get played by Arnem and that Anna should use Panoxyl if she wants to get this HUGE scar I have on my chin. I srsly want to kill myself right now. Gah, why did I have to use ProActiv and then Panoxyl? why, oh why did I have to experiment with my face last night?
His house was soo far away, and we thought we should walk til Tacurong so that I'd lose weight daw since I didn't come with them to go jogging this morning cause I thought only the couples were going. lulz. So we walked and walked, and then we decided to just ride the effing trikes that came for us. When we got to Tactown, our hair and their jeans were soo dusty. Christian's hair was like a grandfather's and Anna had to make pagpag her jeans. You could literally see the little dust particles coming out of her jeans. lulz
Our exam will be on the 16th and 17th. How about you guys?
gtg, Im'ma go and shower now...and make a collage about supply and demand equilibrium.

You have to take risks..We will only understand the miracle of life fully when we allow the unexpected to happen.
the results are in. or is out the proper term? lulz.
anywayy, ranking 29th in class means:
religion - 90.37
filipino - 88.30
english - 88.45
trig - 88.85
physics - 90.11 (lol wth ikr!)
economics - 87.40
computer - 92.20
pehm - 89.62
homeroom - 86.57
= 89
funny. i had this secret, secret hope that i would get higher than that.
so Rigel ranked 1st with extra-curricular points, 2nd without points and Ray ranked 2nd with points and 1st without points. Paul ranked 3rd and Shariah got 4th-with points, too. Without points? she got 6th. funny, cause whenever she talked about the top 10, she's like, "it's okay if i don't study, i'd still get first naman since i have been 1st for the past 3 years." and just a couple of days before convocation, we find out that they're using the "back to zero" method. haha. was that a slap on her face, or what?!
ok. imma stop trashing her now. Rigel and I are friends now, and we have a little group called epals. there's Ray, PM, Rigel, Aleah and me. and Aleah and I made Rigel promise that if he became top of the class, he'll treat us. After the convocation everyone else wanted him to treat them, so we decided to have lunch tomorrow at his place. fun! (:

can't think of a title.
"Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity."
1 Timothy 4:12
so the play's over. now we have to make the scrap book for the play. i already pictured out how it's gonna look, now I have to figure out how the heck I'm suppose to make recycled paper with all those leaves and such, because I refuse to use colored paper. ew.
back to the play. it was an epic failure. everyone messed up, but still. my classmates thought it could have been better, if the props director helped-which he didn't do. ass. It was horrible because we were so unprepared, and no one would let us borrow our stuff. it was all so craptastic that i just broke down and cry. err. anyway, after the play i borrowed Flery's curling iron and tried to curl my hair, but it would not hold. no idea why. :( so i decided to just flat iron it and it was awesome. haha. even my friends told me. o, ha. i'm thinking of having it relaxed. ;)
the scrapbook is gonna be awesome. I'll make sure of that.
last friday night we had our youth camp, and i actually went to Siena to talk RD, Yssa, Inna, Darlene and Hannah into coming, and luckily they all said yes. but then I called Yssa, and she couldn't come cause of her father and all, and then Inna said she couldn't come too, so yeah. I wanted so bad to see her, but i honestly wasn't THAT disappointed. cause i knew it was better that way cause I didn't want her to be all OP with the NDTC people.
So i got to Oasis with RD-we sneaked out. How? we pretended that we were meeting other people that were going to Oasis at my place, but we were actually not. we just got a public tricycle and got there. So you're probably thinking that i'm a bad person for having RD lie about that just so she could go to the Youth Camp-but nooo. that was her idea. lolz.
anyway. yssa came on the second night and left early morning while I was still asleep, but i'm glad she came though. RD was gone for almost have the camp cause of all those practices she had in her school, but at least she was there for all the important parts. We only had 33 participants, about have of last year's 60+ but Valerie said if we'd get more participants, we'd be able to have a second camp. *crosses fingers.
btw, you know that Superferry 9 that sinked? Well, that was the ship we went on to Cebu. weird. I still have the ticket.haha
super bored. excuse my ultra boring post. in the mean time, check out my new lss. love the song, not the movie. haha.

To my favorite teacher
Who told me never give up
To my 5th grade crush
Who I thought I really loved
To the guys I missed
And the girls we kissed
Where are you now?
To my ex-best friends
Don't know how we grew apart
To my favorite band
And sing-alongs in my car
To the face I see
In my memories
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Cause I'm thinking of you
You showed me how
How to live like I do
If it wasn't for you
I would never be who I am
To my first girlfriend
I thought for sure was the one
To my last girlfriend
Sorry that I screwed it up
To the ones I loved
But didn't show it enough
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Cause I'm thinking of you
You showed me how
How to live like I do
If it wasn't for you
I would never be who I am
And I'll never see those days again
And things will never be that way again
But that's just how it goes
People change, but I know
I won't forget you
To the ones who cared
And who were there from the start
To the love that left
and took a piece of my heart
To the few who'd swear
I'd never go anywhere
Where are you now?
Where are you now?
Cause I'm thinking of you
You showed me how
How to live like I do
If it wasn't for you
I would never be who I am
If it wasn't for you
I would never be who I am
If it wasn't for you
I'd be nothing
Where are you now?
