No school again. Wow, second time around, eh? Actually, (I believe) this'll be the last day for the no-classes thing. I mean, everything's ended-- hopefully. So yeah, it's *drumroll* back to reality once again-- back to the school life. Aww. I'm going to miss the breaks though. You know, sleeping late and doing nothing at all. To top it all, the homeworks to be given are delayed. :P Seriously, I'm not even finished with everything. Yup, even though we had a 4-day weekend. So lazy-- I know.

Oops.. still have to do a lot more things. Dreadful experience-- no offense. Grade 7's getting on my nerve. I'm just sooooooo lazy and tired. Phff. `Til then. :P


Before it gets off my brain :P

Yesterday, I was so innocent about the whole there-should-be-no-classes thing. Really, I didn't know anything about it. Well, not until Angel kept on repeating, "Aaaaaahhhh.. uwi na tayo!" Oh, just imagine how clueless I was. I couldn't relate to anything about it at all. Embarrassing-- sorta. Also, the others kept on asking, "may classes ba?" And I, thinking that we're all in school anyway (not really ALL.. but you know, atleast a handful were present), gave those people a positive answer. I mean, why the heck would I go on saying "no" when, all the while, I don't really know what's happening. Funny. NOT. Well, actually we were adviced to just attend the 7am mass. Yeah, it just lasted for thirty minutes.. atleast thirty minutes. Then, we had the usual morning talk and the awards were given out. By then, I noticed that we were somewhat exceeding the time given to us. I mean, we were to be finished by 7:40 but in the clock it was 7:45 then it became 7:50 then 7:55. That gave me a ting. Classes were cancelled. Yup, even if some where in school already.

For the first time, I didn't rejoice about this matter. I know I should since I'll be getting the whole day off and it'll give me a lot of additional time to prepare for Monday's terror, but due to the current situation of our country, it only brought me 'the chills.' (I know it may be funny now that I'm talking about our country and all.. yeah, you go on and laugh your heart out since you'll be reading the ugliest effing post ever. :P No.. I'm not kidding. I'm not really any good at this, but because I'm so pissed off with all that's happening.. here it goes..)

I don't really know the exact reason why we had the classes cut off. Is it due to the Edsa Anniversary or the mere fact that there's coup de etat and our country's not stable? Now.. do tell me which of these.

Really, I'm just pissed off with the current goings-on of our country. I mean, aren't you tired of hearing all these news? C'mon, I'm sure you guys are fed up too. :P

*sigh*

I don't really like the idea of another martial law. I, for one, have not experienced it but as to how my parents told me about it, it just scared me. Another martial law would DO NO GOOD AT ALL, it just adds burden to everyone else. Yes, everyone else. Every Filipino is involved. Just imagine how excruciatingly devastating our country is. First, we had this problem in corruption, then this. People are trying to overthrow the government and are doing rallies elsewhere. I don't know what the president's doing about it at all. And for one, I've heard about people who are anti-gloria being captured. Scary, huh? I think she's following Marcos' footsteps. Oh c'mon, not another one. Sh*t.

It's upsetting to know all about this and that. All the news being reported are about the rallies and all. Argh this effing situation. Please, please, I'm so fed up. I mean, c'mon.. how about the future we are facing?

I'm dying to end all these drama, you know. Philippines will have no future with its current situation. Love is what lacks. We do not love one another; we do not love the Philippines.

I just wish we'll all have the guts to stand up for what we believe in. I just wish we really do.. I don't really like idea of a replay of what happened 20 years ago.

*sigh*

All we can really do is pray, pray, pray.

I know that I have been quite serious lately. Yeah, probably because of the fact that graduation's up soon and all these pain-in-the-brain schoolworks will be OVEEEEER. Yupyup.. it's going to be over real soon.

Give it just a little more time..

So far, I'm happy with my results. Yeah baby! See, I told you.. not studying for an exam really helps.. A LOT! I'm not kidding. Well, atleast (for now) it works for me.

There's nothing much to blab about but the mere fact that I have been dumped once again in a pile of homeworks yesterday. Phew. I haven't finished all of it.. I'm still not in the mood to do so. Bratty-- I know.

I won't really be that much descriptive anymore. I'm wanting to give proper attention to school since it's 2 more weeks and we're signing off. I'm really going to miss every second of this. It has been part of my life already. *sigh* Soon, it's going to be "bye-bye gradeschool, hello highschool." Awww. :'(

I will just be sharing some snapshots of my sisters and me. Ooooooh.. you're going to see the craziest looking person ever. :P

All the practices have soon come to an end. Yup, it was our Confirmation Day.

Well, nothing really spectacular happened. Only the mere fact that I was being confirmed with my friends and of course, the presence of my parents and godparents made me feel contented. Indeed, I have a life beyond all my material possessions. I just do not take the chance of seeing its true value in my life.

No, I'm not going to ephasize on this any more. The fact that I'm now a Confirmed Christian is enough. I'm just going to share some snapshots of me (and of course my friends) during the said event.


That's Iya and Me. Hahaha. So desperate.


L-R: Stacey, TitaNinang Gina, Me, Iya


Stolen.. `di ba halata??? (Courtesy of my Mom:P)

*****

After the celebration, Iya and I went to Shang. Well, not really right after the event.. we met some time after lunch. Hannah wasn't able to come, and Kay too so it was just the two of us all the way.

On the way, I was friggin pissed off with the traffic jam. (Well, if our government officials are that rich, why don't they just spend it on the improvement of simple things such as this?) It took us (I guess) more than an hour just to go to the mall. We were stranded somewhere in Junction then in Pasig. Ugh. How I hate traffic. It's just so.. irritating, annoying. Phff.

We arrived at around 2:45. Iya was SO there already, waiting in Starbucks. So, I rushed on going down (that is, after waiting for my Mom to go out of the washroom) and met with her there.

Actually, at first we decided to watch Pink Panther. But due to the lack of time (since the showing then was at 3:00), we decided to just roam around and do a lil bit of shopping.

Wow. I was really shocked when we were left by our parents alone. I mean, it was just the two of us. Yup.. no alalays. :P It was fun, actually. We were like lost kids. Hahaha. We went around like what I said and checked out some shops but sadly, Iya wasn't able to get that much. Ha! Too much for a cute comb, huh Iya? :P

Anyways, we only had an hour for the both of us to shop since my Dad got us tickets for Fun with Dick and Jane. So yeah, we kinda rushed things. Funny. SO NOT.

Well, it was a bit tiring.. you know, running all the way over here to all the way over there, and coming back. Ack. My legs are aching. :P Gaaad.. it has grown muscular. Eeewww.. You wish!

Oh yeah, before I forget.. Iya and I dropped by Kids of Bayo (Oh now, do you get how desperate we are of being lil kiddos again?) and she tried on this shirt.. But aww, she didn't get it. She was even like, Eh.. anlaki ng braso ko. Hahaha. But honestly, my opinion.. it was okay. Wanna see?


So.. What do you guys say, eh?

Saturday, February 18, 2006



Actually, going to David's Salon wasn't part of my itinerary. Not for today atleast. But after my Mom's convicing powers, I suddenly gave it. Really, I never thought that I needed a haircut. Not until my Mom told me so, which is just hours ago. So OBVIOUSLY I have a NEW dreadful look. :P Ack. To my fellow confirmands, don't talk about my new haircut. Thanks. (Just pretend there's nothing new about my hair. It doesn't really look appealing to me. Not kidding.)

Yeah, today was the last day for Confirmation practice. Fun? Not really. Sir Ruel got mad every now and then, but he cooled off easily; probably because of the fact that the sitio children were around. Wait, what does it really have to do with his mood? Er.. I'm clueless.

I can't believe that we'll be having our confirmation tomorrow. I'm not yet ready.. I need time! Oops.. too late to back out. :P Nevermind. I hope everything just goes well. Wish us luck. :P

Friday, February 17, 2006



Well today has been teeerrriffic. I mean, c'mon, when does Sir Ruel give breaks every after (hmm.. let's say) 45 mins? I guess he was just in a good mood. More or less, he'd given off enough puffs from his ears yesterday (when I was absent:P), so he doesn't have the energy to get that mad today. Like I said, he was in a terribly good mood. (Get it? Stop.. I don't get what I'm saying either. :P)

As for today, we had a dry run for both the mass and the confirmation proper itself. I was funny, really funny because I looked so innocent considering the fact that I do not know what to do and when to do things. Mara just kept on bugging me and giving me signals on things to do. Well I guess I was lucky to have her as a seatmate then.

I was suppose to be one of the thirty dancers of Humayo't Ihayag but the mere fact that I was absent yesterday caused me to back out. Yup, my own decision. Wondering why.. First of all, I don't have a passion in dancing; in other words I suck at it. Secondly, I missed too much already since I was absent yesterday. So that means, I have a lot of catching up to do. Terrible? Not really.

Actually, I wasn't to go to school yet since my eye infection a.k.a. swollen eye isn't fully recovered. Gross-- I know. :P But what can I do.. I felt that I missed a lot already, so it's best that I get to go to school as soon as possible and I don't want to look odd infront of the others.

Anyways, Confirmation is yet 2 days from now. We're going to have another day of practice. Phff. Tiring. I just wish Sir Ruel will be in a good mood again. :P



Footnotes:

• added some boarders and edited the scroll bar. It isn't much of an accomplishment though, but I'm happy for what I've made. :P Contented at that.

Nu-uh. I'm not going to talk about Valentine's Day because OBVIOUSLY I've got nothing to write about it if I choose it as my topic for this particular post. So anyways, put aside Valentine's Day first. I don't care that much about it. Atleast for now.

Teacher's Day. Ergh. Don't talk about it. Well, atleast I learned my lesson. Dont.ever.run.as.a.student.council.officer.ever.again. (specially P.R.O.) Poo, I thought it'll be the easiest position but as for this case, it was proven that my theory was wrong. SO WRONG.

So many bad things happened to me today. Unbelievably, it's karma. Karma on the exact day, Valentine's Day. Oh how karma does love me. Phff. 1) Had to come in gala uniform, and that means HIGH HEELS. Eek. So dreadful; 2) High heels killed my feet, no kidding; 3) One of the hosts (No script.. Adlib.. scary); 4) Had to wear gown with HIGH HEELS again; 5) Late dismissal (later than what was stated, so my busmates waited for a loooooong time; Gee, sorry about that:)); 6) On the way home, we got bumped by a motorcycle. A careless, idiot motorcycle driver went past straight while we were on the verge of turning right. Yup.. they're on full speed. So what happened? The guy and her girlfriend (I think) was thrown off. Freaaaaky. I know.

So why does it have to happen on the same day? I don't know. As for now, I'm fed up. I need to rest. Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!

Tuesday, February 14, 2006



Oh poo. This confirmation practice surely entails a never-ending voice supply. No kidding. And even though I have a frog's voice (oh, don't look at me that way:P), I forced myself to sing those friggin high notes. Bet you'll laugh once you hear me singing.. right Mara? right Iya? Oh how I pity my seatmates for having heard such unbearable tunes and pitches. Sorry. LOL.

Heck, I know, it's Valentine's Day tomorrow. No, I don't have a date. And yeah, I.DONT.CARE. Life isn't all about boys, is it? :P

Oh gee, I almost forgot.. it's the Teacher's Day. Oh how terrible I must be in that trying-hard-to-look-like-a-prom-princess gown. Phff. Pathetic life. Ergh. But still, I'm excited to see the other JS officers wearing their own. Gowns, I mean.

*sigh*

Life can be terrible at times but sometimes it can be oh-soooo sweet. :P

First of all, thanks to Mico for bringing home an 18-inch meat lover's pizza from Yellow Cab. Sorry, wasn't able to eat it last night; it's not that I didn't want you to see me eating like a pig *snorts* (hahaha!) but my sisters and I ate Hawaiian Pizza already before dinner. So heck, we were full; stuffed at that. But thanks, really. Had it for breakfast. Yum!

Well, yesterday started off like hell. I didn't want to leave my bed and start dressing up for the event. Man, my mom kept on bugging me, whispering (or was is shouting) Kara, get up.. we're going to be late. Oh yeah, you guessed it right.. I sorta slept late the other night. Bummer. I thought I could handle this simple thing: getting up early. Ack. It was dreadful. I hated the fact that I had to wake up like on a regular school day. Why that early.. I move like a turtle every morning. No kidding. It's just a miracle that I get to finish preparing on time.

The recollection was fine (although I kinda felt sleepy in the middle of the talk). Believe it or not, there were 2 talks and it was to be an hour each. Oh just imagine how long I tried to stop my eyes from closing. :P It was good to know that atleast I didn't fall asleep. Ha! But really, I was in the verge of closing my eyes.

The event went on smoothly. Fr. Edwin was funny enough to keep me awake. But still, like what I said, it was hard for me to stop my eyes from closing. :P *blink, blink* Oh gaaad, it went on `til past 12. Ack.

In the afternoon evening, Mico went here just to drop by our Yellow Cab delivery. No, just kidding. It was his birthday then and since he can't treat me out ALONE yet, he decided to bring home an 18-inch meat lover's for me. Oh gee.. thanks!:P And yeah, even if it wasn't my OWN birthday, he got me a frame and comb. Gaaaad, are you gay? Where'd you get all these? Hahaha. Well, he told me that it's just going to be a Valentine's gift and he gave it in advance since he won't be able to go here on Tuesday. Sweet.

Well anyways, my weekend was indeed a blast. A while ago we celebrated my grandfather's birthday. Lovely. :P Ooooooh.. I can't erase the image of him singing a while ago. =)) Right nix?

Saturday, February 11, 2006



Finally, after all the schoolwork.. it's time for a break. Weekend, here I come. Oh wait, I don't think I could really make the most of it. Darn, we still have the Recollection tomorrow. Oops. But still, I'm happy to be able to breath freely after the killer week. Hey, I'm not kidding. Just imagine taking the Unit Tests this week! Man, just count how many days that is after the QT? Ack. My brains really sqeezed like hell. I don't know if if it still has the capacity to think normally; gaaaaad, I really need to rest.

I don't know why it goes like this: when it's almost the end of the schoolyear, that's where I don't give much importance to schoolwork. No, really. I'm 10x lazier this time. I mean, I know for a fact that we had our UT in Language and Reading last Thursday, and we had Math today; but what did I do.. played Sims 2 the moment I reached home. Now, can you top that? :P

But I'm actually happy with the grades I got. Wow. So, I guess that proves that I can do great in tests if I don't study. Well.. really, I'm fed up studying for tests but in the end, unnoticingly (spelling?) I failed it. (Ever felt that way?) Maybe I'll not study for tests this time. I don't care that much for my grades any more (I think).

Oh wait, here's something new old: I failed my math quiz. And here's the thing, I studied for it. Ack. Why do things have to turn the other way around, huh? Grr.. Somebody stop spinning my world. I'm so dizzy.. I don't know what to do. Argh.



Wednesday
Tough day. First of all, I had to renew my ninang. Ack. So, that means.. I had to come face to face with Sir Ruel. No offense, he was scary. Well, he was suppose to talk to me Tuesday (the day when I presented the letter about the switching of godmothers) but I guess he forgot about it. Sheesh. He wasn't in the mood the following day (Wednesday).. well we can't change it.. so I delt with it. Hahaha. We (Pau, Kay and I) were asked to xerox the form again but first, we still had to look for Selina since she has the original copy. Pau looked for her everywhere since I was with the candidates for next year's JSCAA officers; Kay, on the other hand, was looking for Pau. Oh, just imagine how dizzy we were looking for each other and panicking (spelling?) to finish this in time. Well, when we got to see each other, we decided to go to the LRC, wishing that Selina was there since she was nowhere to be found in the Grade 7 building. Well, we walked straight into the LRC to the Xerox machine guy, then the lady near the door looked at us in a scary way (no she wasn't the usual lady sitting there; she was a different one), maybe because we didn't have a slip or so.. but mind HER, it was 12:10 then, meaning it was lunch time. :P Anyways, God was so good that we found Selina near the Xerox Machine thingy filling up her form. So, we borrowed the original copy then had ours xeroxed. (gets?) Afterwards, we rushed back to the classroom to fill up the new form. This time, we had to be serious. Ack. We filled up the blanks we knew and left others unanswered. Hahaha. It wasn't finished and passed until lunch time. Sadly, there was a faculty meeting that day so Sir Ruel was in the Mini Theatre. Phff. We were forced to walk to his office (near the clinic) and we slipped the form into his window. Hahaha. Just wish he got it. :P

Thursday
We had our Reading and Language test. Hard and tricky. Hahaha. Considering that I didn't study. But, I guess I did good in Language. I'm pleased with my score. It's better this way (not studying :P) I guess. Too lazy-- I know. Well, for a fact, Reading was harder than Language. Obviously.

Friday
Got Language UT result = 98 *claps* Afterwards, had the Fire Drill. Funny. We were burning already but we're moving like turtles. Hahaha. No chance of surviving if there's a real emergency. Phff. Math test. Freaaaaaaky. But loved it. :P Dunno if I'll ace it, but I had fun calculating.. I don't really know why. I just hope I can make up to it. I mean, I failed one test. So, I wish.. atleast I can do well in this. Oh please God.. please.

Well, I'm happy all this drama-rama is over. New week ahead. *sigh* I always get fed up, don't I?


Ooooh.. before I forget about it(LOL):
Happy Birthday, Anika!

Wednesday, February 08, 2006



I can't believe that the third quarter already passed by. As if after one big 'swoosh' what was left was a report card. Yes, that scary vertical paper filled with numbers.. numbers you don't even know where you got; take HELE for instance. No offense Ms. Cora, but the grades you gave were so low. But still, I am thankful because you didn't give me a grade below 87. :P

Yeah, third quarter's already finished. We're moving on to the fourth and final quarter. Ack. I bet it'll be the most challenging; considering the fact that in a month, graduating students will be taking their Quarterly Test. Just imagine how near that is, uh? So now, the teachers are sqeezing in the quizzes and Unit Tests. I know it sounds freaky but that's just reality-- we have to face it. And more or less, cramming is the key to success cannot be avoided during these instances. I mean, behind all the piles of homeworks and projects await the tests and quizzes, ready to be filled up. Oh, how bad could that day be?

Well, my schedule's filled up. I hate to hear the fact that this week we'll be having our UT1. Dreadful-- I know. What saddens me is the mere fact that ONLY 2 weeks after the third quarter, we'll be filling up another set of papers which would require so much thinking and definitely, no guessing.

I can barely see myself marching up the stage next month. No, I'm not kidding. Grade 7's such a pain in the brain; without it, man I don't know what mess you're going to get in. Well, okay.. my grades are fine (some are terrible; some are good :P) but you never know what will happen next, right? What if all of a sudden everything turns the other way around? Now, that'll be the double "oh-no!"

I don't know if it's just my dizzy head, but really, it's like as if the world spins 2x faster this time. Every minute, every second seem to count. Oh gaaaaad, am I giving much importance to time management? *screams*

Wednesday, February 01, 2006



Well, for the past days we've been talking about Asia in our AP class. So far, I thought it'll be tormenting for us once again but proving the fact that Asia loves me and I love Asia (yes, the continent itself) made a little difference. I'm starting to like this topic. No kidding! Really. Just imagine seeing your name in the map. There are actually a lot I can boast (courtesy of my dear classmates): kara sea; ankara; and my all-time favorite, karaganda. Oh yeah, you wouldn't believe me? Man, grab an Asian map, will ya?:P C'mon, maps don't lie. They always give the right information. And for the person who named the last one I mentioned, Gee.. thanks! I really can't believe I'm popular in Asia. Eeew. Never. :P

Report Card Day's coming up. It's just days away. I'm nervous to see my grades. They're just dreadful. So dreadful. Look, I know for a fact that I'll only be having one recognition and that's in Math. Dude, I computed my grades so I'm pretty sure what to expect. I just hope I won't have a grade below 87, if so.. I'd gladly put an end to my life. :P What I really am not looking forward to seeing is my HELE grade. My gaaaaaaad, Ms Cora gives such looooooow grades. Way lower than the ground. :P Ack.

I just wish all goes well. I still want to see my report card clean. Oh dear Lord, please help me. Oh, please!:)


Oh yeah, before I even forget:
Belated Happy Birthday, Camille!
I love you!:P
