Nothing beats the feeling you get when you find out that you've not been given homework for two straight days. Yeah baby! As predicted, there are no new lessons today-- how terrible the teacher who would give out new lessons/topics right after the Quarterly Test. For today, all was smooth sailing. Some test papers were given back and I have nothing against them. My grades reflect how much I've studied-- that's the only embarrassing part. Halatang hindi nag-aral eh, no? But, like what I just said, I have nothing against them. Actually, I'm quite happy as of now. Although it weren't the grand scores I used to get in Grade 7, my scores are something I could actually be proud of, atleast. And knowing the fact that I just survived the First Quarter is such an accomplishment already. The feeling is something like you've actually just lifted a barbel 10 times your weight. It's just simply.. amazing.


Despite what Ms. Santiago said regarding our Quarterly Test results (we didn't do well; the results weren't as good as our MQT), I still hope I do get a satisfying mark-- meaning, something not below 84. Please, please, please. But if you ask me, the test was somehow tricky and it requires your ability to manage time and formulate the flow of your essay in your mind. I felt quite drained after taking the test, honestly. But God have mercy, please give me a satisfying grade.


Believe it or not, we're scheduled to a Symposium regarding Charter Change tomorrow. It's going to last about an hour and a half. And I hope, by the end of this formal talk, I'd be well-enough educated about the Constitution. Because from our activity in AP today, I found out that I have no idea what the Constitution is. Bad, bad Filipina, I admit.


And tomorrow, thank God, will be our last day for the week and we're off for a 4-day vacation-- a time to veer away from school-related activities and mainly have fun. Afterall, the Quarterly Tests are over and the Second Quater hasn't officially started yet-- meaning, there's still space for some dilly-dallying and horse-play. Now, that's what I'm talking about! :)
