I am having a hard time being a daughter of an opthalmologists and a pediatrician. As professionals, they expect a lot from me. They always think of me as "matalino" in school. This is one reason why I feel so pressured in school. When I was in high school, I strived to be a part of the honor roll. I was ranked 7th then. And ang sakit sakit kasi ne-feel ko na hindi sila satisfied sa rank ko. I even remember the exact words they used ...
When i told them that I was 7th ...
dad: wow ang galing mo ah!
mom: 7th lang? dapat mas mataas pa.
i didn't know what to answer then. School is so overwhelming. I was so pressured when I was in high school.
Now on college, nothing changed. I was even more pressured now than when i was in high school. My friends would usually make kwento about their parents asking them if kaya pa nila. If not, they can shift to another course kung hirap na hirap na sila. My parents are never like that. I can't even remember them giving me "words of wisdom" or motivation ... just the usual "GANYAN TALAGA. ANONG MAGAGAWA NATIN?" My mom would usually add, "Ano gusto mo ng huminto? Anong gusto mong gawin? Mag-asawa?"
*ang sakit*
Now as the summer class ends, I am so nervous with the result of my performance. Am I going to pass and move on to 3rd year proper?! I AM HOPEFUL. I am not afraid of failing dahil lilipat ng school. I am afraid because it's NAKAKAHIYA. i will not only embarass myself but also my parents.
-well there goes my story ...

Thank God it's Friday!!
"Thank God it's Friday!"
Ever since summer classes started, I always look forward to fridays wherein I could sleep without waking up early next morning. I have classes from Mondays to Fridays, 7am to 4pm with only 30 min break after the first class and 50 mins before my last class.
We usually have quizzes everyday in Micro Parasitology ... but hey. Hindi daw siya nagbibigay ng exam on Fridays! That's one more reason why I love Fridays. haha. Pero helooo unit exam kami ng mondays. :[
We have a lot of reporting to do. Un kasi ang ginagamit ng mga CI this summer kasi mabilis lang pacing ng summer class.
midterms na next week :[ God bless me. and Lord, lalo na sa RLE. Takot ako sa mga tusok tusok pag hindi pro ang tutusok sakin. haha. classmates! at kung sino man magiging partner ko ... kaawaan mo ko ha?

tolerate or not to tolerate?!
Do i have a choice? Yess. i knew a lot of "kalokohan" na ginagawa niya ever since. i am just a BIG FAT LIAR when it comes to those issues kasi ayoko namang makialam. But i think sa sitwasyon kong ganito, parang accomplice na din ako. and duh. i feel like i'm tolerating her pa.
Recently, may mga bagong kalokohan nanamang nagsisilabasan about her. And kanina, i knew something na for me, eh shocking kasi ayoko ng mga ganung bagay. so yeah. she personally told me about that casually.
Boohoo. grabe.

1st summer blog
It has been a week since I started feeling bored. My classes for the previous sem ended on the 10th of March and by the 11th, it's already summer.
I have to stay in Manila until March 26 kasi hinihintay ko pa yung releasing of grades (though I've seen mine already) and the enrolment. Sayang kasi pamasahe if pabalik-balik ako.
On March 10, a friend of mine asked me if we could go out together with Vee. I thought it would be like a girl-time-bonding-chu-chu since it has been a long time after our last gala together. I just said "ok" without even thinking about it ... kasi nga diba wala ng school. So go lang ng go! haha!
Tapos ayun na. She invited us pala to this newly-opened networking company. As soon as I saw the office, I knew that it is a networking business because I've already experienced this before (pinsan ko naman ang nag-invite sa akin sa ibang company). So there, while waiting for the first batch to finish sa pagiintroduce sa kanila ng products, pinagkape lang naman nila kami. haha. 3-in-1 na kami. And what's funny is that, I find the coffee really good for the very first time that I bought some para sa bahay the next day. haha. Ok ... back to my story.
After a few minutes, it was our turn. So the introduced the products and marketing plans like blah blah blah ...
What's unfair is that, they gave us application forms then asked us to fill in the form. Sabi namin we don't have enough money with us (kasi you know na, it's a networking company). Sabi nila, "okay lang mag-down nalang kayo. Any amount na meron kayo." Kung walang ganun na nangyari, talagang hindi ako magsa-sign ng application form. Na-pressure ako. haha. I mean para kasing we can't go unless we sign up. (feeling ko lang yun don't worry :]) So ayun na, Vee and I signed up.
After nun, punta kaming Trinoma para magdinner. That's when I learned na member din pala si Maky. EH di na-positive naman ako. Yun pala when I got home that night and got the chance to talk to him, Super Negative pala siya. I dunno nakuha siguro siya sa sales talk ng mga yun kaya siya nag-sign.
I want my money back. LOL. Maky just got his recently. Hmm. Basta I'll get it back din! :))
One week lang ang dumaan and my allowance for the whole month is naghihingalo na! haha! Di kasi ako mapakali pag hindi nagshoshopping tapos walang gunagawa. I even shop kahit nasa kwarto lang ako :)) online shopping is a yay! haha! I just paid yesterday for 2 items na kinuha ko online. I'm expecting the package tomorrow :]
Kalat na kalat na din ang pangalan ko online because of social networks such as friendster, multiply and facebook. Pati sa mga sites for music like imeem and myplaylist, may account din ako ^^ I have 3 existing yahoo mail accounts. haha. I also participate in online forums. And recently, I just made an account in plurk which di ko ma-enjoy. Idedelete ko na yun soon and I mean SOON.
*biglang nawala momentum ko sa pagblog kaya hanggang dito nalang muna ako*

summer before summer classes
Our classes this sem ended earlier than usual that's why i feel so bored already. I will be staying here in manila until the releasing of grades and enrolment for summer classes on the 24th and 25th of march. Maybe i'll be going back in ilocos on the 26th or 27th.
Pressure is in the air. My mom is bugging me about passing all my subjects. ikaw ba naman kasi magbayad ng 18k+ just for summer classes di ba? ang mahal mahal >:( The problem is, tapos na ang sem. all ican do is pray and wait for the releasing of grades. I am really worried about my grade in physics ... ok and logic too.
One of my friends invited me recently on this newly-opened company in west avenue. Their strategy is so unfair. They gave is applications after discussing their marketing plans and chu chu, and waited for us to fill it right on the spot. Most of us I guess eh napilitan lang magpamember. haay. Now my classmate in high school and I were discussing about this matter. Kasi pati xa, nainvite dun and ngdown din siya. Pero duda kami sa company kasi on the process pa lang yung dti permit nila but they already have bfad, business permit, and everything. Sakit sa bangs! grabe!
I am currently looking for something to do while i'm still here in manila. Sana part time job like a barista in starbucks. hehe. kasi naman, if i will be going sa mall everyday, for sure, mamumulubi ako ng wala sa oras. at least pag may part time job, hindi ka nabobore, may kita ka pa. :] but too bad, i haven't found one yet. huhu.
so 'til here muna. pray lang ng pray. God will never let me be in trouble. Manonood na ko. Si Santino na! haha! bye!

True-to-Life Funny Kwentos :))
This is a compilation of stories which I find really funny. I got these from online forums. LOL with me :)) *hindi makaget-over ...* >baba ng kaligayahan. HAHAHA!
From: bookwormie
true stories sa pamilya ko.
1-paalis kami nun ng family ko. bihis na ang lahat pero nasa loob pa kami ng bahay, nagsasara ng mga bintana at nagtatanggal ng mga plugs ng appliances. hinahanap ni tatay ang SUSI NG KOTSE. pero nauhaw siya at kumuha ng COKE sa ref. pagkainom ng COKE, habang naghahanap ang kanyang mata sa nawawalang susi, nagsalita ang bibig nya nang "ASAN NA ANG SUSI NG COKE?"
*napaghalo nya..nakainom lang kasi ng coke..*
2-nagluluto si nanay sa kusina. wala si tatay nun, may binibila ata. inutusan ni nanay yung kapatid ko na i-txt si tatay na bumili ng LETTUCE.
ang tnxt naman ngkapatid ko "Tay bili po kayo ng LUTTUCE"
ang sagot ni tatay-- "Ok naka bili nako ng LETTICE"
*grabe pano kaya sila nagka-intindihan nun? pero buti nalang LETTUCE ang nabili ni tatay*
3-tanghalian sa bahay. nagkukwento si taty tungkol sa mga ginawa nya nung umaga (nagpunta daw siyang bangko etc.). dahil andami yatang nagsasalita nun, narinig ko si tatay ang sabi: "Oo aalis ako ng mga ALAS-THIRTY."
*ano pong oras ang ALAS-THIRTY?*
4-tinuturuan ko ang kapatid ko nun sa dining table (review for upcat). naupo si tatay sa tabi namin. kinuwento nung kapatid ko kung gano kahirap ang reading comprehension sa exam niya kahapon sa brain train(nag review kasi sya dun). sabi ko dapat intindihin lang niya yung mga salita etc. sabi ko rin na dapat magbasa siya ng kahit isang novel man lang bago mag-upcat kasi ako binabasa ko yung harry potter and the half-blood prince bago ako mag-upcat.
sabi naman ni tatay:"Tama anak! Magbasa ka ng maraming BOOKSYONARY! kailangan mo yun!"
*anu po ba talaga? mga BOOKS o mga DICTIONARIES? hehehehe!*
eto naman, klasmeyt ko nung high school..
scene: pauwi na ang mga freshmen galing sa kanilang field trip sa subic. nasa aircon sila na bus at medyo tahimik na ang iba kasi mga inaantok na (gabi na kasi at that time). isa ako dun sa mga inaantok. katabi ko nuon yung friend ko na parang tulog na rin ata. siguro half-asleep na ako non nang biglang narinig ko si yung klasmeyt kong si Ruru na sinabi sa driver, "manong dyan nalang po sa may JALABA". tapos biglang nagsalita si yung isa kong klasmeyt, sabi kay Ruru(Realname ay Reuter) "reuter, walang JALABA, JALIBI(JOLLIBEE) meron." dahil na-realize ko kung ano ang nangyari, sobrang tawa ako ng tawa nun. as in TAWA ng TAWA na malapit nang mapaiyak. pati nga yung friend ko sa tabi ko na parang tulog na nun eh nadamay sa tawa ko at biglang tawa na kami ng tawa pareho.
hanggang ngayon, pinagtatawanan ko parin ang JALABA ni RURU.

This happened in Rockwell.
There were a lot of people in this escalator that was going up--include me and my hubby. We were the next one in the steps after this certain couple, and before them was this personnel of the mall, carrying along with him this big cart that is as wide as the escalator.
As the guy reached the top, unfortunately, his cart got stuck. So while he was struggling with the cart and moving along with the steps so as he wouldn't fall, eh.... imagine us na lang! We, who are the people behind him!
The couple before us frantically made a way to squeeze themselves out on the sides of the cart. Yung hubby ko naman, di mapigilan ang sariling tumawa kahit nahihirapan na rin kaming isqueeze sarili namin sa sides nung cart para lang makaalis sa escalator.
When we finally got off, I looked back me and guess what? Di pa rin naaalis nung guy yung cart, and all the other people are frantically making ways to get off para di sila magcollide sa cart at dun sa guy.
Some people were starting to move backwards para madelay yung pagdating nila sa taas, some group of guys jumped off, while some elders started frantically shouting at the guy to take his cart off. HAHAHA. It was a big commotion and a funny sight!
Later that day, we got into another escalator again, and guess what? Andun na naman sa harap namin yung cart guy T____T Dun na sobrang natawa hubby ko. Ako naman napatawa na rin. As expected, na stuck na naman kasi yung cart niya. HAHAHA.
Bat di nalang kasi niya gamitin elevator eh, kulet.

First time sacrifices
It has been a long time since I talked about my everyday activities and I am already breaking my promise to myself, which is to put into writing (or typing :D) all the "memorable" events in my life ... or even when I just feel like blogging. I could defend myself on that.
I have been so busy in school that I don't even have time to surf the net, watch tv, eat and sleep anymore. Yes, you read it right. I have been skipping meals because of loads of stuff required in school. This sem, I also experienced my very first 24-hour-no-sleep ek-ek. Dati kasi, kinukulang ako ng isang oras. I could only manage to stay up for 23 hours! haha! I always fall asleep on the last hour! Now, I have been staying up for 24 hours. sheesh! This sem, I also experienced my first ever ubernyt na super educational and dating. Dati kasi, nag-uubernyt kami for FUN lang. I had my biggest eyebags on February 06, 2009. Sheeesh do I look so I wasted! Nakakahiya! haha! And worst, walang napala sa sakripisyong yun! We all got 22% on RLE day 9. Di kami nakapag-present! Tsk. Tsk.
So much for being a leader
I never imagined dreamed for becoming a leader in RLE/PHC. Actually, hindi naman talaga ako dapat ang leader eh. Kaso, the "original" leader of our group was assigned as KII, a group from among us who would collect data about the community in the barangay. Our community leader, who happens to be a member of our group, appointed me as the leader of F23. At first, AYOKO! AYOKO TALAGA! But we don't have any choice. Our CL PROMISED me na tutulungan niya ako. HE PROMISED ...
Aun. pangakong napako ang bagsak. And ang bagsak ko ... HELL! I had to sacrifice my "social life" (which includes malling and everything!), food and sleep! I can feel I am becoming unhealthy (alam mo yun, ung basta. feel mo iba) ... and I don't like it.
(I am currently in my bioethics class while doing this thing ... in my notebook :D I am soooo bored eh. Hasa harap pa man din ako! haha! As in mag-isa ako dito sa first row and sir is just a few inches away from me! :D He's actually talking about euthanasia and SUICIDE ... I am thinking about the latter *evil grin*)
Sama ng loob
Our CL keeps on bossing us leaders. Napakademanding niya and super daming utos! What's worse? Kapag may kailangan siya, tsaka lang niya sinasabi kung kelan niya na kailangan. Oh diba? ang bibo! We have lots of other stuffs to do pa noh! What made him think na kaya naming gawin mga pinapagawa niya ng ganun kabilis?! Super dami pa naman ...
We have our own family in the community. Trio kami. I'm with our CL and another frined. Grabe! Nagkanya-kanya sila ng gawain sa paperworks namin! Kinuha nila lahat ng madali then biglang binigay sakin yung mahirap (at di ko alam gawin). Syempre nagreklamo ako! Our CL said he will he me daw. Tsk. As usual, wala nanaman si pangako. 3 times akong nagpalit at nag-edit. FUCK! There was this scene one night when we we're all in school late because of the case pres.
CL talks to our other trio, my friend:
CL: May soft copy ka ng mga outputs?
Friend: Wala. Si Jaira meron.
(Sheesh! Wala man lang initiative ang mga lokaret na tumulong! I was working on the case pres that time and I was already at my wits end! Leader nga eh. So kailangan matapos. You know what he said?!)
CL: EH DI SIYA NA ULIT GAGAWA LAHAT. (FUCKING SHIT!)
(I know this looks soooo haba na. Pagbugyan niyo ko. It's been a while since I had my last entry here :D)
Just now, I have our outputs beside me. Both of my ka-trio never even bothered to ask how I did with the outputs! I slept at 1 am last night (or this morning). Bangag na bangag ako! kakawindang!
I have been trying to cheer myself up since this morning. Un nga lang, pinagkakait pa ng tadhana. Just before our bio class, this "friend" (another one ha) na seatmate ko din, happened to be my ka-group in the reporting in STS. Haaaay. grabe din mag-utos to. kala mo kung madaming ginagawa eh wala naman. Pareho sila ng CL. Utos ng utos wala namang ginagawa.
Ok ok. I think i'm going to stop here na. I have other things to do pa. :D Thanks for reading ... kung meron man. haha!

First time sacrifices
It has been a long time since I talked about my everyday activities and I am already breaking my promise to myself, which is to put into writing (or typing :D) all the "memorable" events in my life ... or even when I just feel like blogging. I could defend myself on that.
I have been so busy in school that I don't even have time to surf the net, watch tv, eat and sleep anymore. Yes, you read it right. I have been skipping meals because of loads of stuff required in school. This sem, I also experienced my very first 24-hour-no-sleep ek-ek. Dati kasi, kinukulang ako ng isang oras. I could only manage to stay up for 23 hours! haha! I always fall asleep on the last hour! Now, I have been staying up for 24 hours. sheesh! This sem, I also experienced my first ever ubernyt na super educational and dating. Dati kasi, nag-uubernyt kami for FUN lang. I had my biggest eyebags on February 06, 2009. Sheeesh do I look so I wasted! Nakakahiya! haha! And worst, walang napala sa sakripisyong yun! We all got 22% on RLE day 9. Di kami nakapag-present! Tsk. Tsk.
So much for being a leader
I never imagined dreamed for becoming a leader in RLE/PHC. Actually, hindi naman talaga ako dapat ang leader eh. Kaso, the "original" leader of our group was assigned as KII, a group from among us who would collect data about the community in the barangay. Our community leader, who happens to be a member of our group, appointed me as the leader of F23. At first, AYOKO! AYOKO TALAGA! But we don't have any choice. Our CL PROMISED me na tutulungan niya ako. HE PROMISED ...
Aun. pangakong napako ang bagsak. And ang bagsak ko ... HELL! I had to sacrifice my "social life" (which includes malling and everything!), food and sleep! I can feel I am becoming unhealthy (alam mo yun, ung basta. feel mo iba) ... and I don't like it.
(I am currently in my bioethics class while doing this thing ... in my notebook :D I am soooo bored eh. Hasa harap pa man din ako! haha! As in mag-isa ako dito sa first row and sir is just a few inches away from me! :D He's actually talking about euthanasia and SUICIDE ... I am thinking about the latter *evil grin*)
Sama ng loob
Our CL keeps on bossing us leaders. Napakademanding niya and super daming utos! What's worse? Kapag may kailangan siya, tsaka lang niya sinasabi kung kelan niya na kailangan. Oh diba? ang bibo! We have lots of other stuffs to do pa noh! What made him think na kaya naming gawin mga pinapagawa niya ng ganun kabilis?! Super dami pa naman ...
We have our own family in the community. Trio kami. I'm with our CL and another frined. Grabe! Nagkanya-kanya sila ng gawain sa paperworks namin! Kinuha nila lahat ng madali then biglang binigay sakin yung mahirap (at di ko alam gawin). Syempre nagreklamo ako! Our CL said he will he me daw. Tsk. As usual, wala nanaman si pangako. 3 times akong nagpalit at nag-edit. FUCK! There was this scene one night when we we're all in school late because of the case pres.
CL talks to our other trio, my friend:
CL: May soft copy ka ng mga outputs?
Friend: Wala. Si Jaira meron.
(Sheesh! Wala man lang initiative ang mga lokaret na tumulong! I was working on the case pres that time and I was already at my wits end! Leader nga eh. So kailangan matapos. You know what he said?!)
CL: EH DI SIYA NA ULIT GAGAWA LAHAT. (FUCKING SHIT!)
(I know this looks soooo haba na. Pagbugyan niyo ko. It's been a while since I had my last entry here :D)

Dat 08 in Batangas
This is so far the easiest community day for me since the first day of our community service in Batangas. :D It's the last day of January 2009. On the bus, mejo mejo napag-initan kami ng maaga, though I don't find it very serious kasi whole class naman ang pinagalitan ... hindi lang ako. ^^ haha. When our CI finally decided to sit down and leave our butts alone, aun na. ok na. basta un.
Nadistribute ko na ung mga CSTs sa members ko. Me and my partner Tracy had to go back to the 5 families who refused to be interviewed last week plus 2 new families. We decided to start with the 2 new CSTs. We headed to the 2 houses with a single red gate. Aun. Sa wakas di pa nakakaalis yung may-ari ng bahay and pumayag silang magpainterview. It's so madali kasi 2 families agad yun. So after that, we only have to look for the houses of the 5 families who refused last week. :D
The caretaker approached us when we were like "tao po" forever. And blah blah blah ... then she said to tracy, "kamukha mo yung asawa ng anak ko ..." or something like that. Haha. feel na feel naman ni tracy. LOL. (joke lang kat!)
After interviewing the 2 families, eh di palabas na kami xempre. Etong si ate caretaker sabi sa may gate, "saan ang probonsya niyo?" She's looking at me this time, so I answered "sa Ilocos Norte po ako." (establlish rapport nga diba?!) then to tracy, "ikaw?" My partner answered, "ah sa Marinduque po ako." *syet ipagpauumanhin. spelling check please. haha*
The she said, "kunin ko number niyo" syempre tinginan kami ni tracy ... I dunno but ang pumasok sa isip naming dalawa is that to establish the lintik na rapport! so we were like "ah sige po"
eto naman si ate caretaker. takbo to get her phone. haha. pag balik sabi ba naman, "may anak akong binata nasa Maynila." (sa isip namin, "SO?!" haha) tapos pinakita pa ung picture. LOL.
Tracy: ah ilang taon na po siya?
Ate caretaker: 22.
Tracy: ahh.
Ate caretaker: anong pangalan niyo?
Tracy: Ay ako po si Katherine.
Ako: Ako po si Jaira.
Eh di un na super type na ng number si tracy. Ganun din ako which is super KATANGAHAN. haha. Why the hell are we giving our numbers to this mysterious lady with a blood pressure of 170/120 mmhg?! LOL.
So blah blah blah ... alis na kami. Next kwento.
Ung first refused bahay na pinuntahan namin, wala yung may-ari. Kids lang ang nasa bahay and their lola (who happened to be interviewed already). So that one falls under NOT SURVEYED. 1 down. 4 more :D
Next, yung mag-asawang mailap sa tao. (well un ung perception namin sa kanila. haha. kasi naman ang taray ng dating nila last week!) But when they finally let us in, mabait naman pala :D
2 down. 3 more! :D
etong masaya! we didn't know ng partner ko na yung isang refused pala is abandoned na! :D so we're down to 2! haha.
Mas masaya dun. etong last 2. Both NOT SURVEYED kasi parehong walang tao :D see? saray ng buhay namin. haha.
So maaga kaming natapos ni tracy. And we we're somewhat hungry na hindi. o ewan. Sabi we should eat our lunch with our foster family. pero ayaw namin kasi mababait kami. :D pero pumunta kami. haha. good thing, nasa kapit-bahay sila at nakasara sa bahay nila. Syempre kakahiya naman kung pauuwiin namin sila just for us to eat our lunch there. Ang tagal naming tumambay ni Tracy si store sa harap ng foster family's house. Until we were entertained by this plane na ung parang nagsi-circus sa ere. (may tawag dun kaso I forgot ^^) Tracy was like, "Jai! bat ganun yung eroplano! tumatagilid!"
haha. i was thrilled! Kasi sa tv ko lang un nakikita. as in first time kong makakita ng ganun in real life! haha!
(I can feel mahaba na tong blog ko! Keri lang! ^^)
Then blah blah blah ... next story!
We were walking nanaman ng ever-kalog kong partner na si Tracy. I was busy with something or na-carried away ako ng bagay na diko maalala and i stepped on a puddle of ... it's not water eh. basta un. grabe. sinira niya ung sapatos ko! hahaha =)) got to visit mr. quickie na! syet! aun.
Eto. mukha kaming pulubi. haha. we were hungry and we don't have a place to eat our lunch. Kaya we decided to stay sa waiting shed with Tin. haha. aun dun kami kumain. tin gave me her spoon and she used her fork kasi I forgot to get a spoon and fork. kumusta ka naman?! wala kasi sa isip ko un. ang nasa isip ko, "wala akong dadalhin kasi babaunan ako ni krisslene." LOL.
so blah blah blah ... 2pm! Call time! we headed back to Brgy. hall. pinagsama-sama namin yung number ng na-interview namin for today and for the past 2 days. And YAY! naabot namin yung quota na 80% :D
Tapos uwi na kami. hihi. Aun!
THE END!!! :D hahaha!

I had so much fun today! From the very first second after I opened my eyes in the morning, until the last second before I slept, I felt really great today. Sabi nga ni Shella, "parang ang daming nangyari ngayon."
Mga 5:30, umalis kami sa bahay pabalik ng school. Mga 7:30 na nagstart yung concert and ang daming pang eklavoo ang FEU bago ang main event. I think it's around 9pm when moonstar 88 started playing. They played only 2-3 songs I think. I can't remember. Then Parokya Ni Edgar followed. Damn. Nag-enjoy ako. haha. unlike last year ... sheesh. though ok naman. well ewan!
(sorry bigla ako tinamad mag-blog.)
From 7:30 am hanggang 1:30 pm, as usual we had classes: sts, speech and physics (sheesh physics!) though physics is not that bad today. haha.
While waiting for our prof in physics, we we're deciding kung saan kami pupunta kasi at 6pm, manonood kami ng concert sa school. Un nga kasi andun ang moonstar 88 and of course, parokya :D The options were: gateway, St. Jude or ... sa bahay. UNFORTUNATEY, sa bahay ang bagsak namin! So yun we went there after classes. May nag-tally ng cst, may nanood ng tv, may nagkalat sa kwarto ko ... and un. haha!

After Parokya's 2nd song, umuwi na kami ni Shella. Mga 10pm na siguro yun eh uwi pa kami ng Sta. Mesa. haha. nag-ubernyt siya sa house then sabay kaming pumasok sa (manila zoo) for the community. haha. Aun.
The end!
(So much for biglang shift ng mood.)

phc-video
We ran out of time for our concept 2 in phc so our lecturer decided to give us some video shooting to do about the teaching plan we were suppose to role play in school. We had to give it to her in a cd together with its paperworks.
We were finished by 4:00pm. The others left earlier when some of them stayed longer for voice recording. While waiting for Jeff to finish the work, some of my classmates decided na mag-shot daw kasi type daw nila yung table set ng dad ko sa labas ng bahay. haha. Kaya ayun. They bought themselves something to drink.
It was Wednesday and it's our free day but unfortunately, we have to go to school and attend a class meeting for our community service on Saturday. The meeting started from 8:30 am to 11:30 am. After eating lunch, I told my group na magkita-kita kami in gate 3 of FEU.
It was 12:30 when we're finally complete and so off we went sa bahay :D
Basta ang saya. Ang pinakamaraming takes lang nagawa namin for a single scene eh mga 4 lang kaya natapos namin ng maayos naman.

FEU Battery Exam! Now or Never!
This is it! This is really is it!
We took our batt exam december last year. I can't say that the exam was easy ... nor hard. What creeps me out was the fact that I didn't finish answering up to the end and that I had shaded letters randomly before the proctor came to get my paper.
(Sheesh! How we hated him! The exam was suppose to be until 12:00nn! It's only 10 something am when he told us to pass our papers. Malay ko ba kung bakit yun nagmamadali! aynaku!)
The results were expected to be released on February 2009 pa. So medyo pa-easy easy pa ang lahat, not bothering to think of it ... yet. haha.
It was just this week that the news came out na na-release na daw yung result. This week was a pit of hell for every 2nd year ahse student of feu! We were so nervous that we can't even decide if kukunin na namin yung papers o mamaya na. haha. Good thing, kinuha ng sec. coor. namin yung papers and sabay sabay na ididistribute during our phc class.
kanina, during our phc, our concept 3 lecturer told us na wala pa daw binibigay sa kanyang papers. And that maybe sa saturday na daw ibibigay yun during our community. When we were about to be dismissed (well actually dismissed na kanina pero wala pang lumabas), our sec. coor. entered the room, holding a bundle of papers! eeek! judgment day!
I was so nervous waiting for my name to be called para kunin yung papel ko. When I was called finally, I immediately looked at my papers with full hope! And to my relief, I think I passed :D
Kaiser told me that the passing percentage is 75. I got 91 :D with a standard score of 634 saying that I belong in the "superior" in QI.
Happy for now. Batt exam is only A requirement for entering the 3rd and 4th level. We still have to undergo an interview (with the dean daw?) and weigh our GWA.
Kaya yan! Kaya! Kakayanin! Haha!

My BIG Night
October 30, 2008. I woke up with excitement thinking that tonight would be the night we've all been waiting for. Everyone in the house - and in the neighborhood - were excited for the dusk because it would be the signal of the start of the party.Early in the morning, everyone is preparing for the event. My tita, who is in charge of the food and table setting, and her crew were already at the venue to set the tables. The people in charge of the balloon decorations arrived later then started doing their part.
We were all excited! After lunch, we started with the hair and make-up. It wasn't long before the sun set. And we were off to Teatro Ilocandia, MMSU Batac where my debut party will be held.
As we approach the entrance, I saw my friends taking pictures eagerly at the entrance of the theater. They were all dressed up for the event. I can see that they're also excited for tonight's party.
As I entered, friends and relatives and more friends came to greet me a happy birthday and some beso-beso. It was 7:00 pm when the program began.
It started with an introduction about me. After that, I marched through the red carpet with my escort, my brother. Behind us were my dad and mom.
I sat in the middle of the stage as they showed the powerpoint presentation - which I made myself - showing my metamorphosis since birth.Traditional 18's followed althroughout the program. I had my 18 candles, 18 roses and 18 treasures.
I also had my grand cotillion, which was waltz, and another dance number, this time, swing.
The food served, they say, was really good. I never get the chance to get myself something to eat because I didn't even felt hungry that time. I guess I was too excited to eat anything. My mom just gave me a plate of food, which I can't even finish. haha. There was a sushi bar and lots and lots of beer. My friends even thought na parang js prom daw yung debut ko, which I understood as FUN. For me, it means that they had fun during that night.
After the program, the dancing part followed. My friends and I were goofing around the stage wih the balloons, gifts and cakes.
From this event, I made new friends. It feels like it was a bonding moment for teenagers like us.
I officially turned 18 on November 04, 2008. The celebration was ahead of my real birthday because classes would have resumed by that time.
I had so much fun and I am so thankful to my mom and dad for making it possible!

New Year's blog
Last Christmas break, I went home in Paoay to celebrate Christmas and New Year. There's nothing much to do there actually bacause some of my friends are here in Mnaila and the others went to other places where they would also celebrate the holidays.
Nag-eenjoy akong mag-simbang gabi though I never had a chance to complete the 9 mornings :c ... it's either may nababangaang sched or likas lang talaga na antukin ako (sabi nga ni romel haha.)
On the 24th of december last year, nag-midnight mass kami and inupakan ang noche buena. We didn't really have much and fancy food on the table. We even forgot to buy keso de bola. haha. We don't mind anyway :D
On the 25th, we had a christmas party sa bahay nila wawa Lita. It's probably a family get-together or something like that. hehe. Every family brought food for everybody. We had gift-giving, games and lots of dancing.
On the 26th, it's my dad's birthday. The celebration was mostly on the previous night ... well midnight na siguro. We had dinner at McDo kasama mga pinsan ko. Too bad tumaas ang bp ni tita Lea that time so nagtake-out nalang kami for her.
December 31, 2008 nag-midnight mass ulit kami. After that ... we went home and aun. I can say it's a pangit new year. haha. But I'll do me very best to make this year not as bad as it started. toinks.
Happeee New Year friends!
