Hay. Isang nakakadismayang araw...

Kakakuha ko lang ng resulta ng Physics exam ko. Hmm, 'wag na kayong umasa. Bagsak kasi ako. Kainis, akala ko talaga, 41 ang score ko pero, anak ng tokwa! Nabawasan pa ang score ko! Kaasar talaga! Pero, ganun talaga, minsan talaga, babagsak tayo. Pero umaasa naman ako na papasa ako muli. Haha. Parang masaya pa ako sa lagay na yun.

Punta naman tayo sa Math. Muntik na talaga akong malugmok sa kahihiyan. Biro mo, 42/80 yung score ko! Hmmm... Parang 'di nalayo sa score ko nung First Quarter. 44/80. Hell. Cool. Mula ngayon, pormal kong isinusumpa ang sakit sa puso na kung tawagin ay Mafhemafhics.

^_^

Speaking of Fhisics, trip ko lang ikwento kung paano naging hulog ng langit (at todong sakit sa utak!) ang Physics. Sisimulan ko na.

Syempre, simula muna sa unang meeting. Pagpasok ni Sir sa klasrum, tayuan agad! Takot kasi kami sa kanya (mukha ba??). Pag-upo namin, talagang ipaglandakan samin na 'I mean business' . Hmmm...Napangiwi nga ako nung narinig ko yun eh. Pagkatapos nun, nagsimula na ang kabanata ko ng kalbaryo at pasakit. At malayo pa ang Mahal na Araw. T_T

At ngayon nga, bagsak nanaman ako. Flunker nanaman. Slacker ulit. Balik ulit sa dating gawi.

Hehe...Nakabalik na rin sa wakas! Pasensya na at ang tagal-tagal ko nang di nag-uupdate. Nagloloko kasi yung kuryente namin dahil na rin kay Milenyo. Tapos nung akala namin ayos na yung kuryente namin, ayun, pumutok! Nagmistulang fireworks display sa MoA yung kalangitan sa dami ng sparks. ^_^

Masaya ako kasi ang daming bumati sa akin. Pati rin mga lower levels binati rin ako! ^_^ Talagang HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! *winks* -_^

P.S. Sinabi sakin ni Sir Romy yung score ko sa Physics exam. Shucks, bagsak nanaman ako!!! 41/85, kakaasar talaga!!! T_T

Sorry for the long wait...

Well, basically our school is constantly on the move to prepare for the CISAA Tournament.

Anyway, our classes, particularly in our section, 4-Ecology are disrupted because many of the cheerdancers and varsity players come from us. Well, it did cause some changes in the teaching system so most of the time, the eight remaining students in our class joins the PEP squad in practicing the cheers.

We'll be leaving for La Salle Dasma tomorrow for the opening of the said tournament.

Wish us luck!

After ten years, Wi-fi nako! Matagal ko na kasing kinukulit yung tatay ko na mag-Wi-fi na kami kasi sobrang mahal na talaga ng bill namin sa telepono. Grabe, after 3 months, nakuha ko na gusto ko...Kaya makakapag-update nako palagi. Kwento nalang kaya ako ng mga happenings ngayon...

Thursday-Bigayan na ng card. Grabe, pagkakita ko sa grades ko, ang sarap itanong sa sarili ko, "Saang lupalop kaya ako galing at parang nagtaka pa ako sa kinalabasan ng grades ko???" Parang umaasa naman ako na matataas yung mga yun no? Well, ok naman, wala paring line of 7 at wala paring PTC (although alam ko next quarter meron na, sa Physics.) pero sa tingin ko, parang sinaniban ako ng ispirito ng katamaran kaya nagkaganon grades ko. Well, marami pa namang factors, isa na dun ang...*SECRET!* Well, naiinis ako kasi mas mataas ang Physics ko kaysa sa math. Hay.

Friday-Ok naman. Nung homeroom, naglaro kami ng isang laro na kailangan talaga ng teamwork at strategy para manalo. Ano nga pala tawag dun? Ah, Rapids pala. Sa isang group na may 10 members, magkakapit-kapit kayo at bubuo ng wave para patawirin ang mga sapatos namin sa kabilang side. Nung first trial, nanalo kami (iniitsa nga namin yung mga sapatos eh!) pero nung seryoso na ang game, 3rd nalang kami. Ok lang, kasi malinis na yung laro namin sa pangalawa. Well, nakuha ko na ang mga resulta ng aking Mock Interview. Pang #25 ako out of 86. Hindi talaga ako makapaniwala, parang isang himala ang nangyaring yun. Siguro nga, mabait talaga sakin yung nag-interview kaya pinasa ako. Hmmm. Nakuha ko na rin test permit ko sa Ateneo. Well, wala akong makakasama kasi magkakaiba talaga kami ng test venues. Mabuti yan para walang cheating. Hehe.

Hindi ata ako makakasama sa YFC Sports Fest sa Tagaytay...Marami kasi akong kailangang tapusin at poproblemahin..Baka naman kasi pag pumunta ako dun, parang wala rin ako dun kakaisip sa mga yun. Sorry talaga LORD GOD... T_T Babawi po ako! Hindi po kasi ako makakapagserve nang maayos kung problemado ako..Sa tulong nyo, maayos ko rin ito..Salamat!

At natapos ang isang araw.

Napagod ako ng husto ngayong araw na ito. Nagalakad ako ng naglakad papunta sa mga museo na ginawa ng mga estudyante sa Mataas na Paaralan. Tumulong pa ako sa pagsasaayos ng aming sariling museo. Hay... Kakapagod talaga. T_T

Sa paglalakad ko, marami akong mga bagay na naalala. Una kasi, huling AP Day na namin kaya talagang sineryoso namin yung pagdisenyo ng aming museo. Nagkaroon pa nga kami ng minus points dahil sinet-up na namin agad yung mga mesa. Sabi nga ni Drex eh, "Kaya tayo naminusan para hindi magkaroon ng Landslide Victory." Ang optimistic talaga niya.

Nung nagbukas ang lahat ng mga museo sa publiko, naglibot kami kasama si Ms. Jham, ang class adviser namin. Talagang desidido ang lahat na manalo. Patalbugan talaga ng mga exhibit at palamuti sa museo. Grabe, talagang nag-enjoy ako sa paglilibot. Sayang nga lang, konti lang ang nakuha kong souvenirs pero ok lang yun. At least nag-enjoy ako.

Tuloy ulit sa alaala. Huli naming pinuntahan yung museo namin. Biro mo, kailangan pa namin ng ticket sa pagpasok. Eh, marami na palang may ticket na pero di pa ring makapasok kaya sila muna yung pinapasok namin. Huli na kami pumasok sa loob at sa wakas, nakita na namin kung paano nila pinresent yung museo namin sa mga tao. Pagkatapos, pinanood na namin sa huling pagkakataon yung video. Puro kaming papicture dun sa loob na parang hindi na kami magkikita-kita ulit. Tapos, paglabas namin, nagulat bigla si Ms. Jham nang may Grade Five palang pumasok kasama namin. Nasabi nga nya eh, "Eh sino ka naman???" Nakakahiya tuloy, kasi nagpapicture kami dun, nandun pala sila, nanonood. Hehe. Nagpapicture din kami sa labas ng klasrum namin. Tapos, biglang sumigaw si Aimee, "Huling AP Day na natin!" Sigawan naman kami, tapos biglang bumwelta si Drex, "Eh, gagraduate naman ba tayo???" Natawa talaga kami dun sa sinabi nya. Ayan, picture-picture. Matatanggal na ata mukha ko bukas. Haha.

Mawawala nga pala ako ng mga ilang araw...YFC Mega Camp na kasi. Kailangan ko na kasing bumawi, hindi na ako nakaka-attend ng mga gatherings eh...Saka hindi pa ako nagpapa-covenant. Kahit hindi sila sumama, buo na ang pasya ko dahil alam ko sa sarili ko, na nandun ako para pagsilbihan ang Panginoong Diyos.

Toodles nalang sa inyo! Kita-kits nalang!

Hay...Tapos na ang KAMPISE pero hindi ko parin makalimutan ang saya ng itiniuturing kong huling KAMPISE. In fairness, kinareer ko ang costume ko ngayon, parang hahabol ako sa kasal sa sobrang bongga ng suot ko! Naging finalist pa ako ng Best Costume sa 4th Year pero sayang, di nanalo. Pero ok lang yun, kasi naramdaman ko ang saya na hindi ko pa naramdaman mula nang ginawa yang KAMPISE sa school. Grade Four pa ako nun. Sayang kasi hindi ko man lang nakunan ang sarili ko na suot ang costume na yun. Hay. Yung iba kasi, todo-papicture na parang matatanggal na ang mukha kinabukasan. Hahaha.

...

Minsan, kapag matagal na kayong magkaibigan ng isang tao, lalo na kapag "opposite sex," may posibilidad na madevelop sila sa isa't isa. Oo. Marami akong kilalang ganyan ang naging istorya. Pero ito ang nagiging problema. Kadalasan ay naguguluhan ang taong nasabihan ng pag-ibig. Mas talamak ito sa kaso ng mga babae at ito ang kadalasang nagiging sanhi ng sawing pag-ibig. Hay. Pero marami paring umaasa. Marami pa ring naghihintay sa wala.

...

Nakakahinayang ang isang pagkakaibigang nasira. May posibilidad kasing hindi na ito mabalik. Pero ano nga ba ang kadalasang dahilan? Oo, alam nating may mga bagay na hindi nating gusto sa isang tao na nais na nating mabago sa kanila. Oo, pagod na nga ang magkabilang panig. Pero hanggang kailan?

...

Iiwanan ko kayo ng isang kanta mula sa APO na nirevive ng Spongecola. Nakakapagtaka.

Nakapagtataka
by Apo Hiking Society
Revived by: Spongecola

Walang tigil ang gulo sa aking
pag-iisip
Mula nang tayo'y nagpasyang
maghiwalay
Nagpaalam pagkat hindi tayo bagay
Nakapagtataka, oh.

Kung bakit ganito ang a-king
kapalaran
Di ba't ilang ulit ka nang
nagpaalam
At bawat paalam ay puno ng iyakan
Nakapagtataka, nakapagtataka

Chorus:
Hindi ka ba napapagod,
o di kaya'y nagsasawa
Sa ating mga tampuhang
walang hanggang katapusan
Napahid na ang mga luha,
damdamin at puso'y tigang
Wala nang maibubuga,
wala na 'kong maramdaman.

Bridge:
Kung tunay tayong
nagmamahalan
Ba't di tayo magkasunduan
Oh, oh.
Walang tigil ang ulan
at nasaan ka, araw
Napano na'ng pag-ibig sa isa't
isa
Wala na bang nananatiling pag-asa
Nakapagtataka, saan ka napunta?

Hindi ka ba napapagod,
o di kaya'y nagsasawa
Sa ating mga tampuhang
walang hanggang katapusan
Napahid na ang mga luha,
damdamin at puso'y tigang
Wala nang maibubuga,
wala na 'kong maramdaman.oohh

Napahid na ang mga luha,
damdamin at puso'y tigang
Wala nang maibubuga,
wala na 'kong maramdaman.
Kung tunay tayong
nagmamahalan
Ba't di tayo magkasunduan
Oh, oh.

Hanggang dito nalang.

So ganun talaga ang buhay.

Hmmm.

Medyo ok naman ang takbo ng araw ngayon. Hindi naman kagandahan, hindi rin kapangitan. Basta, ok ang araw ko ngayon at yun na yun.

Gumawa kami ng mga banderitas sa school. Parte kasi yun ng celebration ng Linggo ng Wika. In fairness, ang bilis namin gumawa. Saka pulido pa ang paggawa. Medyo hindi ko makakaila na medyo may mali rin pero ok lng. Saka, binigay yung quiz sa Physics kanina. Kamote talaga ako dun. Biro nyo, 0 o itlog ang nakuha ko. Pero nagulat ako kasi hindi man lang ako nag-react ng violent sa score ko. Baka kasi sanay na ako na makakita ng mababang grade lalo na sa Physics.

Hay.

Elimination kanina ng mga kasali sa Maluwag na Talumpati. lahat, kanya-kanyang opinyon at saloobin. Pero may speech ako na natuwa ako kasi kahit nakakatawa sya, may 'sense' pa rin ang mga sinasabi nya. Si Kimchi yun.

Nanood din kami ng High School Musical kanina. In fairness, yun ang first time ko. Ang gwapo talaga ni Troy Bolton! Ang galing din ni Gabriella! Sana mapanood ko na ng buo kasi puro Fast Forward. Palibhasa, napanood na nila. Figures.

Nung club, naglaro lang kami ng Mafia. Grabe, ang saya namin eh...Saka nakakatawa kasi yung mafia namin, gustong patayin sarili nya. Kaya hindi agad natapos yung laro.

Hey, may TRO pala ako sa pag-iinternet. So, byebye na!

Hmmm...Natapos nanaman ang isang araw. Mukhang ok naman ang araw na ito..Kasi maraming nangyari na masaya...Una kasi, hindi ako nakapag balik-aral sa AP. Tapos, nung Physics, nakakatawa talaga yung kwento sa amin ni Sir Romy! Grabe, as in tawa ako to the max! Nakalimutan ko na yung tungkol sa bagsak kong quiz kanina... Pero ok lang yun! Babawi nalang ako next time! ^_^

Iiwanan ko kayo ng isang kanta mula sa Urbandub. Endless, a Silent Whisper.

Sa wakas! Ito ang una kong post sa wikang filipino...Malapit na kasi ang Linggo ng Wika kaya naisipan kong magpost gamit ito. Kailangan ko lng magkwento ng konti...Hmmm...

English Time-Medyo wala namang nangyaring kakaiba. Ako kasi si Gunther para sa Picture Perfect ng The Nibelungenlied. Umarte lang ako na pinatay ko yung kalaban tapos pinatay ni Juan, este Siegfried yung kalaban ko. Oks, di ba?

TLE-Naku, natawa ako ng husto dyan! Kasi ba naman, sabi sa amin ni Ms. Malou, nagbenta sya ng grape seed extract capsules sa isang matanda tapos, nung uminom daw yung matanda, nawala daw yung wrinkles nya! At ito pa, sabi nya sinubukan din nya yun at presto! Pagpunta nya sa kanyang dermacologist(dermatologist pala!), ay nawala na ang mga pekas nya! o ha! San pa kayo? Tapos, walang magawa si Juan, kinompute niya ang kikitain ni Ms. Malou sa marketing sa buong taon. At eto ang lumabas...Wah! Basta 12, figure income yun...Hindi pa kami nagdeduct ng tax. Grabe...

A.P.-Medyo nakakalungkot, kasi natalo kami agad sa game. Hmm...Ok na sana kung hindi lang sumigaw si Riel ng...Ukraine!!!

Physics-Hmm..Gumawa kami ng SW kanina at alam kong, kamote ako dun. Bukod kasi sa mali ang FBD (Free Body Diagram) ko, mali pa pati solution. Hay naku, kung bakit naman kasi...Hmmm, basta ok naman yung nangyari sa discussion nain kanina tungkol sa types of equilibrium...Natuwa talaga ako!

Math-Hmmm...Ok naman yung lesson..Pero kasi, mahirap siya kasi maraming gagawing kung ano-ano para makuha yung sagot...Pero ok lng, 0.5 na lang, exempted nako sa susunod na quiz! ^_^

So, yan lahat yung nangyari...Hmmm..Cge, Paalam!

Hey...My blog just turned one!!! Actually, I only started blogging last November, but I am celebrating the time when I was incorporated into Blogger...I am so grateful that I actually reached this time..I have always thought of shutting this blog ever since my last outage. But I thank GOD that I survived...

Anyway, Physics is getting harder than ever...We are now discussing something about seesaws in equilibrium...I really understood it but when an example about tapered poles was discussed, I totally freaked out! I really don't know how to solve it...But I managed to solve it using a different method. I miraculously passed the exam in Physics...I don't know how I managed but I was genuinely happy that my efforts did not go to waste. I am glad that I didn't get a failing grade in all the exams...^_^

I think I need to do something...I'll go check 'round about later...Bye!

Finally! I recovered from the Wordpress frame-up! Wahahaha...I had this terrible brush with Wordpress and it deliberately wiped away my template! Hehe, It took me five seconds for me to realize that I'm dead beat. Anyway, I was surfing the net and I found this wonderful layout with a FLASH header. It was so cute, I had to get it. And finally, I'm back again. I am sorry for the inconvenience that this small incident caused. Put me back to your links list please! =)

I am currently having my Quarterly exams. We had Filipino, Araling Panlipunan, and Computer for this day. I had a breeze with the first two subjects. But when I had the Computer test, it was a TOTAL DISASTER!!! I forgot some of the items! And I forgot to put the finishing touches for my Pseudocode! Well anyway, I don't expect a passing grade in that subject though. I'll just do better in English and Math tomorrow. T_T

This coming Sunday, I will be taking my UPCAT. And I got the early schedule, 6:30 AM, College of Architecture building. I am so excited and nervous. I hope that I'll be able to pass the exam. \m/

Wish me luck! ^_^

Well, honestly I need to work doubly hard though( and to death too!) because next week will be the week before the Quarterly Exams...And the UPCAT will be on August 5-6. That only means that the YFC Mega Camp will be rescheduled. I am still not a true YFC Member because I still don't have my Covenant Orientation...I do wish I am a bonafide member of YFC.

I also need to finish writing the personal essay for Ateneo and have it proofread by Ms. Jham... Why does Ateneo have to change its deadline? Instead of August 18, the deadline's been moved to August 4 and we need to submit the requirements by July 26, Wednesday. Which means to say, Ms. Jham, my English teacher, will have only 2 days to check my work. I also need to work on my DLSU-Dasma Application Form...It's needed next week.

I also need to work on my journals for Filipino and English and research for articles in Math...And I need to work doubly hard in Physics. I remember that I have 3 passed quizzes and 1 failed quiz. I always fail my homework...I wonder why...

As Sir Romy, my Physics teacher has said,
"Kalimutan nyong magakakaibigan kayo dito. Kailangang magtrabaho kayo mabuti."

I am currently recovering from a lot of losing slumps...

Anyway, I am so happy that a lot of people have stumbled across my blog. It's really grat to have lots of traffic, and it's quite fulfilling. My tagboard's full of people wanting to exchange links with me and people who answered my Link Exchange call.

Back to losing slumps...

As I mentioned in one of my older posts, I am recovering from a losing slump in Physics...I always fail my homework, and I feel so bad about it. But when I passed a really difficult quiz (20/30), I was so thrilled! And quizzes make up 30% of our components! (HW only makes up 5% of the components) so that's a cool recovery. My teacher, Sir Romy, said that we need to work hard to get a grade of 79 in the card...Whoa...(I failed the 2nd quiz!)

I am also recovering from an emotional crisis...I won't reveal some of the details but, I can tell you for sure, it is one of my darkest days of my high school life...waaa...At least it's over.

Hehe, of course, I am also recovering from a blog crisis...I don't get as much traffic as other blogs...That's why I devised ways...I blog hop frequently and and I exchange links with other bloggers...And that's why i am able to recover from this blog slump...

Ok, that's all.

Hmm...Well, I don't know how this day really turned out. I don't know whether I'll be happy or I'll be sad and nervous. Anyways, I passed my quiz in Physics! I didn't know what happened but I was really sure that I'll really fail it. And I was so shocked when I got my exam paper. I was like, "Pano nangyari yun???" I guess that only meant one thing: I know i got a pathetic score on my homework but I got a satisfactory quiz result.

Why nervous? I think I lost the profiles for the yearbook. I knew that it was placed near my bag but when I came out of the compulounge, my bag was missing. And so were the papers. When I found my bag in the catwalk, the papers weren't there anymore. I started to panic. JUan told me they were at the drawer but when I checked it, it wasn't there.

Well, do you know how this day turned out? You'll be the judge.

Hi...We just had our Career Orientation Week...It was one heck of a week! We were at the auditorium for 4 days...So cold and I didn't brought a jacket...Well anyway, I was having a very informative time there..So, let me tell what happened those past 4 days...

July 4, 2006-The career talk by ESS-Alumni. I must admit, the school did a great job of molding their minds into responsible adults, who have something to share with those who are in great need of career advice. I like listening to their talks but since I'm at the very front, I'm always noticed by the speakers. But anyway, it's ok.

July 5, 2006-The symposium of Colleges and Universities. I must admit, in choosing the right course, it boils down in choosing the right school. That's why I asked quite a handful of questions about the schools and after thinking, i have decided already on which school I will pursue my tertiary education.

July 6, 2006- The career talk by professionals. I must say I learned a valuable lot from the speakers. Especially Mr. Danilo Arao for explaining to us the world of journalism. Well before that, we had a movie showing.

July 7, 2006- The Mock interview. I was so nervous before since I have a big problem with eye contact. But I was so overwhelmed. I had my interview for only five minutes. And my interviewer, Ms. Yhan was so kind. I was so relaxed and I haven't had much problems. Well, before I had my interview, we had a movie marathon at the auditorium. We watched School of Rock, Tokyo Drift and She's the Man.

So there, we had quite a lot of activities during that week. I learned quite a lot and I must say, I'm ready for COLLEGE!

Whew! I finally survived my first week of formal classes...Since my schoolwork is in the way, I would be updating weekly and promise, I'll tell all my experiences during that week in one post. Haha..That's impossible though...It wouldn't fit...And I guess I'm much luckier than I was in my third year...All I have to do are my assignments for Tuesday and Wednesday..And yeah, I still have a bout of colds...And I hope that I can do much better next week.

Gotta go though...

Hmmm...I think I survived my formal classes...Well basically I was not up to the test but I guess it's worth it...Physics was quite ok...I got the lesson really nicely locked up in my mind...Asked a couple of questions and I guess, it went quite good. (Whew!)

Well, I hope that tomorrow and the next couple of days would be better...Well, the mythology homework is a real stress reliever...(Just kidding!) Anyway, I need to refresh my mind about my Math...It's getting cobwebs in there! I think I was too complacent with it...*sigh*

Guess the world is no better place after all...

I decided to update again (finally!) before formal classes starts...I must say, I have some assignments, due on Monday and I need to finish them by Friday...Dammit! I can't go to that thingy ( I need to ask again!) 'Coz I don't want to worry by Sunday when formal classes start by Monday the next day...I searched the literary works needed for English and I will research the assignment for Math..I will still print the visuals for filipino...And oh no! I need to read the book on Physics...Speaking of Physics, I'm so terribly unlucky! Dunno why, but I think it would be much better...Hope so! Well, let me tell you what really happened...

Well, I was slouching on my seat during the rest of the session...When Sir Romy threw us random questions...The first question was kind of tough...What is the difference between Physics and Chemistry? No one raised their hands yet. And here comes the painful part...

I don't know what he exactly said but it goes like this:

"Daig pa kayo ng physiology...Mga anim na agad ang nagtaas ng kamay sa kanila, iilan lang yung nagtataas sa inyo..."

I was suddenly jerked awake. And so were the rest of the class.

Then the second question was thrown. "Why is knowledge in English important for the Study of Physics?" I already had an idea of what to say but sadly, I wasn't able to spit it out. I was too terrified to commit a mistake. Then when he revealed the answer, I almost punched the table. I was right after all.

Then, the third question was thrown. "Why do we need to compute?" or the much more simplified version, "What do we compute?"

Honestly, I was so sleepy that I couldn't look him straight in the eye. I was looking sideways all the time. When suddenly, he called my attention. I was so surprised and terrified at the same time. When i was giving my answer, I stuck on the word because...

He suddenly said, "Because??!!"

I was so shocked, I jumped backward in horror. My classmates laughed at me. I continued, but was stuttuering so much, I was starting to eat my words. But I hit a key word: DATA.

And the answer was so simple: Measurements.

I can't believe I was in hot water that time. I was trying to stop myself to let my tears fall down. I was so genuinely embarrassed.

As I was still thinking about it, I realize that not all the time, we are on top of the world, but on the depths of despair.

Sigh.
