Darn…I was not able to watch the Paramore live in Manila concert last March 89 so I just satisfied myself on watching you tube videos of those who went to that concert…
“Cause none of it was ever worth the risk..”. one of my favorite lines on the song “the only exception”(sorry i’m very lazy to capitalize some letters. please bear with me.) while listening to that line and whenever that line finished I always replay it because there was something on that line. And up to this time I was typing this blog on my laptop, I still don’t know that something. Maybe, an experience of mine. Obviously. yes. but, what experience???
I just posted this blog, hoping that I would get that something. however, I think this did not work. AGHHHHHHH!!! WHAT’S THAT SOMETHING???!!!
oh, I’ll just bother myself about it over my summer vacation. For the meantime, I will enjoy the last 2 weeks of my high school life, and my last two weeks on my school. I’ll really miss it.;(
I was planning to post here three days ago but then I got tired from school so I just slept….zzz
While I was at school two days ago( I thing that was last Saturday), I was one of the first seniors to arrive in school. Supposed to be, we were asked to go to school at 1:00 but my classmate texted me that I should report immediately. Well, I was not the only one whom she texted but this includes all the class officers of the class. Since I was one of those officers, I went to school early. On her last text to me, she told me to bring a red ballpen. But I don’t have one so I just brought my all my colored ballpens. At first, I didn’t have the idea that we will be going to check our test papers so I texted another classmate, and he said we’re going to check OUR papers.
then on my way to school, I got irritated because of the heavy traffic. I was rushing that time because i was told to report at 10:00 am, but when i looked at my phone it was already past 10:30. stupid campaigning period. Good my phone was with me so i would be entertained. after thousands of seconds, I reached our building running, rushing. I was just relieved when I saw one of my classmates who just arrived (actually about 10 seconds earlier than me. When I arrived at our room, OMG there were only 3 of us who went to school early. But a couple of minutes later, another classmate arrived and we went to the faculty room to have our work started and finished. Our teacher gave each one of us a bundle of papers and I was waiting for her to give me the bundle which belongs to our section. unfortunately, she didn’t. When we finished all papers, we found out, that none of us checked the paper of our section since we worked on different tables. then when we went to our teacher’s table, we found our paper there. Our teacher didn’t let us to check our own paper.
does this mean she does not trust us?for 10 months that we’ve been together in one classroom, we still have not gained her trust? Or maybe she just forgot to give that bundle to us? Idk…I would not just bother myself about that because I’m no longer, rather, I’m not interested to know my score in that subject. I’ll just bother myself on how will I run while I’m wearing a high heeled shoes…
I just heard this song twice. Another song of Paramore.. still memorizing it. And still trying to grab some important lines. I still have to appreciate the song. I’m very meticulous when it comes to this part.
Guys, meet Alvin my adopted child during our Adopt- a - child Program in our school. a Grade 1 student from a public schoo.l
This was me and Alvin during our first meeting.

I let him experience the rides in our school. He was on the Pegasus ride at these pictures.(I wasn’t able to take pictures with other rides.)
The view at the top of the Ferris Wheel. Seen here is the grade school building and the outside basketball court.
During the snack time at the canteen.
I also brought him inside our building. He was with some other friends from their school, playing at our stage.
This was before the gift giving and before we bid farewell to each other.
Alvin together with my friends (in the civilian clothing) and his classmates (in their uniform).
I learned from this boy to share my blessing with other people. Even though I spent money for him that much I was so happy that time. The feeling was light. Now I realized how life is difficult for some people, especially to Alvin. Even though he was from a public school he touched the life of a senior high school student, a Paulinian. I hope that we would meet each other again someday. Both of us professionals? I can’t wait anymore for that day.
Even though this adopt a child program is just our project in Religious Education, this made me learn of so many things.
I lost again my money. God, how much more. I still don’t know why I can’t still learn the lesson behind these stuffs. BTW, I lost again 1 thousand. Ammmmff. And I still don’t know if I would tell this to my parents or not. It’s my allowance for 2 weeks. And the suspect is inside our classroom since I left my money in my bag. It was our P.E. time then when I lost it. I only learned that it was lost when I checked it after our P.E. class. The last time I saw it was when we were going to the gymnasium to have our P.E. class and some of my classmates cut class during that time…
I hope that my money would be returned to me even just half for it. My parents would kill me if they learn about this…
yes, I passed one entrance exam for college. (my first choice was chemical engineering wherein I passed and my second choice was medical technology wherein I’m wait listed) Unfortunately I didn’t pass the entrance exam on one of the universities I chose to study.
Another accomplishment is that I am an honor student (which I was not expecting) this grading period. I became an honor student last grading but I was shocked when our academic Chair called my name and said my average. It rose up by almost one point.
And this is because of hardships, the people around me and God. Thanks to all..
Just this afternoon, somebody attempted to kill herself in our school. When I looked at this person I was shocked because this person was my former best friend. Yeah, she’s a former best friend. She was crying and shouting at the same time. I don’t know if i would laugh at her or would pity her… At first, I thought that she was just catching the attention of everybody inside our gymnasium (we were inside then) but when she shouted, I saw her looking to a guy (same year as us) who was his classmate. her eyes were like on fire. I chatted with one of my seatmates and she was laughing about that incident. I said that she should stop because somebody from the group of this crying girl was looking at her…
This girl attempted to jump on the 6th or 7th level of our bleachers. Good that she was stopped by those people around her. When I was about to ask my another seatmate we were called already to line up on the lobby of the gymnasium because our program would start in a few minutes…
Actually, I really pity this girl. She has as attitude of killing herself if she doesn’t what to do. yeah. she asks for some advices but often times she doesn’t follow these. Poor girl…
If only she knew that her life was very precious. She should be thankful because she’s still alive. She should be grateful because she is still with her family. Doesn’t this girl know that God has the only right to take away her life? I hope that she would be able to read this so that she may be enlightened a little bit…
Yes, every hour, every minute, every day in our lives we learn something.
I just want to share with you guys what I learned earlier during our P. E. class.
Don’t push yourself onto something that you cannot really do. Yes, that’s one of what I learned earlier. I really sucked in dancing. (it’s our activity earlier.)Yeah. I terribly hate it. I really get bored when I watch dance performance. And I really get irritated when I dance. (I’m bad at it) My feet are both left. My teacher scolded our group for being shy that time. (I thought I was the only one to be scolded.)
Another lesson I learned today. Don’t be shy whenever you good thing for yourself.
While we were dancing our classmate said to us “nahihiya lang kayo”(”you’re just being shy”. Now, I learned how to do things right….
Got to finish school stuffs…bye
