October

October Happenings...

Oct 3 - classes resume from long weekend. everything's back to normal... it is a week from the quarterly exams. should i study now or should i do it later? ... LATER!!!

anyway, that's what i would have thought at that time. back from a week of suspended classes and the teachers sure do know on how to pay and get back all the lost days.

boring...

NEXT!

Oct 12-14 - EXAMS DAYS!!! ha! i have no energy to tell you guys the schedule of the exams which i did last time.

Oct 15 - SAGUTANG DAYALOGO! my partner would have left for the United States of Americs by the time our turn will come for this activity so we did it earlier at a perfect time when no one is watching in the classroom except for our Filipino Teacher! we did half great! half only because we weren't able to memorize our lines to the fullest and we weren't also able to practice together (okay, we did practice but that was without any formal arrangements--it's more of an on-the-spot practice). so we got a grade of 88. not bad.

after that...

HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL PLAY!!! we didn't actually redid everything, its just what we did literally that afternoon. the class was divided into two groups. one group had an all-english script and songs while our group had an all-filipino script and songs. so they are incomparable. they also had different story lines. anyway, more about me. i played as a boy who is broken-hearted; a significant extra for it turns out that some humor was added because of me. :D we did great and we had a grade of 92! we would've gotten greater score if we had time to practice but what we did was awesome and unforgettably unforgettable! it was a day to remember!

Oct 16 - ON THE JOB EXPERIENCE DAY!!! the seniors are divided into what course they will take in college. i am in the Accountancy group since i want to be a Certified Public Accountant someday. our group went to Banko Sentral ng Pilipinas where our money is made and where the national finances and accounting happens. the office was wickedly awesome and big in terms of area and volume. there was enough space to work and relax. i sure hope i'll be able to work there someday over the rainbow...

oh yeah, we weren't suppose to go to school on this day but we did. it was the feast day of St. Theresa of Avila on Oct 15. because of this there were no classes Oct 16.

Oct 19-23 - PRACTICES FOR DANCE PRODUCTION!!! we had to practice without a minute to spare--NOT! we had breaks of course. besides who wants to practice nonstop? actually our section kinda did and on that week, all our muscles were worn out. we had aching everything even our throats (not mine. i didn't want to waste it in class--preserving it for family day itself!). on this week, my money was wasted on food and drinks. but i don't regret it. the food were enticing and very satisfying!

Oct 24 - FAMILY DAY!!! the big day has arrived and here is what i got to say:

THE MOMENT WE’VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR


As I woke up in the morning last Saturday, 24th of October, the breeze was cold and everything felt different. There was the mixture of nervousness, excitement, and laziness.


OCTOBER 24th was the best day ever!!! It was the school’s family day. The main event for the seniors and the whole high school would be the High School Dance Production. Since much is expected from us seniors, there were many thoughts going in my head and feelings that were mostly evident.


When I finally got to school that morning at seven, I was expecting that the classroom would be filled with people, all ready doing the make-up. I was wrong and the thought of it made me feel lazy because everyone seemed to be in the resting mode. Two hours before the fourth year’s turn, our class decided to practice five more times in the basement. After the last hour practices, I was then excited to dance. Becauseof this, I encouraged everyone to do the make-up all ready and take advantage of the time left to relax, breathe and pray before our production. When we were called to go line up outside the covered court, I felt the nervousness of everyone which made feel the same thing. It was a blessing in disguise that we were dancing second to the last because if we were first to perform, our nervousness level would reach the highest level of power and we would not be able to dance well! Our class was supposed to dance first among the whole fourth year but we were moved to the fifth, for some reasons the class doesn’t know but I think that God did that for a purpose. Whatever the purpose is, only God knows!


The moment that we had all been waiting for has finally come. When it was our turn, body heated up! I thought that I was going to blow up the dance up. I thought that I’m going to do a big mess on the court and if the class wouldn’t win, it would be my fault. I thought that I was going to stumble down or get hit by other classmates while moving from one formation to another. I thought that we won’t be able to follow the timing of the music and the counting of the steps. In short, all I thought during our dance was all negative. I had a negative vibe and that was bad. It’s a good thing that time flew fast at that moment which made me forget whatever I did during the dance.


The negative stuff ended anyway. The negative vibe died when the winners were announced. Nope, our section didn’t win but it was nice to hear that the section, where my best friend is, won first place! It was probably because they had more time to practice than to cram unlike what our section did. They were awesome and very deserving. I didn’t feel sad when we were not one of the champions but I was happy that all of that was over at last! Now, I have no dance to worry about for semester break.


After the dance production, it was time for the next segment of the Family day: eating lunch and riding rides. But that’s another personal experience, so tune in for more of my crazy life during the Family day!


***this was written for elective homework

that's what happened. here in my blog is where the continuation of the next segment starts.

so we didn't win and it's time to change clothes for the better half of the family day so no time for sobbing and tears for me. after changing clothes, i was suppose to eat lunch with my bestfriend but we weren't able to meet after the dance production announcement. so i ate my delcious lunch with my family. after lunch, my bestie and i met in front of the booth where the teachers make us shirts. we had our own design:


this one was printed in front and this nest one was at the back:



this was hand-made drawn by my bestie! LOVE HER!

we ordered two of these for the two of us which was awesome!

after that, we hanged in front of our ypm office and played Pinoy Henyo. the funny part was when we were guessing and guessing crazy things.

THE RIDES!!!

after that, we ate and waited for the sun to come down a little bit more so we can ride the Flying Fiesta. i was afraid to ride that thing first but my friends convinced me enough that i rode it anyway. it was fun!

but the most remarkable ride ever in my whole family day experience was the Dolphin Coaster. IT WAS THE BEST RIDE OF MY LIFE! literally, yes! the seats were swinging up and down as it moves in circular motion. it was a pain reliever--relieved me from all the school work that i had done for half a quarter.

after the rides, we saw some performance of the grade school faculty, the choir of both elementary and high school and the High School dance stream. then we rode the Dolphin Coaster again because of its awesomeness! then...

CONCERT TIME!!!

it was bamboo as the main act and hale as the opening act. before the hale performed, there were dancers which group name i forgot. they're not important anyway. the concert was a boo at first since we saw hale half away from the stage. but then, one of our friends discovered that we can upgrade our tickets. so we did. just in time for bamboo's turn to rock our night out!

it was all worth it and fun at the same time! it was the most memorable one for all of us escpecially since this is the last for us seniors... :(

Then...

Oct 25-Nov 4 - SEMESTER BREAK!!! we extended until november 4 as a pay back from oct 16. this break was not all boring! i had many time alloted for my Mafia Wars account in Facebook and also for my Happy Aquarium account. I fought and iced many other mafias and did many jobs to gain millions of dollars. add to that would be the properties that i bought which made me even richer (in mafia wars of course). about my aquarium, i have many fishes already and my tank has upsized and my corals are making my aquarium look really good!

aside from that, while my brother or father uses the computer, i read little by little the summary per canto of Dante Alighieri's "THE INFERNO"! it is really interesting unlike the other novels that we were forced to read. also, i have done already our homework in our elective (our elective facilitator gave us an assignment to be done during the sembreak! how uncool is that?).

so that's my october. i had fun and i'll make sure that this November will be more fun and more awesome!

that was a lot! even my september was a lot. i hope my november will be much more than the other two months... :D

what's going happen, i wonder?

can't wait for the future!!!!!!!!!
