You can't always get what you want...
But if you try sometimes, what you just might find, you get what you need!
I never get what I want when it comes to sections. Never. Ever. But it's okay, because it always turns out to be the best section for me. :D Like Rinaldi, and Savio, and Valdocco, and then Faenza. But at the end of the year, I didn't regret that I was in that section. So I just hope for the best this upcoming school year.
My classmates: Arvi, Sean, James, Blanky, Carlo C., Khielle, Krippen, Jason E., Kyle, Jerome, Timothy, Patrick I., Keanu, William, a new student, Takuya, Patrick M., Adrian O. (I dunno who he is!), Pambid, Nathan, Xander, Stephan, Raphael, Ceejay, Ruth, Astrid, Stephanie, Krista, Jovielle, Sam, Karla, Chelsea, Betina, Regina, Hanna, Margie, Nica, Paige and Michelle.
Woo! I'm excited to be classmates with these two girls again. :D But that's the only thing I'm going to be excited about with my section. :)) Oh, I'm excited for the field trip and retreat too! I hope we won't go back to Philip's Sanctuary any same place for our field trip. I will not join if that happens. No way. :))
Jonina, Christine and Vielka are in Mornese. We're far from each other! Turin is keeping us apart. :))) No KCHAMJDV is in Turin. :)) We don't know Klariza's section yet because we haven't seen her name in any of the lists. :-? I wonder what happened to her . . . Hmm, I hope she's just late for enrollment or something. :-/
Aww, Christine and I aren't classmates. And I got separated from Jonina and Vielka. Haha. :)) And my other friends are there too, like Abby . . . Haha okay I forgot the others I only remembered Abby. :)) Oh, and Eminence and Raya are there too . . . So sad. :)) But I have to accept what I've gotten. XD
I viewed the comments on the pictures that Karen tagged. They were pictures of our current sections. They said they weren't going to switch sections because they have to "accept what Bro gave them." :D So I guess I oughtta too! XD
I am excited and nervous for next week. I wonder who our adviser will be. I hope he/she is a new teacher. Haha. XD

My brackets fell off. Again.
I don't know what happened. But maybe it was because I slept sideways last Saturday night, so when I woke up Sunday morning, one was moving, and it was detached. Then we went to the dentist today to glue it back. Then two more fell off! Wow. I am so . . . I don't know the word for it. :)) I just wish it won't fall off again until the next time we go to the dentist, on June 13.
We don't have classes on June 14, right? :D

Saturdays.
I had nothing to do last Saturday. Mom was using the laptop so we couldn't use it. :)) During the afternoon, dad bought us pizza and potato halves from Yellow Cab. We were starting to get our normal life back. =)) That's what we thought. :)) We still couldn't eat it properly!
I even had to cut the pizza piece by piece because it still hurts to swallow it. I really miss eating pizza like there was no tomorrow. :)) Now I have to be careful, and I never feel full anymore when I eat. Now that is a big change. :)) I couldn't even eat those potato halves properly. And for our dinner, dad bought food from Chowking. We had yang chow. :D But to my surprise, I couldn't finish them. Really. That was the very first time in my life that that happened. I really felt nervous because, what if another bracket fell off and I actually swallow it? I still couldn't get over the tragedy that happened the day before. Haha! :)) So I didn't finish it.
Then, I was getting bored. There was nothing to watch on TV, I couldn't get on the laptop, the desktop computer was slower than a turtle. And it even spontaneously shuts down. I was playing a mystery game, and then it "passed out." [ I like that expression. XD ] I didn't even bother to turn it on anymore.
The piano (or organ, or, I don't know, whatever XD) was right beside the desktop. So I turned it on. We got it from our aunt, but none from our family (I mean the four of us) actually knows how to play. :)) Anyways, I turned it on, and played the C chord on the organ. Then I realized it sounds like the intro for the song "Imagine." So I started playing and blah blah blah . . . I now know the song. :D
That's the only song on piano that I know how to play. I know another one, but I forgot. :)) And I'm also working on "Let It Be!" :D

One of my brackets fell off.
Or braces.
It happened today.
I was eating noodles in front of the computer (haha) and I felt something moving inside my mouth. I always felt something moving in my mouth and because of my paranoia I always think it's the braces (or brackets) falling apart. So I went to the mirror to check. I put one finger in my mouth and I touch to see if the braces at the sides were still there. Fortunately they were still there. But then when I removed my finger, it kind of stuck onto one of the braces and it fell off!
I didn't know what to do at that very moment. I just texted dad and mom. It was a good thing dad came home from . . . somewhere. Haha. :)) Anyway, my mom replied and told me to keep it. I also told Danielle about it. So I kept the brace (I almost said tooth hahaha!) in the place where I put my glasses. =)) I didn't have anywhere else to put it! It was so small. :)) And then Danielle told me to chat with the dentist. So I did. And then he said we should come there. So we went there, just a while ago. Phew!
It only took a few minutes. Then the dentist said the wire was already long, so it means improvement! Yey! :D I was glad to hear that. :D
Wow. I promise I'll be more careful this time! And I mean careful, not paranoid. :))
You know, of all my blogs for this summer, I think this is the only one that actually happened today. Haha! Care to correct me? :D

My racing heart
Okay, so school's starting in less than two weeks. Excited?
Yeah. I'm going to see my friends!! Of course, that's the only thing anyone's going to be excited for when they get back to school. :)) Nervous? Yes. Why? One, because I'm going to see someone I don't really want to see or talk to. :P Two, because we're going to learn new things again. I mean I want to learn new things, but things like Camp Half-Blood or monsters in the Underworld or the stirring monsters and stuff like that. [ Haha sorry, I still haven't gotten over Percy. :P :)) ]
Good news: I received this good news a long time ago from Vince. He said that the Department of Education has a new rule that the Junior Year won't be included in the grades of the graduating students who are going to be in the honor roll. Yes!! :D I have a chance! =)) That is very cool. I can still relax this Junior Year! \m/ Haha! I'm kidding . . . XD I'm still going to "work hard."
Bad news: We are going to have only three sections for our level . . . Yeah, three. Just three. While the Freshmen and Sophomores have four. What about that spare section in the second floor? What's that supposed to be? Great. There are too many of us in the class. How are we going to be able to concentrate? Too many noisy classmates . . . Noooooooooooo! I mean if we are going to have three sections we should be able to pick! :)) Or at least one section will be for the bullies so that we wouldn't be disturbed. Right? Right? Haha. :P I was soooooo excited to have the four sections and then we will receive this news? That's. . . .
I learned a new song! I heard it on American Idol last night, it's from Will Young. It's actually the song they use every time a finalist gets eliminated. :)) And it's the song in my blog right now! :D I like the lyrics. I can relate to it. I mean that's what happened to me before. :P :))
"I think I better leave right now before I fall any deeper."

Slacker
Raina is the queen of procrastination! :)) XD Or so she says. XD She said that when she was still studying her goal was to finish all her homework before Sunday night at 1am. Haha! She's actually worse than me! :)) Now you can see why she's my role
model. XD
Okay, but this blog isn't about homework or school or even Raina. It's about me and my writing skills. Haha! I wouldn't say "skills" exactly, because I think I lost it. Or maybe I didn't even have it. O__O
I really love writing. I really do. It's the thing I've been doing ever since I was just a little kid. But at that time I was just writing playwrights or screenplays or . . . I don't know, whatever people call them. :)) I started writing a novel form kind of story just this year. I forgot the first one, but I could remember them all. I think. XD
There was one story I made, I think there was a girl on their prom night or something . . . and then her boyfriend went away and then she and another guy looked for him and they found him at a tree house and dead. Then the girl was shocked and afraid because she knew the reason why he committed suicide. Oh, by the way, the guy who came with her is in love with her.
I know, it's kinda corny! But I have a thing for mystery and thriller stories mixed with romance, because that's what makes it so dramatic! :D Sadly, I didn't continue that one.
There was another one, there was this girl and there was this guy . . . This girl had a boyfriend and this guy liked her ever since time began. Then they got sent to a beach and the girl discovers that she loves him. :))))))))))) Oh, I finished this one. But it isn't a great story. I think it was pretty predictable. It had a good ending. The girl's boyfriend was caught cheating on her. Yeah! :)) And she ended up with the guy. Haha. I hate talking about this, it's such a cheesy story. :))
I planned to have a sequel about that, actually. XD They got married and they have a daughter and she hates this guy but ends up loving him . . . :))
I have a story entitled The Inseparable. I think it's corny, but Abby doesn't. [Wow! :D] Anyway, it's about a spoiled rich girl who gets anything she wants and gets away with it . . . until she's caught drunk at a party by her family's bodyguards. She likes someone in that party and that's why she went there. But then, as I said, the bodyguards caught her. One of them is about her age and was kind of adopted by her parents. When her parents came back to their house (er, mansion), she was punished, but not by grounding, since that was the punishment she had escaped from. So her parents decide that she will always stick with one of their bodyguards, the one about her age. He's going to school with her and they'll be together twenty-four seven until the punishment is up. And you know what happens now. The girl will change for the better and she falls in love with the bodyguard. But there will be a twist. I just don't know what that is yet. XD
I have another story. It's kinda complicated because there are a lot of characters, and it's hard to explain even in here. But as usual, it's kinda typical, so I decided not to continue that one. :P
I was also planning to make a story about me and my friends! Of course our names won't be there. :)) I shared this with Michelle a long time ago and I liked her ideas, but I haven't pushed through with it yet. It's about eight friends who fight with each other or fight with others or fight with other groups. :)) Okay not really but that'll be what would bring them together in the end. XD (We're not like that. XD)
And the latest story I'm working on is . . . It's untitled. :)) But it isn't a love story for the first time! XD There's a girl who has a monster for a little sister. They're not really related, they just found her lying in a basket and her family took her in. And then there's a girl in her school that she hates because they're rivals in academics. But then they team up so that her little sister will get back to her real family . . . Yeah, I dunno what the next part will be yet. Maybe her parents will be aliens that will take over the world or something. Haha! Now that's cool. XD
Unfortunately I am a very lazy and I won't be able to finish these. I'll try. :))

Up-dating :))
Thursday
Ate Jessica woke us up. She was asking mom if we could go to EK. And we can! My cousin Ryan and her mom, our aunt, was coming. Only the three of us went: me, Danielle and Ate Jessica. Mom and dad were going to fetch our relatives. And if they came early, Ryan could catch up with us on EK. So we went there. We rode most of the rides, except Swan Lake, Wheel of Fate . . . I think that's pretty much it! But I didn't ride the Log Jam and Flying Fiesta. I just didn't want to die. Of fear. :)) We also ate mini donuts! Man, I love those! And for our next snack time, Danielle and Ate Jessica bought fries, and I ate the Stir Fried Rice. Yep. That was for my snacks. =)) I was hungry, and I was losing time for eating the food I want. We also ate Choconanas twice! Yummy! x) Oh, and I got to watch Dora on 4D again. Yeah!! \m/ :)) And for our last ride, we went to Rio Grande Rapids. Our second time there we were with a bunch of college people. :)) And they were cursing. [-( Haha. And one girl was lifting up her bag because her reviewer was there and it might be soaked in the water. :)) We also went to the arcade before going home. :)) Then we went outside EK and our parents picked us up. Auntie Delin and Ryan were also there in the car. Then we went home. :))
Friday
Ate Jessica woke up early for her flight to America. We didn't come with her. Then we all woke up. In the morning we just sang at the karaoke. :)) And then we watched America's Next Top Model. Woo! Go Raina! :)) I didn't think we finished that. Then we went to SM. My mom and aunt went shopping while Danielle, Ryan, dad and I watched Shrek: Forever After. It was the first Shrek movie I ever watched. Ever. :)))) But it was a very funny movie. :D They sang a lot of songs - songs I actually know. From Glee! :)) XD When we were finished mom and my aunt were still shopping! :)) Then dad went to find them, while Danielle, Ryan and I went to Tom's World to play. XD When we went out it was late in the evening! I forgot what time. We didn't eat there at SM because it was already closing. We all went to the car. We learned that mom almost lost her phone. Oh no! Haha! :)) Then we ate at Tuding's. We went home just in time for PBB. Yehey. :))
Saturday
We all woke up early. At least . . . we were supposed to. :)) Anyway, after we prepared, we went to school to pick up our uniform and pictures. There was a soccer game with some other schools including DLSC. I watched a bit. Then we went to the high school lobby. My sister and I toured Ryan around the building. Then we went to the car and drove to Tagaytay. Unfortunately the traffic was very heavy, so we decided to turn around and head to Nuvali. We had fun feeding the fish - they're really big now! Then we rode the taxi boat. Then fed the fish again! :)) Finally we ate at Pig Out. Yeah, we really pigged out there. XD After that we went to Metropolis. Danielle, Ryan and I played at Tom's World again. :D When we were tired (out of money) we went to our parents. Ryan and Danielle bought a few CDs, by the way. You know, the CDs where there are a lot of games. Yeah. :D So when we went home they installed it in our laptop, so I get to play a lot of games now! :D Before that we ordered food at McDo. Guess what I ordered. Two meals of chicken with rice. Yeah, two. My servicemates and some of friends know this. What? I needed to eat before "the big day." :)))) That's why I pigged out that day. XD Of course, I always eat a lot of food. I love food! :D
Sunday
The alarm clock woke me up. I really wanted to sleep some more, but (a) there was something inside of me that kept saying "It's the big day! You have to be there on time! Gotta be early! Wake up, man!!" and (b) the alarm clock was far away from my bed so I had to get down and turn it off. I woke my sister up. She was hard to wake up. :)) After we prepared, we left. Auntie Delin and Ryan were still there and they stayed at home because they just woke up. :)) Then we were off! When we arrived, the dentist that was going to put those thingies in our teeth didn't arrive yet. We waited for about an hour, I think. I was texting and reading the Sea of Monsters. :D Dad left because Auntie Delin and Ryan were dressed and prepared and they went to Tagaytay. Then the dentist arrived. I was really scared before this day came, because I thought she was going to be a big meanie and scary-looking and not have patience because of my monster teeth. But when she and her assistant came, I saw that she was kinda young, and I was taller than her! :)) My sister went first. They were only going to put the brackets (or braces I'm not really sure) on her upper teeth and then an appliance (a thing that'll make her look like she only has upper teeth) on her lower teeth because they were too low. They worked on her upper brackets (or braces) for an hour. Then it was my turn. How can I put this in details? I just won't. I'm just going to tell you that when my mouth was open for a really long time, I was drooling. A lot. It's not very attractive. =)) But can I help it? :))) That process (the putting the brackets or braces on my teeth, not the drooling) was for two hours. Haha! Wow! Success! I chose the color blue by the way. Of course! :D Then the main dentist put on the appliance on Danielle's lower teeth. It was scary because it was raining outside and the power was turning on and off and on and off, but good thing it was only for a few seconds. After that mom, Danielle and I walked to Walter Mart, to Tropical Hut to eat lunch. Mom ordered soup and fries. But we didn't eat the fries because we couldn't. We felt the ache of the braces. Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Until now we couldn't eat. So that was the first day I started a diet. A mandatory diet. Haha!

Teeth
Yesterday we went to a "secret place." At least, it was supposed to be a secret. But then Hanna and Aivette and Jonina and Miguel found out. Dammit!
It was because of Sam. Tsk! Haha. I should have told her to keep it a secret. :)) But it's out now.
Okay, I'll start from the beginning. Of our day yesterday. And how Sam got involved. :))
We all woke up really early yesterday morning. Dad, because he drove the car for mom when she goes to work. Mom, going to work. Me and my sister, because we were going to the dentist (with dad of course).
Yep. To the dentist. That could only mean one thing. We (my sister and I) are finally going to have braces. YES!!
When we first got there, the dentist wasn't. We were told to come back. We ate lunch at home, then after about an hour we went back. We met the dentist. He checked on our teeth though it didn't take a long time. Then he told us we should get an x-ray of our teeth. We were writing our information on his notebook or something, then Sam and her mom went inside. Yeah. Whoa! We were surprised. Haha. We knew the dentist was Miguel's dentist, but we didn't know it was also Sam's. But now we do. So that's how Sam knew. :))
Anyway, we went to Balibago to have the x-ray. While waiting we watched The Blind Side! Yey. But we didn't finish it. We didn't even get to the half of the movie. Haha! After getting our x-rays, we went back to the dentist. He checked our tooth x-ray and said something about our third molar, blah blah blah. Haha. Then he said it was too late for our jaw and for us to eat veggies. :(
So remember kids, eat vegetables while you are young. Ignore the distastefulness, remember that you need it to stay alive.
So that you won't be taken by Hades or Kronos.
Haha. Kidding. I just decided to include that one. I'm finished with The Battle of the Labyrinth and read the sneak peek of The Last Olympian. I hate Rachel Elizabeth Dare. I'm anxious to find out what will happen to Percy and Annabeth. Waa!

Adventures!
I bought Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief last Wednesday, right? At ATC when I was with my friends.
And now I can't stop. XD I got addicted to it! I finished it on Thursday. Then we were stuck at home on Friday. I planned to buy the next two books of the series on Saturday when I go to ATC with my family.
I didn't buy the two books. Because I bought the next three. :))) I'm an addict! I knew I'd be able to finish the two books before the next weekend and I'd have nothing to do by then. I am now currently on the fourth book, The Battle of the Labyrinth. Ooooo! It's Percy and Annabeth! They are so cute. XD I really like their "love story!" :D
The last book (am I right?) is The Last Olympian. When I searched in the computer thingy when we went to National Book Store, it was twice or thrice the price (haha it rhymes :D) of the first four books. Dammit. I was out of money. Which means I have to save to buy that. And I only get "paid" during the school year. So I had to wait to read more of Percy's adventures!
During the afternoon I learned that only the hardbound copies of the book are currently being sold. No paperback?! T_T Well, at least no paperback yet. But then the paperback copies will be sold . . . in six months! How am I supposed to wait for that? November? Noooooooooooooooo! I want to buy them already. I guess I could buy the hardbound one, but it would be different from the other Percy adventures. But I really, really want to find out what will happen to Percy when he turns sixteen. Is the prophecy about him? Will the fate of the Olympians (and possibly ours) depend on him? Will he be defeated by Kronos with his fatal flaw? And the most important question of all . . . What will happen to him and Annabeth? [I haven't finished book 4 yet so I don't know what's the latest "update" of their relationship. :))] I could go on and on with these questions, but for the sake of the non-Percy fans, I'll stop.
Never mind my question about the fate of the Olympians and our fate. Of course it's not real. [I wish it was real. I want to be like Annabeth. =))] But in the book it is. I think. Hm. I don't know . . . I'm so addicted to it now. I never thought I'd be, but here I am now. Going on and on about Greek mythology and Percy's adventures. Haha. How can you not? It opened up my imagination. And I've loved Greek mythology ever since I knew about it. Plus it kept me un-bored this summer. I'm laying off on the computer now because of Percy. Wee! :D
How I wish I could buy The Last Olympian already!

I call it Sophistication Part 2 :))
I woke up to the really loud sound of the alarm clock this Wednesday. We forgot to take our 1x1 picture before so we had to rush. Good thing there was one in Sta. Rosa. Then we arrived at school. I saw Jonina and Michelle. Michelle was really tall! I thought she was taller than me, but that ended when I looked down I saw she wore heels. A wave of relief passed by me. =)) I grew! Only half an inch, but that's fine by me. XD Then we proceeded with the enrollment. Thalia came and gave me the gifts. Then we picked up our books and went to the fitting of uniforms. Regina was there and told me that our Math books were MSA! And I saw them. Wow! Harder math this time. Coooooooooooooooooooooooooool. I hope I can still understand and do my best. :)) The Chemistry book was also thick. And AP is not anymore AP, it's Social Studies! \m/ After fitting, dad went in line to pay for the uniforms, then Danielle and I put our books back at the car. We went back to the building.
I went to CHAMJDV. We waited for Michelle's dad so we can convince him to let Michelle and Irish come with us. And . . . yes! She's allowed! That was very cool because it was last minute. :)) Too bad Danielle didn't go! We thought they weren't coming. Aww. Haha. :)) Then we went to Vielka's van. [Was it a van? I don't know. I'm not good with cars. :))] We were in the middle, me, Vielka, Irish and Ate Alayne, and the others were in the back. We were talking and talking and we finally reached ATC. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
We went to the movies first. Didn't watch yet, though. Vielka just bought the tickets so we can have seats for the movie we were going to watch, which is The Last Song, a novel by Nicholas Sparks, starring Miley Cyrus and Liam Hensworth. Then we were hungry. [Actually, I think we were hungry even before that. :)))] We decided to eat at KFC. At first we were supposed to by our own lunch, but Vielka bought the bucket and we brought them to our table. Then we ate. That was one good lunch. Thank you Vielka! x)
I forgot what we did next. :-? :)) Oh! We went to National Book Store! I bought The Lightning Thief! Because I was getting sick of Nicholas Sparks's love stories. :))) So there. And Vielka bought Hush Hush. She was also supposed to buy Shadowland, but unfortunately it wasn't sold there. We also looked at some of the books. Haha. Where did we go next? I think to Powerbooks. We looked at the gift thingies. XD I saw one (I won't tell you what, it might spoil the fun) that I planned to give Klariza cause she wasn't there. Haha. Vielka bought Shadowland there. We hung out for a while and watched the silent (because I think the volume was really low) trailer of The Last Song, then headed out to Starbucks.
We bought our drinks, then we rested there for like an hour. After a while, we were quiet. Vielka and I read our newly bought books. Christine and Hanna were listening to music, Jonina was texting (ehem ehem), Michelle was waiting for load I think, and Irish and Aivette were writing something. :-/ Then we went outside to go to the movies. But first, we went to some shops. Yeah. I forgot their names. XD We went shopping . . . Window shopping, that is. :)) Then we headed to the movies! :D
Well, we went to the CR first. :)) Then finally we went to the theater. The trailers were showing. Some of us bought food, then got settled to watch the movie. And finally, there. Whew! The movie was okay. Miley and Liam kissed a million times. But they cried during the part where . . . Nah, I'm not gonna spoil you. You're just gonna have to watch it [or read the book] to find out. :)) I didn't cry because I knew what was going to happen. XD After that, we went back to the CR and headed outside the theater. We saw Hanna's mom. She talked to her for a while then rejoined us, then we went to Dairy Queen.
We were eating and talking, then Aivette dropped from her seat! That was shocking. I think she got traumatized by that. :)) After that, we went for the window shopping extravaganza. :)) We went to a lot of stores! That was really long. Then we went to the food court (but just in the CR, really). Then went to Hanna's mom and said goodbye to her. We weren't hungry so we decided to go home. Well, we waited for Christine's mom and then said goodbye to her too in Powerbooks. I continued reading about Percy Jackson while waiting for Vielka's parents. Oh, I also bought a really cool bookmark. It's kind of like not a bookmark, but it is. It's hard to explain . . . Oh, there comes Vielka's family! :))
So we rode again at their van to get home. We dropped Aivette at her house after several minutes of waiting at Bel-Air McDo. Then we were off to Walter. Michelle and Jonina left, I was the last one. And so I went home. Wee. :))
So that's it. I finally blogged it. Sorry for the delay, I was too busy reading Percy Jackson. :D

Beach x)
I'm sorry, I've been putting off this blog for the last week. I was too lazy. But now I'm ready to blog this. :D
Last Saturday, we woke up early because we were going to Batangas to swim. I was the earliest to wake up. Wanna know what time? 1am. Haha. Yeah. I wanted to sleep some more but somehow I wasn't able to. So I played with my phone until about 4am. I turned on the lights (because I was scared) and the TV and watched a few shows. Then Dad opened the door and asked if I was hungry. Yes, I was very hungry that time. Then my sister woke up too. We ate the instant noodles then waited for mom and Ate Jessica to wake up.
So we were all awake. We were about to go, I think, then Ate Jessica pointed to a bottle of sunblock and asked if we had that. Mom couldn't find it in her and dad's room. Then we were all freaking out and about to not go just because we couldn't find the freaking sunblock. :)) We searched all the bags but we still couldn't find it. Then I saw it! In my sister's pink (ew) bag. So we all went in the car and started our way to Batangas. x)
I updated my Twitter via my phone. Then I slept. And then woke up and felt dizzy. Then slept again. I think we almost got lost. :)) I slept and slept and we finally arrived at Virgin Beach Resort. Mom went to the office, and then dad parked the car. Mom ordered lunch for us. Yummy! :D:D After lunch, we went to the comfort room. I changed my shorts then we went to our . . . I don't know if it could be called a cottage, but it's kinda like that. We put on the sunblock and finally went for the waters! \m/ But it was only me, Danielle and Ate Jessica. Haha.
We swam and swam. x) Then Ate Jessica picked up some rocks by the shore and threw it. I mean tried skipping rocks. One time while we were in there she skipped a lot of rocks! Nice. \m/ Dad joined us for a while, then went back to mom. Then after two hours we went back to our "cottage" and rested there for a while. After only a few minutes we went back to the water. \m/ :)) By the way, Ate Jessica saw a fish! O_O Haha!
Mom joined us in the water. We saw the fish again. And then we saw a jellyfish too! We got scared because it might shock us. We went away from that then rested on the shore with mom. She went out, and after a few more minutes, the three of us went out too. We hit the showers then ate some food for merienda. Wee! But the service was kinda slow even though we were the only customers at the time. (annoyed) Plus the price was . . . well, very pricey. Hahahahaha.
After that, we finally took off. I slept. Again. :D But with Ate Jessica and Danielle too. When I woke up the three were asleep, and it was dark. X_X I went back to sleep, then I woke up again. All of us were awake already. It was hot. The windows were open. And it was traffic. Then I found out that we were almost out of gas. And it was traffic. That one took our time. 8-| Dammit. Mom walked to the nearest gas station which was far. It was supposed to be near but because of the damn traffic, the trip there was a long time. After several minutes we finally had gas. Wee! But it was still traffic. ~x(
We kept seeing signs that the exit to Calamba was near but it really wasn't. Dammit. [-( It was still traffic . . . But finally, we were at the highway! I think. :)) Or expressway. Hmm, I'm not sure, really. :)) Then we stopped at the Total Gas Station. I think that's what it was. Jollibee was the only open restaurant or fast food chain - whatever :)) - because it was the only one open 24 hours and it was past 11pm. There were a lot of people, we had to wait about thirty minutes for the food. Then my mom accidentally ordered Coke Zero which I had come to hate after loving it so much. Ugh. :-&
And my short was short, just like the one I wore during the field trip. Man. It was probably shorter than that. X_X It was very cold and my legs were sore.
Then we went home. Haha. Yey!
The laziness back. :)) Sorry!

First Time XD
So one night, I woke up at midnight. Haha. I couldn't sleep. I played with my phone and went to the notes and made one about my new experiences during my Sophomore year. See, I really like to look back. :D
June
1. It's the first time I had an adviser who is young and looks like a celebrity. Applause! :))
July
2. Our sitting arrangement for the whole first quarter: choose your own!! I had Jonina and Vielka for my seatmates. That was great. :D
August
3. The first time we had a field trip in that kind of stupid, ugly, crappy place. I hated it there, but nonetheless, it's a new experience.
September
4. I was confirmed, a once in a lifetime experience. I am a mature teenager now! :D
5. It was the first time I stayed overnight in another school, in DB Canlubang. I also saw a childhood friend! I'll never forget that overnight stay. :]
6. The first time an overnight in school was finished earlier than scheduled because of a typhoon. If we stayed there until afternoon, we could have been stranded! Haha.
October
7. The first time we didn't have a semestral break! Stupid swine flu. (annoyed) Haha.
8. The first KCHAMJDV Day! That's the first time I was allowed to go to a friend's house and swim there with a bunch of friends. \m/ Wee! :D
November
9. That was my first and probably last time to participate in a Readers' Theater contest. Haha. :)) And I only had one line. XD
December
10. I submitted my Drafting project which I worked oh-so-hard on. And why is it a big deal? Because it's the first time I worked hard for a project. Any project. Ever. In my entire life. :))
11. My first time to sing in front a [big] audience with my classmates! Embarrassing, actually. XD
12. That was also my first time to "ditch" my service during the Christmas Party because we were going to a friend's house. \m/ Woo! XD
13. It was the first time I read a Nicholas Sparks novel. The novel was Dear John. I got so hooked that I started to read every Sparks novel there is. :))
January
14. My first totally redeeming card distribution day moment XD I love my individual grades because most of them increased, which means my average increased. Yey! :D
15. My first time to participate in the Sports Fest. Sure, I played soccer for Valdocco and cheered for the Savio boys, but I really felt it this time. I loved playing soccer with the Faenza girls and cheering during the games. Win or lose, it's okay. But of course it's better if we won. =)))
16. I was marriage booth-ed for the first time. But we got divorced before we were even married. (How is that possible?) Haha. XP
February
17. The first time I SuperUnli-ed :)) XD I made a lot of conference calls. And it was the first time I talked to Jenna! (on the phone) What did we talk about? Secret >:))))
18. It was the first time I wore a working outfit. Ever. With the blouse and the blazer and skirt and the heels! Oh, the heels! T_T My feet were sore that day and the day after that. :'( But it was fun because I got to experience being a teacher. I had two hours of free time! XD
19. First time the class - my class at least - united (not that we're not united all the time, we are united all the time XD) to make a gratitude day present. We had shooting! XD Memorable activity. Haha.
March
20. First time to be cramped in the CDBS official service :))) We were at Lakeshore that day. Oh, we found out who were included in the Top 7! I was the last T_T Haha. Anyway, we saw some of our old classmates! :D
21. That was the very first time I stayed up until about midnight to make the projects. I was so relieved when that was over. And I so don't wanna go back there again. Haha!
22. During the NAT I stepped for the very first time inside the Japanese room in my High School life so far. Stayed there the whole day, actually. Ah, the aircon coldness XD
23. That was also the day - the first and only day - that I had beautiful hair. That moment lasted for two minutes.
24. My first apostolate! It was in Elsie Gatches. It was unforgettable. :]
25. Another unforgettable day was our last day with Faenza. :'( With the food fight and everything :)) We made a mess, and cleaned it up ourselves - all of us! :D
26. It was the first time I went to Nuvali . . . with my friends. XD Total laugh trip! Sophistication! =))
Wow. 26 is such a lucky number for my second year in High School. :D
