Advance happy birthday sa aking lola(may 31)!!!

ewan

putragis na APE na yan. syet. pinasakit ng todo ang utak ko. Kung sabagay, kasalanan ko rin lang naman eh. Nung april 5 ako nag-apply which gives me two weeks to review. I spent fourteen days reading novels, magazines and comics. I spent two days to learn college Algebra and plane trigonometry. two days. haha. kaya I'm positive na bagsak ako dun sa exam at tanging isang himala lang ang pwedeng magpasa sa akin. pero sabi nga nila "never forget that the probability of a miracle, though infinitesmally small, is not exactly zero"

***

matagal-tagal na rin yung huling beses na pinag-tripan ang middle name ko. Si Gerda ang nag-pauso ng mga linyang to nung GS:

Danielle Patacsil

went to Bacsil

because she is a taksil

blah blah.. basta puro nagra-rhyme.

kailan lang ay isang APO(Alpha Phi Omega) member ang nag-"trip" sa middle name ko. "Danielle, nakakatakot naman 'tong middle name mo!... di bale, mukha ka namang loyal eh"

Belated Happy Birthday kina Morris (April 11) at Patrick (april 17)

Advance Happy Birthday kay Wesley Gonzales (July 27)

summer sunshine

I love/hate summer vacation.
sobrang init kasi- as in sobra - tapos there's nothing to do except sleep, watch TV (sinusulit ko na kasi dun sa boarding house sa Diliman eh wala akong sariling TV) and eat.
at syempre, surfing the net. haha. I've been looking for the website (if there is any) of CMLI/JC-NEB. gusto ko kasing sumali sa JC-NEB (if possible). naalala ko lang kasi nung grade school ako; nag-attend ako ng graders' conference/convention ng CMLI (at ang unang pumapasok sa utak ko eh si ... *drumroll* Cyrus "people in the house! superb!") masaya yung conference kaso na-miss ko yung "heart of the convention", yung CD (Commission Discussion) dahil pag may CD, bumabalik ako sa room, natutulog ("di ko naman ka-CD si cyrus, bakit pa ako a-attend dun? matutulog na lang ako!")
kaya kung may mga taong makakatulong sa akin, e-mail nyo ako

dahil wala na akong magawa, i took a quiz on what major to take. the result is

You scored as Engineering. You should be an Engineering major! Engineering 100% Psychology 100% Biology 83% Chemistry 83% Sociology 75% Philosophy 67% Mathematics 67% Journalism 67% Theater 67% Art 67% English 50% Linguistics 42% Anthropology 33% Dance 17% What is your Perfect Major? (PLEASE RATE ME!!<3) created with QuizFarm.com

ewan ko lang. tingin ko eh hindi to reliable kasi ang konti nung scope nung quiz. wala pang computer-related or something like that. pero ok lang kasi at least pwede kong utoin ang sarili ko na tama ang desisyon ko take up chem/comp engg. haha. ang babaw ko.

Best letter

Dear Dad,

Ipagpaumanhin nyo ni Mommy ang pagsulat ko sa inyo para ipaalam
na akoy aalis na sa inyong poder.Ako'y sasama na sa aking bagong boyfriend na si
Mark dahil gusto kong takasan na kayo ni Mommy. Natagpuan ko na kay Mark ang
tunay na pagmamahal at napakabait nya sa akin, napaka malambing nya hindi tulad
ng iba kong naging boyfriend. Alam ko na pag nakilala nyo sya ay magugustuhan
nyo din siya, lalo na ang kanyang mga hikaw, tattoo nya sa lahat ng parte ng
kanyang katawan at ang pang motorsiklo nyang damit.Hindi lang sa pagkakaiba nya
Dad kaya ko sya mahal na mahal, eto ay dahil sa buntis ako at sabi ni Mark na
gusto nyang magkaanak sya sa akin para lalo kaming sumaya sa aming pagsasama.
Kahit na matanda sya sa akin (42 na sya Dad, di pa naman matanda sa ngayon and
edad nya diba?) kahit na wala syang pera, di naman eto hadlang sa aming
relasyon, hindi ba Dad? Syanga pala Dad, maraming CD collection si Mark, meron
din syang trailer na truck na kung saan doon kami magsasama, pinakang bahay na
namin ang trailer, at marami na rin syang stock na panggatong para magamit namin
sa buong buwan ng taglamig. Totoo na meron pa syang ibang girlfriend pero alam
ko na magiging tapat sya sa akin sa kanyang sariling pamamaraan, sa katunayan
gusto nyang marami
kaming anak at eto ang isa sa aking ambisyon. Tinuruan na
nga pala nya akong humithit ng marijuana at masarap ang pakiramdam, sa katunayan
nagtanim na sya para ipagpalit sa aming mga kaibiga! n ng shabu, ecstasy na
gusto namin.

Dad, sana ipagdasal mo na matuklasan na ang gamot sa AIDS para
gumaling na si Mark, kasi deserving naman sya na gumaling!! Huwag kang mag alala
Dad 15 years old na ako at alam ko na kung paano pangalagaan ang aking sarili.
Makikita mo Dad, ipagmamalaki mo rin ako at balang araw bibisita kami sa inyo
para naman makilala mo ang iyong mga apo.

Nagmamahal mong anak,

Clarence

PS: Dad, hindi totoo mga sinabi ko sa sulat. Nandito lang ako
sa kapitbahay, pinapaalala ko lang sa iyo na mas marami pang dapat ikatakot sa
buhay kesa aking report card na nasa drawer. Pakipirmahan na lang po at tawagan
ako kung safe na akong umuwi dyan sa bahay.

I love you

When I recieved this e-mail, it gave me some idea of what to do just in case I get a tres or cinco in college. hehe.

long time no post

APRIL 3, 2006 – GRADUATION DAY

Most people have mixed emotions during graduation – the feeling of happiness as we “reap the fruits of our hardships”, sadness as we will now be apart and excitement as we now start to journey into college. But I do not have that “mixed emotions”.
All I know is that I am happy. Super happy. I mean I graduated as First Honorable Mention. Yes, it wasn’t what I really aspired for, but it’s close. Aside from that, I was able to fulfill some of the items in my ‘Goals for Fourth Year’ list which I wrote April of last year. I’m graduating. I’m going to college, that’s what I was thinking that night. As the video which showed pictures of the seniors, I did not reminisce any of those moments. I do not feel sad because my classmates, friends and I will be separated. I’ve already released myself from the tie that binds me and high school. I’m not in the mood to cry or get sentimental.

Di ko ma-explain basta masaya lang ako.

APRIL 4, 2006 – LORENZ’ RECOGNITION DAY
Our graduation program was finished at around 10PM and we arrived home at around 12PM. I was a bit puyat and I asked Mama if it’s okay if I wouldn’t come to his recognition. Sabi nya unfair daw kasi pumunta naman si Renz sa graduation ko. I was expecting to see my grade school batchmates pero recognition lang pala ngayon, iba pa yung graduation.

APRIL 5, 2006 - BARTH'S GRADUATION DAY

While I was listening to the message of the speaker, I was kind of wishing that someday, Lorma Grade School would invite me as the speaker for graduation. Probably, when Paul graduates. Di ba ang saya. I'll be the youngest speaker for a commencement program. (ASA)

APRIL 6, 2006

We went to UP-Diliman for me to apply for the APE in Math 11 and Math 14. We also went to the College of Engineering. I was reading the bulletin boards there and learned that Julius is graduating with honors. ang galing naman talaga.
