Something to post about during this two-week long vacation.

I AM FINALLY FREE AS A BIRRRRRRD!

…Academic-wise, that is. There’s still tons of Org duties, and then the OrSem for the Freshmen; but those things and academic things are way different from each other. I like doing the latter ones more.

Anyhow, daily narration of events!

> Woke up at around… whatever, since I didn’t really sleep anyway and just studied all night for my Econ Finals. Or at least tried to. All I remember happening was this: read one quiz paper, get drowsy, take a five minute nap, then read again, then take a nap again. I don’t know how those information managed to stay in my head. Haha!

> Studied even more in the morning, and then prepared for the finals. Had a long day ahead, so I had all the things I needed to do today planned and written in my ever handy dandy iPhone. Got to school at nine, stopped by the library to return the Economics book I borrowed for the whole summer, and went with Fielle to the venue of the exams. We came there with twenty more minutes to study. Good.

> One by one, my friends and classmates arrived, and soon enough, professor also got there and had the room opened for us. Took the test for around two hours - I made sure that I really got to shade an answer for every question. I was doing okay in the first part of the exam, but then the second half got me all confused and stupefied. Sigh, the troubles with me and economics. Lol.

> Handed my paper in to the professor which marked my ‘freedom.’ I swear my inner self was already spouting such a beautiful language: F*ck yeah, I’m a free bitch, baby! And no one’s gonna stop me! Went out the room and my friends who finished the exam earlier hugged me and we all started screaming like crazy. You can just imagine how much struggle we had this whole semester trying to comprehend the subject that is Economics. Good.

> Had to rush off after that though since I still had another meeting for an org. It was near the exam venue anyway. Meeting was over soon, and then had a small photo shoot for the same org. Good.

> As I mentioned earlier, I had a lot of things planned for today - so I had to rush for another appointment for another org; this one for Student Deputy. Came at the venue fifteen minutes before, and then did my screening for fifteen more minutes. They said they really liked how I spoke and the way my bubbly and lively personality shows in talking to others, soooo I’m just gonna consider that as a very good thing. Yay! 

> I swear, I really feel like my final year in Ateneo will involve a lot of org works. Haha.

> I messaged my Bestest friend in the world after, since we did plan to meet up today after all these months (or a year, even?). We decided where to meet up, and she said she’ll just meet me in Katipunan. Had time to visit Fullybooked like always while I was waiting for her, and finally got to buy presents for my host parents in Japan since it’s both their birthdays this June. Good.

> Bestest arrived at around three, and then we had a super late lunch over at Bonchon. Chatted for a long while, and then went to tour her around my school. It was her dream school too, so she was really happy to walk around the campus. We went to a lot of places and talked about a lot of stuff. It’s been so long since we had dates like this, so it felt so good to be with her again! Good.

> She got to meet a few of my very close friends while we were there; coincidentally too! I felt glad that they also liked each other’s company. Macky suddenly started sharing ghost and horror stories about out school which got Bestest (and I) frightened than we expected. Haha! It felt so good bonding though. Good.

> She had to go home soon since her dad already told her so. Got her a cab, and we talked about another date soon. Hee. Went home to catch American Idol - Congrats to Phillip, by the way. Good.

> Things to do tonight: Org duty 1, Org duty 2, Song Cover Request 1, Song Cover Request 2, Tumblr, Facebook, Twitter. (I am crying happy tears seeing that there isn’t any single school-related thing in this list.) GOOD!

Memories in (moving) photos. | I miss. (Taken with GifBoom)

Nakakatuwa kasi si Mama.

• Dialogue 1
• Ate Elai:Ma! Walang Internet! Wala kasing dial tone yung Bayantel.
• Mama:Tumawag ka sa Bayantel, tanungin mo kung bakit.
• Ako:(sa loob ko) E wala ngang dial tone paano makakatawag.
• Dialogue 2
• Mama:Bumaba ka nga sa baba tanungin mo sa guard kung.. echos echos
• Ako:(sa loob ko) Malamang bababa ka sa baba, alanganamang bumaba ka sa taas.
• Dialogue 3
• Ate Elai:Mama may klase ako ng 12 bukas.
• Mama:Anong oras?
• Ate Elai:12 nga.
• Dialogue 4
• Mama:Erika may papatikim ako sayong ham, binili ko sa grocery. Masarap sya, first time natin titikman.
• Ako:(sa loob ko) Pano naging masarap kung first time pala titikman.
• || Basically what happened yesterday when mom and Sam stayed at the condo. Mom, as always, was being the funny mom she is. We all laughed like idiots when these things happened.
• (Still laughing now!)

• It’s amazing how the brain produces lots and lots of creative juices when you’re pressed for time.
• That’s what I learned in the past two hours while I was doing promotional stuff for a major Org event.
• That also means I haven’t done any studying for my Econ Finals tomorrow.
• So why am I even here posting something so random like this?
• I don’t know.
• I’m just trying to escape Econ.
• And I just want to share how great the mind is.
• Andddd.
• I really need to study.
• …
• ..
• .
• Bye.
• …
• O crap. I just missed Glee’s final episode today.
• Screw you, Econ.

TODAY:

> Woke up early once again to study. I was studying when mom texted me saying she’s gonna drop Sam off here at the condo while she does her weekly Quiapo visit. They arrived at around 9, and then told me they’re actually staying here for the night! Yay.

> Had my final exam for British Literature class today! I had no idea how our professor gives exams, but I’m glad the questions he gave were sort of what I expected them to be. I’m still not sure how he gives grades, but I’m hopeful I get a very good one! Good.

> Passed my Economics research paper right after that; good thing Econ class was adjacent to my BritLit class! I rushed to the org meeting  I was supposed to attend to at 12noon after. Met up with fellow org mates and discussed stuff for RecWeek. We stayed there till three in the afternoon, and then grabbed some late lunch. Good.

> Productive me is happy. Good.

> Went straight home after since I just really want to stay home knowing someone’s there (Sam), and I just don’t really want to stay in school the whole day. It feels great to actually have a family member waiting at home. Good.

> Watched the impeachment trial on television. Everyone’s been tweeting about it and talking about it everywhere. I’m not gonna comment on what I think about the whole thing, but I’m gonna admit it was rather amusing, especially how things ended. Yeah.

> Mom arrived after a few hours, and then went out again with my aunt to do some late grocery shopping. Internet connection got cut off which annoyed everyone of us - lol. Elder sister came home after a while, and Mom and Aunt followed after. It’s almost a full-house! Good.

> Had a feast for dinner since mom was around. Even had cake and other sweets for dessert! Haha. We were able to get the internet after a very long while, too. Dad arrived after dinner. And mom just told us brother’s also coming over to stay for the night, so yeah. It’s probably gonna be a full house. At least, we’re complete! Good.

> Still have a take home quiz to do for Econ class, but I’m doing Org duties first. Actually, I’d rather do any org duty first than do anything econ-related. I have tomorrow for all that suffering for that class. Sigh. Just one more class, just one more! I need to motivate myself. Sigggh.

> Regarding the org thing though, I’m having fun doing it! This is very very fun compared to answering questions I don’t even understand. Haha!

• I just ate dinner.
• Rewarded myself with a fat, delicious, crab for dinner after that draining, excruciating, painful…paper I have to write for Economics class.
• I just…
• So much hate for it I can’t even.
• Or maybe, I’m just really not in the mood to do anything school-related anymore.
• Considering I’ve been studying non-stop since September, with no official vacation at all, and I already forgot what a decent, official summer vacation feels like.
• And I’m forever nocturnal.
• Now that I’m done with the Econ paper, I still have to study for tomorrow’s BritLit finals.
• I don’t even know how he gives exams!
• Or what he’ll actually ask, since our classes have always been group presentations, and we don’t even meet everyday since he still has other personal stuff to do that he doesn’t come to class sometimes, without even notifying us beforehand.
• …Le sigh.
• I just want a vacation. Even just a week-long vacation will do.
• Need to motivate myself.
• Last push
• (!!!)

May 12-13, 2012. | Mothers’ Day spent with the family at Anvaya Cove and Subic in photos.

• I’m back home from attending a birthday party!
• It’s actually Cherry’s brother’s birthday party; I don’t really understand, but for some reason, the family was also invited - and by family, it means only Sam, me, Mom, and Dad since we’re the ones they personally know. Elder brother wasn’t in the mood, and elder sister wasn’t around anyway.
• Chester (Cherry’s brother) is a batch lower than me in the same school. It’s pretty amusing how I got to see his block mates over at their place, and one of them thought I was an incoming freshman. To be honest, I was quite offended, lol. 
• Kidding aside, the whole party was really fun!
• I really really think I’m with the most amusing, adorable, and fun bunch of youngsters (yuck, I sound old). I can just hang out with them all day, and I wouldn’t mind it at all.
• Sister’s lucky to be in this batch.
• I’m a bit envious. Hahaha!
• Oh!
• Also, I’m so happy with my PolSci grades!
• I was a bit scared to check it out once I got back home, since I didn’t want my night to end up bad if ever I don’t get the grade I want, but luckily - I did!
• So happy!!! Thank You, and thank you, Sir Gino!
• I’m also on the third batch for this semester’s enlistment. Got lucky!
• This is a really good night.
• Anyhow, it’s already past 1:00.
• I should really sleep.
• In a while…
