Either I will find a way or I will make one. - Sir Philip Sidney

I didn't read the questions carefully in BOTH exams! How can I be so careless?!! My life depended on those exams... ;_;

First Exam: Third Problem
(During the exam)I know this! It's where I derive the formulas! *looks at the circuit* Okay take it easy girl, you can do it..*after 30 minutes* Argh! This is tricky! I'll solve it later. *moves to the next problem and then finishes answering it, goes back to problem three* Gah.. its so hard... *finishes deriving* Finally. *hears teacher saying its time to pass the papers and submits papers then goes out of the room and discusses the exam with friends* What were your answers in number three? *Nikki answers '1000 rad/sec' while I gasp in horror* How did you get a value? Was there a given value? *Nas answers 'There was, inductance was 20mH'* Oh no! I didn't see those values! T_T

Second Exam: Third Problem (what's with me and the third problem???)
(During the exam)I know this! *reads the exam paper* Aha! A couple eh? *reads 'there is a couple on the midpoint of C and D'* So.. there should be a couple at C and D...

See??? I am so careless!

I'll go hang myself now.

Great works are performed not by strength, but by perseverance. – Samuel Johnson

I just got the result for my last exam in EEE33. It’s awful. I’m getting scared of my grades.

I came home late because of the Miting de Abanse of my organization. Tin’s going to run as VP for Sports and Leisure! ^_^ They asked me to run too, but I think I wont be able to handle it because there are tons of subjects next semester that would require my utmost attention.

I watched Smallville awhile ago. Next week is the season ender! I don’t want people to know Clark’s true identity! -_-;;

Alan gave me a ride home in his Altis. It’s my first time to ride a Toyota Corolla Altis. ^^ Shake your bonbon, shake your bonbon...

Genius, that power which dazzles mortal eyes, is oft but perseverance in disguise. - Henry W. Austin

Argh! Blogger didn't publish my last post! >_<;;;;

As I was saying... I studied. I studied at my neighbor's house (my godmother) because people in the house are too noisy (construction). I feel like it has been a VERY long time since I studied like this. It feels great! :)

Silly me! I didn't know that yesterday was Kuya Glenn's birthday... ^^;;; (naks! Kuya! Nas kami! - we're close!) Belated happy birthday to him! :)

I shouldn't have accepted my cousin's assignment! It so hard to find it on the net.. he should have been the one to get it for himself! No more favors for him!

The secret of success is constancy of purpose – Disraeli

I enjoyed 13 hours of sleep and I feel a lot better. There’s nothing like lots of sleep before the hell week starts again. ^^

I read the reviews in animeokashi and they’re great! I read about X TV Series and Scryed because I’ve been thinking of buying them. I highly recommend reading the reviews before buying. It will make your money worth it. :)

Everything is possible to a man who trusts. – Mark 9:23

Gah! I’m hearing the dubbed Sailormoon music… @_@ and it’s... its nice... ^^ I like it... :) [I like Sailormoon dubs?! There is something terribly wrong with me..^^;;;]

It’s been a while since I last updated this thing. ^^ I got too lazy to blog stuff lately. Anyway, I just finished my report for Social Science and I feel a bit relieved because I’m finally through with it. Next week there will be a lot of exams… ahh... I don’t want to talk about it... ^^

So what’s up? Well, my room is halfway finished and my godmother (which lives next door) offered me one of the rooms in her house while the construction was going on. It’s very tempting since I can’t live with all these dust and insects (there is a sudden population explosion with the mosquitoes! I’ve got mosquito bites all over... ;_;) ...but I’m shy, and I don’t want to abuse her goodwill… ^^ I can still bear it, the dust and everything… I just want everything to be worth it. :)

I’ve watched Chicago! I like that movie, its funny and it has great musical scores. Definitely worth it! I haven’t watched Daredevil, I’ll probably watch it on VCD… I don’t have anyone to watch it with anyway and I don’t want to watch a movie alone.

I just realized… Eugene is already 37 dog years old! He’s so old… ^_^ And Spot is 5 dog years old. How did I compute it? Well, the dog’s first human year is equal to 15 dog years, the second year is equal to 10 dog years and every succeeding year is equal to 3 dog years.. ^_^ How old is your dog?

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then is not an act, but a habit. - Aristotle

Construction starts tomorrow! ^^

Our house is going to have a big change from now on. I'm so excited! Not even the three upcoming exams will make my spirits down.. Finally, I can design the things in my room and how it will be constructed. I'm making a design plan for my room. And I'll be checking up on the people if what is according to that plan. I want my room to be perfect. :D

I'm so happy! I get to play the role of an architect.. :D

We are currently packing my stuff. I have only realized how many things are in that room. I don't remember having so much stuff. ^^;;; After this, I'm going to show my room plan to my parents. ^_____^

In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity.

Today’s mission… failed!

I studied for the exam, but I still can’t figure out why?! I only had a vague idea how to answer the questions. And one more thing, I came late! It’s my first time to be late in the exam! I was supposed to be early since I was the one who woke up Chrissa and Ivy at 5am (I was already up and studying by 2am). I can’t believe it! I’ll give the blame to commuting. It’s only one jeepney ride to get to school, but this morning the jeepney driver wanted his jeep to be filled, so we waited for a VERY LONG TIME for other passengers. Unfortunately, the jeep was not filled even though we waited. I was muttering to myself how late I was.

During the exam, I thought that I should skip the first number since it has the most number of branches (circuits). So I went to the next number, and the next and the next. When I was finished with the other problems I went back to problem number one. I was about to answer the first number when the teacher said, “Finalize your answers.” I panicked! Then after a few seconds he said “Pass your questionnaire, then the answer to number one.” What the?! A few seconds after asking us to finalize our answers he wants us to pass it already?! I tried to answer number one but my brain was saying “Panic! Panic!” and I couldn’t think straight! So I wasn’t able to answer a problem and that means… I lost my 25 points! That’s so much! :(

After the exam, I was ranting on how I didn’t finish it. We ate at Jollibee and I tried their strawberry syrup pancakes. Yum… After that Tin, Nas and Phine went home while Chrissa, Nikki, Ivy and I went to megamall… ^_^ It was quite a ride, we used a bus instead of the usual MRT. Then when we got to Ortigas, the conductor said, “Hey, Ortigas na.” then the bus moved before we could even get out. And it continued on until we were already so far away from megamall… Farther than the Shaw MRT station… T_T

Anyway, we had absolutely no idea of what were going to do there. We thought of watching Hero… but we missed it (It’s not showing in the theaters). :( And since we were broke, we did not see any movie. So we just went around the mall, going to different shops. We went to the furniture store to look at wallpapers. I’m so excited to design my room! :) Then we went to the department store to look for Nikki’s ¾ shirt. While we were there, we had fun asking Chrissa to dress up! (By the way, we were calling each other in our full names while we were there… just for fun! I guess the sales clerks already memorized Chrissa’s name… :P) There were so many clothes we wanted her to try… gowns, tank tops, sleeveless shirts, kid’s clothes *laughs*. She ALMOST tried one top just to hush us up. But she didn’t... :P

After that, our feet were already tired walking around. They went home. I lost my beaded black bracelet at the MRT. I didn’t notice where it fell because I was feeling drowsy while I was riding the train. When I got to North Avenue, I noticed that my bracelet was gone. :( I stopped by SM North to buy a refill for my G-TEC C4. I saw a friend and my cousin(father’s side) while I was there. My train of though when I saw my cousin from afar, “Hmm.. that guy looks cute.. wait, I think his face is familiar.. wait a minute… it’s kuya!” :D

All bookstores in SM North don’t have a refill for G-TEC C4 (black). Since I wouldn’t be able to buy what I wanted, I just stayed in the bookstore and browsed for books. I saw a collection of Garfield comic books! :D My current favorite line from Garfield: “I wrote the whole book about lethargy.” ^^

I saw a batch mate from high school when I went home. He said “Scientian!” when we got off the jeep. (Students from our school are called Scientians.) I turned around then he asked me if I was a Scientian. Of course I said yes and I didn’t recognize that he was my batchmate, I was thinking “Hmm.. could he be from a lower batch?”. I asked him if he was a Scientian too, which was a silly question because he said we were batch mates but I probably didn’t know him because he was from another section. Then, at that moment, I recognized him… ^^;;;; It took me a long while to remember him, first of all, we were never introduced to each other. We always met in the halls but I didn’t know him. Second, he’s studying at PLM, and I’m at UP. It’s been two years since our graduation. I haven’t seen him after that. :P

Apparently, he was a friend of my neighbor (who happens to be my batch mate in high school) and he was visiting his friend. We walked together until I stopped at my house, and to my surprise my uncle and aunt (father’s side again) are there with my grandma! I missed my grandma, because it’s been a while since I last saw her. I told them about my earlier encounter with my cousin. Then I left the discussion so that I can start reading my new magazine. (I bought a new one! ^^) While I was reading it, I fell asleep. :P Good thing I woke up just on time for Sailormoon. :D It’s the episode I’ve been waiting for! The part where Mamoru’s death was revealed and Uranus and Neptune sided with Galaxia. And I was crying because Mamo-chan and Hotaru died. It’s just so sad… :( Hotaru is so cool! She spins her Silence Glaive like a pro and she’s pretty strong too! She was the only one who can block Galaxia’s attack using her Silence Wall. :D

Another long post! So many things happened today, I just can’t help myself…^^
