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…^^
