Boiling point...

I woke up this morning because I had a bad dream. Well, it wasn't really bad because I dreamed of my wedding but the thing is my tooth was pulled out in that dream. Here in the Philippines, we have this pamahiin (saying) that if your tooth got loose in your dream, a loved one will die. So when I woke up, I went to my mom and asked what to do. She said I should bite some wood, so I bit my door and my bed. I hope nobody in the family dies... *crosses all fingers and toes*

Anyway, I got late for my first subject. The teacher called out my name for recitation, unfortunately I wasn't there when he called me. And that was the last chance I would be able to recite in that class. :(

I had an exam at 1pm. It was hard! I hate it! I was in a really bad mood when we finished it because I don't know if I got half of the answers correct. -_-

After the exam, I went to the library to return the book that Ivy borrowed (She forgot her library card when she was going to borrow the book so I had to borrow it for her.) and the book was two days overdue. So I had to go up the stairs and go to the cashier to pay for the overdue fees, and down the stairs to return the book. After all that, I went back to the EEE building (where I had my exam) and I was already tired of all the walking. Then I saw Tina (the one who has my jacket) about to leave the building. I asked her how I would be able to get the jacket and she said some directions to find her cabinet in the laboratory. Unfortunately, when I told Dasco (her co-lab) he got confused and it took a while before he finally found it.

I went to the erg tambayan (the place where our organization is located) and spent some time there until 3:45pm. At that time I left the place and went to the faculty center to meet my groupmates in Comm 3. We were supposed to meet there at 4pm so we would be able to see the magazine that we paid for. I got there around 3:50pm and I stayed with our teacher waiting for my groupmates. I brought all the tapes that I was supposed to distribute to them (I had to record 5 tapes with the same stuff... I was able to memorize our WHOLE interview. -_-) Lady and Lowell came around 4:30pm. There was only one group member left, Bugsy, and he was the one carrying our magazine. We texted him and asked where he is, he said he was currently at the computer shop and they were printing the magazine. We kept texting him and bugging him if we will be able to pass it on time. He said yes and he'll get a taxi to go to the department. We asked him to hurry, because we were running out of time. At 5pm our teacher said in her watch it's only 4:45pm, so we were relieved. But when the teacher said that her husband is already there and we're waiting. We panicked! Bugsy is still not there and the teacher is leaving! We asked her if she could wait for Bugsy, she said she'll give us a few minutes because her husband will be mad if they waited longer. We got her to wait for about 20 more minutes and then she said that she really had to go. We were talking to Bugsy and he's still on his way! I ran down the stairs with mam and try to talk her to wait some more. I was practically begging her to stay longer. My groupmates used all my cellphone credits to call Bugsy and I was outside talking to mam. Finally her husband parked their car and waited. I ran towards the building and looked for my groupmates. When I saw them with Bugsy I immediately called their attention and told them to give the teacher the magazine but the pages were still loose! My groupmate ran upstairs to the photocopy place to borrow their stapler, but since it was very thick she wasn't able to staple it together. I took out my stapler and we tried to staple it, it was finally joined and I told them to go and give it to mam. When they went out, I saw my teacher's car run past them! We were THAT close to giving our project... THAT close! >_<;;;

We went back to the building and I was holding back my tears. I wanted to cry right then and there! I didn't know what to do! I was so mad and frustrated that we were not able to give it in time. When I saw the magazine he made, I got angrier! It wasn't worth it! The magazine was nothing I expected! Not to mention that I already lowered my expectations about it, but it was not good enough to be worth Php 1000 (approximately US $18 ) I couldn't say anything because I might snap... I tried so hard to keep my cool. I looked at it and at the very first page... I saw a typo! I inspected everything and saw dozens of typos! I wrote them all down and asked him to edit them all. I got a calmer while I was writing and when I finished looking at everything I told him that I was definitely disappointed with him. I couldn't say anything else because I felt like my heart was going to burst because I felt really hurt. I went home feeling sad and angry. When I got home, my parents and grandma were about to eat. While we were eating I told them everything, and finally got all of that hurt, anger and frustration out of my chest. Actually I felt relieved after telling my story to my parents (I was practically shouting while I was telling them about it... I was THAT mad! And I rarely get mad... *shakes head*).

I've just received a message from my groupmate. Bugsy already talked to our teacher and she'll give us a chance to give our project. Whew! I'm feeling a lot better now.
