Final Grades

Well. My final average was 3.31. However, the requirement for DL is not 3.3 as I had thought but 3.35. o.O

Anyway, 3.31 is already high, I guess... the only difference from my prediction a few posts back was that my English grade was B+ and not B, while my Fil grade was B and not B+. So much for Fil being my "pambawi". After all this time, Fil still is the death of me.

Oh well, that's life. At least hindi ako tanggal sa course di ba? Next sem na lang ulit. :D

Last Sunday, we went to the Chinese temple and guess who we saw? Candice! And her parents and even Maxine, actually. Hehe, wala lang, kwentuhan cyempre, about lots of stuff since it really has been a long time since we talked to each other.

Anyway, I totally messed up. We were supposed to get the final grades (FINGERS CROSSED) and registration forms for enrollment tomorrow and I misinformed everyone (haha) because I thought we had to be there at respective times. This is not my fault in any way however *ahem* because I thought it was going to be like last sem where EVERYTHING was by random number. How would I know???? 3 weeks of sembreak and look what all the internet surfing and drama watching has done to my poor unused brain.

Moving on. Yesterday, Riezeryl and I went on a drama shopping spree in Ongpin. Well, actually it wasn't much of a spree since we were both on tight budgets but I managed to buy 3 dramas namely "Coffee Prince", "My Name is Kim Sam Soon" and "Brown Sugar Macchiato". Riez bought 3 too... :D anyway, I should have just downloaded through the internet, so much cheaper that way, and also i can watch on my dvdrom-less laptop. After lunch we went to Jenalyn's house and looked at all her dramas as always, and also got to see how evil Multimedia Arts is (that's her course)

FINAL GRADES. FINAL GRADES. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Nanowrimo update: Still too lazy but i've got a REAL plot this time. I'll try tomorrow, keyword being "try". That 50k victory is starting to look hazy from my point of view. BUT being the ever optimistic me, I'll do whatever I should to reach that goal! Which means stop being lazy. Haha.

ONGA PALA MATH CHALLENGE NA SA November 12! I can't go. I have classes. Boo. Maybe I'll drop by before commuting to Ateneo though, I'm still not sure. I don't know my schedule by heart yet.

The Sipnayan.

Well. Thanks for the attention. That, and the flooding of my tagboard. But still! Life's pretty much ok now. Good? Um, not quite. 50-50.

The thing is, this is supposed to be my Sipnayan post. The pictures though, are in my previous post. But that won't stop me from typing out my experiences in sweet old Ateneo. (Uhh...)


*Kwento mode* (Pictures in the previous post.)

Early in the morning, when I arrived at St. Step Hen, it was like such a huge shock because there were only, like, 2 people there. Candice and Krizia. (Oh. And Mr. Ong.) I was early!!! I was all, am I dreaming? But I wasn't! Wow! Amazing! I was even earlier than Kevin!!!

So um yeah. Everyone came eventually, even Aldrich who was Mr. Late (next only to Calvin). And so we left!

In the car, it was the usual crazy thing. Danette was sorely missed however, due to her YES! quiz in UST. Anyway, the groupings are: THE DREAM TEAM, consisting of Willard, Kevin, and Candice (Kevin and Candice!); and, THE NIGHTMARE TEAM, consisting of Krizia, Aldrich, and me! Well. Um, pagdating sa Ateneo, hintay hintay kami... then!!! PROBLEM: Kailangan naming mamigay ng letters para sa LoTM!!

(Me being the big clucking chicken, was scared, I was too "shy". I'm ashamed of myself.)

Buti na lang nandyan si Krizia. She gave quite a lot of letters, pero in the end, mga 20 something lang ata nabigyan namin kasi, yung iba umuwi na ng maaga.

So anyway, rewind... nung nagstart na ung elimination, nandun kami sa escaler hall, our team. then naghanap ng seats. test test test... DI AKO MARUNONG!!!! I was like staring at the paper the whole time. (exag(gerate). cyempre nag answer naman ako, kahit konti.) when the test was done I was like, man! I'm sorry I failed you guys. (aldrich and krizia) but oh well. LUNCH TIME!

Lunch was at KFC. We ate! We took pictures! (One picture which is me and aldrich. the totem pole whatever thing which was kind of a parody of the stephenian gazette of their batch. tingnan nyo na lang mukha ni aldrich dun.... heheheh)

after lunch, balik na kami, announce finalists.... st stephen's team 1!!!! whoooooo!!! sila willard, kevin, and candice!!! yeah!

so contest contest...

they ended up as 6th place overall..

sorry kung medyo bitin. tinatamad na eh....

:D

the end!!!

basta masaya!

My dearest Candice

Hello Candice.

How's Kevin?

Ay, mali.

Sa ibang tao na pala yun.

Si **************** kc sayo eh....

Mwahahahahahah.

Anyway, good luck sa ATENEO.

Hehe.

At kay R***Y pala.

Hee hee hee.

C & R 4ever!!!!

joke lang. kay danette na un eh....

:P

Three posts in one day? Is that a new record for me?

Anyway, things have been happening in the past few days....

1. I got in the yearbook committee!!! Along with Kathy!!! YAY! But... speaking of Kathy...
2. She got hit by typhus AND dengue! Poor Kathy... but we visited her and she was semi-fine so I guess she'll be fine! And besides we've all been praying for her! :D
3. I was sick for two days and I was knocked out... well not really, but I was absent for two days after which I had such a hard time catching up... but still, well, the math club thing is done... i think..... and um... school notes are also semi done... anyway!!! IT's fine.... i guess.

That's all, I think. And Sunday's the acet for me! wish me luck!!!! :D i hope I do well! :D

Busy as a Bee

Lots of things happened these past few days (or rather, weeks). Here are some of them:

1. Today it rained. Actually it was a full-fledged storm complete with sock-wettening floods and gushes of wind and water. Kanina pa nung pauwi kami. Ngaun, kahit isang katiting ng tubig, WALA! ARGH!!!
2. Two weeks ago ata, or three, nag elevator ako papuntang Australasian Science Competition sa St. Step Hen. Tapos biglang nawalan ng kuryente! Nakakagulat, biglang nahulog ung elevator. Buti ako, calm, pinindot ko yung yellow button na may drawing ng bell. Parang walang nangyari. Tapos gumalaw ulit yung elevator. Yehey! I'm saved. Tumigil sa 7th flr at tuluyan na akong pumunta sa St. Step Hen. :D
3. Alay Lakad nung Sunday. Masaya naman. Wla lang. Hehehe. Halos kasing saya ng last year kc kasama ko si Chabi. Hehehe...
4. Pasok na ako sa Training Team! Yehey! Added bonus, instant membership sa Computer Club! Yay!
5. Filipino Contest pala, medyo matagal na un. Masaya pero talo kami. Awww....
6. Start na pala MTG nung Sunday. Kaso lang wala ako kasi nag Ateneo Camp Math ako. Last day na nun eh. Miss ko na nga... Nanalo pa nga kami ng kisses pero ung kisses ko napisa sa bag. WAHHH!!!
7. Absent si Sir Tom for about a week... kaya binigyan namin cya ng fruits! Hehe... sana di na cya magkasakit.

Yun lang. And there goes my talambuhay for the month of August. Onga pala, shockers. Bukas na bigayan ng report card!! AHHHHHHH!

Anyway, like my new template? New link din pala. http://pandalette.blogspot.com :D

Peter Piper

Si Pedro Pipero ay namitas ng isang tuka ng inatsarang paminta.
Namitas ba si Pedro Pipero ng isang tuka ng inatsarang paminta?
Kapag namitas si Pedro Pipero ng isang tuka ng inatsarang paminta,
Nasaan na ang isang tuka ng inatsarang paminta na pinitas ni Pedro Pipero?

*Credit goes to Neal Somebody of Ateneo Camp Math, and of course, Group 5! And me, for translating the rest that Neal Somebody didn't.

College Confusion

Ateneo. La Salle. UST. UP. UA&P. Benilde. Arellano?

Honestly. Now that I've actually decided where I'm gonna go (Ateneo. That is, if I'm accepted.) I have to face Big Question #2. COURSE

ME? BMH? Lit? Creative Writing? Psych? AMF? (Heaven forbid.) Or maybe, Philosophy, Pre-divinity Track? (Ditto.)

I don't know anymore. Literature sana, but then what am I gonna be? A teacher? No way! Same thing goes for Psych and Creative Writing. So what's left? Management. Pero sabi ng iba, wala daw kwenta management. So, we'll see about that.

Anyway, troubling things aside, the retreat is coming. I can't wait!!! I'm so gonna have loads of fun. I'm thinking sneaking around, but then I'm such a good girl that I can't do such things. :D

Lapit na pala perio. Hm. Study time.

Stuff.

Wla lng. I just read a friend's blog. Un lang. Inspired I guess. Tska in english, plan naming mag report using video. Kaso lang mahirap. But who cares! If there's a will, there's a way.

I admit, medyo nagdadalawang isip ako about the whole video thing, but since I am this stubborn girl who refuses to listen to others, I'm going through with it. May ka group ako, but they're okay with it, so why not? I think it's a pretty cool idea, even if it's hard and all.

Fine. I'll be honest. Naadik ako sa pagvivideo, lalo na nung interview thing. Gusto ko nang magvideo!!! Haha.

Anyway, meron nang Ateneo forms. Whee, Ateneo! Sana makapasa ako sa course ko. This Saturday tanong ko sana kung anong courses ung napasa ko nung ACET para sa AJSS, para madecide ko na kung anong course kukunin ko. This is my future!!!!

Sige hanggang d2 n lng. thanks!

Things I learned this summer:

1. How to separate DNA from a banana... sa Mapua to... really cool stuff. imagine seeing the white fluffy thingy coming out of the liquid banana mixture... tapos u get to see it under a microscope! haha... may picture sana...
2. Sudoku... sa in house nmn ito! Thanks to Bless, my neighbor na di ko kilala until nag in house kmi. hehe. nasa taas lng cya pero di ko cya nakikita! :P ang galing nga nya mag sudoku eh... kming tatlo ni danette nag aanswer. nakakamiss na tlga.
3. Masaya mag ingay sa mcdo. lalo na nung bday ni dianne krupasa. :) it was loads of fun! :D
   
4. How to commute to ateneo every single day. nakakatamad. but it was all for a good cause.
   
5. Matrices, courtesy of Ma'm Queena... galing nya super! anyway, matrices "make you feel like a computer". so true. I almost failed the test! C+ ata ako d2!!! T_T... Actually AJSS is the second time I took up matrices... the first time was just as horrible...
6. Linear Programming... this is just awesome! It's a great technique, but then again, it's math, so however awesome it is, it's just full of technical stuff that again, "makes you feel like a computer".
   
7. Combinatorics... I did better in this than in the others. Um... dapat lang. I have been taking up combinatorics in MTG ever since.... forever! Hahaha....
8. Nakaka-adik ang C2. Honestly. Sobrang tamis ng C2 lemon. C2 green tea nmn wlang lasa. masarap ang c2 apple at c2 peach. di ko pa natry ung c2 iced tea lemon whatever. ano ba pagkakaiba nun sa c2 lemon? hmmm....
9. sabi daw ung pasta sa ateneo parehas lng araw araw, iniiba lng ung sauce at toppings. i forgot who said that. haha. nabasa ko lng sa blog ng isang tao. :)
10. kahit na di ako naiyak nung aj graduation, namiss ko pa rin ung buong experience, tska ung mga lessons, and especially the people who were a part of it. thanks so much for it all.
11. advantage pala ung mga advanced classes na kinukuha ko every summer with mr roque. medyo parehas cya dun sa english namin sa ajss. :)
12. magandang libro ang catcher in the rye. marami lang ngang bad words.
13. super ok ang psychology. pero hndi cya ok kapag tinatamad akong mag aral ng notes na binibigay na halos xerox copy ng buong book na 400+ pages long. but still!!! i love psych. love love love. all of us should try it sometime. it was sooooooooooo cool!!! haha. why? kasi, its so easy to relate to. parang, lahat ng sinasabi ng teacher, i understand totally kasi i have encountered a case like it at least once in my life! gusto ko nang mag psych! hahahahahahahahahahaha. kaya beware pag kausap mo ko. i will psycho analyze you! haha. jke lng, i'm not that good. :P
14. i wasted the last few days of my summer playing sims 2 on the xbox. masaya pero walang kwenta. haha. whatever.

that is all!!! tomorrow i have to go to school for the teachers assembly. i dont plan to listen anyway. i plan to chat chat chat with my friends. wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee.................................. :P
