I love you 5 :)

"I love you one, a two, a three shobee-doo, I love you four, that's more that I can afford, And I can tell someday that I'm gonna say, I love you five." Great song! Nevershoutnever is so awesome that most people get addicted to his song. The singer, Christofer Drew Ingle, also popular as Nevershoutnever has really an amazing voice. He makes great tunes and melodies of songs that he sing. He was born on the 11th day of February in the year 1991 and was born in Joplin, Missouri, United States. He usually makes acoustic and pop music. He began his ventures and music making career as Nevershoutnever in September 2007. His debut album is What is Love which was produced by Butch Walker. As the news say, his music career as an artist caused him to drop out of school before his graduation. Every time he tours, he has with him his touring band which he calls "The Shout".  Not only that his voice is awesome, I had to admit, that he, also, is very handsome. When he was still in middle school, he went through a self-described "emo stage" where he began to like bands like Dashboard Confessional. He often speaks of his admiration for Jack Johnson (sites as his musical influence). As i have heard, last July 29, 2008, he was featured on TRL where he performed his single "BigCityDreams" that eventually made it to number 3 on the Hot Singles Chart. Christofer's super duper awesome. Great things are happening to him at present and more great and superb opportunities are coming his way. :)

I am contended. I am proud. :)

Friends. Do you ever have one? Friends are great. Many said they come and go but I believe that if you have a TRUE friend, he/she won't go. He/she wont leave you. Have you ever experienced leaving a friend? or have you ever had a friend who left you? You wont feel good right? You'll feel like there's something missing inside you. At present, I can say that I am very contented and very proud of what I have now, my friends. I have a lot of them but there's this very very best friend of mine who have been with me since grade 5 up to the present. Wanna know her? she's Carmen Ana Margarita Catequista. I admit we're not perfect. I love her for who she is. Eventhough we have experienced a lot of problems and encountered a lot of obstacles, our friendship remained strong. We forgive each others mistakes and forget what happened that is not pleasing. We share a lot of similarities, likes, and dislikes. We share each other's secrets and trust each other. So, to my best friend, Carmen Ana Margarita Catequista, I hope you'll stay the same. I love you for who you are and I hope we'll remain friends until babies grow on trees. :)

Craving for FOOD! :))

Research period. "No Facebook-ing allowed", that was the main rule of the Research center. Most of us students really don't want this rule. (HAHAHA!) All of us wanted Facebook-ing. Since we have nothing to do, I searched and opened cool sites on cool pictures while my seatmate, Patrizia, was busy doing her blog. I typed "Tumblr Pictures" and saw a picture of food from Mcdo! OMG. MCDO is one of my favorite fastfood restaurants. I suddenly felt hungry. I feel that I crave for food. Hmm. I wanted to eat but it's not allowed here. So, i guess, i should really wait for a few more minutes... Hmmm. the time now is 4:15, so I should wait for 5 mins more. Hmph! I'm really hungry! :( I ate my lunch, and I don't know why my stomach grumbles now. HAHAHA. Patience is a virtue. FOOD! :)

Judgements are not always RIGHT :>

Many people tend to judge people before knowing them. Many people believes in the saying "First Impression Lasts a Lifetime." and actually, I'm one of them. Sometimes, I get to judge them through their appearance, through their faces. While i was surfing the net, looking through some cool pictures in Google because I have nothing to do, i saw this picture saying "DONT JUDGE ME. You don't know what I've been through." Honestly, I was STAR STRUCK by the picture. Eventhough it really isn't that awesome, it was the quote that caught my attention. For me, I really believe in it. You just don't judge a person through the way they look, the way they act, the way they do things. You should first know him/her. Eventhough at first, she/he maltreated you, don't judge him/her immeadiately. Take time to know him/her more. Give him/her another chance to improve his/herself. Maybe, she/he has something deep inside him/her that made him/her maltreat you, whether oral or physical. We should always look in the brighter side of things. You may not know, that person who maltreated you actually wanted to be a friend of yours and wanted to get you attention. Look in his/her positive side. Don't easily judge others. Not all judgements are correct. Even your mom or dad can't judge you correctly eventhough you've spent your life with them. :)

WHY?

Why do I need to hurt myself?
Because I`m feeling so blue.
I don`t really understand it,
But what I am feeling is so true.

Why do we need to leave each other
When we can stay together
With each other
Forever and ever.

I can't stop myself from remembering
The person I love,
I am just reminicsing,
All the memories we have.

I have many regrets
In my life these days,
But why is it really hard to forget
All the dreams that we have made?

"why" is the question I always ask,
To myself and to the people I trust.
I think It's time to move on,
I can't, but I must.

Moving On is Hard to do.

New Life. New Hopes. New Friends. New Teachers. New everything. Second week of my Second Year High school education has already ended. My new life has already begun. I’ve met so many new faces since last week. New classmates, new seatmates, new groupmates, but no one can ever replace my Gabriel family. I can’t easily let go of the past. Gabriel is the best. We had the best class adviser, the best group and the best classmates I’ve ever had. First year life has helped me open and widen the circle of friends I have. First few days of first year, I only have 3 best friends but as days go on, I had made 35 new BEST FRIENDS. No one can ever replace them. Without them in the classroom, I feel empty. I feel like there’s something missing inside of me. I can say that our bond as a section is really so tight that we can’t easily let go of each other. I miss everything about Gabriel, our teachers before especially Mrs. Abototo who transferred to the grades 1-2-3 department and Sr. Forthelli whom I’ve never seen for quite a long time. First year, for now, was the best year of my life. Gabriel is the best section for me. I can say that there are so many challenges that came our way, so many obstacles and trials that tested our friendship but no dilemma ever destroyed our camaraderie with each other. We treated each other like a sister. We considered Mrs. Sardua as our mother. Doing things with Gabriel is really fun. We can easily relate with one another. Gabriel really means something to me. Our relationship with each other is special. We’re not just friends. We’re more than friends. Moving on, really, is hard to do. Adjusting to adjustments is really so hard. Talking to someone you barely know is awkward. With Gabriel, I can do whatever I want, knowing my limitations. Sometimes, I feel unease with my new classmates. I think, it’s because we’re only together for a short time. I think it’s really the time to move on. I can’t, but I must.

Time Flies So Fast

Now a days, I really believe in the saying “Time flies so Fast.” You would not notice that the first week of my second year in Assumption Iloilo had gone by like a wind in the beach. I can say, it was a great week. Day one started its greatness. When I entered my school last June 7, I was quite shy. I didn’t go outside my car first. I searched for my friends or even my classmates last school year but I haven’t seen one. So, I stayed in my car, fixed my hair and waited for my friends. I waited and waited for about 20 mins inside but I saw no one but other year level learners. I patiently remained in my car. When I went down already, I was very in high spirits to see my clique. I went to them and hugged each one of them because we really haven’t seen each other for about 2 months while waiting for my other best friends. I was blissful to hear that they were all okay and enjoyed their summer but bad news came when we went inside the St. Anne’s Hall. It was that moment when we knew that we would be separated from each other and only 4 of us, from our group, was in St. Catherine and others were all strangers. I meant, yes, I know them in name but not from top to bottom. When we finally went to our respective classrooms, my first reaction was “Ohhh my. Who are these people?!” I really don’t know some of my classmates know because we weren’t classmates last year and for some, I knew them with their first names but not in manners and etc. I wanted to cry at first because I really don’t know them and in Filipino, hindi ko talaga sila “feel”. I don’t know why but I truly can’t feel comfortable with them. But I tried my best to get to know them. Second day came. It was still the “get to know you” day. It’s really hard for me and my other best friends to adjust to our new sections. It’s difficult to adjust to our new classroom, to our new classmates who we will spend our 10 months together. I find it easy for me to adjust to my new class adviser because Mr. Guintivano and Mrs. Sardua is kinda like the same. The way they talk and etcetera. The best thing I like most about Sir is his very happy disposition and his always smiling face. Second day, we chosen our new set of class officers and I was one of them. I was elected as our class secretary. Good thing that my assistant was also my good friend since grade 3 so, with no trouble, we got along with each other. We had our whole level mixing after recess and we had fun. For all of us, we took advantage of our mixing to get together again as Gabriel, Micheal and Raphael but also cooperated with the games and activities. In the afternoon, we had our Student’s Hour and really had fun. The LCBA really provided us with great games and really ensured that we had fun even if we ourselves didn’t play. Third day came. It was the first day that we finally met our subject facilitators and got to know them once more. We took part in games and assigned groups. Fourth day entered and exited smoothly. A number of of our subject facilitators already gave us their first lessons and had our regular class however there are several that we first oriented with the subject. It was like yesterday that we just met our new sections but when Friday came, it was like we knew each other and been with one another for more than three months already. I widened my circle of friends and made new ones. I can say that I am already “close” with others even though we’re not classmates last year. Friday went with a bang. We played a game with Mr. Secular and it was indeed amusing and as well, let us learned things about others. Before we went home, Mr. Guintivano talked to us about our misunderstanding with our facilitator. It was really a great misapprehension because we didn’t really understand the side of our teacher. So when Sir conversed to us about this matter, we realized it was our mistake. I can’t blame this on one classmate because I believe that the fault of one is the fault of all for the reason that we are one as a section. So, we express regret for that mistake we have made. This week gave me so many realizations that can change me for the better. One is that you should understand first the side of a person before judging him or her because as we all know, all our judgements are not always exact and sometimes, these can lead to nuisance and misunderstandings. Next, we should always be open to all and sundry so that we can expand our circle of friends. We should also know others before judging them because not all first impressions are correct and we should not judge others with their physical appearances. Lastly, we should always make a good first impression because most impressions last a lifetime. Now, with all these learnings and experiences, I can say that my first week in school was indeed fun and unforgettable.
