Bye bye Summer o9!

The Book of Answers was wrong!

M's my classmate! And E & CJ & C! Hello IV-St. Rita. :) Only, MA is not my classmate, and CB. MA's been my classmate since 1st year! Well, actually, I think since grade 5 but we were not that close back then. -sigh- That just sucks. To think it'll be our last year since we're going off to different colleges after graduation. Oh, and another thing that bothers me this year is that we're only 2 sections! I don't think any of us moved (we were already few before) so why change? The top ten's going to be brutal... as CJ says, the TOUGH TEN... I think our adviser is Mrs. Adri. I'm actually 90% sure she is, based on our bulletin board with ALGEBRA written on it. Yipee. Not.



Tomorrow, after settling into class, the discipline committee members are to proceed to their assigned classrooms. Estella, a second year student, and I were assigned to Grade One Red under Ms. Jela's care. MA's with her sister, assigned to the other grade one section. And Therese's with CJ handling grade 3. We are to stay with them for the whole morning in the auditorium. So we won't be able to bond with our class yet. -sigh- When we found out about this, MA and I comforted ourselves with the thought that at least WE will be near each other, thinking we would be classmates. BROKEN RECORD! You see, MA and I with 2 other friends of ours have been classmates since 1st year! There's an unspoken bond between the four of us, and now I broke away from them!

So goodbye summer 09, the last summer before graduating at Colegio de Sta. Rosa... hello Senior year. I want this year to be the BEST. No regrets, though I'm starting to think that that's not possible...

Anyway, we attended mass at Greenbelt this afternoon. And I got one of those small scrolls with Bible messages written in them. Mine read:

Humiliation can follow fame, while from obscurity a man can lift his head. A man may buy much for little, but pay for it seven times more.

- Sirach 20: 10

Beautiful isn't it? Well, off to bed. Need to get some shut eye if I am to be alert for tomorrow. Hope it'll turn out okay. Go go go! :)

I've just finished a book I've recently borrowed from Estelle. It's entitled The True Meaning of Cleavage (by Mariah Fredericks), and trust me, it's not as liberated as the title speaks of. It's not even a romance story, but one about friendship. What true friends really are- companions despite everything else, kindred souls. Somehow, the story helped me figure things out, some things that just happened within this last week before the sembreak.

There was an ultimatum earlier today. I had to decide between 2 of my best friends: my sister-cousin and one of my FWENDZ. Both celebrated their birthday this October, the former just yesterday and the latter on Monday. Here's the dilemma: I promised my cousin that we'll watch HSM 3 tomorrow (even though I'd prefer to watch The Strangers) but then my friend suddenly told of her celebration tomorrow as well. Of course, I already had other plans on Friday before the other two, a movie marathon. But of course, I couldn't say no to my cousin, and I figured they'd understand why I can't come (yet again.) But then the celebration thing came up all of the sudden, and I didn't know what to do. I thought she said she didn't want to celebrate it the first place so...

It was hard deciding. But I guess, blood is thicker than water, right? I hate that quotation. I think it's stupid, to be blunt.

So how was this related to the book? What's the true meaning of Cleavage? It's the separation of the pair.

I was miserable for most of today, for this week (this very slow week) to be exact.

But there was another thing bubbling inside of me, aside from misery. My writing muse. Writing Gakuen Alice Fanfiction for 2 years... I almost forgot how that felt. I suffered from a Writer's block. That's when I started writing this blog. It's like forgetting to write fiction and focus on... reality. Epiphanies soon followed after. Then a bit of fear.

So what got me energized to write again? Lack of books to read, boredom, reminisces and the song from the movie Anastasia "At the Beginning." (I love that movie and that song.)

BTW, completely random, I'm listening a song from Ella Enchanted "Once Upon A Broken Heart" - something I discovered after watching some Howl's Moving Castle AMVs.

Well... sembreak. Here it goes.

cracked, now sunny-side-up

WAH!!!! It's vacation!!!!
And I can't believe I haven't written here before hand...
Well, before I lose myself into flaunting some stuff, let me tell you all about saying good-bye to Clare.
First of all, it wasn't as dramatic as I expected it to be.
Secondly, I realized I'll miss them more than I thought I would miss them.
Confused? So am I.
But one thing's for sure

I love TLC.

This year was so so so different from last year and my other school days at CSR... it stood out. And that's how I'm gonna remember it.

Well, now that it's all cleared, I'll babble about the sleepover @ Mariel's house.
It is my first sleepover yet. It was so fun! [It had to be considering there were eight of us!] We watched tons of movies, [we finally get to use Mariel's Portable DVD player, something she's been desperate to get] ate lots of snacks, laughed out loud, talked and talked and talked, went jogging [4 AM!], harassed her puppies [ahaha! poor Tatay!], soundtrip and had a bit of a drama time... we had to say good-bye to Elmira...

But all in all, it was fun. So I guess you could say that the sleepover is the start of summer...
