Old School

You know the light and triumphant feeling of finishing something very important? How in the first few minutes you're just so happy to just close the book and open a new one? I've felt that feeling so many times.

As someone who makes arts and crafts for friends, or intricate projects just for the hell of it I've lost count on how many times I've been running against a deadline. I've got to tell you that every project and craft that I did I did them giving my all. After so much work those things held a part of me that went away just as soon as I gave them. I guess this is how I could describe the 12 years I spent in Assumption Iloilo where I gave so much that even if left it would still be as if I'm there.

I love my old school even though going through each of those years there wasn't exactly what you'd call easy or happy-dandy. I love that school because I grew up there as much as I did growing up in my own home. I love Assumption Iloilo. I will miss being there even though at the same time I'm glad that I'm leaving it behind. Like closing a new book and opening a new one.

This school isn't like a hundred thousand other schools, this school is unique to me in all the world...

Panic! At The Disco: Ready To Go [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

I have spent the last 2-3 hours reading various articles on economics. My mind is swimming with words such as...

diminishing returns

unemployed resources

inefficiently

allocative efficiency

*Reallocating scarce resources

opportunity cost

PRODUCTION

DISTRIBUTION

CONSUMPTION/ CONSUMER EXPENDITURE

supply and demand...

I was just going to listen to some sleepy song (Who'd have known- Lily Allen) but then I found out that Panic! At The Disco had a new music video. In reality it's not really new because it's already two months old. The sacrifices of being in school, missing good music. This is a great energy booster for me especially since I'm so sleepy right now.

Kapatiran Week

Let me talk about the kapatiran...

Day 1

At lunch time we went around all of the groups and ate all kinds of desert. We had a salo- salo where everything was spread out like on fiestas. A group of fourth year students then played and sang some songs. We were using the school's softball field. The grass was a bright and fresh green, we sat on the ground when we did our picnic. It was really nice to have some of the students play some songs. It was acoustic, perfect for relaxing after eating your fill of sweets, pizza, and coke.

Day 2

My friends and I have been excited for this day since last week. On this day we had to wear the costume of our favorite cartoon character (or movie character, sports person, super hero). On my last post I hinted on planning to be Jasmine from Aladdin. I fortunately got my senses back and thought better of it. My first thought on who to be was Jasmine, then I changed it and started looking for the costume of Dorothy. A lot of people asked me who Dorothy even is- seriously they didn't know. For the people who are unfamiliar with her, Dorothy is the girl from Kansas whose house got hit by a typhoon that whisked her a way into a land called Oz. Part of the bandwagon of characters from Oz are scarecrow, tin man, cowardly lion, Glinda the good witch, and the wicked witch of the west. April chose to be Glinda for her costume though she really didn't know who Glinda was. I didn't look anything like Dorothy however when I finally tried on my costume so I changed it. I became- ironically of course, Lucy! From Narnia. I don't know why but people found it hilarious when I told them. For the rest of my friends they were dressed up as the boys from Boys Over Flowers. They were really creative and really looked like the characters they were presenting. My favorite costumes from the day were Hermione Granger, The Smurfs, Alice In Wonderland, and Russell and Mr. Fredrickson. Everyone- well, not everyone- was really creative with their costumes. It was an amusing sight.

Day 3

Day three was honestly very depressing. We were supposed to help paint and build houses for people who had non but the rain had other ideas. I got wet, and you know just how much I despise being cold and damp. For me the day ended okay. Jewel and I ate at KFC. Yummy... mushroom soup and creamy tomato pasta,perfect for a rainy day. When I got home I was very sleepy and tired.

All in all Kapatiran week was a success.

3 weeks

It's been 3 weeks since school started and I can't believe that I was actually looking forward to this hectic lifestyle. I haven't read a decent book in three weeks. Three weeks! That might not be such a big deal for those who just read occasionally but for me (whose life has always been around books and such -I'm such a nerd-) it's a really, REALLY big deal. I'm suffering from withdrawal like an addict. This is really unhealthy for me considering that I have to worry about college level algebra (which makes no sense) and... and... well that's basically it. Huh... now that I think about it I sound pathetically melodramatic.

Well, aside from that this constant reading of Dramione fanfics is NOT helping. Why do I let myself get hooked so easily? Warning: Do not read Dramione fanfics! They are oddly addicting. Stop being so good fanfiction writers! Damn curiosity!

What you've read so far is just the tip of the iceberg. I've got more itsy bitsy problems. Like what I'm going to wear for Kapatiran, am I really going to dress up like Jasmine or what? For those who don't know Kapatiran is a half day activity meant to spark inter level unity and friendship. The student council this year is filled to the brim with creative minds. First, the coming back of C.A.T. officers and period, second, the students hour, and now this. Even though I've faltered a few times in juggling all of my activities I can't help but admit that I'm having fun. Sure, my best friends aren't my classmates but at least they're here. I have to be honest though, I can't help but feel bored with studying. Fridays suddenly seem like the best days in the world. In fact I should be studying right now but instead I'm blogging. -Sigh-

I hope my day gets brighter.
