18 y.o. first date

The movie tickets were ready, plus his perfume-covered brand new polo on the color of his date's favorite. His dad did the necktie and the hair-do, mom gave the allowance and a kiss of good luck. The bouquet of 12 roses on his hand from his aunt's flower shop were fresh. Cousins gave him chocolates, just in case they starved while out of place. Brother allowed him to borrow his umbrella. He was halfway to the mall but came back home after knowing that he left his jacket -thinking she might need it in the movie house.

                The sun shines highly with the clouds, everything seems to be in order. He arrived an hour earlier, ashamed to be late. Sat on the center most to be easily recognized. His eyes roamed for almost four straight hours and froze on his cellphone for another one blue hour. He then received an apology message from his date.

              "Sorry bhest, I cannot come. I'm in a flight with my ex. We're ok now :) and we've decided to face the world with just the two of us -though I still haven't explain it to my parents 'cause they won't understand me. I'll work as an accountant while he'll continue being a bartender. Thank you for the times you comforted me bhest. I'm sad we can't bond together again :( I'll miss you. Keep in touch huh? Text you later. The plane is taking off. We must turn off our gadgets now.
Keep safe!

-bhest"

              With his head down, he was bumping into other people while he was dragging his feet straight into the comfort room. Opened the nearest vacant cubicle, sobbed soundlessly. Stomped the pitiful roses for several times, and flushed the sweet chocolates.

              He came out in the starry night, walked the mile on his way home. He arrived home, and everybody was waiting for the exciting narration. Without any word, he directed to his room. Dad told them to let him rest, thinking his son was just tired for the big beautiful day. Cousins exchanged giggles with the common idea that they did something tiring.

Hele ng Anghel (Tagalog Poem)

Pinagmamasdan kitang matulog kasabay ng mga tala

na aking natatanaw sa labas ng bintana

ikaw parin ang pinakamagandang dilag sa mundo

kahit nakapikit ang marikit na mga mata mo

pula mong labi na nakadampi sa malambot na unan

na akap-akap at kama na sayo ay dumuduyan

mapayapang paligid sa kwarto mo ang humehele

sa mukha mong basa ng luha at napakainosente

aking nasaksihan sulyap ng araw sa silangan

may pamilyar na bagay na lumitaw sa iyong higaan

nasasayo parin pala panyo na aking iniabot

ng minsang pinaluha ka ng lalakeng iyong sinagot

pero ngayon ako'y sayo at ikaw ay akin na

natuto na ang puso mo muli na maging masaya

ngunit ikaw ba'y binangungot at parang nahihirapan

ako ay nabigla, tinawag mo aking pangalan

sinubukan kong haplusin ang iyong kanang pisngi

upang malisan mo ang hirap sa nasabing sandali

ngunit hindi ka nahawakan sa hindi mapaliwanag

hanggang sa ako'y lumutang patungo sa may liwanag...

Uhmmm. This poem was made for about five nights. Nights that made me hard to sleep. Nights that, I had to daydream so that I can fell asleep. Inspiring, I discovered a new way of writing -Imagining. Plotting your own story, add colors, then boom! XD I know my poem isn't that good, but uh, at least I spent my time, trying to sleep, effectively. Well, its July 16, 5days to go before our class opening in MIT (Mapua Institute of Technology -Makati Campus). Next article would be a poem :).

Upuan - Gloc 9 lyrics Ft. Jeazell of Zelle

Kayo po na naka upo
Subukan nyo namang tumayo
At baka matanaw
At baka matanaw ninyo
Ang tunay na kalagayan ko


Tao po nandyan po ba kayo sa loob ng
Malaking bahay at malawak na bakuran
Mataas na pader pinapaligiran
At naka pilang mga mamahaling sasakyan
Mga bantay na laging bulong ng bulong
Wala namang kasal pero marami ang naka barong
Lumakas man ang ulan ay walang butas ang bubong
Mga plato't kutsara na hindi kilala ang tutong
Ang kanin ay sing puti ng gatas na nasa kahon
At kahit na hindi pasko sa lamesa ay may hamon
Ang sarap sigurong manirahan sa bahay na ganyan
Sabi pa nila ay dito mo rin matatagpuan
Ang tao na nagmamay ari ng isang upuan
Na pag may pagkakataoy pinag aagawan
Kaya naman hindi nya pinakakawalan
Kung makikita ko lamang sya ay aking sisigawan ng

Kayo po na naka upo
Subukan nyo namang tumayo
At baka matanaw
At baka matanaw ninyo
Ang tunay na kalagayan ko

Mawalang galang na po sa taong nakaupo
Alam nyo bang pantakal ng bigas namin ay di puno
Ang dingding ng bahay namin ay pinagtagpi tagping yero
Sa gabi ay sobrang init na tumutunaw ng yelo
Na di kayang bilhin upang ilagay sa inumin
Pinakulong tubig sa lumang takureng uling uling
Gamit ang panggatong na inanod lamang sa estero
Na nagsisilbing kusina sa umagay aming banyo
Ang aking inay na may kayamanang isang kaldero
Na nagagamit lang pag ang aking ama ay sumweldo
Pero kulang na kulang parin ulam na toyo't asin
Ang singkwenta pesos sa maghapoy pagkakasyahin
Di ko alam kung talagang maramingharang
O mataas lang ang bakod o nagbubulag bulagan
Lamang po kayo kahit sa dami ng pera nyo
Walang doktor na makapagpapalinaw ng mata nyo
Kaya


Huwag kang masyadong halata
Bato bato sa langit
Ang tamaay huwag magalit
Bato bato bato sa langit
Ang tamaan ay
Huwag masyadong halata
Huwag kang masyadong halata

This song is from Aristotle Pollisco's (Known as Gloc-9) latest album -Matrikula. Well, supporters were all obviously excited for its music video that was officially aired its premiere on Myx on June 29 2009 but until now, July 2 2009, it wasn't uploaded yet even in the number one video site -YouTube. I didn't post this to tell what is the particular interpretation of this song, it'll be based on beholder's perspective like a portrait in a museum. Gloc's skill in writing was highly rated, filled of experience and extremely professional, a talent that I would never have -a skill that a journalist/writer would ever wish for. His expression of his feelings was easy to understand as if he was just talking to you one-on-one personally. Still, he raises his forehead on Mr. Francis Magalona, his idol and leaving his both feet on the floor. It's not the color of your pen whether it's blue, red, black or any -the most important thing is what will they understand. I hope I didn't spoil you :) Good Day!

Sophomore *Quite updated

Revelation:
I had my injury after seeing my current girl -Mary Jane Mahinay- with another. Actually, I have a friend whose committed with Jane's friend so we planned to bond near the Church but then I didn't attend so my friend brought his brother who has some feeling for Jane. So, I saw them, they saw me, they called me but I refused to join them. I walked my feet with the rainy weather to make my way home but accidentally, when we curved our way perpendicularly, there was a *Poso* -something they pump to get water- with algaes on it's ground, I slipped and trying to balance myself, I used my hands to stand on the ground but I still failed. Lying on the floor, I stand up myself and I take my way myself home ignoring the ache in my arms. I rushed to the bathroom and washed myself then I napped on the sofa with the still ache in my left arm. My mom arrived but I didn't show any difficulty on me. She handed me a KFC meal but I said i'm not yet hungry -which is a big lie- so that I won't eat in front of her (she may notice my injury). After she went up to her room, I ate my dinner wildly -I wasn't able to take my snack eh?. The next morning, I confessed it :D

Oh well,
I've been placed into the pilot section. II - St. Maximilian Kolbe under the supervision of the well-known of being very strict teacher, Mrs. Rowena B. Lazaro. It wasn't that easy for me to move on and forget the company where I came from but then I have to. Anyways, some of my former classmate is still with me :

Jofer Banalnal
Joeriena Garperio
Rafael Arguelles
Juan Miguel Garcia
Stephanie Cruz

I hope I did not miss any.
As usual, first days of classes, introducing ourselves, blah blah.
So the formal class is on. Hmm... The only thing I remember in the start is on our Mathematics lesson. Some introduction of our teacher Mr. Macailing, then some warm-up oral test. He asked "Five hundred divided by one-half plus ten is?" so some participated telling their answers but Sir didn't comment and asked if there are another answers. If I'm not mistaken, the former best in Math -Gervy Celeste- answered two hundred sixty. Weird, because I think the answer is One thousand ten. So then I hitted my try, and Sir went so mysterious not reacting still. Few seconds more, he said "The answer is One Thousand Ten". I earned some extra points because of that.
( Yea I know it's very easy! XD just a thing I can recall during the start of classes) It was my first time to be in a star section so I planned to study effectively. I focused on the subjects where I'm weak -Christian Living, Social Studies, and everything about memorization!- and boosted my knowledge on subjects I love -Mathematics, Computer, anything logical. This time, I bet my adviser is better my former one XD. Every Basic Education Curriculum session, *so-called BEC where the adviser and the student will have an opportunity to talk for some things like plans for contests, social issues, extreme feelings, hatreds, etc.* our session will have a big one circle and all of us will be given an opportunity to say something if we wished to. Meaning, every Wednesday -when BEC is scheduled- is the end of any arguement. Mrs. Rowena B. Lazaro is a scary Priest when it comes into Homily. She used to scold us because of our failures -to move, cooperate, blah blah- and those times we don't actually understand what she wants to come up with after her annoying speech. She caught me sleeping in her class -she's our Araling Panlipunan (Social Studies in English) teacher-for several times during her discussion. She will call my name and ask something that regards with the topic -which I missed to hear because I am busy dreaming >.<- then for sure I cannot answer but thank god, just a short whisper "Tsk Tsk Tsk.." will follow on her mouth.

This event is a big thingfor all of us. First of all, a week without any class :D. Last year, we also have an intramurals, but I didn't attend classes for 3 days knowing it isn't considered as school days but then it is and I was considered absent those days. Mrs. Lazaro told us that there is a trophy for the section who will grab the most medal called The Over-all Champion -Five points for Gold, three points for Silver, 1 point for Bronze- and she encourages us to achieve it (Well I think she must not expect on us ^^). I joined the Basketball and Chess team. I concentrated in Chess.
Kevinn Antonio and Ivan Bulaon are my team mates. Kevinn can play good, Ivan knows how to play -^^ guilty but it's ok- and I, -Hmm.. how should I describe my play... aha!- have a better experience with playing against Amateurs. The first game was so easy. It was against another Sophomores, and I think -telling the truth- they don't actually play Chess -because they aren't that serious... they laugh, blah blah. The second game was also easy, against Freshmen ^^
(There are 4 divisions: Junior *Freshmen and Sophomore* and Seniors *Third and Fourth Year* but of course male and female are separated).
I heard a player,who'll be my next opponent, from himself that he easily checkmated his previous newbie opponent for just four moves but I see his play (while waiting for the official games) in Novice level -that rude bastard. So our game started with a shakehands, then exchange of moves. Without any drop of sweat in my sideburns (English translation of Patilya according to google XD), I won -I have to be rude to this hopeful bastard >.< . The third game, Semi-Finals, was tough. My next opponent was an expert player according to my classmate. He can't even win against that man. It brought me to a stage of losing hope XD. Ivan's next opponent was a homosexual so I suggested, If Ivan could trick his opponent through his looks and Kevinn defeated his opponent then we shouldn't worry about my game. Unfortunately, Ivan failed. Kevinn and me are obligated to win our match. Whew! I don't know how but fortunately I won my game against that well-known expertee. So Kevinn's table is the decision match and I can see that in their position, Kevinn has a great advantage against his opponent. Even though they're not yet finished, I can declare that we won -and yes, we did. We had our way to the Finals.
(We are in a double-elimination manner of tournament and only ten teams are aspiring for the medals that made us easy to achieve the finals because we don't have any defeats yet)
We're against some Freshmen. Luckily, the known varsity of the other team was on Ivan's table -well, it's better than defeat me or Kev and trust Ivan on his playful play XD- while Kev and my opponent isn't that famous in having a great play but still we cannot say we can beat them. The Finals started at shakehands as usual, then the game started. Ivan lost for about ten minutes I think and again, we must win our table in order to win against them. The Library had it's perfect silence while the sound of the turning chess pieces gave the only noise surrounding it. My both hands were so cold while holding each other hiding under the table and my knees felt the shiver delivered by tension. At last... I had my key to win after pawning his Queen on my Rook's hand in an open check position towards his King. I didn't give him any chance to balance our pieces again. Then technically, victory is mine. Kevinn's table again is the decision match -I won my table, Ivan lost his table. But again I can see that he is almost winning. We are allowed to watch their game but not to coach of course ^^. Minutes passed, He won. The facilitators declared that we win the game set and become the Gold Placer. Whew, the pressure is gone. We rushed into our classroom sharing the good news that we added a Gold Medal on our section because we're running to have the Over-all champion Trophy. They congratulated us with smiles. Our standing was four wins, zero defeats.


I also played on our Basketball team, and we bagged the Bronze medal on it. It's okay, we don't expect our section to own the Physical games as we are in a Pilot section but still some of us exceed like Jessica Baylon who grabbed a Gold in Badminton. Yes, our section owned the mind games and bagged many gold in it. To estimate, we received nine Gold medals. We received all the medals for us during the awardings, plus the most prestigious award : The Over-all Champion. We all went up to the stage and took the big trophy with big grins while holding the one which we sweated for. Our adviser congratulated us personally and had her speech for our learnings when we went up into our classrooms.


So back to sophomore life XD
I got eliminated for the running for honors after having an 81 grade in Science. Well, it's a bad news after all. Actually during the Intramurals week, I consulted Ms. Valdez -our Science teacher- about my grade's health XD -i know this subject is a very threat for me. She said, "I won't tell you. Just enjoy the Intramurals for now" in English XD (Hindi ko sasabihin sayo. Mag-enjoy ka muna ngayong intrams). It's okay, ^^.

Ms. Marilou Valdez is our Science teacher. She was my favorite one. She talked to me personally one day asking "Mr. Macailing was shocked how did you come up with 81 for he said he know you are good in Math and yet, Mathematics is a branch of Science. It seems you're having a difficulty in my subject. I wanna know the reason behind this. Sometimes I wonder, is it because of me? Am I too fast in discussing? Am I not good in teaching?". I explained my experience during elementary that I noticed my difficulty in memorization but it was easy for me to tackle logical subjects. She appreciated my answer and explained about the left and right brain where logic and creativity are stocked. That since birth, a man could be great in logic but weak in creativity, vice versa, or balanced but not exceeding. I took her number from a classmate and I kept on texting her about this things, etc. One time, she said that I'm a good child and if she'll be a mother, she'd like to have a son like me. My mom have read this message and she asked who she is, I said she's my science teacher
(Oops, Jealous) :D.
She was the first Science teacher who understand and appreciated me after all my low performance on her subject. Actually, once I apologized for not having a great knowledge on her subject but she was dazzled saying,it's not the knowledge which matters, it's the interest for a student to learn. The next quarters, even though I'm low in her tests, I had 85 in my card XD.

My dad arrived december to have his Christmas break vacation here in Philippines. And a bad welcome for him, I had a fever -Typhoid Fever. I wasn't able to attend class for several days. I was confined in a hospital for seven days. That was my first time being sent into a hospital #-o.
Someone texted me and my cousin read it for me:
"Kamusta ka na?"
(How are you)
I told her to reply:
"Eto nakahiga nagpapahinga"
(I'm here lying, having my rest)


I cannot forget that Ms. Valdez also beeped on my cellphone:
"Pgaling kna.
Miss n kta sa rum :)"
(Get well soon.
I miss you in your classroom)
I wasn't able to take her periodical test about reproductive system *which I know I'll fail* so I requested for a special test but she told me not to worry instead, have my rest and she'll take care of it. I wonder what is she planning to do. Fortunately, I had 85 again in my card :D. I know my unit test we're about twenty over fifty items. Now I know ~~,

Bad news, I wasn't able to attend our Christmas Party and Family Day.

Hmm.. what more...

Yea, my classmated shared something
"Haha, ui! Ba't daw ganun reply mo ky Mrs. Lazaro? Haha...
(Haha hey! Why did you replied to Mrs. Lazaro in that way?)"
I asked for any clue because I don't know what he is talking about "Huh?".
"Eto, nakahiga, nagpapahinga
(I'm here lying, having my rest)"
he said with a follow-up contagious laugh.
"Ay, si Mrs. Lazaro ba yun? (Oh, is it Mrs. Lazaro?)"
"Haha uo! nagtaka nga eh... tinatanong kami kung bakit ganun ka daw magreply
(Haha, yea! actually she was curious... asking us why did you reply in that way)"
"Kasi, yung pinsan ko nagbasa ng text eh. Sinabi ko nalang kung ano irereply nya. Hindi kasi binasa kung kanino galing eh, kala ko kaklase lang"
(It's because, it is my cousin who read the message. I just told her what to reply. She didn't even read if it's sender, I thought it's just a classmate)
Whoa, what an impolite reply XD.

Hmm...

Oh yea, our fieldtrip!
I forgot about it XD
Hmm... sorry but I can't recall.

Our recollection. The only scene I remember is, we're stranded because our bus had a problem so we went home so late for had to wait for the cars to pick us up.

Mrs. Rowena B Lazaro is the best adviser for me. After all, she wasn't that scary anymore XD. We realized this because of this scenario:
She was having her homily -scolding us for something we did. We were solemnly listening to her speech and her voice was very striking like you would prefer to lose your ears than hear it while...
...a cockroach approached...
"Ay Ipis!"
(Oh Cockroach!!)
The class wasn't able to hold our small giggles XD. For sure she saw it, but then the mood changed and the homily ended. We realized that sometimes she wasn't really mad just because she's scolding us. It is just because she wants us to LEARN.

--------------------------------------------------------------

-I'm on the rightmost part, standin', without cap-

Another scenario!
This year, I participated on our Street Dance Competition. Well, it is a contest against different year levels. I, Kevinn, Jofer, Jessica, Joeriena, Lina, Karla and Stephanie were the participants from our section. We rehearsed every Saturday sleepy morning 'til hot afternoon at GYM I. The soundtrack we used was remixed -Gimme That by Chris Brown, Fergilicous by Fergie, and I forgot the first song actually XD. The Fourth Year level achieved the First place while we bagged the second place. It's okay, part of experience ~~,

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another picture XD
It's Dota Boys except Aljo, the one below.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, i'm done
Oh well, I'm glad I've updated my blog again.
Compared to other school year entries, this maybe the longest one.
