Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up. These are the best times of our lives.

After four years of being in the Special Science Class of Iloilo National High School, it's been very different here in AC. In high school, we were bombarded with school work and research, we were required to make a thesis by the time we graduated, individually. Now, being in AC is like a breath of fresh air. It's less stressful, and more manageable. I didn't even think of enrolling in AC at first, I was determined to get in the Theater Arts program of UP Diliman, but my aunt asked me to take the entrance exam here since AC has been investing in a good theater arts program as well. So i took it, passed, was offered the scholarship. But I still didn't consider, since I passed the UP program too. My mom and I went to AC just to look around and explore my options, it was until Miss Pinky talked to us and compared UP's program to ours that we had second thoughts. After that, bit by bit, I started considering AC and eventually enrolled. The first day was a breeze, I met new friends, my first close friend was Iyah. She was my roommate, so we spent a lot of our time together. As the week went by, our group of friends expanded and we slowly felt like we belonged. The first semester is coming to an end real soon, and it seemed just like yesterday that we were all shy freshmen at the orientation. Before we know it, we'll part, shift courses and schools. But I guess college is about experimenting, discovering who we are and who we want to be. I don't regret choosing AC, as long as I get to do what I love, I'll be happy. So here's to the coming years AC and I will have together! cheers. :)

College is ze shizz.

Well, not really. More like a breath of fresh air. Less school work and no research. But being away from home is really, really hard. :| I miss my friends and family so much. It's really depressing sometimes, I wake up early in the morning and I remember afternoons in SSC with the Sapphire class. It feels like home when I remember them. I try not to sound emo on this blog but it's inevitable, when I'm such a drama queen. LOL. The toughest part is being away from ONE person. It's funny how I promised myself not to get in a relationship before I left for college, technically I didn't. I got in one like a couple of weeks after. :P I'm sorry world. But I don't regret getting in one. He makes it a whole lot better. :) Note to self: I must refrain from being cheesy on this blog too. i am rambling veecoz i do not know what to write anymore. So yeah, nothing more to say actually. I just remembered this blog's existence, so i decided to make a new blog post. 'til the next time i remember after i forget. Toodles. :)

Nostalgia kicks in.

It's depressing to see everything go by so fast. College entrance results are out, the first results were from ADMU. Not making it sucks so much. It's like it sucked the life out of me, like there's this blackhole in the middle of my stomach. Just waiting to be filled. I feel empty, i don't mean to sound emo. But I seriously find this pathetic. I can't say I'm happy with where I'm at. What am I going to look forward to when I keep screwing things like this up? I can't think straight. I don't know what'll happen. Maybe partly because I refuse to accept defeat and compromise. I really thought all of this would work out. But it's isn't. It's tangled and messed up. It's like a shitty world in your face. My family says it's okay. I know they're disappointed with me, so there's no point in convincing myself otherwise. I can't imagine how I'm going to make it out of this one. I don't want to sour grape or make lameass excuses. But it really feels so suckish. My ability to cry when i sense the smallest feeling of frustration and disappointment is so pathetic I wanna pull my eyes out. I don't know what to do anymore. Fuck this. I fail big time.

BLOG RULES.

BLOG RULE # 1: Total FREEDOM; anything and everything.

If we were to make one blog rule for our sites, I'd suggest freedom. No formats, no nothing. No rules to follow, just write anything you want. Express anything up to any extent. You can cuss if you want. HAHA. (but i don't think ma'am adelle would tolerate that. :D) We can use pictures to express what we want to express, songs, poems. You get the point, the sky is the limit.

I think this rule would help us develop our creativity, 'cause with this, we make new ways of expression. Also, with this rule, we would be more interested in writing on our blogs and do it not just because we have to comply with this requirement but because, we really want to. So for me, that would be a great idea. Being open to everything and anything. Total freedom! :D

if only it were that simple.

i was stuck at home on saturday, it's pathetic, really. All i did was torture myself with Zanessa pictures on the internet. I can't help it, Zac Efron is too hot to ignore. For the record, I still hate Vanessa. I'd like to make that clear. haha. :)

So i got another tooth extraction and it's not that bad. I just don't like it when my face gets super round & chubby. It makes me look like a pumpkin. It's horrible and unattractive. So anyway, i don't write on this blog often because of the excruciatingly slow internet. It makes me cuss a lot and i have vowed to avoid swearing as much as possible. My attempt to stop swearing is unsuccessful & i don't think i have a plan B. So, yeah, whatever.

TTFN! ;)
