Probably one of the worst weeks ever.
My gaaaddd....Terrible week,i say. Even worse than exams week. I thought i'd be able to rest a little since its only the start of the 4th quarter, but HAH.Was i ever wrong.Di na ako nasanay sa ob. The scrapbook and the newspaper were both due this week, and last minute cramming was done in both projects.Kasi naman sa scrapbook,the teachers kept making last minute changes and kept changing the lay-out and what not.ang daming kaartehan when it was never like that since...ever.They just love giving students a hard time.Tapos for the newspaper, deadline was this friday and we haven't accomplished much even though we've been staying at arvin's house to do it. I've been multi-tasking more than i ever had before this week, doing the scrapbook in between classes and even during classes when the teacher wasn't really making us do much. So half of my table would be the scrapbook,and the other half would be some stinkin' seatwork, journal entry,or whatever and i'd be doing both.Grabeee,hassle.
Hmm,ok so thursday. May bago nanamang pakulo ang ob... they are now allowing students to showcase their talents in music by allowing the students with bands to perform in ob's restaurant, la dolce fontana during lunch time.Si Chua,Byron,JP and Darrel got me and hazel for their vocalists. Would've been really happy and all, but it somehow didnt feel right. Somehow the thought of it was weird to me, and i knew that that it'd just add even more hassle to the topsy-turvy life in school. I was right. So the bands have to audition pa and stuff to the principal,coz she only wants mellow music.Thats fine,not like i can sing rap or rock anyway. Tapos may mga schedules pa,one band per day,tapos dapat may outfits pa. And since all the slots were full na, if we'd get accepted we'd have to play during the 11-12 lunch break of the freshmen and sophomores, meaning we'd miss class and have to catch up nanaman.Pagod na ako sa kaka-catch up. I'm gonna be missing a lot na as it is, coz me,karla and jas are gonna be part of the formal dinner performance of the juniors. The theme is alumni's homecoming party, and we'll be doing a sort of excerpt of all the shows and plays that ob did in the past with sina lea salonga,aisa seguerra,isabel granada, geneva cruz,etc. Jas is gonna be little lea(annie), karla's gonna be cinderella and i'm gonna be princess jasmine.hehehe. Well, were gonna stay till after school and miss a few classes. .Oh yeah, and there's that performance for the prom that me,hazel and jas are gonna do with the o-five band in school.Magpa-practice din yun.so if i join the band pa, who'll probably practice din after school or on saturdays after CAT, goodness there'll be nothing left of me to go to college.I'd die before graduation.
Ok,so continuation.Here's one good thing that happened. During computer time, the bands that were supposed to audition were excused. We were supposed to play "same ground", but the chords were kinda alanganin coz kinapa lang nila yun and we didnt have time to practice. Plus i'm still a little paos, probably a left-over from the flu i had. Luckily,when the principal saw me, she didnt let us audition na since she said she knew me na and trusted that we wouldn't do anything rock or too loud or whatever.Hahaha,thats what you get from having such a small and
matinis voice.No one would picture you singing a rock song.But then i dont really feel it,and am just doing it as a favor to hazel. Anyways, after school me and karla had to practice for that formal dinner thing, and we finished mga 6:15-6:30 na. Rushed to arvin's house and started again on the newspaper. We stayed till mga 10:30 to 11pm, and we all planned to finish up when we went home and not sleep,as much as possible. So i did all i had to and all i could do and finished at 5 am. Planned not to sleep anymore and just wait nalang for sunrise or something, but my bed was too inviting. Slept for 2 hours. 7:30, went to karla's house and the poor girl didnt sleep AT ALL. We planned on going to school nalang late,like at around lunch time so we could finish up. (all our parents knew about this by the way,and we had excuse letters). But then it was already noon and we still had so much stuff to do, so we ended up finishing it and literally running to school to submit it at 5 minutes to 5 o'clock. BARELY made it. At the gate, the guards stopped us, but then we practically just flung the excuse letters at them and rushed to the faculty room. As expected, our journ teacher was just a pain in the behind. And she, being one of the most saddistic teachers i have ever had said that she'd charge us of cutting classes coz our excuse letters only said that we'd be late, but we got to school dismissal na. What the hell?!? i mean, We went through hell just finishing this stupid requirement of hers, and i know that she knows we didnt cut and that we worked on it. Nagpapanggap na law-abiding. Ob has the stupidest system in history pa. We talked to our adviser, and he said it was ok naman eh. Later on, arvin texted and said that the principal would talk to us daw on monday. Oh my god. I've never been to the academic office for an incident report or whatever, and the fact that ALL my groupmates were the ones who got suspended doesn't help one bit. If they charge us for cutting classes i will seriously consider assasinating them. i told my mom and she agreed to make a letter saying that she knew about it and all, but knowing Duran and knowing OB, it's gonna be bad!! No sleep for 40 hours and this is what i get. Fudge. See, this is why i cant feel the sadness in graduating and leaving this place forever. With all thats been happening, we just cant wait to get out. We've been measured na for our togas, received our grad pics, picking out the grad song and whatever, and still i cant really feel the remorse of graduating. 5 weeks nalang....
