Good Times

Thanks friends!

Today was a blast! My friends and I spent our whole afternoon together. We sat at the grass, took pictures, and my friends even laid down the grass. Well I didn't bother joining them. This afternoon was just a fine day. The wind was cool. It was not that dark nor shiny. My ideal whether.

We also watched a puppet show at school. I love it especially the story about the history of the Philippines. Speaking of Philippines, I still am not over about the hostage drama at Manila. It was quite a shame for me. The people now in different parts of the world are like laughing at us. I feel like all of us Filipinos are criminals.

Nevertheless, let's check at the brighter side. Ms. Venus Raj, our candidate for Miss Universe won 4Th place. I'm so uplifted with that news. She also made her own mark. Who could not recognize the line "major major"? These situations made me realized that there is always a good thing and a bad thing which we could not help from happening.

There's a rainbow always after the rain....

Hello!!

Another long time since I haven't post happenings in my life. Hahaha... Something's unusual for these past few days. I AM GOING HOME EARLY. Before I was still on my way home by 6 in the evening. It paved way for me to study. Anyway, it was my cousin's 5Th birthday yesterday. It was very enjoying, I even saw the mothers of my cousin's classmates drinking. Cool right?

Going back to my studies, It has been well since I'm already going home early. My quizzes are still at average scores. I wonder why. I think I'll be doing twice harder this time. The card day by the way is on Friday. What would be my grades??? I better pray that it will be high enough. I don't want to disappoint myself and my parents. Going home earlier than usual is the only thing I can brag about. Nothing's too special for me this week. God, I miss the velada practices!

Going to do my hardest this time....

Rewind...rewind...



Many things has happened for this one month celebration.........

To start the month long celebration, we had a mass. To end it, we also had a mass. I have already noted those and you all know what we had been doing at school. Well for last week, since I didn't have time to post our activities because of my practices for the velada, I'll just share it to you now....

Last Sunday there was a fun run from SM City Iloilo to the school but I didn't participate in it. I was really tired from the practice and I have to do my projects. Last Monday there was nothing much extraordinary. Tuesday, we didn't have a practice for the velada...my only free time. Wednesday, the most fun day ever. We had the Centennial Fun Fair, there were lots of games, rides and the prizes were so grand, they even gave out television sets and refrigerators. Unbelievable right? Me and my friend was the second one to ride the Ferris wheel and it was my first time to stay up there for a long time. I also bought a ring that has the Assumption sign. Luckily, there was a size 7 which really fits my finger.
That same day, we had our technical rehearsal alone. I was very nervous at that time because I am afraid to commit a mistake. Well actually I did make a mistake. Hahaha... Our departure time that day was 10 pm. I was a little bit frustrated at that time. It was done already. Thursday we had our official technical dress rehearsal. We were all pressured. It was like already the day of the performance. The performers were really good and the costume was twice as good as their performance. They seriously spent a lot for this production. Friday was the big day. We, the crew, was dismissed earlier than the rest. I really recalled everything I could so that I would not do any mistake. So the matinee show started and it was smooth. So was the gala show. Many of my classmates went to see the gala show, all that I heard from them was nice complements, which means our show was a success.
Yesterday we had a parade with other alumnae. It was very nice to see them back to their uniforms. My sister, who is also an alumna, borrowed from me a blouse. The parade was from Freedom Grandstand to our school it was then followed by a mass, celebrated by Auxiliary Bishop Alminaza. There was also a snack given to us courtesy of the school.

I then waited for my sister thinking that she was still inside the campus. To my surprise, she was at her friends home changing for the dinner. I was hesitant at first but then I just followed her. The dinner was in her friends restaurant and the food was delicious. Well that ended my day.

I hope that there will be more activities.....

One of The Best

Be a light to others....

Glad I didn't miss that concert yesterday of Alvin Barcelona and the Himaya Band. So sorry of those who didn't experience that. It was seriously different from what most of us expect. I'll note that down as one of the best things that I encountered in my high school life. I really admired the musicians that played for us. They have different stories but only had one way, to the Lord. One of them had the worst time of his life when he tried to commit suicide 4 yrs. ago. After an hour he did it, he came back to his senses. Good for him. I realized that praising God is not only about being serious all the time, in fact Bro. Alvin Barcelona gave a new perspective on how to praise the Lord..... very unforgettable.

After the concert, I headed straight to the bazaar at the multi-purpose hall of PNB. There was nithing much to see but I bought this BOB shoes which I have been finding all around Iloilo. Thank God I found it.....

I also have a hectic schedule because I'm part of the velada, specifically on the props. We had late practices which also favors me because my sister's dismissal time's 7 in the evening. Good cause I have a friend dormer. I also learned many things in our practices that would certainly help us on our play. We're working with professionals!!!

Still haven't rest..... I still have practice tomorrow.
