Day 20: Happy Mother’s Day

Well, I would like to greet my Mom a Happy Mother’s Day. Hope she’s happy this day. Hopefully we could go out later on and celebrate it. I hope so. Uhm, Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mothers out there. To my friends’ Mothers. To my aunts and grandmothers. I salute you guys for being the light of the family. For giving inspiration to us children, for supporting and bringing us up as good citizens and for loving and caring us with all your best. I have the best experience with my Mom for she took care of me alone for some time while my Dad was working far away. It was like 14 years I think. I don’t know. That’s why I’m really close to my Mom unlike my two older sisters and especially I’m the youngest and the only boy so she literally spoiled me with everything that I want and I thank her for that.

For my Mom, thank you because you were the greatest kind of Mom I could ever wish for. You were kind, loving, caring, thoughtful and really generous with us, your children. You were always there for us from morning until night making sure we’re ready for tomorrow for school or if we have plans to go somewhere else. Thank you also for loving our Dad and staying strong for us to be a good, healthy family although we had so many family problems. I salute you and I hope that you wouldn’t change and just be who you are. We, as your children, are especially proud of you because you brought us up as good citizens and giving us quality education at private schools so we could be successful as we graduate. Thank you for pushing yourself and Dad to let us study at private schools even though we had some financial problems before. Ate Abby already graduated from College without any failures or problems and I think that’s her token of appreciation for letting her study at her prestigious alma mater. Well, in 4 years, hopefully I could also do that and return back all the favor that you guys gave to us by having a decent, nice-paying job in order to support our family. Hopefully that Ate Tricia could also return back to studying at least vocational courses so she could at least make her own business and could earn up money for her own good.

Well, I have so many things to say but I guess I’ve already expressed it through all the hugs and kisses and I gave to you each and every single day. I love you Mom, I wish you all the best. Hopefully we could stay longer as a healthy family and yeah, be happy for today. I want both of you to be proud of me someday. I love you Mom!

Man, I was so dramatic with that but yeah, that’s how much I love my Mom! She’s like the best mom for me. I wouldn’t compare her to anything else becasue I’m contented with how the way she loves and cares for us, her children.

Happy Mother’s Day to you guys!

Day 19: What now?

May 5th. Today is Gilette’s Birthday. Happy Birthday for her.

Uhm, well, countdown until summer is over began a few days ago so it’s like a whole month and a week to go before my summer will end and as for some, don’t know. Going to college will be a tough adjustment for me as I’m still not yet over or moved on with the High School life I’ve had with great friends and great people. Great teachers and yeah, whoever. What now to expect? Don’t know. Probably I’ll be more independent as I’m preparing myself to be a worker and strive to have money to support myself, my family and my future family. Well, a little bit nervous but yeah, learning to be serious and forget about the good life. It’s going to be a hard one for me.

But since it’s my life summer before having those short breaks and intense school work, I’d have to at least do all the things I wanted or the things I’m not going to be able to do in college like what my friends and I usually do way back in High School. I’d say I’ve been productive this summer as I’ve been able to do stuff early and being able to earn some money as I’m saving up for something valuable for me. Then I’ve enrolled early to get a slot for college and my schedule. I’ve had some roadtrips and bonded with my family. Only things that are left to do is to have some more vacation and have motivation to do better in college. I hope this works for me now because I need all the motivation and inspiration to do so.

What else? I guess nothing more. I’m sleepy. Got to change my body clock also for college. Got to do it.

Might to do some list again for college and whatsoever. I still lack a lot of stuff that I need and I badly need it before I’d start schooling for college.

Good Night guys!

 

Day 18: Stoked for college? I guess not.

Just enrolled for college yesterday and yet, I think I’m not ready for it or so. Maybe I’m just feeling a little bit unusual because college is like a serious matter for any student. Maybe yes or not, I don’t know. I need to be serious from it and I think I’m not capable of it yet. The subjects, the people, the environment I’m going to be at. It’s not High School anymore. I wouldn’t be having those recess or lunch breaks where I’ll just eat with my friends or do nothing. I’m expecting that I would be spending it doing some school works or studying for an upcoming quiz or exam. Don’t know. I guess the “happy days” are over.

Well, I should focus and think about it. I need to be serious or what. It’s bugging me. I feel nervouse about this.

Summer is ticking away, a month or so I guess. Come on. Be productive. I need to make myself confident and do something to relieve myself from this whatever.

Tummy aches. Ouch.

 

Day 17: Good Friday and Earth Day today. Celebrating the Holy Week.

So yeah, yesterday, since it was our tradition to visit some churches that we used to do before but haven’t done lately, we went back to one of the churches mom used to visit before. Since it was like more than 3 hours of travel to get there, we left Manila around 8 30 and got there at afternoon. We didn’t expect the traffic and we made some stop-overs so we arrive in the afternoon. Gladly, when we got at the church, they were holding a mass so we stayed for a while and heard the mass for an hour. Since we’re also travelling back, we didn’t finish it and head back home. Well, we ate some snacks outside the church then drove back home.

I reflected from all the things I’ve done since the last time I made a visit there. I prayed and lit a candle together with my family for our petitions and blessings that we had. It was nice to see that they made a lot of improvements with the church and now, I see it as very organized and really clean unlike before where everything was messed up and people would just go their own ways.

From our travel, I’ve seen a lot doing some penitence of their own by carrying the cross or hitting their backs with some I don’t know what you call them. Well, it’s their way of asking for forgiveness so I better not judge at how they want to do it. I just think that it’s too much of a sacrifice doing those things right? Just reflect and be honest and true about asking for His forgiveness this Holy Week. I know we have done a lot of sins and mistakes that we really regret and we should really be considerate of respecting the Holy Week and do what Catholics are supposed to do this week.

Oh well, we’ll be hearing mass later on for the Good Friday and maybe on Sunday also since Mom’s birthday will be on Monday.

Happy Birthday Mom! You know how much I love you. Thank you for all the things you’ve done and you’ve given me. Thanks for all the advices, the teachings and lectures you said to me. I learned a lot from it. I hope I could give back all the things you gave to me as I’m about to finish college in less than five years. I hope I could at least return all the gifts and favors you’ve done for me. I will support our family as long as I could. May you have more blessings, good health and more birthdays to come.

I LOVE YOU MOM!

Dau 16: It’s been hot.

Well, it’s been 2 weeks since my last post here and I forgot to do some entry due to my busy sched since I’m preparing for college and I’ve been doing a lot of house chores to keep me busy instead of being bored right in front of the computer.

And I’ve been watching How I met your mother Season 6 lately and I totally got hooked to it so I’ve been forgetting to update my sites, especially my blog sites which I’ve committed myself to but good thing I remembered.

I’ve been in a lot for the past 2 weeks. Had this emotional thing in my head that’s still unresolve but somehow I’m getting enlightened and forgetting of remembering it. It’s just inevitable but yeah, I should accept it, no matter what.

I was busy preparing for my college life. I’ve been doing stuff to get my requirements from my alma mater and other requirements that my school is asking for. Gladly, I’ve completed it and yeah, almost done. Just going to have my entrance exam tomorrow in the afternoon (wish me luck) and I think I would be getting my results right after it so I hope I could get in to enroll at this early of Summer so I wouldn’t mind anything for May.

So yeah. Still having a great Summer I think. I’m just not yet ready to leave this schooling life yet. I terribly miss being a High School student. The life, my friends and everything that we’re free to do as a High School kid but yeah, we all need to grow up. We come and go so yeah, we should mature and be independent on our own. Gonna be working and going to have my own family soon so I have to study hard for it to make a good life for them. Like my family and my life that I have right now, wish I could pass it to my future family.

Ahh, so dramatic but it’s me. I’m growing up.

Day 15: It’s Summer! Wooh..

It was a really busy week for me this past week. We had our Senior’s Night last Sunday and it was one hell of a great night. Really enjoyed it and had my last tim to bond with some of my classmates before heading to graduation. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, we had our practices. We were really busy and were so tensed about our upcoming graduation so I had no time updating my posterous and my blogs. Wooh! 

Finally, I’m a High School graduate! Had our commencement exercises last Thursday and my classmates were emotional at that time. Who couldn’t be emotional during their graduation? We’re graduating from HS. We’ll be saying goodbye to our classmates who we’ve been with for 2-4 years. We’ll be missing how strict our teachers and counselors with the school’s rules and regulations. We’ll be missing all the things that we’ll not see in College anymore.

Well, after our graduation, it was officially the start of of Summer. Finally, I’ll be able to rest for a long time after the stressing last school-year in HS. I’ll be preparing myself for College cause I know it’s going to be a tough one for me. I’ll be taking up Information Technology but I don’t know what school yet. Hope I could get along with it because it’s going to be a hassle if I need to shift to another one.

Day 14: Friday (not referring to the Rebecca Black song)

So tomorrow is a Friday. No school for us. Yehey! Wooh! Don’t know why and I don’t want to know anymore. I’m gonna rest and will just prepare for our Senior’s Night on the Sunday. After that, we’ll be having a few more graduation practices then yeah! Going to college.

What else? Just had song practices yesterday and today because we already got what we’re going to do during graduation so we’ll just practice it seriously next week. Then there goes the whole day sched again.

 

Day 13: Bequeathal Night

It was our Bequeathal last night. Our usual turnover of superiority to the incoming Seniors for the next school-year and the passing of our burden to them to be the role models of our alma mater. I wish them luck as they take on the tasks and responsibilities of being the Seniors and the leader of their department. They’ll soon be able to realize how hard it would be as a Senior student as you’ll have to do something memorable as it would be their last year in High School. The requirements, the works and everything that a Senior student must do and comply, they would experience it and nobody is exempted from it. Their only goal in this year level is to able to graduate. That would be the only goal of a Senior student.

Oh well, it was okay. Same as last year although we had some few add-ons. We wouldn’t able to dance as some parts of the program consumed a lot of the alloted time of the event so they just skipped the dancing part. We haven’t even seen the video of our Senior year memories but I wish we would have it on our Senior’s Night, this coming Sunday. That would be our last event of this year then graduation!

Oh yeah, everyone in our batch would graduate so that was an achievement for us because no one would be left behind. Although we weren’t that close to each other but I can feel that our batch is really united as we were able to inspire and helped our fellow batchmates to at least exert effort to be able to march on graduation day. Proud of them. Well, it might look a little bit of a lie but yeah, I’m proud of them.

What now? We still have practices for our graduation so that’s a bummer for us. WTH?! Can’t we have just some break? Just a day or so? But glad it would just be a half-day for us. I would go back home and avenge my sleep. I’ll be needing a long rest for the upcoming events this week.

And finally, hmm. Yeah. The end of the road. Graduation is upcoming and I’m excited to march and receive my diploma and head on to College. I’ll be able to have some freedom and at least be ready for work. Excited for it!

Day 12: 2 weeks before summer.

Okay. Tomorrow is another Monday. A week before this school year ends. Almost done with everything or not? Don’t know. Am I lacking requirements? I’m confused. Guess I’m getting nervous of this graduation thing. Calm down! Wooh. Breathe..

Well, something actually happened last week. Can’t desbribe it but it’s usual me. The “Me” during the Summer season.

But nah. Just tell it after summer. Don’t know where would it take me again so I’ll just keep it to myself for now. Still.. Nah.

I’m torn. Torn between them again. Don’t know. Come on!

Mass later on.

Expecting a busy week this time. Bequeathal on Tuesday and still don’t know what to wear for that. Smart casual? WTH am I supposed to wear for a theme like that?

 

Day 11: Back pains!

1 and a half week before grad. WTH. It’s coming and there. I’m out of High School.

Had our practices the whole week. Had my exams last Wednesday and Thursday. Had our last mass for the school-year today. Yeah. We’re almost about to end this school-year. Oh yeah.

Oh hell. I’m experiencing again my usual back pains. It came back. Thought it was gone but there, it’s haunting me right now. I need some sleep I guess. Been sitting too much with a curved back. Maybe that’s the reason or so. 

What else? Bequeathal on Tuesday. Our Senior’s Night on Sunday next week. Busy sched. Oh what the hell. Can I get some rest? Although we’re not on a regular school-day schedule this week, I’m sure that we’ll be doing a lot of tasks and preparations for Graduation and other school requirements to complete. Now I’m experiencing how hard being a graduate is. Thought we’re just going to get our diploma and just bow then DONE! But NOOOOO!! We have to do a lot of things just in order to graduate. WTH?

Oh well. Wish me luck I guess.
