Stress and being an idiot

And Hansel said to Gretel; let us drop these bread crumbs, so that together we find our way home – excerpt from the TV series, One Tree Hill

Happy New Year everyone, I’m back; first off 2006 has been, stressful. A while ago we had our exams on Science and Christian living took place. I’d rather not comment because karma is being evil to me this year. Tomorrow we have Math and Filipino. I spend the afternoon studying for Math; I think I devoted nearly four hours practicing and memorizing formulas. As for Filipino, I spend another 2 hours on it, reading Florante at Laura. I’m gonna wake up early tomorrow morning and go over my notes again. Now you see why I’m stressed? Yesterday nearly seven hours for Science and I screwed up this morning test, I think. Tomorrow, balancing Social Science and English will be difficult. English is grammar, as Ms. Kate puts it very elementary, but rules and literary stories from the book will need some analysis. As for Social Science, hands down memorization is the key to pass. I’m going to be really busy these next few days.

Friday after exams we have band practice coming up, practicing for TPA week and if ever we get into St. Paul, I guess that’s considered as practice as well. Afterwards sleepover in LSGH because I was invited to Roadtrip! organized by the LFC (Lasallian Formation Center) to embark on a journey to discover your Lasallian roots. We are off to DLSU Dasma and DLSU-Manila for Saturday’s activity. Then Sunday, we have our usual SBMA sessions.

What a week coming up, I just hope I don’t lose my way. Several times I have broken down to pieces giving up on something important. I hope I’ll find my way back.

On the lighter side:

Joseph Yeo apologized to Enrico Villuaneva, pretty old news though. News had it that during the apology, no words were spoken during that dinner.

Some say I grew fat, some say I lost weight. I say they are nuts. Oh come on, its Christmas season everyone grows fat! Well, during Christmas Day and New Years Eve I didn’t care about how much I ate, but at the province, I was fasting. Well, they cook for Pinoy Food. The more cholesterol, the better ; The less appealing food tastes the best(like Dinuguan,, grr). So yeah I lost my appetite.

Remember, I’d rather be stupid than to be a genius. A genius has limits, stupidity doesn’t. :P

Anyway I remember a few years back when I made a silly prank phone call at around 10 in the evening. I was bored to death so I decided to do it. I scrolled through my old phone just pressing the up button to randomly select a number and poof; I pressed call without looking at whom I was calling. It started ringing…

Girl on the Phone (GP) – Hello Good evening… this is..
*I rudely interrupt*
Me (M) – Hi good evening is this globe telecom?
GP – Why.. yes it is sir
M – really know? How would I know that you’re playing a trick on me?
GP – Sir because you dialed the hotline
*I looked at the number and shit, 211. Globe hotline, damn it*
M – In that case can I have a large super supreme pizza?
*Then in the old Pizza hut song*
M – 211-1111, 211-1111, 211-1111, globe delivery
I hung up. Luckily during that time globe didn’t record conversations and numbers as well.

And finally, now I know why I love group works during class time. You can always blame someone else :D

And, I got something amusing from soloflite’s blog:

5. If you are given an openbook exam, you will forget your book

Corollary: If you are given a take home exam, you will forget where you live

You know.. this is kinda true.

Just goes to show how *stupid* I am. A few more stories to come in the future.
