lowest grade ever

oh well i got my grade in acctg1 today. and tadah, i got a 3! my lowest grade in UP to date. but what the heck, at least it's not a 4 or a 5.

my grade was on the borderline so i vowed to study acctg1 during the holy week and that was what i did. then last tuesday, after our finals exam, our third exam was given back. i failed it and this almost brought me to tears. i was losing all my hopes. but i thought i still have a chance to pass if i get a good grade in the finals. so these past three days, all i did was to pray hard for my finals and the good Lord didn't fail me. i went to ba this morning and learned that i got a 3! woohoo! if you only saw me that very moment! i looked like crazy, smiling by myself. ahaha. before i went home, i decided to go to the Church and attend the Mass to thank God for granting my wish.

well, acctg1 isn't really that hard. and me almost failing, was my fault. i was too lazy listening to my prof and taking down notes. i shall be contented with a 3. but i promise this will be my last 3 in my life. magtitino na talaga ako next sem. itaga niyo yan sa bato.

(to prof. guantes, salamat po sa pagpasa sa akin. mabait ka naman pala eh. wahaha.)

18-03-08 story

i missed multiply-ing so i shall make a lot of entries. hohohoho. for this one i'll make kwento about my march 18.

my march 18 started with econ102. i was at home, cramming. studying the powerpoints while making the probset. then i thought i couldn't make it anymore. i needed some help from my dearest classmates. so i went to UP around 1pm. i stayed in the library and there i got all the help i needed. i finished my probset in 3 hours time. woohoo.

after that, i met my hs best friend, rachelle on the se lobby, handed her the book she was borrowing from me, then ran upstairs to submit my probset. i suddenly realized that i left my best friend without saying a word. i really felt bad doing that. and so i followed her in their tambayan in vinzon's hall and said sorry for going without even saying good bye to her. good thing it was no big deal for her. then we saw our other best friend, tricia. goodness i miss them so much. we were inseparable when we were still in high school. but now that we are in college, though we study in the same university, we barely see each other and we don't get to talk much anymore. awww.

i went back to the tambayan and when i arrived, they were talking about happiness [courtesy of jamoy]. what is happiness? i don't know how to define. who is/are my happiness? only one person knows and i shall share my happiness with that person. around 6:30pm we decided to go to katip's bar for the induction ball. thanks kuya noel for the ride!

the program started a little past 7pm. as far as i could remember we had the newly elected execomers, the awarding of the outstanding mems, the induction of the apps, the awarding of the outstanding apps, and the seniors' send-off. i just don't know if that's the right chronology of things. good job we apps! almost all of us made it through the cut.

i am now officially a member of the UP Economics Society. yey! but i really felt that all my efforts paid-off especially when i received the outstanding app award, along with dave, niki, terry, cathy, patrick, ogie, bhadz, kim, and the most outstanding app award for carl. IT REALLY WAS WORTH IT. i enjoyed every single moment of my app process and i am looking forward to more happy times now that i am a mem already.

after the awarding of the outstanding apps, we apps had a short presentation to show our appreciation to the whole ecosoc family. we sang a song and read a poem. i sooo love the poem and it goes like this:

Aries, Aries
Ang sarap mong ikiss
Nagbuhos ng kanyang dugo at pawis
Sa org na itong walang kaparis

Mykel, Mykel
Isa kang anghel
Ang kagalingan mo'y 'di maisusulat sa papel
Ang achievements mo'y mas mataas pa sa tower ng Babel

Czar, Czar
Talo pa si Marimar
Sa cleanliness OC pero 'di nakakaasar
Sa tambayan siya ay tunay na star

Lia, Lia
Ika'y kaayaaya
Pwede bang sa finance,
Makahingi ng pera?

Mikoy, Mikoy
Mahilig ka ba sa tikoy?
Alam naming ayaw mo sa boy
Dahil pagmamahal kay Katz patuloy

Michelle, Michelle
Pearly shell
Sa academics walang hell
Dahil lagi kang nageexcel

Cherish, Cherish
Ika'y talagang rich
Sa pagtupad ng mga wish
Ang ngiti ng mga bata'y whitish

Lucy, Lucy
Nakatira ka ba sa QC?
Sa galing sumulat ng news-y
Kami'y napapakanta ng Clumsy

Karen, Karen
Kutis mo'y parang lampin
Sa pakikitungo sa amin
Katauhan mo'y perfect ten

Minay, Minay
Gusto mo ba ng monay
Ngiti mong puno ng kulay
Ika'y talagang nakakamatay at mahal naming tunay

Raymond, Raymond
Mata'y parang almond
Kahit kailan kami'y susunod
Dahil kami'y sa iyong lingkod

Ace, Ace
Ika'y nakaka-amaze
Panalo sa lahat ng race ang iyong face
Mahal ka namin, always

then we had the oh so mushy, seniors' send-off. the seniors made an avp of their messages, sang a song "closing time", and said their final messages. seeing kuya enteng cry, triggered my tears to fall down as well. we will surely miss you all. we new mems promise to love ecosoc as much as you all did. good luck on your after-college life.

at the end, we said our good byes and gave hugs to all the people that we will miss.

as usual, i went home with kim and we had our usual cab conversations. i brought home kim first then headed to my own home. then suddenly, the crazy cab driver asked me if i could just get another cab coz he said he doesn't know the ways in tandang sora well. goodness gracious, it was 11pm and the roads were all dark! he had a pity left for me and i arrived home safely. whew!



it has been 6 days. oh i really miss ecosoc. awww.

ad hoc event

this is the event that i've been rooting for ever since i joined ecosoc. and yesterday, it finally took place! i was so excited for FLARE: The Summer Trigger, i even had my hair cut! wahaha. so let me tell you how my first ad hoc event was.


i'm an intern for ad hoc so i got the chance to help out in this event. together with joy and rox, i was assigned to assist the models for the fashion show. and so, we went to the "backstage" to do our jobs as PAs of the models. Bessy [i don't know if i spelled it right], the chubby gay fashion show handler, instructed us to familiarize ourselves with the models names. it was our duty to signal the models for their turns. it was quite hard memorizing names and faces for a short time, so we decided to divide the task. then suddenly, bessy pulled me and joy to be the floor directors. [just a quick story, when bessy pulled me, he said to me"oh btw, i love your dress." wahaha. thanks for the compliment!]. as floor directors we were asked to stick on the floor some x-marks where the models would, in fashion show terms, establish. ahaha.we were also asked to clear the catwalk and control the crowd. this wasn't easy as well coz there were so many people and the place was quite small. i know some people, especially the photographers were getting pissed at me because i was asking them to move away from the marks. ahaha. the fashion show went good and then it's party time!


i really partied hard and got wild on the dance floor last night. but would you believe that it's my first time to go party at a bar? it's also my first time to drink alcoholic beverages. well, not really drink coz i just took a sip. i was sane all the time i was dancing but i don't look sane. gets? the dance floor was too crowded, i was sweating like hell, but i just can't stop partying. i love it! ahaha. after a few hours of non-stop dancing, we finally decided to go out and breathe in some fresh air. then it became our routine to go back in and party and go out and have some fresh air again. we left absinth around 1:30am.


while waiting for my mom to fetch us, kim and i, along with pen and jo, had coffee in Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. then there was this lady in front of us who ordered a latte. she didn't pronounced it right, and me and kim, being the mean bitch girls that we are, started laughing at the poor lady's mistake. ahaha. well, i think she didn't notice that we were giggling because of her. and so my mom arrived and we left greenbelt. we brought home pen first, then kim, then me, of course. i arrived at home around 3am. i felt the power of the coffee taking effect on me so i wasn't able to sleep until 5am. those 2 hours i just studied for my acctg1 exam.


i just had my acctg1 exam a few hours ago and i hope i get good grades. good thing, the party didn't shake everything i studied. ahaha.


oh well, i really had super duper fun! good thing i decided to go to the ad hoc event though i have exams the following day. ahaha. to all the people i danced with, you know who you are! let's party again some other time, ok ok? and to the whole ad hoc committee, congratulations! flare was big hit! it was really nice working with you all.<3

patapon

the best word that describes this sem.


i have never felt this way about my studies. i have 8 subjects during the start of this sem. then i dropped pe2 scl late january, leaving me with art stud 1, mps10, acctg1, pe2 tmb, econ 102, econ 101. and guess what's the only subject that i feel i will be able to get 1? my pe2 tmb! waaah. my mps10 and art stud1 are ok but my econ101, econ102, and most especially acctg1 are not. just thinking about getting a 3 from any of these subjects pains me. what more if i get a 5? i will die. i have never failed a subject in my entire life and i don't want to. i shall be contented if i get a 3. oh well, it's my fault anyway. i wasn't able to concentrate much on my studies. but i think i still have the time to pull everything up.


this sunday, we'll be having our 3rd exam in acctg1. i've been reviewing for a couple of days so i better get a high grade there. on wednesday, assuming that i won't be exempted (which is most likely), i'll be taking my 3rd exam on econ102. for the finals week, i'll have exams on econ101 and another on acctg1.


i've finally decided to spend the remaining days of the holy week in our rest house in batangas and do my studying for my final exams there. meaning, i will be gone on the internet world for a few days. no multiply, no ym. i hope i can take it. i can't wait to see the beach. may the sea breeze bring back my passion for studying.


i'm still hoping for a CS standing. waaah.
