Pink Day

Thursday, October 6, 2005

Pink Day.

My day started out fine. I had breakfast then watched Hamtaro. After that, we watched a couple of DVDs before going to school. I wore a fuchsia red top with a light pink sweater (the one with a dragonfly design on it) and pink (dragonfly felt) shoes. I confidently carried my Whimsy laptop carrying bag, (The one with the pink dog on it.) and strutted my kick ass jeans. I got really excited to present the case as I went to and fro the hallways carrying my cue card and reciting my lines. And then.

This hot (Take Note: HOT) guy, whom I believe to be a freshman kept staring at me! Okay so I was passing along the photocopying machine. And when our eyes met, it was glued to each other for like as long as we lost sight of each other. That really, really turned me on. I couldn’t help but smile after that.

Moving on, when our case defense started it was already half past four. And when we got to our seats (the only seat left for us were the front ones!) our professor decided that the presentation start from the back. (To which technically meant that we were the last ones to present.)

On our turn, I was picked to present the case, and well, gallingly my group mates shouted with glee. Of course, the pressure of representing the group was lifted from them. For a while there, it really made me pink. Probably out of surprise, slight irritation, tension and excitement. My hands were so cold and I was almost stuttering and I mispronounced help for “helf”. It was so embarrassing and jittery at the same time.

The class was finished by past 6. We, Lea, Ate Pikka and I dined out to have a mini celebration from our case. It was sort of served as a bonding moment for us. We talked about the case study and our views on homosexual relationships!

It was a fun day for me. Although not that fulfilling, I closed my eyes thinking of happy thoughts that happened that day.

Fidgety Exam Period

Wednesday, October 5, 2005

My exam went just fine. The Communications 3 exam seemed average to me. I was capable of answering the Dyadic because it was the part that I really mastered to memorize. I had some problems remembering guidelines included in Public Comm though.

And after having lunch with friends, I had my Econ11 exam. And guess what? For the first time, I got all jumpy and shaky inside! I got nervous because I haven’t reviewed anything! It was such a weird feeling for me because I don’t really get cold sweat before an exam.

It was such a relief that the finals exam was so easy. My professor used the questions from our recent exams. Yey! ^_^ I was so happy.

On the contrary, our plan to finish the paper in our 101 case study didn’t really happen. We agreed to do the paper last Tuesday. While two of us are taking the exam, they’d be discussing about the changes to be done in the paper. But when I got to our meeting place, they haven’t done a thing! My Gawd. (Do I have to do everything here?) And since we’re just wasting our time, idly talking about nothing, and being unproductive, Lea and I decided to just go and buy some stuff at the nearest Supermarket.

We bought this.- to which I don’t know what its called. It grows grass on it. Isn’t it cute? Hehe.

Last Day

Saturday, October 1, 2005

Today was the last day of the semester. It started out like an old romantic movie spiced up with action and ended up like soap opera.

The night before, I watched the movie The Classic. It was a very nice movie. It made me laugh and cry, it made me fall in love again then broke my heart at the same time. Most of all, it made me feel good about me. I kept on telling myself that I deserved this movie after all the things I did this week.

Last Thursday we crammed our way to finish our first case study. And I couldn’t believe how it made me so weary. They say that being in UP is not only being a student, it’s a lifestyle. I guess its getting into me already.

And the days preceding this week are all compiled in a big box, ready to be kept away.

Today, I woke up at 8:30 and (without brushing my teeth nor rinsing my face!) immediately grabbed the book, Eleven Minutes by Paolo Coelho. As I was reading, I was also listening to some music, particularly The Fray, a new band I recently heard in MTV. It had been a wonderful morning. And I wished it never to end.

But I finished the book by noon and soon got up to attend to my last class for the semester.

This is the last day for an old beginning and a new end… of my life, my story.
