As I've always said, time really flies fast. The more or less 2 months of vacation will finally come to an end. Still, I can say that this vacation is not just any other vacation because I've gain lots of somethings. It started when I volunteered to help in the Kiddie Summer workshop the last 2 weeks of April. I began to increase my patience with kids, 'cuz before, I must admit that I get pretty annoyed with them. haha. I was with ate Zairee, and met new people like Marice, ate karen, and many more (even the kids who just lives here!). I wake up at 7 am everyday and go back at lunchtime. Then ate zairee invited me to join catechism and be a catechist. Then one thing led to another. What I 'just expected' wasn't that. In less than a month I also became an ate, teacher and friend to the kids, a choir member, a reader and collector during mass, a dancer, and next, an actor (woah, just kidding!) I gained friends, commited myself fully to God, and learned lots of other stuff. I became tired even on weekends, stayed up late on nights (not just by watching tv!) hehe. Speaking of that, I didn't memorize all the shows not pigged out this summer.
And even though I exerted my energy, gave my half day everyday of May, at least I can say that, "This summer is like no other. It wasn't boring, it even was exciting!" hihi.
Moving forward... In less than 12 days I'll be back to Manila for school, living the next 10 months as a collegiala again. I just hope between those months I'll also be gaining stuff I gained during vacation, with hard work, time, and patience. Good luck to me! :)

I'm okay now. Kinda happy than before. lol. Yesterday, we went to Festival Mall for the sale. I almost got crazy! hehe I don't know where to go, 'cuz there were too many finds, yet I'm not giving in instantly. Naks, I'm getting rid of my impulsiveness when in comes to shopping, after all. Only thing is, we don't really have much time but I have the money naman! In the end I only bought what I needed (which I think is supposed to have happened, but I want more! haha)--a cute black school shoes at SUKI in sale, for only 700+, bootcut jeans at human (10% off, only 750), and a cute nautical bad from sari-sari (only for 100 bucks!). There. Only those stuff. I want to buy more pa nga (which I think, are still, necessities) but as I said, we haven't got much time. :( I rushed pa nga for choir practice at 2 pm eh (but we departed from the mall at half an hour past 2 already). Luckily, there is a matrimony celebration so the practice began at 3 already and even though not on time, I managed to practice a little. And my crush is there! tee hee soo embarrasing, I was wasted already...

After the Cathecism (which ended pretty early, at 5am), I asked Myleen, Len, Annalynd and Janine to play badminton. We've had a lot of laughs going to our house, and even up to going home. We ate homemade halo-halo (aminin nyo, enjoy lalo na yung hirap na dinanas nyo sa pag-halo nun! ehehe) and sopas (which I cooked this morning but still tastes ok pa naman, ryt? lol). Cold and hot nga eh, hihi kamusta naman yun! Then after that we proceeded to play at the kalye na (wow, watta term!) and I know I soooo stink at badminton but still, fun kahit na puro pulot ng bola. We paused nga lang for a while 'cuz the shuttle cock (spell check, lol) went up to the roof, caused by me! hihi we've done all that we could until Annalynd finally went up the roof to get it (thanks, girl!) Then I think we're not that in the mood na to play so we went to the playground. Played a little pa, in the swing, ladder bars, to the highest of the monkey bars where we stayed most, sharing childhood stories, laughing again, welcoming Janine to the group :)
Ahh, what a joy it is to be a kid again. Playing like no one'll get hurt, laughing with our hearts out, telling jokes and silly stories, and just by being carefree with your friends.
But then as a kid, fun also stops when dark starts to come and someone, just someone, might be worrying about you not going home.
Bottom line? My childhood's going to officially end soon too, in 81 days. Gosh!
But still, the memories won't be gone. They will always be in my heart.
naks! hihi :)

not my typical lazy day saturday.
Yes, it's not. Even though I woke up at 9 am already (late, a typical saturday ritual lol), I've done pretty much the rest of the day. Because after that, I practiced playing the piano for the church pieces (hard, I'm NOT that familiar with the chords!), I watched BECK for the first time (I feel funny upon hearing Yael dubbing his voice in an anime, kilig!), then I pampered myself like cleaned my nails, had a homestyle hot oil, took a bath then had a foot spa (here too! lol). After all of that I didn't have much time so we already went to the church for choir practice. We practiced the action song first for mothers' day tomorrow since wala pa yung magtuturo (take note, si OMG! haha), then he arrived at past 3. After a little getting-to-know each other, he then sorted us out (like the sorting hat? lol). I was nervous like hell and when it was my turn, I was kinda singing out of tune na nga! hehe but then lucky me, sa soprano-2 pa din napapunta :D
After that, he had to go na and the ates let us have some demonstration practice in playing the piano. Boy, I was nervous. I do NOT really memorize any of the piano pieces so I ended up playing different songs! 'Pag di ko na alam, lipat na. Sooooo embarrasing nga. ehehe I should've brought a piece talaga if I had known. tsk. Then after that we went home to eat a little then we went to the swimming pool already for night swimming! Me, ate yoya, myka, raquel and myleen. Nakakainis nga 'cuz the pool was reserved pala! We pleaded na lang until kuya was mabait enough to us, basta limited. huhu, then yun. We 'swam' (ahaha as if?!) then little by little the guests of the party was approaching. Myleen knows them nga eh. One of them is Carl, the #6 hottie from Zone 1's midgets. ehehe. But then when they were preparing for their food na, we decided to go kasi kakahiya nga. ayun, the so-called night swimming which lasted for about an hour. lol. well, at least we have fun having our pictures taken!
Sigh.. next time na lang ulit :)

I'm down by the dumps. I couldn't smile and laugh as I used to. *sigh*
Whatta Friday. :(

I'm having another 'yellow shoulder bag' moment. Or should I say moments? haha
No idea what a 'yellow shoulder bag' moment is? Well, go figure. I won't say it. haha I'm soooo crazy..
But I'm happy! :)
Cathecism is fine. I'm not that prepared na naman kanina 'cuz I really thought we weren't suppose to have lessons because of practice but it ended up that way again. I'm discussing, the kids are 'trying' really hard to listen. It's hard, I know, right? I hope it'll be better tomorrow and the instructions will be clearer. On who will really present and what we will present. And will it be on Mothers' Day only or on Friday too? Sheesh..
Btw, we watched the game again this evening- Zone 1 vs. Zone 3. Haha, we won again. Even though we missed half of the time for we thought the game'll be 8 pm! Annalynd. Tsk! hihi kantiyawan ka tuloy namin bukas. :P
And oh, Happy 2nd Anniversary nga pala to my BS mates! Miss you so! Let's reminisce what happened two years ago. lol
Well, that's pretty much about it. I'm tired. I'm off. Buh bye!

This day is another tiring day, but still A-okay. I (think) I'm doing good in Cathecism only that this day, 3 of my students cried. *Sigh* I don't know what is getting into them. They're turning into young ladies na, yet they're acting like that. It drives me nuts especially if I can't do something about the situation.
After the usual routine (teach, break, animation, prayer and offering) we have a little meeting again which I think lasted for sooooo long because both Marice and I are impatient to go home. And then tomorrow we'll have a meeting again in the afternoon, and alay at 4pm. Father is concerned na nga about it eh, because it's almost everyday that we meet after the cathecism and maybe our parents are getting worried na that we are finishing late. Just as I thought, he shares the same sentiments pala. lol anyway I hope that'll be solved na nga because I get really tired and exhausted :(
So after that "little meeting" we watched the game, first, the mosquitos (funny name!) but Zone 1 lost to a lot of points then the exciting game of the Midgets. Zone 1 vs. Zone 3. Some of them are hot, and Kevin keeps screaming for them nga haha even if at first, he doesn't want to cheer for zone 1. We won, and the other team didn't even have the chance na makalamang. hehe the smallest is 3 points but still, they didn't win. Woohoo!!
Btw.. I have had a new crush nga pala. but never mind, 'cuz he's gay haha.
so funny.

it's a miracle! haha I'm getting tired these days. Unlike the past summer vacations :D
Cathecism is tired ang exhausting, but worth it. It's fun! I like the kids :) I enjoy it naman. Hopefully it will be good pa rin after a few days. hehe wish me luck!
I read nga pala the Psalm kanina sa mass. It was fast kasi 3 lines lang naman, pero gosh, kinabahan pa rin ang lola nyo! first time ba naman, di pa alam ang gagawin. hihi tapos nabano pa 'ko sa microphone kanina, 50 seconds ata yung silence na iniintay nila kong magsalita na! haha the horror..
Irish slept-over for 2 nights. too bad di ko siya naasikaso much, though. so tired and busy na kasi eh. tsk tsk. bawi na lang next time. hehe
Having fun being active in Church. meeting new friends. kids! service (naks, totoo? haha!)
<b>It's all about the attitude, baby!</b>
