A Way to Start the Summer

I'm finally done getting my clearance signed. I'm a second year student already!

Meep. my weirdness is coming back, after long days of idleness. Is it a good thing?


Now, I'm really on a break. I started my summer vacation by cleaning out my room of the things that stress me out and rearranging it so everything feels refreshed.

This involves:

• dumping other peoples stuff that accumulated in my room in their respective places (their rooms, in the trash)
  
• shredding unwanted documents (diary entries that make no sense or are too angsty, failing Math homeworks and quizzes, uninteresting handouts, scrap drawings)
  
• getting my jackets ready for the summer! La Nina is here. This is my favorite kind of weather.
  

I've already done these stuff and the room is still a mess. I could have continued if I hadn't turned on the computer.

Oh, yeah. I've started a Johari and Nohari window. Just thinking I could learn more about myself from them. Check the sidebar.

To Batch 2009, see you at card giving day. :)

Congratulations to the graduating batch at school, whose commencement exercises are today.

To everybody else, enjoy the weather.

3-Day Trip

I went to my parents' hometown with them and the rest of the family. We stayed there for three days to settle some things with our relatives tenants, or something like that. I didn't really understand that part. Glad it was somehow solved.

On the way there, I noticed a lot of changes in the province. It's a lot more commercialized than before, the beach is cleaner and of course the people grew older. Very different from when I last went there around 3 years ago.

After a few visits to our cousins house, lots of trips to the beach, sleepless nights and countless cuts from old and rusted objects, I still think that I'm better suited in the city. I just got used to the convenience and stress you get living here. I still like going there to break tedious routines.

I'm tired. I couldn't sleep in that house, for a certain reason.


Signing off.

Yesterday's batch trip to Enchanted Kingdom was great. It was my first time to go there, and it was better than I expected. I enjoyed the Space Shuttle most. Scary when the carts are going up slowly, but the rest of the ride was fun. You can't avoid screaming as it goes down the steep part because the force will kill you if you don't. Hope we can go again.

I also lost my cellphone twice that day. It was just clipped to a neck strap on both times. The first time was when I got off the bus after the trip. Good thing a busmate found it and forwarded it to someone to give to me. Second time I noticed it was gone was when I reached home. I found it on the living room floor. When Mom came home, she told me that I should just chain it on my neck so it won't get lost. I learned that it's more likely to get lost on my neck.

I still have to go to school next week to return my books (the line to the Property Office was a few miles long for the past week) and to complete my clearance.

Right now I'm supposed to review my sisters for their exams on Monday. Hard task. I have to pay attention to their Filipino, mostly. I'm also looking after my brother. It's harder tame him than helping the other two study.

I'm uninspired again. I was unmotivated to do the last Art plate, even though I like drawing portraits and fantasy art. I can't think of a good layout for this blog, content for the other site, draw something, and even a title for this post. Can't take the idleness anymore.

Give Gray shawarma on an uninspired day = :D = One happy kid Done!

I guess that's all for now. Signing off.

Relief Valve

What does a relief valve look like in a schematic drawing? The Tech Prep long test was harder than some of the other quarterly tests. Math is still the hardest.


The academic year is done.

Because of that, I'm not really thinking of what I'll do at school, except for our self-portrait project in Art and the Val Ed. film. Another thing is about my lost locker key. How am I going to be cleared by the Property office if I can't open it? I really have to find it.

We ate out yesterday with my family at a Japanese restaurant. I had my fill of sashimi after a long time. It's great to go on an outing without thinking of stuff to do for school afterwards. I miss that feeling.

I've already thought of stuff to do during the summer vacation. I'm taking swimming lessons so I won't have a hard time in P.E. like I did this year. I also accepted the advanced math classes offer that I got from the review center I used to go to for the high school entrance tests. Hopefully I'll be able to save money this week for stuff like art materials or video games for the rest of the summer. Expect that I will update Neo Wings, or you may lynch me.

And that's about it for now. Signing off.
