GENESIS (FIRSTS)
- 1st day of classes - can't remember much, but i do remember that it was freaking cold and i was sick the day before so i felt awful. haha. got my 1st reprimand of the year for wearing the hood of the jacket. haha... malay ko bang bawal na pala? of course, we met ms. g, our new adviser for the year
- 1st research - syempre sa research nagcmula e. haha. sir manaay was so freaking intimidating. we were all palpitating in our seats. we were asked to what our favorite tv show was and someone tallied it. the 1st sentence of my answer was wrong grammar due to my nervousness. haha... kkhiya grabe. basta, the experience was definitely nerve-wracking. "marshmallow test, emotional quotient..." haha. how could i forget?
- 1st english - still trembling.... we were given poem or something to interpret. and for the 1st time, i was asked to answer a question (against my will, of course). what the irony was in the poem was the question... haha. i gave my answer, but until now, i'm not sure if it was right. pedagogic with blanks was given right after. my gush. hahaha. nkkinis kaya un! nagppgawa ng ppt d pla kelngan. hmph.
- 1st filipino (also 1st subject of the year) - haha. mrs suplente was her old self again, of course. puro kwento. at jokes. haha. we were given our 1st homework which was to bring black clearbook. hahaha.
- 1st bio - hmmm... we met mrs hongo, that's all i remember. haha. never expected she would be so fun. oh yeah! she asked us to draw a symbol of who we are as students i think. basta. i remember drawing a weighing scale with a smiley on the left and a book on the right. haha.
- 1st social - muhahaha. sir blanca asked us how social was last year. The 1A peeps in the class gave "she-who-was-born-in-pangaea" a really bad review. i remember saying how hekasi used to be my fave subject in grade school. and how i expected it to still be my favorite until my dreams were shattered in first year. hahaha. loved that 1st meeting. sir blanca definitely lived up to my expectations - and more.
- 1st math - ugh... the start of my despair. i couldn't understand the 1st lesson because it was so... weird. it was the thing that had fractions. ah bsta. struggle tlga. sa MPR pa iyon. haha. grr.
- 1st CLE - this i definitely do not remember. not even one tiny detail. i wonder why. first day palang kasi, (BnB) buhay na bangkay strikes already!
- 1st quiz - bio quiz with mrs, hongo. haha. it was okay. everyone got either a perfect score or one mistake. a question i remember... hmmm.. what do you use to measure the height of a tree. haha. meter stick ung sagot. weird noh?
- 1st failed quiz - it was unexpectedly... bio. i always thought it would be math. i got 15/30. wahahaha... i was only able to answer 2 in the labeling of the diagram of the parts of the cell... from a 98 in the report card to this. T_T i suck at labeling. and i hate cells. period. haha. damn you plant cell! (p.s. plant cell, alipin ka lang ng animal cell. muhaha. die!!!)
- 1st "pinahiya/pinagalitan ako ng teacher sa class moment" - it was in filipino when i made a quick glance at the clock for no reason. it was really more of a habit than a desire/need to do so. i was even wearing a watch. ugh. it got me really frustraited. besides, what use is the clock if you're not allowed to look at it. they might as well remove it if students would be reprimanded for lookng at it. yuck, haha nagdradrama na pala ako.
- 1st love - asa. haha... labo noh?
PRESENTATIONS/CLASS PROJECTS/ FUNNY OR MEMORABLE MOMENTS INSIDE THE CLASSROOM
ENGLISH
- the first one was the REALLY weird one. the one where you had to "advertise" the different kinds of literature. i really couldn't understand that. as expected, due to the very blurry instructions, we all came up with totally different presentations depending on how we understood it. haha... one group took it literally and did a commercial. the others like tried to sell books. haha. one group even had scientists of some sort promoting planets named after the works of literature.
- the second one was kind of okay. at least the intructions were uhm... clear enough . haha. we had to promote the new 7 wonders of the world. our group got the great wall i think. i remember laughing at the maccu picchu i think. or not. bsta ung may nagsasaudi arabian accent. haha.
- what other presentations were there? hmm... ah, of course! haha... the really embarrassing one. where i had to play spidey's fan. haha... halos impromptu lang un e. tae! haha... kinarir ba masyado? nttndaan ko p lines ko. muhahaha... Q: "What part of his body is your favorite?" A: "Well, you rarely see any part of his body since he's always wearing that costume. But, OMG, do you remember his lips in that kissing scene when he was upside down and took off his mask?! Gosh!" haha... ^_^
- the Christmas jingle presentations - haha.... syempre ung pnakamemorable dun : (tune : jingle bells) Tao Te Ching! Tao Te Ching! Written by Lao Tzu! Go with the flow like the river yo! haha... thank God for good music (haha. sarcasm or not?). hmm.. for my group, my favorite was Kirsten as Slutty Santa... haha... this was embarassing for me too. i had to be rudolph and wear antlers and a red nose. haha.
- extemporaneouss speaking - LOL... this made me really nervous.... ano b ung mga nkktawang sagot? wla na ako mtndaan e. bsta the question i got was something related to humility or something. hay. ang labo ko nmn. kung wla rin akong mttndaan sna d ko na blinog. haha.
- newscasting - haha! grbe tlga! we had no practice whatsoever for this. haha.. uhm, what i remember is... ung may mga potential maging magaling na newscaster accdg to sir... i think it was jo, kim, and earl... haha... funny pla ung kay kim! ung traffic report. haha, nung una d ko gets ung diagram na may mga dots..... haha, what else... ung news ni eric! haha, ung brutal. ung may nasagasaan sa parade ata na bata... and the way he delivered it. parang excited pa. haha. bsta tawa ako ng tawa d2.
- readers' theater - hay tae tlga i2! nkkstress i2ng buisit na i2! haha. first of all, what readers' theater means wasn't explained to us. i didn't know what to do. should the readers move? should we have actions? should everyone read? how should everyone read? should the main readers be reading alone? should there be props, stage design...? kailangan bang karirin i2? i practically had to force everyone to practice, force everyone to create those folders (which btw was yet again another last minute addition), and force everyone to read. haha, hlta bang touchy ako d2? LOL. bsta. all i can say is. good luck na lang sa class president ng pilot class in the future. i swear, walang nakikinig. (lance can testify with great enthusiasm to this... haha)... pero okay lang... in the end, when everybody realizes na malapit na ung event, magprapractice na din and magtratrabaho na din as a class. tska napanood ko recently (haha) ung video n2 sa multiply ni gela. uhm, okay na din. mgnda ung effect nung folders. tsaka polished tignan. haha. of course, i seldom let my anger and frustration show... i guess that's who i really am. when practice time comes, i forget all of that and just enjoy. and laugh, of course. aerobics? to the left. ready set go! 12345678, 87654321.. haha.
- haha... hindi i2 presentation... nkktawa lang for my part.... haha... it was when we were reading The Bench one by one.... waaaaaaaa..... haha... ang dami kong mali... i really don't know why i pronounce "brow" as "bro" and not "brouw" initially.. haha.. i know that it's supposed to be "brouw" but everytime i see the word, i say "bro" waaaaa... tapos dun sa paragraph na binabasa ko, ang daming mhhirap na words. Bietjievsli, Annetjie etc.. (d na ako sure dun sa spelling niyan ah)... ewan ko ba... nkkasar tlga... haha.. pero ang saya... hahaha.
- syempre. who could forget? nosebleed debate sessions with sir manaay.... and the winner for the "pinadugo ko ang ilong ng 2B dahil ang lalim ng sinabi ko at wala silang naintindihan" award goes to Allan a.k.a. Hari Ng Mga Dinudugong Ilong a.k.a. Magpapakamatay Ako Para Sa 1 Point Sa Multiple Choice Sa Literature. HAHA... joke... syempre, idol natin lahat siya when it comes to nosebleed. muhaha... pinakamalalang debate? ung sequencing of events ng Gilgamesh... muhaha.. 1 period inabot... but very memorable... hahaha.
