wooow.. come to think of it, i'm actually surprised that this thing is still alive! it's been sooo long! hehe. anyways.. obviously I have changed since my last post. I'm an incoming senior already!! shheesh, one more year and that's it??!! high school's done?!!? woah, that's fast... boy will I miss my batch mates. speaking of which, i really really wish our sections will still be blocked this school year!! it's sooo hard to have a new set of classmates again.. and besides, i'm already happy and contented with my class. (11) tsk, tsk.. it's not even our fault that our oh-so-excellent school accommodates too many students.. to the point that students are already sitting on the gym floor during recess and lunch time. (yeah, i know, so much for "luxury"..)
anyway, on to other things.....
last night our coach called me up and he was asking if i'm free for today.. he said that I and two of my other teammates need to meet up with him.. knowing coach, I know that this is something very important and urgent.. coach even said that we should come with socks and shoes on.. (this kind of scared me a bit because I don't want to train yet.. I mean c'mon, it's a Saturday! one of the three days that we can actually rest from our tedious trainings!) so anyway.. we were asking coach Paul what's up with the whole shoes and socks thing.. and do you know what he said? "We're going bowling." I was like, "that was the reason why you brought us here??" haha. I mean, puhleeeze.. I really thought that it's like this important discussion about the team and all that. oh yeah, but we actually did have that discussion.. we held our "meeting" at starbucks in eastwood.. then we went bowling after that. actually, it was fun.. it was fun seeing the ball I just lofted(which I realized after seeing the sign that it wasn't allowed) roll down the gutter.. hehe. heck, i should be called the Gutter Queen! haha. the main point is, I suck at bowling. BIG time. maybe i ought to just watch the others when we're going bowling next time. hehehe.
wow, blogging can be kind of fun! hehe. not only do I get to express my thoughts (without actually telling it to a certain person) but I also get to practice my english and typing skills! (although I can't say that I'm making much of an improvement.. with both aspects, i mean.) and since I'm already getting the hang of this, i'll type more!! hahahaha..
How hard it is to keep a secret?? because honestly, it's not an easy feat for me.. what, with my big mouth and all that.. It's really hard to keep my mouth shut. especially when it's a juicy story that's waiting to escape the depths of my itching-to-tell lips.. haha. good thing that i've learned how to keep my mouth shut already. recently, i've learned the lesson that when there's a person that you told a sort of confidential story to, when he/she spills it, it's not only his/her fault but also yours. I mean, if you didn't want the story to fall on unworthy ears, then you shouldn't have risked it by telling it to someone else too. Really, it's just one big action-consequence thing.. too bad I learned that the hard way.. haaaay..
"With great power, comes great responsibility.." wow, what a statement. If hearing that statement is a raindrop, then i'm probably swimming around here right now.. haha. oops, exaggerating.=p but I didn't know that this statement could actually apply to me. Me, the ever so slacker and sloth expert who flinches upon the word responsibility and work. I mean, i've already set my mind that being a follower is what I was born to do. Being a leader is not exactly my cup of tea. I didn't expect that this big of a responsibility could be passed on to me. Don't get me wrong, i loooooooove basketball. but this whole leadership because of this seniority thing isn't really working for me. I guess I'm just used to having the upper batch being our role models and stuff.. but now, there's nothing more to admire and look up to because the upper batch graduated already. (we'll miss you guys.. ='(( ) it's really hard to defend a title and now, it's even harder to do it with the seniors gone. not to mention the problem with our captain ball because there's a big chance that she won't be with us during the WNCAA league. =( i mean, how can a team possibly win without it's best scorer and leader?? yeah, i know, perseverance, faith, believe in yourself, etc. those things are easier said than done. so basically, we have to work really really hard. and our coaches expect us to be the ones who's going to guide the team since we are the seniors. boy, do we need LUCK. especially me, by the way. can't I just go back to the days when things are a LOT easier??
and with that question do I end this post. haha.

?
ang taong makalat mukhang peklat...
haha, nakita ko yan sa UP gym habang kasama yung team nung.. wednesday ata un.. sobrang, ang weird ng mga signs dun.. pero in fairness, effective din yung sign na yun kasi parang sila, "peklat! peklat!" pag may teammate kami na nagkakalat.. haha.. lalng..
anyway.. we had a game against San Beda earlier this afternoon.. and we lost.. argh.. that was soooo disappointing.. we really want to beat La Salle but because we lost to San Beda, that won't happen anymore... yeah sure we'll have another chance next year but we want to beat that exact team because their star players are in their senior year already.. ugh.. mhen.. why did the game have to end that way.... we were behind them for almost 3 quarters and their lead even got to 12 points.. finally we caught up with them during the fourth quarter and we got our lead although it wasn't that big.. like, it was just 2 to 3 points.. (but still.. hehe..) and then came the final minutes of the game.. exchange of shots was made by both teams so it was really nervewrecking.. It was a close fight.. I even noticed most of the crowd were on their feet by that time.. San Beda was down by three points during the final seconds of that quarter.. their star player got her hands on the ball and when she was behind the three point line, she threw it.... It was a good shot and because of that, the game went overtime.. then we lost after that... by two points.. argh! I'm beginning to despise that number already.. when we lost against La Salle during the wncaa league, it was also by two points! two! dalawa! dos! argh.. oh well.. life's like that....
anyway... after the game, I asked betang and her mom if I can ride with them going home since their house is near to mine.. and they agreed.. while outside the gym, betang was persuading her mom if she can go with sarah, mayet and pat to G4 to watch a movie.. I was just quietly waiting for them when suddenly, sarah or betang's mom suggested that I should go with them to G4.. I was surprised because i'm not even supposed to be included.. but then I finally went with them because I was shy to go with betang's family because it looked like they were planning to go somewhere too.. I was also not that eager to go home and since it was not a good day for me, I think it would be better if I will just try to relax and watch a movie.. so there.. as pathetic as I was, I went with them.. we watched the movie "prime".. it was a nice movie.. imagine, the woman was like 37 yrs old and his lover was on his 23rd year here on earth.. the gap is just... huge... imagine a younger brother for a lover.. haha.. sick.. and then the guy's mother happens to be the woman's therapist.. so the woman says all these intimate details like sex and all that stuff to her supposed to be "mother-in-law" without actually knowing it.. haha.. it was funny.. but it's kind of sad too.. some say age doesn't matter.. well I guess it does for these two characters.. who didn't end up in each other's arms after everything that happened between them.. tsk tsk..
some things just don't end up the way we want it to....

boredom..
okay.. i know.. the title is just plain.. boring.. but it's kind of connected to what I'm feeling right now so I might as well use it.. hehe.. anyway..
First of all, I WANT TO THANK ISH FOR MAKING THIS BLOG.. she even told me to post something in this blog so that it won't rot or whatever.. actually it's already "rotten" because I haven't used it until now.. haha.. soree ish.. so I guess I'll do what Ish said since this will somehow show my appreciation for what she has done for me.. THANKS ISH.. goodluck with your ballet.. take a rest once in a while though.. =)
I just finished watching this show in abs-cbn.. and there's this man there who reminds me of David Blaine.. his name is Erik Mana.. of course, he also does stuff that street magicians do.. but I was cynical to the stunts he did on tv.. I mean, I still believe that there's a scientific explanation to those magic tricks that he did.. although I admit that some tricks were really cool that it actually made me utter a "woah!" out loud.. but what really frustrates me is that stunt he did connected with a video tape.. It frustrates me because up until now I'm still thinking if I should sleep all alone in my room tonight.. haha.. I really fell for that trick because it scared me.. (ugh.. pathetic Freesia..) oh well.. guess I'll just sleep in my parents' room for tonight..=p
*sighs* what a week.. I was bombarded with schoolworks to cram, longtests that I failed in and that persuasive speech that I had no time to prepare for.. not to mention the report card!! argh! my grades went down during the second quarter.. ='( I guess that's what I get for sleeping during class hours.. oh well.. I just don't learn, don't I.. hay.... anyway.. I did my persuasive speech earlier this afternoon.. I wasn't even prepared yet when it was time for me to deliver my speech.. but I guess I'm more lucky than those who presented during the first day of speech.. I think they only had 2 days to formulate something.. tsk, tsk.. anyway, there I was.. trying to calm myself down because my hands are trembling and they're so cold.. I was approaching the podium and I was even frustrated because I thought that it will only complicate things for me.. but you know what? it didn't.. the moment I reached the podium and was able to rest my hands on it, poof! the nervousness vanished! it was really surprising and what's funny is that I got carried away with my speech.. up to the extent that I was banging my hands on the podium.. haha.. I guess I was really trying to convince the listeners to support death pealty.. but the experience was fun.. the next time I deliver a speech, i'll see to it that I will be using a podium..=)
anyway.. I'm already sleepy and we still have a game tomorrow (or more like later..) so it's better if I rest now...
(me it hurt... today read something... and) (on move..)
