I had the nerds to make everything otherwise.

February 17, 2008

i was very surprised that the school’s College Days went by without anything much happening besides the much anticipated Field Demo, Augustinian Jubilation 2008; Nature in Motion. props to Sr. Regmalos for thinking of the title. i find it very "creative". hahahaha. despite the dullness of the supposedly “fun” fair, thank God, i had the nerds around to make everything otherwise.   

February 15 ( first day of the fair )

i expected that there will be more. i would soon find out that all those aspirations of eating yummy food, and getting pumped up with all the buzz around the school, would all crumble into a big, fat pile of dullness.

Ate Thea immediately yanked me away to tell me that the Chorale was singing in the Opening of the Fair. yet again, i was in the dark room; i didn’t know whats the hell i was doing. good thing that i was a bit familiar with songs. the opening started with the Dance Troupe and the Boosters dancing their contest things. i was scared for them since they were asked to perform on stage; their performances would have to involve stunts and thus a huge chance of them falling off. good thing that no one did. hahahaha. 

after that whole thing, i basically spent the day with 2B. we watched the whole freakin’ Variety Show. loyal fans? oh yes. hahahaha. we watched a bunch of interbatch games. we ate a ton of useless food. i stomach was aching because of all the cheese and salt i took in. never again! hahahaha.

we spent most of our time in the field because the weather suits our liking. they played clue and i stared into the sky. hahahaha. i was bored out of my mind that after getting my attendance checked, i caught the first strip and went home. 

February 16 ( a freakin’ saturday which we actually needed to go to school )

it was a crazy morning for me. i was frantic because i forgot to tell the maid, the night before, that i had school today. i was scared to hell that i was gonna miss the bus. after 30 minutes of waiting, i got a bit worried that all the running around the house was for nothing. hahaha. i texted Lance to check with the bus people. luckily, i got them to pick me up.

when we arrived at school, literally nobody was there except for some early birds. we went to the grandstand to kill some time. time flew by quite slow. we just sat there listening to good music and planning for today’s events. after what seemed ages of waiting, we got up and went to our booth to have our attendance checked. 

me, Trixie, Kat, and Mikh stayed in our booth to finish our shifts while the others got some breakfast. it was very early in the morning so no one was in the mood for playing some video games. but there was this one kid who stayed up to an hour just playing with our PSP. i just sat there, staring blankly intso space, and tried not dying of boredom. so we finished our shifts, i got some breakfast, and caught up with 2B. 

we stayed near the HSSC Booth while eating some disgustingly yummy buttered popcorn, cheering on the Sophomore basketball team and witnessed them cream the Freshies in their interbatch match. after a while, all Sophomore students were called in and have our batch hour. 

it was obvious that the other sections wasn’t really in the mood, except for Lance anyways. hahahaha. our cheer was very lively and different from the other sections. we were the only ones who adopted to the theme. i had a great time playing the game with the hula hoops. hahahaha.

after freshening up, some of the nerds and i went ahead and lined up for inflatables. we sat there for hours, thinking that we would enjoy the thing after the little kids were finished with their turn. to my disbelief, we had to wait for another hour so the people there could fix “holes”; the guy refused to let us in. we decided to wait for more and convince to guy. but, he just didn’t budge. after laying there for a bajillion years, we decided to just leave, take our money back, and return later.

we went to get some lunch. once again, i was dissatisfied with the food. i wanted rice and all i got was a measly shawarma which by the way wasn’t that good as everybody kept saying. after eating, we went to the gym to meet up with Mrs. G.

i got a bit surprised that some of them were already in their “costumes”. hahahahaha.

after we got some snacks(once again?! hahaha) we went up to the Cafetorium to find some good seats. good thing that a couple of people were kind enough to let us sit with them, considering that we were like 15 in the group.

we decided to give the inflatables one more try. at least this time, we actually got in. it was hard trying to catch your breath since you were laughing your *ss off most of the time. hahahahaha. 

we practically wrecked the whole thing. hahahaha.

after a quick rest, went down for the last checking. we got snacks then headed for our seats to watch the show.

it was fun cheering the 2B people who were a part of the dance. i could imagine how embarrassed they were when we were screaming there names from the Cafetorium. hahaha. it was shorter than i expected it to be. the little kids were so cute in those animal costumes. it must have been hell for them wearing it.

long sleeves and masks.

good thing they didn’t ask the HS students to wear anything like that. i could only imagine. haha.

it only took the whole program to finish in an hour.

after the whole thing, we were all expecting that someone would announce that they would cancel classes on Monday. WRONG! nobody did, do it means it’s back to reality again.

i hurts me to think of all the things we have next week.

 

Good luck to everyone.

a stressful week our way comes.

 

sh*t.
