It’s exams week. For some reason I feel like there is less stress now compared to that of last quarter. The first day of exams was a bombshell. It started of with a combination punch from trigonometry and geometry. I think I’m not going to get knocked out though. I suppose the class needed more time to finish the exams since we got a different Ms. Arboleda this morning. She implemented “no cheating” with an iron fist. She arranged us into our seating arrangement which took a lot of our precious time. If math was the test then time would definitely be gold. We can’t waste it just for the sake of arranging our seats. It was weird because Ms. Arboleda was diverse from what we are accustomed to. Last week was our final regular classes. I can’t find time to update this blog because all our projects were due that week. It seems great that I’ve cleared everything all up except for the A.P. write up. Anyway, it could wait. I lost my chemistry notebook and finding it was a tedious task! Submission was so supposed to be last Friday. I just found it yesterday. I hope she still accepts it. Something was really weird last week. Everyone suddenly asked for my help with their debate project. I was surprised to know that they are asking for my help. I really didn’t expect that. I know it’s a good sign but it’s a tough job but someone’s got to do it. I just hate the fact that I will repeat what I said over and over because everyday the debaters scheduled for tom. will always go to me and ask for help. In fact, both the affirmative and negative side asked for my help. Now that’s weird. Blogging has its perks indeed. I got so used to writing all my feelings in this blog that it was not difficult for me to do the same thing in my formal theme writing in English. I am so glad that I got good comments from Ms. Umipig for my essay about life. It was quite rewarding because she is hard to please. I wasn’t expecting a grade higher than 90. I was so shocked to get a 98. Let’s talk about the dark side of this week. My scientific calculator was stolen last Monday. It was such a burden because that week was crucial because I had to learn everything for the upcoming exam and the dreaded chapter quiz. What’s annoying is that it’s my second calculator. I wish that bad luck would infest the pathetic soul of the prick who stole my calculator for all eternity. I’ve noticed that I haven’t been seeing the seniors lately. It’s quite gloomy to know that I won’t be seeing them next year. I had close ties with this batch than any other batch in school. I could definitely feel the power shift from the seniors to this batch. The turning over of the key of responsibility, the CBS election, the turn over of the tanglaw ,debate and the CAT officers gave me the sense that being a senior really meant more responsibility. The school year ended so fast. I couldn’t believe it that we just ended all of our classes yesterday. Ms. Arboleda thanked us for travelling the magical world of chemistry. I could still remember my first chemistry class where she welcomed us to the magical world of Chemistry and yesterday we were bidding goodbye to that world. We were also asked to vacate our lockers y. It’s quite an awkward feeling leaving SFX. It seems that it was only yesterday when that locker was assigned to me and now I’m taking all my stuff out. It’s a bitter sweet feeling. It’s nice to know that the school year is over but it’s heart-rending to leave all the friendships I’ve built. This section was the best there was. There is always going to be a special place for SFX in my heart. All the triumphs and hard ships that we came across would always be remembered. These people became more than just classmates and friends. They are more of a family to me. There was even a time that we even spent more time in school than at home because of the practice for the sayawit, choral elocution and the cultural dance. It was all worth it. SFX is worth all the sweat and hard work. This class has proven a lot and it makes me want to smile and shout that I’m part of that section. It has molded me in so many ways than one. Those 200 plus days I’ve spent with this class was more than I could ever imagine. I’ve grown so much. In that short span of time I’ve learned a lot not only about my subjects but to lessons in life as well. SFX would always be family and nothing could ever replace that.
