Alone...



I just realized how alone I really am throughout my life. I walked alone. Fought alone. It's exhausting. I'm just... Kidding! Hahahaha. No. I'm not here to whine and have a pity party. I'm just here to tell you guys that I'm sorry I haven't been in touch lately. I've been kinda secluded in front of the computer putting my creativity to use again. I know I've neglected this blog but so is some other stuff like my writing. Now, I'm busy with The Elites and Editing pictures for the Friendster Acccount of our clique. Add us if you want. Here's the url: www.friendster.com/ototacaiahsam. Add us okay? Another thing is I've been trying to get my body into shape. I think i'm losing tone. By the way, my parents are in Cebu. They are going to be there in a week. It's sort of like a vacation and my mother wants to visit her family and relatives there. It's been a while and it's supposed to be me with her but I have lots of things to do here so I pased. I already planned my activities but there's only one thing working against me. Rain. It's raining here. Even in the morning. I can't go out for a jog. I was thinking of a whole fitness week for me. Sort of like the CAT training minus the tests plus more exercise and less food. I'm thinking big breakfasts and balanced proportions of lunch and dinner and definitely lots of water. For workout, I'm thinking fifty push-ups, a hundred sit-ups, fifty crunches, and some lounges along with squats. Don't worry about it though. It's not that hard because this is carried throughout the whole day. Meaning, I could do 20 push-ups in the morning then the rest later. I will do more if I can. Got to be fit. Hopefully after the tiring week, i'll be pleased.



Answers!




Nope. I am not looking for some. Hehehe. Maybe I am but not now. I am currently channeling my urge to study... Don't react negatively! It's as if I never do it. I just missed studying I guess. Hahaha. So, as I was saying. I am currently channeling my urge to study in answering question in Yahoo! Answers. It's kinda cool. I get to share my opinions and ides to strangers. And maybe impress them? I already answered two math questions and a chemistry question. Seemed like high school really taught me some stuff, huh. Hehehe. It's just funny because in my Chemistry and Math class I used to ask my teacher directly how would these stuff help me. LOL. I know it's kind of disrespectful but I kind of have an open relationship with my teachers this past senior year. Hehehe. Yeah. I know I'm complaining but whatever. Back to the topic. I also answered lots of personal questions about high school and how to live through it. It was just fun.



Dawn of the Cockroach




Woah. I thought as I stood up from our bench in the foyer. It was the sight of cockroaches emerging from everywhere in the kitchen, a while after I turned off the lights, that made me stood up from my location. I was writing on the table nearby a TV by the door and I really felt goosebumps all over my skin. It's like an army of them, I thought. I freaked out a little, thinking that they might fly in my direction or something. Anyway, I managed to gather some courage and decided to fight back. I know! I make it sound like I'm fighting an monstrous creature.

My adrenaline was pumping, probably because of the coffee I had along with my dinner, plus the cheesedogs I just ate from BigMac along with a soda. I was really pumping. I let go of my pen and got my hands on one of my father's leather shoes. They became my primary weapon againts those cockroaches that to me, looked like zombies. Seriously. It was like Dawn of the Cockroaches. I feel like they're going to devour me in any second. I stood there, staring at our kitchen, taken over by the cockroaches, thinking what to do. I really felt like I was in a movie. I was a man outnumbered by an army of giant(hahaha) cockroaches.

A flashback occured in my head(this was true). It was the night before and I'm having a hard time trying to sleep when I heard these little sounds. Rustling. Crisp flapping of wings. I froze in my bed then immediately covered myself with my blanket. I felt secured then. Still, the sounds continued. I can't go on like this, I thought. And when I turned the flashlight in my cellphone on, I saw it. It was horrible. I spottedm three cockroaches in my room. One far from me and two a few inches above my head. I hurried to cover myself again. I eventually fell asleep. But still, that was scary.

Back to reality, I jumped in surprise as a cockroach flew quickly to my direction. I felt like running to my room, which I did, not to hide, but to check if there are cockroaches in it too. I was right as there were three of them again, crawling around. Despite my goosebumps, I managed to kill one with the leather shoes. The other two ran away in surprise, i think. Imanged to kill another. The other, however, got away. I breathe out heavily as I left the room and entered the kitchen once again. I couldn't count them. Besides counting them was the last thing on my mind because they're totally grossing me out. But I managed to estimate fifteen to twenty. Yeah. They're that many. I hurried to the light swith and turned it on. And then the blood bath began. I saw some of them fled due to the light. Some of them hid while some just ran around the floor crazily. I killed four when my father asked me what's going on. He's yelling from their room. I told him that I was just killing cockroaches. I made it sound like it was a hobby. He adviced me to use the cockroach repellant/killer.

Now, I really feel powerful with my magic(repellant) and my sword(shoes) in my hands. I sprayed to their hiding places. I thought it didn't work because nothing seem to happen but after a few seconds they came out, acting crazy like they just had drugs. They crawled around bumping to walls flying in low areas landing just to the floor again. I took advantage and managed to kill every cockroach that I could see. Bitches! I screamed with anger inside me, remembering the night before. Don't even invade my bedroom again! The battle ended. I saw one last cockroach, stuck in a lizard's tongue. I watched it struggle but soon the lizard dropped it and I squashed it with my father's shoe. That should teach them a lesson to never mess with me.



Two in One

I decided that I'm going to combine my two blogs. I'll merge my stories with this personal blog. So don't be surprised if I posted aome new stuff, okay?

Party, Party


As expected, there were lots of parties after graduation. That's why I refused to throw one myself because I know there would be many. The first one we attended was right after graduation. It was lunch time and Sandy invited us to Kamayan sa Palaisdaan. We went there right away, leaving some of our friends who had their own lunch with their families, like Robin, Virgi, Marian, Patrick and Micah. We arrived there by 11 am. Upon entering, we saw no signs of Sandy nor her family. I sen her a text message to confirm if we got the right location. She confirmed the location and asked us to go there by 12. The thing is, we're already there! Since Kamayan sa Palaisdaan has another branch nearby, we decided to go there first so that we wouldn't look like we're over-early or excited to eat or anything.

There was a minizoo back there. There was this big snake, some birds, monkeys, a lizard, and this musang. Inside the snake's cage was a chicken. We wanted to see the snake eat the chicken but the snake was just there, not touching it. Right after the minizoo was a hangout place. We took several pictures there. After some time it was already twelve noon. Sandy texted me, saying that they're already there. I texted back, telling her that we're already in our way. What? We were on our way. Just not that far as if we travelled from Lucban to Tayabas. LOL.

We looked for them and, yup, as expected, there were our teachers, eating. We greeted them happily, not necessarily polite but there was some respect in our greetings. I felt weird that moment. To be honest, I think I'll feel this way everytime I'll see them inside the school or not. Staring at them, I feel like their my aunts and uncles. I don't know why. Plus I'm missing them. I mean right now at this very moment.

My friends told me that we should let them finish eating first so we stepped aside to the nearby cottage wich is really big and a really nice spot for a photoshoot. And then click! click! We are taking pictures again. It was really fun. I really love taking pictures... of myself. LOL. After some time, the teachers left. I watched them as they go, with a pinch of sentiment in me. Then I sat down. Eating time! Finally! I am starving! Fatima then talked to me about us going to her house for some snacks. I was like "Ok. As long as there's food." After some more pictures taken all round the place and meeting Robin with his nephew, we left.

We took off and went to our respective houses to change before going to school to get our clearance signed. I didn't change by the way. I sweat easily. I don't want my clothes which I would wear until the party at the later evening to be sweaty in just the afternoon. Right? But it was really funny cause, like, everyone I will meet in school will ask me, "Why are you still in our uniform?" I brought along the picture album that was composed of our prom pictures. It was a requirement for PEHM. After a few rushing here and there, I completed my clearance and I got my report card along with the NCAE result and the diplomat jacket. Before leaving I asked my friends if we're going to Fatima's but some of them just replied safely. Everyone does it so no big deal.

I went home and played Final Fantasy I. I also had a small conversation with Fatima via text. It's all about I-don't-know-if-we-can-make-it thing to her party. It's because of this Raina-Fatima-Christine thing. By the way, The Housewives were here. They're my mother's friends and they're all housewives. It's actually like Desperate Housewives with more gossip and less sex. Danilo's mother also paid a little visit. Then I received a phone call from my Ate Marian. She's my cousin, working as a nurse in London. Then it was almost 6. Time for Jiru's party!

Yup! The teacher's were there again. Hahaha. It's just weird that we're always catching up with one another in parties. The principal also came, told us not to drink too much. It was funny that every adult expected us to drink. Well, we did. But it took long before that. We first had a few conversations, a dinner and more stuff before we actually went on drinking. Abby, Jeffrey's sister, made an appearance by the way. There's also NJ and Oliver. Some of the TG. It was a really big party. Almost like a wedding reception with less grace and no program.

From Bernard's party a week before, the drunks shifted from Meng, NiƱa and Hexene to Mark Paul, Rubio, Leo and Neil. Arabis was also there ny the way. He was like our new friend since he's a friend of Micah's.

The following Thursday, Kim threw her very own Graduation Party. It was held on their house. We are the first to arrive there, Me, Neil, Christine, Virgi, Bernard and Micah. I ate spaghetti, brownies, buko salad, and cake. People started coming and the place was soon filled. We had just started drinking when Alyssa received news that his brother got in an accident. Whoosh Off she goes. After sharing comments about the news, we continued drinking. After a while, we went inside and started sing our hearts using the WOW! Magic Sing. Some of us slept there and went home 6 in the morning.

Graduation Morning

Good Morning to everyone! I'm already awake and it's the early morning of April 7. A few minutes later, I'll be walking up that stage and get my diplomat. Before we graduate, I would like to thank all the people that made my high school life a fun and wild ride.

First off, I would like to thank The whole section 1 class throughout these past 4 years(Yup. Apollo, Polaris, Titan and Einstein) for making me feel like i'm one of them even though in my first year I came from Mariner(Section 2). I'm also thanking them for all the happy memories they gave me inside and outside the classrooms. I will never forget all the answers you gave me during quizzes and all the assignments that I copied. Promise! I'll pay you back someday!

I would also give my thank you to the whole faculty of the Laboratory High School for developing me as a person even thoguh sometimes they can be rough. I learned a lot from all of you guys. I can't believe I'm actually saying this but I really think that high school would be different if you're not our mentors. I'll always keep your lessons in my mind, trust me. I'll be back to give you some visit when you guys are older. LOL.

I'm also thanking the other sections for even though I'm not in their class, I managed to get close to them. Our batch is just amazing and it would be never be same if you guys aren't the way you are.

Thank you to my groupmates throughout high school. Whether it's for projects, plays and activities(Echo Camp), thank you for allowing me to be a part of the group. I'm also sorry if I wasn't that active. Sometimes, i'm just really not in the mood. Sorry.

I also wanna thank the different cliques. Cafe Society, Yamao Family, Crony Bestfriends, Sandy's group, Ruazol's group, Ototac Aiahsam, TATU Gangzti and everone in between. Even though I'm not inside your cliques, you all have been kind to me. Thanks for a whole lot of memories you gave me. Thanks for listening to me everytime I speak. And thanks for helping me throughout high school. For the Ototac Aiahsam and TATU Gangzti, thank you for making me as one of you. Thanks for making me feel like I belong. The late night drinking sessions, the problems, the advices, the issues, conversations and all the things that occured. Thank you!

Here's a a message I sent to all the seniors in my contact list:

Do you still remember the time you saw your name on that list of lucky students who got in? Or the first time your name was mentionedto tell you where your assigned room would be? Also, yourfirst impressions of those new faces? The first subject you attended? How about your first seatmate? That first classmate you talked to?Or even those loud voices on early mornings? Strange isn't it? That now, in our remaining days in our senior year, we already hear our names called by teachers for the last time in class. The last room where we spent our last class. We already had our last chair beside our last seatmate. The last conversation in our last recess. And the last time you saw the room filled with your classmates, and heard their voices that eventually made up your day. Then you just found yourself saying, "I'll miss this..." Congratz sa 'tin, LHS Batch 2008-2009!
