Blurred on purpose



So this was the video I was talking about in my previous post.
Just jamming with Janina and Reza. And yes, it's blurred on purpose. HAHAHA, I don't want you to see how messy my room is okaaay.

So I woke up today and found my room mate's stuff all fixed and ready to goooo.

Ugh. Where am I supposed to spend my Holy Week vacay? I don't have anywhere else to stay, besides Kalay which I assume is closed for that week. And I really don't think I'm going home to Libagon. I mean, hello? I can but I'm not really up for it. It's just a week. But I badly wanna go home. I wanna see my grandma. I wanna know how she's doing and all. Anyway, so I woke up at around 1:30pm. After I did my devo, I took a bath and went to Reza's room and asked her to accompany me in a super-duper-late lunch. Ate at Rodic's: Liemposilog. While we were there, I told her about my mom's before-and-after-death story. So we basically chatted for a whole hour. We got back to Kalay, and well, watched videos in her laptop. I showed her MVs of Yeng and Matthew West, and also Fireflight. We decided to jog but when we got outside Kalay, it was raining! So we were stuck outside Kalay until Janina and Laurice showed up.





And then we headed to the canteen and accompanied Janina and Lau for dinner. Romeo also sat with us. With Lau around, you can already guess where the topic of the conversation's headed. It started when I told them how OP I was because all three of them were Sodium babies and I was the only Potassium baby. Romeo mentioned that he also was in Sodium. And then the topic went from Sodium to "Truth", Romeo's section in his senior year which was also the section of "Chip" (let's leave that codename at that) and then Lau mentioned that it was also the section of someone. She stared at me with those 'you-know' eyes. Well, Janina and Reza thought that she was talking about my singer friend whom they were linking to me ever since the earth was born. And so...the issue began. And great, now Romeo really thinks I like this particular singer friend. Okaaay. -___- And jsyk, I'm not really sure either. Hahaha.

After that, of course... (c) Regine Arcenal





Well, and more photos!
And then, we went to my room and jammed. Actually, Reza shot a video of us. Well, I'm not sure if I'm gonna post it or not. The lighting is bad kasi. We sang Skyscraper and It Will Rain aaand Strong Enough.




HAHAHAHA Ja, I know haggard ka today.

I really like this pic.

White and proud.

So today's the 14th anniversary of Destiny-Manila! Yaay! =))

Each network is assigned a color. Ate LV's net is white. :) I missed SOL1 because I woke up late and I attended the 3pm service. My first-timers, Gina and David, weren't there. They didn't show up. How saaad. But anyway, the service was awesome! A video clip about the "Cardboard Testimonies" was shown. I had goosebumps. People wrote their experiences in their past life on one side of the cardboard. And then they flipped it and so on the other side was the things that God blessed them and the changes in their lives after they encountered God. It was so beautiful, I nearly cried. Also, a video clip from the movie Hercules was shown. Again, it was great. After the service, we had our Leadership cell at the backstage of UPFI: Ishmael Bernal Gallery. These are some of the things on exhibit:


Before our Leadership cell:


With Ate Karen and my cellmates. :) 


After that, we met outside FI. Picture taken by Kuya Matthew.

And then had some more pictures togetherrr. Ate Karen treated us for the very first time! Cheers for more treats to come. Hahaha :D
Went to Rodic's to eat dinner. Tapsilog! Mmmm :9

Took the Chem17 final exam todaaay!

I won't say or comment about anything. I'll just wait and pray for the results. Asdfghjkl. Before the exam, I was really anxious. I literally crammed for the whole thing. I admit it, I wasn't prepared at all. And so whatever happens, I'll just accept it. I deserve what I deserve.

After the Chem17 FE, I texted Ate Karen and told her what happened in the exams. She called me and I told her everything. She told me to move on and just pray for it. We don't know what God's will is, so just pray and pray and pray for the results. I'm really grateful to Ate Karen. I'm grateful for having a cell leader. She just knows what to say in every situation I'm in. I was headed to NIP when she called. I was going to see my pre-final standing in Phy71. When I arrived in NIP and searched my student number in the paper posted outside the faculty room, I cried. I wasn't expecting what I saw. I cried and cried and cried. I was so discouraged and I just felt so alone. As I was walking to CS Lib, I kept on thinking about what Sir Kito Espiritu said during a bible study he once conducted (btw, he's my Kas1 prof): "It's not about you. It's about God." And so, I realized that God was clearly teaching me something. He is discipling me. A tough discipling for that matter. When I saw the results, turned out that I had four absences in our recit class. Failing grade well-deserved. :( And so I just cheered up myself. I stopped being sad. Just like that. Rode the Ikot and went back to Kalay.

After quite some time, Ate Sheryl went to Kalay and collected the survey sheets for her Sikolohiya 126 class. And well, this happened:
