Oct 23

Tagaytay:

Okay, I'll make this quick since I'm a *little* late with this.
We went to Tagaytay two Sundays ago for Tito Lito's birthday. Huwaw. As you can see from the pictures, everything was great! It was a Spanish buffet, by the way. I tried to eat a LITTLE bit of everything (which is the only strategy for a buffet that won't make you throw up), which means I had one plate for the salad, two plates with bits of the main dishes, soup, two plates of dessert, a cup of chocolate mousse and water. Sobrang sarap ng pumpkin soup, saka ng pata tim. I ate dessert after watching the cultural presentation; as in gusto ko nang pakyawin nang sunod sunod pero I knew it would be better to savor it after digesting some of the things I ate, kaya... grabe, super duper self control. My cousins were already so deep into the dessert and I was getting distracted because of envy. Haaaaay. But it paid off. Sobrang sinulit ko na yung bayad.

And another thing: I actually went to Taal Vista way way waaaay back when I was a small kid. Like, before schooling age. And I enjoyed it so much, but never knew what place it was. So when they told me that we had gone there before and all, I was just so happy! I have this pink jacket I wore there the first time we went; I took the jacket again this time (and it still fits me, mind you). I'm just sorry I wasn't able to see the playground... or maybe they already tore it down? Oh well. Nostalgia. I love you Tagaytay.

Last Saburday:

Okay, ang sabog ng araw nun.
Another session of review classes. Gah, school activities are taking up all of my Saturdays!!! I wasn't planning on going, because I couldn't bear the thought of sitting in class, listening to Mr. Geom Teacher again (Sorry, it's just a personal preference; I swear, I like Sir Andie better). Mom ordered me to go, so I did, and I arrived there one hour late. Yak, napaka-walang hiya. Anyway, good thing it was a pure Algebra session. It helped with the test, although siyempre, I don't really see the point of knowing the Domain and Range and whether it's a function or not. Go to hell domain and range! I wouldn't really give a damn.

We went to Bianca, Joanne and Jamie's joint birthday celebration in the Cottonwoods' clubhouse-- I was mussed and cranky from the butt cramps due to traffic (and to think it's only a small distance from school, but noooo, it had to take us an hour to get there), but I got there alright. Angelo was there, as well as his cousin, Miggy (btw, si Angelo yung prom date ni Ate, so Ghe, Aya, yun yung pangalan niya). Now Miggy likes this girl, which happens to be one of Bianca's friends, and he wanted to ask her to the prom, which explains why he was pale and clammy and shaking. The three of us (Angelo, me and Ate) kept teasing him into doing it, which was fun. Such a great guy. In the end, he finally asked her, not on the balcony, not by the swimming pool, but by the comfort room. (Not the ideal place but... at least it wasn't cheesy. Baduy nga lang. But it was the only time she wasn't surrounded by her friends.) The three of us watched from our table; we couldn't make out what the result was so we asked him.

Us: What did she say?
Him: She said... "Let's get out of the bathroom."
Me: What?!
Him: "Let's get out of the bathroom."

And that, my friends, is why we were stumped, for a good few moments of the evening.

Me: I never knew there was an answer like that. I always thought it was either "yes" or "no".
Angelo: *moment of silence* That answer... is so... ALIEN.

We tried translating it. I suppose she meant she needed time to think about it.

I do think it'll end well though. He's a good guy anyway.

Today:

Algeb and AP test. I wasn't worried about AP because Ms Henson isn't the sort to give questions on obscure details. Turns out, I was wrong. So... Hello damnation. I did intelligent guessing on most parts, especially the ones with names. Why do medieval rulers have to number themselves?! I can't keep track of all the Louises, Gregories, Urbans, Leos, Henries, Richards, Johns, Alfreds, Pauls and their annoying roman numerals. What's worse is they kept going to war with all sorts of people, in all sorts of wars, and I can't really remember anything else except for the conclusion that they are war freaks.

Okay. I'm in no state of mind to continue this sensibly.
