THE RETURN TO MID-TERM EARTH
Carpe Noctem (Seize the Night) - Week #26
The last three months of the 2nd Semester are up ahead. Time flies by so fast. It was only yesterday I remember meeting new friends, facing those panel interviews in organizations, moments of moving into the dorm, those times in Square Canteen just sitting there studying, or reading, or talking, and of course eating.
This incoming week will start off with release of test papers I guess. The Preliminary Examinations closed the 2002 portion of our current School Year. Reviving my thoughts on the results, I think I did fairly well on all of them exception to the Sciences. But as I see it, these results might be the best so far compared to any of the 1st Semester exams. Hopefully my speculation is true, and hopefully I started the 2nd Semester smoothly.
In dorm life, which resumes in a few hours, I'm hoping to move in and be organized. I have to clean the kitchen inside F3 (my duty, while Lance does the bathroom). I couldn't clean it two Fridays ago since I didn't have a sponge.
I've already admitted I'm actually missing the times hanging out with the guys. Being away from them and other friends, being isolated, has been one experience these past two weeks. I want to return and talk about VCD movies, FHMs, events around the school, etc.
There are still some projects to name. A quiz in Reed-2 on our first meeting this Midterm. I'm not exactly sure if it's a critically graded quiz, but all I know is that the person with the highest score will get to watch [Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers] for free, because she'll pay for him or her. It's a prize, and sounds cool, but no matter what I'll be watching "Lord of the Rings 2". I haven't even studied the selection of the Gospel yet.
And of course there's the [Biological Science] project that's frustrating because I can't help Kate on it. Coordination with this project has been terrible. Members of our group are scattered everywhere. Las Piñas to Tanza to Dasmariñas. Hopefully we can conclude this project and do finishing touches during the first two days of the week.
NSTP-CWTSP and PE Swimming this week. I keep thinking we won't go on-location in NSTP and we won't go swimming this week in PE. But I remind myself that these classes don't stop for any reason. So on Tuesday, NSTP brings us back to Barangay Bautista Zone #10 where I get to see my family if they're still there. (Ate Rose might be working abroad in Dubai, meaning she'll send her two kids back to Antique). I like my current assigned family. Ate Rose is easy to get along with, she understands my taglish, and we're used to each other in friendly talk. I'm fearful because I'm hearing from some of my classmates that their families don't click with them. If they can't click to "great talkers" that Broadjourn have so many of, what will happen to me with my taglish?! I have to find another good family just in case.
In Swimming, I left the Preliminary Term happy. Good grade in the Prelim Exam, and for the first time in my life I could swim. Maybe the technique isn't mastered yet, but I'm staying afloat and crossing one side of the pool to the other without stopping. I like this subject, and I look forward to studying the other swimming techniques such as the backstroke, treading, etc.
For the Heraldo Filipino, the release of the Lasalleño which was a Christmas Edition and was delayed last month, will be in mid-January. I don't know how it'll turn out. If one of my articles gets published in it, my article ends with something like "so this Christmas, don't spend it alone.... blah blah blah".
I guess no worries there. Just new assignments for the Broadsheet perhaps and of course time to get working on the next Lasalleño, the special edition one to celebrate ten years.
Here's to a great week! To reunite with classmates, friends, dormers, and the atmosphere of La Salle Dasmariñas.
