It started raining pretty hard when I woke up, an I was realllyyy hoping that school will be cancelled (cause it usually is when there's a thunderstorm). On the way I was muttering "rain harder!" under my breath non-stop for literally 20min, I was really desperate not to go to school today cause I had LT (Leadership Training) aka NCC. I can't believe that's included in the final grade *groans* I think just 2 two weeks ago, I had more than 5 demerits already hehe. Forgive me for not knowing that requirements. Well anyway, school's not canceled ): haha. We reached school and the security guard came out with an umbrella to fetch me from the car. That's what you get for paying a high tuition fee hah, you'd get a personal bodyguard. I think he knows all the names of the students in the school, since it's a pretty small branch, cause before you can get home, they have to announce your name over the speaker thing to let you know that your parents are outside to pick you up. You can't just go out w/o a "Commuter's Pass" - I know, believe me, it's complicated.
First subject was English. Our English teacher's also our Class Adviser (Form Teacher). I'm still not used to saying 'Ma'am' and 'Sir' haha. I'm so used to calling the teachers by their names. Like for eg, during attendance roll call we're suppose to answer "Ma'am/Sir present Ma'am/Sir" but I always forget. And I swear just cause I'm new, she targets me most of the time to answer questions or give recitations - not fun. Like just now, she asked me to summarize the column we were reading, thank God I actually knew what it was about. That's about it really, for English just now. Half the time we were distracted cause we were talking about what our jobs will be in the future. It started with Ilana wanting to be a Journalist, then went up to LA who jokingly said that he'll replacing his father as the P.E teacher in the school haha, Luis being Playboy Philippines' future publisher/editor haha and Jireh being Christine's manager when she takes up modeling for Victoria's Secret hahah! It was pretty funny when Jireh said it straight like he's really planning to do it... even teacher laughed like crazy.
Science! I actually like Science, cause it's only Chemistry. It's easier than in SG too. But it's weird though, we learn scientific notation, indices (the easiest indices possible) and other weird stuff here that's supposed to be in math, but are not haha. But it's cool, I like our teacher (Ms. Fabian). We got into our groups just now and finished our experiment from yesterday. I'm with LA, Claire, Mara, Brandon and Stephen. The active members are only like me, Claire, Mara and LA though, the other two just copies whatever we write down hah. The class ended pretty fast, cause that's the only thing we did, and half the time we were distracted cause we were talking about SPF and Claire's previous school (she's a returnee). We had Accounting next. Mr. De Silva wasn't in the class for like the first 30min cause apparently he was 'busy fixing his tie' in the bathroom. Now, you can guess his gender, and yes, he's really like that lol! This is like our 3rd meeting for Accounting and until now, we haven't studied a thing. Don't ask. He's stubborn with all the requirements ugh. Just now we were discussing the "Inter-dependencies of Man" and it basically talks about how a fisherman, baker, butcher, farmer and a carpenter are related to each other. He looks at it for a while and says "Why isn't there a dressmaker in here?" Yep, that pretty much says a lot. The girls couldn't stop giggling.
Snacks! I didn't eat though, didn't feel like it. I just stayed in class until the period was over, isn't it fun to be all alone in a classroom? Lol. Especially when... *cough* okay, moving on! Ugh, LT. Everyone came in like 15 minutes earlier just to prepare all the requirements for LT. Everything has to be on your table, all arranged, for the inspection. The class' COCC were right in front to be inspected by Mr. Lasaleta and they would inspect us. I think I had more than 5 demerits for not bringing an extra shirt (that's 5 demerits already), for an unpolished buckle (I find this unfair, I polished my buckle the night before) and for having long fingernails (it wasn't
that long). Our teacher's actually nice and funny once the lesson starts but the inspection's scary. Once he pulled Jamie's belt so hard to see if it's on tight until one of the belt loops came out. And he came on to Wynford and pulled some hair from his upper lip using his finger cause no guy supposed to be sporting a moustache. Yikes.
Oh! During the inspection, Leanne collapsed ): Like literally. We just heard a loud bang and next thing we knew she was on the floor. She hit her bottom lip on the table and her head on the teacher's table in the process. Everyone pretty much freaked out... I found out she had a heart problem wayy back then. The COCC carried her to the front office, but she's okay now. She woke up shortly after and went home. She said she couldn't even remember fainting.. aww, Leanne, get better! We had a surprise quiz and I failed... how said is that. my first failure of the year. When we announce our scores and I said 8/20, Karl was like "Jeneva, 8?! Wtf?" haha. Lesson was pretty longgg (duh, 2 hours) but we had lunch after that. I ate, I was actually pretty hungry cause I didn't eat during snacks.
Homeroom! I was actually gone for most of the homeroom cause I had to take a SSHA test (forgot what it stands for) at the Guidance Office. When I got back, I found out 2 things that until now, I have no idea if it's good or bad. 1) Miguel's my partner for the Engagement Game project. 2) I was nominated to be a Class Officer. We don't know the results yet though, maybe tomorrow cause ma'am has yet to compile the votes. Last subject was TLE - Food Management. We had a recitation, I did okay, at least I managed to answer the questions teacher asked me. And correctly, mind you, haha. That's the only thing we did actually cause Ms. Hocson's sick and could barely talk. After that, we had the daily class evaluation, Miguel did it. I love how it's all "Section 3A, called to order!" *hits court mallet on the table 3 times* After all the taking down of accomplishments, problems and resolutions, going home time, yay! I fixed my locker and headed down. It was still raining pretty hard, thank God dad was already there when I got down.
I took a nap after I got home, I couldn't help it, the weather was so cold. Until now, it's still raining. Unbelievable, but please, continue on so that school's suspended tomorrow hehe. So yeah, that's how it usually is everyday... only with different subjects each day of course. Like on Wednesdays, we have Law <-- hardest subject
ever, I'm never gonna take up law. Attny. Pamintuan said it himself, the only nice thing about being a lawyer is that you're called Attorney, haha! Oh and pssst, he's the father of the guy sitting beside me, Ricardo.
