my mother's birthday

august 5

it's my mother's birthday... she had a party at home... we had lots of guests... i met many family friends... as what always happens, i was with the kids that time... i was playing and taking pictures with them... all of us were happy that time...

i gave my mother Ferrero chocolates again just like during her last birthday... actually that's her favorite chocolate that's why i gave her that... my thanked me and i was touched... a simple gift made us happy and contented... it's really the thought that counts...

it was late at night when some of our guests left... all of us really had a nice time together...

the UPCAT

at last, UPCAT was over...

my schedule for the UPCAT was august 3, at 12:30 in the afternoon... i took the exam in camerino elementary school... i was with ervin, ian and brian...

i was somewhat pressured with this admission test... there were many aspirants like me... all of us are hoping to pass this exam...

during the day of the UPCAT, i was not feeling well... i was experiencing chest pain that time... before going to the venue, i bought marshmallows and chocolate bars... my companions also bought the foods they will bring to the venue...

when we arrived at camerino elementary school, we lots of students there... we still waited for a while because those who took the exam in the morning were not yet done with the test...

inside the hall where the exam is given, the left-handed students were isolated on the right side... actually i was one of them... that's why i was not able to seat beside my friends...

the exam was a tough one, i could say... it lasted for more than 5 hours i guess... after taking the exam we all felt tired...

that day was really very tiring for all of us...

the UPCAT review

1 week of review

most of us will be taking the UPCAT... we had a review in preparation for this...
we spent 1 week in reviewing for the UPCAT... our section was with the iv-hydrogen... we reviewed many topics... we even had an exercise in chemistry which we really enjoyed... that was a cool activity...

our former teachers also taught us during the reveiw... they gave us lots of answer sheets... all of us were just having fun while learning...

we were somewhat pressured for the coming UPCAT... before we had our UPCAT our mominess gave each one of us a piece of flat tops... they said that's a lucky charm for us... flat tops is one of the favorites of the LataX...

swimming at watercamp

july 27

after going to the church we proceeded to watercamp in kawit, cavite... we had our family outing... some family friends were also with us... as usual i was with the kids... i always go with them that's why sometimes i think i'm getting childish...

we arrived there probably at 1 in the afternoon... we first had our lunch... actually i ate a lot that time... i really enjoyed eating the foods they prepared...

finally, i went on swimming after resting for a while... it was raining that time... i realized that it's good to go on swimming on rainy days... you would not have any sunburn...

it was already 9pm when we arrived home... we were all very tired that time... but we enjoyed...

trip to tagaytay

july 26

i and my family went to tagaytay... the weather was not fine that day... we first went to picnic groove... there were many tourists that time... our family took pictures together...

suddenly it rained so we left the cottage hurriedly so we won't get wet... when the rain stopped, we decided to have horseback riding... unfortunately it rained again that's why we were not able to finish the horseback riding...

we just stayed in the car while it's raining... we had our snack while it was raining so hard... when we were about to leave, i bought some souvenir stuffs for my friends...

after going to picnic groove we proceeded to mahogany public market to buy pork meat and beef... that was my first time to be there... there were lots of vendors there... they were selling the same products yet the prices were different...

the interrogation

july 19

i was still online until dawn... that time i was still chatting with my classmates, hannah and marco... we started since the night of july 18... we have not stopped chatting because the two of them keep on asking me lots of questions... they were intriguing me that time, specially marco...

i was forced to answer the questions they were asking me just to end up the interrogation and i still have to wake up early to go to the church...

clariz's birthday

july 15

it's clariz's birthday... she's one of my bestfriends... we were classmates during our first and second year in high school...

on the first day of school, we were seatmates because our seating arrangement was arranged alphabetically... i was surprised when she first talked to me because i did not remember that we met each other during the orientation for the freshmen... at first i was annoyed by her because she always scolded me... she said that i was very slow... but i admit that's true...

i did not know that we would be bestfriends because i was annoyed by her before... but there are times when friendship starts in a different way...
