Veinticuatro

"Veinticuatro". According to the dictionary --or, more likely, Google translator-, it means "Twenty Four". We are the 24th class in our middle school. 24 is us.

like any other school, we have cliques and social circles. the nerds, the 'okay' kids, the cool kids, the skanks, the jocks, the weirdos, the teacher's pets... you name it. As much as I hate to admit it, it's true. those 'sides' DO exist. Some of the kids are neutral --they're good friends with ppl from different circles and not care about the social system-; some are 50-50 --they're a little judgmental and have stereotypes-; some are 'exclusive' --they got a "little world of their own", and ignores the people outside it-; and some are just... introverted --they just don't like to socialize.

Yesterday was our farewell party. a bunch of my classmates put together a short documentary about all of us. They did a great job, it was really nice. but... it's such a shame. It's not about ALL of us. It's just about a BUNCH of us. Too bad, because we are not the only ones in Veinticuatro. there are a lot of important people and important moments that weren't caught on tape. though, once again, good job :)

but, memory lives on. We don't need pictures or videos or anything to remember those priceless moments. Pictures are worth a thousand words, and words would not describe those moments. It's up to you on how would you like to remember those times. it's three years worth to remember :)

I've had a lot of amazing adventures during my three-years here, and I want to thank you for that. Thank you for being there for me when no one else wasn't. Thank you for listening to my problems. Thank you for opening my eyes and make me realize and step out of my perfect little world. Thank you for everything.

It breaks my heart to walk separate ways with you guys. But we have our own lives, we gotta move on.

I really hope you guys are still a part of my life no matter what.

I love you guys :')




P.S.: I don't believe in goodbye's. Just 'see you later's

P.S.S.: Song of the entry is "Us Against The World" by Westlife ;)

National Exams Results. aaaaah!

Hey y'all! So the results were finally out yesterday. I only got the average of 8.3, so... I still haven't decided which high school I'm going to. At first I was really bummed and disappointed that I cried. Well, my parents are okay with that. But I'm not. Wasn't, at least. I wanted to get to 34HS, but my score's not enough. Well, it might be enough --This year's national average plummeted!- but I'd have to get on the second period. So, I might as well have some backup plans. I was thinking, maybe 3 or 6. They're both grrrrreat schools :)

Anyways, it's still a success for me and my friends, so it's worth celebrating. Today we did :) Not quite a bang or anything, but we had fun. In fact, that was impromptu. Nabilla, Raya, Risti, Ceko and I were just checking out yearbook pics at the advertising agency. Then we got really hungry, so we went to the mall. Ceko really insisted to catch 'Iron Man 2', but the movie was closed, what were we supposed to do? lol. Anyways, then he came up with a brilliant idea. "Let's go for a karaoke!" :D

At first we were a little hesitant. But, in the end, we did went to the karaoke place. We sung one crappy local song, and then our personal favorites like Thunder, Love Story, My Life Would Suck Without You, Baby, Just Dance, More Than Words, If I Let You Go, Fix You, Ordinary People... None of us could sing, so it don't matter! We sang off-key, so what? haha

I had a lot of fun today. Sometimes good things just come unexpectedly, right? I'm still bummed at some point, cuz some of my friends aced it and here I am with tight score, and the fact that I might have to say goodbye to 34. I reaaaally want to get there so badly. But, I guess, you can't always get what you want. I get what I need ;)

I'm currently listening to "Hey Whatever" by Westlife, I think that suits the situation right now. I've been listening to Westlife a lot lately --It's been freakishly frequent over the past few weeks lol-, reminiscing the good ol' days. I like their upbeat songs, it's uplifting and lightens up my mood. I forgot how good they are for all these years... It's been, like, 7 years! And I just got the fever again. haha

Well, I think that's it for now. I'll try to write more often.


Toodles! ;)




P.S.: I wonder how Jake feels about my day today. I mean, that's his best friend over there. Don't take this the wrong way, though. I mean, I like Ceko, but not in that way --Not exactly boyfriend material lol. Eww- but... ya never know. Last time I checked, this whole thing with his buddy and me was a little sensitive --A hint of jealousy, obviously! lol-. Wonder if he still got that.... lol
