Back from ISAC

Hey! We're back from Baguio. We had our highlights and our lowlights and altogether we got 5th place. We were 3 points away from being in the playoffs. :( It was sad but I guess it just wasn't our year. Well, she got it and I got to say that she did well but not as hard as Leah. Coach Stocking chose her and I just got to accept it. I have bigger fish to fry. It's nice to vent out your frustration so that you don't keep it all inside you. Then that will bring you down. Basketball season is over and now it's soccer. I'm going to work hard and try out for UP varsity teams. You never know, I might end up being a volleyball player, which I love also. :)

I just hope that it doesn't go to her head. If you know what I mean. She's the kind of person who likes to show it and I wish for her to have a reality check. This isn't the same when you get out of high school. I hope she learns that soon enough, she won't have friends like I do because she uses them for her own benefits. I better stop complaining and get back to work. :)

Later y'all.

Blue Eagle Atenean

I just found out from my sister last Saturday that I got into ATENEO!! I'm so happy because now I really know that I have a life after high school, even though I will only have two weeks of vacation before attending school again. I also got into BS Psychology and that is one tough course to get into. Now, that doesn't mean that I'll stop working hard to get salutatorian or valedictorian because that will help pay for some tuition. Still can't believe how I found out that I got in. "Do you want to know something life-changing?", my sister said. "You got into Ateneo!"

Hopefully, they'll have something that I can do as for activities. Maybe i'll try out for varsity sports or you never know... :)

Anyways, later...

Tennis and Rockband 2 and Puzzles

This vacation I got to learn how to play tennis. I went with the Davis family and then went with Mrs. Davis. At first I thought I would never be able to get it right because I always kept going back to my badminton ways. But after four lessons I became much better than I was before. I could actually play a real game! Service, Forehand, Backhand, Volley, Smash! The change in grips I couldn't get used to until my last lesson before I would return to Basketball. I really had fun learning. Mrs. Davis said that if I had one more month of training then I would be better than her. I doubt that because she is so dang good. :)

And now for Rockband 2. The first time I tried it was before going to Punta De Uian, which was also a nice getaway. I kept hitting the rim and found out that I was too close to the drums. After a tennis lesson, Mrs. D had fun trying Mario Kart and Rockband 2. She closely became addicted to the game and wanted a Rockband 2 Party with Chocolate Fondue using the leftover chocolate from New Year's. The day was full of fun, having played with the kids and sort of tutoring Michael and then tennis with Mrs. Davis. We went home afterwards to take our showers because we... were... sweaty! :) We then ended up going to Hangang because Jewel was reserved. By the way, the Davis' got locked out of their house and ended up having to break in through a window. What fun!

After dinner, we went to the Davis house and played ROCKBAND 2 'til 12 midnight!! Oh my goodness, it was so much fun. We had chocolate fondue with funnel cake. At first it wasn't that runny to go through the funnel so Mrs. D added some more milk and it was good after that. There were marshmallows, pears, apples, bananas, grapes, and pretzels. :) We also played a little Twister in the night and day.

Yesterday, I went to the Davis house after deciding that it was late to go to a massage and had to reschedule it. I tried doing this puzzle that was a 1000 pieces and the princesses were all wearing gold dresses! It was really hard and they had only done about 380 pieces. I left pretty late and was at least able to help with the border and the princesses. :) That was a fun last night of vacation.

Welcome Back!

Today is the first day we come back from vacation and so far it has been great to see my friends although I saw some already yesterday. :) I gave my very good friends earrings. I'm really glad that I went to Isabela this vacation so that I could give them gifts for Christmas. It's really nice to see my friends after three weeks.

Oh yeah! And I am actually able to do my NHS Proposal, so I'm happy about that too. Now it's just a matter of finishing it you know. Also got to get ready for Student Council today so better get going. Later.

Allergies

I've spent most of my vacation either being sick or being sick, literally. I've had allergies and a cough and a cold. I've been trying to workout since ISAC is coming up and I play a big role but me being sick hasn't really helped. Hopefully, tomorrow I can workout some and shoot hoops as well as run some.

It's almost time to go back to school and I'm going to have to worry about college applications and Student Council as well as NHS. Ugh! Senior video I also have to start. :( I'm sad and happy to graduate soon.

Don't really know what to say right now so I'll go. 'Til later.
