Swords and dragons.

I had an appointment with the dentist yesterday, plus it was the distribution of grades. Luckily, I didn't have any failing grades. I was expecting to receive more than my card, and I got my expectations right. Along with my grades, I received the results from the CEM test I had last month, the rest of the graduation pictures, and two certificates from ACT (Asian College of Technology, where my cousin Kervey graduated). There was also a big sale in SM (which lasts for three days), so I got to buy some stuffs as well.

Oh, of course, I don't have the best grades (who does when you're lazy?). But passing in all is good enough for me. :))

Just the graduation pictures. Yeah, still had my big, wavy hair. :3

The two certificates I received from ACT. You see, I won't be studying there, so if anyone's actually interesting in receiving these, I'd be glad enough to give them away.

Since it was sale in SM yesterday, I got to buy three new shirts from Artwork. It was very inexpensive (of course). I bought these shirts that had two words describing one thing. I even found this shirt that said swords and dragons, and reminded me a lot of Skyrim. It could be a Skyrim inspired t-shirt for what we all know... or something. Then the two others were basically rock and roll, and skulls and bones. 

Anyway, speaking of college, since it's the next stage for me, I've decided to take the entrance exam this coming Monday. I'm slightly nervous, to be honest. I mean, so far I don't know anyone who is taking the same course as I am (Fine Arts) in CIT, so I suppose if there's no one, I'll be going alone in the first day of school and probably be lost in the corridors or halls of the whole university. I am just hoping my sister's boyfriend will come along on Monday to show me around, I would really need a tour guide. The advantage of going there, though, is that CIT is the one and only campus in Cebu, so I won't be fleeing from one campus to another to catch up my different classes. I have algebra and statistics, which will only be occurring for one semester each. So, after that, I have no more math! WOOO!

Fuck N8.

I have a lot of complaints about my five months old phone, Nokia N8. It always stops working, freezes in the middle of everything, and I can't even remove the albums from the music player even if there's nothing inside. I could get it reformatted, but then I suppose I'll lose Ovi Maps (which I never use anyway). Stupid cellphone is stupid. It's only five months old, and it has already started acting like a whore. My old Nokia N70 was better, it started being all bitchy after three years.

I spoke with my sister about this earlier, and she suggested me to buy Samsung Galaxy II, just like her phone. Well, I am planning on it, and get the N8 sold. My phone pisses me off, and I could throw it anytime because of frustration. I even have problems with transferring the photos from my phone to the computer! Douche phone. So, I tell you. I do not recommend Nokia N8 to you at all. I don't know about the N9 though, I suppose it's better.

Hide all the objects!

Keeping yourself entertained while you're at home and not being allowed to go out is not the easiest thing you can do in, well, my world. So, since it's so freaking boring here at home and I'm such a lazy ass, I've decided to download a handful of games. Oh, yeah, I don't really have so much to do here at home than blog, read, or play Skyrim, that's why I've decided to download different games. Oh yeah, I'm pretty much a pirate. I'm not saying I can't afford anything, it's just that, I've never bought anything from the internet except for credits for my avatar or account in IMVU. I spent a lot of money on that actually. Yeah, pirates. My dad was a pirate long before I knew what it was. But you see, have I been as rich as Bill Gates, purchasing would never be a problem.

Speaking of games, my favorite kind is Hidden Object Games/Adventure Games mostly because these games are the most interesting ones. They usually speak about horror stories or murders and mysteries, and you have to solve them. I'm not the smartest kid around, so I tend to look for walkthroughs. My favorite so far is MCF or Mystery Case Files, they have the most awesome games! I have played most, if not, all of their games! And my favorites of the MCF are the games about the haunted Ravenhearst Manor, Ravenhearst (2006), Return to Ravenhearst (2008), and the latest which I'm about to play as soon as it finishes downloading, Escape from Ravenhearst (2011).

Hmm, looking through the games, the only game I haven't played by MCF that is available for Windows is the 13th skull. I actually tried downloading it multiple times but there's always an error when I install it. So, I suppose I should wait a little. Dire Grove is freaking awesome, and I won't forget to mention it was really creepy. Every game is just awesome in their own way, and I definitely recommend it to you! :)

Vulnerable.

Most of you probably know I love listening to metal, but I don't usually settle down for one thing only. Sure, before I started listening to metal, I was really addicted to The Used., Flyleaf, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and other bands related to rock. Speaking of The Used, they have now released their latest album entitled Vulnerable. I'm listening to it right now. Well, to be honest, I find the lyrics somewhat cheesy. Their songs are catchy, which is good. But you know, to be honest, I like their earlier albums more. But that's always it, I'm always not so sure about albums when I listen to it for the first time.

But to rate the album so far, I rate it 6/10. :)

Hope.

To be honest, I miss going to school. No, no, not for the educational reasons, I'm speaking of friends here. I haven't been able to adjust to me being an alumnus of that school yet, it just happened way too fast. I must say I have spent ten months with wonderful classmates, and it's just so lovely to think of. Of course, most of us being sixteen, we are expected to be a little more mature than we used to be. Even I can see the changes, and it's making me feel nostalgic... already. I know, to people out there who don't live in my shoes, you see things differently. I probably sound nothing more than pathetic to you right now, or you fully agree. High school is over, and most of the fun is over too. I will get over this, probably, but it has been too soon. Ten months... just ten months of senior year. Oh well, then I will probably reminisce about this... until I die or something. :))

Villa Teresita.

I wrote about a Farewell Party on my last post, right? That's exactly what I've been up to for the whole day. It was sort of frustrating. We were asked to meet up in school at seven o'clock, and I went there at seven thirty or so, still being kind of sleepy and all that. I had a terrible challenge with sleeping last night. I didn't get a chance to get some rest before two o'clock. I suppose because of the graduation, I felt sort of sad because it was the end and all that, if you know what I mean. Anyway, when I arrived, I spotted no one from Hope. I sat in the car waiting (mom wouldn't go home since I was still alone, probably the first), when Jackie came walking. Sure, then it was good.

I kept sending text messages to Kerrvy and the rest of the pack around six o'clock in the morning, wondering if they'd come along. But, since it was the last party ever, I knew I had to go, or I would regret. So sure, I went without even knowing if Kerrvy or the rest of the pack would be there. She contacted me later on, and she came along with Charisse. The worst part? We sat outside school for about two hours, and we left around nine o'clock. So much for seven o'clock, huh?

Kept walking around the area with Kerrvy. We weren't able to eat breakfast because we left so early, so we decided to buy some snacks in a nearby store.

Junk food for breakfast. Wow, HOW HEALTHY. :))

Just Jackie being slightly emo... :))

There we sat outside school, waiting on our adviser.

After two crappy hours, we went to Villa Teresita Resort.

Waiting for the others to arrive. :)

Charlie and Martin! Oh, and I have to mention that the other senior section, Charity, was in Villa Teresita as well!

Trixia! :))

I didn't really take pictures because I was afraid it was going to fall in the pool or something, so I decided to keep it in my bag, safe and sound. But I'm sure you all have the idea what we were up to. Anyway, it was fun. I think I got a little sunburn, but it was fucking worth it. I suppose I won't be seeing Lyka in a long time, or worse, forever, because she's going back to Manila. I saw her for the last time earlier, and I will miss her a lot. Kerrvy will probably leave for Iligan to study for college, and that's leaving me alone in CIT-U. Or well, if Angelica chooses to study in CIT-U as well, I have her to keep up with during the first few weeks. I'm soon planning to take an entrance test along with a classmate of mine named Kurt, who's planning on taking up Architecture. We'll see how it'll go. All I want to do now is to see if I can get in to CIT-U with the degree of Fine Arts or AB Graphics and Media (Fine Arts). Well, guess who's excited?

Alumnus.

Ah, I'm finally out of high school! I feel both happy and sad, and I'm pretty sure most of you already know why anyway. Of course, tomorrow we will be having our Farewell Party in Villa Teresita Resort, and go swimming. Oh well, at this moment, I will a little bit sad inside. All those moments... just memories now. It just won't be the same anymore. We are being separated by schools, college degrees, and even places. Darn... then college will come, a different part of life where influences are even stronger and education is more difficult.

Just look how awesome my hair there is!

Of course, we still had to take the last pictures before saying goodbye.

Getting my awards. I got the Certificate of Recognition and Missionary of the Year. Meh, ain't any hardwork in getting them. It felt more like I bought the awards than actually earning them for any work I've done. :))

At least I got a medal... :))

Diploma, baby!

The graduates! Gosh... ♥

Singing our final song... :(

Group picture for the win! ♥

And some pictures with my other friends as well. :)

I shall say thank you very much to the section I belong to, Hope. I will miss all the memories I had with them, especially with Kerrvy, Trixia, Julie, Charisse, Jackie, Lyka, and Angelica. Oh, how sad this ending is. I don't know what I should really feel, happy or sad. I will be meeting new friends, of course, but none of these new friends will replace my old friends that I've spent years with. Ah, I'll be seeing most of my classmates tomorrow in our Farewell Party, then it's truly goodbye. :(

Full.

Because of my birthday, Kervey's graduation, and my own graduation, mom decided to have a party today... which was more of a blast than I expected it to be. I don't know why, but it has always been that parties start at the almost late hours of the day. If there's one thing I've decided to understand, then it is that mom doesn't like parties to start on midday or anytime earlier than five o'clock. So, basically that means the party did start at five o'clock. Sure, I had to invite my closest buddies. Tomorrow's graduation, and then it's bye bye. :(

Of course, now I always start my day with Skyrim. :))

Let's be honest here. Seeing these huge banners (1 and 2) was scary. Am I supposed to look like a celebrity or something? But seeing mom putting up balloons was worse. Seriously... I'm not a child anymore.

I don't really know what mom planned to do. All I knew was that there was going to be a catering... nothing more.

Yup.

Seeing that was... oh my God, I have no word for it.

Yeah, my mom hired a band! :))

Buddies! (1) Kevin and Martin, (2) Julie and Kerrvy, (3) Kurt and Ian, and (4) Lyka and Jackie.

JackieTinKa!

Trixia came as well. :))

Yup. THEM ALL! Thank you buddies. :3

And, well... they requested me to go sing. DAMN, it was scary. I haven't tried singing in front of a whole audience ever since I was... about ten or so? o.O

Oh well, I did have a lot of fun though. It only lasted till my buddies decided to go home. I mean, yeah, sure, I have cousins to hang out with, but they were busy drinking, and I don't drink heavy drinks. So, no thank you, I'd rather stay with myself. :))
