To Alcoy.

We went back to Alcoy today to go swimming. I had a lot of fun even if it rained a multiple times and the sun didn't peek out so much. No seriously, with this heat, sunshine isn't actually needed. My mom woke me up at around seven o'clock. I only got to sleep for four hours because... I... slept late... at around three o'clock in the morning. HAHA so much for taking care of myself. :))

We started driving at eight o'clock, and came to Alcoy at ten o'clock. There was a lot of people there, and the sky was gray. We had our early lunch, and we set off to swimming. I took with me my swimming goggles because, of course, it's the sea I'll be swimming through, and there's a lot more to see there than the tiles of a swimming pool. It was absolutely amazing, there were a lot of corals and tiny fishes, and that was really interesting. Well, at one point it was as scary as fuck. Let me show you some photos:

In the mini bus, on the way to Alcoy. I sat by the window, and feeling the breeze was AWESOME. :))
Swimming! At first, I had my hair tied back (mainly because my mom was concerned about my hair being straightened and could possibly get damaged). But I got conscious over my body, so I took my hair down. It doesn't matter, my hair got wet anyway. :)) 
Skimboarding! :3
I tried to, first time, but I literally failed. HAHA, was fun though.
We love chilling on this small, traditional fishing boat. :)
My cousin Laurie and Ralph got stabbed in their feet from these sea urchins. My cousin Vincent went around swimming with Kervey and Mark taking up these creatures. As you can see, they found a star fish as well. :))

And for the "scary" part, I, Amille, Laurie, Sweet, ate Tiny, and Hannah were chilling out in that floating cottage. I kept jumping into the "pool" thing of the cottage where there were many fishes swimming around. Then they decided to go to the back part of the cottage to catch some fishes with Laurie and Amille's fishnet blouses. I jumped into the water and didn't really look at what was behind me, but rather concentrating on the fishes. When I surfaced, ate Tiny said, "It's pretty deep down there." I was wondering how deep it was, so I decided to look for myself. I took a deep breath and went under, and saw something that actually did scare the shit out of me. The ocean floor just suddenly vanished in a rather dark depth, and I was racing towards the cottage, trying to get up. It was pretty shitty. I haven't actually seen anything like that... I mean not clearly.

The Floating Cottage, as which I call it. :))
That's exactly how it went. :))
I actually tried drawing what it looked like, but it seems as if I've failed there. Oh well, scary? Yes.

Play at dawn.

It's definitely my last time going to plaza to watch that play I wrote about on my last post. I stood there, at around four o'clock, talking with my sister about how sick the play sounded like. But you know, I suppose it wasn't that bad that I had to go home immediately. I think the play went on for an hour, so I actually stood there yawning and talking with Hannah and her boyfriend, Christian. I suppose I can say I survived. I wasn't the only one yawning there either, the others were sleeping. o.o

I forgot to mention, it was my mom's birthday yesterday! That's also one of the reasons why  there were many people around yesterday.
Yeah, we sat around, 'cause we were actually planning to going to plaza.  We were waiting on my cousins (Vincent, Ralph, and Karl), since they were asked to go somewhere. Anyway, we went as they came back (which I wrote about here).
According to my previous post, we watched horror movies. Only Amille was the one who got some sleep. We left at around four o'clock, and my other cousins were fast asleep.
Yeah, right here we were waiting for mom. It didn't seem like it was so early in the morning at all. It felt more like it was just around eight o'clock (because of the number of people around and the traffic).
(1) My aunt (Laurie, Kervey, and Vincent's mom), (2) my mom, and (3&4) Hannah Christian.
Here you'll see that we were there from the dark morning, passing through sunrise, and to the shining morning.
(1) Laurie and Amille fell asleep at times, (2) but Christian and Hannah didn't. (3) Fully charged, I suppose? (4) Anyway, you can see how many people there were. :))
Know what? I saw something new today. Fireworks in daylight! I mean... it doesn't look as pretty as it does during night time. But anyway, there is always a first time, I suppose? :))

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. :))
