Early Christmas Bonus

This post will not expose my 13th month bonus nor my early Christmas gift. It will expose my hidden secret which is…. Oops, sorry, not that one. So yeah, I have my early Christmas bonus right here in front of me; I received it awhile ago.

Grades got released and I became excited to know mine. These grades will reflect all my hard works for the past semester: those sleepless nights, torn books, and lesser social life.  And I’m hoping, that these grades will also help me push forward to do more for the next semester. Though I know the next semesters would be much harder compared to the past ones.

First off, I waited for my subjects to turn blue. To explain it further, we’re waiting for them to turn blue because that’ll mean that we passed the course. If it turned black, sorry but you failed. Honestly, I’m afraid to encounter that. So all the subjects turned blue and now the time has come for me. I opened the school’s website, logged in and clicked the tab that’ll show my grades. After seconds of waiting… Oh yes, I made it. I cried and cried until I succeed. *laughs* just kidding, I didn’t do that. I know there are still more challenges to come and this past semester is just one of them. So I focused my eye to each and every numbers I see on the screen. I looked down at my TWA and that made my day. Scholarship shall stay and money just got saved. More money for other purposes. That’s terrific don’t you think?

So I don’t like to detail my grades, nor show it to anyone. I just want to thank God for this another blessing. You know, surviving the 2nd semester is not a joke. That’s why I’m proud and thankful.

1 and a half week before Christmas and I’m here smiling in front of a machine. This blessing just overtook the fact that I’ll have two movies for tomorrow. Well, I don’t think that was even necessary but yeah, see you 3rd semester.

Once again, thank you Lord God for everything. For helping me succeed the past semester and for giving me a good life.

PS. What’s for dinner?

The Near End

It’s 10:45 PM here and I’m sitting in front of a white concrete chair. But of course by the time you read this, maybe I’m there at my school trying to finish what I started by completely covering the circles of the answer sheet with the black color coming from a number 2 yellow pencil. I don’t even know if I’ll have a hard time tomorrow or not, one thing is for sure, I just want this sem to end.

You can say that I wrote this one because I’m procrastinating, well yes, you’re right. I’m just tired of reading the same notes over and over again. I’m not an irresponsible student but I think I’ve known enough information already. And maybe, this time is the time for me to relax my mind and rest well. I don’t want to put my body down just because of these exams.

Well the first day of exams did not go well. I hated everything about our Science exam because all the questions that appeared on the exam were not included in our lessons. Questions were related but not in our coverage. I am still disappointed up to now, I don’t know what to do. Still, I think I did enough to get a desirable grade on the said subject. After that was our exam for IT. It was all basic and I don’t have any problem with that. I do think that I’ll get something good on that. But still the SCI one destroyed my mood.

The second day was fine. English exam was hard but still manageable.

The third day (today) made my week. It was our Accounting exam and it gave me some kind of light that tells me that I’ll get something nice for my efforts. How I wish my efforts would pay off.

To add, I’m still thinking if I shaded the circles correctly. I don’t want to commit a mistake just because of my carelessness. Oh machine, please don’t fail or else I will. I’m trying to maintain a scholarship so please. PLEASE DON’T GO GO GO GO, ooops sorry, I just remembered something; that something is the fact that Mike Posner will come to the Philippines tomorrow (FRIDAY).

SO RIGHT NOW, I’m on the vacation mode. I’m not that ecstatic for tomorrow’s exam. Though I’m excited for our Christmas vacation, I still don’t have some plans for my vacation. Aside from the fact that I’ll watch some movies and some theatrical plays, I’m still staring at a blank sheet of paper. I want a getaway, I want to go to a place where I can unwind and relax. I did my part as a student and now time to pay my efforts. I have to pay myself. Vacation is for enjoyment; that’s what I want.

So yeah, tomorrow is our last finals exam. I’m done for tonight, and I’m ready for tomorrow.

P.S. I miss playing with my band. I do miss tearing my voice up and destroying eardrums. How I wish we can all unite once again. College works turned the GreenScene into silent mode. This is not the end anyway…
