hot gym+stupid schedule=migraine

A while ago...well more on like yesterday, we (as in the whole st. paul community) watched this cultural show. The performers were good but i didn't really appreciate the show because of the following reasons:
first reason: GRABE ang init! as in super...its like being baked in the oven. When I think about my st. scho days, I am usually one of those people who'd complain about the gym being hot...scholasticans, guess what!? may mas mainit pa na gym and that's st paul qc's gym!!!! super!!!!
second reason: our schedule for the day was super sabog. Yesterday it was announced that it will be shortened period. Tapos biglang binawi..everyone who watched the 1-2 o clock show will resume regular classes after the show. Tapos binago nanaman ulit..which is which!?
third reason: I developed a major migraine...because of the heat and then biglang air con, my head hurts badly. I felt like I was going to faint if I didn't get the heck out of that gym. Even Ms. Jo took pity on me when she saw me going out of the gym fanning and wiping away perspiration...i heard her tell manong someone: "hindi niya sigyro kinaya init at kelangan niya lumabas" well, it was true! partly, because I went to the cafeteria to buy ice cold drink to ward off the feeling of faintness...

Lesson learned? well yes, somehow, I learned a few things from the show. One of them is that Philippines is a rich country..not just in agriculture and tourist spots and definitely not money...but we are rich in colorful and imaginative culture. We have a lot of dances, festivals and such that are rarely found in other countries. Yes, although Philippines is a third world country (as they say) I still love it to bits.

blogtasan

so i was doing this "blogtasan" thing kanina sa school. Honestly, I am still pissed off about it. People might think that its not really a big deal...but if you were in my place what would you think?

For the whole weekend, everytime this blogtasan comes up my blood gets boiling. I am irritated and I felt violated of my own right to choose whether or not I am joining this competition. First, our organization president didn't ask me if I wanted to join. She just placed my name and a few days before the competition, I got surprised that I am in this competition. Damn it! I have many things to worry about. What's so frustrating about it is that the competition day collides with my swimming trainings. The org president didn't even bother asking kung may naka schedule ako na activities for that day. She knows very well that there are trainings every Mondays. The second most frustrating is that the whole block knows that I have a hard time expressing myself in Filipino and she signed me up for a competition that clearly yells "FILIPINO LANGUAGE MUST BE USED TO EXPRESS YOUR THOUGHTS" ARGH!!! its not like im a transferee or something that she didn't know about this minor detail about me.

Maybe the reason why she placed me in this competition is because when it comes to issues, I am very much opinionated and I think deeply about these things. But come on, those subjects are in ENGLISH...and sabihin natin na Filipino subject siya, it is something that I would easily understand and I don't need to ask around what's this and what's that?

Nakakafrustrate grabe. I was so helpless. I was to choose between this blogtasan or the swimming training. In the end, I chose the blogtasan because poor Myrene will be left alone if I don't show up. Pero I wans't able to concentrate on the competition because I was worried about my team. I know Mel is there and I trust her with the team...but hey, I am the team captain so I guess its normal that I get worried about them. Mel is still trying the ropes on the whole "Jump after ____ because pinupulikat siya" That's my whole worry!!! I know Mel will do her best but if something happens ako ang lagot because I am the team captain, I called for the training and I myself wasn't even there. Damn this whole situation.

I just hope this would not happen again....
