It's been a while since I last blogged. I'm busy this time! I really am. And it's basically school work and college applications. We have group activities that's as good as a project. (Wait, was my grammar correct? I swear Brain Train changed my view on this).

Speaking of Brain Train, today was our real last day! And it's the simulations. We took it from 1-5:30PM. Let me tell you, it's not about the difficulty, it's the time pressure! I wasn't able to finish Math and Science. Ugh. I don't know if it's a good or a bad thing since it's a right minus wrong type of test. I actually thought 4 hours is a long time, but when you're taking the test, it goes by so fast. At least I had a feel of what the actual UPCAT will be like. The results will be released next week. Hoping for the best!

For the UPCAT thing, I received my test permit. I thought I'd be in the morning session but turns out I'll be taking it in the afternoon. I really wanted it to be in the morning since. . . it just feels like I'll be more awake in the morning. :(

Soooo, right now, I'm hell busy with Physics, we're going to make a video in EK! Awwyeah. But uhh, I'm kinda the leader and I'm really not the leader-type but I'm trying my best to make this work. Crossing fingers for this!

I want to share this Adele song, One and Only. ♥ I'M LOVING ADELE!

How do I start this post?

Today was our last review day on a weekday, which means the last day of me commuting! Not really permanently, but I'm still so relieved and proud at the same time because I survived. I'm shallow like that. For the review, we had a new teacher in Chemistry, Miss Mich. She is a walking periodic table. She wrote the whole thing with only a chalk and her awesome brain. Then we had Biology with Miss Brown. Genetics is complicated in a good way, in my opinion. Then it was Sir Marco's last day with us. Uhh, the green jokes? I don't get it. Haha. Moving on..

Today was also the release of the sections for this school year. Long story cut short: Christine, Vielka, and Denise are in Chofu, Michelle and Hanna are in Nakatsu. And I'm all alone in Miyazaki. FUN FUN FUN. So I'm pretty sad/angry that I didn't have a close friend for a classmate, especially that's it the last year in high school. But I also thought maybe this is a challenge for me to socialize with people other than my friends. I'll try.

Our section is also kind of a powerhouse. I like that thought but it makes me feel uncomfortable because it's intimidating. I guess that's one thing I like about my section. Sorta.

I'll take this whole thing as a challenge and come out of it strong. I guess God did this for a reason. :)

HINGANG MALALIM!
Tuesday, May 24, 2011

Brain Train started yesterday! And the reason why I'm blogging about it today is that because I'm hell tired yesterday. Anyways, I'm having fun so far! Plus I'm starting to appreciate MATH. Oh my, did I just say that? Brain Train changed my point of view in Math in two days. Awesome.

About yesterday..
Well, I didn't like it. The whole thing came to me as a shock. You know, when you're on vacation and then suddenly one day all these formulas came rushing again and you have no idea how to do it because your mind is blank and all that. So I could say that yesterday was a time for refreshing my memories. And I got tired from all that refreshing. Especially Chemistry! Ugh, formulas. Our teacher there is pretty cool, Sir Marco, a Chemical Engineering graduate. But Math is awesome, and mainly because of the teacher who is Sir Erwin. He is the funniest teacher ever! He has this word, Ju Tsu? I don't know if that's how it's spelled, but it sounds like that. He's the most un-boring teacher I've had. The best part is, I learn through the techniques he taught us. In that moment, I realized how much easier Math is from Chemistry (I also have Kumon to thank for this). Okay, I only mean Algebra, not really Math as a whole. But yeah, it's a step up. Yesterday's so frustrating, I don't know, bad vibes? Or maybe because it was pure Science and Math?

Today's a different story..
For one, it's Sir Erwin's last day with us. Awww. He's transferring to the other BT center in Batangas. We did the same thing today, all Math and Science and we had a new teacher, Sir Randy. He was good and entertaining as well, except for the part where he called the attention of some CDBS students for being noisy. Ugh. He kinda has this favoritism with Gaston which is very funny because he calls him "Mr. Velarde". This day's better than yesterday, my brain is finally working again.

Uhh, so I got tired of typing. Forgive me if I don't update much about our review, I usually end up tired from all the studying and commuting I did (and will be doing). Oh! I'm getting the hang of commuting alone. Yay for me! :)
