I am stressed.No, make that STRESSED.

So stressed. I can't even stress it in words. Stress. Stress. Stress. Stress. How's that? I thought by changing the font color of my title, I would, in any way, feel cheery. Naaaaaaaaaaaaaat.

Proofs that I'm stressed:
-I don't care. In all aspect of my life.
-I'm grumpy. Over the top grumpy.
-I shout at people though they asked me in a very polite and decent way.
-I skipped lunch to cram Oral Defense and other projects for a week.
-My hair's falling [My personal sign of stress]
-No time to communicate. Even with my friends. So wrong.
-Late night cramming. Nothing beats seeing my YM overflowing with Junior Theresians with busy signs attatched before their names and deathfying threats as stats. I should know. I did the same. Funny yet depressing stat messages from my friends:
+"Ang may alam lang sa pericope ang may karapatang mag chat sa akin."
+"Wag na wag mong subukang pindutin ang pangalan ko sa YM mo kung ayaw mong mamatay ng maaga."
+"Gusto kong matulog ng maaga, hindi umaga!"
+"Tuwang tuwa ba ang STC na pinapahirapan tayo ng ganito?! [Insert cuss here] naman oh."
+"Kasing itim na ng eyebags ko ang budhi ni [insert teacher's name here]" <-- Kakaisip ko lang. I'll use it someday. :))

-I've literally spent 12 hours in front of the computer the past 3 days.
-I've been caught sleeping in class AGAIN this week. [Ms Calero: MIN! WAKE UP!] The eff.
-I've gone to the extent of needing calming tools. Thanks to Gian DL for my 'cramming/ stress song': Big Me-Foo Fighters. It IS actually effective. Thanks Gi!
-There's been a lot of instances where I just literally stop, keep still and just feel as though I'm ready to burst just thinking of all the things needed to be done.

---------Whatever. Let's move on. My head hurts. Labo. Sorry.

Tuesday. PE Period. Basketball.
Green Team aka My Team is composed of: Me, Avery, Nadine F, Czare, and Dorilie.
Pink Team aka Our Opponent is composed of: Marge, Magic, Raz, Mariza, Bea and Karla.

-It was plain funny. I was laughing so hard while running. We were literally like headless chickens. We don't know what's going on. I watch basketball. I just don't do it. Wherever the ball lands, we'll all run at that spot and take hold of the ball. As how Mrs.De Lemos would put it, "Para kayong nag aagawang buko! Hay nako!" Sorry naman kung hindi kami athletic. Me and Avery even tried reasoning out that girls doesn't have 'basketball gene' in our system.
-Karla was fouled by Nadine F! She got really hurt but of course, stayed 'til the end of the game.
-All you can hear are high pitched, teenage girl screams. And it doesn't even come from the audience. It comes from the players.
-We're always called for Travelling. Especially ME.

*I, running.*

Mrs.DL: *Whistle blows* Travelling!

Min: *walks to Ms* ANO BA YUN?!?!

Ms.DL: I-dribble mo yung bola kasi!

Min: *dribbles the ball in front of her*

Mrs.DL: Ay nako Carmina! *kamot ulo*

-Natawa naman ako. Pag ako kausap ni Ms, napapakamot nalang siya parati ng ulo.
-Avery's shot earned us 2 points! Yeah yuh. Non stop dancing in the court. Haha.
-But of course, Ms.Mythical 5 is in the Pink Team, therefore, they beat us. [4-8]
-Who was in the zone? Marge! Haha! Competitive! :))
-OH, OH, OH! I was able to shoot! Therefore the added 2 points! Hahahahaha! Euphoria talaga! Fastbreak daw[Whatever that is]. Pero everyone was laughing at me. Cause everytime I dribble the ball, I scream daw. NOT TRUE! Whatever, at least I did it. =))
-Now I'm hooked on basketball! I wanna play basketball again! If you wanna play ball, call me! :))

This happened last week but it's too important to just be forgotten and burried in our memories. Last Jan 18 was Avery's 15th Birthday. Yehey! And you're right, the 'Ate' days are over. But just wait, on May 17, get used to calling me Ate again. Haha!

This was supposed to be a surprise but since Avery brought up the idea of us surprising her oon her special day, well, might at least say it. The plan was simple. Eat out. But company arrived and I don't know if it made it worse or great. But of course, for Marge and Gian A, it was the latter. Haha. We [Me, Marge& Cel] went to Ice Cream House in Banawe after class and chilled. But in no time, boredom and hunger got to us which forced us to hop on to Jollibaboy to eat. ATENEO-STC. Right Marge and Cel? Haha. What happened after? Whutever. I can't remember.

Moving on...

We all went to Ice Cream House. Talked, laughed, danced, sang, and laughed MORE 'til 7pm. Don't forget Karla's 'pizza cake' for Avery. Hahaha.

Why are people always tend to assume things? WHY? I don't get it. Ok, maybe if they ask and I say NO, I think they should stop at that point and drop the subject. I've been a victim of that lately.

Yesterday, while waiting for UP to arrive in the IMC, we watched Centerstage to keep us Junior Students sane. It's about ballet.

Karla: Diba nag ballet ka?

Min: Hindi.

Karla: WEH? Hindi nga.

Min: Hindi nga. Swear.

Karla: Mukha kasi eh.

This isn't the first time I've been thought of as a bellerina. Or a gymnast. There was this one time, during Palihan, they pulled me out from class along with my ballerina classmates namely, Cy, Mimi, Vane, and Nats. Turns out, we will dance. I violently protested of course.

Min: Why ME?? Lahat kaya sila ballerinas!!!

Kat: Eh nag ballet ka rin naman eh!

Min: Sino nagsabi?! I don't wanna dance frickin' ballet!!

*I walk out*

I am NOT a ballerina. I have no grudges against ballerinas but I'm just not. Ok?

Another absurd identity that people are throwing at me is being an emcee. This past few weeks, Mrs.Sacdalan announces non stop in the PA System the audtion dates for emcees for Bandfest. Surprisingly, most in the classroom was asking me to audition. Despite the persuation they did, I didn't audition. And the results came in just yesterday. Gabrielle got in! Yehey. But after announcing, they seem to be blaming me for not auditioning. Epal. Haha. It's MY choice ok? I have my reasons. I'm part of the Bandfest Committee so with that, it's given that I'm gonna be really busy during Feb 8. And being an emcee on top of that would really be difficult. I promise, I'll try considering of trying out next year.

This Palihan so far is the most senseless one I’ve had since First Year. Everyone felt it. I can tell. They prepared this set of games that will be played by students according to their class numbers. Of course, I had the most suckish one. Class nos. 1-10 will reenact anything Sir R says. It sucks so bad, I won’t re-tell the story anymore.

So this day quickly turned out to be a bonding time with my friends. Cel, Gian, Marge, Avery, Dorilie, Karla and many more. Laughed and talked our hearts out. Pero ito talaga panalo eh.

Dori: Nanood ako ng Ellen isang araw, guest si Celine Dion. Eh ang laki ng diamante niya sa singsing. Sinabi ni Ellen, ‘Magkano yan?’

Min: So nagtatagalog si Ellen?

Dori: HAHAHA!! Hindii! Siyempre English!

Min: Sabi mo kaya sasbi ni Ellen, ‘Magkano yan?’ Kausapin ko kaya ng Tagalog yun minsan. Hahahaha!

Dori: Tinuruan yun ni Charise Pempengco! Hahaha!

Hahaha. In the middle of boring-ness, Me and Dors suddenly had this sudden urge to speak in English with this annoying slang. You know, how Paris Hilton talks per say.

“Like OH MY GAWDD what the hell is wrong with yewww?? I’m like gonna call the police now!!”

Being with my Flowerpot is the best. Woo! I Love You Dors :)

Been planning for Avery’s 15th birthday tomorrow. We’re panicking cause we don’t have an idea what the hell she wants. Haha.

No matter what Mrs.Blanco does, no matter how much effort she exerts, no matter how hard she thinks about it, and no matter how much she thinks she's got it right this time, she's wrong. She will never, ever find a way of formulating a decent seating arrangement. No matter what she does, she will never stop iii3's madness. Stop trying too much Ms. We're born to cause riot.

Let's take a look shall we? Now, I'm seated beside Charmagne and Krizzia. Still, I am retained in the front row. But I've been upgraded! I think. I'm not in the aisle anymore! I've passed that dreadful seat to Krizzia. But does that prove to all of you how OUT OF CONTROL I am? Hahaha. Even Cel was transferred to 1st row. Goodluck texting, Cel. Haha.

Is it me or does bad luck follow me? Not only me. Even Marge, Cel and Avery. This week, we've all been caught sleeping during class. It's funny, actually. Hahaha. In my instance, I was caught during, what else, Advance Algebra pd. I was already half-asleep when all of a sudden, I heard Mrs.Blanco's voice shouting, 'MIN! What is the coordinates of this point?'[Yeah, another highlight. MRS.BLANCO CALLS ME 'Min' now. Hahaha.]. I quickly jerked from my seat and in a very diplomatic way, complete with the blank face, uttered, 'Uhh.......' So humiliating. I mean, come on. Those are coordinates. Even froshies can answer that. But hello. I just woke up! So I composed myself and answered correctly after 3 minutes or so of 'Uhh..'. Worse part? Mrs.Alcabedas, i think or Sr.Jo was way behind the classroom evaluating. Greeaat.

^Still in front row. Raaaar.

^DORI!

^HAHAHAHA!! Boredom caused this!

UPDATE ON MIN BUENVIAJE'S BORING LIFE:
