A Great Day on Thursday..

I didn't know it was already quarter to 6am... Too late for my 7:30am class. But I felt the urge to make it through. But I felt horrible as I've been stranded on the traffic for almost an hour. And I thought I'll be having another mark of absent. I am not afraid of having another one, but I didn't want to learn nothing today from Mam Mariano's lessons. So while waiting for the FX to move due traffic, I told myself; "Hey, I need to make it. If she's inside the class already, I should ask her to let me come in. I'll tell her it's okay if she marked me absent, I just don't want to learn nothing."

It was already 8am. But I did not want to lose all my hope. I almost ran. And I've seen a classmate heading downstairs to photocopy a material. He said, "Bilisan mo, nagpapapasok pa si Mam."

I arrived a few minutes after her. She's already inside the room. I was outside. Glancing at my classmates,and they were actually staring at me. Then I smiled to our prof. Her eyes widened, but she's smiling. Guess she had a good mood today. She told me, "Once you are marked absent, it couldn't be changed. Go on and enter." And it was such a relief.

Then afterwards, I find myself reciting (actually rapping) this poem with my classmates:

Folks are queer
As they can be
Always saying don't to me
Don't do this
or don't do that
Don't annoy or tease the cat
Don't throw stones
or climb the tree
Don't play in the road, Oh gee!
Seems to me when I want to play
Don't is all that they can say.
Don't shout so or make a noise
Don't play with those naughty boys
Don't eat candy, Don't eat pie.
Don't you laugh or don't you cry.
Don't stand or don't you fall
Don't do anything at all
Seems to me both night and day
Don't is all that they can say.
I found myself having fun. I'm really glad I haven't missed it. The next thing happened was taking-up a quiz in Philippine Literature. And it was kinda' freaking that I knew all the answers that I think there is a possibility that I can have a perfect score.. (well, pag nangyari yon.. magpapanobena ako..harhar)^__^

hello :) hopped to your site from my friend, benedict :) anyway, about the school thing, I'm glad you're positive about still getting in even if the prof's inside. that must prove you're really into serious studying. :)

take care :)
