And it’s my Birthday!
When I woke up early in the morning, I immediately grabbed my phone to check those people who remembered my birthday. There are few maybe because it’s still early in the morning. I really expected some people, but no one of those greeted me, and I felt sad. I felt bad that I expected for them more than my family. And I realized, I may forget my birthday, my family but my family for
sure won’t forget me. That’s a sort of realization J Of course my friends greeted me, the first ones were Charlene, Romela and Rowee (she greeted me on Facebook early in the morning, but I just read it when I logged on late in the morning)
I can’t stay here of course. I remembered that I should go to school early because that was the agreement given to us by our Play Director. I took a bath, put on my clothes since its washday; I can wear civilian clothes not the school uniform. I fixed myself, brushed my teeth and everything.
I got my bag, the unfinished props material, for the background setting of our play, which I had started last night. I was ready and I headed to school. Our campus is just a stone throw away from our dorm. While walking, I worked it on my mind that maybe few or no one will greet me from my classmates. I will have only three subjects for this morning, philosophy, aesthetics and psychology (I supposed we will not have our psychology because we might use the time for making the other props and rehearse for the play).
I arrived at the room, there were just few people. When I arrived they asked if I had finished my task I said not yet because I don’t know what colors I should use to make it look scary. Our first subject will be starting at 8 am. Yeah no one greeted me still but when Nelly (a new friend) came she immediately greeted me a happy birthday and so others who heard it, did. Later, we started our philosophy class. We just had our debate. It was Science vs. Philosophy. And I am on the Science team. I had fun during the debate because the debate was far better than before. Before it’s like there’s no one who would like to speak but now, yes! Everyone would like to! It was a fun debate I can say. And the score was Science team 1.19 and Philosophy team 1.2. In short it’s a tie.
They said we don’t have our next subject because we were excused by our professor in Psychology. After our philosophy class, we worked on our props we were almost finished applying colors to the props when our Aesthetics professor came in he seemed to be shocked on what he had seen. Everyone was very busy, the area was messed up. Then he went out. For a while we have hidden our works to be done. Few of my classmates were worried thinking that our professor was angry. I don’t know what happened in that matter because the next thing I knew we were discussing in Aesthetics regarding our project for the Finals. After the discussion we were dismissed and back to the unfinished businesses. We continued on our props but just few touch-ups and were done. Our Psychology Prof came in to check us. She had seen my work she said I’m gifted well that’s a compliment I think! Ha-ha! I heard my phone. There were messages. Most of them were greetings. I was really shocked about one message! It is my crush who greeted me via Facebook. I am really happy about that I was giggling for a long time inside the classroom that’s why I went out to pour my feelings. I can’t wait to log on my Facebook Account to give a reply. Next thing I knew I was busy there in the Internet Café , Of course I replied my crush a simple thank you with a big smile he just didn’t know how happy I am. I was busy Uploading photos and making fun of them. It’s funny because I uploaded photos during our general rehearsal for the HATAW (Mass demonstration) and I named the album as “sa Baguio (in Baguio)” even if we were not in Baguio that time. It just looked like we were there because we were wearing jackets and everything like sun heat protection but we used those intended for Cold times that why it turned out that we were in Baguio. Another thing is we have thrown comments that made it look like we really went there but I just dealt with my friend that we should make it look like we actually gone there. And that made me laugh a lot. After 1 hour of staying at the Café I went home almost 12pm. I hurried because I need to accomplish some other things before 1pm. I went to LCC and bought biscuits and ice cream. I also got a letter printed as well as my report and also 4 identical pictures as requested by my classmate and went to school before 1pm. Our play will be starting at 3pm. And it was just almost 2hours left! So we hurried. We were shocked because we would be the 1st presenters! We thought we were the 5th one. And that made us move as fast as we could. I helped in finishing the other needed materials for the play. A job well done I think so. We finished it before 3pm and we even got the guts to have picture taking huh! With all the pressure and unpreparedness!
I went to the hall to take a seat and get ready for the play even though I am just one of the audiences. The program started almost 4pm! Whooa! Filipino time! We were the 1st presenter, the play went smoothly and it’s really a funny one. I really laughed at our play. Of course what will you expect! It’s a Romantic Comedy. I think I could destroy my seat laughing there out loud. After our play, it was a job well done. We were all relieved knowing that it has been done already. But there are still 3 presenters. I need to watch it, to see who will win. And it turned out that if we were unprepared the other presenters were far worst! But to the last presenter I felt nervous because they were prepared seeing those props stuffs! But when they presented I felt disappointed the same as what the judge said, their play was irrelevant. I almost forgot that for our intermission number, the boys in our class will be having a dance number as girls in the tune of Barbie Girl.
Ate Dorothy kept on texting me to go to the center. Somehow I feel like not going and I replied and replied that I’m not sure if I can’t come but she kept on insisting saying it ok just come here. I don’t really know what’s going on me. , I smelled something fishy. Maybe there is a surprise or what because she won’t keep on asking me if there is none. As the day passed by I received a lot of messages, greetings rather from old and new friends. It feels great knowing that somebody remembered it’s your birthday. As the last play went through, I think our play will win that’s why I just went to the center to see ate Dorothy. On the way she called me she asked if we were finished I said no but I didn’t say that I’m on the way. On the jeep I saw Princess and her classmates. Arcel (former classmate) greeted me. Well I regret it that I didn’t thanked back.
As I was entering the center I saw some friends in the terrace. And wow I feel like yeah my feeling is right. As I went on the 2nd floor I saw Kuya Josh and I looked for Ate dortx .. yeah they greeted me. And introduced me to the foods! I was really shocked! I didn’t expect it would be like this. I kept on saying it is shameful thinking that they gosh! Still made their selves busy preparing those stuffs. But maybe deep inside that’s just how I express my state of being touched.
Minutes later Charlene and Romela arrived and I had hidden at the cr. Even though I was seen already. so foolish ne~
I am so happy spending such time with such kind and adorable persons. I am so blessed lord god! Tnx.
Kuya wilx prayed for us. God, thank you for these people. And Kuya Nathan prayed for the food. Were just a small group there but the atmosphere is so wow happy and jolly. They sang birthday song my gosh I am so overwhelmed. We kept on laughing while eating because they kept on saying! “hey! Girls first!” but they already started eating. He he. I ate carefully knowing that the majority there are boys I might do some foolishness. Ha-ha... so happy that in that they I just can see wide smiles approaching.. I thought I don’t deserve this. he he
Next top we just initiated on making the backdraft. But there is nothing we can do so we just declined. Before 10 we went home. And we were on a hurry because its already quarter to 10. Rowee texted me to pass by but we couldn’t because of the time! She texted me that she was supposed to give me something, I said it’s alright it won’t vanish anyway.
