finally free!!!!
i am officially free of the-subject-that’s-giving-me-a-headache ES!
the finals for this subject was held yesterday, and i’m trying not to get ahead of myself. the test was fairly challenging, but i don’t want to get my hopes up. i don’t want to think that i’m going to pass that test, the results just might burst my bubble of hope.
but nonetheless, i computed for the lowest possible grade that i can get on each of the six plates that we did. i was with ate kate at mcdonald’s in farmer’s plaza that time when i tried to compute for my finals grade. to my horror, i computed a 56.66667 finals grade. (gawd, WHY am i so grade-conscious? hm…maybe it’s because i’m flunking the subject…heehee.)
after that, i computed my grade in the subject. 45% for the three long exams, 40% for the final exam, and multiply my plate average by 1.5.
to my total surprise, i got a….
64.5
AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I PASSED!!!!!!!
i’m gonna pass the subject even though i failed in the finals and in the first two exams!!!
at least, i think i would.
grrr….i don’t know if i did the right computations, but i sure hope i did. i’m not going to be able to take up several major subjects next year if i don’t scrape by ES with a tres. and the grade that i computed (64.5) is even equivalent to a 2.75! i just don’t believe it. i just can’t believe that i can pass a subject in which i failed three out of four exams. but there’s still a spark of hope inside me…
ah, what else to write?
oh, yeah! this has just been the greatest week ever! in the history of my ongoing college life!
not only am i passing tests (well, the only test that i know i passed so far this week is my third exam in ES. but what the heck.), i’m also given the chance to bond with my blockmates. well, some of them anyway.
i just love my blockmates! they’re friendly and helpful people, never snobs. and i’m very thankful to have them. i hope we’ll all stay this happy with each other forever.
aah…i’m feeling a little senti today…
and i learned a valuable lesson for this week:
you only have a bad day when you make it one.
no, seriously, i just learned that this week. as in talagang minamalas ako, pero hindi nalang ako nagrereklamo. my day (and week) would only become bad if i make it one.
imagine, dahil sa todong ulan, lagi akong minalas ngayong linggo. yung tipong nababasa yung paa ko kasi naka-tsinelas lang ako, tska yung nabasa yung pantalon ko dahil mahaba siya, tipong ganon. that’s why this week, todo suot ako ng mga capri pants after nung pants incident nung monday. (damn rain…and wala namang bagyo. ang labo talaga…)
so much has happened this week but i don’t want to elaborate kasi hahaba ‘tong entry na ‘to. ito nalang sasabihin ko before i end this:
THE CHEERDANCE COMPETITION WAS A BLAST!
kahit hindi nanalo ang UP (curse UST…), masaya parin ang aming panonood ng cheerdance compe because i got to see the better routines than the ones that i watched back in high school.
the stunts were much more dangerous, daring, and thrilling. and the synchronization of the UST, adamson, and UP dancers were amazing! i’ve never seen better routines than the ones those teams did (i meant ALL the teams…).
pero medyo bad trip nga lang at USTE pa rin ang panalo (as in pang-apat na nila ‘to in a row), pero okay lang.
UP will get them next year.
*evil laugh*

wheee… i agree with you when you said that many things happened during the week. many things happened to me too. hehehe…
i’m also very happy to be with blockmates. i almost forget the life that i had before. now, college doesn’t seem to be as difficult as i envisioned it before, with you (and other people) around. thanks for sticking with me.
