My words are slurred and twisted.

Day 1\

My first IDeA 1 and I feel so scared, in fact we are team a and there is 75% chance that we'll debate against Xavier or Southridge. Haha. And we actually did, I was partially happy because I was sharing the same place with "hot" guy, "white guy" and a new one "yellow" guy. Haha. Talk about code names. One of the most important event in my whole debating life, I actually came close to beating one of the Xaviers. Haha. I'm happy. Vinny was our Adj, Vinny nanaman. He said if I actually said why it was a need and what is in status quo, we would've won pero stupid me, too late to realize I should've said that. Super kaba pero at the end of the day, masaya naman. nakita ko na si "Gary" eh. Haha. Si gary ang SNAIL ni spongebob. STC B broke! Yey! They broke 2nd next to Xavier A (the Poon - Chen tandem).

Day 2

Public speaking! It went well, though I didn't break. Go Ate Just! She broke and went against Miriam and Woodrose. Woodrose won but Ate Just, I'm so freakin' proud of you! All hail LINDSAY LOHAN! Didn't see gary, he didn't break. So did I, anyway I was so near to all his rooms. He even passed by seconds as in seconds before I started with my speech and I blew it. Haha. Apparently, he is not a good inspiration for me; That was second round of yesterday. Haha. I'm ready and I want to PSDC. If I'm fortunate enough I will, but if I'm not, I won't.

Actually 8 days was freakin' hell for me excluding the fact that it really is considered hell week for Theresians. Probably debaters are considered "hell-er?". Try one week of non-stop harsh training and pure pressure, it was really hard. Anyway, I'm trying to dig everything that happened to me for the past 10 days.

21st of September:

It was a freakin' creepy night, talk about staying in the cemetery past 12. It was really creepy, it was very dark and very cold and it was the night of the freakin' Fall Out Boy concert. It was hard for me to take in, considering the fact they're my freakin' favorite band. I had nothing to do but freakin' shut up.

22nd of September:

I think it was the Ateneo-UST game. Well, go Ateneo! You can beat La Salle.

23rd of September:

Try starting it with the first day of purely strict training for IDeA 1. We kept practicing our speaker roles and we matter load every possible moment. I am so freakin' unfocused. I can't actually balance my time but I know I have to, I'm trying my freakin' best and I think it's not enough.

24th of September:

Again, another debate training and the start of my official "meet-hot-guy-in-just-...-days" countdown. So far I have 4 days of waiting to do and 4 days of non-stop strict training.

25th of September:

The countdown continues. Haha. And the training is freakin' hard and I'm nervous to death.

26th of September:

The countdown still continues with just 2 more days to wait. I can feel more and more pressure and we have harder training.

27th of September:

SEG + training, so we spent 5 to 6 hours training and it was worth it. I think I just had my best prime speech so far. Mainly because it was organized and I like the motion. Go Ateneo, they won! Boo La Salle!

28th of September:

Woot! The last day of training. I feel the kaba. Haha. I believe in you Analiza and I love our last debate. We liked the motion because a lot of things popped out of our heads. I just hope motions are current events. I'm freakin' feeling the butterflies fluttering. Haha.

Tomorrow is actually the start of IDeA 1 and I'm really nervous.

I love Fall Out Boy but seeing them makes no effin' difference. I love their music not their faces (LOL. So not true! But I do love their music more.) So I'd rather sit back at home and listen to fall out boy (honestly, I have nothing. I'm broke and I still have a lot of catching up to do.)

Talk about bitterness.

And besides I have a lot of things to do and I have a lot of things to pay.

I'll be this bitter for 2 straight day. Today and tomorrow. LOL.

It's been a month since I first had a crush on him. :D

First month na!!! Sobrang kinikilig ako pag inaalala ko yung boses mo kahit hindi maganda. LOL.

Duh! They're way, way better than UP!

I should be rooting for Ateneo except I know deep down that they're hopeless on this side of the competition.

Salinggawi pa din!!!

Ateneo, WIN OR LOSE ITS THE SCHOOL I CHOOSE! Go Ateneo! Sorry you just don't stand any chance, pero I love you!

Sobrang sabaw na ako. Una, kasi sobrang daming exams, second is nagcatch-up ako sa mga namiss kong lessons. I'm trying to be a responsible student. Sobrang dami kong pinagkaabalahan this week na hindi na ako ngkaron ng chance to blog. Pero it was a fun week sa debate trainings, sa palihan, sa Soc. Sci. dahil sa 300 tpos, Religion dahil sa what a girl wants. Basta this was a fun week. Sorry sa aking taglishness sobrang sabaw na tlga ako and i have to study pa. I have to make my reaction paper pero buti na lang tapos na ako sa thematic reflection ko for September. Malay ko ba na di pa ako dapat mgsubmit non. Sorry. Saturday is TV day pero nagbasa ako ng book for term paper. Nanood ako ng Youth Voice kasi finals ng NAsH-DC between Xavier A vs. Woodrose C ata? I have no idea. So parang tawang tawa ako kasi sobrang unpredictable yung result ng debate kasi parehong nagkamali ung teams pero mas magaling talaga ung Xavier A. sobrang natatawa tlga ako kasi nakita ko si white guy at si hot guy! hahaha. Ang hot nila!

I can never be the same girl that I used to be.

Oo Ate EA, he raped me. Haha. Joke.

Oo Ate Nica, dahil sa kanya I'm never the same. Haha.

I'm happy.

Crap! I was watching the NASHCD semi-finals between Woodrose and CSA. It was average compared to how Xavier debated. They had the same motion and I enjoyed watching Xavier's more that Woodrose and CSA's.

I'm happy. Aside from the fact that I saw my face, I saw hot guy's face too! Haha.

2-3 weeks from now, we'll be having our 3rd competition which is the idea 1. That is why in the coming weeks, we have our training again. Haha.

As of this moment, I am on a matterloading process.

I saw the Southridge page and i am amazed at how they train. No wonder they are always close to winning. It's understandable, no team can beat the Xavier gang yet.

Simple lang, ang saya, ang lunkot, ang emo, ang loser. 5 days I'll never forget kahit ilang NAsH-DC at competition man ang puntahan namin.

We didn't win. Yes, but we earned something not any trophy or medal or award or even money can replace.

Some seek great change in places and through years but what they don’t know and what life keeps as a mystery is the great change that could happen in a short while even in a span of five great days. ♥

I don't want to go back to the way things really are. I mean I love my La Salle routine, compared to my STC routine. I love the debate team though some pushed me to break down. I found some new crushes. I found real great friends and I was trusted by my teammates of some of their secrets which I'll definitely keep 'till the day I die.

To my debate teammates, I LOVE YOU guys! We have a great year to look forward to!

Drain!

I feel stupid, on the second thought, I am stupid.

Anyway, gone for 3 days, don't ask. Debate.

Ang fun kaso ang sakit sa ulo. Haha.
