Goodbye, hallo!
There's always something terribly horribly bad about someone leaving for good. There's always something awesomely great about someone coming back from a for-good trip. There's really no room for the UPCAT blah in this overly-dramatic paragraph, so I'll just tell you that I'll be talking about that too.
Wellll... Maybe it was around 2 (Or was it just 1?) week ago, I was strolling around the grocery, trying to not make the fact that I was wearing the AC uniform seem so obvious, when I bumped into OMGAlexa. I don't know how to explain it, but it really is like seeing someone's ghost.
SCENE!
Jamie: *spots group of Assumptionistas, then identifies two of 'em as Martha and Kristine*
The Group + girlnotinACuniform: *hanging out by the freezers*
Jamie: *GRABSQUEEZEs Kristine's tushy*
The Group: OH HEY THERES!
Alexa/girlnotinACuniform: *waves*
Jamie: AHBUTAHWAITYOU'REINA-
CUT!
That probably only makes sense to me. Sorry.
So yeah! It was a way awesome treat~ Then I had to leave for dinner. Dinner with Josu!
(Uhm, basically he's just a special Spanish boy that my sister met when she was off "studying" in Germany.)
Lemme just summarize how I feel about Josu: I've heard craploads of stories about him, and I pretty much might compare him to every other guy that my sister shall date in her lifetime because he's pretty coo'. Can't speak REALLY good english (Making simple stories assume the form of a wesleeptodream lj entry) but he's very very nice.
You say: NICE!? Give us a better description, woman!
I dunno. I keep saying that he's living proof of how the Philippines was colonized by the Spaniards. Minus the I keel you part of the deal.
Well anyway, it was pretty nice to have him around. He reminded me so much of my brother (JAPAN. I SHALL NEVER FORGIVE YOU IF YOU DELAY MY BROTHER'S RETURN ONE MORE TIME. GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWRHG!!!! I WANT. HIM. BACK. DAMN. IT. YOU SUCK. SUTFERKUFOERISUFJ*) and he pretty much filled half of the void. Most of the time he just made me feel like waging war against Japanland.
But then... He just left around an hour ago. He's still on Philippine soil but... it's never nice to see someone leave! There should be a law that will make people/tourist-monsters STAY in a certain country once they have made more than 5 friends. It's an anti-heartbreak rule, y'see.
So there. That was rather pointless. I never get my point across but I hope you get most of the sad bit. If not: I AM REALLY SAD BECAUSE SOMEONE WHO WAS REALLY NICE TO US IS LEAVING/LEFT AND NOW WE CAN'T GET HIM BACK. I also have to share the happy side: ALEXA WOOOOH! Don't worry, after the tests possibly unwanted attention shall all be yooours.
*Brother has been stolen by Japanese robotos. Brother is skilled in giving brain life to robotos such as printers and scanners. Brother earns $moolah$ but earns no ^happines^. Japan robotos don't give happiness.

UPCAT
I came. I crammed. I didn't suck as much as expected. Too late to say this but: The trick to the UPCAT (Since it's already very easy) is not to cram. They have special Anti-Crammer questions there that are sure to sniff all of us out. Some more tips for Sunday peeps:
1. Snacks are pretty useless. Bring a sandwich or a bag of chips and juice. That's all! Chocolates can be quite... annoying.
2. Morning: Leave home early. Afternoon: Leave home early. You'll be facing the wrath of batch A and B all at once.
3. Time? There's just enough.
4. Not good at Tagalog reading comprehension? Um...
5. RELAX.
6. Buy Chocolate Kiss's (Kisses? No idea.) cookies. Overpriced cookies ALWAYS taste better.
7. Sleep well young ones. I was feeling really tired and sleepy towards the end... so just sleep before okie?
ABOUT my UPCAT expereeeyonse
Dear UP,
Why oh why does your campus have to be so woodsy? It's so gosh-darn lovely. It makes me wonder why I even think inhaling DLSU air is a good idea. Oh UP, why won't you just send the rejection letter tomorrow? I need to get over you. *sniffles*
It might just be my slightly sheltered high school lifestyle that makes me terrified of UP students and UP life in general. Not in the way that you expect from a slightly sheltered high school girl, though. I probably won't be able to fit in well and I probably would be hated. (I cannot adapt for crap. Takes me a very long time to get the hang of the lingo and school customs. This explains why I didn't talk for a whole week during first year. I was shifting gears from Tagalog to English. Now I am slowly trying to shift from English to Tagalog. Help?)
It sounds stupid (though quite true) but I feel very inferior. I mean, they're in the school people really really want. It means they've got the goods, yo! THE GOOODS. The horriblest part is the fact that I'll be taking a talent test: SERIOUSLY?! I wouldn't mind if someone walked up to me and said "You're not academically smart. UP doesn't want you." But if someone walked up to me and said "d00d. u suxx. u think u hav talent? well dis test pr0ves you DNT!!!!!!!!!"
*weeps* I KNOW I'M NOT GETTING YOU THIS YEAR, UP. BUTWATCHOUT! WHEN I TRUSTETH MY MIGHTY REPORT CARD OF DOOM WHEN I FINISH FIRST YEAR COLLEGE, YOU WON'T HAVE THE GUTS TO REFUSE MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

The Nintendo Wii
IS COMING TO THE CABATIT HOUSEHOLD NEAAAR YOU! (Get it? My middle name's Malapit. He... he.)
QUESTIONNES!
1. How much does a Wiimote cost? Is it cheaper here or the Estados Unidos?
2. How much will it cost to get the Wii modified? Where?
3. How much arm pain does it cause?
