hurrah! (me & bbb's journey)

the only thing we need is: UPCAT exam.

finally! at last! sa wakas! yes! napasa na rin namin..haha! hurrah! :-D the story?! read on..

i was scheduled to go to U.P. Diliman for the 2nd time to pass my college application forms. i wasn't able to do it the last time because we don't have the BIR certificate of exemption. i woke up at 5 in the morning cuz we'll gonna go at 6, but then my dad told me that 7 is the departure time, so i slept until 6. bbb marc will also pass his applications, so i decided to invite him to join us. whee! we waited for him until past 7. but a little misfortune happened: we ran out of gas! so my dad went to noveleta to buy some. then by 8 we were off to the road!

first we went to alabang country club because dad wanted to borrow tita cynthia's car (she's the general manager there). so we ate first..we both ordered omelette (mine's with corned beef & his with ham & cheese). while eating we waited for my aunt..until 10:30. oh by the way, while chatting, we noticed english-spokening people behind marc (magkaharap kami). they were like, super english! nosebleed.. :-O and the funny part is, when marc conversed to me in english, they stopped chatting & looked at us! hehe..as if naman ngayon lang sila nakakita ng nag-eenglish..^me at the alabang country club..wahehe.. :-P

by 11:30 we got to UP at last! but what's that? we're lost?! yup..we got lost first. it's like, paikot-ikot kami! maybe that's because we entered at the back..we really can't find the office of admission! by i think 12:45, we reached the admission office & lined up. but it's nearly 12, so the personnel advised us that we should be back at 1 pm. what the heck! that means we were going to miss our afternoon classes (sob!). we were also told to pay the penalty at the quezon hall & marc has to pay his exam fee at landbank. so we went straight to quezon hall, but it's closed! dush..we headed to landbank & thankfully he was able to pay his fee. after that we ate snack (siopao for the 2 of us..iced tea for me & coffee for him). when we sat on the nearby bench, a member of a cycling club asked me, "miss dito ka ba nag-aaral?" he seemed harmless. but.. :-I anyway, i replied, "hindi." then marc added, "sana!" jokingly marc kept on saying to me, "you're in danger!" hmm..because someone asked me? ganun. dad left us alone because he was too tired & he want to rest below some trees. so we remained still (people watching) until 1 pm.

by 1: 15 we went to quezon hall to pay for our penalties. it was near the oblation statue so we were able to see it (only the back!). after paying, i asked him, "admission or oblation?" he chose the latter..but when we got to the exit, it's raining! oh crap, how are we going to take pictures & walk back to the store? we don't have an umbrella to add to the pitfall.. :-( well, we weren't able to do picture picture with mr. oblation. sad. :-(^at the quezon hall..peace!

fortunately the rain had decreased so we were able to go the admission office again. it was 2 pm. we lined up again (the line wasn't that long!) surprisingly, a personnel told us that the test center in imus was already red-flagged (i don't know what that means), so we decided to take the UPCAT in UPD. hmm..kuya (as i called him!) even joked that after the exam, we could go to trinoma for some refreshing-up..but the exam's going to be 5 hours, and it starts at 12:30 pm. so i think we are not gonna be able to do that. erase erase! :-P

when we got our test permits, i was quite disappointed. marc & i are going to take the exam in different (& very far from each other) bulidings! gosh..bakit hindi pa kami pinagsama?! ang laki laki ng UP eh. :-I we went home tired & wondering if we will still go to school (it was 2:30 pm). we decided to go anyway..just so we can meet up with our friends & catch up with the latest happenings (we weren't able to attend the first CAT meeting. that's the ouch part. oww!).^marc & me..going home already!

we got there at about 4:30 pm, and mazy welcomed me first. then erika saw me & came running towards us! she also gave me a big hug, which was kinda rare to experience from my beszie. heehee.. :-D i also found the whole tHymAnGeRzZ there. i wonder why they're still there? anyway by 5 we decided to go home & catherine told me that she fainted yesterday! whaaat?! i went home early yesterday so i didn't know. then in the bus, erika's mood suddenly turned gloomy. yun pala, she's not feeling well. so there, our journey as part-time UP students. hehe! :-P
