i failed the two short quizzes in math5.. and i didnt do it on purpose.. at the time we had our 1st quiz, i had an exploding cough.. i was trying my hardest to stay calm.. so i had to breathe short.. and when i feel the magma rising, i panicked.. i started concentrating real hard to calm down.. i was shaking.. and that took all my concentraton so i had nothin left for the exam.. thats why.. in the 2nd.. well, there were lots of things running through my mind.. ok, i admit it.. i really was clueless.. no not really clueless.. maybe my mind wasnt functioning well.. i was quite confident id get 6pts but no.. i got a long stick.. so straight.. but ill survive.. i did fine in the long tests and quarter exam (hope so! talk abt confidence..).. but i still wanna go back in 3rd yr.. MATH4!! i love you!! g.im so stupid.. i was pressured.. i was under peer pressure, youknow.. i mean, it was my fault.. not listening to his discussions.. and letting him know i wasnt listening.. (i still remember playing that s.solitaire in k’s cp.. just so he’ll see im not listenin.. but in reality, i wasnt enjoying the game.. im such an artist..).. not studying (even though im dyin to study.. stupid, isnt it.. i dunno wat you call it.. pride or somthin.. i really dont know..).. i want him to be mad or sumthin.. but of course.. as everythin else.. it backfired.. of course i knew it would come to that (of course, i always know.. thats whats dfficult with me.. bec i always know.. shut up!!).. we were havin a quiz.. he required a whole sheet of paper.. but of course.. i was stupid.. i only occupied a quarter of that sheet.. g.im so stupid.. and my score?? what do you expect. i cant remember exactly.. but it wasnt near perfect.. i think its a quarter of the perect score.. kill me.. yeah.. i was feeling feeling.. you know what i mean?! thats it.. and sometimes.. no make that most of the time.. i still feel that feeling feel.. ugh!

and dont you just hate english.. no, not really hate.. more like.. i dont know.. i cant put into words what i have in mind.. cause i suck in writing.. you know what.. when i was in grade 4, my teacher told me i had a wide vocabulary.. oh, kill me.. i never liked english.. never.. and never will.. even if the teacher’s the most handsome, likable teacher ever.. no can do.. i just feel english’s not for me.. i mean look at me.. read me.. i dont have a wide vocabulary.. i dont speak well.. and most importantly, i cant write.. this isnt writing.. this is bs-ing.. makin nonsense.. its funny i was the e-i-c when i was in gr6.. i guess it was just because i was on top, you know.. i was making editorials and i dont even know what a running priest is.. g.im so pathetic.. but that was like 5yrs ago.. when i was innocent.. semi-innocent..

and com.sci. too.. i knew since first year i was no good in this field.. somehow i managed but just enough for me not to fail.. im not excellent.. i swore never to take courses involving this.. g.4yrs is already long.. i dont wanna add another year.. im a bit surprised this fourth year cause i got 1.25.. which is rare considering we’re talking about COM.SCI. here.. duh!? but it was justified cause i decreased which was not surprising.. considering like i said we ARE talkin about cOm.sCI.,.. duh?! it needs analysis.. which i learned in 2nd yr.. how hard it is to analyze.. g.! it really is hard.. but im not impressed with the teachers.. im just not impressed.. or maybe i dont wanna be impressed.. do i really need to say a word over and over again?? cause im not like some other guy there who uses every word in the dictionary.. looking up for unfamiliar words just so that it looks and reads nice.. amazing.. whatever.. or maybe they use those words because it really is appropriate.. and not just for using it like using it.. because it really shows what they really wanna tell you.. bs! why do i have to be like this.. this is impossible!

i just love mAth!

what you are about to read did not come from my mouth.. mga pangaral ‘to ni papa kay kara.. btw, kara is my 18 year old sister who happens to be a college student majoring in English (did i type it right?!).. they were having a conversation and i liked papa’s words of wisdom (haha.. he’s been saying it to me over and over again since time i dont know when.. i think it was when he noticed i was inclined in math and i was whining.. how ironic!).. any way, here is an excerpt.. haha.. not really..
"Because we use math everyday.. Studying math will also improve your logic and critical thinking.. collect sample problems, that is the best way to understand math.. don’t be satisfied with one example only, the more the better.. the library is the best place to go.. math is very interesting.. love it and it will love you back..but if you study math you become a better english teacher..if not the best..if you can explain math in english then you can explain anything..math is an exact science..if you know the rules then you will not get wrong..so try to understand the rules..english has more rules and exceptions.."
hey! just keep in mind that he was talkin to her.. not me.. but he told me the same thing years ago.. but it was just short.. something like this..
"if you know how the four operations (+, -, *, /) work, then you’ll do just fine.."
it was really inspirational..  haha.. that was how i became confident at math.. haha.. he also said something like practice solving math problems everyday.. maski usa la nga problem kuno.. actually, damu na an ngyakan ha ak hito after kan papa.. maski hino la.. ambot kun ngaykan ba adto an am math teacher (cant remember.. bangin wray..).. but im an advanced math student right?! at first i thought it was cool.. but now i have doubts.. i always believed math IS (?!) my favorite subject.. coz its easy and not hard to memorize.. (i suck at remembering stuffs!!).. lately, ive been failing my quizzes (haha.. dri man ini exaj.. tuod man.. an duha la).. ambot! feeling ko bubulok ak ha math.. haha.. actually, gusto ko bumalik ha 3rd year.. gusto ko tuhayon akon math.. alagad gintagan ako hin DOS!! tsk3.. naglinurong ak liwat.. (katirin: dont cry over f.spilled milk!!) seriously, gusto ko talaga bumalik 3rd yr.. waaaaaahh.. ambot.. lurong na it world!! hagee.. nagtitikahilaba la ini nga blog.. so dba, makarit ak kuno ha math.. tpos han napili na kmi hin course, wray man la ha ak choices an math.. kay liwat.. bagan ka boring.. oo gad, marisyu it math.. hadton mga panahon.. pero yana,.. ambot.. anay.. next tym ko nala ini igcocontinue.. nagkikita pa ak movie!!
