high school life

i kinda miss those days. i found my high school journal and it made me laugh out loud when i get to read what i have written in that notebook of mine. that notebook was an extra notebook by an accident. usually, before the school year starts, every class adviser gives out the required number of notebooks to buy and all those other stuff that we use for homeroom, my most favorite subject of mine i guess. haha. we spend an hour doing nothing and just be crazy and just enjoy our high school life.

anyway, going back to the notebook. im gonna share some of the things that i have written there. it may not be the exact thing that i wrote there, but at least the thought of it is there.

when i flipped the notebook open, the first thing that i was able to read was about me being excited and all that about my upcoming birthday. its some time in 2001 i think, my last year in high school. i said something there: "and today i officially start my countdown to the most important day of my life..." and i cant believe that way back then, i used to be so ecstatic about my birthday, which i found so absurd being excited about nowadays because i think i am way too old for those kinda stuff. being excited about birthdays. sheesh. its a thing of the past that i want to forget about and that's just it.

another thing that really caught my attention when i was reading my high school journal was the short story that i wrote about me and some of my classmates. i have to admit that that story was a bit biased you see, because from all my classmates, i was the only one who was living a life of luxury. haha. pretty mean i guess, but i was still young then. i did not have the sickest imagination yet and i only had a little bit of background about writing stories, so there.

and one funny thing about that story is that most of the things that i wrote in their did not even come true. like for instance, i said something in the story that Tanya Garcia would end up hooking with Olivar Eparwa and they would have kids and stuff. yeah, they both have kids now. but not with each other. Tanya hooked up with another guy who is not from our school. they had one kid. Olivar on the other hand, hooked up with Karel Belcina (we went to the same school in elementary but she transferred when we got to high school) and they had twins. they met up in Silliman University where they both are getting their bachelor's degree. i dont know if both of them are still in school because of the babies, but if not, i think they are both fine.

another thing that made me laugh about the story is that i imagined so many of them ending up with each other and yet none of them came true. it just means that when you are young, your imagination has no limits and i wont debate on that.

ungh. i just miss those freaks so much. they have been having a couple of reunions since we graduated high school, but dont you think its a little bit too early to have those stuff? i want to have a reunion 10 years probably after high school. in that way, there would have been a lot of changes that nobody nor anybody would have thought possible. but, hey! who would not know about a single change in one person when in fact, most of them go to the same school and still hang out together? quite funny to think about. hehe.

high school just keeps bringing me memories of the good old times. how i wish i could turn back time and just do those things all over again. i dont mind being hurt again too, it has always been part of the balance. when you are happy, you get sad and all of these stuff happen in high school. sigh!
