OK. These past few days hadn't really been great for me. There so much school work, bad happenings, and a lot others.
Starting last July 18, 2011, it was supposedly going to be a happy day for all of us family members since it's my brother's birthday, but it turned out to be the opposite. I LOST MY SAMSUNG M3510 PHONE. Oh that memorable phone I got as a congratulatory gift for being First Honor when I was 2nd Year HS. I don't know why, but it only took me a day and a half to recover. (o_O) Still, I missed it so much, only that I moved on.

| In memory of my Samsung M3510. |
BUT! I still got a new phone, which I bought the weekend after (July 23, 2011)! :) It's the cheaper MyPhone QP29 Duo, a phone made in the Philippines, but then again, it wasn't really that obvious since features were just as great as those of Nokia's and Samsung's. :)) And so far it was the first phone that got me satisfied to the optimum level with its sound quality, and the price too. LOL ^^, It just costs around PHP 2590 (Excluding the memory card. wahaha :P Which costs around PHP 350.), and you wouldn't expect a "low" price on a phone with features such as the ones stated here. So, yeah, I recommend this phone to you. :D
Here's the picture:
See? This kind of phone? In Nokia it would probably cost PHP 7000 to 14000 (not sure with this price range). A really big difference, right? :D
Well, I've been using this for more than a week now and I'm satisfied with it, although I got to admit I'd love to add Pinoy Content to it, which wasn't readily available on my phone, and that's one disadvantage. But overall it's great, I was pretty ignorant with the touchpad thingy since it was the first time I used such. hahah! This phone truly proved to me that the Philippines also has great potential in manufacturing "just-as-great" phones. :))
LOL. What a review. xD
Back to the "bad week", I hadn't been living up my expectations (very high grades, satisfactory performance, dealing well with clubs I preside, etc.) in school.
Yes, my grades were still "fairly" high, but not as high as they're supposed to be so that I could reach the top of the honors' list.
Yes, my performance is satisfactory, but still it wasn't what I expected it to be, I mean, it wasn't that great. I don't know why, but I feel that I need to develop myself more and more, only that it seemed very hard for me. Like for example, ORAL RECITATIONS. Everyone, well except for me, excels in it. I hate this stuttering mouth I have, which stops me from speaking so well when I'm nervous (and also when I'm not), and yeah, this makes my nervousness pretty obvious. How do I stop being nervous?! Oral recitations are more to come, and I don't want any more awkward stuttering moments to come too since I'm after of a good grade in this part of the grading system. Oh come on! it's freakin' 20 or 30% (?) of the grading system! Lord, please help me. This is the ONLY way I could ace my subjects (particularly Filipino which makes my nose bleed as well -- not literally) for now since I'm already good with quizzes (well, not really in Filipino), seatworks, and activities.
Then, in dealing with clubs I preside, particularly the Math Club, I feel that I'm no good at influencing people that much. Although many say that "Leadership is a skill and it can be learned." still, the fact that I don't have great potential worries me. I wanna be like my father who's really good at influencing others. Why, o why couldn't I inherit that skill instead?! It gets me thinking by the moment, "How was I raised to be the person who I am now exactly?" or "Why am I not the person I expect myself to be?".
And oh, about the Investigatory Project, we already had our defense for our proposal. Turned out that there were a lot of errors in our Procedure (yikes!), but it's all well now. I already fixed it, but still it's lacking on how to make our own E. Coli specimen, which I'll ask my advisers on that.
In Entrepreneurship, we had started making our Business Proposal already. Again, this had a lot of corrections, but I already edited it. I'm just waiting for my friend (and also a co-member of our group) to finish her assigned part of editing.
You know, I'm joining the regional ROTARACT Quiz Bowl! :D Yipee! I'm so excited, and I'm looking forward to our review next week. Our quiz bowl would be this coming August 13. ;) I really need to know what I should do to win. I haven't won an interschool contest before, and I want this to be the first that I'll win.
Yesterday was our Joint GPTCA/SBO Induction of Officers, and we wore uniform t-shirts! :D I love it 'coz it's black and it has cool fabric, but the only disadvantage was that mine wasn't printed correctly, but it's all fixed now. Our university president loved our t-shirts, and he thought we were the choir. haha! Of course, he meant that as a complement, and that made me, and maybe might as well my fellow SBO officers, proud who they are at the moment. And yes, this was also the day that I'm formally the SBO Secretary. After the Induction was the Acquaintance Party, and there were a lot of food. LOL. I ate empanada and bihon, and they were delicious.
And oh! The morning of yesterday was our Cooking Contest, which I was assigned in the beverage section. Here are some pics. Sorry for the quality since I took it with my phone.

I got lazy at editing. hahaha! So, my apologies.
Our main ingredients were seashells, ground chicken, banana, avocado, watermelon, orange, and apple. They're all delicious. :))
