Rfl Cstllo. Add some vowels to get my name right. I live somewhere in Manila but I study somewhere in the Cordillera. I used to blog everyday, but there's just a lot of other things that keeps me busy these days.
So, tomorrow's the day I've been waiting for. More than the Baguio trip last December and definitely more than the other days I've said I have waited for. Why tomorrow is a super special and extraordinary day for me? 'Cause tomorrow's the so-called Graduation Day. "Where all of us graduating will be going up that stage, getting that red-colored diploma and bowing in front of everyone when our name's called. Still, graduation's not all that, there will be tons of speeches, sitting and standing, and waiting. And of course, my very own worries of not ending the whole program since we'll be going to the bus terminal before 10:30 in the evening.
And, I think that's the whole of it. Sorry if I cannot share other things about our graduation. It's just practically a long ceremony of some sort. Lol. I mean, how can you make fast forward a program with 587 candidates for graduation? That would be of course, impossible. Plus long speeches and stuff. Which will be, boring, or maybe not. :P
For some random stories though, I bought a "7-Election" cup in 7-Eleven a week ago. The bad thing is, the house cleaner that Mom hired thrown it away even though it was already placed inside my soon-to-be time capsule (which is inspired by the former Nickelodeon park somewhere in Florida[?] and the movie Knowing). AH! Still, I am proud to say that I have somehow "voted" the person on that cup in 7-Eleven's mock elections. Still, I really wanted to have that cup. I just wish I could buy one again, after Holy Week.
There you go! Hope I can post something probably next week right after we've finished our out-of-town vacation (remember my Palawan/Bohol/Cebu blog posts?). This time, we'll go to Laoag, Vigan and Pagudpud. :D
Graduation Post Part 2

I just can't seem to be my old "blogger-self". For the past few days, I've been here and tried to type something, but nothing makes me want to click that Publish Post button. The unfinished posts just stays on the Drafts section and I won't mind them anymore.
Probably because the word "graduation" doesn't seem to make me go post something about it. The word's just too...complicated. Not complicated like I won't graduate and won't be able to get that diploma. No! I know I am cleared, that I have gotten that toga suit and graduation cap and all missing now is the long red High School diploma. Complicated for me today means, it's just hard to explain on what I think of graduation. It may mean to you a long and boring ceremony and the goal is only for you to get up that stage and get that diploma. Well, for some reasons, I think that's not just what graduation is all about. Graduation is the time you'll realize that High School is over and College is going to happen after that. The mistakes, the things you've missed, and other things that you cannot correct or repeat again. And the best experiences, the best things you've received whether through academics or through the people you've been around for four years. Graduation is all that matters for you to realize these things. But sometimes, people just don't take it seriously. They just make High School as a fun stuff. They do not even realize that they're taking the wrong way. That through graduation, you'll know you've hopefully taken the right way and you're going to follow it until you end your academic years.
Four days remain for me to be able to realize the things I've done, experienced, regretted, loved, etc. during High School. It may be a short time, but for me, it will be a long journey to do.

I can't think of anything. My mind is off to somewhere.
