SPUP…peep at the testing room at konting ch0rva

Eating my hawaiian pizza sa Greenwich…hehe. Kkgaling lng namin sa St. Paul University, Tuguegarao after 3 h0urs n byahe sa van. Kkpag0d. Pag dating namin dun lulan ng tricycle, bumungad samin ang “No i.d. No entry” sign. Cxempre, nilabas q ung test permit ko at bngyan ak0 ng visitor’s i.d…ksama ko si Ma at lil sis, hnanap namin ang test room…

Ang laki ng St. Paul…un ang pnkamalaking university n npuntahan ko…para 2loy ang liit ng CSU s paningin ko dun. We asked where can the Madeleine Hall be found. Para sa mga pu2nta d2 bukas or sa linggo, diretso lang papapunta sa likod, lampasan niyo ung gngawang gymnasium, sa likod ng malakiiing building, may “this way to learning center” chuva kaung mkkta dun at pagkatas nun e ung “this way to ma. Madeleine”. Nandun un sa pinto na may 103.

I took a little peep in the testing room…or hall, much like that. Aircon un hah. The white, plastic armchairs are waiting there, arranged in a not so quite distant spaces (pero s palagay ko, kht ganun ang arrangement, mhrap mkpag symbiosis s strangers…jeje). Sana, mgng buenas ung bnili kong Faber Castle na testing pencil n may kasamang exam tips, eraser at sharpener hehe. I also got a Sigmund Freud book in sale at NBS…ung Dream Psychology…Psychoanalysis for Beginners. Sa wakas malalaman ko na kung bkt puro calamities ang mga panagnip n Tin…HAHAHA. Kht pa naman di ak0 mapadpad sa UP at matuloy ng Psych dun, mhal k0 parin ang Psych kht Nursing (that’s plan B) ang madiretsuhan k0.

Good luck talaga sakin…bukas n ang test k0h…haiss…maubos n nga 2ng pizza at mabasa ung nsa binili k0ng exam pencil pack…gud luck ulit s mga UPCAT takers. Per0 m0re gud luck s batch k0 :p ciao!

Friday Morning Before the UPCAT, Destiny, Hope and Other Matters…

Today’s Friday. I’m not going to school. Actually, it’s more likeditching, but with a legal reason…hehe

Tomorrow’s gonna be the UPCAT, and after twenty four hours, i’m going to be in the Madeleine Hall in St. Paul, Tuguegarao.

If my test had not been scheduled in such an hour, i can go there tomorrow instead (the trip lasts for two and a half hours and the earliest trip is four thirty in the morning…so can’t commit) and i’ll be able to watch the “Search for Mr. False Gay” in the CE and HS department and i would be talking about Philippine Tolerance with gays…well i can write that for some other time :)

Well, for the UPCAT i’m not that much stuck up in reviewing stuff. The kind of preparation i did was not buying MSA Reviewers which cost 700php. I just read threads and forums about UP for hours and took SAT practice tests online.But I did borrow those MSA’s and flipped a little. My teachers conducted a review just the other day, thinking it will be helpful (but reviews for the three last days before the test won’t do anything good for me).

I believe with the destiny factor– if you aren’t destined for something, you will not have it regardless of your efforts trying to pursue it. If they won’t sign me up for UP, i’d have to attend New Era University instead and take Nursing…mom’s plans. So if i flunk UPCAT, the rest of my life and my whole plans for the future will slip out from my hands and i’d be following my folk’s Manual For Mia’s Whole Future. And of course, that would be God’s better plan for me. Destiny is just His tool for making his plans for come to me.

Well i know you people might be wondering why i’m so submissive to God and why do i have a philosophy like that. All my life, i lived beside a respectable church, literally. That’s enough reason.

Yesterday, final Good Luck’s had been said. All of the dreams about success and hope of 70000 students can either be knocked down or made come true by a five-hour exam. Well, i guess that’s what life is :) good luck ulit, Tin :)
