the magic of cramming

i guess right now, i'm about a few meters past the entrance of Inferno aka hell. hayayay. i feel proud though, i finally finished reading the book assigned to us in Lit. it's called Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Marquez. gawd it was so hard reading it. 0.o besides, i'd rather read the longest Hp book in exchange of that anytime. i also hated the ending. arrgh anyway, you might have not understood anything i said so i'll just shut up about saying anything about the book.

moving along, awhile ago, we had our Fil presentation. it actually went very well. it only took us about 5 minutes to brief the group for parts and everything was just impromptu. :) i actually felt kinda intimidated and bad when the other group had a short skit, an analysis that took them about 10 minutes, and background music. they really looked prepared despite that they only thought of their presentation a few hours ago. while we, on the other hand, took only about 10 minutes of fil time to present. i guess sir just kinda felt "moved" by our intro song. haha. the song kind goes like this:

sinaktan mo ako
sinasakal dinuduro
linampaso sa kalye
sinubsob sa may semento
winithdraw mo pa lahat ng savings ko
pineke mo pa ang signature ko
at nakuha mo pa akong sapakin
sinangla mo pa ang rehistro ng kotse ko

sinaktan
sinakal
dinuduro
sinasabunutan
binubugbog
sinaksak mo pa ako ng kutsilyo (sobrang natawa ako sa part nato)
buti na lang mapurol ito

paggising ko
sabi ko
kayo na po ba si San Pedro?
hindi iha, nasa ospital ka [in a pilit manly voice]
at ako'y napaisip kung bakit mahal pa rin kita

it's not really the exact lyrics but it kinda means like that. nakakagago pa ung boses ng singer. ganyan ang lyrics pero senti ung tono ng kanta. haha. shiiit, half of the group (me included) had this as their LSS for the rest of the day. arrgh. hahahaha :)

the best part was, we got the highest grade among all 3 groups. hehe. we got a 90. :D hehe. hey, a 90's great already considering we didn't do any extra preparations.

it's just ironic how i could prepare a presentation with so much patience and creativity then end up with a C+ . i actually got a B+ for a presentation we didn't put so much effort on.

oh well. life's full of ironies.

anyhoo, i'm off to cram again. gosh, i have so much to do! hahaha :P

toodles!
