School elections are next week already. Some of you might know (especially people from Snark) that I’m campaign manager for one of the parties running [and there's no bias when I say that this party is one of the best that has ever run in my school (even some of the teachers say so, teehee)]. That said, I had to make sure that the campaign, which is composed of room-to-room, campus and canteen, was one of the, if not the best yet.
I can’t believe that elections would already be next week. Even though we started planning the second week of the year, everything just seems to fast to me. It’s just like last week when I was running around per class looking for level representatives to run, and campaign contacts to help me push votes. Well, as they say all good things must come to an end.
Next week too, I will be applying and interviewing for appointee positions in the student council. I’m applying for Public Relations Officer and the Student Judiciary Board. Fingers crossed for that one! Picture of the party after the cut!

Don’t believe movies when they tell you prom is awesome and it’s a night you’ll never forget. Just last Saturday I had my prom at the ballroom of Bellevue Manila and it was nothing special. The theme of our prom this year was Circus, and while the prom committee argued so hard in trying to push through with all the grand plans they had (which was by the way, on the budget), our school sucked and decided to give us a mediocre prom. 
It was really boring so there’s no point in going into details.
What was fun though, was the after-party. We hit a club called LAX and the moment I got there, I just got into the
mood. They were playing really good mixes and the drinks were really good (though they didn’t have French 75 on their menu 
). I was dancing with a couple of friends and well, THAT was a night I won’t forget.
Here’s the thing though: my parents didn’t I know I was going clubbing and I thought I could just sneak out and be home by 5 (since as far as I know their flight to Hong Kong was at 7). I was wrong. I get home a couple of minutes before 5 and all I see home is my aunt who’s staying with us for the weekend to watch over us while my parents were gone. I asked where my mom and dad was and she said that they left. AT 3.
In the end though, I didn’t get into trouble since they’re mostly still reminiscing Hong Kong when they came back and the anger was already gone.

I really hate how my parents can be so strict sometimes. There are times where I understand their being strict. I get the picture that yes, they are just thinking about my safety. Whenever we have after-school cheering practices, it usually ends at 8, and I usually do not go since I have to be home by 7:30. Traffic begins to go bad at around 6 so it’s either I go and leave at 6 or don’t go at all. And, what can an hour of practice do? Stretching, jumps and stunts? But what about the routine, which is basically the most important one of all? So I ditch those after-school practices and just catch up on the weekends (which I successfully do 
).
Now, that scenario I understand. I get their point that it’s dangerous for me, a student, to still be out at a late hour. However, there are just times when it goes berserk. After a competition, I was staying at my friend’s house. It was around 7 that we got home and we ate a little dinner, and I fell asleep on her bed. I woke up at around 8:30 with my mom on the phone yelling at me to go home. It was already late and my mom’s friend said that I could just sleep over since it wouldn’t be safe to take the public transportation alone at such time. I asked my mom if I could sleep over and she said no. What the fuck happened to being home by 7:30 because it’s unsafe for me to be out later than that?!
I know this post is all over the place, but I just had to rant it out.
