Noveber 16, 2009; 10:56 PM

I'm trying to get a sleep after so mcu burden has been put on my by my not so friendly office environment. I slept at around 9PM I guess.

Then suddenly, my phone rang. It was Cleah Mae Bendaval who tried to call me. I ignored the call. Maybe it's not important anyway. Then the phone rang again. And again. And again. All i did is ignore. Ignore. Ignore. Putting in y ind that "I'm trying to get some sleep here people. Can't you understand that?! But then again, the phone rang. Ok ok. I looked at y phone and i saw 10 messages received. I wondered who texted me. Suprisingly, all came from Cleah and Vanesa. I opened one of the messages.

What was written was:
Aries, sa diin kaw?! Kita ko ngaran mo ja sa internet. Pasar kaw! Congrats!

I did not react. What the hell are they talking about? Congratulations for? All I'm anticipating that time was the Licensure examinataion for Teachers. And suddenly I remembered! Was it the LET result? Was it? Or it's just another prank. Then suddenly the phne rang again.

"Aries, wara mo ginasabat haw? Diin kaw? Ja kami Vanvan sa Digi. Pasar ikaw! Pasar kita!"

And i was shocked!

I passed the LET! I mean i reallt did not expet that I would pass because of the reason that I poseted prior to this message.

I hurriedly put my pants and a t-shirt on. I put some scent and carefully walked out of the boarding house so as not to disturb anybody. I rode a taxi. I went ot digitizers and logged in. I typed: October 2009 LET results. And i saw my name. Applicant number 1979. Cabahit Aries Blase. It's me! It's my name.

I went to Vanvan's beehaus. I saw Sanil, Fria and Vanesa. We hopped because of laughter, beacause of disbelief and because of relief that the long wait is over. That we are now professional teachers. I searched again for the names of y classmates. Unfortunately, not all of us passed. One of my classmates did not make it.

After I went home, i texted my parents, my friends and my classmate. And again, tried to get soe sleep. But i could not. It was about 3AM that I finally slept.

November 18...

I bought newspaper. I looked for the results. I saw again my name. And i saw that more than 30,000 applicants all over the country tooked the exam and only 10,000 plus of us passed. The results of the BEEd was even devastating. Among 43,000 plus, only 8,000 plus passed.

I talked to myself smiling...

This is not just pure luck. This is nature. This is all because of me. I' m really intelligent. hahaha

To those who passed: my congratulations! See you on our oathtaking!

Frantic... Skeptic... Panic...

Yeah right...

You will, and i know you will, condemn me if not totally tell it to my face that it's been about hmmm... how many month since i last updated my blog..? well, i just know what things to prioritize now... hehehe...

what up? hahaha... what date is today? September 25... right!!! two days from the judgement day that we wish would never come... huhuhu... september 27 will be our licensure examination. to tell you honestly, i quit my review classes when i accepted the job at a chinese school. i had no time to study since i am very loaded with my classes... 9 classes every monday and 7 from tuesday to friday... aside from that, we also have our administrative work... and so, i got no chance to really equip myself with the necessary knowledge that would eventually make me pass.

though i know and so does everybody else who know me, that i am very optimistic and have this very high self esteem, confidence and concept, i humbly admit that this is the first time that i shed and do not trust my own self. if only self confidence is sold at SM City, i would have bought a ton of it. but sad to say, you have to build and develop it for years.

my getting of the licensure exam is the wildest thing and the most daring situation i got myself into. i have not prepared for it. i had no time for study, though i try at times but i end up sleeping.

but i know of course that shame will be around me and my family if i will not pass this exam. imagine, a Magna Cum Laude of the WVSU, did not pass the licensure exam? how stupid!

no, i can do it. and i should do it. not just for myself but for those who sacrificed and helped me all throughout the way. though my preparation is not that in depth, i will do my best to answer the questions, shade the answer of my choice properly and most of all, understand what are asked. i can do it.

if others say that they can do it, so WHAT!!!

i can, i will and i should do BETTER!!!

i will pass. i can pass. i sould pass!

a close to chinese thingy...

yes, yes, i know... i know that it's been a very, very, very, very, very, and did i say very long time since i updated this blog. you don't know what i've been through and what i be going through in the near future of my not so professional life (i don't have my license yet, hahaha, i'm half cooked).

Anyway, today is friday, July 31... after disappointing ourselves with our salary and yes it's pay day but, we're not happy. our adjustments were not yet added... huhuhu... i'm into a great depression and dillema which i really need to go through! i need not elaborate coz i know you will not help me anyway. but i'm still happy that this week is not that heavy... hahaha... stress-free week! yes! that's why i'm sitting my ass down and typing...
anyway, i'm already lost in my own storytelling thing. regardless of how much i received for my salary, i'm so overwhelmed...

let's turn back time...

last week or so... we have out chinese faculty in the school where i'm teaching right now... i saw this chinese faculty checking for the rooms if the rooms were cleaned because we are having this cleanliness contest in school. suddenly, a lightling struck my head. i was curious of what if i'm a chinese, what would my name be like. so out of my curiousity, i ask my chinese counterpart (she's the chinese adviser of my advisory class) if how are they converting english names into chinese names. i'm not implying something to her but she's one intelligent chinese. she knew what i want. to convert my name to chinese.

fast forward...

so, came today. i am suffering from a severe swelling of my tonsils since monday, July 27, for the very first time of my life for whomever's sake. and it's my co-teacher's post birthday celebration so she went out and bought us snacks. she bought doughnut and as we know, this thing is sweet and therefore i'm avoiding it coz of my tonsilitis. so what i did is that i gave it to my chinese counterpart and what happened next shocked me. after offering her my doughnut, she gave me in return my chinese name. it's Li Si (pronounced as Li Shi, i don't know what's the real score but i know how it sounds). and my chinese name means culture, refinement and gentleness which i really and immediately agreed on! i'm very happy that i have now my chinese name and as i smile and laugh aternately, she's doing the same thing. she's also happy for me. i can tell...

i'm now a chinese... in my dreams! hahaha

Sour Graping but feeling Sweet Lemon...

Ladies and gentlemen, im back!
I have not updated you since last month. Well so many things happened. I a now employed at a certain Chinese school after declining and after i did not reply to their invitation. But yes, finally i accepted it after they implied with their statements when i went there to settle things that they will not let me go out of the door if i will not sign the contract accepting the job. So i did accept the job. That happened May 9.
Fast forward to May 18 - the day that we reported to the said school. I thought that after forcing me to be their teacher, they would give me what i want because in the first place, i never really wanted to be there. Unfortunately, they made me an elementary teacher! Actually, six of us from WVSU including the BEST STUDENT TEACHER FOR BSED. How insulting! Our psychology is far from what we are in right now.
I am really sour graping the time i knew i was not called for an orientation in the secondary department which made me conclude that i am not one of them and i belong to the other pedagogical department. I feel insulted and i feel devastated...grrr!
But everythings changed espacially when a used to be an acquiantance (he was never a friend to me) ACTED LIKE HIS SOMEONE WE WHOSE LEVEL WE CAN'T REACH because he is not talking to us and even not looking or even just a smile! How dare him! As if! Well, mister know it all, i am sorry to butst your bubble because it is my level that you can't reach. I graduated with honors because of my own sweat and not because i begged and plead to my teachers to change my grade for me to become an honor student like what you did!
I really love my department. I'd rather be here than be there in your own little hell! I love my co-teachers and they are way too cool than all of them in their department combined!
Let's just see mister whatsoever. Good luck to you!
But the good news is, i will be accepting my first salary (actually half of my regular salary). Isn't it amazing?! I know it is and i am... :-)

Sick of It... and you will, too!

Yesterday's my birthday. well, it's not an ordinary bday sana because it is my 21st bday... i should be celebrating, right? But i did not. Wanna ask why? huhuhu... First, damn it rained hard yesterday. how will i go out of the house if it is raining like the day that moses made the ark! Second, well because of the rain, i slept the whole afternoon... man i looked like a sloth... third, i don't have money to spend... actually i have, but it is in my ATM but as what i've said, it's raining... And fourth, my friends are not around, they are busy doing their on thing. they are in iloilo and i'm in antique... so aside from my family, of course, i want to celebrate it with my friends... AND LAST AND THE WORST, i had flu and i had tonsilitis... Now tell me, did i have a choice not to celebrate? Who can get such misfortune as i did? Well anyway, i was happy yesterday because almost all of my friends greeted me but as for some, i had to text them just to greet me! but looking at it positively, we prepared sinigang baboy which is my favorite and somehow soothen my throat... well anyway, it's my birthday... HAPPY BIRTHDAY! well yesterday... april 23

After Grad... what the heck?!

March 31, 2009...

The day that i graduated. They come after it, i am already unemployed. Rejoice for not all have the chance to be unemployed, right? But hey, thanks God, I am not. Here's one of my pics from that very memorable day. I graduated Magna Cum Laude (teh ano?! padayaw?!). But what i don't like about it is my pictures taken by the photographer. My god, it's as if my shots are all candid. I was not looking at the camera, my mouth wide open and all other things that people should not see especially captured by the camera. huhuhu. it's a mess!

where did i go wrong...

i know that life is not just about happiness. it also has to deal on enduring the pain that goes along with it. I received a news that it was my classmate who made it to ateneo de iloilo. i did not qualify for a teaching post there... but then again, i came to realize that not all things are meant for me alone... sabi nga ni Ateh Adel, "minsan, kahit kyut, napaglalamangan din" which i think is somehow true. but kidding aside, im very much happy for my classmate who made it. she really needs the job to send her 2 younger sisters to college, unlike me, i need a job just to get employed and to stay longer in iloilo. shallow reasons right? maybe it's God's will not to give me the job but for someone who really needs it... see guys, God has plans for each and everyone of us, but whatever happens, don't loose hope. there's still more to come. maybe it's not my time to shine yet (eventhough i shine too much already, hahaha). someday, i will have a nice job... i promise!

i made it... hahaha
