Tina and Pao have this amazing thing going for them. I know so little about the situation but i mean, all i really need to know is that they're having some good fun together for now... I admire that they're taking their time on these things. I mean, Pado is such a gentleman. And tina's this lovely princess who deserves the world. I know that Pado would gladly do that--give her the world... which brings me to my next point...
I don't want the world. Nor do I need it. besides, i doubt i deserve it. Anyways! what i'm trying to say is this: I could be anywhere and i'd be just as happy. all i need is the people who make my life magic everyday. i found them at orsem. but only realized it. the campus is magic. With it's never ending green. Even the cigarette butts scattered over the "cemented area" in the smocket are beautiful. See!? I've become this optimistic never-ending ball of energy--that's not usually the case with me. But look at me now! Here I am, grinning from ear to ear, enjoying every minute of this spell i'm under.
I was worried about vince earlier. I mean, he wasn't smiling the way he usually does. He wasn't laughing nor was he telling jokes the way he does... don't ask me why i notice these things he does. i just do. So my immedeat thought was that something was wrong. Finding out that he was just serious about a test was a little hard to digest--not the fact that he was serious (though that is a rare thing!). what surprised me is that I was genuinely worried. And for a moment, my energy level dropped. i dedicated 5 minutes to pondering--wondering what could be wrong. i cared. i cared a little more than i should have. but this might be what reveals a simple fact. unfortunately, this fact was not only realized by myself... but everyone else. am i really that easy to read? eventually i'll give up trying to hide... if, that is, i AM hiding it.
I'm proud of the fact that i'm finally starting to get my act together in terms of school. I'm pretty confident that my minipaper for lit is going to kick ass. that's a good thing. i mean, our minipapers count for 20% of our grades! now if only i could keep at this, i could get a much-needed scholarship. pray for me everyone!
i'm beginning to wonder what on earth i might do if i were to ever get kicked out of ateneo. Now that i've built my life on what happens here--in this wonderful new world. leaving would throw me into such sadness that i'd probably stop living all together.
