Ze Christmas Party

A while ago our class had a Christmas party. As usual, we had a Mass which was pretty much shorter than I expected. After the Mass, there was a presentation which I was not able to watch because I was waiting for my mini-component system which we were gonna use in the party.
We sarted the party with a prayer (as usual) then we ate our food (pizza, chicken& bb-q). La Margarita played afterwards but, unfortunately, the vocalist wasn't heard much. I did not really had much fun (not that I cared about having fun) until most people were already leaving. That time AJ Perez, Jules Joaquim and I were just listening to some alternative music in my component system. Then Jules and I decided to help AJ out in putting away his drum set in his car. As we were carrying his stuff, I remembered that somewhere on the cd that was playing in the component was a song entittled Judith by A Perfect Circle. This worried me so much since Judith is a song with major profanity (the lyrics go like "fuck your god, your lord, your christ") and our class advisor and some parents were still there. Once we settled my friends equipment we hurried back to our classroom and I was so nervous. I was nervous because everyone seemed so quiet and among them was our past religion teacher......I thought Judith had already been played......Fortunately, we got back just in time before track 8 was about to be finished and Judith was track 9...whew....In the end, the party turned out enjoyable especially because I was with my friends. ^_^

KLIK

Today, we had our KLIK or Klaseng ibang Klase. My first session was 'Love Poetry.' Considering it wasn't in my 7 choices I had doubts of it turning out interesting.....well...I proved myself right...I came in, trying optimism for a change, thinking that maybe I can learn something new and apply it to writing songs. Unfortunately, it turned out that the session was for love poetry appreciation....something I have never really done....and so I spent the whole 2 hours drawing in my notebook or reading "Animal Farm" instead. All in all it was boring as hell..

Then came my next class, Yoga. Unlike 'Love Poetry,' I actually learned something new here! Plus I did get to appreciate it to a certain extent. I learned a few standing and sitting postures, proper yoga breathing and meditation. There were only two things I did not like about yoga. One, was the fact that all yogis are vegetarians. The other thing is that yoga is something religious....something like connecting with heavenly powers, attaining unity with the earth and cleansing. Yoga turned out painful but relaxing.

After KLIK was over, I decided to serve my post. I served it right after my Yoga class so my body ached so much. I had to stand still for 20 minutes!! Good thing the APSA guy( sir Sandy) is my friend and he wasn't too strict about the military post rule. ^_^
