Hello! You can choose either NSTP or ROTC. Ang ROTC pang freshmen. Tapos ang NSTP sa sophomore year pa. Pero pag nag ROTC ka na ng first year, di ka na magNSTP. Same goes pag di ka nag ROTC, mag NSTP ka on your 2nd year. Tapos pag NSTP ka, ou can choose either LTS or CWTS :)

Last Day.
The big reveal.
Yes, those are my leotards, pink tights and pink ballet shoes.
I took ballet lessons for a change this summer and today was my last day. What got me into taking them? My mom. She really wanted to see me dance other genres besides hip hop.
Before I said yes, I had hesitations giving in to her request. I’d probably be the last person my friends would thought of dancing ballet. Hip hop is my core. And, for what I know, ballet is learned at a young age. I thought I couldn’t do it because maybe I’m too old for it. It might be hard for me to begin now.
Then I found out that learning ballet early on is needed if you’re planning on dancing professionally. But if not, ballet has no age limit. So, I agreed. I also adore ballet. The discipline ballet dancers have is incredible. I also want to know what their world feels like.
You probably want to know how my first day went. It was horrible! I barely knew the terms much less do it. I recognize a few, thanks to Mama Del who taught us Jazz back in high school. But that’s not going to cut it. It was also intimidating to be in a room with those 15-year-old girls and below who could do ballet smoothly. Glad I’m not alone on this one. One of my closest friends and fellow high school dance club member joined me to fulfill this frustration. (Hi there, Tabs!)
But as I go on and learn to tighten my fifth, square my hips and point my toes, I came to love it. I like learning new things. Part of me hoped that I did ballet when I was young. It was a great experience. Meeting new friends and ballerinas was part of the package.
The first few days were definitely a struggle. But when the last week came, I wish I could extend so that I could learn more and do more. No matter how hard or fast the exercise was, I tried my best and that’s how improvement comes into play. The stretches made me develop my strength though it was really painful. It was a feel good pain, though. I also wanted to have long extensions.
The 12 sessions were a short-lived almost-dream-come-true thing for me. Our teacher even asked me if I’d continue even when school starts, I said, as much as I would love to, I can’t. Then she told Tabs and I that she’d make us try pointes :”> IF we renew. Sadly I have to say goodbye to that dream. For now. Who knows…
Thank you so much to Ana Emata School of Classical Ballet for an unforgettable experience. Of course, much thanks to our teacher, Teacher Ana Emata, for being so patient with newbies like me.
Wish I could watch their show in Luxor. 😔 #Jabbawockeez #FirstandForeverInspiration
Most Stupid Country?
The legitimacy of this photo is questionable, at least to me. I tried searching it in Time.com and I can’t see it. Something serious as this must be the headlines of all newspapers and news programs but it isn’t.
Whether real or photoshopped, this is embarrassing.
Results of the recent elections aren’t final but it is without a doubt that Nancy Binay is part of the top 12. More surprisingly she ranked 5th.
Being called stupid sucks but somehow I agree. Social networking sites have done its job to expose Nancy Binay’s incompetence but what happened to those 11 million people who voted for her? Do they live under a rock? Who doesn’t have a facebook account? Who doesn’t watch news? It’s all over media that she hasn’t done anything to be worthy of that position.
Clearly, she doesn’t have a firm stand on something she believes in. I do not know anything about her advocacy. Does she even have a plan for the betterment of our country? What does she know about politics? She’s just the daughter of our Vice President. So childish to use her father’s name to make this. I don’t know what the Binay’s are planning but it’s definitely a stupid move to let her run. Ano ito father and daughter bonding at kailangan sa gobyerno pa?
We have been trying to mend the bad image our country had but then this showed up. Our history professor told us how we should be happy about our country’s current economic stand. It’s slowly booming. And that Manila made it’s way to CNN’s weather forecast. Apparently, it was a short-lived glory. All thanks to Nancy Binay.
What else is it to do but watch. I would watch her like I would watch So You Think You Can Dance. I can’t stand to miss one episode.
Thinking about it, maybe this is what she wanted. To be the star, to be talked about. All those Binay jokes would only feed her fame.
Stupid country you say? No. Stupid 11 million people who shaded that circle beside her name. Glad I’m not stupid.
