San Diego

May 5th, 2007

Woke up at around 8 this morning. Checked my phone for any text messages. Then I headed to my computerfront to see if I had any new emails or new messages or new whatevers from people.. All these I did even before I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth..

I know, I know.. It’s sad. My life is completely engulfed with all these technology things.. and again, I am reminded that my life is no more than a bore, and I’m slowly becoming a full-blown sociopath.. Tsk.

Haha..

Anyways.. so I left the house at about 9:45-ish and headed to Starbucks to get Paula’s and Brian’s caffeine fix. Drove to school.. hung out a little bit with Brian in my car.. and finally got to class.

School was a big blur.. I’m seriously terminal with my Senioritis, I tell you. In chemistry, I had to explain some chemistry kinetics mechanics in class (which is supposedly general knowledge by now) and I completely bombed it and made an ass of myself in front of the class..

“Rina,” my chem teacher called, ” Do you think if we reverse the reaction then it will be more favorable to the reactants?”

“Uhm.. no?” I hesitantly answered.

“Are you sure?”

“Mr. Hagen, is this a trick question?”

“Well… no. It’s just a matter of understanding how the mechanics work..”

Man, I hate reminiscing about my good old chemistry days.. when everything was easy and I wouldn’t ever get a grade lower than a 98% on any given test.. It makes me feel so incompetent now..

Now that I can barely raise my grade up to a B.. and when I’m probably one of the stupidest in the class.. My Asian powers fail me..

After school my mom, sister, and I headed to San Diego for [my cousin/ family friend] Anna’s confirmation. I still think the kids who get confirmed here in the states have it easy.. I got slapped by the priest when I was confirmed back in the Philippines.. Tsk.

This post is all over the places.. Sorry. It’s almost 3 in the morning..
