the perils of

This weekend marks the last week of classes. I had two exams, one for Biochem and one for Environmental Sciences. I did pretty bad on the Biochem test (well I guess a B isn't so bad, BUT I REALLY WANTED AN A!!!) and as for the ES test, I'll know my scores on Monday. Ugh. Monday. Such a crucial day. It will decide my fate for the next three days, whether I'll be in Batangas with my block, or in school with my ES book. (Speaking of the ES book, why on Earth did the ES department print it double-spaced? Think of all the trees they could've saved with 1.5 spacing. Maybe they were doing it to be ironic.) Anyway. Summer classes are coming to a close, and most of the Health Sci juniors have been spending lots of time creating a Biochem board game. Yeah, you heard me right. For our Biochem project, we're required to make a board or card game involving Biochemistry principles. The project is equivalent to one long test, so you can imagine how seriously we're taking ...

Last Friday was my high school classmate Jenica's eighteenth birthday! She's the first person in our class to ever have a debut. You can imagine how sad it was for Jason, Karen, Michael, Joseph and I to have to miss out on the celebration because of class (and expensive plane tickets), so we shot a video for her as a surprise to make up for it. Yeah, it's that "friend's video" I've been talking about in my previous posts. Badly edited by yours truly. They played it during her actual party, and from what I hear, she was really touched. Mission accomplished. :) (Edit: Behold my discomfort at having a camera aimed at my head.)
