The Benildanze Moments!

Whew. What a day. 14th day of December. That is, the new moment I shall never forget…

Actually, at that day, I didn’t even showed up on my class until DYNAREL. I was too busy to attend at that time because I am finishing the MovieMaker that was assigned to be by the Boss. (Who could that be? Hmmm… Let me think.)

I am very disappointed to know that I am not yet paid on my debt to Akie. In fact, I didn’t even talked to her. (That means, kung nakausap ko man siya, well… yun ay dahil kinukulit na nya ako. That’s it.)

The bell rang as I went to our classroom. It was already our COMSK2X, the third period. I was so shocked to discover that Hervie, my partner (in the proposal), has been gone for already two periods! Kaya ayun, wala na akong choice but to continue the proposal by myself.

It so happened that while I was eating my lunch (ooohh…. yummy!) at the CSB caf (shortened for Cafeteria), Akie’s friend She and Evan approached me. They also, even asked me when would I pay her. I told them after the 15th. (Oh, I hope so! I don’t even know when would my Mom get her allowance. I don’t want for my Dad to pay for this, because, I don’t think he is interested. And besides, kung hindi ako nakapagbayad that time, kukulitin na naman nila ako until now!)

Exasperated, I went to the ComLab 6. I stayed there for almost two hours. Two hours — yun pala, nakalimot ako na meron palang practice ng 11:30 sa classroom! Thanks to Oti — kung hindi dahil sa kanya di ko namalayang wala pala akong costume na dala.

I went up to the Mutien Marie Building fifth floor, and I saw them already done with the practice. After a while, pinauwi na nila ako when they knew that I intentionally left the house without bringing some of the costumes itself. I am wondering, “Why did Karen told me that I have to pay them P100 for the leggings though they told me before that I am not? Ang alam ko lang na babayaran ko ay ang P90 na utang ko kay Akie. Naguguluhan tuloy ako!”

Ah basta, P90 lang ang babayaran ko! Ang susundin ko ay yung usapan nung nakaraan. Ang gulo kasi eh! I don’t want to increase my debt. Hindi lang si Akie ang inutangan ko. Pati na si Alstr.

Sobrang nahihiya na ako eh. Tama na. Ano na lang ang sasabihin nila sa akin? Na wala akong isang salita? Na hindi ako sumusunod sa usapan? Di ba? Hindi yata ako makakapayag!!!!!

Back to the house at Sta. Ana, nag-change outfit na rin ako. Sobrang naiinitan ako sa suot kong long sleeves na turtle-neck pa!! Kainis!

After an hour, I am already at Benilde. I saw Cha (nice Cha!) with his “dabarkads” eating at the Caf. He was the one who tell me where the others went. When I found them, we went to the Plaza V immediately. Kami na lang pala ang wala pa sa assigned cottage namin.

Umalis ako sandali sa cottage after makapag-ayos ng kaunti. Nag-make up, then bumaba sa CR sa basement. Kinuha ko yung sorpresa ko.

Pag-akyat ko, ako ang na-shocked (imbis na sila) kasi nakita ni Miss Lucy (yung prof namin sa PETWODA) ang new look ko. Hohohoho.

After several hours of waiting, the Benildanze starts. Naabutan pa namin yung Angelus kaya tumigil pa kami for a few moments.

We were the last to present that night. Nakakuha kami ng suporta sa profs naming sina Miss Malou (COMSK2X), at Sir Albert (MANALOG). In fact, kay Sir Albert marami kaming kuha. Pati video (ia-upload ko next time) ng sayaw namin ipapakita ko sa inyo!!!

Although in fact, we lost the competition, na-enjoy kami. Hindi nasayang ang pinaghirapan namin. Ang sabi nga sa’min ni Sophie eh, “I-expect nyo nang matatalo na tayo…” At yun nga. At least, we exerted our efforts and we did our job well done.

We still celebrated for that. Kasama ko sina Sophie (of course), Oti, Daphne, Calvin, Jo, and Brye. Although nandun din sina Kha (Karen for short), Alvin at Kenneth, hiwalay sila ng table sa’min. Grabe nakakaawa talaga ako that time. Ang na-order ko lang ay ang Vanilla Sundae. I was so shocked when Brye gave me a P50-bill and said, “Bumili ka ng Coke Float at Burger, dali!” Ohhh… grabe nakakatuwa talaga!!!! I didn’t expect it. Thanks Brye!! Thanks sa lahat ng nakasama ko kagabi!! Love y’all!!

Well so far, after I got home, I dressed up and went to bed and slept. I’m very very tired.

Zzzzzz……
