i’ve heard about the holidailies a day or two before it turned december 1. i really really wanted to, uh, participate (?) and update my blog everyday for a month. but when i started to get excited and all, i realized that i would be joining a press conference for a week. ill be stuck in another place without an internet connection, let alone a computer. so, i’ve been away for seven days, stagnating any progress in any of my blogs.
well, now i am back with good tidings. i sort of won. i was included in the top ten. there were 50 participants in my category and that made me really happy. i wasnt even contented with what i wrote! the topic was to present a very serious matter, one that shook our whole country and concerned about 80 million people, in a light and a humurous manner. we werent given any information sheets about it so we really have to ransack our brains for any detail we ever heard about what happened. well, i am soooo grateful to GOD for watching over me and guiding me as always. thank You God! i love You!
furthermore, four more of my schoolmates won in the press conference, which was really good since we only have 8 delegates from our school. i am so proud of our team! we were all in a state of euphoria after the awarding ceremonies. our smiles seemed to be glued in our faces. i would forever remember that moment. really.
moving on to the other part of the event, i learned something new due to the excess time we had for the competition was stretched for a week and we just have to write for an hour. i can finally solve a 3×3x3 rubik’s cube. i am averaging 4 minutes at the moment and i am practicing so that i would eventually be capabale of doing it in less than a minute. hopefully. (dare to dream! lol) i also found out that there is about 4.5 quintillion combinations in a 3×3x3 cube. whew! just thinking about it give me the chills. imagine the big figure!
hmm..what more can i say? ah..i just renewed my being sociable character while we were there. when i was a kid i never had problems in making friends, i guess every child haven’t got any anyway. but as i age up, i became extremely shy to the point that i almost never speak up when in a new company. ssadly, some took it as i am snobbish or rude or whatever. im just shy, people! but anyway, back to the story…i managed to get back to my old self with the help of a sixth grader. she hepled me to trust again in new faces, to reach out back when someone else is offering a hand of friendship. thanks rob..you’ll always be our pare koi! lol
well, after being away for so long, im back and even though i know that i’ve got as much chance of accomplishing the challenge as the chance of me being included in the nationals, ill still try hard to update my wordpress everyday it it is possible.
kudos teammates!
