The UPCAT Experience

The UPCAT results were released early this morning. Actually, I thought it was going to be released tomorrow but I guess, UP suddenly changed their mind. :P I checked my result online and I swear! It took...awhile before I found out what my status is. Their site was pretty slow because a lot of people was checking it too. Some of my classmates even went to UP just so they could see it. As for me, I didn't go there because I didn't want to be a victim of a stampede. :)) LOL! I'm kidding. What I mean is that a lot of people must be in there and I just didn't want to add up to their number. XD

So after watching the play at school, I fired up my browser at home and checked UPCAT online. I clicked on letter 'F'. After reloading the page twice, a list of people's surname starting with 'F' appeared on the list. I scanned the page until I reach the page where my name was supposed to appear.

Apparently, it did not appear. And when your name does not appear, it means that you did not get in.

I did not feel hurt nor did I cry; although I have to admit that I got a bit disappointed with myself. But anyway, I did not ponder on it for too long. I was able to get over it quickly. I was like "okay, I didn't get in." I closed the website and I just opened my Plurk and Multiply accounts. It's just as if nothing happened.

I guess the reason why it was easy for me to accept that fact was because I knew all along that it was going to happen. So yea, I was not really surprised by it anymore. I just thought that maybe God has better plans for me that's why I didn't get in UP. Sounds cliche' but it actually makes sense. On the brighter side, at least I passed 2 out of the 3 college entrance exams that I took. I guess that's enough already and the most important thing is that my future is safe already. :) Besides, it's not the end of everything yet.

Anyway, I want to thank all of those people who gave me hope when I was feeling nervous about it. I may have not got in UP, but really, thanks for the encouragements. :) You guys know who you are. ^^

So, there goes my sharing for the night. Anyway, before I totally wrap it up, I just want to say CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL WHO PASSED THE UPCAT! Cheers to all of the new Iskolar ng Bayan.

Breakdown & Cry

Seriously, I think I'm going to burst out in tears soon enough. I don't know what to do. I am so confused. I don't even know what I should be anymore. I feel so pressured! It's driving me nuts. I never thought that college entrance exam results would cause me stress. :|

False Alarm.

Well, well, well. The UPCAT results did not come out today. We've all just learned awhile ago that they will release it on the 3rd week of January instead. Wow! I don't know but that sure is a lot of suspense. :)) And it's making us so damn nervous.

Anyway, finally! I was able to change the layout of my blog! New look for the new year. I know the New Year was like a week ago already but so what? In a way, it's still the new year. Right? Haha.

Oh and my Cbox has already returned. If you want to exchange links, feel free to post there. :) I also added a new feature on my blog. Thanks to playlist.com for that one. I hope you enjoy listening to whatever song is playing. Haha.

My Very First Post for the Year

Belated Merry Christmas and Happy 2009 everyone! :D

I was not able to blog during the break since I got busy helping around the house during Christmas Eve and for the rest of the holiday season, I was out of the house. So, obviously now, the holidays are over and we're back to our usual routine. Our classes resumed last Jan. 5 and yea, it's back to normal (as in the usual stuff in school. so yea, count in STRESS there).

So, I've only got around 2 months left before I leave high school. They were right. It was so quick! And later on this month, college entrance exams results will be out. In fact, the University of the Philippines will release the results tomorrow, Jan. 9, 2009. A lot of my batchmates are going to be awake until 12mn just to see the results. I was considering to do that but...I don't know. Maybe I'll just check it when I get back home. Anyway, we're half day tomorrow since it's a Friday. And then on Monday, Jan. 12, 2009, the University of Sto. Tomas will release the results.

God. I feel nauseous. :|
