Just updating

The past couple of weeks have been a whirlwind of activities. I had a couple of "first times" actually. One is my first time to join a singing competition (wow! my heart still does a little flip whenever i mention that!). Yes..a 100% real singing competition! I'm happy to say that this time..I'm not even kidding! (Ok, OA na..haha) It's just that I still can't believe that someone like me who has zero talent when it comes to performing on-stage has been given a chance to sing a piece by David Cook. Well, it's not actually a song by david cook, it was just based from his song "always be my baby." The fun part is that the song was translated in Filipino. Surprisingly, it turned out to be pretty damn good! Haha.....Ok, confession time! I wasn't singing alone, we were a group...but it can still be considered as my debut performance. LOL! Unfortunately, we didn't win the contest (even though I thought we were so good and I expected that we would bag the 2nd place).. but it's okay because it was worth the shot. But the best part is that some people actually thought I sang very well!!! And believe me, they're not just saying that to boost my confidence because I can feel that they actaully mean it. Can you believe it??? Me??? A good singer??? Get out of here! Haha.. So anyway, here's the lyrics of the song (I don't have the copy w/ me while i'm typing this bec. i can still remember every word):

Tayo'y naging isa
Sa sandaling panahon
Akala ko'y di magwawakas
Na ikaw ay akin lang
Gusto mong lumayo
Hahayaan kita
Dahil alam ko sa puso ko
Pag-ibig nati'y di magwawakas

Mananatili ka sa buhay ko
At ganun din ako sa iyo
Di mo ako matatakasan
Dahil ikaw lang ang aking mahal
At maglalagi
Di mabubura damdaming ito
Di mo ako mapapasuko
O, dahil ikaw lang ang aking mahal

Di ako iiyak
Di kita pipigilan
Kung gusto mong lumayo
Di ako tututol sa iyo
Sigurado akong
magbabalik ka din
Dahil alam ko sa puso mo
Pag-ibig nati'y di magwawakas

Mananatili ka sa buhay ko
At ganun din ako sa iyo
Di mo ako matatakasan
Dahil ikaw lang ang aking mahal
At maglalagi
Di mabubura damdaming ito
Di mo ako mapapasuko
O, dahil ikaw lang ang aking mahal



Okay, so my second "first time" is my failure in PE class. Yes, I wrote it down correctly..I failed a practical exam in PE class. Weird, huh? Some kids get A's in PE..and i'm definitely not one of them. What can I say?? I suck at PE. I'm not much of a dancer, let alone an athlete. I was shocked for about two minutes, and then after that, my life went back to normal again (it is very unlikely for me to recover fast after receiving a failing grade in any subject). So what? It's only P.E. class for god's sake! 2 units (not that i underestimate 2 units, but let's face it..failure in a 2-unit subject is not something to be suicidal about)! Well, let's admit it, everybody has their own weaknesses. I guess I just have to try my best on out midterms exams next week. Good luck to me!!!!
