Grabe, that exam was a killer! X( But I was thankfully able to beg Bianca to loan me her laptop, despite the stone-clad rule imposed by our parents upon her receipt of the said gadget: that Bianca cannot and should NEVER lend the laptop to any of her sisters. But this was a very critical situation, so exceptions must be made. Truth be told, if I owned the laptop, I wouldn't lend it either, save for the direst situation.
And as it turns out, good things can come out of evil people's evil deeds. ^^ Because I was to be lugging around the precious laptop, I was therefore not allowed to commute to school though no one could take me to school. Hehe.. Small perks. ^^ For the first time in my life, I drove a car to school! And I was so nervous about having the laptop and the car that I didn't even feel the exam anymore. ^^; I kept imagining coming back to an empty parking lot and having to call and tell my dad that the car was stolen. @_@ I even finished the exam early just so I could get home early. Rarely happens with me. ^^;
And most of my batchmates (yes, an entire batch) also thought to borrow laptops. Hehe, the floors of the classroom had the most dangerous looking bunch of octopus wires I've ever seen. Even our proctor had a comment or two about the logistics problem of our exam. ^^ People brought extension cords and everything, so almost every inch of the floor was covered. Imagine, my whole batch taking exams with laptops plugged into only 4 outlets. I really thought something would explode, so of course, since I was much too worried to risk plugging in Bianca's laptop into this electro-hazard, I was pacing myself by the number of minutes left on her laptop's batteries. See how careful I am? XD But I swear, that was one dangerous exam. @_@
And looking back, I don't even remember the exam much, save for the fact that I can't say I did well. The worry over material possessions while you're taking an exam can be distracting. ^^;
Hehe... I was texting Vigile yesterday that I couldn't give her the Bo's GCs cause the two of us didn't have cars for the day, and turns out that I (the more unlikely one) had a car afterall. Labo. ^^
But I don't think this will be a regular thing. ^^ I was just backing out our automatic Toyota (I've only driven an automatic 3 times in my entire life) around lunchtime, and I didn't even get past the gate of our garage and my mom was screaming at me already for my bad driving. :p Seriously screaming. I dropped her off in Philcoa for some Divisoria errand, took the exam and got home alive. Hehe.. Pat in the back, pat in the back. XD

Oh, and I'd like to report on the b*dyp*inting event of my other *cough* BA org. There were also only 3 contestants, with female models. Compared to the 7 deadly sins, the designs here were.. disappointing. :( Nothing at all compared to the entries we had. I didn't even really know which to vote for in audience choice. (The price for audience choice was P2000 WORTH OF GIFTPACKS. Why didn't we think of that? -_-) And the overall winner had on more costume than body paint. I was seriously disappointed that that entry won. XP Grabe, only her legs, face and arms were painted, the rest was covered in a big costume with wings. And it won. @_@

Oh yes. I'm currently watching this heart-wrenching anime Jyu oh sei. T_T I don't know the ending yet, but so far I like it. ^^ I think it's from the makers of Escaflowne. I watch it once a week, so I can't be accused of slacking off this time. This is midterms week for me after all. @_@

Oh! Trivia! Trivia!
The guy who played Morita in the Honey and Clover movie with Sho of Arashi is the same actor who played... *drumroll* ...Casshern! *GASP* Although I have to say that he looked better as Tetsuya than as Morita. XD And the villian in Casshern looks like Dante from Devil may Cry. :p
