however, that didn't work too.
don't ask me why. (",)

for my sake, i'd like to request everyone not to read the past two posts. i happen to believe that i was writing those words when my mind was in the subconscious stage. i presume i only have a vague memory of such, and thus should not be credible in any way. thank you.
anyway. the past three days came so fast, i couldn't believe that a lot of things happened in such a short span of time....
tuesday was research day. from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm, except for brief lapses, half of our class came and went through the principal office's door, finishing our respective research projects.
it was not fun, i tell you, staring at a 55-or-so page report which included hard-to-comprehend words, apparently-no-non-sense numbers and figures, and then looking at your back only to find out that everyone was doing the same thing. add to that the persistent ringing of the principal's telephone and her not-so-funny jokes... hell it was.
the day ended with most of us either having back spasms, bells ringing in our ears, hand arthritis, blurry eyesight or mental sleepiness, thus disabling me from elaborating more, so please accept my apologies.
wednesday is for harry potter fanatics. we watched a two-and-a-quarter hours of film reel of "harry potter and the goblet of fire." it cost 180 bucks, and did not really live to my expectations. i'm sorry... but it made me realize all the more that these teachers try to teach us economics the wrong way around...
today, thursday, was... well, a normal school day, perhaps. you know, the typical did-you-study-and-do-your-homework school day. and seemingly, that would also be the case for tomorrow.
anyway, for the moment it ends here, while i let tomorrow speak for itself. (",)
g_b got tired of senseless ranting by 19:03. |
it was just about now when i noticed that people write things about themselves in the profile section of their online diaries. then i looked at my former blog sites, and, it was like... whoa, am i really that weird?
so maybe it's time for a bit of change, a touch of conventionalism. for once, at least.
well, you see the guy in the picture? yeah, that spectacled boy running in haste? that's supposed to be me, j. gabriel de leon y limpin... what does j stand for, you ask? it's for me to know and for you to find out if you still don't know.
i'm a 16-year old boy who wears a pair of glasses, sports unkempt hair, and usually dons loose clothes. i might look a bit plump in the drawing, but in actuality i'm a tall, dark, skinny, frail guy who always forgets to drink his milk and take his breakfast. up to know i still wonder how come i stand at five-feet-eight-inches but weigh only 102 pounds...
way back then, i was a small, plump kid who showed a lot of promise. during parties, my mom and dad would usually strut around and boast of how intelligent, how healthy, how handsome i was. for eight or so years, that had been the case. i got my share of respect, like this little prince...
then came a heartbreak, and high school.
inexplicably, i suddenly became a complacent and idle guy who fell in love with my personal computer too much, even to the point of forgetting if i already had dinner. i was transformed into a student ridiculously full of potential but never getting to use the stuff. i developed a very healthy sleeping habit that made me garner the honorable distinction of being the student earliest for the nth class.
high school went on, heartbreaks pursued at will, and down to oblivion went that once promising young kid. so much for the pride of my parents.
today, i still look back to him. in fact, i'm trying to revive him, after four years of dormancy, or something more like stagnation. impossible, yes, but it's worth a try. too late, maybe, but i'll prove that it's not.
