MAD: Chapter 5 (January 5)

January 5: A Memorable Day, Midterms Day 1, Grahams, and Goodbyes

Apparently, this is a best day of mine. And hey! My new year really started with a blast!

That is because of the morning radio show that I listen to every morning. The radio show is called "The Morning Rush". And they have a good topic for today, even though Gino is really late for the show. Their topic for today is "Things I do when my crush is around". And they also spare time for someone to call them. All the caller have to do was to tell a message for somebody they have a crush on, or someone they love, or for their ex, you get my point. And they have a rule that the caller have a choice if he/she wants to make himself/herself (the caller) anonymous and their recipient anonymous, or say the name of the caller and make his/her recipient anonymous, or make the caller anonymous and say the name of the recipient, or the caller say his/her name and the name of his/her recipient.

I tried to call them during their top 10 portion, and Bea said, after Gino said the top entry, that their phone has been ringing. And yes... I'm the one that making their phone ring. Until they entered that potion, the "message your crush" portion. As I hear the ringing on the handset, it came to a stop, and heard some air and familiar voices. It was Gino and Bea! I can't believe that I could actually talk to them! I am so nervous when they picked up the phone and I am talking to them. Gino asked if I will remain anonymous or not. I chose to say my name. No, not my actual name, but my alias: Chiyo Amami. And I remain my recipient anonymous. All that I have said is that we know that we're the only ones who knows about me liking her. And that I understand her response regarding the letter I gave her. But there's a thing that I haven't yet told her upon hearing her response: that I am willing to wait for her.

Gino and Bea kind of amazed and surprised my willingness of waiting for her. And they also said that "waiting is really hard." Can't help but agree with them. But yes, as long as I have determination and willingness to wait for the girl, that 'hard' part will just be a word.

And as I said thank you and put the handset down, and cranked up the volume of my radio, I started to jump for joy. Mixtures of romantic excitement, nervousness, and happiness are what I feel at that time.

And I can't still believed that I had a chance to talk to them.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

I headed to school. I'm still listening to The Morning Rush and chilling inside the LRT. Laughed on some of the entries given, and jammed through some good music they play.

As I got into the school, and headed on my first class, I'm so surprised that my classmates are now taking their midterm exam. I didn't review for this subject (which is 3D Modelling), but I'm still poker face about it. When I got my paper and headed on my seat, I started the test. To my surprise, even though I didn't review for this, I find the exam on this so easy.

I finished answering all of them in less than an hour and headed outside. Funny thing is that I forgot our professor's surname and the subject code. yet, I still passed my paper and headed out.

Also, our last subject, 2D Animation, also had a surprise Midterm Exam! And I just said to myself that this is where I'm going to really f**k up.

And I am not wrong. Out of 58 items, I only got 34. I felt bad, but satisfied at the same time.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

As we finished our film viewing of the projects made by others, I headed out first than my colleagues. It is because I haven't yet given the treat I'm holding to the girl that I like.

The treat I'm giving her is my homemade Grahams. It also contains a little note on it.

As I headed down, I see her classroom. I thought that their classes started when I saw their prof (which is also a professor of ours) started teaching. But to my surprise, I saw her, sitting outside with some of her classmates (which are also classmates of mne, in a way).

I headed to her place and greeted her. As she saw me, she started to fish out something inside her bag. And it was the promised exchange present she told me when I gave her a Christmas gift. So, we exchanged again. Grahams from me and present from her.

We gave ourselves a high five. We both smiled.

As I started to leave, I almost forgot to said "thank you"to her upon receiving this gift. I turned around and said "Thank you."

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Today is also something sad. Because today will be the last day of an old classmate of ours here in this country. They will be leaving for Australia later at 6AM.

It's a sad day for us because we planned to meet him today and... we didn't. The hectic schedules made this.We supposedly see one one last time today, but didn't happen.

Then, I started to chat our group and said that we can't meet him due to hectic schedules. I also apologized because of it. He said that it's okay. He also have hectic schedules today and he will make up with us when he gets home.

Yes. It's a sad day for us. We're going to miss a dear friend of ours.

So, Owen. Have a safe trip, dude.
