Sorry
Dear Readers,
I would like to say sorry for the lack of posts for the past week even though very significant events in my life have taken place. Once again, I didn't have the heart to write. Maybe this is due to the lack of energy upon arriving in fron of this computer. School activities have taken most of my time and energy which leaves me none for blog writings. I want to post about the four major types of persons for the benefit and entertainment of everyone. For the next few days or even weeks, I will be training for the parliamentary procedure contest with some of my fellow fourth years and my sister. I will also be busy trying to cope up with school work. So I apologize if my blog will be stagnant for the next few weeks. I also changed the layout because I was so tired of seeing the word love all over again whenever I open my blog. I'm also sorry if the tagboard does not function. I have no idea why so I'm still trying to find a way to make it show. Thank You, That's All!
Love,
Duerrexoxo

It's Too Much!
Well, after all the things that happened for the past week, here I am still strong, I think! Anyway, I won't go into details about the Sabayang Bigkas because it was really something. It's the first time I cried in Copernicus due to some selfish teacher who must not be named and due to all the things that went wrong that day. I won't also go into detail about what happened after, when we watched the movie My Super Ex-Girlfriend and what happened today during practice and the Ninoy Activity. Comment on the Ninoy activity: everyone was wearing yellow, Ma'am Vidal was wearing pink! What a way to show that she's pro-Marcos but hey, that's her opinion and let's just respect that. Anyway, I think Copernicus is finally functioning as a section. Of course, aside from those few or should I say aside from THE CRAB. Anyhow, I'm not in the mood for blog writings now so please bear with this short and nonsense of a post. I've already seen Dead Poets' Society and it's good. I was teary-eyed when Neil died and when Anderson stepped up his desk and the others followed. Well, that's all I can share for now. I'm still not in the mood, too exhausted I guess but soon enough I have something to post about the 4 types of people, sanguine, melancholic, choleric and phlegmatic so watch out for that. Toodles!

My Personal Essay
Are there any significant experiences you have had, or accomplishments you have realized, that have helped to define you as a person?
Klyonne Whannica Mari Vicentina Dela Cruz, what will come into your mind when you hear this strange but unique name? Does the image of a sweet, innocent girl pop into your mind? Or perhaps a nerdy looking student? What’s in a name? Does ones name define his or her whole personality? Isn’t a name just a label of the true person who is inside?
A person cannot be defined merely by words because one’s personality is built since the moment he is born. With Klyonne Whannica Mari, the whole thing started the moment she realized that she wanted to become a lawyer. At the age of 8, she has already recognized her dream, her goal in life. At such a young age, how did I realize what I wanted to become? That time, I did not even know the real meaning of law. I was simply amazed; mesmerized by the fictitious lawyers I have read in books and have seen in television. I have this attitude of never giving up on what I think is right. I fight tooth and nil for something that I strongly believe in. To be a lawyer would give me a positive outlet for this attitude of mine. But one’s personality is not only built through the foundation of his or her Elementary years. Like clay, the real image of Klyonne was moulded during her Secondary Level.
In one word, I could describe myself as a MaScian. What is a MaScian? A MaScian, according to “outsiders”, people who see us but do not know us, is an intelligent person who has the excellence to be part of Manila Science High School. One may think that being a MaScian is just all about brains, intelligence and academic excellence, but those are not just the factors that deem us different or special. One shouldn’t just be academically inclined but also socially responsible. I could say that I have a holistic personality, having both a tough mind and a tender heart. I value both my academic career and personal interests because I am able to set goals for myself, achieve them but enjoy what I am doing and have fun along the way.
I have become a MaScian in mind, heart, and soul. When I entered Manila Science three years ago, I had a different personality. Along my journey as a MaScian, I have been molded into a new person. I have come to think differently. I view things in a better perspective, critically and analytically. I have started to feel how an individual in her prime should feel. I balance my emotions and insights making sure that the head and the heart works at the same time, not letting either one take over.
A MaScian, as a whole, is a unique person, who has a mind and a heart, given the right, necessary tools and knowledge by a prestigious school, tried and tested by time, to guide him/her in the journey ahead. I am a MaScian, the reasons justify who I am.
High School has unlocked new-fangled doors. People’s firsts seem to come and go. Everyone encounters and explores new endeavours. In the past 3 years, certain incidents took place that made me grow not just physically or mentally but also emotionally, morally and spiritually. Every hardship I have overcome enabled me to grow as a person. Every rock and pebble that stood in my way became a milestone in my life. Emotional heartaches woke me to the pain that loss and failure can cause. Every punch and bruise that I received through the roller coaster ride of my life inch-by-inch shaped me to the person who I am today. Family has been my number one support group who have helped me through these fires of life.
I could say that now I am mature enough to choose and decide that Ateneo de Manila is the university that could provide me the most excellent education and the apt tools I need in my journey through life. Everything I have withstood and accomplished are all for this one important decision that will determine my future.
So after 15 years, 8 months and 15 days, Klyonne Whannica Mari is not just a name or a label but is a person with a heart, a mind and a soul of her own. Unique as her name may be, more unique is her personality.

Superman
"Superman"
Girl I feel you trembling in my arms Tell me what is wrong I know somebody hurt you, didn't stay And took your faith away Broke your heart, let you down The love you thought you found But that was then, and this is now I gotta make you believe somehow
[Chorus] Girl, don't be afraid to put your trust In someone who Who will love you, love you completely Take the time, do it right Make you forget those tears you cried It'll be alright Have no fear, your superman is here
Don't let life slip by you Give me a chance, come and take my hand Let my love surround you, throw away The pain of yesterday Girl you've gotta try to put the past behind Cause now i'm in your life It's destiny, girl can't you see God sent you here to me
[Chorus] You don't have to be alone no more my baby Just try to forget about the things that made you crazy I'll be right there when you fall Anytime at all
[Chorus]
This song is from Marj's blog and like her, I wish sum1 would sing this to me.

CLICK!!!
Click is one of the best family movies, EVER! When Abychu saw the trailer while we were watching Just My Luck, she immediately fell in love with the movie. After that weekend, she told me that she already saw the movie using a pirated DVD. To no surprise, she cried, but she didn't just cry in one of the dramatic scenes. She cried throughout the movie. I never knew that I would also cry and really be touched by that movie. We were supposed to watch it last Friday. Caze was inviting us but everyone was already tired after a whole day of practice, so we just went to SM Manila to play Revo and Mainiax. Yesterday, we finished early at about 3:30 PM and we decided to watch it, finally. Trix, Caze, Gaux, Pau, Ninyo and I went to Rob to watch it. One of our mistakes was watching it right in the middle and just repeating it. Well, at first, I didn't understand what was happening because we walked in right in the middle of the movie. It was funny but then when it was the scene wherein his father died, I was already starting to get sad. During the scene where his daughter called her stepfather "Dad" I almost lost it. When Adam Sandler was running after his children, that's when the tears started rolling. I completely lost it when he fell down and was calling to his son and they can't hear him. I thought it would be really tragic and they won't see him but then his son faced his direction and they all ran after him. That was such a scene. I was so touched when he gave the note to his ex-wife. "Will you still love me in the morning?" "Forever and Ever, Babe." Oh, well. When the movie finished, we were all excited to see the start of the movie. The start was totally hilarious. Even Ninyo was laughing and that's something because he doesn't really react when watching movies. All in all, I enjoyed the experience. The movie was fabulous. The company was great. It was the first time I watched a movie with Coper. Karl and Blessie were supposed to go with us but they decided to go home instead. Ehem. Did they really go home?? Ahehe. Just Kidding. Anyway, hands down to Adam Sandler and hands down to Click!! Amazing!

I'm Back!
After weeks of being GC, I'm now back as a normal person. What can I say? Our Fourth Year periodic test is the worst periodic test I've ever taken. English was a drag because erasures are not allowed. I did not finish 10 points of the Physics test. I did not finish 15 points of Math. It was the first time that my head ached during the Social Studies exam. The Humanities periodic test was out of this world. All my hours of studying were of no use. I haven't slept properly for about two weeks now. Anyhow, it was the first time that I was able to answer the Comp. Sci test without doubts that my answers were correct. It was also the first time that I found the Chemistry test easy. With regards to the UPCAT test, well, it was easier than I expected. I was shocked to find Filipino but it was alright. My head ached after taking the Math test. It was all basic but it was quite long. I can't believe it was all over. It is the test that will determine my future. After all of these events, there's still the Sabayang Pagbigkas to prepare for so another week of sleepless nights, another week of pressure and body exhaustion. That's all I can say for now. Toodles!
