2 april 2008Next year their gone. Next year we'll be few. Next year it would be hard for us to accept that things won't be same again. During their graduation, it was just a normal day for me.
I knew that that day was a start of a new change but it didn't really quite hit me. Even though I gave them hugs saying, "I'll miss you so much! Congratulations!" It wasn't in my mind yet not until I went home and logged into the computer and viewed our photos I just shot.
Then it all started coming to me, this is it. That's the time I realized they won't take the journey with us next year. We were on our own now. They were ahead and finished. While we have another lap to run. Yes they may visit the school and all that.
But the fact of them not being is just so different. It was hard. Most of the graduates are special to me. Most of them played something in my life that I will never forget. Each of them is different in a special way. I shall miss them so. But we all have to move on, don't we?
Next year is our time. Our last year in GBA. Time flies really fast and I couldn't just stop it or even pause it for a while in order to feel it. Sometimes, I wish I could just be stuck in a time warp or something where a moment can just be played over and over again. But we really all have to move on. We have to take each day as it comes and live it for the Lord. To all graduates this year 2007-2008! Live your life for God! Live it to the fullest!

Yesterday after graduation, I went to the Internet and found out that Johanna and Justin were online. I chatted with Johanna and Justin at the same time but different windows.
Not until I started dreaming.... Johanna and I were discussing our future plans in life. And I said that my dream was to build the second 6 star hotel in the world. My Hotel would be a joint business with Jacky.
Johanna would be my architect. While Jonna will be my interior designer. Johanna said that I'd have to have big budget so that she could do everything she wanted with my hotel. Minutes later, I, Justin and Johanna were on a conference discussing my future hotel.
Well, Justin would be incharge of the technology in my Hotel. Like automatic comfort rooms, doors and all that. Everything in my hotel will be automatic and all under the hands of Justin. Johanna on the other hand will be the architect on the project, I explained that I wanted my hotel's architecture to be multi-cultural.
Justin said he wanted it modern. (like I said it's going to be old) I meant a modernized multi-cultural hotel. Marga, will be in charge of the menu in my hotel. Justin said that he'll be the one to take good care of that. ahahaha Alyssa, will be my publicist.
She wants to be a journalist one day so she's going to write about my hotel in her magazine. Cedes, hahaha head maid! hahaha... were so mean! But hey, everyone one needs someone in charge of the automatic cleaning department in my hotel.
Isaiah, on the legal side will handle the hotel's papers. (This was suppose to be teacher amleth but then I realized, she would be busy running the country that time) Victor este Nathaniel, according to Justin he will be the DJ in the radio of my hotel. Jairo, there was a big pause on what Jairo will do but then I thought he'll have his exhibits on my hotel.
Nirel, she'll put up a museum in my hotel consisting of old artifacts and hidden treasures she found. Cathy, I said she's going to be my dentist for my hotel but Johanna said she'll be the sports model for the hotel. So she may be the head sports president in my hotel's club.
ahaha Marcel, she's going to be my accountant and treasurer. mmm.... then we discussed that there would be wine bars in every corner (Johanna said that) that's where Jommel's going to be. Justin volunteered to have his own daycare center in my hotel. It will be called, Justin's Daycare Center. hahahaha

Wow. Who would ever thought that I could make it. I never really thought my piece, "Little Bolero" could actually place!
Cause I wasn't really completely prepared. My timing wasn't perfect yet. I needed to work on it. I have no idea why I changed the tempo two days before the recital. I think I had too much practice in making the piece very fast. Well, it was allegro wasn't it?
Good thing my teacher was there to help me out. You see three weeks before the recital my teacher was changed because my old teacher had to review for her nursing board exam. Well in that three weeks we only had one lesson with my new teacher.
She was sick the first week and then the second week was our lesson and then the third well she was busy. That was the time when my teacher took over and heard me play my piece.
WAH! What happened! She was kinda of surprised why my tempo was changed and all that. I was going too fast and didn't pause at the right notes. I had only two days to practice it! So I did. Well, I really thought I was going flunk. Then it was the recital, I played.
Boy, my hands felt new on the piano! It's like my fingers weren't ready to play it. My fingers were like weak. The first part's tempo wasn't really the right sound. But then the time when I had to go back to that part, I played it the right way. There was a time when I pressed the wrong note on the piano.
It was BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My performance that day haunted me the whole day even the next day actually. SURPRISINGLY, while I was in church, I received a phone call from an unknown number, when I answered it the caller said, "Shannah this is Teacher Kristine. Punta ka dito sa CAP you have an award." I was like WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "Huh, sure po kayo?" "Oo naman no. Be here mga 1pm ha, congrats" "Sige po tnx po bye bye." I WAS SO SPEECHLESS! IT was like WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't expect that! I really didn't.
It was like, are they sure?????? Esther and I were the ones that went to CAP my parents had their Married fellowship so they couldn't go with me. AFTER A VERY LOOONG WAIT. Then it was there, I WAS SO NERVOUS! 4th place goes to... it wasn't me 3rd place goes to... surprisingly it wasn't me 2nd place goes to Shannah Fiasitao! Yehey!
Whahaha I really thought my parents were going to pick me up but no I had to walk going to church wearing a skirt, heels and the trophy in my hand.
