wishful thinking

wishful thinking

if a genie came to me and agreed to grant me a wish (just one, i don't really need three), i'd wish it rains until early morning tomorrow so that the streets of Manila all get flooded and our classes will be cancelled.

and just when i ended that paragraph above, the rain was reduced into a soft drizzle, which I could have sworn good as not raining at all. bummer! come to think of it, usually, it's when we wish too hard, that things don't actually happen. parang nang-aasar na ewan. i guess, it's nature's way of check-and-balance-ing things. reminding us of that "we don't always get what we want" load of bull*.

just this morning i wished (i even prayed for crying out loud!), that the lab exam would be

easy and that i won't get too many errors doing procedures blah blah. pero pucha pag kuha ko ng papel para dun sa written part, nanghina na ako agad question 2 pa lang. who would have thought they'd give computations for the written part? and everyone knows how i suck at Math. numbers make me anxious, my mind goes blank whenever i see too many of them. luckily, the test only had a couple of items you'd need to compute for. i couldn't remember if i answered that question or just left it blank. either way, mali naman pareho. so, why bother?

and then i wished the practical (move system) exam would be easier. but no! it was so darn frustrating. and dare i recall the gruesome events of that hour and a half of my life. i shall not speak of the horror that is our lab exam. way too traumatic!

still unrecovered from the events of the day, some of my groupmates and i headed to BLISS at Guadalupe for a report we're having despite rains and having only one umbrella for all of us. what a nice day for field work. again, i wished the rain would stop. it didn't. i was cold and soaking wet when i got home. i even thought my feet would get frostbite! (exagg)

now i think i'm catching a cold.

there's a reason why they say wishes are hopes not promises. i wish i realized that sooner!
