Euphoric Feelings

Why I've been undeniably happy these past few days (in chronic order):

1. New calculator. As soon as I saw that purple Sharp scientific calculator with 272 functions, I immediately fell in love. I didn't care that it cost three-fourths of my weekly allowance, the sense of elation over possessing such a beautiful and useful calculator is worth my starvation.

2. Successful party throwing. My mom celebrated her golden birthday just last Sunday. It has become some sort of tradition for the Lopez clan to throw surprise parties for family members who are turning fifty. We had a surprise breakfast party for her at our house. Thus, she didn't expect another surprise party during dinner at Hamada, her favorite restaurant. And of course it made me happy to see my mom happy! Yes, I know - I'm getting cheesy.

3. Officially enrolled. Walking under the dead heat of the sun to move from place to place only to be greeted by a tremendously long line at your destination - such is the strenuous enrollment process of UP. Spending six hours for that is most probably why as soon as I received my Official Form 5 embellished with the  stamped mark "Enrolled", my happiness reached its peak. Until next semester. Should I graduate on time (crossing my fingers), I still have to undergo six more enrollments.

But that thought is starting to make me depressed again, so I guess I must end this post now. The title is after all, "Euphoric Feelings".

Another thing though - I can't blog as much anymore due to the resuming of classes. And of course, there is also the matter of our dorm having an internet connection with the speed of... a snail.
