sTary... sTarY niGht...


I really really hate it when my schedules conflicts! Moreover, I hate it when I had to choose which I should prioritize.
Why am I saying these things? Because three very important things will happen today needing me to be there; YMA session, Tulo-Tulo sa Marso and Stargazing Activity at USC – TC, but I can’t, but I had an idea!
Early in the morning, I went to join our YMA session. At 2 pm, I excused myself from the session; of course I asked permission from Ms. Tim, and en went to SM Cinema 1 to watch the compulsory play entitled, Tulo-tulo sa Marso wherein student from UP were there to perform.
Upon reaching SM, I asked my friends to wait for me, but I came first, and I have realized that I was not able to bring any UP shirt so I just went on hiding and looking out. Upon reaching inside, we saw other batch mates of ours and we stayed close to each other to look for chairs. We almost found a fight with the very impolite man that was guarding the seats for the teachers. So, I just lead them and we squatted on the very front area of the Cinema, as in really in front of the stage. We enjoyed the whole show and we really adored the UP performers.
It was about time for me to go back to YMA, so I was accompanied by the boys wherein they assisted me upon which jitney to ride on.
The YMA session lasted until 10 pm. And my nerves were really not settled since the 4th year Stargazers will be going to USC-TC without me and I was kind of scared what if something goes wrong and I’m not there with them! Good thing they were responsible enough to take good care of themselves and eventually managed to reach USC-TC safely.
I was able to follow them at10 pm wherein I rode on a cab. Upon reaching there, Madam Gallo introduced to me the big time astronomers! I was shy because they were really the people who invested a lot in their passion. After talking to them, I went to be with my batch mates and sat for a while. Minutes later, JP and I played “dakpanay”, a very childish game, and thumb wrestling, a very immature game too! But we had fun so we just went on. We both looked into the telescope and saw the magnificent beauty of Saturn and the constellations. A talk also followed about astrophotography, hobbies of people who love taking pictures of the sky, wherein we saw through his laptop the different wonderful constellations.
After that, we took a rest and just talked. I really planned to sleep because I’m so tired! But lying with Artsron on my right side and JP on my left side eventually caused me not to sleep. We just kept on talking and talking.
The night was so fantastic! The stars were there perfectly and the cold air resembled with the dark night. The memories we had during the night were for us to cherish in our hearts. All we could say is that we enjoyed the glamorous night and that night is for us to remember… always!
