wish upon a shooting star...

today...well yesterday which was just a few hours ago...my family and my cousins watched the World Pyro Olympics which was held somewhere in Pasay...near the bay...near westin...near star city...basically the fire works show was at the bay!! ahehehe...im bad with directions...anyways...it was the first day of the event so there were really alot of people...plus i didnt really know what to expect...all i know was it was a fireworks competition among different countries...the night's event was showdown between china and australia...it was really amazing!!! the first show was china...i was really hoping to see alot from china considering they are the godfathers of fireworks!!! but australia kicked their asses with big bangs!! and i really mean BIG BANGS!!! which occured to me.."oh yea!! olympics.." china had their own style..they were silent but with class...their fireworks displayed different kinds of shapes...while australia gave out big bangs and bright flashes which was cool!!! but one thing i really loved about the chinese were the firefly effects they made!! it was really cool!! and talking about cool...it was literally cold!! coz we were beside the bay and the wind was really blowing everything!!! thank God i brought jacket along!! the whole event is up to the 30th of December...so im thinking of going back to watch again with my friends...this time i'll be prepared...and i do invite you other people out there to go check it out!! its worth your 100php!! just remember to bring the following:
  • jacket
  • food
  • drinks
  • tripod (for the camera!! its hard to take good pictures without it, you have to keep your hands still...)
  • blanket
  • pillow
  • mat
ahehehe...im serious about the last three!!! ^___^ so just trust me on it...and the food and drinks...well they sell there as well but there's really ALOT of people which makes the line for the food booths unbearable!!!! and i swear...after the whole show...when everybody was walking back to their cars...it was like exodus!! you know, the bible story?? where moses was leading the people thru the red sea!! it was like that!! i swear!! and im not exaggerating it already!!! ^__~

anyways, while i was watching the whole fireworks display....there were alot of "oohs" and "ahhs" among the crowd and i was one of them but at the back of my mind i couldnt help but think and worry about keight. i was thinking that the fireworks display was really amazing...they were like painting shooting stars in the sky...and i said to myself..."if they are shooting stars...if i make a wish among those shooting stars...will it come true? or will it fade away like its light and color?"

you see, to make it easier for you to understand....the De Lasalle entrance test results are already out...miren and keight are actually gunning for Ateneo...but you cant just apply for one college and Ateneo is one of the hardest universities to get into...so De Lasalle is one of their back-up colleges...miren got in...but keight didnt...it may not be the Ateneo results but...the thinking of.."what more if I couldnt even pass this..??" goes on into one's mind...it really brings a person down...im not just worried about keight who didnt got in but also sharina...i remember she told me..."its Lasalle or nothing"...i dont know if she knows that the results are out...and...i dont know...at first i want to tell her...but i couldnt bring myself to it...i've never applied for any college before (i dont even think i will) since my future is pretty much set up already...im partially enrolled in that culinary school that i kept talking about...so i never experienced any of these agonizing moments of my friends...who are in the edge of theirs seats just waiting to find out if the university/college will accept them...and now...it happens...i dont know what to do...by the way, miren isn't around...she's in hong kong for the holidays so she still doesnt know that she got in nor does she know about keight's situation. so ive been comforting keight by myself...i just dont have enough self-confidence in me to know if im saying the right things or doing the right things for keight..im just basically worried about her and i want her to feel better. plus for the record...i dont believe those results. because i know keight..she studied her heart out for the whole 3rd year and 4th year of highschool!!! its impossible for that to happen!! so in any given time, i'm willing to go to Lasalle with her and personally check the results...because the results we saw are just posted in the internet...and i kept saying to myself that "its not true and that their system just hasnt been updated, maybe not all of the names have been posted yet...that has to be reason why keight and sharina's name are still not on the list..." that's my only hope and chance that i've been wishing and praying for!!! i just cant accept it when i know the facts so well...and suddenly when im just soo sure of it...it goes wrong...i may not understand the feelings of my friends fully on this but i can sympathize with them because i feel bad...im always the one telling them they're shoe-in for Ateneo...and if my "facts" are suddenly proven to be fictional...i dont know what to do...

...God...please...help them....
