Luck, minsan good, minsan bad.
I was lucky enough to have passed all my subjects that year. Sakto lang talaga na nakapasa.
Now, sixteen and in Senior High taking ABM strand. My parents told me to take that. Nagkasundo sila ulit sa mahabang panahon na hindi.
I was in the sixth grade when our family was on the rocks. They always fought dahil sa pagdidisiplina sa akin. Mom was a disciplinarian while my Dad was my spoiler. He always gave me what I want dahil alam niya na may pagkukulang sila sa akin. But mom was once a spoiler, too not until after she got back from a trip somewhere, business matters perhaps? I was not sure dahil bata pa ako noon.
Come my first year in high school, when they separated. I stayed with mom because according to Dad, that's the law, whatever that means, I did not give a damn. Though, I wanted to live with Dad, I just got no choice.
Mom has a new guy. He's not nice neither bad...at first. We had no conversation not until he went inside my room while I was asleep. I woke up when he touched my face. By just the look on his eyes, I knew something was wrong so I ran away. I realized Mom was not around so I called Dad to fetch me.
I did not tell him what happened. He was happy to fetch me, though he asked where mom was that time. I just smiled and hugged him.
I told mom when I went back home after two days of being with dad. She just shrugged it off so I was like: Okay, it was nothing.
When Dad asked for a visitation, Mom refused. Maybe, she don't want Dad to see her new guy, huh. They then agreed to give me a condo unit for a fair visitation. Fourteen and I was living in a condo..alone. How lucky could I get to be free and all, right?
Credit cards and a condo for myself? Just wow!
I got friends and a band. I can even go to a club with them! Cher, Eloisa, Sergio, Mug and I. We're all high school students and yet we can go in and out clubs so easy dahil kay Mug. Speaking of connections, kilala siya ng halos lahat ng bar owners at siya ay nasa tamang edad na. Mahina man ako sa klase hindi pa naman ako bumalik ng grade, hindi tulad ni Mug. Well, baka ito na ang time na babalik nga ako ng grade.
Aside from connection ay hindi kami mukhang below eighteen. That's according to some of our acquaintances and bar friends. We're all tall on our age and I don't have an explanation as to how we made this circle of friends of tall and physically blessed minors.
Blame hormones! Blame genes! Whatever!
So, I'm an ABM student at hindi maganda ang performance ko noong first semester. This second sem was worst. I think I will fail! Hindi na ito tulad noong Grade 10 pa ako na nababawi ko pa ang mga kakulangan ko.
This year, hindi na, dahil madalas na talaga akong absent dahil sa sinasalihan kong photoshoots and gigs sa gabi. I can't focus anymore dahil mas gusto ko pang gumawa ng cookies tuwing pagkagising ko kaysa pumasok. Cookies are my stress reliever at mood enhancer. The smell of baked goods during breakfast is my refuge for my rather chaotic brain and hangover.
I can't say my passion is my bad luck. I love what I'm doing. Naiisip ko nga minsan na siguro ang pag-aaral ang bad luck sa akin.
What can Physical Science and Political Science do in my future? They just stressing me out!
"Rock, baking is Science so as Music. Lahat ng bagay may eksplenasyon ng siyensiya!" I remember Eloisa telling me those things. Palibhasa swerte sa genes ng parents niyang parehong Doctor.
Bakit nga ba hindi ko nakuha ang genes ng pagiging matalino ng parents ko? Damn genes! Ewan ko sa genes! Science parin 'yon! Tsk.
"Bilog...bilog na naman ang buwan.."pang-aasar na pagkanta ni Cher. Damn her and her love for OPM! Panahon pa yata ng lolo ko yang kantang 'yan ah? I don't actually hate OPM. It's just that...it does not suit my mood right now!
