These are some of the topics discussed in our project. Honestly, Sab and I aren't happy about the outcome. It was a bit rushed. We did all these in just a span of eleven days. It turns out that our Professor felt the same way as well.

"It was good, nagustuhan ko dahil napapanahon ang napili niyong paksa, I mean we still face inequality issues today pero I have to be honest." Miss Kat sighed. "The ideas were not in shape. Hindi siya organized. Medyo nakulangan lang ako, it wasn't discussed as a whole."

And she said it in front of the class right after our presentation. I was disappointed, and Sab was too. I wasn't sure if it was about the project in particular, but I also have a wild guess that Miss Kat had expected so much from the both of us.

That's what she gets after putting two big brains together. Women like us are speaking our minds, so she probably thought it was a good pairing.

Maybe if we had worked separately, one of us might get the highest grades. Pero dahil may sariling opinion ako, at may sarili ring paninindigan si Sab, hindi naging buo ang pagkaka-construct ng bawat paksa.

But who are we kidding? It wasn't because of our own opinions and beliefs; everything was a mess because we are. Not literally, but our minds were in a chaotic jumble. We couldn't honestly focus on the project solely because we always ended up hugging, sniffing, and kissing each other's lips.

Sab and I knew we would be in a heap of trouble for not giving this our best shot, but she always reasoned out,

"I like kissing you."

This phrase put me on trial. I am always a worrier in terms of my academics, pero pagdating kay Sab wala akong mahanap na rason para tumanggi.

I am hypnotized by her sharp-witted mind and quirky sense of humor. I like it when she kisses me gently at first and then gets heated after.

Hindi ko makalimutan... the way she marked my lips. Gosh! After all, it was my first kiss, and she stole it! Damn you Sab! But did she really steal it? Kasi sa pagkakaalala ko, I gave in!

We didn't just spend eleven days worrying about our project; we also got a little pleasure out of it by giving each other countless hugs and kisses.

"Namumula amputa! Naglasing ka noh? Namo ka hindi nagyaya, sarap tamparusin!" Sabi ni Rowan kay Cris.

Vacant kaming lahat after lunch kaya napag-desisyunan naming kumain nalang sa labas. Kasama ko rin sina Ed, Celine, and Sab who's sitting right next to me. Hilary was not here because she will be having her defense a little later.
