2 years ago.."And another win for Emerald State University!" One of our teachers said.
Summer na summer pero na rito kami at nag compete pa sa iba't ibang school para sa Summer Camp: Math Competition. Annual competition yun against junior high school students sa iba't ibang school. Not to brag pero anually din na ako ang champion.
I am one of ESU's pride and honor. Since elementary ay consistent honor student na ko. Laging panlaban sa science competition, math, essay- name it, nasalihan ko na lahat. Nung high school din I joined the school's volleyball team. I am the captain. I don't only top on academics but in sports too!
"Congratulations Ivy and Kiel. Na sungkit natin ang champion and first-runner up this year!" Tuwang-tuwa na sabi ng principal namin.
I just humbly smiled and glanced at Kiel na nakaupo sa dulong side ng coaster. Nakangiti lang din siya at nung nag tama na ang mga mata namin ay agad akong umiwas. Since grade 7 ay magkasama na kami lagi ni Kiel tuwing may competition outside school. He's smart as well and like me, consistent honor student din.
Although lagi kami magkasama dahil kami ang pinanglalaban ng school namin, we are not close. I can't even recall a conversation of ours that lasted for a minute. We never competed as a duo anyway. Separate rin ang review namin dahil I often have a training after school. My dad even hired a tutor outside school para matutukan ako sa studies ko lalo na kapag may academic competition ako.
My dad always pressures me when it comes to academics. Kailangan laging pasado. Kailangan walang bababa sa line of 94. Kailangan aside from my academics, may extra curricular din ako to boost my application form for college. It's hard lalo na't wala na kong time to socialize with others. When other teens are busy partying, dating, etc. Ako nasa kwarto at nag-aaral.
I still have some friends though. I realized din na hindi ko kailangan ng maraming kaibigan. Usually kasi ginagamit lang nila ako at pag katapos 'non para bang di na nila ako kilala.
Erika and Leighton are enough for me. Erika and I are friends since kinder. We met Leighton when he transferred to our school nung Grade 5.
"See you in a month, kids! I don't even know if tama pang tawagin kayong ganun. Senior na kayo!" Ms. Demenza said habang pababa na kami ng coaster. We just arrived back at our school and I already called my driver na rin to fetch me.
"Ano bang strand kinuha niyo?"
"STEM po." Kiel answered. Naka hoodie na siya ngayon at may airpods pa sa mag kabilang tenga.
"HUMSS po." I answered as well.
"Really, Ms. Del Rosario? I was expecting you'll take STEM as well." sabi ni Ms. Demenza.
I smiled. "Well I saw the course outline po, HUMSS intrigued me more than the other strands. Tama na po muna siguro yung mahabang taon na kaka-compute." I joked.
"Sayang at di kita makakasama sa Basic Calculus class ko. Mr. Mendoza as for you, goodluck. Wala akong favoritism no!" Ma'am said and we laughed.
"Sige po, Ms. gagalingan ko po." He said and I just stared at him. I always see him as my rival sa pag t-top ko sa klase.
Iniwas ko na ang tingin ko sakanya nang mag ring ang phone ko. "My driver is calling me na po. I have to go na." Pagpapaalam ko.
