Chapter 4

High School Experience


They say High School Life is the happiest moment of one's life. Maybe because this is the time where you will experience all one's "first".... and I supposed you know what does this 'first' means.. First love, first heartbreak, first kiss? First lakwatsa, gimmick or outing with friends, first crush, or the first time of having guts to say I love you to someone. or maybe finding your 1st true friends. wow...


I attended my Secondary Education in Balara High School. There were lots of memories and I could not tell you much of it, that would take me 3 hours or more to tell you the experiences I've been. I thought High school would be same as when I was in Elementary. me and my friends used to play after school then go home by 3 pm, do our assignments, watch TV, sleep, wake up and go to school again... The normal cycle of studying. But what makes Elementary and High School differ is the weight of maturity and realization that the matter of study now in High school is above-heavier than elementary and should take it seriously, coz what happens to you in this stage would reflect on how and what more you can and cannot do on your future years.

When I was in 1st year,I joined a Dance Group and represent our School. We grabbed the 5th place. That was also the time I started engaging myself to extra-curricular activities. About friends, since my other elementary friends maybe attended high school in other high schools, I met new associates, others are simple, some are quiet, others are KALOG... they were nice. There was a time when one of my friends got angry to me, I was that seriously sorry to her. We're still friends but the gap, I could say, that wouldn't change. The thing is, we're still good friends. I ended my 1st year nice, and since I became serious to my studies, I became the Top 3 from the pilot section.

My 2nd year was the most embarrassing part of my High School years. I remember when our adviser got mad to our group. That was English time and she was our teacher. She's talking to the other group and since we're not doing anything, we decided to play. We played 'Starstruck', we became to overwhelmed to our play that one of our group mate incidentally pushed our teacher through her chair. Ma'am got really angry he made us stood and insisted us to tell what kind of business we're in.. waaaahhhh, I was the leader of our group, so I explained all things. She sarcastically laugh, then walked out. At the end of the day, we said our sorries and regret doing such thing in front(actually back) of her.

In this year also I won as Ms. Campus Heartthrob(akalain mo yon?). Other thing, This was also the year I had my first relation (as bf-gf )to someoneAgain, I became the Top 3 of the Pilot Section.

3rd year High school? Hmm... First, I broke up to my 1st boyfriend. Then, I had my second.. funny, but about the flow of my study? Nothing changed.I became much serious to studies. I enjoyed more. I dedicated myself working to extra-curricular activities. This was the time I realize that 'Grades aren't everything'. I became President to 2 orgs and I also won(for the 4th year term) my Supreme Student Council President incumbency. I became Top 3 again of the pilot section.


For the last year, the most tiring year of High School. The most unforgettable? ALl things that I experienced durng 4th year was memorable. Our trip to Baguio for the Leadership Training for a week. I joined into different affiliations.Meeting new boys(malandi). Meeting new friends. Everything. What made me cry is the fact that the road of life of each of us is always divided into to two or more... one would take this part, the other that part. Magkakalayu-layo rin ang lahat. But the flame that binds each one's heart is the best gift and remembrance one would keep forever. I graduated as 1st Honorable mention.
