I slept a lot longer than I should last night. I called the night off passed midnight, only to end up waking up at 9am, although I had a short call of nature around 7 I still went straight to bed thereafter. By the time I woke up, I remember two dreams I had in my sleep, which I find it rather strange.

Dream #1

Me and the rest of my Sondesn class were summoned by my professor, Sir Zahn Yu. In my dream, he looked very disappointed as he looked at us. Based from his voice, he’s not in a good mood (this is a dream after all, in reality he’s jolly fun and active!).

He said something about us being unable to do what we were “supposed” to include for our finals project. He, in the dream, criticized the work we had saying that could have done it better than what we presented to him during Finals Week.

On me, he said I could have added something that would make presence of my existing work as well as remove a few unnecessities.

As the dream progressed, turns out there was an awarding ceremony of some sort. Had we in the dream passed our work in the best way we can give to Sir Zahn, certainly they could have ended up nominated on a category that recognizes our work.

Weird….

Dream #2

I always have this recurring dream sequence of me taking a bus or jeep route to a certain area in EDSA or whatever road found in Metropolitan Manila. This one’s no exception.

My sister and I were, in the dream, looking for a bus that would take us to a friend’s birthday party. We did but somehow took a shorter way to get there (make a turn and you’re there so why waste money riding a bus?).

The house’s exterior is covered with green plastic thingamjigs which serve as “windows” of some sort although the interiors looks awfully like the one in Jerico’s new house in Paco. I’m not exactly sure whose birthday it was since the face of the “Birthday Boy” seems so vague, or at least not thoroughly seen when I was dreaming about it. Although I do somehow recognize a few of the party guests: Me, my sister, Paulo (Perez or Catalo) and one person whose foot is he had it raised and placed over the chair he’s sitting on. One thing’s for sure is that many those who came were Jamers.

The second dream I believe could be a premonition. Many of my premonitions come true but in a somewhat different form and setting but nevertheless still happen in an almost exact way. it could happen anytime soon I don’t have an idea whose birthday though is coming up in the next few months though (except for Louie’s who is 11 days older than me).

The fact that I still remember that may bolster the likelihood of it coming true except though for the first dream since I already took Sondesn last term last school year.

😀

We only spent our stay in Pagudpud overnight, for biyahe purposes, but I didn’t waste time to enjoy what the white-sand beaches of Pagudpud has to offer. Some say it’s the next Boracay but I say that it is, without the stench of crowding beachgoers by day, and the lost innocence of the evening by night.

The big bummer though was the unnecessary drizzle falling down in the area. The blue skies covered with clouds while strong winds blew hard and slow across the horizon.

The day after, we headed back to Currimao and stayed there for one final day.

The past five days have been a wonderful experience for me and the rest of the pack who were with me as well: My family, my cousins, and my tiyuhins.

On the 2nd of May, we left Ilocos for good and in a span of almost 10 hours. We made a quick stop in Vigan (which is in the middle of celebrating its own festivities) and had lunch near Plaza Burgos: Sinanglaw and a 355mL bottle of Pepsi. Yum!

Have I told you that from Pagudpud southwards, I’ve counted a total of 17 checkpoints, the last being in a town within Tarlac. My mom on the otherhand counted as much as 30 construction roadblocks starting in Ilocos Norte downwards. Hehehe.

Thanks to SCTX, we got home in Valenzuela as early as 10pm…yey! The trip in NLEX was exceptionally smooth, being able to take a turn to Valenzuela Exit and headed towards Maysan Road before emptying itself to McArthur Highway. We took a left turn to Gen. Santiago Street in Malinta and crossed the border to Santulan, Malabon which is in the middle of its May festival before taking a right turn to M.H. del Pilar northward to Arko.

And the next thing I knew, we were home….

Oh, yeah…I forgot to tell you. Here’s another politico making his presence known via a tarpaulin of his we found in front of the municipal hall of Sinait, Ilocos Sur:

From this point on, people other than me took shots on several photographs 😀

^Update to ng isang magandang kuha sakin from 07

Yes! After two years, the trip to Ilocos finally went ahead as scheduled, with me included. Last year didn’t work out for reason ranging from 1)unavailability from members of the Sibucao clan and 2)No LOA’s were approved to many who wanted to come.

I had summer class that time, taking my advanced crash course in Business Mathematics (Bmat2x) in school, occupying 4 weeks of my 5 week summer break.

At least natuloy right?

Hooray for course cards! And I’m glad to be back in AKIC (to get my course card in NSTPCWS).

Wasn’t able to take pictures of all of my profs. Sayang.

Also met my mom’s ka-eskuwela from Ramon Magsaysay HS, Mr. Edgar Lee

Finally submitted my group project for Sondesn after doing some necessary changes to the Vegas Pro file. Last exam is with NSTPCWS sa Main.

Same spot pero umalis din nyeghh

Was in the SDA Caf for almost 12 hours straight, sitting on the same table and chair since 8am before vacating at 8pm
