Well, here is another bloopers from a crazy girl who accidentally wore the slippers owned by Major Gregardo Villar. Yes. Knowing that it was his slippers almost scared me to death.
It all started when Ate Bhing, my cousin and my classmate's boss, invited me to join them in their lunch. My goodness... how can I say no.. I was wearing shoes that time so as a sign of respect, I have to take it off before reaching the dining room. I have to say that I'm not used wearing barefoot so upon seeing the set of slippers somewhere in the corner I immediately borrowed one of for myself.It was big and its faded blue color could tell that it's old.
Ate Bhing prepared " tinola" as their tanghalian and truth be told, that was the best tinola I've ever tasted in my entire life. we were very busy eating and chatting when out of nowhere,we heard a loud voice shouting: who wore my slippers? I just ignored it and continue eating when ate jovy told me to look back.
There, I saw kuya Greg standing at my back , looking at my feet.
"What's the matter?, I asked them.
"hey, that's my slippers!!,he replied.
OMG!!! I should have known earlier that the slippers I was wearing belongs to him.

On the Spot Winner
The Balagtasan was over and I was about to go home when Melvin asked me if I wanted to join the extemporaneous speech competition.
"Melvin, not again!!!", I said. I don't want to commit the same mistake but these words convinced me.
" Napahiya na tayo kanina kaya sulitin na natin!".. So for the second time around, I was involved in another trouble. But this time, there were 13 contestants. I should say that winning this kind of contest is a great challenge..and I do love to be challenged.
Melvin was the eight performer and I was the last to perform. We only have three minutes to speak and one minute to organize all the ideas we have so when the competition begun, everybody seemed to be pretty nervous.
Extemporaneous speech for me, is no big deal. We had our speech and stage arts subject so somehow, I know the basic things to consider while speaking in public plus my countless experience in joining declamation contest contributed in overcoming my stage fright so I am confident that everything will be fine.
When my name was called, I held my breath and went to the stage. The topic was about using Filipino language to promote world peace.I organized the ideas I have in mind and made sure to enunciate and pronounce every single word clearly. Unlike other contestants who started their speech without saying any quotation or what, I told them a story as my introduction. The story was actually funny and I succeed in getting their attention and in delivering the story in a funny way.
At the end of the talk, I was very sure that the audience had liked because they clapped and cheered so loud. I was shocked when Melvin shouted saying: " Whoaaah, Kaklase ko yan!!!".. What a jerk!
He congratulated me in advance but I told him that the result was not finish so he should stop flattering me.
After 15 minutes, Sir Novs went to the stage holding the result of the competition and when he finally spoke..OMG!!! I can't believe I won the first place. Clark and Melvin were very proud of me and bragged my certificates in every person they encounter. I laugh and laugh and laugh...
My dad was so happy upon hearing the news. He laughed at me when I told him what happened to our Balagtasan and how I skipped my lines during the performance. This was really an unforgetable experience..

The Three Idiots
Part of the
celebration of Linggo ng Wika was the competition for Balagtasan,Talumpati,
Poster- making and trivia.Two of my friends,Melvin and Clark encouraged me to
join them in Balagtasan and compete with the other year levels.
I thought they were just trying to fool me around so my YES to them was not serious at all. But when these guys handed me the copy of the piece,I was like.."
Hey,you guys serious about these?" They looked at me and said that our names were already listed together with other candidates. I told them that I was just joking but these guys would kill me. The piece was quite long and it would really take one great mind to memorize my part there's no way to turn back now..
I envy Clark for having the shortest part of the piece because he was the Lakandiwa. Melvin and I were Pablo and Ofelia who would speak alternately through out the piece. What a curse!!
I spent my whole night memorizing my part. Even though the script was written in tagalog language, I find it hard to memorize every single word. Those guys expect me to memorize my part immediately? What do they think I am, girl version of Jimmy Neutron? But I did my best to learn everything my part and before the morning came, I almost got it all. ALMOST..
I ransacked my old cabinet looking for my kimona and saya and I was so happy to find them both. " these will be my costume" I told myself as I hurriedly went to school.
I found Clark sitting on the bench reading his script. I joined him and did the same thing. After a while, Melvin arrived. Just a moment before the competition starts. We found out that there were only two contestants One from criminology department and one from teacher education department and that's us!
The first group was very good. They have memorized every line perfectly so I was having a second thought whether to compete or just go home. But Melvin told us that we will fight no matter what happen. Whatta brave man!!
And guess what happened next?? Everybody clapped so loud when our group was called in front. They were all excited to see us perform. I bit my lip and utter these words: HELP US GOD!
Well,I have to say that our performance was...hmm...not that bad. Melvin did a good job and they can't accuse me for skipping some of my lines. My part was really really long ,that's why.
What I don't understand was Clark. I laughed at him so hard after the performance because he forgot most of his lines. THEO GRACIAS!!!! I kept on teasing him and he seemed to be so annoyed. But at some point, I admire the spirit of these two jerks for having such courage to do such thing like this.
Were not after the prize anyway.This was a nice experience and I believe that it did a great help in developing our confidence for the future... No regrets..

Where is she?
On the day of the seminar, I woke up so early and prepared myself ready to go. Remember, I am the master of ceremony so there is no reason to be late. I arrived in school at 7: 30. I guess it's just the perfect time to have a short review of my script and to set everything ready.Microphone, check. Sound system, check. Snacks, check. Now get ready to rumble!!!!
It was already 8:00 and I was hoping for three important person to be there. The adviser, the Resource Speaker and oh... Johaima, of course! Where are those guys? I texted Johaima to come and told her that the program will start in 10 minutes( just to alarm her!)..After a while, our adviser was there together with the resource speaker. I felt nervous..I Not because I am the emcee but because Johaima was not yet around. I kept on checking my phone from time to time waiting for reply and when my I saw her message on my phone, my world collapsed!!
" Ate Meg, I'm sorry but I can't attend. Sir Mark told me that the seminar is just a joke and you're just making fun of me."
I already told my classmate that Johaima will sing and the program is fixed. I know that they are all expecting for a song number so Johaima must be here!But her one- word reply made me not to expect for her to come. " sorry".. That's what he keeps on telling me.
The program started and I don't have a choice but to forget about song number (which made me really really mad).Good thing that the resource speaker did lots of energizer which somehow consumed the time intended for the song number.
The seminar was successful and satisfying. Everybody enjoyed the talk and I believe that they have learned so many things during the discussion.
I felt relieved. "Thank God, I survived." But the fact that Johaima broke the deal annoyed me so much. And the worst.. Why did Sir Mark told her that I was just making fun of her? How dare him to say that! My blood was boiling and I can't help myself from being mad at them. It felt like I was being cheated.. betrayed...and I hate this!

The Doubt
Two days before the seminar, Johaima approached me and said that she's feeling nervous about the coming event. I laughed and told her that everything will fall into place. She was quite for moment and I know that something inside was bothering her so I decided to tell her that I'll be the emcee of the event, hoping that somehow, it would ease her doubt and make her comfortable.
" Ate Meg,do you think they will like my singing?", she asked.
" Of course dear. You have a wonderful voice and I'm so sure that everybody will love it", I said, tapping her back.
I was about to leave and get something when she finally said... " what if they laugh at me?"
I hesitated and looked at her. "And why on earth would they laugh at you? Your a singer, not a clown!", I said in a high - toned voice.
"Ate Meg, did Ate Sandy told you about it?", she asked.
"told me what?", I replied.
She turned her back and walked inside the vacant room. " what is she saying?" , I asked myself.
Puzzled and curious, I followed her..and there, she showed me her arms. I was so shocked when I found out that these arms were shorter than what normal people have. And his fingers too. They were too small and were not normally shaped.
She pulled my arms and said" I wasn't able to stretch my arms like what your'e doing right now".
I was quiet for a minute. I realized that this girl thinks that her physical defects would put her to shame if she sang. I held her hands and said" these arms were beautiful"! She looked at me rising her eyebrows.
I hugged her and gave her some words of encouragement.. I told her the story of Saul from the bible and how God used this blind man to preach His words. There is no reason for her to be ashamed and she must show how wonderful she was to have a great talent is singing despite of her incompleteness. Thank God, I convinced her and this made me more excited for the seminar to come.
