Hi Nikki Pee

Yes! After 4 long years of being imprisoned in the wrath of hell of Hades, at last! Ni graduate najud ko. HIGH SCHOOL. HAHA.

I kept ranting on my Twitter, Facebook, YM, GM's, and even here on iStorya.net that I finally graduated high school. I am over exaggerating it too much na gani. My high school didn't went well. I had most of downfalls here and expecting more in the future.

After all the experiences I've crossed ways I didn't regret anything. This sentence may be a cliche but it's true, "Experience makes you better person."


FIRST YEAR
I was one of the naning people. Very hardworking. And I'm really afraid to have a failing grade. HELLO! Come to think of it, stranger. 85 amo passing EACH subject. Geeez. So naning pa kaayo ko ani nga stage though I had nauseous days. This year is the so-called, "adjustment period." Ga adjust pajud. Tsk.


SECOND YEAR
I had my 3rd and last boyfriend, Hans Edward Chin. The relationship went well though after moreover 3 months, we have to break up cause he's leaving for Canada soon.

My inspiration faded and I started cutting classes. The first time I cut class was on the first day of our 3rd periodical exams. HAHA. It felt really good. I say, it's addictive. Labi na if dili masakpan. So yeah, I did it more often. Little did I know that my grades are failing. My parents have no idea about my absences. WHY? I go out the house on uniform. I go somewhere, like Jollibee, McDonald's, or Ayala, then I change to my civilian attire. HAHA. Grabeh sa akong kabuang. Then the time came na gipatawag najud akong parents. They were really shocked cause they really think I go to school everyday when the fact is I SOMETIMES don't. Hihi. I got grounded and punished for the bad stuffs I've done.

This year pud, mIRC addict pako. I had lots of BI friends over the chatroom. HAHA. This year is my first time that I sneak at night.

I had lots of absences this year. Good thing I still passed. Enlightened sad ko pagka summer ani nga year. I became active with my catholic youth group, Youth for Christ.

This is the start pud of a new life.
But that's what I thought.


THIRD YEAR
Active nako sa Youth for Christ. I became our Batch Governor. Being a leader of the batch made me very busy. This is one thing I am happy of because it gave me reasons why I should go to school every single day. I am happy that the inferiority of both classes, the Pilots and Non-Pilots, lessened. We already bond as a batch. Proud ko nga I am one of the factors nganong nagka close among batch. I was a very active leader.

Here came JS-Prom and we are assigned to organize it. Being the batch head I became busy arranging everything. I put much effort on it. Never did I know that there are people who didn't appreciate the hardwork that I've done. I wasn't able to embrace the critics of some people. It made me feel useless and unworthy of the position I was holding. Mao toh. Andar nasad akong pagka absenot.

I left school for moreover 2 weeks. Gi anhi nagud ko sa house sa ako teacher. HAHAHA. Ako jud gi drop ako tanan subjects. But they gave me a chance. So there, surive nasad ko 3rd year.

FOURTH YEAR
My absences minimized. My sneaking-out-at-night lessened too. Wala nako mag cge chat. Istorya and Facebook nalang. HAHA. This is the year that I became a little independent. I earn my own panglaag na. Kay Graphics Artist man KUNO ko. HAHA. I layout tarps, call cards, etc. Anything for print, I do them. Ngita ko clients here on iStorya and at school pud. Sa lower years and my batchmates.

Mag absent gihapon ko. But not as often as for the past 2 years of HS. HAHA. If mu absent, naa'y valid reason or kibaw ko nga wala jud buhaton. LOL.

Di kaayo dagko ako grado. But here I am, Nikki Ninna T. Petralba, a Cebu City National Science High School Alumna.

Sa tanan ni graduate ako raju'y ni agi ug ing'ani. Katong mga pareha nako, ni hunong jud ug skuyla. Or mga drop out. Or mga kick-out. Pinangga jud kaayo ko's Ginoo cause na retain jud ko. Even though there were many temptations of stopping school.


----------------------------------------------

My parents are so proud of me. They say that nothing's impossible or it's a miracle. HAHA. I myself too couldn't believe that I graduated in a school where a flock of smart people are found when in fact I am the kind who's irresponsible, doesn't care, and all that.

At first I thought that I didn't deserve this scholarship. But on the latter part I firmly believe that it really was meant for me. Not because I deserve that I'm smart and reponsible BUT BECAUSE the Lord wanted me to experience all these. He wanted me to realize how much he wanted me to feel that I am never left behind. Even though I was a nobody at school I know that I am somebody for him.

Mao ng naka ingun jud ko, I SURVIVED!
