Hi everyone,
I am Winzy Ray Casil 17 years old and an ECE student. I am now in the last term
of my freshmen year and this term happens to be an all-english term. One of the
requirements for our English Enrichment Program or EEPENG is to write blogs. Our
first blog should be about ourselves. So expect that you would now better after
you finish this blog. But I’m warning you I have the most boring life that you
could ever imagine.
Most of
the kids I know went to preschool or kindergarten before they attended their grade
school. I haven’t got a chance to attend any of those but I have undergone a
summer school program months before 1st grade but before that my mom
and dad home schooled me .In my first day of being a grade school student I experienced
being asked by my classmates “where kindergarten have you graduated from?” and
“I was like what the hell is kindergarten?”
During my
first day I saw a lot of things. I saw kids crying in the waiting shed, gate,
stairs hallway, corridors and also in our room. That brought a question to my
head “what is wrong with these people?”
I am a
slightly smart kid (look I’m trying to sound humble here) well it’s because I did
well on my studies when I was I grade school. In fact I always belonged to the
top 3 our class but I am not in the 1st section. Not until 5th
grade. I was transferred to the pilot section and from there I learned a lot of
things. Our school’s journalism club chose me to become their English editorial
writer. I am not as good as the others since I am the newest member. We joined
a journalism contest once but I haven’t got an award, too bad for me. Another
great thing that happened to me is when my sixth grade adviser picked me to compete
in a Science quiz bee. Again my
experience didn’t help me a lot (since I don’t have any). I was only able to
finish 1st in the first stage which is inter-division, after that I lost.
It was quite a good experience. On my graduation day I deliver my valedictory address.
I haven’t spoken in front of large crowd before so I blew it up (well it’s not
that messed up, just enough for the crowd to laugh right in the middle of my
speech).
It was
summer after my graduation; I and my mother went to Senator Renato “Companero”
Cayetano Memorial Science and Technology High School or SRCCMSTHS(this is where
I finished my highschool). We were hoping if we I could still take the entrance
examination. The entrance exam is done only December to January, meaning I am
late for months. But they said that I can still enroll without taking the exam
since I graduated as a batch valedictorian we were so glad from what we heard.
My first
year didn’t turn out good as what I’ve expected it. Culture shock got me and a
chain reaction of bad events happened. Luckily I found a buddy who would help
me in the darkest of times. He is John Dale Golingay, a 5foot 6 guy who has a skill
in chess and rubick’s cube. We are most of the times out casted from our
section but that’s okay we’re better off that way.
My whole
freshmen year could have turned outrageously bad if not for a special person. I
would rather not mention her name. I first met her in a senior scout formation in
our school grounds (I have position in our senior scout org that’s why). I don’t
believe that slow motion happens in real life because when I first met here it
feels like everything in the whole universe has stopped for that moment. It’s not that long when I found myself fallen
in love with her. I tried to be close to her in FB and there I did these corny
but cheesy lines like:
“Do you believe I omnipresence?”
“What is it?”
“It is when an object is in two place at the same time ”
“Ahh…is that it?...well I don’t believe it.”
“Me …I believe that it is true.”
“Why???”
“Well it’s just like you.”
“Why do you think so??”
“Well it’s because you’re there right in front of the PC chatting
with me but you’re also in my head and lastly in my heart.”
I knew that was a corny conversation but I didn’t care.
Months later
we became MU’s. That was the first time I experienced being loved by someone
who’s not my relative, a romantic love. Then there come a time when texting her
is just the only thing that I wanted to do. Every class dismissal we would just
sit on the benches of our school until her service comes.
I remember
that time when she roam around our school so that she could solicit money that
will be used for me join our field trip. That is the sweetest thing a girl has
done to me. I repay her making a valentine’s card that is made up of card and a
design I made. The design is two hearts with text saying “I love you so much”
plus on its side is a personal message. Sadly she has a boyfriend now since we
lost what we had years ago or should I say I let her go.
High school
is the best time of your life that’s what they say. I believe that because that
is where I met my “tropa” and they are Kenneth, James, Kim, Dave and my best
buddy John Dale. We are the best of friends and we did some naughty things, a lot
of them.
It is
also in high school that I learned things that I would be needing academically,
plus talents like playing the guitar, sports including soccer, badminton, sepak
takraw, badminton and basketball. Though I have only learned it in my fourth
year. I did become an introvert in some parts of my highschool life but it
changed wheni joined the “Cadet Officer Candidate Course” or COCC. Up until now
I still carry the attitude of being a leader.
A lot of
things happened to me throughout my life and all of those brought me to where I
am no. the good things gave happiness and the bad ones taught me
lessons-lessonsthat I should treasure and always remember.
-Till next time. This is
Winzy Casil of ECE-151
