The Day is Worth the Crinkles

I usually buy crinkles whenever I felt like I have done something satisfying in my part. Although I didn't completely satisfy myself for the day, but its still worth the crinkles.

To give you the highlights, I woke up at exactly 8:40 am and my ICS 10 online exams starts 8:40am. My alarm didn't work and in the morning, the sun was already shining bright and when I saw my alarm clock, it's already 2pm. Stupid alarm clock, I wont trust that alarm clock from now on. So there, adrenaline rush came up, I rode a taxi on my way to school and in 15 minutes I arrived in my classroom. Sir Francis still allowed me to take the exam fortunately. But unfortunately, after taking the exams, I found out that my score is only 33 out of 50. That would only be 66%. On the good side, I still passed with a disappointing grade.

In the afternoon, at exactly 1pm I arrived outside the FFP office to take our oral exams. My groupmates were Chiza and Kerwin. Kerwin was late. And the person we were under was quite a scary person. Not totally scary but unexpectedly scary. I think luck was on our side that time because when I picked a number, I got number four and the topic was about John Foppe. Earlier than that, I was thinking it would be best if about John Foppe will be our topic since its the topic I completely understand and could really comprehend with. So there, I did a good job speaking in English expressing my thoughts. Sometimes I had to rescue my teammates when I could already feel that they're already out of answers. But that was a great achievement. I'm confident that we got good grades with that.

Maybe my luck was because I ate crinkles before our oral exams as my lunch matched with Covacho. Crinkles always make me lucky (i think..hehe).

After the oral, I went straight to XU-Net since my companions were there too. It was almost 2pm and I realized that I have too meet Sir Francis to discuss and ask for help. Unluckily, he wasn't available so I have to deal with my program errors by myself. It was 3pm when I found Arvin outside XU-Net waiting for his turn. Arvin is a senior ComSci student so without a second thought, I asked him to help me out with my project. And so the errors of program totally reduced to TWO (2)! At 4pm, he had to go and I thanked him. I spent another hour for my program and I solved one problem. So that leaves the last problem left unsolved. But my eyes were getting sick of the monitor so I decided to go home.

So there, that's what happened in my day which is really worth the CRINKLES..!! nyahahaha!! I'll buy crinkles for tomorrow too for luck.
