A Jovial Connection

We meet again, my dear reader. I presume that you have read my two other recollections because this is still a continuation of the other two which are entitled: "A Sublime Reminiscence" and "A Rapturous Continuance", which are all about my high school life. Hope you can still delve and bear these recollections that I am about to show you. Relax and enjoy, then.

As I continue to walk on the path of maturity and awakening to the true colors of this ill-stricken world, I never noticed that I was in my third year in my high school journey. My third year came with ill-fortune. We were to encounter the most ardous subjects which includes Statistics, Trigonometry and Research. Not to mention our advance study of Chemistry and Biology. We all braced for our upcoming doom but instead of being afraid, we welcomed it with smiles and full of mirth. Call our batch idiots but we were too opmistic to mind those horrid subjects. This year was the best year of my life because I had the privilege to experience the Junior-Senior Promenade, an event where all the juniors and seniors had to place aside there nasty behaviors and be formal like lords and ladies in a royal banquet. Another was our Research project where it is required for the third years to come up with a project with connection to Science and Technology. I also experienced my first love during this year. I had a lot of small expeirences that I would treasure too, even small chats with my peers.

I was designated in a section full of serious and ambitious people. The once section Benton was divided between the sections, Bocobo and Sison. Sison was the bunch of noisy ones. Almost all of them were carefree but in our section, I was like in a dank cell with all the most hideous villains staring at me(no offense!). Our section was serious and totally concerned on winning activities but I still like the section because I was given the chance to mingle with a lot of personalities. Life in my third year was like a roller-coaster. Emotions rise and fall and the section almost fell apart because of a stupid play. Accidentally, two of the persons who were fighting that moment, became lovers. Believe it or not(*laughs*). I was totally shocked with the various personalities but still, I had adjust to the lot and the section was tied and bonded strongly. After a series of arguments, debates and programs, we all arrived to the most dreaded day of our lives. The Research project proposal. My research project was all about candles and my extra component, gelatin. I had discovered that gelatin could help decelarate the melting rate of candles because the gelatin has a property that could help slow down the melting rate of candles. Yet, my research proposal was not accepted because it was too easy and the variables are too few.

Even though my proposal wasn't accepting, I'm still happy to graduate without any worries and with my friends. It is so star-crossed that we have to leave a good friend and and batch mate, the ever-tactless Robert. Yet, what I learned from this year is to be patient and industrious because with these, we can really have what we desire. I had learned to be more discreet when it comes to criticizing because a lot could be hurt in the long run. I also learned that friendship is special and we all companions to guide and help us in our troubles and worry. This is my third year in my high school. My life. Me, Monsieur Aronnax.
