First day in school and I'm already in 8th grade. First time na hindi ko kaklase si Via, sabay pa rin kami tuwing break. I should be okay, right?

I was elected as the class' president I don't know if I should accept it. Sabi ni Miss Garcia hihintayin niya yung sagot ko.

I told daddy about it, I was scolded a bit. He told me I shouldn't even think twice about this. He told me to just accept it so I'll tell Miss tomorrow

I don't think I'm doing a good job as class president, Ma'am Patunco got mad on our section during flag ceremony. I almost cried and wanted to quit but I can't tell dad about it. He'll be dissapointed just like when I told him last year that I only ranked 4th.

It's already 2 in the morning. I woke up because of dad's shout. They're fighting again.

Wesley said takot lumapit sa'kin yung mga classmates ko. They don't call me by my name, they call me president. It felt distant. Sabi niya even though I am approachable mukha akong hindi sila bibigyan ng pansin, my teacher called me an elite. I still believe I'm kind.

Mom checked up on me kung nagising ako sa sigawan nila. Maghihiwalay ba sila? What would that leave me then?

I saw mom crying in the bathroom yesterday, I ended up crying in my room too.

Field trip namin ngayon, batch one kami, too bad section D ang kasabay namin, hindi ko kasama si Via. She introduced me to a new friend yesterday tho, Hana. She's very pretty and polite.

Di alam ng mga classmates ko pano gumamit ng chopsticks ako rin so I just let my hand do the wonders kaso nakatingin lahat sila sakin. Ginagaya yata ako. I can see amazement in their eyes, I'm just as clueless as they are when it comes to things like that

User050617
Di ko alam kung wala talagang may alam samin o kung meron man hinayaan lang nila ako na gayahin ng mga classmates namin, I heard one of them say I am japanese that's why I know how to do that. I am not.

User050617
They look up to me too much. Until the other section came. The guy next to our table from section D walked up to me then he suddenly said, "mali pagkakahawak mo."

User050617
Yung mga kaklase ko na kasama ko sa table yung naoffend para sakin, he didn't care tho lumapit pa siya para itama yung pagkakahawak ko sa chopstick and helped me get the sushi. After that I spent the entire lunch stealing glances at him. Maybe sanay siya sa japanese restau, cool.

Inside that restau nobody pointed out my mistake, siya lang.
