"The most beautiful discovery that true friends can make is that they can grow separately without growing apart." -- elizabeth fowley

so here's the thing, i was feeling sad about something since last night. however, i was able to keep it together.
tonight though, 2 situations totally triggered by lacrimal ducts into action.

situation number 1: aaron PMed me on YM.

aaron lazo (3/19/2002 5:17:50 AM): Hi Torres!
aaron lazo (3/19/2002 5:18:05 AM): currently viewing your FS
Jovlyn Louise Torres (3/19/2002 5:18:13 AM): hi aaron
Jovlyn Louise Torres (3/19/2002 5:18:23 AM): y nmn? hehe. comment! jeje.
aaron lazo (3/19/2002 5:18:31 AM): ok basta ikaw.
aaron lazo (3/19/2002 5:18:37 AM): mamimiss kita torres

mamimiss q mga dudes na to. haaaay!

at first, i didn't actually get what they're saying....
and then i remembered the grave news that was posted on the bulletin boards of the nursing building last tuesday.

1st of all, that tuesday marked the release of the "report cards" of the students. already a frustrating thought, don't you think?
also, there is a list on the 7th floor bulletin board of the students who are allowed to be promoted to the sophomore year.

*FACT: approximately 1600 students were allowed to take the Nursing Aptitude Test (more popularly known as the battery exam.), be interviewed, and be evaluated [other criterion are the entrance examination score and the general weighted average]...
approximately only 1000 students survived.

lastly, at around 3 PM that very same day, a surprise surfaced...
the sectioning procedure changed. we are no longer arranged by the people we enroll with [which basically is our choice] but parted alphabetically. our sections are, therefore, pre-determined by the administration depending on our surnames.
consider the fact that we have NO emotional preparation for this particualr surprise right here.

i guess, i should be thankful because i passed.
i'm just really depressed that i now have no choice but to be parted from the friends i made in the last 10 months, both because of the cut-off and the sectioning.

sigh...

i will definitely miss j14 and j10... ESPECIALLY MS.

but i guess there's no way around that fact that we're going to fall apart now.

for my peace of heart, i'll keep in mind the words that elizabeth fowley [see above quote] uttered once.
for my peace of mind, i promise to keep the pieces of the hearts of these people in a special place in mine.

if you are one of them, remember to keep up with technology.
there's something called the cellphone and the Internet [friendster, multiply, facebook, tagged, myspace, youtube, imeem , etcetera].
oh. and don't forget something called "meeting up during our free time or eating lunch together."

^_^
iLYah guys.
good luck on whatever decision you make from now on.
see you around!
