La la la.

In life, one makes many mistakes--so do I. Well, here are some things that I really regret – because things could have been better if only I had made a good move/decision. Continue reading if you want to know more.

1. Piano.

Well. Uh. Piano. I’m learning to play the piano now. NOW. Why now? Well, my skills aren’t that good. I’m already 14 and I think I’m still a noob with it. I’m a classical piano player, not a chord pianist (not even a uido*!. but I wish I would become one). When I sit on the chair and play the piano, I always remember the time when I was 8 years old. It was vacation time (year 2002). Since I had to do nothing that time, my parents asked me what i wanted to do to kill the summer heat and boredom in me. “Since it’s hot, I would take ice skating lessons! Yea!”, I said. “Ooh. Okay. Well. What if you take piano lessons?” my dad replied. I thought about it for a day and REALLY DECIDED to take ice skating lessons.

Conclusion:

I should have been better in playing the piano now if only i had taken those piano lessons when i was young. Well, it wasn’t a big regret after all—since I’ve enjoyed and learned in the whole ice skating course.

2. Sci-Contest. (September 20, 2008)

So far, this is the biggest thing that i regret in my life. “What is the study of insects?”. 5….. 4…. 3… 2.. 1. Go! The contestants jotted down their answers in the bond paper provided to them. “Ok! answers up!”. One by one the contestants raised their papers. The judges checked their answers. S01* correct, S02 correct, S03 Correct , S04 WRONG.

*S01. The S stands for Sophomore and the 01 is on what chair you’re seated. (01 is in the first in the front).

S04. That was my number. Guess what I answered?

Study of insects (for me) is ENTEMOLOGY.
I should have gotten a higher place if and only if:
a.) I had read more about the biology book that I have. (because two of the questions in the hard portion were written there! One was: What is the scientific name of the organism that is also known as the sulphur pearl of/from the Namibia Sea?)
b.) I had answered that study of insects thingy CORRECTLY!. Yea!

Found in my cabinets. Well, I think I should treasure this forever.
