Hello there, yes it's me. 

As you all may know, it's finally the last day of school today and it marks the start of the term break yay! I'm kinda feeling bittersweet about holidays, firstly because I wouldn't meet my friends every single day and also I'll probably be slacking at home but I'm kind of happy that I'm able to get away from school for a period of time. 

Today, my coursemates and I have this "festival" for us to showcase our application ideas to people from IT companies and from the industry. Well, let's say that my thoughts about the festival and the real festival didn't really align. The first thing when I heard the words "Wicked Festival" is balloon streamers hanging on the walls, music blasting, crowds of people entering the venue and listening to students explaining about their prototypes and all that. In actual fact, it wasn't a festival at all. The venue for my wicked festival, my classroom, looks the same and there wasn't any loud music or batucada members performing (haha kidding). I was pretty disappointed at first but then I figured the calm and soothing atmosphere was better. 

We had about a month to come out with a mobile application idea and we are to display our progress for CAs. Honestly speaking, me and kai were really nervous about explaining our application to industry people because they are more knowledgeable in application making and all of the aspects of IT and most importantly, it was our first time explaining our own app idea. I was pretty psyched to showcase our application and the running prototype because I really like doing this kind of thing. I can say that showcasing (I know that's not the proper term but let's use that for now) is one of my forte. 

We were told to attract as many industry people's attention and make them come to our booth so that we will get more marks and the possibility of getting better grades is higher. Alas, the both of us tried our very best to make every single one of the judges to approach our booth and sell our product. I felt really good when we managed to bring everyone to our booth and we were really confident in promoting our application idea. It was so much better to get so much positive feedback from the judges and hearing that everyone liked our idea really made my day. 

After the last judge gave her opinions and wished us luck, the both of us looked at each other and at that moment, we both felt the huge burden lifted off our shoulders and we immediately hugged each other. Only God knows how may sleepless nights we had to pull just to complete this project and we had so much problems doing this project because of a dead member and it was very calming and assuring to hug Kailee after hearing so much good compliments from people who are experts in the field. 

So after the festival, we met up with Nina and Nini, who were also doing their showcase at the same timing as us and we went for lunch at JEM. All of us didn't feel like going home straight because we wanted to spend the last day of school together. We just spent the rest of the afternoon sitting down and talking about school and everything else. It was a nice end to the great day in school. 

Now, as I'm writing the post, I am still thinking about school and the fact that there wouldn't be any school for three weeks...........hmmmm.........

yes, we took a picture outside the classroom to mark the end of the term hehe

(kailee didn't want to join in :c but I bet ya she'll be taller than everyone of us hehe)
