A Memory (Or Two)
If you don't mind, here are three of my favorite memories from school. These three memories all happened in the year 2020, right before the COVID-19 pandemic shut down schools. All of these were sourced from my diary, which I named after the one who gave it to me, Marie. Also, more context is provided through the words inside the parenthesis.

Dear Marie,
Hello! Today was yet another normal day at school. But today, I saw Ma'am Herminigilda Salac, my Math teacher last year (she had already retired). Also, Ma'am Salac's students came during that time, and it caused reunions from Diamon, Emerald, and Ruby (Grade 7 sections) last year. Badminton classes also went great, and I went into the advanced group. Well, I also planned my toy car for tomorrow. Good night, and see you tomorrow!
Best Wishes,
Mikko

Dear Marie,
Hi! Today was yet another day at school. Well, the Math LT (Long Test) was fair enough, and the ValEd (Values Education) quiz bee was great, I almost got the title of Master of Dating. Also, the Filipino LT went very well, and our group finished the game first. At home, I did some laptop work, where me and my partner start revising our SocSci (Social Sciences) project and also, I devised a good plan for April Fool's Day.
Best Wishes,
Mikko
P.S. The Filipino LT went very well, and our group still had 6 minutes after completing the game. Also, I made the final move. (We were studying one of my favorite books back then, and the LT, which was made into a game, proved my knowledge about that book)

Dear Marie,
Hello! Today was yet another day at school, where there was quite a nice atmosphere. However, at the first break, there was a confirmed case of the COVID-19 in Quezon City (the place where the school was), which eventually led to a suspension of classes. But right before I went to the drop-off area, me and my partner still made the AdTech (Art, Design, and Technology) project, and it had already passed the 3-tile test (The project was a toy car, and it took us a long time to move 3 tiles)! Well, I did some laptop work at home, where I continued my blog. Goodnight, and see you tomorrow!
Best Wishes,
Mikko
Who knew that March 9, 2020 is the last day of face-to-face classes in our school? Until then, me, my classmates, and my friends haven't stepped foot at the campus.
