Today is THE DAY! What if I lost?

8:30 am

I wonder what time will they announce it? Do I have the chance to win? Will I flagellate myself if I lost?

10:30 am

I think I lost...

12:00 noon

I'll have my lunch... Seriously, I think I lost... But maybe they'll announce it after lunch time.

12:30-1:00

Scanned 8 mile, Lord of the Rings I & II DVDS. Found out that 8 Mile works, but the two LOTR had to be returned. I definitely lost.

1:00-3:00 pm

Watched Chicago to stop myself from getting crazy. Decided that it's amazing they pulled off a musical in the 2003. I think I lost.

3:00-4:00

I definitely lost... Must go to school now... Big street party coming up and I'm a staff

4:30

Borrowed Ro-anne's phone to text them and ask them if I lost...

Sent this message: "Please break my heart and tell me that the winners already know that they've won."

5:00 pm

Their reply came... "Christian" won the critic's choice award. "upside-down"won the people's choice award. Thanks for joining... You can visit our website at www.theguidon.com "

5:01 pm

Officially dawned to me that I really, truly lost...

5:18 pm

Asked the rest of the production to excuse me... I rushed to netopia to blog about what happened, and to visit the website... Found out that their effing jpegs are not even working...

Gawd, losing sucks!!! I hate it... I hate it!!! I hate it...

I guess, I'm disappointed. I guess I should cry about it, but hell, I'm just not the crying type.

And oddly, I really wish I'm truly disappointed... like I should feel depress... para sobrang maramdaman ko naman ang malungkot to the point of insanity... Kaya lang... my alter ego is cheering me up... Giving me encouraging words... Shet, how I wish I'm not the eternal optimist that I am.

And now, I'm sorry... I'm saying sorry to all those who encouraged me and who believed I could win... because well, obviously, I lost...

But thank you just the same... Lei, Leidy, Pammy, Kathy, Patwee, Gabby, and Shaynie...

I also hate the fact that my favorite photos didn't win...
