Recess to an ICAn always means:
(a) snack time
(b) sleeping time
(c) more time for studying and/or finishing homeworks/projects
(d) more kalokohans
(e) all of the above
But for our classmate Tatel, she uses her Recess time wisely: she catches up on her encyclopedia-reading, of course! What did you expect from a Promil Kid?
One time, seatmate Ongson noticed Tatel reaching for a huge encyclopedia from her bag and started a conversation with her.
Ongson: Oh, nasa E ka na??
Tatel, silent.
Ongson, her voice the perfect blend of playful mockery and cockiness: Ako nasa O na ako eh!
Tatel, opening the page where she left her bookmark, totally ignoring Ongson.
After a long, awkward silence,
Ongson: So anong bago sa Earth ngayon?
