Dettached


Hmm… I’m procrastinating. Damn.

This is just randomness. Nothing to write about, really. I’m getting tired of my Multiply page already, and I haven’t even done much to it. What blah. It’s utter vanity, that page. I dunno why it feels that way to me. It just does. It would be better if my friends in high school had Multiply pages, but NOOOO, they were too busy, they said. There are other more important things to do. Bummer. Not even my closest friends have Friendsters. It’s a sad, sad thing. (-_-)

I have LOADS to do for school and have yet to start. It wouldn’t be too bad if I didn’t have to worry so much stuff at home too. ::sigh::

Think positive! Have faith! :)

I’m all over the place right now. Been physically exhausted the past week. I don’t exactly know why. Maybe commuting has taken a toll on me. I used school service froim kindergarden up to high school. And if ever I did commute, it would only take one jeepney ride of about 5 to 15 minutes. Now it takes me an hour. Shortest would be 45 mins. Not to mention that I have to wake up at 4 am in the morning when I only slept at 12. Gad! Never mind. I have to get used to it. I Just have to suck it up, I guess. Just venting right now. Hee. =p

Ash Wednesday just went by. I wasn't able to get ashes on my forehead. I'd just feel like a hypocrite anyway. Blah. Hole Week's approaching, and my favorite activity Visita Iglesia. I love churches, btw. ^_^

One month to go, and my Freshman year will be OVER… OMFGAD!!! I can’t believe it!!! One more month of torture… and then a break… and then summer classes for Math12.

Hopefully, I’ll survive.

Just to list the things I have to accomplish…

This Week:
1. a 4-Level Outline of my Research Paper (Wed)
2. a Fil Paper about being a cat/dog (Mon)
3. 2 Poems for a portfolio in Lit (Wed/Fri)
4. the First Draft of my Research Paper (Fri?)
5. review for 3rd long exam in Math (Tues)

Before mid-March:
1. the 2nd Draft of my Research Paper
2. a Reflection Essay in English
3. being in the Set Committee(?) for the Class Play in Lit (May Day Eve by Nick Joaquin)
4. a Final Paper for Fil
5. the Class Project in Botany (Sense of Taste: Love it. Iron Chef! Hehe.)
6. a Literary Paper No. 2: Poem Analysis

Coming Tests:
1. 4th long exam in Math
2. 3rd long exam in Fil (and maybe a 4th one too…)
3. 3rd long exam in Botany (and maybe a 4th one too…)
4. Math finals
5. Lit finals

Anecdote:
Our usually meany but cheery prof in English went about teaching our class one day with a sort of suplado air. Not a good mood, not a good sign. So one of my block mates commented on it, and the exchange went about like this...
Bianca: Sir, why are you sad?
Sir V: What?
B: Why are you sad?
V: [pause] I'm not sad. I'm dettached. There's a difference. [with matching point of a finger]

LOL. ^_^ He was much nicer after that though. Hehe.

After that came a day when he was teaching us in his usual corny cheery self, but all of us were listening like the dead... no one responding, everyone quiet, and still in their seats. Weird muhn. LOL.

Kung Hei Fat Choi and that TIME of the Month


Happy Chinese New Year!!! Harhar...:D

Now, I'm not Chinese (Partly anyway, just a tiny bit: my mom's dad was part Spanish while my mom's mother was part Chinese. Ha! Talk about multiple ethnicity.=p), I'm a Filipino at heart, but what's wrong with a little celebration? It's proof of how diverse Filipinos are! Although we can also say skeptically that it's another proof of our identity crisis. Eeek. ^_^ ::I know, I'm blabbering. Bleh.::

Wala lang.. had an okay weekend. Much to do, but I, ever the procrastinator of school work (not to mention master crammer), did sometihng else instead. Believe it or not, I would much rather do household chores than do my homework. I know, I'm weird. =p It's just one of my moods.. I'm over PMS right now, which means.. you know. Mostly I just want to sit around or lie down right now because I feel so effing heavy it hurts. :( I hate this.. I want it to be over. But then after that it'll be back again next month.. ::sigh:: The pains of being the female sex. MEN should be GRATEFUL. The jerks. >_< I'm in man-hater mode because of this thing. Ugh!

I'm having this trend where all have to write about is the weekend. Honestly speaking, that's all the time I have. :| It's been a hectic week for me at home. All about turbulence, man. Heaven help me. (-_-) Missed a lot of classes because of my migraine attacks again. Bummer. I hate that. Watched Entablado's "Sandaang Panaginip" last Friday though, which was a GREAT show. The best I've watched so far, in my opinion. Much parallelism to the present governement, but very comedic in a way. Hehe. =p

Chinese astrology said last year was a cruel year for me (boy, was THAT true, if i say so myself.. grr..), but this year'll be different coz it'll be all about me and my luck. Ha! Wish ko lang. As usual, with that prophecy comes "it's all in the hard work.." chuvaness. Hee. :]

Well, I'm off to do just that.

Chaotic Order



Man... It has been one hell of a week...

Monday: We didn't have classes because it was Presiden't Day.

Tuesday: My PE Midterms finally pushed through. I got to serve 3 out of 8. Pfft. Got my topic proposals back from Fil12. None were accepted. So far I have one still negotiable. Pfft. The good news is that I got a 152 on my Math Midterms! Yey! ^_^

Wednesday: Had our oral report in Botany about Plant Dyes. We sucked big time as the first reporters. Humiliated. Joked about. Watched like guinea pigs. 'Nuff said. At keast it was free cut in Lab.

Thursday: Had long exam in Fil12. Two parts. Objective and essay. Got the minimum passing mark on the objective exam. Whew. Essay part has yet to be checked. Cut PE. Had to watch The Glass Menagerie at 7pm. Went to McDo and Gateway (Fully Booked and National Bookstore ~ in the true spririt of Lit Majors. LOL.) with Katz before watching. The play finished at 10pm. Gad, it was LONG. Quite boring if you already know the story. There's much to say about the actors, but no time right now. Have to write a Lit Paper about the play anyway, so... :) Went home at about 11.

Friday: Nothing much. Exhausted. Sleep-deprived. That sort of stuff. Almost didn't attend Glad's 18th Birthday. Glad that I did, though. Hehe. Thanks to Jhunie and Jaed! It was great~ we laughed and cried and ate! =p Went home at past 12. Thanks for the ride home, Lea!!! =D

Thanks to Mary for the 2 pics. More to come. ^_^

Now all have to say as a finale is... Weekend? What weekend?! Gotta get back to work... and so, goodbye...

illuminate


I had my Lit14 midterms yesterday. Originally it was scheduled from 4:30 pm to 9:00 pm. I finished at 6:30. Damn, what a waste of effort on my mom's part. I could have just gone home all by myself, without them having to fetch me. Tsk. It felt odd finishing early... I wrote everything I needed to write, I think. Didn't know some of the objective terms though. Heck, for all I know I''ll only get a C. Or worse. I hope that doesn't happen.

I slept for 30 minutes in the library. Harhar. I felt so refreshed afterwards. Been sleep-deprived because of our botany paper, and upcoming oral report. We just had to be the first. Urgh. >_<

I slept almost the whole day today. Feeling a bit down. I feel like I want to do something. Promote social awareness, do charity, do community work... Just... something. See my multiply blog entry.

I'm surrounded by so many people who are so living in their own beautiful world. All summery and fortunate and blessed. All pretty, beautiful, and comfortable. I'm poisoned by self-absorbed pricks who can't think of anyone else's sufferings aside from their own. Drowning in self-pity because they feel incompetent. Boo-fucking-hoo.

What is it with the present generation?! What is with me today?! URRRGGHH! *_*

I want to do something... but what?
