FCUK.
I didn't fail Accounting. Can you believe that?
A few meetings before the final exam, our accounting instructor said that he was waiting for something. And if that something comes, he won't fail anyone. I guess that something came. My classmates said that he was actually waiting for the board exam results. His brother passed the board exam so, in result, none of us failed. Great. Now, I'll never find out if I really am a lousy accounting student. Well, of course, I know I'm lousy I just wanted to confirm it.
I feel happy and angry all at the same time. Happy because I'm not going to retake Accounting. But angry because I know I didn't deserve that passing mark.
Oh well. Life goes on.
It's my mom's birthday! Happy birthday, Mama! IWAVYOUSOMUCHDROOL!~ |

I'm free!~
The semester is finally over. I just finished taking my last exam 2 hours ago. Accounting is bull. I tried to stay up late to study. I tried. I just...my head was throbbing like hell last night, like some orc was trying to flatten it with his foot. I haven't had a good sleep for the last three days. My body is not used to irregular sleeps anymore. Anyway, I probably failed that exam again. So, I might retake Accounting next semester. FCUK. FCUK. FCUK. I shifted to HRIM because I didn't want to deal with numbers anymore and this is what I get. More numbers. Scarier numbers! Our instructor gave us enough time to study, in fact, he gave us too much time to study. He even postponed the exam. That's why lethargy was able to catch up. I only started studying two nights ago. Only two nights to absorb 8 chapters.
Accounting had been the only subject troubling me this semester. The only subject where I took a written final exam. I was already exempted from taking the finals on Microbiology, Nutrition and History. My Ethics and Management classes only required final papers. My vacation should've started a week ago!
Anyway, I'll try to hope for the best. But right now I feel like crap.
I'm hungry. ~_~

Anyway, I have two take-home exams, one is due tomorrow and the other on Thursday. Problem is...I just found out that my Accounting final exam is on Thursday, not on Saturday. Shit. I spent the last two days relaxing. I had the nerve to because I just finished a batch of last long exams last week. I had to relax because this week is finals week and I needed to regain energy - yeah, what a stupid way to justify my laziness.
I'm almost finished with the exam due on Thursday. So far, I've written 6 pages of rants about the most sensitive issues in Philippine society.
But I haven't started on the one due tomorrow. I need to write a review on Robert T. Kiyosaki's Rich Dad, Poor Dad. Reading the early chapters were okay, it reminded me of some childhood lessons from my mother. But the later chapters were terribly boring. It was echoing the early chapters. And it's incredibly annoying. No offense to those who love the book, I just didn't find it that interesting. It didn't live up to my expectations. People talked about it so much, every one was saying that it's a great and inspirational book. But, I guess, it gives different influences on different people. Anyway, I won't bother finishing the book. I just don't feel like it. It's all the same anyway. So I'll probably start writing the review tonight.

Ever since I got my PC back (Berta) I've been going back to my bad habits again, i.e. spending hours in front of the computer. It took me months to fix what needed fixing but here I am...trashing all that hard work. I'm becoming lazier and lazier - again. Just a month ago, I was this person staying up late every night until the wee hours of the morning just to study, not minding all the eye bags resulting from lack of sleep. But here I am now, staying up late, complaining about my aching back, just to finish a layout that won't even help me get a passing grade in Microbiology. Still, I won't mind failing a long quiz the next day as long as I make a really nifty icon. Very stupid.
But Berta is sick right now. I installed a folder hider, which was a freeware I got from softpedia.com. The first time I tried it, it was working fine. I tried hiding My Documents and that's when it all happened. The My Documents folder disappeared - with all the video and audio files. I tried unlocking it - but it wouldn't show up and I couldn't find it anywhere. I did a system restore, then AVG started malfunctioning. I got a RavMonE virus from an Internet shop somewhere in SC through my flash drive as well (that's what happens when you don't have your own Internet connection). Hey, I didn't have an anti-virus and I needed to finish a report, I had no choice but to open files in my computer without scanning them. I was desperate. I'm having a hard time fixing her, so the best thing to do for now is reformat. But I won't be able to do that until next week, because Berta's drivers are still in my sister's boyfriend's house, which is a three-hour ride from UP. So, I'll just have to wait for my sister to return this weekend. I haven't opened my computer for two days, I'm getting tired of ending the virus' process every boot up. ~_~
Anyhow, I had a long exam in Microbio today. I think I messed it up. I actually slept at four o'clock this morning after wasting almost 5 hours talking with my roommate instead of studying. The talk wasn't pointless - so I don't think it's something to regret about.
Anyway, I'm sleepy. And I have bills at the dorm to pay. |

-EDIT-
Wait, here's a real entry...
The most probable date that I'll get my own Internet connection again is on June, which is on the first semester of the next academic year. I couldn't subscribe yet because it's dorm policy that Internet subscription should always start at the beginning of the semester, my computer was brought mid-sem.
So, all I can do with my PC (who, btw, I have christened Berta) is write academic papers and reports, fiddle with Photoshop (layouts, icons, etc.) and bloat it with audio and image files. I'm working on my website's new layout - the ambience is a bit different from the previous layouts. It's less depressed (since, I'm less depressed as well). But black will still be dominant. =)
I have an oral report later, at 2.00pm and this cough won't stop. Sore throat.
The tutor thing is okay. I've been earning enough to sustain my needs and, well, a few wants. This Saturday and Sunday, I will be teaching (= Php1,600) because Teh Koreans' quarter exams are approaching.
I have History exam tomorrow! Need to study about how the Americans fooled the Filipinos (no offense to my American friends). Oh, and how the Japanese brutally tortured our ancestors. And, yes, how incredibly gullible (as always) the Filipinos are.
And Accounting torture is scheduled tomorrow as well. I failed the 1st Long Exam, btw. It was an "open everything" exam. "Open notes, open books, open everything!" I still failed. Well, more than half of the class failed. But I didn't drop the course, I can't drop. I'm not the drop-it-when-it-is-too-hard Najo anymore.
Also, on Saturday, from Teh Koreans' unit, I have to go to Buendia for our Micriobiology food establishment observation. I have to submit the Methodology Written Report (for the same subject) on the same day as well.
Next week, I have two long exams and much more exams after that.
Well, basically, the only subject that has been pestering me this semester is Accounting. It's too freaking hard. Or, they say, our instructor is so freaking hard on us. He expects us to be Accounting gurus.
Oh, I won Php3,000 worth of e-money here. I just purchased a new 2GB PQI Flash Drive for Php1,050. And I'll either bid on a DVD writer or just buy a new one.
Buh-bye.

I don't think I'll ever get used to being an 18-year-old.
Hmmm...I never thought I would see the day - I actually hate being treated as an adult. Sure, my family had finally realized that I carry their last name and I am not being outcast-ed from decision-making activities anymore but since my adolescent years have expired, my responsibility meter has reached maximum.
Fact#1: I hate responsibilities.
Fact#2: Being carefree is actually easier.
I wish I could be a little girl again and play with my yo-yo and dolls without being scolded.
Fact#3: Children can actually get away with being childish.
I think I have serious issues. I need Freudian help. |

Last Friday was pay day. My first real salary. And I feel guilty. These Koreans have no idea that they're paying us Php300 every night to play with their children. ~_~
Well, we want to teach - problem is these kids don't want to be taught. We don't play the whole two hours, most of it we try to make them understand that we're there to help them study.
But not senseless playing. They actually learn from Scrabble, Sudoku and P.A.N.T.S. Scrabble and P.A.N.T.S. enrich their vocabulary (ha-ha) and Sudoku is Mathematics.

Sometimes, I wish I never took the job.
Yes, I am working. Sort of. I tutor. To Koreans.
It's not really hard. I have two adorable Korean students. I teach them for two hours a night. They are siblings so I go to their house at Ortigas five nights a week, Monday to Friday. They pay me Php150 for each hour. Good pay. The sad part? I commute. Ortigas is two rides away, 1 hour. And I have to walk from SM Megamall all the way to their unit for 10 minutes. It's tiring. And it's eating up too much of my time. I teach for two hours but if you add the travel time, this job takes away 4 hours of my day.
Anyway, I'm missing a lot of the online world. It's not a good thing. But, worse, I'm missing a lot more of the real world. People tell me that I always look tired. I'm stressed out. |

I was walking. Just walking. There were people around. Lots of them laughing and hugging each other. Happy...probably of the sunny day and how it was not too hot. Warm is the word. How warm it was and perfect to slack around and take a break for a little while.
People are so used to running away and hiding from all the worldliness, it makes me want to believe that we human beings are not a bit materialistic.
I was walking. Just walking. Suddenly, my cheeks were wet.

I have a lot of catching up to do...with my online life. My PC is fixed. Yay! But it's still at Kuya Al's, my sister's boyfriend. But they're busy, they don't have time to bring it to the dorm.
Anyway, I'm actually friends with my roommates now. They're pretty fun. And they're cam whores, too. So, yeah, pictures will be posted after I buy myself a bluetooth dongle or a cable.
There was a super-typhoon. Bicol was affected. Again. What's new? I can't contact my mom. I guess there's still no electricity there. I hope they're okay. Thursday was free day, the only good thing about the storm. ~_~
Last night's overnight didn't happen. Ack. Disturbing. I wanted to see my friends. I know, Christmas break is just around the corner but I can't wait that long. Homesickness is eating me. |

( I miss them. )
I wish I could be with them right now. This must be because of the month's breeze. It's cold. Cold makes me feel lonely. Well, I might actually go with Dayan to Begs' later. Overnight. The dormitory is tremendously boring without a TV and a PC. I've read more books than I can remember and that's a very bad sign.
I've been slacking for the last few weeks. Well, relaxing maybe. I'd be dead if I try to relax more. Things have never been easier. I guess I have too little a load this semester or maybe the semester haven't really started for me yet.
I have a new phone, by the way. Finally, I have a new hand-held buddy which is way, way better than the last 3 mobile phones I had (2 of which I lost). A Nokia 7610. It's not really new. My sister, Manay Cho, arrived from Abu Dhabi last week and she gave me the phone because she just bought herself a new one, an N70. My other sister, Manay Len, got herself a new job during the start of the previous month. Along with the job is a new Toshiba Notebook Computer, a new N70 and a new car (all of 'em from the company). And yeah, a way, way higher salary, too. Her boss is pretty nice (because he found out his cousin's wife is my mother's sister, so that makes him act like Mr. Goody Two-Shoes to my sister).
Since I have a new camera phone with a 64MB MMC, I'm turning into a scary cam whore. Ha ha. I might post some more pictures next time. Except for the last three, the pictures above weren't taken with my phone.
P.S. I'm the one in lavender or er purple or, yeah, that color. |

I have a law student for an Accounting Professor. Raise your hand if you want me to drown him. I have nothing against him being a law student - I just wish he'd stop treating us like we're uber good at expressing our opinions like erm - law students. He scares me. U_U
Anyway, dorm life is still Boredom (note: capital-B). Good thing I bought myself three new books. I think I'm going to start a bored?-rent-a-book business inside the dorm. I need cash. First, I have to commute from Caloocan to UP with a box full of inch-thick novels. Then, find the people who haven't returned some of my books yet: The Little Prince, The Alchemist, Nice, A Bend in the Road, Secret Garden, To Kill a Mockingbird, Memoirs of a Geisha...shit, I can't remember the other titles. Oh, my Java book is missing, too.

I live in a dorm now. And it's boring. I wish I had my PC back. I barely go out so I spend every bit of my free time imprisoned by four freaking walls (covered with hideous flower-printed wallpaper). I have three new roommates and they seem...fine (or is it too early to say). NO PC + NO TV = BOREDOM. |

Milenyo blew away our house's roof in the province. When I found out about it, I laughed. Too late before I realized that it was our stockroom's roof. Big money got wasted because of the fcuking typhoon. 100% of Bicol's coconut plantations were destryoed and that means less income for my mom.
Gubat literally looks like a gubat (=forest) right now. There is still no electricity, my mom said the provider assured that the town would be up and running with power on December.

I was at the University Main Library yesterday, trying to review for my Econ exam today. I feel good everytime I enter the General Reference section...for no obvious reason.
I've been trying very hard for the past weeks to make everything work. Not yet sure if the effort is good enough, maybe after this semester, I'll know.
I'm looking for a new place. By place I mean a new bedspace. Haha. I can't believe the dormitories are not accepting new residents yet. I actually believed that they were going to have the renovations this semester because they were all too grumpy to admit new residents. But nooo...it was postponed. I should've been smart enough to not believe them and insisted that they accept my application. Grumpy dorm managers, stupid me.
Something is wrong with the CRS. An error keeps showing up everytime I click the Save button. Darn.
Anyway, we're going to have a career talk on Thursday for my HRIM 100 class. I need to be in a business attire. Make-up, heels and all. My sister already lent me some of her clothes which got me thinking - she doesn't really have that dressing prowess that I thought she had. So I need a new pair of shoes, deadly weapon shoes, the pointed ones, those that kill, and a new top. I have the slacks and blazer already. Oh, I also need a new face. My face is not corporate-face, it's a bum-face. |
