Eating, cooking, and more eating

Yay! It's Christmas break:) I get to do stuff I want to do! I have decidedly set aside my homeworksss: research topic, analysis paper, and I just forgot the others because my mind's a clean slate right now. Haha

I am cooking! After my driving lessons, (my dentless record is over just because of our freaking gate) I want to try cooking. I know I suck. :)

Post-prod syndrome... or NOT.

The prod's over, but why am I still not on the do-your-job and work-on-that-growing-pile-of-papers-on-your-desk mode? I am not happy with myself, though I enjoy driving with my dad instead of staring at countless papers and school stuff. Well, I just want this semester to be over. I feel that I had lost my energy with the prod. Honestly. I hope I'll survive 'til Tuesday, because I'll be starting to work on my homework just tomorrow, and I fear that it's too late to be able to beat the Wednesday deadline. But, yeah. It's my fault anyway.

RANDOM THOUGHTS

Tomorrow, I'll be applying for a driver's license. Now I really need to get a how-to-park-like-a-boss tutorial from Papa. I hate parking. Why can't there just be auto-park for my car? Haha:) Now I'm really owning that car.

My laptop's telling me that I should consider replacing my battery. Oh, well. This must be a sign of aging because just yesterday, the adapter stopped working for the second time. I'm lucky my parents bought me a new one, because if my laptop dies, I'd die.

Oh God, please shower me with good writing and speaking skills. I am very much intimidated. And there's the fact that I want to be a lawyer - which means I would have to talk and speak a lot more. Oh no. Here I go again. I'm talking about my dreams! For now I just like to take it one step at a time. I'll take it one paper (or journal or whatever it is I need to submit) at a time.

We saw that SLR camera at Picture City and Papa told me he likes it. ME TOO!!! :) I'd like to give photography a shot. I've tried playing the guitar, well, yes I suck but not the suck-est it can get. I just want to have another outlet for my creativity, if ever I have some. :)

I was just ranting about the papers I should write but still haven't, yet I just finished typing a considerably long blog post. Yes, that's me.

Haven't posted in what seems like an eternity to me. Anyway...

Hello first sem!

First week of classes

It's Sunday and I'll be going back to Elbi tomorrow for the second week of classes yet here I lie in bed with undone homework and other stuff to do. Yes, I am still on vacation mode, sadly. I hope the lethargy wears off fast.

I will be taking THEA 107 this semester along with 3 other core courses, one language elective which is Spanish, a PE subject, a GE subject, and  CWTS on Saturdays. Actually, I am expecting a lot of sleepless nights. From what I hear, THEA 107 really is a pain in the time-consuming and energy-draining course. No more Sims 3 for me. How sad. Plus, what makes me nervous is that this is the first time that I will be involved in a theater production. I am having mixed reactions toward the subject. For one, I am excited because I am going to be a part of a production. I like theater plays by the way -- well, watching them for sure but being a part of its creation and staging? I am not so sure. There you go. I know it's going to be fun and all but I also know (and I am certain) that I will have to sacrifice a lot of things for it.

With God's grace I have survived four semesters, so I'm halfway through! For the pre-law part at least. But I am really nervous about this semester... Time management, people skills, creativity, responsibility -- these are hard for me. I tend to forget deadlines. I can't make friends easily. I can't think of something creative most of the time. And what more -- I often fail to do things I should do. Through all these, God has helped me for 19 years and still counting. I hope He continues to bless me and the other people around me. As the Bible says:


Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things. 
Philippians 4:6-8 #3


This is really going to be a tough semester, but through God, everything is possible!

Family matters

I LOVE MY FAMILY. I WOULDN'T LET ANYONE RUIN IT, NOT EVEN MYSELF.
There may be tears, there may be sorrow, but what matters most is the stronger love for each other that we gain.

100th post

As much as I want this post to be funny or anything to make you smile, it won't be. Because I'm having mixed emotions at this point in time. Don't ask me why.

I am yrttogorf (crack the code yourself -- or better yet, look at your keyboard and you'll know). Again.

I hate this feeling.

Peer Pressure?

Everyone on Facebook got this "who you are" thingy so I got curious (yes, I always am) about it. I went to the site and saw the questions... Voila! We did this last year, during our bloc meeting! :) Anyway, here is the result:

Your view on yourself:

You are down-to-earth and people like you because you are so straightforward. You are an efficient problem solver because you will listen to both sides of an argument before making a decision that usually appeals to both parties. (Really? People like me? :) Haha. I don't know if I am really a good problem solver...)

The type of girlfriend/boyfriend you are looking for:

You are a true romantic. When you are in love, you will do anything and everything to keep your love true. (Oh really? *sighs)

Your readiness to commit to a relationship:

You are ready to commit as soon as you meet the right person. And you believe you will pretty much know as soon as you might (You mean 'meet'?) that person. (Where is the freaking person?! Kidding! Someday, okay? Because I need to focus. Haha.)

The seriousness of your love:

You are very serious about relationships (Oh well...) and aren't interested in wasting time with people you don't really like. If you meet the right person, you will fall deeply and beautifully in love. (Oh really?)

Your views on education

You may not like to study (*winks) but you have many practical ideas. You listen to your own instincts and tend to follow your heart, so you will probably end up with an unusual job. (Unusual? I'm gonna be a corporate lawyer no matter what:) Hahaha!)

The right job for you:

You're a practical person and will choose a secure job with a steady income. Knowing what you like to do is important. Find a regular job doing just that and you'll be set for life. (I must admit sometimes I am NOT practical.)

How do you view success:

You are afraid of failure (I ADMIT) and scared to have a go at the career you would like to have in case you don't succeed. Don't give up when you haven't yet even started! Be courageous. (Thanks! Let's do this!!!)

What are you most afraid of:

You are afraid of things that you cannot control. Sometimes you show your anger to cover up how you feel. (Why are you so accurate?!)

Who is your true self:

You are mature, reasonable, honest and give good advice. People ask for your comments on all sorts of different issues. Sometimes you might find yourself in a dilemma when trapped with a problem, which your heart rather than your head needs to solve. (WHY ARE YOU SO FREAKING ACCURATE?!)


Hmmm.




Give this personality test a try! :)
