Epilogue :)) A random post detailing what happened during the rest of my sembreak..

October... )
November... )

I've stopped writing after this. The week after was spent on enrolling. I had a good time with my best friends at MOA on the 8th, then spent one whole day on late registration on the 10th. I wasn't able to get any slots for PE, so I just changed my MST subject from NatSci 4 to NatSci 8. School started on the 11th (Tegoshi no tanjoubi ^^,). And that's about it. I'm still far from being productive during breaks, but at least I didn't spend it slacking off everyday :)

Part 1: Prologue :)

Finally... a break from university. I've been yearning for this day for the past three months. Haha. I'm officially free from school work for the next 21 days :)

So... I have exactly 21 days of break from uni and well, the idea of writing about each one of it suddenly popped into my mind. You see, I have this tendency to slack off and be unproductive during days off, so I thought that writing about how each day of my sembreak went will somehow add to my motivation to do some productive things during the break. Today's the first day, and somehow it felt really boring at home. I woke up at half past 12 (dang, my biological clock's getting worse and worse; I seriously need to fix my sleeping habits)... and I did nothing the whole day but slack off and watch TV (there's a bit of reading, too). I felt really bored. The past 3 months have been quite bloody for me; I had something to do everyday and it was tiring, but now I feel somehow bored because I have nothing to do. Then suddenly I remembered that I actually have a lot of things to do, things that I've left hanging around for so long (lots of things to organize, finish and stuff), and since I'm complaining of boredom, I thought that this is the right time to accomplish those things. So, to remind myself, here's my to-do list again. (And now I'm reminded that I never got around to posting my to-do list for summer. I've planned on posting it once all the items have been checked off, but I haven't finished doing some of the things I listed there until now. Tsk. I know, I'm a slacker.)

Things to do, Sembreak 2010 :) )

There. I feel like I'm still missing a lot, but I think that the number of things to do is just enough to be finished in 3 weeks. I hope I don't slack off and be able to finish these in the coming days. Moreover, I also want to have gimmicks/get-togethers with my high school friends because it has somehow become boring just staying in the house ^^, Lastly, I hope my motivation won't leave me hanging in the middle :D

Come on apathy, just leave me alone already ^_^"

Cheers to the 111th Independence Day Celebration of the Philippines! ^_^

Speaking of independence, recently I've been telling myself I should become more independent. You see, my sister is planning/planned (I don't know if she's really going to pursue it, though)  to rent a room or something and live by herself for the mean time since the network she's working for is quite far from here and her call times are like, so early. I thought "That's cool~".. but when I think of it, it seems to be really hard. I realized that there are a lot of things I can't do on my own (i.e. waking up early, haha).  Some people ask me why I'm not going to rent a dormitory for college. Well aside from the fact that the university's not really that far from here, I didn't want to live in a dormitory because how could I when I don't even know how to do some chores by myself? And I'd probably always be running late for school. Haha. I should really start learning how to become responsible. Or else I'll be a goner in a few years if I don't. Haha.

In connection with the title of this post, I've just watched the Hanamaru Cafe (2008.11.7) episode with Toda Erika as guest. She talked about a lot of stuff and boy, her father is really strict! She said she didn't really have that much freedom at all because 1) she has a curfew, and it's 6:30; 2) she wasn't allowed to go to festivals and such (aww.. festivals seem to be so much fun, I wish I could go to one myself); 3) even when she's in high school she wasn't really allowed to go to her friends' places. It made me realize how lucky I am that my parents aren't that strict. Haha. But her dad seemed cool. He taught her some kind of martial art when she was three and she took up a lot more lessons, one of which is also some kind of martial art. How I wish I took up lessons when I was a kid. I mean, I could still learn a lot of things now but, it would be much easier if you learned when you were a kid right? Anyway, I really like her because she seems so natural and bubbly. She even admitted to being boyish (like me).

Back to the topic of freedom and independence, I really think people should cherish the freedom that our heroes once fought for, but at the same time.. we should also be responsible.

I'm being so random now, I'd better end this post. Jaa~

I don't know whether I like rain or not. There are times when I don't like it, maybe because of the fact that I'm the type of person whose mood can be influenced by weather and rain gives off a gloomy atmosphere. On a practical note, rain can sometimes make things inconvenient. Having to bring an umbrella, getting your clothes and stuff wet, I find those things annoying. So I guess that's why I don't like the rain at times.

But there are also times when I do like it. Sometimes I like watching drops of rain fall down from the sky. I think it gives off the same feeling as watching clouds pass by during a sunny day. And when the rain brings a cool air, then it's much more relaxing to sleep at night.

This year it's a rainy summer. It's been raining even though it's only April. I know that the transition from summer to the wet season usually begins in May, so having it rain as early as April is well... kinda weird. It's really hard to predict the weather these days.

And today, I just had some rainy day misadventures. I went to the University of the Philippines Manila (or UPM for short, my chosen uni) earlier to apply for this Advanced Placement Exam and well.. I had some misadventures today which includes:

- Lining up in the wrong window
- Leaving the queue for the cashier due to non-usage of common sense
- Leaving Window 1 while the business was not yet done
- Looking like an idiot while trying to wash my feet at the fountain in front of Rob Manila (Midtown wing) XDD

Details of my rainy day misadventures :)) )
Oh, what a day :))
