Today I woke up with a light heart and a face showing no signs of stress, a rarity these past few days. Because of Typhoon Frank, classes were canceled today, which was a good thing (the cancellation of classes, not the typhoon, which wasn't exactly a blessing because it left a lot of casualties in its wake).
It was a good thing that I accomplished most of my homework over the long weekend (we didn't have classes on Friday because of a school holiday), because if I hadn't, I wouldn't be able to enjoy today as much as I am right now. Though I can't really say I'm enjoying because the perfectionist in me has this urge to go back and browse through assigned readings again and to review my homework. I was able to finish watching the first nine episodes of Code Geass R2 today - thank you so much, Lesly, for burning the episodes for me! Also, I was able to take a long and rejuvenating nap.
Doing regular maintenance on the Celadon website is a bit of a chore, though. Unluckily enough, the Internet stopped working last night while I was halfway through site maintenance. So right now I'm in an Internet cafe again - actually, I've been here for the past four hours or so - but it's lots quieter here than the last Internet cafe I visited. It's a bit more pricey, but still affordable, and besides, the marginal benefits (i.e. peace and quiet) exceed the marginal cost (haha, now the things I've learned in Economics are getting to my head). I hope I can finish all of the things that need to be done - or, at least, most of the things that need to be done - before it gets dark.
Tomorrow, it's back to regular classes. Back to Accounting 10 (I'm kind of neutral about this subject - I don't hate it yet, but I don't exactly love it), Psych, Eco, and, the day after tomorrow, back to Filipino and Statistics. If there's any consolation, I have JSP 103 on Wednesday, which is worth looking forward to, and then there's Recweek (Recruitment Week for student organizations), which is fun. So far, I've joined Celadon (our school's organization for Filipino-Chinese students), AMA (our school's management association), ALAC (Lingua Ars Cultura - it's an organization for people who are into foreign languages and cultures; I don't know any friend of mine who joined, but I'm joining anyway), and A-Stat (Statistics Circle - I don't love Statistics, but maybe I might learn to love it). Then I'm also joining the anime club and the Freelance Art Society. Yup, that's how much I love joining student orgs.
But for now, I'm going to enjoy this brief moment of respite - this calm before the storm, so to speak.
