3 Days Grace
This week has been both a blessing a wake up call for me.
We didn't have class on Monday because of the SONA and holiday for Inglesia ni Kristo's anniversary celebrations. Apparently, a lot of students took a chance at this holiday for a good rest, a gimmick or for studying. I honestly believed half of the Philippine's population DID NOT listen to President Arroyo's speech and just went about their own business. I admit it that I went my way to study for my 3 LT's, spread out over the next 3 days:
-The Accounting LT was scheduled for Monday, but was moved to Tuesday due to the holiday imposed.
-Italian was canceled due to the same reason, so Wednesday was the obvious new date for the test.
-Sir Canonigo explained over the yahoo! groups that the Math LT had been moved to Thursday and that we would have Wednesday for preparation time.
That said, these past three days have been the most hectic, fast paced, mentally draining yet emotionally rewarding so far in my college life! There wasn't a time this week that I wasn't dreading a test, a mistake or even a fluke. I wanted this week to end badly and for the long weekend to roll in (today is St. Ignatius of Loyola's feast day, therefore Ateneo de Manila does not have classes, sucks for Xavier XD). In other words, no matter how painful it is if I should fail the tests, or how lucky I would be to pass or get high marks, I just wanted everything to be over and done with. I am confident that I prepared well for the tests, and so a feeling of regret shouldn't dawn on me once the papers are passed back to us.
(I'm hoping for better Math and Accounting scores. asa T___T)

My parents got angry again for me staying too late for ACLC. I didn't expect that our prayer session would last for a solid 3 hours, then we grabbed some dinner and I ended up at Ash Creek at around 11 pm (Filbert dropped me there). I understand how my Dad would be ticked off so badly, but I can't really accept the fact that he would consider what I do with ACLC as 'useless'. I understand his point that I go to school to study and not for the organizations. But, it's part of a student's life and motivation to join organizational activities. I mean, I wouln't meet most of my friends in college without these orgs, but i guess its my fault.
Bad breaks aside, I guess this is the wake up call for me to just be more responsible with how i manage time. If an org activity gets in the way already, I guess I have to leave home early... :( even if I don't finish it.
Woohooo, one of my long lost friends is back :) Glad to talk to her again!
