Hmm... I've got a few things to do so I might as well list them down now.
SCHOOL STUFF
-Econ 172 paper: needs to be relayed to Mae, but Alex still hasn't passed her part, so there's no way I can do my part. Chalk this one up to "forces beyond my control" and move along
-CW 10 paper: I need to make my three page story reach six pages and make it more dramatic, add more character development... might be fun.
-Econ 106: Problem Set's going to be uploaded tomorrow. Major bummer.
-Econ 172: Exam's on March 8. I might as well start studying to fill the void that is my mind. I don't want a repeat of my last horrible exam. If Tin can get an uno, I can get a 1.75 or 1.5. At least, I hope I can.
-French 10: I went out in the middle of class because I had a headache (I forgot my glasses... never again...) so I have to study for the quiz I missed. Might be easy/hard. I'll find out on tuesday.
-Econ 151: Might as well start on our group paper, since I'm busy anyway...
MISC
-Econ 106 make-up class
-JMA Event: Party at night somewhere, might not go since Alex is submitting her paper late, I need to play catch up.
-Ecosoc Scav Hunt and Vice Night: This is tomorrow. Econ 106 make up class comes first for me so I'm skipping scav hunt. I'm not sure if I'll go to Vice Night.
-Civil War 7: It's finally out. I might get someone in the tambayan to go with me to SM north to pick up the latest copy.
-UP AISEC's Party: Mia invited me and I'm thinking about it. Its on March 3. I've got no one to go with though, anybody interested?
-Campaign Period: I'm running for third year batch representative for the School of Economics! Go me!
So... now that's out of the way... let's finally talk about something I learned about myself.
I find it so hard to begin things, and I find it harder to end them. It's like moving a rock, it takes a while before you get it to budge, but once you get it to move, it's damn hard to make it stop. I think I'm an inertia kind of guy that way. I'm just so comfortable with routines sometime that I get trapped in them.
I really wish I'd start paying more attention to my academics. I need to study more and start spending less time in the org. I swear its distracting me. I'm not reading up for classes anymore... I'm way behind in Econ 106 and 172 as well as French 10 and Psych 101. Too many requirements to meet... and I'm starting to get too comfortable in Econ that I'm losing my drive to excel. Its just that people keep telling me that I'm all that, that I can get high grades without studying, but the truth is, they're still not at the level I want them to be. I want to be much much better than I am right now. I still feel lacking.
If I looked better, would it make any difference? I keep praying the answer is yes.
