cramming....again!

rushing to finish a take home exam due tomorrow. have no idea how I'm to go about it. have final exam on thursday...totally have not started studying for that one.

so looking forward to sem break but just realized that I will have no break because I have two papers to finish. plus the pleadings I have to do for ola. damn!

my schedule is shot to hell for next sem. I want to avoid some professors but cannot really decide because I still have to wait for one more class.

well, got to get back to work.

end of ola

finally! got through the legal clinic alive. had dinner with my teammates and sl last wednesday. and had 2 days vacation because of the typhoon. don't have that many regrets, just so glad that it's finally over...I know, I know... I still have another semester to get through and will probably have the same cases over again, but I can't help rejoicing over the fact that I survived without losing so much of myself.

hoping to get the same day for ola duty but still waiting on one of my back subjects. everything hinges on the schedule of my required classes...hope they won't conflict with my desired ola duty time. have only 14 units to go, I'm still considering whether I'll take extra units...don't know, I really want an easy life.

finals are just around the corner, anyway, I got a really low grade for the midterm exam I really studied for. got highest in the second quiz for another subject. oh well, win some lose some.

today is the last bar sunday...had very little sleep helping with the bar operations...can't believe that next year it would be me and my friends (God willing!) taking the bar.

have a finals exam this thursday...slightly worried about it but can't do anything about it either. have finished all my hearings and had the next ones scheduled for november. but still have pleadings to finish (hate this part, too)

I'm soooo looking forward to my vacation, but I know that until we turn over the cases to the next intern, I'm still responsible for them. trying to figure out if I want to come back to the same schedule...but I think it will all boil down to the other classes I want to take.

have grown fat the last couple of months...must be because of all the junk I'm eating to make myself happy...hahaha!!! that and the fact that there are a lot of good things to eat.

wake me up...you know the song

I've been busy the past weeks. suddenly my slow and lazy life is filled with deadlines and with the finals looming in the horizon...I find that I have not learned much during the semester.

one of my professors had to gall to appear only 4 times for the whole semester. sure he scheduled make-up classes but he was never there...in short, I'm going to have to study the subject on my own.

have hearings to attend and pleadings to finish...love my sl's system of work but find myself wishing that I won't ever have to go to court again or draft another pleading.

just one more semester until I graduate. I'm not exactly looking forward to it but have resigned myself to the thought...

you are the one

watched the movie you are the one...had a great time...cheesy romantic moves got to me...hahaha! course, it just might be that I'm really dying for a little romance in my own life.

"ber" months and christmas songs

it's september...and I already heard a christmas song over the radio. what is it with the "ber" months that get us automatically thinking of christmas anyway? I already have friends counting down the days until christmas... helloo!!! that's still a lifetime away. I have to get through the semester first, then the sem break, then part of 2nd semester, and of course my birthday! before it's christmas.

enough about that. have been busy doing mostly nothing the past week. don't know why, but I feel so tired lately...

remember the midterm exam I crammed for? well, I got a pretty good grade...almost made it to the top 5 of the class! have another quiz coming up in a couple of weeks. the other exam result will be released next saturday...that one, I'm really praying I did well.

anyway, it's september, and I can almost see the light...hahaha! at the end of this long dark tunnel. sometimes have an almost irresistible urge to scream and ask for mercy...but my more disciplined self always wins in the end. so I trudge back to my pc and get to work...

got plastered

was my brother's birthday, and of course, had a party. spent little time with friends over the weekend. and oh yeah! had my midterm exam last saturday. not sure if I did well on that one. felt a little easy but then again the last time I thought an exam was easy, got a really bad grade.

still in denial over the coming week...don't want to do anything. have decided to let god handle everything else. now doing minimal work on my requirements...am tired of running all over the city to get things done.

feel like being a loner for a while...and lately, I've been feeling very irritated at a friend of mine. must have reached my tolerance limit. hehehe. will probably be super bitchy in the next few weeks or so... am apologizing in advance to those who will get hurt.

I've been busy

started the week by not attending class last monday. no regrets on that one, I totally enjoyed vegetating in front of the television the whole day…I know I know, I have an exam on saturday…I’ve already started studying anyway. yehey for me!

tuesday, had a hearing which was reset…so I spent the whole morning battling traffic going to court and back to school. was scheduled to recite too, so I spent the afternoon studying for my class (therefore, too busy to study for my exam) made a friend, well sort of anyway…

today, got a new case assigned to me…uurgh!!! I really hate it and everything it entails (will probably hate everything connected to the legal clinic until I’m done with it – note that I didn’t say that I hated the people I work with) have a super soon deadline for which I did a few things tonight (therefore, still busy) but on the upside, got really good news today…the details I might share later.

I’ve been busy but I still have time to do this…heeheehee…nobody can say that I don’t have my priorities straightened out.

contemplating my circumstances

it's a holiday tomorrow but I have a make-up class. I have a hearing on tuesday for which I think I'm relatively prepared, but I'm still wishing that it won't push through. I'm already tired of all the things that I have to do for the legal clinic. I started the semester dreading it. now I really hate it. don't like working for these people. I'm not interested in their problems.

was talking to my friends last friday, and I told them that I am now ready to try another relationship...a real one with commitment and not just some random fling. hope that was true, because sometimes I can't help being afraid of trusting another person that much.

have midterms on the 26th, this time I've already started studying...don't want to be caught unprepared again. besides, I know I will need all the studying I can get for this subject.

it's almost the end of august, I don't feel like I've accomplished much...except for the legal clinic...I feel like everything I've done has been for that. well, we did manage to submit our slr topics on time. I guess we'll have to consult next week to find out which topics have been approved.

so looking forward to the end of the semester (but not the final exams). hope I survive the next months.

gone in 1 week

I know I said I won't drink for the rest of august. but last night up to early this morning I did. hahaha. had a great time with my blockmates...even though it was just a few of us, the main stays at stuff like these, who were there. so there we were, we started drinking at around 8:30pm. this time nobody got really trashed...the pacing was just right and we consumed more alcohol even though there were fewer of us.

of course, the talk invariably turned to our love/sex lives...won't bore you with the details. hahaha.

ended up tripping on a friend of mine...poor guy. rich and I weren't even tipsy that time.

feeling very productive

have just completed several proposed outlines for our slr topics...yes, I've finally decided to just join a team for slr. and got several things done for the legal clinic.

have decided to stay at home today because the weather is decidedly gloomy. and besides, I don't really have anything important to do in school, since, thanks to the power of the internet, I could do everything at home.

I was just telling a friend of mine that I was super lazy over the weekend and he said that it's the middle of the sem, everyone's allowed to slack off a little. I didn't have the heart to tell him that I'm generally lazy just that I was SUPER lazy over the weekend...it was unusual even for me.

but, I feel like I'm making up for the super lazy weekend today...heehee. for some people, what I have accomplished so far today may seem like nothing, but believe me, being able to work and finish 2 different "thinking" things in a span of 3 hours is cause for celebration for me.

will now attempt to try a 3rd thinking thing...in other words, I will attempt to study coz I'm drafted to recite tomorrow.

staying up late doesn't help

slept the whole day today. so now I can't sleep. I promised myself that I'd make my schedule more reasonable...you know, no more dawn appointments online...heehee. but, here I am, nearly midnight and still awake...mind you, I haven't done anything productive over the weekend. well, I did make some progress on some of my slr topics...deadline is this week.

have decided to sleep by midnight and wake up at 6 or 7 or 8 in the morning. but won't start today. have another midterm exam coming up... I'm in worse shape for this one, coz I really don't understand most of what I'm reading for the subject. and this time, I have resolved to start studying tomorrow... if I get everything done for the legal clinic...damn!damn!damn!

just about to give up on my candy...he's not giving me any encouragement anyway. have decided to move on...hate being on the rebound. bad for my disposition, and generally makes me very naughty...winkwinknudgenudge
