Happy New Yearrrrrr

It's just a few hours away before another year says goodbye, so I guess this is the right time to put this year into retrospect.

That's pretty much it

Leaving Pisay wasn't much of a relief; first year in UP was much harder than I thought it would be. Especially this semester. Plus, parting with close friends is tough, of course. Some went to Manila, and those that are with me in Diliman...well, UP is gigantic, I don't get to see much of them in campus. Add to that those horrible teachers.

But giving it a second thought...it wasn't that shitty though. Probably I'm just bad with transition phases, or reality is hitting me harder now that I've entered college. I still have my old buddies, and making new ones is really fun! Though I still think of stuff like "I want new college friends" or "I want to join orgs for friends," my blockmates were more than I could ask for. They're fun..and fun. And...ehe, ehe :")

Making a new year's resolutions list is bullshit. I never get to fulfill those either, so why spend time thinking about them. Well, of course that's just me. I'd rather do a life bucket list and get a journal. [Inspired by my mature friends :')] Idk what's the difference, but whatever.

Looking forward to a better year! Everyday is supposedly a new start, but, a new year is a much more special beginning, providing greater hopes for the coming days. Bring in the positive vibes!

Now that school is approaching, I better fix myself for the rest of the sem. But for now, I'm just gonna celebrate. Happy New Year!

Gutom na 'ko

Merry Christmas!

The refrigerator looked so lovely today. ♥

For the past few days I was thinking of Christmas wishes, but...they're more like to-do and not-to-do stuffs. I don't know if that makes me more mature, not thinking of material things...but whatever.

Merry Christmas!

A great end to the super stressful first quarter of da semesterr

Two days of just pure fun! Yayy.

My first UP lantern parade today! The parade itself was kind of not what I was expecting; I was a bit disappointed. Probably I expected too much, like, amazing floats and lights lights everywhere. But hey, t'was still fun! Mostly because of my awesome friends. No picture for now, no one has uploaded the pics yet.

1. Our one and only sky lantern who flew away to somewhere, someplace I hope that can fulfill my pretty shallow wish hihi.
2. Party crashing in Engg. Makes me want to shift out from CS.
3. Picnic mats! That looked like bathroom rags.
4. Johna!

And other stuff. Yayy, memorable lantern parade day!

Yesterday was equally fun! We went to SM Marikina and afterwards to QC Circle. Totally random places, but with awesome friends any place can get totally better.

1. SM Marikina's so near!
2. Flood scares, even though it wasn't raining

And in QC Circle! Circle of funnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn~

So excited for the ride; Sarah's and my face just shows...that.

That's me lying between life and death

Fountain!

I don't even want to talk about my near-death experience during that day. I was fighting hard to live okay. So much food was rising in my esophagus, luckily I managed to halt them. T'was just...horrifying.

HA GOOD THING I DIDN'T STUDY CHEM THAT MUCH. Or not. Pinapagaan ko lang loob ko.
Hahahahahahah pati Bio. KASI NAMAN. HALAMAN. DAHON LANG ANG DAMI PANG ALAM. Wala talagang kwenta 'pag minamarathon ang lessons.

So stressed right now. Chem's so difficult. I can't evennnn...ugh. I quit solving problems every 15 minutes to relax my brain, but I still can't solve almost half of them. I'm not even in the last topic yet - and that's the hardest part. At this rate, my brain won't function anymore when I resume studying again.

May Bio pa! I'm not sure if I still remember what I tried to learn early in the morning now that Chem is harrassing me. I stayed up 'til 7AM to finish all the lectures, because I started at 12. Okay my fault, but still....effort pa rin yun.

And I have a feeling that all of this effort will go to waste since tomorrow's exam will be so hard.

Moral of the story: Don't cram tons of lessons in one day.

In another story.....

I want a husky so bad. And a cat.

Just when I told twitter I'd be working on my chem....

I wish I woke up a bit early, like, 8AM early, so I can totally sing SUNDAY MORNING RAIN IS FALLINGGGGG. But no, I woke up at three and it wasn't the greatest feeling ever.

Last night, I suddenly missed high school, and it was the first time I meant it. The back lob, the railings, the caf, the field - all of those suddenly came flashing right before my eyes. Like I was gonna die right then and there. And even though I despised entering Pisay for the longest time, it still turned out to be one of the best four years of my life; meeting my most amazing friends and well, teachers.

High school is like extended grade school. We were still kids back then after all, although a bit older. Then the sudden transition to college felt like being pushed to the adult world, without any preparations, except the academic knowledge that will only prove useful for the first year...or not.

AND SIGHH. With all the work lined up for me today, I'll probably be laying my hands on them 'til tomorrow. Then I'll forget to actually celebrate my 17th year of existence. College, why can't you be a bit kinder.
