(no subject)
Sep. 1st, 2006 03:23 pmSo an actual post. with paragraphs. i'm gonna make a photopost probably tomorrow. or the next day. depending on whether or not i can upload all the pictures. and resize them as well. i realize that i made two posts between then and now, a pluto one (who didn't??) and a ZOMG shingo/koyuki! one but i swear that i HAD to.
sort of.
anyway, the term's over and i can't say that I won't miss it. It was fun and challenging. I kicked some of it's ass and some of it kicked a whole lot of mine. Writing that feels so much sweeter after receiving my course cards. -_- I was busy most of time and due to some creative manhandling of my schedule, will continue to be busy for the rest of my life at university. I will admit that I will miss the nights spent on those damn lab reports. Nights and DAYS. gathering the data and researching on related topics just to put together 15 to 20 odd pages of data analysis was really fun. after i submitted them anyway. making them was very very tough. but according to my profs, my lab reports are very well-written and beautiful. yes, beautiful. i'm going to brag about that to my children. i make excel charts beautiful. coffeebased=dork LOL i really did my best with most of my classes, not to mention totally kicked much ass at work. so i guess i don't feel so bad about that one failing grade that i got in orgchem2.
yeah. FAILED. sigh. after all that work in that damn subject. i really killed myself over it so i have no real regrets. my grade in the final exam was pretty good too, even though everyone else had such a hard time with it. jm and twin were pretty much as nettled by it as i was, considering that they took so much time out to help me learn a lot of the stuff. anyway, i have to get that one grade back and get a damn good score. like brilliant. because i'm in third year and all the old excuses won't work anymore. people in third year ought to be more professional. i love my ecology teacher for saying that again and again. she's right. i'm a biology major. last term was pretty much a deciding one for me. my priorities have been effectively welded into place. being alone a lot helped.
heh. :)
i've been going on a lot of walks lately. little ones around a few block in the central business district and long ones (like last tuesday, i walked from taft to fort bonifacio) and i've found that they're excellent ways to focus. like physical and emotional training. a friend of mine calls it hope's SAMURAI training hour! and it's true. i feel like my soul's getting a keen edge. zen walking. whee! it makes it easier to remain calm in the face of adversity or in my case, annoying things. distance is a good thing.
i'm going to put those pictures up tomorrow.
and i put out a new zine, simply titled, 'a love story'. i'm gonna be giving some people copies. it's too damn hard to make a lot. -_- i knew i should've stuck with uniform pages. or i'm just going to upload it somewhere and whoever's interested can browse through it. writing's much easier now.
and on a happier and less think-y note: PHWOAR DREAM LIVE 3!!! Thank you BUNBUN
