Hello :) Thought of making a post of some things I’m currently up to.

Hear me out; don’t hear me out. I’m still here to talk about it.

Doing it in bulleted style!

• I just got myself enrolled yesterday. I’m now a 4th year Physical Therapy student.

I know what you’re thinking, not much of a big deal. But it is a big deal. For me, that is. Getting this far? I’d say it’s more of an over-achievement than meeting a goal. Of course, for everyone in college or university it’s pretty much one big goal to finish school. But the way to get there? I’d say every bit of it is an achievement. 

I’m proud of myself. Not to sound cocky but I just realized now that I survived 3rd year (aka toxic year) without a single book. Well a hard felt book. I got by with 2 e-books. But still, it’s an achievement. Right? Plus no remedials. No summer class. No failing grades on finished subjects (Though I have to work hard on the remaining ones ‘cause I’m flunking).

Best thing of it all is that I’m glad I didn’t give up right in the middle of it. Remember my old post? I was on the verge of quitting ‘cause I didn’t feel like myself anymore. I felt more of a robot, programmed to do the same things every single day. Feeling the same dreadful feelings every single day (This is a paradox. Robots can’t feel. Right?). I hated it. I remembered thinking that I might go crazy if I ever had to do the same old things for another week. That was probably stress talking. I had to keep myself sane for at least a few more months. But I’m glad I decided to talk to my family. They really helped. And since then I became even more religious. Not that I wasn’t before I went nuts. My mom would often ask me if whether I prayed enough. I did. Every single night. But then, praying felt more of an obligation without sincerity. Now I do it out of love and gratitude. 

So in short, I’m glad I made it this far. I thank the Lord for bringing me this far. And this year I’ll try even harder to stay in the game. Wish me luck! 

• There’s a guy I apparently like that keeps appearing on my facebook news feed. He’s not even my friend. I’m chickening out. I flipped a coin to see if I should try to be-friend him (I wanted to believe that it was the Universe’s way to choose for me). The coin said I should (Rather, the Universe said I should). And so yeah. I chickened out. Now his face is on my news feed. Great. Is this Universe talking? What do you think? 

• Summer’s almost over and I still feel like I didn’t do enough to enjoy it. I’m slightly frustrated that most of my plans didn’t work out this summer. Oh well. There’s next summer. Oh wait. I don’t have a summer vacation next year ‘cause apparently, I’ll be an intern by then. Plus my cousins are about to leave so that just leaves me for the next remaining weeks before school starts. GREEEEAAAAAT. Summer 2012 - not a good one. 

• Random: I just found out that my classmate’s older brother is having a relationship with my cousin’s niece. Distant…and shallow, I know. But I find this pretty cool. Such a small world since my cousin and her niece are from Cebu yet my classmate and his brother are from Bacolod but they’re currently residing here in Manila during school time. And I find it even cooler that I see them all in one picture. Small, small world indeed. 

Alright that’s pretty much it. Random, weird, shallow. Well you read it this far, right? Will be blogging again soon :) Take care!
