I'm off to never never land

Second week of school. We're still pretty much adjusting and unstable, and I'm not sure of what to do with my life, or more specifically, with all this free time. For the first time in the four years of my studying, my schedule is riddled with holes, my subjects are scattered all around the time table, and I only have one class to go to on Tuesdays.
Although I'm sure that the idleness is only temporary (since school will always find a way to eat time), it's a little weird to know that you actually have a lot of time to kill on a school day, and that you're going home with the sun still scorching hot above you and with nothing particularly important to do.
My pet society pet loves all this, though. I'm opening mystery boxes on a daily basis, my garden is alive, and I have been giving hugs regularly to my pet friends. :)

rainy june
It's only a matter of days before school starts and I'm pretty much satisfied. I did, after all, get the extra week of summer vacation that I had been hoping badly for, and it really made a huge difference. That sluggish feeling I got from pretending to be an employee is finally gotten over with, I have my siestas back, and I'm almost done crossing things off my summer to-do list.
I also love how the weather has changed drastically over the few weeks. Now it's perfectly chilly at night, it's not-so-hot anymore during the day, and everything just seems to fall right into place.
Perfect. This is turning out to be the best summer ever, regardless of the obvious lack of swimming pools and tv marathons. ♥

getting back to civilization
I'm now (hopefully) done with school, and after regaining all those lost hours of sleep, I am now ready to proceed with my getting-back-to-civilization plan. I don't want to call it my summer to-do list since I have barely a week to finish it all. After that I'm off to Batangas to feed the rest of my summer to community pharmacy practice (Whee).
1. Update all my online profiles
- Frankly, I really don't care anymore if my friendster account goes unopened for the rest of the year. The only reason I still bother is the thought that maybe my highschool friends still visit my page, curious to know what I've been up to.
2. Create a facebook account so I can start playing pet society
- That game is pretty addictive. Facebook is not that bad, either.
3. Catch up on blogging
- I haven't been blogging as much as I wanted to before, so now I'm hoping to make up for it.
4. Watch t.v.
- because I haven't regularly watched a show in months!
5. Sort computer files
- Somehow, most of my computer files for this semester are not arranged in folders according to subject. They're scattered in my desktop.
6. Stow away all school- related things
- I've been putting off this one because there is still no removals list for phch128, so nothing is yet final.
7. Rockband!
- My cousins are staying here until easter, and so the love for rock returns.
8. Pay my petting tax to the bunny
- Apparently, I haven't been giving much attention to the king of the house. He's the one who stayed up with me throughout the storm of exams (hence the title study buddy), so I really do have a debt to pay.
9. Catch up on highschool people
- I miss you f5g!
So that's basically all. It's a weird feeling to know that these things are on a deadline, since I don't usually set deadlines for things I otherwise call work. I really hope I can get all these done! 0 comment(s)

It's a long weekend. These days feel like a much- needed breath of fresh air, since my weekends are often indistinguishable from the rest of the week. Normally, my saturdays are spent at school and sundays are consumed by deadlines and to-do lists; now, I have entirely two and a half days to spend. It doesn't seem like much but for people like me, it is very relieving and rare to find adequate time for schoolwork and even small leisurely things.
Speaking of leisure, I have lately been restricting my internet- surfing to make time for other priorities. The idea of keeping away from the inescapable vortex of blogs and networking sites seemed unheard of at first; but I remember that I have successfully given up the television in the past, and that has convinced me to believe in the magic of willpower. Now, I can proudly say that I have gotten used to a maximum of 4 hours a week of unnecessary internet time (inclusive of online chatting!). I know, I really should have a monument made soon for all this sacrifice. Haha. Seriously though, this recent act has been making me feel like I am more in-control of my time, and that can't be bad, right? So unless things change and I suddenly become in dire need of people, I am sticking to my four hours hopefully until summer vacation. It's kind of pathetic if you think about it in a one-step-closer-to-being-a-lonely-isolated-hag kind of way, but otherwise I guess it's alright. :)
It's been pretty easy so far, actually. Sure, it hurts my ego to find that booni has more friends than I do (no really, check out his bunspace), but then again my life is way way more complicated than his. :D

new year, new look
Someone decided to finally change this blog's layout.
I like the gray. I've been stuck with all- white for so long that my eyes had to take some time to adjust to the darker background. Still, it's pretty much the same colors, same theme. Maybe someday I'll come up with something a little bit more elaborate, but for now this will do.
The banner is taken from Enter Sandman by Metallica and is a result of a christmas vacation that centered on playing Rockband with my cousins.
Stories to be posted soon. :) 2 comment(s)
