schedule, schedule

kagabi ko lang na-realize na ganito pala ang sched ko this week, until next week:

monday: class
wednesday: 2 classes
friday: class (though make-up lang ito)
saturday: whole-day new student orientation and prayer meeting
sunday: FRM homecoming
next monday: group meeting (on a holiday!)
next wednesday: 2 classes
next friday: class (make-up ulit)

oo nga pala, full-time pa rin akong nagtatrabaho.

grabe, para akong nagsaksak ng sarili. parang lang naman. ; )

the nerd goes back to her comfort zone : )

wow, it's been over two months since i last posted here!

since then, nakaakyat na ako ng mt. sembrano, at nakapunta na ng mt. pinatubo. nagkita-kita na ulit kami ng embryo, at ng thesis mates ko. at nag-aaral na ako ulit. : )

i started my MBA in ateneo rockwell last july 14. i'm taking 3 subjects this trisem - business communication, managerial statistics and applied math. so far, so good. i got home from buscom at past 11, since the class is from 6 to 9. pero okay lang.

we had a presentation last night, and a really exhilarating feeling came over me right after we finished. i don't know, i guess it's just the rush that comes after you've done something well. it's been three years since i was last in school, and there's nothing like compliments from the professor to make you feel that it's been worth the effort. plus, since our group is done, petiks muna kami next meeting. wahaha!

getting back to school is probably the biggest decision i made for myself recently (this, and asking for a lateral transfer at work a little over a year ago). this means that i will be broke and harrassed for probably the next three years. my practically non-existent social life will plummet to the darkest depths of nothingness (if that is even possible). i expect that at some points, i will regret this. after all, who wants to be bogged down with projects and papers? i know all these, but getting back to school feels right to me now.

what better timing could i ask for? i'm young and single. i still have the eager beaver spirit of my high school years. my work and my friends' experiences in their jobs make the theories real to me. i believe that i am still a sponge. i crave for experiences that will add to my knowledge, challenge my beliefs, and widen my perspective.

there, i have just recounted to myself why i am doing this. gives me something to go back to when stat and math start to get the better of me. : )

good morning, world! it's a manic monday!

i woke way ahead of my phone's alarm clock. read a text message, & couldn't get back to sleep anymore. okay lang din, monday naman. sa hirap sumakay, dapat maaga ako. better yet, dapat makasabay ako sa service nina mommy. mukhang aabot naman ako. hehe. : )

tuesday morning last week, mahirap sumakay. well, what else would i expect (wala kasing terminal dito sa bundok namin)?! pero sinwerte ako kasi nakasakay ako ng van, kahit isa na lang ang bakante.

akala ko, okay na (kahit 7 na, at 8:30 ang pasok ko). after all, nakasakay na ako. no small feat, if you're coming from cavite & going to manila. but no...

kalalabas pa lang ng van ng subdivision, iba na ang dinaanan ng driver. may banggaan daw kasi dun sa usual na daanan. (i said to myself, sana hindi ako ma-late...)

nag-gasolina si manong. (certified commuters lang ang makakaintindi kung gaano ka-bad trip ang driver na naggagasolina during rush hour.)

lumipat si manong sa kabilang gasolinahan para magpahangin ng gulong. (waaaaah!)

at dumaan pa kami sa vulcanizing shop! panalo!

i swear, kung dumaan pa si manong sa drive thru at bumili ng agahan, babatuhin ko siya ng barya.
or maybe not. after all, 2-3 times a week din akong sumasakay sa van nila lately. hehe.

pero in fairness, hindi ako na-late. ; )

it's a manic monday! gising naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! : )
