tired
hotSince I don't have classes on Wednesdays, I decided I might as well do something productive like reviving this half-dead blog. Especially now that a lot of stuff is going on in my life, it's best to take a breather for a while and just take my mind off things. Last night, I had a hard time sleeping. I think I spent the majority of my time thinking about *insert person's name*. Gah. I'm so pathetic. XD
And then there's this thing... I haven't told my parents about it yet but... I'm starting to think that I'm not cut out for the course I've chosen. It's not a matter of lack of determination or resentment on my part. No... it's more like, when you just wake up one day and begin to ask yourself: "What if?" What if somewhere in this world, there's another job, a perfect job for me, just waiting to be discovered? What if I'd be happier choosing to do what I want in life instead of what others want me to pursue? What if the path I'm taking right now would only lead me to loneliness and regret? Blame it on my philosophy class or the various friends I have who switched schools in order to chase after their dreams, but for a while, I've started thinking about the future in a different way. Is it wrong to think like this, now that it's a little too late for me to back out?
restlessWhy do I feel like today's my birthday? Is it because of the amount of people who are here today? Hm, that must be it. Right now, the house is full of guests as far as the eye can see. Or maybe I'm just exaggerating. Whatever. Somehow, I feel kind of restless and sad, like I can't quite fathom the idea of turning 17 tomorrow. For me, some of the best experiences in my life happened when I turned 16, which is why I am somewhat hesitant to take this next big step. It's like, being 17 means more responsibilities, burdens, tough choices, etc. And this feeling... this feeling of getting older, I hate it. I guess, in my heart, I will always be that kid who views life as one big struggle against maturity. Uh, am I making any sense? XD
dorkyJust got back from my cousin's place the other day, where I spent the weekend being the absolute bum that I am. I'm a bit psyched for my upcoming painting lessons (finally, I can do something productive!) since the past few days basically consisted of nothing but DVD marathons, fandom rants and my newly-discovered hobby, icon-making. Seriously, I've just found out the wonders of Photoshop and ever since then, I've been making icons like crazy. Lol. I'm such a hopeless case. XD
On a side note, I haven't seen The Other Boleyn Girl yet, although I distinctly remember getting excited when I saw the movie poster a few weeks ago with Aris. Damn it, I want to see that film NOW.
highFinals had just ended yesterday and I'm spending my first day of summer vacation tied to a sickbed with a runny nose and a bad case of flu. Just when I finally had the time to go mall hopping or whatever else it is that teenagers like me do during their free time... How great. My day just couldn't get any better.
But sickness aside, I'm feeling quite high today. After all, there's no more school! No more waking up early, no more grumpy teachers with a bad case of PMS and no more cramming and studying for exams! Quite a feeling, eh? In fact, I half-woke up this morning expecting to be late for school again, not to mention thinking that my friends and teachers are going to have a field day because of my tardiness, but I somehow managed to sleep again and wake up sometime around noon. And now I can't help thinking about this dream I had last night. It was very weird... and I'm surprised I managed to remember it at all. Seriously, what is it with me and dreams?
Anyway, I miss my friends (even though I just saw them yesterday). Two of them are still at war with each other and I'm kinda hoping that they resolve their problems soon before one of them migrates to another country at the end of this month... And where would I go this summer, I wonder? Haven't really made plans yet with anyone, but I'm thinking road trip, Laguna, Bora, some other isolated beach and well, anywhere but the province...
Yes, I'm aware that I'm once again rambling. *sigh* Seriously, I need to get a life. XD
