Week 5: Mosaic Fragments
My life has been slowly shattering into pieces.
Week 5 was one salad of events. Ups and downs, lefts and rights, news and olds, yeah...pretty much everything.
But no matter how roller-coaster-ish the ride was last week, at the end of it, I'll still be looking at the mirror and reflect.
The Aftermath (of the fugging Lasallian Week)Review: Lasallian week was SOOO disappointing. Randomly suspended classes, professors and students on disappearing acts, and uncool program schedules sending people from one side of the school premises' perimeter to the other.
This week: Surprise quizzes. Surprise assignments. Surprise projects. Surprise everything.
Me not amused. ~_~
I was really shocked as to how my week went. It really sounded as if I was absent for the whole week, while I only missed one (or zero) meeting.
Ok, I admit. I was at fault. I shouldn't have allowed the boring week to get into me too much. Besides, the week was supposed to be prep week for the midterms.
I know its quite a shame. I remember I promised myself to never get too cocky with my acads again, but here I am, picking up the "acad" pieces.
Sorry if I disappointed anyone. Yeah, sorry "me".
Girls and NumbersWould you believe? Personally, I wouldn't...but it happened. I was surprised myself.
Like any average college dudes, I have a lot of crushes at school. Considering my situation as an irregular student, being in different classes with different sets of faces isn't new.
I dunno what got over me, but for a sudden moment, I suddenly felt asking for my crushes' (yep, its not a typo. CRUSHES') numbers. Well, I guess to anyone, a guy asking for a classmate's number is normal, but that isn't something I usually do.
3 Classes. 3 Crushes. 3 Numbers. I cannot believe it all happened.
Ok, I know you're laughing..."Bren is such a trivial guy. lol"
But this is one large step for me. Somehow, I feel proud of myself for being able to do such "trivial move". I could already feel the confidence in my nerves, in my blood, and in my skin...
...but is it really confidence...or another mask I have to wear to hide my shadow-stained ego?
(And nope. I'm not 3-timing girls. It is SO against my rules. I've only texted one of them. haha. phailbren)
The Money-Body DilemmaOne of my focus this year is to concentrate on taking care and improving my body. I've started with my hair (which was slowly turning into my dream hair by the minute), and on recent weeks, I've begun doing workouts too. And I'm starting to take EXTRA care of my face as well.
It was then that I realized that my weekly savings are becoming less. Gym sessions cost me 50php a week, and I visit twice. Skin care products, while I only buy once a month, are still has a considerable share of expenses.
It wouldn't have been better if these are the only ones I need to commit my money into. I'm a student, who needs to eat and travel in order to get by the day. And some projects and assignments inevitably need some few bucks too.
170php (daily allowance) - 60php (travel expenses) - 20 (food) = 90php per day
I know its more than enough for an ordinary student. But I seriously want to improve my looks so much that I'm already considering on going to the gym daily and spend some money on more effective body care products.
And I wouldn't want to be a burden to my parents.
Heh...quite a dilemma here. I sure hope the 500php package monthly gym usage will be quite worth it. It'll be my only saving grace...to pick up the pieces of my youth...
Long post again huh? I bet you guys missed it. n_n
Midterms next week. Please pray for me and wish me luck.
