I really would like to post something philosophical in nature to describe the new year. But alas, I can’t think of anything good to write. So here I am with a year-end review meme.

(more…)

In my weird (borderline obsessive) fixation on my (hopefully near) graduation, I realized this is going to be the last Christmas season I’ll have before I finish my degree. So in true student spirit, or at least mine, I end up scouring any free time I have for studying.

It’s a good thing that at least children will always be excited during this time of year. I guess the wonders of Christmas are demystified once you hit 12… and then crushed at 18. After all, gifts and aguinaldo depreciate exponentially with age and you have to make sure you’re not a godparent as well. Decorations, food and gifts always demand time, energy and money and traffic is just horrible anywhere. And if you are an errand runner or kitchen personnel like the older kids, it would be forever before you have any lounging time to spend on books and in my case: soldering materials, readings and thesis.

Although, I have been wishing to commemorate this last-Christmas-season-before-graduation with something. Right now, all I can do is catch up on the latest episodes of House and some movies I have been dying to see. Regular sleep is also on top of my list too. Once January starts, who knows how many hours of sleep I can manage.

Oh well, this little pleasures should do as of the moment. Besides, I could easily do other exciting things AFTER I graduate  (I just hope I have my license by then ). Cheesy as it sounds, as long as you have family, friends and a loved one to share it with, Christmas is complete. Hopefully, other people would be just as content.

Merry Christmas to everyone!  

A blogging hiatus for almost two months is not a good sign, even for an occasional blogger like me.

Of course like the others, neglecting this blog has never been intentional.  Life just always get in the way of comforting leisure.  Which has been the occurring trend nowadays…

No, I am not here to rant about how pathetic dorm life is with a non-existent internet connection or tons of academic work that seems to be piling up. Heck, I don’t even want to dive into the details of my poor time management skills down to the ‘reserved’ planner which I might be getting really late (with added charge to boot). Because, sometimes I really think that needless ranting is unfair to those who are going through much harder sh*t. Not to mention the complete waste of  time, and internet bandwidth.

I just want to reaffirm my existence here in cyberspace. And actually do something unrelated to what I usually do.
