Weekend rants and inconsiderate people

Whew, another schoolweek has come and gone, which sadly left a lot to be desired..

The nerve of some people! Why is it that the ones who always get high grades and pass with FLYING colors are often the same ones who go around in circles after a test saying that "shit, ang hirap bumagsak ako sigurado (with emphasis on SIGURADO) ." or "ang baba ko, kelangan kong bumawi (when it turns out that that person got only 5 mistakes out of 80-100 items)" They get all worked up for nothing, and to add insult to injury, they're so fond of broadcasting to the world their "woes". Gimme a break! Kung bagsak kayo, pano pa yung mga ordinary people?!? Don't they realize na their pointless ranting wont make their grades go any higher and just make the other people around them feel bad, sad, or just downright irritated?!? Sheeesh!!

Thoughts while in the LRU..

This is just great.. Im sitting here in the most comfortable room in school with all the time and bandwidth that i could want and my mind pulls a blank. Just when i thought i could post something worthwhile. Oh well...

Life's been pretty weird these past few days. Its as if we never had the long weekend to rest after the prelims. I still wake up each morning feeling like a I've been sleeping under a ton of bricks. Well, i guess that rules out the initiations for this semester...

Istill can't make up my damn mind whether I want to join a frat or not. Sure, there is always the argument na "Its just less than a 2 weeks of hardship to endure, with a lifetime of benefits to enjoy. The question is, are those 10 days of hardship (and also probably escalating conflict with my folks) gonna be worth it? I,m having a hard time with my studies right now as it is. To dig myself in deeper... sigh...

But then again, most of the brods are my friends, and there's this part of me that wants to prove something.. that I can do it against all odds, that i can accomplish something that few others have done. Besides, its a fun frat. I like the people there. Ok yung samahan and everything. I really envy the camaraderie that they enjoy.. And lets not forget the freebies and the cool stuff that shows the world that "im one of them". (Hm.. parang yung commercial ng Gentext :P)

Since the summer, I've always felt a compulsion to go back and try again. Pero now that I'm at the edge, biglang nawala yung desire. Its as if i suddenly had a realization and my entire mindset just turned around..

I guess these are things that I'll have to consider at another time. For now, its back to the books!
