Summer Starts Today

Freedom to the college kids, not all though. I am fortunate enough to start my summer vacation today. It still comes with a price, a late long studying for one last final exam and handing in a final project on a CD. Two more classes and I am then free to relax. Not lazy in every way, shape, and form though, because I do work and I need to work to earn a living. That’s how life rolls for me and the Earth continues to rotate. Have you ever wondered what it would be like if the Earth swiveled as well?

I tend to forget many things that I want to write, and it’s a little agitating to know that I cannot remember a minute detail.

I have been a student for way too long. I’m actually enjoying my life as a student. I think it would be a lot easier and grander in my scheme of life if I only had to work, even if it’s 40 hours a week. My life at work is kept at work, not saying that I wouldn’t make it personal, but more importantly, I won’t be taking things home to do homework (unless it’s that kind of job obviously). So, when I’m home, I don’t have much stress about work. I can enjoy my time at home, relax or do my own thing. I could even finish another RPG game. With school, it’s different. I play, but in the end, I have to spend hours upon hours studying or doing homework or projects or preparing for exams. I have so many RPG games, but I’ve only manage to finish one… Final Fantasy 9. It had to be the most linear Final Fantasy game that I’ve played (anything from 7 on, except 11).

Summer, I have a goal of finishing an RPG game, build at least one of my Gundam Model, and finish a jigsaw puzzle. This is nothing than simple tasks for me (except for the RPG game). Sitting down for 2 hours and finishing a 1000 pieces puzzle is nothing short of a fun time for me. I think I might start it after publishing this entry. Class starts in a little less than 4 hours, I should be able to finish at least 1 puzzle since I’m dead tired from staying up studying.

Grades this semester seems to be 3 Bs and 2 As. I am proud of myself, and for some reason I do better when I have work incorporated in my school life. I will say a silent gratitude to my fellow co-workers and boss for hiring me ^_^ “Thank you!”

I knew I would stay up for my final day of exam, because I had to write my Final Essay and do some little graphic things for my other class project. I’m starting to ramble on. I’ll leave this as it is. Will update later down the road.

God bless all of you ^_^

Swimming Upstream

This week and next week will be all about swimming against everything within me.

The wanting:

• to sleep
• to relax
• to let everything I’ve built fall
• to give in to the cry of my bod

As the semester comes to an end, the pressure to keep the grades up is heavier. Everything I’ve worked throughout the semester will crumble in the face of the final exam week. Everything I’ve kept, all classes being A’s, I fear for it to drop to B’s. The grade’s not bad, and to be honest, B’s are good for me, but they are a disappointment if all school semester, I’ve kept my grades A’s and in the end, they fall into a B and my GPA (Grade Point Average) just crumble in a blink of a week.

Thanks for reading, I’ve not been able to keep up with my regular reading, except for one. I think I’ve been slacking, but once school’s over and summer comes, I’ll be back to reading and writing again. Until then, I will be busy not writing or reading anything that’s not school related.

May is my freedom month, May is when I break free from the stress that bogs me down. May I have a cup of tea? >_< It means nothing, I just need to use May as something else than just a noun =P

Have a great end of April everyone. Take care and God bless!

Lack of Writing

I am very disappointed in myself for the numbers I’ve posted in the past couple of months. As a writer, I believe it is important to write as often as possible, even if it’s about a random story that means nothing to anyone. My lack of writing isn’t anything new if you’ve kept up with any of my previous blogs. I tend to drift off into an abyss for a period of time, and then continue to write as though nothing ever happened, or at some point, I do apologize for it. Honestly, I don’t think I have enough avid readers for me to apologize to, and for those of you who really do keep up with my writings, I thank you Oh! So much for doing so. As a writer, I have no good excuse to state why I’m this way.

College is coming to an end. 3 more short weeks, and though it’s short, it’s going to be the longest 3 weeks of the year for me, I can almost guarantee that. Well, probably comparable to the next semester of school I would say. Projects after projects have been due each week, not giving me much time to break. In this last 3 weeks of classes, it’s going to be more hectic than the last 3 weeks. In 11 days time, it will have been a year since my mom passed away. I’m planning on going back on the 12th – 13th to visit her. I should have visited her more often throughout the year, but mentally, I don’t think it would have been easy. It never was, and is still difficult. Just the thought of my mom sends me into depress mode in a blink of an eye. The only time I’m fine is when I’m talking about happy memories of her, but when I’m alone, I don’t think that’s happening any time soon.

So, there you have it, to sum it up, I’m a little depressed and stressed at the fact that exams are around the corner.

On a better note, I enjoy my new work and I find it refreshing to be around different people at times. Different people as in not by my lonely self. 8 hours for working on my project must have something to do with why I’m a little brain dead at the moment. Nothing a good dinner won’t fix up ^_^

Current Game: World of Warcraft
Class: Mage
Faction: Alliance

*I can’t wait till StarCraft II comes out. It’ll be my next StarCraft… wait, it is the next StarCraft >_<

April Fool Jokes

Out of all the April Fool jokes I’ve seen online, I have to say Google has my vote for being the best of all I’ve seen. WoW is definitely not as good as when Burning Crusades was coming out, they definitely had people going on and one about their wisp character, lol.

Any good story that got to you? I didn’t get fooled this year, which says a lot about the fooling this year, but I fooled a handful of people with Google’s fool ^_^ Happy me.
