Running on tight schedule....

I am so proud of myself for being extremely productive this weekend! Despite of having no sleep at all (I am running on 5 hours of sleep right now), I still managed to finish an 18-topic ALEKS homework in 5 hours. THAT'S IN FREAKING RECORD TIME!!! HOLLA! Anyway, I am just taking a short break right now because I have to do more studying for the first Chemistry quiz tomorrow. There is not reason for me not to pass it with flying colors. So.... Good luck to me!

See you soon, blog! =)

So another chance I attempted to take failed yesterday... It wasn't that much of a blow to the head, but it was definitely something I lost sleep on. I just thought I should say something that has been bothering me. Saying it out loud helped. IT REALLY HELPED. Now, I don't have to go on wondering what if I didn't say what I wanted to say? Would it bother me for a long time? Probably. However, by blurting out what was on my head made things a little awkward for me. I know myself, therefore I also know that things won't be the same again between me and that person I am talking about right now. Anyway, I won't elaborate further about this matter. It's making me sad and pissed off at the same time.

Dot... Dot... Dot....

I've been listening to Jason Mraz all day while studying. I really love his voice and how it relaxes me on a day like this. Today was actually pretty tiring for me. I had to wake up early to go home to get some things that I forgot to take with me before coming back here at JST. When I got back home this morning my mom was still there. I asked her why was she still at home. Immediately I realized that she was sick. She had a high blood pressure attack because of what happened the day before yesterday. I really don't know why, but my sister just always manages to make our mother cry. I am not saying I am the perfect daughter, but for every time that mom gets mad, it is usually because of her. I am saddened at how much my sister changed since we started living here in America. The influence of other people on her was just so strong that the change was unbearable. She is really moody, angry, and unsatisfied with what she has. She wants... She needs.... She has to get.... EVERYTHING that her friends have. Again, I am not saying I am perfect and that I was never unsatisfied about the things I have and lack. But to the point that I would make my mom cry because of it... NEVER. And it is because I do not like hearing my mother say that she'd be dead before I become a doctor. I know this is a long time, but I don't want my mom to "go" in ten years. I want my mom and my dad to see what I worked hard for. I want them to be there when I finally achieved what I dreamed of having because they inspired me through it all. I am not doing all of this hard work in school for myself only. But I am doing this for them. I owe it to my parents for everything that they have sacrificed for me. For twenty years, they supported me and never let me go astray. MOMMY and DADDY... Mahal ko po kayo. Mahal na mahal. And because I love both of you so much, I will stay away from things that will pull me to the wrong side of the road. =)


GRANADA UPDATE:

My study abroad application is going smooth so far. I only need to write two essays, meet with an adviser, and process my Visa for Spain. I am so excited to go! Right now I am taking SPAN 102 and I must say that I am struggling a bit although not really. I guess I just have to get into my groove. AND I HAVE TO DO THAT SOON.

Anyway.... Gotta workout at 6AM tomorrow. Bye bye!
