Shall I Or Shall I Not Hibernate?

Never have I been so stressed like what I am experiencing right now. It is March and it means for students like me that it is the month of giving-it-all-until-your-last-breath and also, judgment month. Phew.

I won’t deny that I am scared of the outcome of my grades. This semester is very bad for me. I have done okay in the previous semesters. Now, doom. Where’s my future?

Next week will be a good one. Good. An exam a day keeps the brain cells away. BTW, that was sarcasm. I have so many exams and a database to build and a play to manage and an ISA to make. We all do. I understand that no “good” student is idle on a month like this. We all are being tortured. But I like it. Not much.

That is why I’m asking myself, hibernate or not? From being active (i.e. blogging) in the online world of course. I will try to be less active in the next 14 days and try to drown myself in my lessons until I get high. I know Mr. Lappy will tempt me. And I know I will be tempted. Hope not.

So help me God. Cartesian or not.

Incompetent Enough

It often left me staring into nothingness when I think about my life after college. I have always dreamed of graduating on time which is proven to be a very difficult feat in the course I am taking. But sometimes, thinking about it gives me the feeling that I am not at all ready for the outside world. The feeling of incompetence strikes in.

Gone are the days when companies come grabbing students in our department for work even before they graduate. Gone is the golden age of this science. Gone are the days of the very good pioneer teacher. What awaits us who are left to crawl on what’s left of this sullen state?

I ask myself, am I good enough or deserving to be put on even the most minimal position in the industry? I couldn’t answer. I have yet to learn a year from now. It sucks when you hear that some mentors get in the way of students’ ambitions. It feels awful ending a subject learning almost nil from it. Most of all, it feels embarrassing being put side by side with students from other schools and they think you know a lot when in fact you don’t.

I hear a comment from another department’s teacher that we from our department are not on in the fight anymore. We are losers that sometimes win. Nevertheless, losers? I don’t call us that. I still have the superiority complex hanging on my sleeve; about to fall, of course.

So what do I do? What do we do? We try hard on our own. We seek what we cannot find in our own zones. We try hard to become visible. Make ourselves competent for short. The game is on. It will be for a lifetime. When your parents at school go neglect you, be your own parent. The challenge is on.

Missing A Friend I Felt I Just Lost

Before I start ranting about my personal life, I’d like to say yesterday was very fun, exciting and most of all, challenging. Finally, I have been given the chance to meet a lot of my Plurk friends and the rest of the Cebu Bloggers Society. For me, it was challenging, because I don’t usually meet new people when I am alone. But I just did. A milestone, phew! Just excuse me for the silence. I am loud really, but not on the first few times.

And so, after the meeting, it is then when I thought about a very close friend who recently have not been in good terms with me and some of my other friends because of an unknown killer issue which we really can’t point out. *zombies* It is my habit to share everything that happened, is happening or will happen to me to this close friend. But because of the recent incident, I felt that all my sharings are stuck up within me (though I tried to relate it to others, but they can’t relate). I know she is not the culprit of the gaddamit “issue” but she sort of sided to the culprit hence I felt betrayed (where it usually leads to disappointment). I kept on denying that I miss her company as didz kept on asking me about it. But I really do. I could not talk about Heroes to other people but this friend. I could not talk about my pets, the movies I watched, my new friends, my prospects, my stalkers *evil grin* and everything to others except this friend who shows great appreciation on all that I have to say. But as the saying goes, “this too shall pass”, we will be back to normal soon. Except for the culprit who has issues. C’mon, stop copying from quotation websites. Kidding!

And while I am writing this, a dreaded oral exam is looming. Wish me luck so I would not go blank in front of the teacher. Damn you Descartes, Ayer, Gaddamer, Kant and all of you philosophers, just for today.
