quickie

i have always found breaks (sem, xmas and summer) a reason for delaying, postponing or even ignoring things, i.e, becoming irresponsible (although of course an improper justification for such). just like how i've been in the recently concluded iisdc. too bad it was set during my last college sem break, which means all if not most of the work had to be done within the break. i was only thankful that a friend did the job for me. otherwise, things would've screwed up and i wouldve been the one to blame. oh well at least it's done now. and it's now time for ama work. we've been "delaying" things (yes, we. i'm not alone in this one.) due to some non-existent reasons. actually they do. hmm... there are still 3 ama events to come which means 3 more events to market for. that alongside the already stressful last sem in my life. that should make things interesting for me this time. but maybe it can be made even more interesting if my random number slaps me with some sucky teachers and a sucky schedule tomorrow.

yep. reg is back. for the last time. tomorrow. and it seems to be promising a jaded sem. 3 finance subjects backed by some start-up business which in the end might be (although highly unlikely; its only in my mind) faked. 1st sem was the worst. i couldnt have emphasized it more. lowest qpi ever, which stands as the sole determinant of a good or bad sem. at least for me. yet my cumulative, still acceptable. but is on the verge of crossing the line- from acceptable to unacceptable). now im pressured to bring back my old nerdy lifestyle in exchange of better grades. having said that, i am reminded of the question my friends and i have once encountered: why the drive to get such high grades when even failing people (or the failures) are happy with their lives? it's as if our level of happiness is somehow latched on to the different "level" of grades we get. thus, the former depending on the latter.

oh well.
