Zombie Workload

I've been meaning to do one of these posts but I've been really lazy to do so. I was inspired by Malin's workload post, so it got me cracking.

Ok, here goes.

So this crate full of cases are only for one class, which is Constitution 1. In this class, we use three thick books about the Philippine Constitution (two of which are not with me at the moment, they are with my friend), plus the shitload of cases you see in the photo above. There is another pile that is waiting to be read, which I forgot to include in the crate because they are on my table. Aside from the books and the cases, my prof also assigns some long, supplemental readings if he feels like it. Funnily enough, despite the deathly workload, this is my favourite subject so far.

This next crate contains the other cases and readings for my other classes: Persons and Family Law, Philosophy of Law, Criminal Law 1, Legal Profession, Legal Research and Statutory Construction. Aside from these readings, there are also books for the classes mentioned above.

Here are my books. As I've said, the two books for Constitution 1 are with my friend. Two other books were borrowed by my friend too - my books for Legal Research and Statutory Construction. Two other books are not in the photo too. They were in my bag, and I forgot to bring them out when I took pics. I was lazy to retake, so yeah. The total number of books is... *drumroll please* 11. Woohoo.

There you go, the two already full crates. I need to get another crate, there are more (and I mean a loooot more) cases and readings coming my way. Still a month to go before my final exams, and then it's finally semestral break! Wooooo! I can do this!

It didn't occur to me that of all the things I hate the most, it's abandonment and disconnection.

But that's life. It's tough, we all gotta deal with it.

bienvenido a facultad de derecho

I start law school on Monday already, 8th June. I'm so scared :S

And to welcome me, this is what I have to read:

That's like 500+ cases to study, memorize and analyze. And this is only for the week-long Introduction to Law course. *sigh* I was asking for a life. I wasn't asking to be killed. :(

As my fb status says... I have only a little less than two days before I plunge into the deathbed that is law school. I'm really going to miss my lazy, happy-go-lucky-without-a-care-in-the-world life...

Argh

It's been a long time since I had a proper rant, and I usually keep these things to myself but this time it just ticked me off so bad.

It really really really REALLY pisses me off to see/hear/read about 'fans' claiming or pretending to be PROPER fans. They think they know a lot about the club, about the players, how they play, etc. etc. But no, they don't! They even have the nerve to call the boys THEIR boys... Right. They don't even know who's who in the effing team, FFS. They don't even know the match scheds! Is that a proper fan? Is that even a fan at all?!

I know I haven't been supporting Valencia for so long but dammit, I know so much about them, more than these 'fans' know. I don't just fangirl over the boys, I fangirl over their skillz and their abilities and I do not fangirl over individual players. I do have my favorites of course, but I support and fangirl over the whole effing team. No matter how much they break my heart at times, I still stick by them and love them with all my heart. I support the team not only because they're pretty (they are, too much, but that's just an added bonus lol), but because they're Valencia and they're bloody amazing.

Also, it doesn't piss me off so much if it was someone I didn't know. I'd just ignore them. But this particular one I do know, and it makes my blood boil so much!

Arrrrghhhh I'm going to rip my hair out if I hear one more thing from these people.

Ok, rant over.

I push myself too hard.

I fail at finishing all the entries about my trip. I promise I'll finish it, maybe by the end of the week. I hope. Everything's just so topsy turvy in my world lately, I can't even be online that much anymore! Boo. I just need to blog about the recent things that have been happening.

Uni.
So, I went back to uni already last Wednesday. It was horrible. I had to pay a fine for late enrollment, because I was supposed to pay Tuesday but forgot the check at home. Then I realized that I didn't have any cash with me, so I told the cashier that I'd go back. I went to the ATM machines and when I pulled out my wallet I realized that I didn't have my ATM card with me too. I was panicking, I was already 30 mins late for class and I still haven't paid my tuition fees. I was running around the campus and it was so hot, I was so tired already! So I texted my brother to ask if he had extra cash with him, and he did, thank God. But I had to run to the other side of the campus where his class was to get him. More running, and then finally got the cash, ran back to the cashier to pay. I ran to class after, 45 mins late, only to find out that I was in the wrong room! Turned out that whoever did my schedule printed out the wrong room assignment. So it took me another 15 mins to find my room, and when I did, I was an hour late already. I had no clue what the prof was talking about and shizz. Yeah, that was a great first day back.

The next few days at uni were okay, but I bombed the first quiz we had. Lol. I always do that at the start of the semester. I never know how to study for a quiz/exam (if I even study hahaha) until I know what type of tests the prof gives out.

Ballet.
So, after two months of not training, I went back to ballet. And man it was so hard to get back. I've never really stopped dancing for that long, not even during the times when I was out injured, because during those times I still trained. Yeah I know, I don't listen to my physio and I'll be paying for it in the future. *shrugs* I love dancing, no one can stop me.

And because of the long time of not training, I ended up so frustrated at myself because I couldn't do the usual stuff I do. My muscle resistance and endurance are both way off, I couldn't last through the exercises. And I couldn't do my turns! Turns are actually my forte. Whenever I dance, especially when I do all those turning steps and spins (pirouettes, fouettes, chainees, etc.) and other challenging steps, there is this certain feeling that I get. I can't explain it, but it's such a beautiful feeling.

Given that, I guess you could imagine and understand the frustration I've been feeling. I badly wanted to get back in shape and when I want something, I do everything to get/achieve it. Which is bad for me, really. And with dancing, just like any other sport, pushing yourself too hard would damage the muscles. And that's what I got for pushing myself too hard. I kept working so hard on the exercises, doing them over and over again just so I can improve fast. Again, I didn't listen, and now I've got recurrent leg cramps, several muscle strains all over, my bad (left) ankle is sore again, and my right ankle is hurting too. Yay me.

Work.
Yes, I'm working this summer again. I cracked, even if I said I didn't want to work any more, and despite the fact that I didn't get paid last summer. I just can't keep myself away from my beloved ballet students. But I took a part-time shift this time, only working on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 1-6pm with a 30min break. Its tiring, but better than the 8 hour shift I used to have. And also I get to rest because sometimes my task is to only operate the music and take the attendance. Lol.

Life in general.
Too much stuff going wrong. Idek if I'm going to be paid at work. Oh please let them pay me, I hope they don't do a Valencia on me. Also, I'm kind of in a small life crisis right now. I've planned everything out but now I feel kind of lost, its as if I don't really want all this anymore. And ugh, just... So much more going wrong.

So there, that's basically what's happening to my life lately. Not really interesting. Haha. I really need to get out of this rock that I've been living in and see my friends. I've been putting them off lately, must really see them.

First things first

I am back from my holiday! :) I will blog about my trip in the following days or so, I am still busy atm trying to accomplish the stuff on my to do list that I ignored before leaving. :p

Anyway, this is late as most people already know about this, but still! :D




I just screencapped the important parts of the webpage lol :) I haven't properly celebrated yet! I wonder if I should throw a party. I haven't thrown my grad party yet anyway. Yeah, maybe I'll do that. I'll see.

The only thing that sucks is that I still have to take additional units for English. I don't know why all law schools require 18 units! My uni (Ateneo de Manila University) only requires every student to take 12 units. We have to catch up on additional units for law school. Booo. Boooooo. I start with uni again on April 15th. There goes my summer vacation.

Anyway, this was what I really wanted, and this is such an accomplishment and dream come true for me! Woohoooo! :)
