Should I Do or Should I Not

I've been postponing this assignment for as long as I can remember and now that the due date is coming up, I just had to open it up. I've always been fond of the thought of being in front of a camera. I'm not the type of student who religiously study so whenever my parents would tell me to study harder because education is the key to success, I would always answer, "I'll just be an actress". I've never really had to stand in front of a camera before so I don't know how it feels.

A long long time ago though, back when I was still living in the Philippines and I was still a fetus 9 years old, I was scouted by a producer when my mom and I were walking in Quiapo. They were making a movie. I forgot what it was since it had been so long. My mom turned it down since we were going to migrate in Canada. Now that I think about it, I should've told my mom I wanted to do it.

Long story short, my business assignment has to do with filming. For some reason, I don't like the idea of my face being in a video. It just feels awkward. I don't know why. I do still wish I was an artista though. Jason Dy can be my leading man. Lol. Anyways, for my assignment, I have to make a video selling myself to employers. Even now, I'm cringing at the thought of seeing my face on a video, let alone my cringe[y] voice. It's worth 65 marks and I just can't bear to lose that much marks. I've already had perfect scores for my last 4 assignments.

I don't even know if this post is about my childhood fantasies or my assignment dilemma.

The Sunday Currently | Volume II

Another volume of The Sunday Currently series! I want this series to keep going so I am trying my hardest to always keep posting and it's working. I've been stressed because of school because it is midterm week.

Currently Series | Volume II

Reading

I have been reading the International Transportation and Trade Program textbook for my Global Logistics. The title sounds scary huh? The stuff is boring but I love this class because of my super cool professor. Now if only all my professors were like that...I would probably be an A+ student.

Writing 

Spent the whole day writing my flashcard reviews for Global Logistics as well as for my Customs Procedure class. The picture on this post is actually the flashcards I wrote earlier for Logistics class. I really want to ace that class. 

Listening

It's not a song but I am listening to a video on Youtube. It's a video called Strangest Things Found in the Ocean by Rob Dyke. I can't study with music because I get distracted. Listening to music makes me start singing and I forget whatever I'm studying. I like putting a documentary video in the background because it soothes my ears. Pretty weird eh? 

Thinking 

about how I'm going to study for next week's midterm tests. 2/3 tests are going to be an online test. I've never done a quiz online before and they're all multiple choice questions. I hate MCQ. I prefer short answers better.

Smelling

nothing in particular

Wishing

to pass my tests next week! Let's do this!

Hoping

for a productive week ahead. I am planning on studying for the whole week. I've never really studied hard on any kind of test before because I like to think I have a photographic memory. I just skim through my notes and I usually just remember most of the lessons. 

Wearing

A maroon pullover that reads "D I E M" in the front side

Underwear and socks who wears pants while at home?

Loving

how I'm actually following my new routine. I've been waking up earlier than usual and I've been studying daily. I've also been keeping up with my blog posts which I really really love.

Wanting

a full course meal. I'm so hungry and I could smell the food my grandma is cooking downstairs. Darn vents!

Needing

a good full sleep. I haven't been sleeping and my sleeping pattern is fucked. This past week, I've been sleeping at 3am and it's not good. I can't concentrate during the day specifically in class. T.T

Feeling

tired, sleepy and hungry.

My Bullet Journal

Two post in a day. What an accomplishment! Anyways, since two of my last post were about college, I decided I should share my bullet journal with you guys. I already posted this on my tumblr. This is the first time I am using a bullet journal instead of the traditional agenda notebook. It consumes a lot of my time as I like everything to be perfect and look cute. The one on the photo was the first page and the yearly overview of 2016.  I accidentally stumbled a tumblr who posts things about these kind of things one day when I was looking for blogskins. My sister volunteered to purchase this square moleskin which was very expensive by the way. You can always use a regular agenda-sized notebook if you'd like to save money. My January and February spread were so messy and cluttered so I didn't want to include it in the post. As a newbie, it was very hard to make it look like the ones on Tumblr, so there were a lot of mistakes and correction tape on them. I am still trying my best to perfect my bullet journal style. I've been trying a lot of techniques and been searching for other people's bullet journal for inspiration.  If I ever get it to be perfect, or at least, decent looking, I'd like to post and share more about it.

Group Assignments Should Be Banned!

Who invented group projects and assignments? He must be the devil. Every time one of my courses has a group assignment, my eyes literally rolls back into the back of my brain. I hate the idea of group assignment. It's either I get a high mark or a low mark. There is no in between. I only get high marks when I take charge and do most of it but I'm done being the goody-two-shoes and always being used.

For my HR class, we had a group assignment assigned to us about 3 weeks ago. Our team consisted of 5 people. 4 of which were the same nationality. They could not speak English properly and they never let me do anything! I don't have anything against people whose English is not their first language. It isn't mine either. They literally just speak to each other in their language and I'm just sitting there like a log. It's really annoying. Every time I do my part and send it to them, they always erase my name and put it at the end of the name list. What the hell is that?

I stayed for another 3 hours after my Friday class in order to finish my part. I just needed to get it out of the way because I've been stressing so much about it. So I stayed for a total of 10 hours in campus. Saturday came, it was the due date for our assignment. It's today. I received a text message from 3 of them saying they didn't do the evaluation part. My eyes were rolled back behind my brain at this point and it never went back out. I was so pissed.

I was already relaxing at home and I had to hurriedly do the evaluation. Then I told them that I had already finish and submitted it to the online dropbox and they told me they want to see it first to check if it was right. Ugh. I, myself, knows it is correct 100% in terms of grammar and spelling. I just hate group assignments in general. I hate working with people.

One thing I learned from group assignments is that I hate people. This is probably the reason why Batman prefers to work alone. Group assignments should be banned. They just destroy relationships between classmates. I hate everyone in that class.

College Life

My class starts at 3;30pm every Thursdays but somehow I went to school at 7:30am. I had 8 hours to spare so I decided I would try and be productive by finishing up homework that I didn't touch during my reading week. I decided to drop an online class today as well. It was very difficult to navigate and I just hate online classes in general. I'm the type of student who likes face-to-face interaction with professors. The advisor asked me if I really wanted to do it since the due date for dropping courses with full refund had already passed and I still went ahead with it. After getting out of the room, I cried a little because that was a lot of money. It's not even my money. It's from a student loan and I feel like I had thrown it away.

Why is it that I drop a class every semester? It feels like it's a habit. I'm just wasting time and wasting money. Money that I don't know how I will be able to pay back after graduating. Here I am, going into my 5th semester, still don't know what I want to do with my life. All my friends from high school are already graduated and are graduating. Some of them are working full time and some of them have families of their own and here I am, still dying from school.

Everyone I know always feel like they know what they're doing. They always seem like they're in the right path. They actually enjoy being in their major. My previous major was Accounting and that didn't go too well and I ended up transferring to International Business. I must say, my GPA did soar a lot higher than when I was in Accounting so even if I'm not into business that much, I would rather just finish and get my diploma. I just want to graduate just like everybody else. I hate being left out in the society.

Midnight Thought

Thoughtless post. Why do I always find myself fixing my blog during midnight. Anyways, I've probably at least changed my template skin over 10 times today. I was just not feeling the look of every single template I found. I swear my mind changes every second. My theme could be minimalist one moment, the next second it could be goth-themed. I'm the most indecisive person you will ever meet.

Earlier I was just blogwalking and I happened to stumble upon a blogger. I read a few of his posts before checking his information. I clicked his facebook and one of his relatives are friends with my cousins. It amazes me how small the world is. I was pretty impressed and stoked at the same time. I wanted to message him about it but I felt like it would be too weird.

The Sunday Currently | I

Currently Series | Volume I
I've seen Maine's The Sunday Currently Series for a while and I've always wanted to hop on the bandwagon and here I am. Finally. Let's see if this continues. 

Reading
Happened to visit Maine's blog after re-watching the replay of Eat Bulaga. Then I headed off to siddarthorton's Sunday Currently link up section from other bloggers. 

Writing
My very first Sunday Currently Series. Yay!

Listening
Spotify is currently streaming Jason Dy's When You Hear This Song. I've been playing his whole album non-stop. I am so inlove with his songs and obviously the man himself. ;)

Thinking

I wasn’t actually thinking about anything in particular before this part and when I read it, it made me think about what I would do if I ever get the chance to meet Jason Dy and Daryl Ong in personal. //cries// I would probably just die on the spot and scare the crap out of the two.

Smelling

Smelling my arm. Is that weird? I just put on some Victoria Secret lotion that my friend got me from Christmas. It’s my favourite scent. It’s called Love Spell.

WishingCurrently wishing to finally be able to secure and get a coop job.Wishing to finally be able to visit and go back to the Philippines. It’s been 10 years.Wishing to graduate with a 4.0 GPA.

Wishing to find Mr. Right.

Wishing to get my shit together.

Hoping

Hoping to finish my homework before Wednesday. They’re already piling up. I had a week break but I didn’t touch any school-related things.

Wearing

An oversized grey shirt and an underwear. I’m getting ready to sleep.

Loving

If you couldn’t already tell, I’m been loving obsessing over Jason Dy. I’m in love with his whole album and I’ve been literally listening to his songs for the past 3 days. Notice me Jason!

Wanting

Been wanting a Macbook laptop since forever though I really want to get braces.

Needing

I need to get braces to fix my crooked teeth.

I also need all the motivation and inspiration I could get so I could finally start doing my homework. College kills.

Feeling

A bit tired and really sleepy. The time currently reads 12:25 as I type this sentence. I’m sleepy but whenever I try to sleep, my brain just won’t shut off.

► Finally able to write my very first volume of The Sunday Currently after hesitating for a very long time. There wasn't a lot to say so I kept it short but I do want to make my answers longer. I plan to do this every Sunday if I don't get lazy in the next following Sundays. I'll probably just sleep after this post is publish or I'll go on facebook. Oh whatever. Enjoy reading my blog!

♡ New Obsession ♡

I have been obsessing over Jason Dy for the past 2 days. Literally. I just started listening to him 2 days ago and what better way to introduce him on my blog than to have this how-i-found-jason-dy kinda story on my post.

When I started obsessing out about him, I cursed myself for not following his The Voice Philippines journey. I can't believe it took me this long to listen to his albums. I've been hearing his name for quite a while but I've always brushed it off since I am (and still am) a fan of Daryl Ong after his blind audition popped up on my Youtube's recommended tag. 

Years passed, I refused to listen to him. Then last week, my dad and I were talking about Darren Espanto and ended up watching his Chandelier and I Believe cover on youtube. We've been a fan of Darren for a long time. I also clicked on Daryl's Ikaw Na Nga cover on Wish 107.5 after. I got curious and clicked on Jason's cover on Wish 107.5. At first I was like, "Ehh..Okay he's quite good."

Just 2 days ago, curiosity finally got the best of me and listened to his albums on Spotify and let me tell you I was blown away. I listened to his album at approximately 2 in the morning and I was trying my hardest not to scream because his songs are so good! I ended up sleeping around 4:30 am. AND I HAVE NO REGRETS. 

I woke up around 8 am and I woke my sister up so I could play the songs for her. She was furious for waking her up.

"Just listen to this one song and tell me what you think please"

"UGH."

I played 2HaveU and she literally jumped out of her bed and asked who sang it and I ended up playing the whole album for her. 

Now, all I wanna do is stalk his social media accounts(I'm not a stalker, I swear hahaha) and watch every video that has his face in it. Now I'm kinda disappointed that we have GMA Pinoy TV instead of TFC. Don't get me wrong, I love both stations. Anyways, yes, please support Jason Dy's career! Buy his digital and physical albums! I'm looking forward to your next album Jason! ♡
