Coffee = hyperness!

Last April 25, I went to the Grad Ball. We were terribly late and I was so thirsty and hungry when I got there. Service was slow... and they mixed up orders and everything. Geez... the place wasn't that nice either. It was terribly hot outdoors and the stench of the Manila Bay was overpowering my senses.

The only thing I really liked was the part when we took pictures because I took pics until my camera was full. Fufufufu~! XD

We went to Starbucks after the event. My first time (I'm not a coffee drinker) and I bought ice-cold White Chocolate Mocha Espresso. I felt soooo talkative after drinking half of it. I love the white chocolate at the bottom... yum yum! Then all hyperness came over me... XD Yeah, me and coffee don't mix that well... we're volatile. Lol.

Ivy and Phin slept in my room that night. It was fun to have them around, I suddenly wished that I didn't have classes that morning so I could spend more time with them. Anyway it was another 'no sleep' day because I finished up my reports after I washed my hair and took all the make-up off.

Wow... the month is almost over. I feel like I haven't accomplished as much as I wanted to. I must try harder.

Pictures from the event are here.

Summer trouble...

I thought taking Chem 31 and Chem 31.1 would be a piece of cake, considering you'd be able to finish both subjects in a matter of five weeks.

Oh but I was wrong... I was SO WRONG.

I'm only on my first week and I'm exhausted. My sleeping time has greatly reduced from 5-7 hours during regular semesters to 0-2 hours. I have pre-laboratory and post laboratory reports everyday. Not to mention the daily readings and memorization of formulas, nomenclatures, definitions, etc.

I AM SO DEAD.

Plus the fact that I tried looking for the book everywhere this past week. Going to Mind Movers (which is in Katipunan, referred by my classmate Brenda because I couldn't find the book in National Bookstores all over Metro Manila) at 5:15pm and only disappointing myself by learning that they close at 5pm. -_-; And getting the book from the library and photocopying it from 5pm to 8pm (yeesh.. I was so hungry after this... hungry and tired. And there was no food cart or any food sold in sight. T_T).

Around 8pm yesterday, I was lying in bed and texting a few people after a good dinner. I fell asleep... ACK!! I wasn't able to watch JITP or Encantadia. And I've been looking forward for those shows all day. *sniff*

I woke up around 1:30am when my brother came home. Now I'm already typing away my Schematic Diagrams for next week's experiments. I'm still sleepy but I was supposed to do this a few hours ago.. I'm behind my schedule.

I still have three post laboratory experiments, five chapters to read, a lot of practice exercises to do and review for the quizzes on Monday. Plus the fact that I'm going shopping with my mom today.

But you know what keeps me going? Phillipians 4:13, whenever I remember that verse a surge of energy just jolts through my body. And I guess the accidental naps in class were helpful. ^^;

At this moment, I can't comprehend the things discussed in the past two days. I feel like I can't keep up with my teacher or my classmates. This is bad... really bad. *frustrated*

Must keep up. Must try harder.
