will be studying for math in a while

yes, i will be after i'm done committing these thoughts to electronic form, eventually letting it make its way to digital obscureness...

would you believe it, the sem's finally at its last two weeks. and this sem of mine is unlike any other. i've never had so many exams in a single week. tomorrow is the last long exam for math (and i'm confident i'd be able to cram tonight since i've slept most of the afternoon off, waking up at around 10 pm tonight. all because of watching a few more episdoes of heroes last night, and then staying up till 4 am to make a private repeat screening of take the lead). so next week goes like this:
monday: third exam for physics 71
wednesday: finals for chem 150 and 150.1 (two different subjects, thus, two different exams)
thursday (eto ang madugo): finals for math 54, 3rd long exaam for FN 11, finals for physics 71

oha! well, i'm not really used to having exam-dense weeks. di naman kasi ako eng'g na madalas nakakaranas nito. it was only this sem that these things are happening. siyempre, mag-trinity ba naman. ayan tuloy.

for next sem, (yeah, buti na lang nakapag-crs na ko) medyo pangit ang sked. kelangan bang kainin ng isang major ang halos buong thursday ko? makes it hard for me to enlist in any more classes. either i would have no class on monday, or i'll jampack all my classes in the TF block. which is what i've done since i don't have any other choice. ay, i still have class on monday, since i'll be taking physics 72. my subjects for next sem looks like this:
Physics 72: MTThF 12-1
FS 199: Th 9-12 lab, 1-3 lec
FS 192: T 1-3 lec, F 1-4 lab
Eng 1: TF 8:30-10 (um yeah, i think i have to take this because of the intricacies in our curriculum which requires me to take 9 units on communication skills which includes this but not Eng 30 which i think would more beneficial; but because i've reached my quota for AH subjects, i am not able to take this subject)
PI 100: TF 8:30-10
HE 101: W 1-4
Sport Climbing M 8:30-10:30 and
Tennis: MTh 7-8 or 7:30-8:30

that's a total of 19 units. i'm pretty confident that i'll be able to take all of these subjects (well, not the two pe subjects but i'll be going for one of them) since i've indicated graduating on my profile - which i should be, in a sem or two.

i've also looked up other subjects, particularly in comparative lit and film. most film subjects have been restricted and in those that were not were skeds that i could not possibly enlist because of conflicts with either my fs 192 or fs 199 (darn subject). i'm also interested in the CL 121 which is like a start of a series since it's critical approaches to lit 1 (this is not really the course title but something like it) and the next two subjects are the same with increasing value of the number after the course title. but even if they'd be available for my sked, i won't be able to take now since i've other requried subjects to take such as kas 2, pi 100 and he 101. other subjects that i still need to take are another ge (mst - i'm targeting geol1), hrim 112 (which is not offered this sem - i should've taken it this sem). looks like i've only got 9 units left after the second sem. this includes my thesis proper. then that means i've got lots of time for film/CL/foreign language subjects. there are a lot of integrated 10-11 subjects for many foreign languages and i think that'd be fun. it's kinda like physics or math which you take for one and a half hours everyday.

am quite talkative, aren't i. i was spurned by this talk of subjects enlisted. still an eager student, but not really when i'm already taking those subjects. being a student, i practically tackle things on a day-to-day basis, that's why i'm cramming for tomorrow's exam - which is what i've been doing ever since high school. the reluctant student...

who, among other things, misses futbol. i haven't played in two weeks. the last game was during the milestone tournament. i didn't play that long since i'm not a very effective player in terms of getting our offense to drive the ball towards the goal - much less, making a goal myself. i was quite down after that game. after all the months that i've been playing, i haven't actually been able to progress that much. i take a long time to warm up to a game, and since the 5-a-side tourney lasts 12 minutes, i won't be able to unleash my full game which i'm wont to do during scrimmages at training. i think there's also that follower factor. i usually opt to follow the more dominant personalities in the my team, and since my teammates are also my orgmates who i hang out with, their personalities off the field are those that count - and i am a naturally timid person. i think i am comfortable with being the support of others, even to the point of doing things for others in an entirely non-futbol related way and not in any sort of green-minded way. when there are no other dominant personalities in the group that i'm working with, i notice that i sort of take the leader role. partial conclusion: i need a personality development course, and i also need more substantial training (like what kuya Carl has said).
