i.am.alive.
i realized that i've been slacking with my bar review for the past two months. i think i'm the only bar reviewee who still gets 6-8 (or more) hours of sleep every night, still looks "relaxed" as some schoolmates pointed out (this is not a compliment, believe me), still manages to have naps in between, still gets so bored with what she's reading to the point of falling asleep on her notes/getting too distracted by the internet/tv. and i don't even normally watch tv. i know i should be pressured, and i do feel pressured, it's just that i'm not pressured enough to study 8 hours straight a day. i think i only studied on an average of 4 hours a day for the past week when, judging from the law info that i know, i should be studying for 10 hours a day. it's not really very easy for me to get my brain and the rest of my body to cooperate with this. everyone else seems to be more prepared than i am and i feel so left behind. and so, for that, i'm going to surf a lot less than i did before. i won't browse blogs, surf the net for anything related to art, photography/lomography *cringe* or anything else that is not related to law. in as much as i don't want to admit it, i lose focus on the bar because of certain things that i want to do. anyway, i'll still be uploading pics/updating my blog/multiply, especially on special occasions (i.e., annivs, weddings and such. *ahem ahem*. hehe) but i'll lessen my internet time. and of course i'll be using the net to check current events and updates re. the bar exam. wow. exciting. =P i'll also be suspending my other interests (except for gym, i need that) for the next two months to keep me focused. hay nako. this is like suicide, but i need to do this. and i'm writing all this down so hopefully i'll be estopped from pushing through with this. hehe.

speaking of distractions, i've also been thinking a lot lately of doing volunteer work for whatever org. but i think it would be best if i become a lawyer first, at least that would add to my credibility. hehe. if you (you, you and you, both of you. hehe tama na nga, corny na =P) know any good orgs i can participate actively in, please let me know. i'll be off the hook by october. woohoo.

on a lighter note, my grandma, who has been confined in the hospital for the past week, is finally coming home tomorrow. somehow, i've missed having her around. she's so funny especially when she laughs at/insults people indiscriminately. haha. she's probably the person responsible why we're all naturally mapanglait jolly and light hearted in the family. she felt so bad about missing the final episode of maria flordeluna, (they didn't have a tv installed in her room) so i was forced to watched it last friday so i can tell her what happened. my sister, however, beat me to it and told her the ending last night. the good news is i didn't have to break the news to my lola that maria flordeluna died because of a gunshot wound. the bad news, my lola's blood pressure shot up after she found out about it. pahamak talaga si jon estrada. nyaha. (to quote justice s****-d**(i wouldn't want to get in trouble hehe). on today's lecture re. gretchen-jon: "bakit naman si jon??" seems that she wouldn't have the same reaction if gretchen had an affair with piolo. see, even the justices keep themselves abreast of the latest chismis. heehee.)

because i didn't have anything better to do (oh yeah, didn't i have to study? =P), i
tweaked sort of "lomofied" this pic using photoshop. it's nothing spectacular, i know, but eh ano ba. (insert bar angst here)
it's patty and bianca somewhere in baltimore (i didn't take this pic), way back when patty was still um, a
little girl. now she's big enough to beat anyone up senseless.
joke lang patty. hehehe
