Our background and circumstances may influence who we are, but we are responsible for who we become. We may screw up making choices but life is not about it, it is what steps we take to rectify them.

A NOTE TO SELF: Be calm. Seek your center, that's where your strength is. Breathe. When you inhale, you are charged with energy. When you exhale, you rid your body of tensions; relax. Don't think. Obey your instinct. ~ Isabelle Allande|City of The Beast

HAVE COURAGE AND BE GRATEFUL, ALWAYS... ^__^.

First Term - CHECK!

May 11, 2013. Saturday. 6 P.M. Today is the last day of my 1 of 5 terms in my MBA program. Everyone basically just hanged around the classroom, waiting for professors for the final term papers submission and reviewing for our marketing written exam. When it’s all done, I felt victorious in many ways even if I knew I could have exerted more effort and dedication into it. I am happy I didn’t feel pressured in the last couple of days. I felt lighthearted and confident despite staying longer at work, and staying late reading and rereading. When I got home, I rewarded myself some more raw carrots ‘coz my eyes need their food. They still have so much words to examine!!!
 
Since the day ended early, most of my classmates went for a get together dinner to celebrate, ‘’we are finally finished with the first term!’’. I did not go. Call it kill-joy, but I am not a fan of big crowds –it bores me, thus, it tires me. I prefer smaller crowd with just a few and me, maybe 5. I find it accommodating and more fun. Sometimes, I join in big groups and today is not one of those days, obviously. I’m really quite moody when it comes to that, especially if the activity is sitting around and talking. Most of my classmates are younger than I am and they are into cigarettes and beers and I am not. I prefer physical activities. But anyway, I cheered with all of them for the beautiful first term!
 
Next week, the enrollment for the next term will start. I have 2 weeks break from school but definitely no break from work. Besides, I need my salary to cover my tuition so I can’t really afford so much unpaid breaks. And, I have a scheduled weekend trip before classes start again. Rewarding myself much??? Why not! It’s all on me and I can brag about it if I want. Haha That is the effect of stress I guess LOL
 
Right now, it is time for ‘’positioning’’ (planting) myself in the dreamland. I badly need some rest LOL
 
Cheers for the next term ahead! ^__^.
