My Sister's Keeper. I really want to watch this in the big screen. I know this is a touching movie. I haven't read the book yet but I know this is a great movie.

The Proposal. I love Sandra Bullock. As much as possible, I watch her every movie. I also love romantic comedy movies.

My Sister's Keeper is already out and The Proposal's opening is tomorrow today. But too bad, I cannot watch these two movies yet. I still have my prelim exams and I know that I have to prioritize my exams before I can relax. Another thing is, I'm considering if I will watch these movies in a movie house because I want to start cutting down my expenses.

Sigh. I guess I'll have to wait for a DVD copy of these movies.

I admire those who are not afraid in showing people who they really are. Those who do not mind what other people may say against them. Those who are not afraid to go after what they want. Those who are bold enough to fight for what needs to be fought for. Those who live life to the fullest. Those who understand that they only have one life so they should make the most out of it.

Slowly, I'm learning to be this kind of person. The person who is not afraid to fight for her beliefs. To say no to what she knows should be no. To say yes to what she knows should be yes.

I'm not getting any younger (gulp). It's time to take responsibilty. It's time to make memories that I will not forget when I grow old. It's time to grow up and get out of my comfort zone.

It's time to live. :)

I promise that I will update this blog after our prelim exams.

Thanks for visiting me, my chef, even if it was very windy and it was raining really hard because of 'Isang'. Thanks for wanting to spend your day off with me. Thanks for choosing to be with me even if you can just stay home and rest. Thank you for making this little sacrifice for us. Thank you for making me feel loved. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. May God be with you as you go home tonight. :)

Yessss! God gave me another day to rest.

Thank God for this rest day. I was secretly hoping yesterday that there will be no classes today just because. Hahaha! Thank God He heard me. Time to relaaaaax. (the reason why classes are suspended is because of "Isang")

Oh. Not really. I have an exam tomorrow.

Time to relax FOR A WHILE then I'll start reviewing later. I PROMISE. :)

Good thing the admin decided to move our prelims. Kundi patay patay na.

Okay, time to be serious.

I am not obligated to study anything this weekend because we have no exams on Tuesday and Wednesday. How cool is that? For the first time since classes started, I can relax just a bit. :)

Thank you Lord for this free weekend you blessed me with. :)

Yesterday, I was whining about the things that I need to do: study for our 107 exam (which needs lots of memorization skills) and finish our Fil 2A project (which is not easy because it needs to be translated to Filipino). But now, I am screaming on the inside because I'm already finished with what I needed to do. =)

It's true that if we seek God first, everything else will be added to us. I never hesitated to have my devotions this morning even if it took most of my "morning time" (I do my devotions every night but this morning, I had a desire to read His word early in the morning). I know that if I put Him first, if I prioritize Him, He will never think twice to help me and to reward my reaching out to Him. And I was right. I owe this all to God's goodness and mercy.

I thank God for the strength that He gave me to accomplish everything that needs to be accomplished earlier than I expected! =)

I can say that this a productive day.

After eating my lunch upon getting home, I slept for several hours because I was up 'til 2am last night. Why? May lamay sa kapitbahay namin and people were so noisy, singing at the top of their lungs (and what really pissed me off while listening to them was they were out of tune and their lyrics were so wrong). I was really sleepy while our professors were discussing that's why I decided to sleep for a few hours after having my lunch. After that, I immediately did what I needed to do: retype our Psy 107 handouts. After doing that, I decided to start translating my Fil 2A project. Oh boy. Ang hirap mag-translate ng words/phrases from English to Filipino! Grabe ngayon lang talaga ako nahirapan ng ganito.

Our project is the different registers of language (ex: the word "papa" differs in meaning depending on who's using it: for children, it means father; for gays it means boyfriend; and for the church, it means pope). We need to find words related to our course (BS Psychology) and look for its meanings sa iba't ibang larangan. And because our subject is Fil 2A, we need to translate it to Filipino. We need 50-100 words. Oh di ba? Bonggang-bongga ang project. This is not an individual project but of course, I need to do my share of research and it is really not that easy.

I still want to do it tonight but I don't think I'm still able to do it because I'm already sleepy. I can't think clearly anymore because all that my mind tells me is sleep, sleep, sleep. Hehehe.

So I guess I have no choice but to just continue what I am doing tomorrow.

Since the overnight at Chellie's place, pabalik balik ang ubo't sipon ko but I didn't mind it then because I know that paiba-iba ang weather so it's quite normal for a person to be sick.

Last Thursday, my head was really aching so I decided to sleep the whole day even if I have 3 exams (supposed to be 3 exams but our Math 2N exam didn't push through) because I know I needed to rest to be able to go to school.

The day after that, Friday, I checked my temperature before going to school: 37.7. So may sinat. But still, the guard let me in (maybe dahil napawisan ako papasok ng school, nawala sinat ko). I was feeling really good (except for the cough and cold) sa school. Before ako umuwi, I checked my temperature again (I brought my thermometer hehehe): 37.9. Not good. Still, hindi pa rin ako tinatamlay or whatever.

Upon arriving sa house, I checked my temperature again: 38:6. I texted my mom so she decided to come here earlier than expected. I needed to rest because ang init na ng katawan ko so I slept 'til 8pm. Pagkagising ko, at pagdating din ng mom ko, I checked my temp again: 39. Not really good. So we decided to go to our neighbor who is a pediatrician (yes, pedia pa rin ako dahil 'til 21 ang pedia :)) and a director of a hospital and nagpa-check-up ako. She said that hindi daw maganda ang pasok ng air sa right lung ko and she's diagnosing me with bronchi pneumonia. Under observation pa daw ako for a week. I have to take antibiotics for a week and if after a week, I still have fever, cough, and cold, or cough and cold or if hindi pa rin ako makahinga nang maayos, magpa-chest x-ray na daw ako.

Kahit na pa yun ang sinabi niya, hindi ko pa rin tinatanggap yun. I know God already healed me and He will continue to make me healthy. I know He using the antibiotics I'm taking to make me feel better kaya hindi ko na kailangan pa magpa-chest x-ray after a week. I KNOW I AM HEALED BECAUSE GOD IS MY HEALER.

Si Lazarus nga, patay na, pero nabuhay pa ni God eh. Super impossible nun, di ba? Ako, simpleng sakit lang, di ba? Kayang kaya ni God yan!

When I was still a kid, nagka-pneumonia na ako. Mas malala pa nga noon kasi I even started to vomit and may blood na vomit ko nun. I had to take antibiotics that were too big for my age. Ngayon, ubo, sipon, at lagnat lang ang meron ako. I don't even feel na may sakit ako (meaning, matamlay). Kaya I know wala lang 'to. And I know kayang kaya ako pagalingin ni God.

I believe that God will heal me. :)

I really really hate my Gen Psych professor last sem.

Our Psy 107 prof told us last Tuesday to review what we learned about the nervous system when we took our Gen Psych subject. I was fighting the urge to tell him (or her) that how can we review something we haven't even discussed?

Sure our Gen Psych prof was giving us lots of handouts for us to "study" (kuno) but hindi kami umabot doon. There are 13 topics in our syllabus then but umabot lang kami hanggang sa second topic. At ang first topic pa doon ay ang vision-mission ng university. Now tell me how will we be able to answer our Psy 107 prof's questions tomorrow sa exam?

So what I did was I studied what Feldman wrote about the nervous system (yes, lahat yun). Goodness. Ang daming aaralin. To think na ngayon pa lang ako nag-uumpisa because I was sick nga and I needed to rest the whole day. Oh my goodness.

Hindi pa naman ako pwede magpuyat because kailangan ma-maintain ng body ko ang normal temperature because if not, hindi ako makakapasok tomorrow sa school because I won't pass the thermal scanner kung may lagnat ako.

Oh God I need Your help. Majors lahat ng exams ko bukas and I still haven't started reviewing. (Well, yesterday nakapag-aral na ako nang KAUNTI. Kaunti lang talaga).

I don't know what to do.

Si R**** kasi eh. Kung sanang tinuro dati eh 'di may stock knowledge pa.

*&^%!@#

Now all I have to do is to believe that God will be my help for my exams tomorrow because from Him comes all wisdom and knowledge.

"I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength."
