After all of the hardships of the first sem (and some fun after the enrollment), I decided to take the rest of the week relaxing and worrying of nothing--no school burdens for now!!! ^_^
It was Tuesday, third day of freedom, when somebody knocked at my bedroom door. I rushed out, expecting somebody from our family would go in but surprisingly, it was Mark. He dropped by after going to his own enrollment. Afterwards, I was accused by him of doing a self-service. I denied it. And we went on with some stories.
"What have you been up to these days?" He asked.
"These..." I showed him all the books, notebooks and a clearbook laid beside me and I realized how nerdy I had been.
"Oh. That's pretty boring," he claimed to which I half agreed upon.
But for me, it had been normal. It was my way of passing the time besides going to the mall and surfing the net. I had been reading and writing all day.
WHAT:
+ "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding - I heard that this is a very cool book (besides the fact that it is a reference for the movie Battle Royale, which is one of my favorites) so I started reading it.
+ "NIHONGO NO DOKUGOKU" - I'm still in the process of studying the Japanese Language (and I've learned a lot so far). There are still a lot to learn about... and I had to enrich my vocabulary so I bought myself a new dictionary. THIS IS WHAT I CALL STUDYING WITH PASSION!!!
+ THE CLEARBOOK- The clearbook Mark saw was my collection of drawings. I draw when I'm in the mood of doing so.
So much for the papers around me. But to think, as opposed to how terrible I go in school, I'm not driven into the mood of frustrations and worries. I read Golding's novel without thinking of how to analyze the novel and how I would do with it on a term paper. But actually, the analysis activates automatically (maybe due to practice at school). And I go on a step by step process with my studies on Nihongo, not frustrating myself too much nor forcing myself to hasten anything!!! And, I somehow lend this day, wednesday, to any school purposes like planning my Demo Teaching and practicting some "foresight". I must expect the worst for this coming sem for all the heavy courses awaiting us.
With all the books and papers (plus a computer), aren't I nerdy this sembreak? Does this mean I miss schoolwork??
Somehow, yeah, I do.
NERD! NERD! NERD!
