Finally Studying

After four long months of doing almost nothing but kill time here in France, I finally embark on actually studying this weekend. Since January wala na akong ginawa dito kundi tumambay, kumain, matulog, at magpataba. Am supposed to be enrolled full-time in a "European Business" program pero it feels more like a series of seminars rather than a full-load semester. They say it was intended to be that way because the pressures of living and studying in a foreign country are already hard enough that the school has tried to keep the study load of this program light to balance things.

Not that I'm complaining, though. Ehehehe. Actually I surprise myself na may intensyon pa pala akong mag-aral dito 'no?! Was planning to cross-stitch, read "Sophie's World" (sorry honey, wala pang Ethan's Universe eh, kelangan mo pang isulat) and chat all weekend! But seeing as so far I have three exams, one paper, around 4 "yearly decisions" on our strategy game, a 3-year strategic plan, and a conference abstract all due for next week, I may just need to work my a#@ a bit here... just a bit lang naman.

Pero pero pero... pwede rin namang puro laway lang naman dito sa blog ang aking self-professed intention to study. For all you know, I may just actually end up sleeping all weekend. Keber ko na lang sa mga trabahong tumatambak sa desk ko. Aba aba aba, when I get back to the Philippines I'll be facing work again naman di ba? So better take advantage of this opportunity to enjoy life sans responsibility. Para man lang even for these few remaining moments of time (Ate Whitney, take it away!) e lubus-lubusin ko na ang pagrerelax ko dito. Pagbalik ko ng Pilipinas, kayod na naman sigurado!

Pero BUT... it's really about time I start working. The bed is calling me to sleep but I will use all my WILLPOWER to get up and study. Kaya ko to: I can do this. Buti na lang nakabili ako ng capuccino mix dito... it's a far cry from my usual Sbucks or CoffeeBean drinks pero pwede na din. Hay buhay... Sya, let the cramming begin!!!
