clearing skies

I forgot to ask who wrote gowritesilly as his/her codename for the Tau Kris Kringle. If you are the person I'm looking for, drop me a message or something. Haha.

My preconceived notion of happy was shattered in light of the recent events that made my week (or even possibly, my year). While the past few weeks have been as crazy as hell, a few moments reminded me of what it was like to smile and give room for the simple joys of life.

In one perspective, Pisay is just like one of those torture chambers we see in gory movies. We, as students, run for our lives as we struggle in moving from one requirement to another. Add teenage drama to the academic stress and that leaves us not knowing if we can still get out alive. It's literally a race to survival-- we all have those moments when all we can think of is mustering enough strength to last until the next day.

Most students have seriously thought of giving point at one point or another. But really, what keeps our sanity intact is a whole lot stronger than any of those monstrous figures (we call requirements). Many people will probably disagree to this (because it's true that distractions, fatigue and whatnot sometimes get the better of us), but we are infinitely many times stronger than we think we are.

So, yeah. Here's to all my hardworking fellows in Pisay. We survived the last three quarters (some better than the others), and I think we all really deserve this break.

Happy Holidays!
