Yay, it's finally the sembreak! The post of this title should have been "Happiness beckons" or basically anything that contains the word "happy", because I know that's what I should feel by now. But no. I don't feel happy. The emo trigger has popped tonight and it's making me miserable.

In any case, I've done quite a few nice things this weekend. I figured it's about time to punctuate the first sem with a few good things for my soul:

[x]  Read Life of Pi by Yann Martel (Provoking book! If there's anything I've learned aside from life and faith and practical shizz about animals, it's the tiring routine of looking at the blue expanse that my father probably falls into whenever he's aboard).

[x] Jogging. Though this is something that's more for my body than for my soul. We rarely have the chance to do physical activities in Manila, and yeah, it hasn't done my body any good.

[x] Tried to play Sway by Bic Runga on the piano. I'm not yet done though. 'Cause like, I'm no pro, and yeah. You get the drift. I got the sheet music and all but I forgot everything that I learned in Pisay music classes. I resolved to make do with a Youtube tutorial video instead.

[ ] Read the story "Flight to the Stars", the first in a collection of stories in a book by Samantha Coyiuto. I bought the book because of her age, primarily. :)) She's only 16 but she's already a published writer.

Here's something I wish I'd done this weekend:

[ ] Watch Next to Normal. I really, really wanted to watch this. I planned to watch with my IMED friends, but it didn't push through in the end. For one, the tickets were expensive, and also, I think they wanted to do their Comm/Kom paper this weekend. I swear I'll watch a musical before this year ends.

[ ] Fix my room. It's been a stockpile of sorts since I moved to a dorm last June. Not good.

If I were my old self, I would probably proceed to the part where I rant about my life and love and other things in between. But no. That gets tiring din pala.

I know I'll have my happily-ever-after soon enough (especially if I don't keep track of the days and foget the conscious pursuit of happily-ever-after altogether.

I know the residing cynic in me will probably laugh at this post and the mention of the world "happily-ever-after," but whatever, okay.

I know I should do Kom stuff now.
