Random Thoughts: I am Getting Meaner Everyday


I am taking a break from my usual routine of checking papers. Well, actually, I've only checked about 10 or 15 papers or so, and I don't think that the rest of the day would actually suffice for this particular task. Anyway, what the heck. A blog entry would not be a burden (considering the fact that I have wasted half a day trying to play Superpoke Pets on Facebook).

Before getting to the main topic of this nonsense blog entry, let me tell you what happened yesterday first.


Contrary to what I thought before, I was not the worst reporter in MA class. It turns out that there was another classmate of mine who was not ready to report even one bit. To further clarify this point, I'd like to state that she just read through her report the whole time without even explaining a bit about it. I didn't plan to do that. I intend to explain some points, and I won't definitely just go through the whole thing reading everything straight from the book.

To tell you frankly, I am in the verge of deciding whether I should drop my classes altogether or not. I certainly am having a difficulty getting through my classes since my classes require me to work double time, unlike the time that I was still getting my education units for PNU. Back then when I was still on PNU, I was always out of the class during discussions because the things that were being discussed in class didn't appeal to me at all (considering that I was taking up Education units before). But now, I actually have to listen (not that I'm not listening at all before, mind you).

To sum it up, I didn't report for English class yesterday because our professor had a great time rediscussing the point of my classmate who just read the report straight from the book and Powerpoint presentaton. On the other hand, Literary Criticism class went on fine too, except for the part where Prof. Dimalanta emphasized the point that that subject is one of the hardest ones we're going to take as Literature majors. I whined quite loudly. Good thing the professor didn't hear me.

Well, wish me luck in passing the subjects. I won't drop them after all. I'm going to fight inferiority complex till the end. Or whatever.


**********************
I noticed that I am getting meaner everyday.

Perhaps this is already noticeable for the avid readers of my blog, especially those readers who actually know me in person.

The thought actually came into mind when I asked my best friend (literal, not figurative best friend, you know what I'm talking about) about the things that I have been doing to other people. She said that I am getting meaner, and in a way, she's actually afraid of me. I agree with her in a way.

I didn't want to be this way, but I guess that you'll also understand my point when you live in the same world that I'm living in. I feel like a once-being-trampled-upon protagonist rising to a merciless-revenge-driven individual that you usually see in those corny drama shows.

The only thing that I can be sure about is the fact that I am not going to be a stark-raving lunatic trying to get even with people who have done me wrong. Only one, two or three people would be enough.

Well, back to checking.
