Haaay, I came home late again, today I came home, well at around 12pm, yesterday it was around 1am, the day before that I slept at a classmate’s house, and the day before that I came home at around 10pm.

.

The cumulative sleep that I’ve had for this whole week starting Saturday can be counted using the fingers of my two hands. I don’t know where I’m getting the energy, but still being overly busy is a helluva lot better than brooding.

.

Engineering week is only a few days away, and supposedly today’s the last day of editing for the documentary making contest hosted by the Engineering Student Council. I happen to be the editor for my org’s documentary, and that is the exact reason why I have to come home late.

.

The editing time is only 7:30 – 11:30 Aside from the absurd editing schedule, I think it’s enough to say that me and my colleagues in this extremely exhausting endeavor, have encountered every possible problem there is.

.

First we didn’t have the proper cable to transfer our film into digital form. I had to go to makati with Ate Katre to borrow a connector from my sister’s office mate. Afterwards, we find out that the voice over we made isn’t actually appropriate for the footage we have, so we had to start another storyboard. To top it all off, on the morning of the last day for audio file passing, the laptop that contained all the footage, including the audio crashed.

.

It was Ate KAtre’s Laptop by the way. When we went to the ESC office to ask for the copy that we passed earlier so we can pre-edit the audio in time for that evening’s editing, we find out that they misplaced our footage. And now, we find ourselves, or rather, I find myself out of time to actually edit the damned thing. Well as I said, at least it distracts me.

.

On a lighter note, at least nakapag bonding kami ni Ate Katre, it seems we have almost the exact same sentiments about certain subjects. And that rather scintillating discussion with her earlier was the reason why I came home late.

.

When I arrived home, I figured, my globe unlimited would go to waste if I won’t forward at least one quote to all of my globe distribution list. And guess what I forwarded? I forwarded the message “Di pa ako umuuwi” a message from my sister to me, which I dunno why, but I accidentally forwarded to two distribution lists.

.

People were texting me with shocked questions of “Bakit di ka pa umuuwi?” “San ka nagpunta?” etc. One orgmate even called my cel up to check on me (Aww touch) Hahahah!

.

I think my brain hung there for a second, maybe I’ll need to reformat. Wouldn’t it be cool if you could just reformat your brain so you could erase everything that’s bothering you, and then you can back-up the memories you need.

.

I wish it were that easy. Anyways, tomorrow is the deadliest of deadlines for Docu, it was extended because of all the technical problems that the participants are having, so I’ll have to practice what to do for tomorrow.

.

Unfortunately, that isn’t the end of my torment, I still have an exam in ChE 132, for this Saturday, and I still have to practice for AWITAN, a choral singing contest, also a main event in Engineering week. It’s weird though, I’m overly tired but, it seems I don’t feel hungry, everytime somebody asks me to join them in a meal, I don’t even have the slightest feeling of hunger.

.

Well, honestly, I haven’t felt like eating until earlier this evening when me Ate Katre and Argel ate together back @ teacher’s Village.

.

Well if there was anything good that came out of all of this is that me and Ate Katre got to spend time together, I didn’t know that we had so much in common, and it was actually fun, as well as “educational” to talk to her. As I said, we have very similar sentiments for a certain subject.

.

My eyelids are resisting the force that I am applying to keep them open, I’d probably doze off, just like I did when I slept at Ate Katre’s Room the other day to polish up my editing on her laptop. I was extremely surprised to realize that I actually fell asleep on top of the laptop. \

.

And If I’m not editing on Ate KAtre’s Laptop in her house, I’d be editing on Ate Katre’s Laptop inside the Molave Dorm Study area. Hahaha, ang kapal ng mukha namin, pumapasok na lang kami basta tapos makikisaksak ng laptop dun sa study area, all for docu naman eh. But boy would I be able to breathe easier once this is finished.

.

Well I gotta go, I’ll have to catch up on my singing or else I’ll sound off pitch when I do attend the Awitan practices.
