East Asian goodies + a movie.

After the Family Day at school, I was already well on going home until my mom called me and said that she didn't have anyone with her at Robinson's and demanded that I go there at once and accompany her. Of course, I blatantly refused the offer because I had just spent the whole morning and afternoon around people and I just wanted to go home and rest my bone-tired body. But my weak attempt at declining was no use because as always, she wins.

We had a late afternoon snack at Shakey's and I think my mom could sense my resentment towards her so she said that she'd buy me a book. I think I replied something along the lines of "The books here suck." and "I wish you'd bought me Norwegian Wood while you were in Manila."  Yes, I know I can be quite a little brat sometimes.  ☹

Afterwards, we just kind of roamed around the department store listlessly and then my mom said she needed a new bag and I, having zero interest in those kinds of things, went off to this little section that was filled with all kinds of cute East Asian goodies. Bought a few stuff (the ones underlined):

(from left to right, top to bottom) Cookie jar mouse pad,  Watermelon memo pad, Norwegian Wood, Rilakkuma Cord Holder, kawaii mirror, The Little Prince CD, and a cute notebook

 And then and then and then we went to National Bookstore because my mom still insisted on buying a book although I was a bit reluctant because I knew there weren't going to be nice books available. So I went to the Fiction section and shifted through the books aimlessly, my whole disposition looking uninterested until a saleslady passed by and I don't know what drove me to ask if they had a copy of Murakami's Norwegian Wood because I've asked them countless of times and they always said no but this time, she asked me to follow her and lo and behold, THERE WAS NORWEGIAN WOOD.

*sob sob fucking sob hyperventilate sob sob flail sob run to Mom sob shake sob cry*

And it was the last copy too!

Needless to say, I was a very happy bunny, which made my Mom a happy penguin and then she even told me to go buy candy and melon milk! A LITER OF MELON MILK. Mehehehehehehehe.

Afterwards, we stopped by Astro Vision because she was looking for a copy of Mamma Mia and while she was sorting through the collection of CDs, I found The Little Prince and since I loved the book so much, I went out and bought it (or rather, Mom bought it).

Yesterday was <3

I'm not so stupid after all.

Cards Out was this afternoon and I placed 6th in the whole class!

I was so shocked since I didn't take school seriously last quarter and every time I actually tried to study, something better would come along and I'd get distracted and it was goodbye to Biology textbooks and Math equations and hello to fictional characters and pretty boys.

I'm not so grade-conscious, but I do care about my studies. And I know that if I slack off, Mom would cut down my internet connection and I'd be done for good. I was so relieved to find out that I had honors. Plus, no line of 8's!!! They're all 9's and this has never happened in my high school life before so I was so fucking happy and proud of myself. ehehe

This afternoon was filled with so much hugging, congratulating, shouting, crying (both from immense sadness and satisfaction), and thanking no one in particular. The feeling was overwhelming but the good kind ♥

Hiatus.

Mini-hiatus, actually.

I won't be able to post until this Saturday, because such things called exams exist in this world. I actually haven't studied a thing yet, which is why I'm getting kind of worried and paranoid. I'm not that much of a grade-conscious student, but my grades definitely matter to me. I just don't want to let myself down, in a way.

So yeah, this is probably the most uninteresting in all of my uninteresting posts but well, to be quite honest, I kind of don't give a fuck at the moment.

Julienne says hello.

I'm in the internet lab at school.

Mentally, Physically, and Emotionally Exhausted.

Throughout the entire day, only nagging returns
What are you doing at your desk today
During this breathless day
Even if there’s no place to rest
Never become weak
Even if there’s no one
To understand your grieving heart
Never give up

This school week passed by in a blur yet my body, mind, and spirit still feel tired and weary. It seems like I get irked by every single thing the teacher asks us to do, I get irritated by every single thing my friends talk about that is not relevant to my interests, and I am so annoyed at the moment that my legs are aching. I guess I was just used to the lack of motion and bustle and the inactivity of the health break that school completely drained me out. Ugh.

Also, the previous post was all about my right eye that had gone horribly wrong yesterday. It became even worse when I woke up this morning. It was all swollen and incredibly disproportional that I spent half of the morning telling my classmates that I got attacked by a measly speck of dust. It was highly embarrassing and pathetic. These kinds of things only happen to moi.

Also, Cards Out was this afternoon and although I'm satisfied with my grades, I know I could've done better. School should be at the top of my priorities list but sadly, it isn't because I still give the greatest importance into getting enough sleep. Sleep is my best friend.

And as I end this post, I realize how much of a life I have. Or lack of it.
