ordinary day....

i hate ordinary. ordinary is boring. and yet....no matter how much i try to make my day not-ordinary, i still end up with an ordinary day. It's like i'm trapped in an endless loop
(e.g.
x=1;
y=1;
do
{ printf("\n endless loop %d",(x+y)/x);}
while ((x+y)/x != 0);
)
of ordinary-ness.

here is an ordinary day

I wake up at 4:30am to turn off my alarm and go back to sleep then i wake up 15 minutes later to turn off my second alarm before getting out of bed. After getting up, i take a bath, then i return to my room to partially put on my uniform. Once again i leave my room to eat breakfast then brush my teeth and return to my room once more to finish putting on my uniform. After getting ready to leave...well...uhmmm...i leave! duh!
So i plug my earphones in my ear then i listen to songs played by my cellphone while i commute to school. When i get to the FX part of my journey, i usually GM a song along with worthless and semi-entertaining piece of information.When i arrive at school, i go to my room and sit there waiting for the professor to arrive. After an agonizingly boring 7 hours of lectures and activities, classes are finally over, but the boring-ness doesn't end there! NO! after class, i go straight home! and spend my entire existence sleeping or playing video games all by myself. why do i go home early? because i do not have anything to do at school anymore, unlike in highschool....me and my friends always hang out and contemplate on the events that happend that particular day and on what we plan to do for the future days to come. In college, it's different now...my HS friends are in other schools, i can't find a place to hang out in UST, my new friends are all eager to go home and i can't find anyone to hang out with...so i'm left with no choice but to go home....
And that pretty much concludes what i call an "ordinary day".

How to bend time

they said i couldn't bend time! i proved them wrong!!

yesterday was the start of our prelim exams, and the first exam is CS. CS (the subject) is relatively easy but CS exams are surprisingly hard to pass. So i gotta be careful.

Episode 1 : The Discovery

I woke up late, i rushed everything only to find out that it was impossible for me to get to ust in time to take the test, so i'm practically screwed!
according to my everyday experience of going to UST, it takes approximately 45 minutes for me to get there from just outside multinational. The test starts at 7am, and i was just outside multinational at around 6:50am, so...i'm f*cked! there is no way i can finish the test in less than 30 minutes! Then! it happened, i saw that everything was slowing down! When i looked at my watch everything seems normal, so i got on a jeep and i noticed that......everything else is slower than the jeep i'm in! several minutes later, i got to the LRT, everything still moving at slo-mo.
when i got on the train, it's like we were on fast forward or something. Minutes later, i got to central station, then unto a jeep then i made it to UST! When i got to the room where we were suppose to take the test, guess what? the test haven't started yet!......


*highlight the space below for a sense of reality*


nothing slowed down. and the test started 30 minutes late, so i was just extremely lucky. I just thought i'd spice up the story :)))






Episode 2: The Impossible


Right after the test in CS, i went home to study for the physics test the next day.
when i got home at around 11am, i sat on the chair in front of our dining table and i put all my physics stuff there along with a whole rim of bond paper. Then i started studying, after an undetermined amount of time later, i finished studying then i checked the time, it was already 9pm!! OMG i studied for 10 hours straight for the 1st time in my life!!! So i thought to myself, i would have to be a retard to not pass the test tomorrow, then i went to sleep.
I woke up in the morning, got off my bed, checked the watch........OMFG WTF WAAAAAAAAA!!!! It was exactly 6:35am and the test starts at 7am. so i needed a miracle! so i used my time bending powers once more! took a bath, got dressed, and left the house, i was just outside multi at around 7am! so i'm really dead......I got on the jeep to baclaran, then i got off the jeep, ran like my life depended on it to the station, got on the train i thought to myself "i studied for 10 hours just to be late for the exam!!!!" it was then i decided to bend time once more. but it wasn't enough, i got to UST at around 7:45am, and i got the testing room at aroundf 7:50am....YES! 50 minutes late for an exam in physics! THE ONLY SUBJECT I WILL FAIL IF I DON'T GET 80% ON THAT EXAM. So i put my time bending powers to the test....and i did it! i finished the test!!! with a 100% certainty that i will get more than 80% on that test. I guess studying for 10 hours paid off, or was it my time bending powers? hmmmmm.


*highlight below for some stuff that actually happened*

once again i didn't actually bend time, the exam was 7am-9am, i got there at 7:50am so i had 1 hour and 10 minutes for the hardest exam this 1st half of the semester which turned out to be not that hard, maybe coz i studied for 10 hours? hmm anyway, i took a bath for 2 minutes(my new record) i didn't eat breakfast, i left my house running. and i was EXTREMELY lucky, those are the real reasons why i was able to finish the test and assure that i'll get more than 80% of that test, heck! i could get 100% if i didn't screw up the meters -> feet conversion in one of the problems in the test.


*i will update this is the need arises*

admit it!

Admit it!
Despite your pseudo-bohemian appearance
And vaguely leftist doctrine of beliefs
You know nothing about art or sex
That you couldn’t read in any trendy New York underground fashion magazine
Prototypical non-conformist
You are a vacuous soldier of the thrift store Gestapo
You adhere to a set of standards and tastes
That appear to be determined by an unseen panel of hipster judges (bullshit)
Giving a thumbs up or thumbs down to incoming and outgoing trends and styles of music and art
Go analog baby, you’re so post-modern
You’re diving face forward into a antiquated past
It’s disgusting, it's offensive, don’t stick your nose up at me


Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself?


You spend your time sitting in circles with your friends
Pontificating to each other
Forever competing for that one moment of self-aggrandizing glory
In which you hog the intellectual spotlight
Holding dominion over the entire shallow pointless conversation
Oh, we’re not worthy
When you walk by a group of quote-unquote normal people
You chuckle to yourself patting yourself on the back as you scoff
It's the same superiority complex
Shared by the high school jocks who made your life a living hell
And makes you a slave to the competitive capitalist dogma
You spend every moment of your waking life bitching about


Yeah, what do you have to say for yourself ?


You are a faker (admit it)
You are a fraud (admit it)
Yeah, you’re living a lie (hey) living a lie (hey) you’re life is living a lie
You don’t impress me (admit it)
You don’t intimidate me (admit it)
Why don’t you bow down, get on the ground, walk this fucking plank (yeah!)



ok, i did not create this, i just wish i did ahahaha, this is the work of "Say Anything" a band introduced to me by the person who introduces bands to me(well um not personally, but he gives me a band and then i search some of their songs and then usually i end up liking the songs then liking the band).

this made me realize all the things i did and do just to avoid being a loner.....hmmm
i guess being a loner isn't that bad....

Proud of my life and the things that I have done
Proud of myself and the loner I’ve become


yeah, we shouldn't fake who we are, we should be proud of ourselves even if we become social outcasts in the process. (i think)
