I haven't been able to update this lately, what with my busy schedule and all.But what the hell, I might as well stop duping myself and get on with the facts.
Okay, I wasn't busy. Atleast not too busy to disregard subtle things such as venting.I should be, but I'm not.
CURRENTLY READING: The Empty House by Algernon Blackwood [Yes I have time to read. I do so before I go to sleep or whenI'm traveling to and fro places, as the book is saved in my phone. Handy :P]
LSS: Mad Season - Matchbox20
CRAVING FOR: Peach Mango Pie D: It should come in big servings u.u
THINGS THAT I SHOULD BOTHER MYSELF WITH:
o Exteel and Audition Virtual Mall Article due TOMORROW for GAME! Magazine's October Issue(600 words per article) - which I haven't even started yet o_o
o SPC Midterm tomorrow (Research - Chapter 1) - I guess I'll just review tomorrow after our Film Writing class.
o Photojourn Midterm on Wednesday - real headache, my notes are still incomplete. How the hell am I gonna study o_o
o Library Hopping 2.0, The Real Search for RRLs
o Film Writing revision of scripts (milieu, character sketch, sequence outline & treatment) - because it was all half-assed and I wanted to make something I could be proud of.
o Radio Tour on Saturday, 10AM at Radio Mindanao Network
o OUR THESIS.
We had our topic consultation for our thesis last Tuesday, a day before Cory's burial. Classes were suspended but ours was exempted because we're way behind schedule. We were grateful that we had four approved topics out of 5 (see it was supposed to be 5, but we immediately negated one option that would prove to be a very sensitive topic) but we weren't aware of the difficulty of the implications it entailed. Well it wasn't that difficult, but we are required to gather RRLs of each approved topics to be passed tomorrow. And because we are "responsible" students, we decided to conduct our Library Hopping 1.0 today.
Our first destination was the National Library located at Manila. Well it was a total disappointment. I don't know if we're just plain ignorant of how to utilize what they have or they're just not as updated as we thought. We were looking for studies related to our topics, and we found nothing. Well we did come across four pages of articles from magazines, but that's not one would expect to have when you're in a freaking large library with so many books.
Because it seemed like a hopeless cause and seeing as it was already lunch time, we decided to go to Recto to hunt for theses conducted by students. You see, theses, dissertations,term papers and the like are for sale in that god forsaken place.
But before heading on with our task, we decided to eat at McDo near UE first. I even accidentally dropped a tray on someone's table o_o I apologized but it was their tray anyway, and they shouldn't have placed it in a narrow ledge where clumsy people (such as yours truly) could move. They accepted my apology and were bound to leave anyway, so technically no harm was done.
After the eating and ranting session, we decided to start our stupefying journey. We searched every corner, encountered so many works but still didn't find anything substantial that would aid our cause. And because I'm a lazy cow, I suggested that we surrender just for this day and make up for our failure on Library Hopping 2.0 which will be conducted on the same week, but with no particular day.
And now I'm off to deal with articles and research and all the shit that this world has to offer. CIAO! :D
