I shall drag myself to the end
I got all my subjects in our online enlistment, so I didn’t have to go through the batch runs. It’s just sort of weird for me, since I’m used to seeing long lines everywhere in UP during enrollment season, and now that everything’s online, the crowds are gone at any given time the past days in campus. I was giving out tickets for our free screening of Tulad ng Dati a day or so ago, and I could barely finish disposing of the free tickets because the crowds of students are missing.
Anyhow, classes haven’t even started and I’m already stressing myself out because of this event, among other things.
What, it’s also my last undergraduate semester in UP, and oddly I don’t feel that hyped or excited about it. I’m not even in a mood to finish my thesis. It feels like I’m going to have to drag myself to the finish line.
On another note, it’s nice that people see me as a dependable person. It just sucks how too many people and/or affiliations depend on me all at the same time. And that they don’t realize how I have to juggle my tasks with them with other duties I have to perform, too. Sometimes I want to vanish, or be mean enough to say I shall be Mr. Dependable no more.
If you feel that your plate if already full, say no. Being dependable is nice and good, but when everything falls apart, when you can be dependable no more due to loads of commitments, that leads to a zero-sum for everyone, and most specially for you.
I think it is time for you to slow down a bit and finish that thesis. You can always go back to your advocacies after that. Pick and choose. You deserve a break din naman.
It should be “is already full.” My fingers have brains of their own. Yikes!
It’s really convenient that enlistment for classes is now done online (well for ADMU recently) and that enrolling is done with such ease. Do you have this batching system online too?
yea, there’s a batch system now. we’ve had online enlistment for more than four years na, pero ngayon lang din yung batch-runs.
akala ko ba natuto ka nang humindi?
