i feel like i should stop wearing a watch during class hours. every time i glance at it and find out that there's like 20 minutes left, i get all impatient and i glance at the teacher to see if he/she is about to wrap up. it's a terrible attitude towards learning but my late nights catch up with me during class. not at night, like it's supposed to.

speaking of late nights, i've been having those lately without good reason. i just spend my time on the internet, doing useless things. it's terrible. but i just can't pull myself away! (to the tune of ne-yo's closer. just saw it performed on AI) by some cool people.

tomorrow is personnel's day. as in the tribute stuff so i have no motivation to do any work at all. i did, a while ago. i did the codes for the computer project and organized the article assignments for the banahaw newsletter, but that's about it. i still have a ton of work to do that i just can't seem to bring myself to DO right now.

i hate believing in this saying: it's not homework 'til it's due tomorrow. i really don't want to believe it, but i do. damn it.

a while ago, we got to watch the ICM tribute of the grade school chorale in the revamped Social Hall. the social hall is really impressive now. it's air-conditioned, there's an area for the soundboards, the projector is well-hidden, the seats are decent, the stage and lights...truly impressive. i'm just really jealous that i may not get a chance to go on that stage and perform. haha! come to think of it, i don't mind so much because i the old social hall wasn't ALL bad. i can just imagine debates and forums being held there. STC is moving on up!

as for the tribute itself, it was worthy of the stage. it was obvious that they all prepared very well for the presentation and they took great effort to make it a really good show. i say the 50 bucks was well worth it. if i had to describe it in one word, that word would be: CUTE. just as a grade school presentation should be. the depressing stuff should be left to the high school presentations (dance pro? abuse of women? oppression? yes, yes?).

afternoon classes resumed and we had a quiz in physics. i didn't study at all, i didn't even bother. i blame that on my being absent. there's just something about actually discussing the lesson in class that makes you understand it more. self-study doesn't work for me. i conclude that if  you weren't there for the actual lesson, it's hard to care about it.

that concludes my day. sayonara.
