Just chilling out...

Aaah, it feels good to have finally rested and relaxed for some days! Our Christmas break started on the 21st and, since then, I have been staying home (going out only when I have to run errands) just chilling out. It's great! I don't even remember when was the last time I had as many days to rest and relax as I've had (still have) this break. No exaggeration there. Ever since I started working, I haven't enjoyed any break or vacation as when we have breaks, that's actually when we are given extra load of work to do since we don't have our classes to worry about. Also, when the department doesn't have us working our butts off, the orgs I'm in come into the picture. I end up having to work more on breaks or vacations than when I have classes.

It was really fun and they couldn't believe when I told them that I've actually done some target shooting using real guns back home. One time, my friends and I went to this area near the lake ( Lanao ) for some fun, and one of us had a gun with him, so we started looking for cans to shoot. There weren't any other people around so it was alright. When it was my turn, as I pulled the trigger, the bullet casing flew straight...

Fighting boredom...

I couldn't go to work (read: had to miss my classes) for two days because my cough and colds went from bad to worse. Plus, I have fever at the moment. So, I opted to stay home and rest. There's nothing good on TV, so here I find myself answering personality quizzes as I'm still under the Blogger's Block Witch 's spell. Some quizzes can actually be accurate, you know.:) Anyway, here are results I got: You were a Poet in your Past Life! You were quite the introverted one, misunderstood and alone in your thoughts. You would stay up to three o'clock in the morning with your pen, sharing your dreams and losses with your beloved journal. Your poems were inspiring mostly to your love interests. Your words were your weapon... weapon of love, that is. You Have Great Self-Esteem! Your feelings about yourself are well-balanced. You believe in yourself enough to go after your dreams, but are able to still maintain a good work ethic. You don't take life perso...
