exhaustion and the slippery slopes
just came back from the faculty student conference in subic. exhausted would be a really mild way of describing my state of existence right now.
the days leading up to it were stressful. i was juggling work from both the academic reforms committee, national affairs committee, and the grad committee. though in fairness ala naman talagang work ung sa NAC. i had to deal with block opinions and assumptions and issues. i had to deal with some pretty insensitive thinking (or lack thereof) from a person i once wanted to be a friend and his paramour. i had to give up time i wanted to spend with my dearest dear friend. i had to deal with bad hotel food, long meetings, and incessant chatter from a committee companion who had, unknowingly, gotten stuck with a cranky sleep deprived bitch. oops di lang pala ako ung mataray hehe peace sanne.
the week was not a total loss though. i bore witness to the strange drama of administration and faculty, the excellent meeting of the minds that was achieved in crucial moments leading up to the conference, the bonding over banana bread and spiked pasta and bird greetings, the way that math never ceases to befuddle those who dabble in the art of law, and the saving grace of friendship and support.
now on to the next committee.
over-volunteer-er that i am, i managed to commit to bar ops special events and flop and a lot of other things. to think that i used to not be involved in anything too heavy. well well well. fyi though to the malicious people of the world, i'm not doing this to beef up my resume. i'm doing this cause the beneficiaries of my efforts are my friends. pwede ba. di ako tulad nyo. hindi ko pangarap magpanggap.
nakakainis lang talaga how people jump to conclusions. they assume that family friendships can take you anywhere. they don't. they only serve to heighten your paranoia about being compared to the sunshine ate, the golden sister, unica hija, the smart pretty pretty thin one. if you wanna be in my place, feel free. don't accuse me of getting grades i don't work for. or accuse me to my face if you want to be totally bitter about it.
and then the idiot-oh, i can't say enough about this-who assumed it'd be okay to even ask to bring the chicklet. grr talaga the idiocy of it all. i at least was never stupid enough to pull a stunt like that. pissin people off left and right baby. wait for me to totally lose it. tignan natin kung masaya ka pa.
argh i could go on and on. i could.
except,
exhaustion.
grr.
