I’m losing my identity.

For the past few weeks, I’ve been idle to this blog. For the past few months, I’ve posted articles with phrases “I’ve been idle” for 3 times already.

It’s not because I’m too busy with my responsibilities in school I’m losing my grip to what I used to do in this blog. But perhaps the only reason I wanna stress out is that I’m stressing myself to keep on doing what I’m not comfortable to do anymore. I am thinking that being asiatic is distinguished in the articles that I publish in this blog, but rather babbles about my ordinary, and usually, extraordinary stuff in my college life. Yep. I’m trying to make an identity in this blog but the identity that I used to promulgate is already diminishing.

I think I’ll be making an alter-ego of me.

I’m not what I used to be anymore. I rant about politics, I rant about mainstream media, I rant about my personal misadventures… is that really asiatic?

Identity crisis, for God sake. Why now? Is it because of our organizational dispute?

Maybe. Perhaps I still have to take another doze of brain vitamins for a week.

I’m currently working on a new blog with the title “Estudyanteng Pinoy”, presumably anticipating for a more cozy atmosphere of myself inside and outside school while currently enrolled in a semi-state university. O great, another blog again.

Apparently I’m tasked to finish my comic series for the so-called ’supplementary issue’ of our student pub–perhaps another compromise to our organizational dispute of whether to stand corrected or just remain silent about the CvSU heckling incident.

Anger is not what I’m feeling right now…

I’m so depressed. I just can’t demonstrate to my pub colleagues how sad I am right now–how frustrated I am right now. I can’t seem to find a pacifying method of establishing an organizational issue which was, well, apparently left to be forgotten to dimwits. I guess, I’m calmed down already. I guess, I must continue working with my co-staffers to retain our pub as fortified as possible, not noticing its flaws for the past few months… Perhaps the only way to convince them is to show them how responsible I am regardless of these ‘depressing factors’ that changed my perspective towards them–not personally, but as a fellow Gazette editor.

I just feel sorry for them… and it hurts me so much–badly.

It’s not plasticity, I underscore. It’s empathy… it’s procrastination. If the right time comes, I guest I need to contradict my intra-manipulation and voice out what I must voice out– friendly and professionally.

For now, we must continue serving the studentry. For now, I must continue to serve the students in realtime–to serve using the methods other people have oriented me….

I must continue serving the people in my own way.

I’ll just announce if my new blog is ready. ^_^

I missed my own self being on the roads of my school. I missed the times when my blockmates and I munch cheap hamburger and diluted iced tea (on a plastic bag) in an area we call “Batibot”, a seemingly implanted earth-floored area between our still constructed 8-storey library and the canteen. Until know, I still don’t know why the heck students and teachers call it “Batibot”. I’ve never seen any Pong Pagongs and Kiko Matsings on the woods nearby the place except for a few human counterparts who sings Tagalog nursery rhymes.

Have enrolled to Cavite State University today without being baked my the borderline between summer and rainy season.

I wish I have my digicam soon. Can’t camwhore since the time I wished to.

——

I got overloaded with 9 subjects. Subjects which 50 percent comprised none of my course’s relativity.

Cavite State University, like any state colleges and universities in the Philippines apparently being less subsidized by Arroyo’s administration, showed how monkey business exist in schools.

Summer classes.

We were obliged to take 2 subjects with 3 units each for the month of April and May straight. Subjects of their so-called Certificate of Information System Management, which can be taken in regular semesters, are included as pre-requisites in our new curriculum. Subjects of least priority, which are augmented with a 5-thousand peso worth of school fees. Too much for a state university to charge.

What the hell–for 2 subjects, we are suppressed to pay tons? Figuratively almost 70 percent of the total fees being paid for 23-unit semesters? If they insist students to take it on summer, why did they also include these subjects available to regular semesters? I’ve just enrolled to one, that’s why.

Because of that, majority of my classmates were dismayed by the recent information. I was, well, laughing with disbelief when someone told me that she has registered with one of these summer classed subjects for this semester. I’m glad that I was too lazy to ride a one-hour jeepney just to study how to use Photoshop and edit videos, lessons that a mass comm student would require to take. Jesus Christ, I’ve been a Photoshop artist since highschool ^_^

They were envious that during the times when they have to wake themselves for their early 7 am classes, I am still sleeping.

And now, they are thinking that they have just flushed thousands of bucks with summer obligations like that. Regularly, we pay 10 thousand pesos (approx) for an average 23 unit semester. My classmates paid 6 thousand for their CISM60 amd 101 6-unit summer classes. I paid eleven thousand pesos for 24 units this semester, adding CISM 60 on my list.

See the freakin’ difference?

They are pissed off with the situation. They tried to sourgrape, but I insist it’s only an additional 3 hr-subject difference. They are pissed more.

I’m no moviegoer. Literally, I have entered cinemas only 4 times in my entire life. I dunno, I was just scared of the bedbugs or the yawnfest I might be getting when I accompany no one in the silver screen.

Thanks to Video City, I was able to watch piles of flicks. The most recent are ‘Fun with Dick and Hane’, and my currently most fave ‘Memoirs of a Geisha’.

Fun with Dick and Jane is superbly hilarious. It’s about a couple (Jim Carrey and an artist I don’t bother remembering) who lived a glamorous life. Dick was promoted as VP for Communications, only to find out that his boss looted all their stocks to his personal bank account. The world laughs and blames Dick while his wife loves her so dearly I don’t know the hell she doesn’t complain too much about their financial situation which I nevertheless find so unreal. Eventually, the company was dissolved, and Dick and Jane became robbers– crazy robbers that is. You’ll just laugh while watching it.

Memoirs of a Geisha is… stunningly poignant. Wow. Amazing. No wonder the novel is a masterpiece. It’s a 1900 something Japanese Cinderella, capturing the life and the emancipation of a blue-eyed geisha envied by her ugly (except Gong-Li) fellow geishas, who struggled to live her resistant yet persistent job compromising her one and only love. Zhang Zi Yi really is sexy. She kicked my heart out when she debut in the movie as the ‘no. 1 geisha in the town’, trancing on the stage. She danced on big heeled slippers while the rest is just astonishing.
