Darn! I was not able to follow my schedule!!!
After typing my journal account last Saturday, I sat on the sofa and turned on the television. This was just for me to take some time to relax a little bit and to take pleasure in a moment despite all the hassles that are coming my way. But this leisure sanctioned me to nod off until 3am yesterday. OMG! I had no choice but to take a shower just to wake my wits up. After regaining my attentiveness, I finally sat in front of the laptop and tried to accomplish the first two chapters of my thesis. I temporarily cooled it by 7am just to have my breakfast, but I immediately came back and focused on my study.
Truly, when someone is under time-pressure, he/she is compelled to concentrate in spite of all the distractions. I even took no notice of hunger. The only thing that cut me short to be in the thesis mode that time was the message alert tones of my phones. Since I departed from my timetable, I was forced to move the debate preparations. I and Jen decided to do it as an overnight activity. Amy could not make for she has other appointments. But we were still fluky enough to have Lea and Jay spent the whole Sunday night just to help us build our arguments.
I was not yet done when the clock stroke 5pm yesterday. I had to shift to the debate mode then so I had to at least finalize my first two chapters. Though my thesis requirement for Thursday was not thoroughly furnished, I was still happy that it would just demand me a little more editing.
Even if I am deprived from sleep and would still need to get familiar with my speech and cases, I will cheerfully go to Claro M. Recto Hall few minutes after this to represent the University of the Philippines Speech Communication Association. Our team is not hoping to win this match anymore, but our presence as UP SPECA debaters, being cheered on by our orgmates, would make us more than victors.
