Self-declared Superwoman

CALSC went to Antipolo last night for an essential overnight activity. No room for sleepy heads, dude! So I needed to brace myself for it was an agony!!! Hehe! My eye bags can speak for themselves! We finished this activity by 6 this morning. After about 30 minutes of power nap, I fixed myself and immediately flew to UP. Though I felt dizzy and weak because of lack of sleep, I forced myself to take pleasure in visiting different libraries in UP. Well, I was not being a genius or a grade conscious student. I just had to finalize my thesis topic and few of its components through RRL (Review of Related Literature). Seemingly, I went to UP to attend to my thesis’ needs. But while reading books and journals, Amy and I were exchanging SMS’s. We were discussing the plan on Monday. Amy already knew that I would need to focus on my acads so I requested her to ask our alternates if they can debate on Monday. I also texted UP SPECA’s chair (Lea) and vice chair (Marge), informing them that most probably, we will just default the debate for I am becoming overly fatigued because of all the activities I am attending to. When I was already accepting the fact that I absolutely cannot compete for SPECA on Monday, Amy texted me that no one among the alternates will be willing to replace me in the team. When I asked Amy if she’s still eager to participate, without any uncertainties, she replied ‘YES’. The moment I comprehended on Amy’s message, I said to myself, “If Amy’s on-the-go, who am I to turn UP SPECA down? I was fighting when I started this. Hence, I will end this…still fighting.” Amy and I decided that we will exhaust our means so as not to look pathetic on Monday. Although I am still hoping to win, Amy and I already accepted the fact that our opponents will defeat us, knowing that we haven’t prepared anything yet. So when I was absorbing the idea that Amy and I will debate on Monday despite all the tasks that are waiting for us, Lea texted me saying that she and the whole org would understand if we fail to show up in the next match. Upon receiving her SMS, I informed her about our resolution. Being the emotional person that I really am, tears fell down on my face when Lea responded. Her message was really touching… Take note!!! I was in the library! I felt that everybody was looking at me. Hehehe! With the bushed appearance I had, with all the photocopies of readings and the books I was carrying, with the aura I projected, and with my teary and swollen eyes as accents, people there would definitely think I was out of my mind. Anyway, I’m planning to concentrate on my thesis tonight…this whole night. And tomorrow is reserved for the debate’s preparation.
