there's this unspoken rule for bloggers to blog about anything that has come to its end, much like the credits of a movie; it is mandatory to give thanks, apologize, praise and criticize, remember, realize, and regret. just as important as to cite one's sources in a paper is to recognize all things that have made an impact (much less a dent) on one's life - or in this case, one's semester.
i owe it to those people who, for the past couple of months, kept on viewing my blog, hoping to find a fresh entry on my senseless ramblings to amuse them. i apologize for not having found time to tell you what i have been up to this semester; in fact, i apologize for using such a lame excuse as to not having found time in the first place. i keep on saying that it has been a busy semester, purposely neglecting those times when i was just in bed the entire day, staring into space, burning 2000 calories just by lying very still (this is a fact, by the way). i cannot believe that i would complain to whoever invented time as to why a day is only comprised of 24 hours, a fourth (or more) of which has to be spent on sleeping. i admit that i have wasted quite a lot of time, and in the process, burned a lot of bridges.
sigh. relationships. if there's one thing that i have taken for granted this semester, it's the relationships i've had, the relationships i've made, and the relationships that could have been, if only. people would point out the number of people i am acquianted with, teasing me that i would easily beat Sandra Bullock for Miss Congeniality (haha). well, yeah. maybe. but then, i realized that having a lot of acquiantances is nothing compared to having a few real friends, especially when time comes that you actually need them. and no, proxies never work, either; you can find the best people to replace those that you cannot be with, but it will never, ever be the same. trust me. i learned the hard way.
which is why i am blogging. i want to thank those who bothered trying to get to know me, who were patient enough to stick with me, and who, unfotunately, didn't make it through to the end with me.
this is my way of remembering, realizing, and regretting, praising and criticizing, apologizing, and giving thanks. this is the recipe of a dish, the citations of a paper, the credits of a movie. i hope it's not too early, nor too late.

Such a sweet entry. The same doesn't go for me... because of the simple fact that the sem's still not over! Finals week, babyyyyyy! HA HA HA!
Gah, I agree. They also say I am friends with everybody. But sometimes it's just weird that I long for the best friend I never had when I have everyone to begin with. Or is it just me.
Clearly, this comment is an irony of my usual perky disposition. :P
