and so i gave up. officially, i gave up on continuing school. for now, it is the best idea as i am focused on being better at work and setting my eyes on my ultimate goal.
it is hard as i realize that i have failed my professors after showing them what i can do. they had so much faith in me but the laziness in me took control.
however, i am trying to change that now. wish me luck.

Report Card
semestral break is finally official.
let me now do an evaluation of my self as a returning student at the post-graduate level.
1. Procrastination
i believe i could ace my exams and assignments if i did not let procrastination rule over me. two of my advanced pathophysiology assignments were done in haste hence, the poor quality.
i am just hoping for a good remark on my final exam and participation from online discussions. this, i should change come next semester.
2. Higher learning
the u.p. approach is different. application and integration of concepts learned bring about higher learning. learning is beyond memorization of concepts.
as for myself, it was not really that different or difficult. this is why i believe i made the right choice in going with u.p.
3. Time management
there was a point during the previous semester when i felt so overwhelmed with school requirements in the midst of a busy work load.
with time management, i believe i will not have difficulty in fulfilling two roles- student and a q.a. and lastly,
4. Discipline
shame on me for wasting a lot of time surfing the net for facebook. really have to have discipline if i want an unblemished academic record.
overall, i give myself a grade of 7 out of 10. this is based on the grades that i have received.
in the mean time, more time for facebook and blogging. (talk about discipline)

Fezbuk
kumusta naman at isang tanong pa lang ang nasasagutan ko sa assignment.
ubos ang oras ko sa pagfefezbuk at pagtingin ng kung anu-anong website. wish me luck at para perfect ulit ang makuha ko sa mga assignment.
lalo na sa nursing theories.

Exams
seeing my classmates online was somehow an event i kinda dreaded.
not because i do not like them but it was just i was afraid of how i will behave towards them. me not like nonsense.
and loud. and posers.
in truth, i think i will be out of place with them since those guys are groupmates in one of our subjects. so there. (charo, don't tell them ok? haha)
so after my exam, just went to see my friend.
good times.

The Care Plan
i'm dead.
well, somehow. the deadline for our first major assignment is on july 16. the day i am supposed to take our first long exam.
let us now check my progress. done with assignment? not a chance. i am stuck with the nursing care plan for mrs. bm. her altered thought processes has also altered my normal day to day activities. her forgetfulness is so infectious that i am nearly 6 days away from the deadline.
after four years, i am back doing nursing care plans. a part of my college days where i can say that i excelled. i ask myself now where that brilliance went. it has been hours when i opened my book for the list of diagnoses and interventions.
partly, my wandering ways in the cyberspace is a thing to blame. hello self-discipline! i think it is quite obvious that i don't have it. say hello to my weight!
how about my modules? i have to read until module 9 but right now, i have read only three chapters in a really serious mode. the panic mode button is still in its shell. waiting any moment for me to break the glass.
looking back, i was more of a cramming guy. i guess the adrenaline that comes with it has helped me in the past. and right now, this is something that i do not want to maintain.
but, it looks like i am heading to that direction. or until mrs. bm comes knocking at our door asking me to finish her care plan.

Mildly-damp Face Towel
though relaxed and comfortable, studying through online mode can be stressful.
that is if you do not feel like getting a mediocre grade and personal embarrassment that can come from cramming and several nights of sleeping without reading a chapter or two of your books and modules.
ryan has always puzzled me about his cramming. now, i share his sentiments.
currently, i am doing an assignment due on july 16. though i have few more days to do it, i am not gonna stay passive with this one. work can be too demanding so i will take all the opportunity to do my school work.
doing my assignment feels like a mildly damp face towel that when you try to squeeze the water of it, nothing comes out. so there, my brain has nothing to offer now.
i just feel like sleeping through the night. good luck!

Virtual Bitching
i am gonna show the real me now by bitching over my virtual classmates.
school started and somehow, i am feeling the pressure of trying to learn as much as i can within my time management. since classes are held online, my classmates are also by virtue of cyberspace.
but, i am not spared of the usual annoyance and irritation that you can experience with classmates who are know-it-all and act like we are in high school. so whoever told that i am done with these things, you are definitely wrong...
consider the conversation below:
i kinda disliked it because i am not gonna write something on our own wiki if i am not done reading. and if you find me not contributing and too slow, well my dear friends, i am following the timeline i have set for myself. i am not gonna be f*cking following your demands.
kaasar lang. nagmamagaling ang karamihan sa mga kaklase ko. i know the need to strike an impression but hey, we are doing our masters and a little formality and class won't hurt.
sige lang. i could understand you kung magdemand kayo but even in online study sessions, you could not even follow the outline for the flow of the conversation.
hay.
good choice charlton for choosing u.p. at least, i won't have to deal with these kinds of people every saturday.

School
the office has somehow succeeded in keeping the laziness for updating you guys of the most mundane details of my life.
i could not blog anymore but then again, it gives me focus. to my work and school.
so school started officially for me. guess what? i was freaking late for my first day!
not good charl. not good.
but hey, i have not missed anything. orientation was done via web streaming so thank you technology for doing this.
each night, i spend at least one hour for reading books and modules for my studies. it is tough but necessary. it could have been easier if from the moment i passed the licensure examination, i have not stopped reading.
but, no more crying for that lost time as i try to inch my way towards the charl that i used to be in college.
welcome back school!

Candy
after my 13th post this month, tinamad na akong magsulat.
this is the reason why until now, i am troubled as to where i will pursue my masters. baka mawalan ng motivation.
sa up ba na up? pero online dito. meaning, walang classroom interaction at mga gremlins na magpapaexcite saken. walang competition with other people. walang motivation na hindi ako dapat pakainin ng alikabok. you know, i am that competitive. at the comfort of my dusty room sa sampaloc, makakapag-aral na ako.
or plm kaya? may weekly meeting with the professor and classmates. every saturday, pupunta ako ng school. may mga kaklase na makikilala. mga professor na kukulitin at may bagong lugar na pwedeng gawing tambayan. pero plm over up? ano ba?
buti na lang nililibang ako ng bagong bitch sa bahay.
meet candy. bagay ba ang pangalan? pinag-isipan yan ng mom ko. nagresearch pa sila para makakita ng pangalang tugma. sa kanyang sweet image, kailangan din ang isang sweet na pangalan.
hence, candy.

Fairy
i have never wanted to fail an exam than this: my entrance exam for graduate school.
so today came as a surprise when i received the text message from the secretary where i applied for. i should be enrolling into the program this week to be able to get in to the summer term.
now, i am torn. shall i wait for u.p. which offers cheaper tuition? but then, i will have to wait until may to know if i was able to get in to the program. if unsuccessful, i will have to wait for next year! oh no!
enrolling to the this school will leave me in dire poverty. their tuition is unbelievable! what shall i do? if only i failed their exam, i would have no choice but to wait for u.p.
now where is my fairy godfather? i need cash and wisdom!
