Down in the pits...

Had this serious argument with someone... Sigh. It makes me feel down and a failure. Ang hirap pala ng ganitong feeling. But sometimes I feel numb, sometimes rotten, sometimes apathetic, sometimes uber depressed.

What did I get myself into????

what to do with my thesis...

Haaay... I'm super stuck with what I'm doing right now for my thesis... It's like geology, chemistry and engineering combined in one! Massive attack, don't know if I'll survive this. I can but I need to really FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS.

I can't truly say I don't have time. Heck, I have all the time in the world. I just need to be efficient. But it's hard! Aaargh! I get distracted easily and my extra-curricular work is catching up on me. Ang dami kasi. Church work, socio-civic work... But I'm thankful I still have a social life, haha! And a great family where I can get much strength from. I'm so blessed to have them.

Matagal-tagal na rin pala ako hindi nakapag-blog. So many events have passed, travels here and there. Let's see... What have I done...

presented orally at EGU in Vienna, Austria

did fieldwork for reconnaissance in Baguio

did fieldwork for cross-section in Guinsaugon, So. Leyte

What else? Uhm... I can't remember anymore! Why do I just remember the travels? Why can't I remember better things such as doing outreach or making someone happy by helping them? Baka kasi wala akong activity na ganun lately, haha! I miss those days. Ay wait... meron!

wait, LOST MY CAMERA IN VIENNA! BOOOOO! goodbye all photos from my camera :'(

I think I left my heart (and camera, shet) in Vienna... sigh... such a beautiful place! And the people! Oh they were so kind and amazing! Super duper thanks to Tita Jane and Tito Efren, Tita Lina, Mike Ernst, and of course, Omar Pecho! Waddup! For waking up early to pick me up at the airport to oversleeping and muntikan nang hindi ako mameet sa airport on departure day, haha!

Sigh... Sana makabalik akong Vienna someday... :)
