I am HD

That I kept asking myself. 

How much do I have to give so that I can say that I've done all right? 

When can my heart sing, I did my best and my best is good enough..? 

My recent thoughts keep on running on the same line. This quote keeps on popping on my mind whenever I self-check and self-assess on my everyday interactions with people. Clearly, wounds and past pains can do a lot to a person's future. Not financially or anything.. but something deep. Deep inside a hurt and scarred person, there lies caution and fright to the future. These are manageable, but the pain it had caused is not. It is lasting. It can change a person. Tested and proven.

I know. It's a very vague post. 

Grabbed from Dr. Philipina Marcelo's picasa album ;) Some pics during my always talked-about event.  InnoVision: The 2011 UST Chemical Engineering-Rebisco Product Innovation Challenge + Mini Expo. Held last February 23-24, 2011 at the Roque Ruano Building quadrangle. 

As I told Maam Philip, it was the best stress ever. Grabe lang. Bago palang maapprove ung product namin last December, butas ng karayom na. And then came the making of the elusive perfect-textured prototype! These series of phrases keep ringing on my mind for the last two months:

I know. Eyebags, right?

We were scheduled to have a quiz in Thermo yesterday at 5 to 7PM. But funny you'd think that almost half of the other section called in sick during the weekend (ehem, IP Lab!) so my professor kindly moved the exam. And then there's a supposed makeup class for MatSci today at 7-10AM plus a quiz this afternoon, but lucky you'd say that my prof texted me this dawn to tell that everything is moved. Ha.

Last minute moving of everything I have prepared for is my pet peeve. But this time is different simply because I was not prepared. Ha. I was so lazy during the weekend because I was so desperate to get a whole weekend back after the whole IP Lab experience. The only thing I was peeved about is the damn-I-slept-late-for-nothing thought that keeps nudging my sleep-deprived head. I admit I was too lazy to study, but I tried and forced myself, you know. The thought pains my butt.. and my head.

Which means.. I have no reason to screw my MatSci and Thermo quiz this week.
