yesterday was a BRAIN SHUTDOWN day. so everything that we have learned in psychology is true. the brain has its limited capacity called cognitive economy and once you take in too much information, (information overloading, that is), your brain will just.. shut down.

yeah right. after the major written long test in theo last monday, (which is like 1/3 of 50% of our grade.. hay.. you do the math!) and the psych quiz on last tues, plus the other readings - our brain just stopped working, i guess. too bad it happened during the psych major exam. hayy,, i studied for the exam and so did my partner mads(it was in dyads, btw). but well, we almost failed. as in we got 33 out of 60 items. crap, goodbye to the oppotunity of not having to take the third long test. things just got so messed up during the exam. i couldnt seem to focus and understand the friggin' long hypothetical questions about the brain and sleep and awareness.. blah blah..

i also wasnt able to finish writing the reflection paper on broadcasting for comm 100 last night. it was stupid 'cause i had to sacrifice not eating out with relatives (since it was timi's, my cousin, yesterday, i was supposed to eat with them somewhere in roxas). i spent almost the whole night writing the paper and yet,i stil wasnt able to finish it. it was just early this morning that i finished it. but still, what i came up with was a CRAP paper, i swear, with no focus and coherence. (i dont wanna change it, by the way, bahala na)i wonder how im gonna do well with my final research paper,which is also about broadcasting when i cant even write a good reflection paper on it. hay,,, probabaly,i made the wrong choice of topic. hell,i just realized a metadiscourse on media is just so complex that it almost makes no sense what causes what effect. arrghh.. labo.. basta, the argument just keeps on moving in circles.

my brain still is in a state of hibernation, today, i must say. i am so not in the mood to think, to do research, to do what needs to be done. i wonder what's wrong. nagiging tamad lang talaga ako.

haha, oh well, bahala na. probably, i just need to enjoy life. breathe. magpapainom si kt later because it's her bday on monday. yahoo.. LABO ko, (i am losing my concentration on my studies tapos naghahanap pa ng good time eh..)
