Insanity Breaks

My day starts at 5am, plunging early in traffic to get to work at Makati. Good thing korean kids are hardworking students, generally speaking, so there's almost no problem teaching them Bio stuff. They're quick to learn and eager to do homework stuff, otherwise, their strict korean parents might cut off their millions worth of allowance and out-of-the-country-vacation privileges. After the tutorial classes, I go straight to UP Manila to grab a quick lunch and study at the Med library. After choosing a suitable study area (one of those claustrophobic places in the library), I open my book and then start reading the part where I stopped the day before. And then few minutes later, I lift the pages and start measuring the thickness of the pages that remains unread. Then sigh in frustration. Probably an hour later, my chest starts hurting, I feel my pulse racing...I'm going into panic mode again. Realizing how many days are left for the boards make me wanna scream hysterically and then faint...black out. Play dead. There were already 2 people who suggested that I'll take the February boards instead of this August, considering all the other stuff that I need to do everyday besides reviewing. I've also thought of that but waiting for another 6 months is just too long. I must remain brave and should take the risk (*gulp*). I dunno...I'm not really sure how I'm going to pull this off...

the eyebags that've transformed already into luggage bags...
i'm also having pimple break outs...

the different coping mechanisms: (1) study really really hard, (2) stare blankly at open spaces,
(3) give in to the insanity by unbreakable laughter...

...or (4) just be happy and confident about it
