Today is June 1

As far as I'm concern, summer has officially ended.

The only thing left to do is to prepare for the semester ahead.

Today, June 1, I decided to start shopping for school supplies. It has always been one of my favorite things to do when I was a child. I'd go back and forth across the aisles of National Bookstore searching for the right kind of notebook for me. It's funny, now that I think about it, it was like I was waiting for a notebook to choose me. Ok, enough with the mysticism.

Oddly enough, I wasn't as excited this year as I have been in previous years. Usually I'd spent hours in National Bookstore, and in fact, I'd be going in and out of different branches across the metro. But this year, it took me no more than 20 minute (believe me, that's way below my average). It was like I didn't even care anymore what I bought, just as long as I bought something.

Then, during my commute back home, it suddenly hit me why. I was still so freaking exhausted. I haven't relaxed enough to condition my brain for the next semester of hell in law school. In fact, I've been suffering from recurring headaches during the entire summer. Plus, I've gained weight and I don't feel healthy anymore. Argh. This is so frustrating. School starts in a couple of days, and I do not feel that I'm mentally and physically ready for the gruesome and arduous semester of taxation, succession, evidence, bills, PIL and transpo. If it's any indication of what's ahead, then I'm bound to get even more headaches in the succeeding months.

Ok, got to change my game plan. Get more sleep. Plenty of sleep. Exercise dammit. Stop staring at ur Mac. Party. Drink. Hang out. Try living for the next 9 days. Relax.
