ROTTING AWAY *

PMS gets in the way most of the time. Tonight I just cried til all my mascara and everything else were washed by my tears down my cheeks. I was feeling a bit depressed (it has always been a cyclical thing even in high school). It just dawned to me that I'm rotting away when I should be "flying away". I have that nagging thought and/or feeling that I cannot continue another 2 years of school. I'm getting "unpretty" in short losyang with the academic environment.

I used to be surrounded with the most creative people who fed me with passion and inspiration to an intoxicating level. I just couldn't find the high I was looking for in that place where I am. I felt I was always tired. I was always in a rush. I'd admit half of the time I was always pretending that made me feel more tired than ever. I get tired of having to prove to anybody that I'm not just an all-fashtalk girl, that I deserve to be in law school too and that I am not too dumb. I am never ever going to be apologetic for my style or even my lack of it. I don't owe these strangers anything. But sometime I feel that I have to conform and that sucks.

Napapagpod na ako mag-aral kasi nakakapagod lang. I probably need a break.
---
I have always been the kind of person who's detached with people (in some way that I'm the only one who understands this) but I felt that staying longer in school only made me MORE detached with the world. I never had to make schedules for anything before. But now I just wanted thing to fall just in time for this and that because I ALWAYS HAVE THINGS TO DO.
---
Suddenly it occured to me that I cannot be in this place anymore. Marina told me once there's no agelimit for most jobs. We both agreed that being a model and being an athlete needed the age limit. So now I could just quit law school and return if I feel like continuing again. It's not something that needed an age limit. I even have a classmate who's in her late 40s and she's still studying.

School is taking my youth away but I'm not ready to to plunge into the world outside of it. So maybe hang on, hang on and rot just a little longer.
