After days of some serious downpour, the weather has finally calmed. And I know it’s pretty selfish to say that I wish it was still raining, especially with all the serious damage it can do, but I can’t help but long for more days of rest. Today, I woke up a little less enthusiastic to be greeted by a much brighter sky. Luckily, I was able to sleep for a little bit more than eight hours. That felt good.

Once again, the week came by way too swiftly. And because I have so many things to prepare and accomplish, I hardly had time to acknowledge any more kinds of emotional relapses. In fact, it’s been pretty good. One day at a time, I guess.

Blessed with this ‘free day,’ I’m off to finish all the things I have to do. Next week is going to be crazy. BlueREP deadlines, groupworks for ALL my subjects, midterms, papers and quite possibly a lot more things in between that might lead me to the brink of even more stress. I wonder if turning 20 makes it any less harder? haha. Rrrright.

I’m overwhelmed at this very moment. The moment I got up and read my emails and news feeds, panic kind of shot through me. Just the idea of everything I have to finish is nerve-racking! The trick there is to slowly separate everything and handle one task at a time.

I guess the only positive thing that hell week can provide me is the much-needed distraction. It’s the perfect way to channel any spurs of negativity, and just focus. And with days passing by as quickly as it is now, it’ll all be over. Hopefully, it’ll all get easier as well.

Lately, I’ve been on a Disney-on-Broadway-high with the closing of Beauty and the Beast and the much anticipated opening of The Little Mermaid on Broadway. Here’s a beautiful duet that will be included in the musical. I love it. It made me a bit teary-eyed.

Apart from being a true Disney girl, I was also a big Don Bluth fan. Here’s another childhood favorite: Thumbelina. I remember watching this movie on VHS back when I was a little kid, hopelessly in love with fairies and the fairy prince. This was definitely my favorite scene and song. Share my childhood nostalgia, guys!

I also found out that it’s also Jodi Benson who sang the parts of both Ariel and Thumbelina for both original movies! I love her.

ADDENDUM: I finally had the chance to tinker with Twitter. Visit my Twitter for my random and scattered thoughts. I also would love followers, so follow me and I’ll follow you. haha.
