I figured it couldn't hurt to revive this thing

30 May 2010

Due to “popular demand,” I realized I should at least keep this blog for the sake of convenient documentation and bittersweet nostalgia. Despite being in my more challenging present academic state in lieu of intellectual fulfillment, it would be a shame to go through it all at the end (I hope) and realize I have nothing documented in this blog. I say that especially since I’ve managed to keep a lot of my college blurbs in here.

And so my nth attempt to revive this place commences. As much as I miss coding, working on layouts, and even graphic design, I have no creative urge and time to do so. Law school helps reevaluate and test my priorities.

The previous statement is life changing, I swear.

At this point, I only have a week before I take on our supposedly most difficult semester in law school. For the most part, I’m not sure I’m ready to go back to the whole tortuous routine and drown myself with caffeine. There’s also that bittersweet feeling of finally entering my sophomore law student life after surviving the first, while some of my really close law school friends aren’t. A week ago, I hosted the Ateneo Law School 2010 ORSEM and it was so much fun. It felt good to be able to impart on the Freshmen all my experiences and even share some tips and insights on how their first year would be like. Working with all these new wonderful people from law school was also a great experience. I miss being active and I’m also thinking of actually pursuing something more this year. We’ll see.

As for the summer, I feel like it went by fast and crazy at the same time. It was definitely a good one with a couple hundred more realizations to ponder on. I was able to catch up on everyone I have “ignored” back when I was stuck in my bubble. This includes my HS best friends and people from both college and law school. It feels amazing to be at this point in my life wherein I’m able to share it somehow with others who may or may not be in law school. It feels amazing to hear about their success stories and even some of their pre-quarter-life-crisis. I guess creating that environment or place of shared empathy towards one another as people who care and admire one another is overwhelmingly inspiring. We may or may not completely understand each other, but sometimes creating that safe place is enough for me. Such as this entry is enough for me. I need to go back to all the mundane things I can still indulge on before I become a slave to my books next week.

Much love. (And if you need me, I continue creating havoc on Twitter.)

Thank you for FINALLY updating your blog. You know I am a fan :)

I am glad you still find time to join organizations despite of busy schedule. It is nice to give advices on freshmen students because you are giving them a view of how “law” stuff works.

Can’t wait to see you soon. We will definitely talk about this

Take care.
