TGIF

It's friday night and today we're not out playing or preparing for a weekend trip. Instead we're all over at Rachel's just listening to good songs, drinking dessert wine & beers (cause it's damn cheap here omg) , munching on chips and just plain chilling.

Why? Cause beginning next monday it's our second partials week. Partials just mean midterms but we have two of them. And since we haven't studied at all the entire past sem we had better use this weekend to look at the books for the first time. Hahahaha.

And it hit me now that this chill life is going to happen to me once and once only. When I'm back, it's back to the crazy rice-cooker society (well, pressure-cooker is the correct verb but I'm missing rice now) and it's going to go on forever. Or is it? Maybe I've managed to gain a new insight on life, or maybe I'll just return to the same old me. Being here made me feel like I've been living life wrongly all these while. It's like I just live, you know? I had never "thought" or made conscious decisions. It's like the next hour, day and week is a given, and I thought I was okay with that. But being here has taught me that my rigid life is much more malleable than I've let myself think it is.

I'm sure this doesn't make any sense at all to all you readers but it's the best I can express however I'm feeling now. And I'm sure to be glad that all these are documented when I look back to this blog years later. (Like how Joel and I spent hours laughing at my old blog posts from my sec school days) And when he said though I was much more childish I sounded happier then. This is what growing up robs you of - carefreeness.

Well, anyways, reality is sinking in. Just when I have gotten used to the life here, starting to really enjoy my chill and vacationing life, I have a little more than 1 month left. Taking 2 weeks away for exams, my time here is ending.

Time to go out there and enjoy the remaining time in Mexico, Val! Vamos!
