The Most Stressful Yet Challenging Term of the Second Semester.

The title speaks all about the content of this article, should I continue to tell the story? Kidding aside, the draining phase is already waiving at me right now. Therefore, I can’t go with it because I still have many activities to finish and most of them are from the major-like subject that gives me so much stress, Physical Education. Only the dancers are the ones who like and enjoy doing activities on this subject. I just can’t bear the activities that I didn’t use and feel doing like swinging my hips. Thus, I just think that I need to chase the mark that I got last semester. It is so frustrating to see number 2 on my digital record of grades. I could accept the idea of Mathematics giving me the same mark but I can’t move on that all of us, literally all the people in our block have the same grade. What is more confusing and frustrating is the fact that our professor in that subject met us only four times and gave us only 2 activities with 2 modules to digest on and there were no more than those. Sadly, he didn’t consider even the promise he made with us wherein he said; the last activity he gave to us will go to add to our grade for the second semester yet, proving that promises are meant to be broken.

That story is already in my chest of forgotten things but still, every time someone or something makes me remember it, I eventually recall the memory that experience gave me. On the other hand, the professor who went to us this time is the opposite of what professor we have last semester. He loves to give us exercises and videos that he quoted; to enrich something for us that those videos meant to enrich us. I know I am just ranting about nothing here but Physical Education didn’t want me even before—that is why this is how I hate that subject.

Moreover, there are still more other subjects that block my dream to finally take my break. There is still SED that we need to accomplish as a group because it is a group activity that is research-like wherein we are instructed to make an hour schedule imagining we are already real and licensed teachers. Therefore, as of now, we still have examinations to take aside from the remaining activities, but, as far as I remember we only have two examinations left compared to five more remaining tasks. It is so draining, to be honest. But, the thing that I am focusing on right now is the fact that the vacation is already waiving at us. I can already see the verge of this school year and finally, the start of our vacation. Still fighting.

I am doing drawings to quench my thirst for me-time. Who doesn’t want to have time for himself? I mean, drawing portraits become somehow my coping mechanism every time I feel drained or exhausted, yet I have no time to be exhausted because there are still many activities waiting for me. As of now, I dedicate my time and energy to finishing my remaining activities. I can still play my games though, but it is only when I am going to bed that and become my sleeping pill. I am just passing my rants through this article because my friends are also busy and I also hear nothing else but rants from them. I can’t blame them for feeling those emotions because they are exhausted too. Hence, may we get high scores and get the grades we dreamt to get before we enter this semester.
