try, trying, tried, tired

hey!

After more than a month of inactivity, the best I can say is 'hey', LOL. Somehow, writing this gives me both a familiar and unfamiliar feeling. It's just that it feels like it has been too long since the last time I tried to write and here am I again trying to write something that could probably make some sense.

My friends here know that I am always busy but the past months made me extra busy and so, let me just share what are those things that left me tired.

Sem-ender

Is it just me or every end of the semester is just really the time where students are busiest? Final examinations are waving, final quizzes, final requirements, term papers, and other requirements that our ever so 'hardworking' professors could think of.

I've already finished six semesters in college and among all those, the sixth was really the hardest. I have always been a procrastinator but never did I felt the amount of stress I got this past semester. I don't know what's with the second semester of third year, it was just so hard for me and I even doubted myself if I will be able to finish all my requirements on time.

But thankfully, with the grace of God, I was able to comply all the required outputs on time. And since I really had a hard time for the past semester, I wasn't actually expecting a high grade. I know that almost all of my outputs are rush works and I wasn't really on my best self as I do that so I was really surprised to see that I got good grades on our student portal.

Well, this is not really that high but this is higher than my previous grades. Posting this here gives me second thoughts since I never really tried posting my grades online but whatever, most of you guys don't know me anyway. Hehe

Student Organization

Next on the list is the student organization which I am part of. You see, academically, I am not really competitive, I procrastinate a lot and a passing grade is enough. But I am really active as a student, joining this and that. I started this org journey when I was on my second year and on my third year, I feel like the organization has really made use of me. chour

Got a lot of stress on the org since I really did became useful. I was almost the main technical on all of our activities, I edited some publication materials, did the paper works, and I even became a video editor. LOL

• Income Generating Project

I was also in charge on our org's income generating project which is one of the greatest contributor of my stress but still, no matter how many times I mentioned the word 'stress', these org works gave me such kind of fulfillment and I also did gained a lot of skills through our organization.

For our IGP, we decided to sell our own org merchandise where we offered two different designs of shirts and tote bags, available in black and white. And though this really gives me a lot of stress, I'm still glad that we were able to sell merch, double of our quota which gives us income that we will be using to fund our upcoming activities on the next semester.

• Annual Marketing Competition

I thought my busy days will be over once the semester is done but I was wrong. But this is my own doing. So, me and my friend who is also my orgmate decided to join the annual marketing competition hosted by the Philippine Junior Marketing Association (PJMA) which we are associated.

We are required to make a marketing plan for the given case to us and a promotional video for that company. This seems easy but this is a real-life solution to a real company, all information are real and this is really different on our school works so this is really giving us a hard time. We still don't have any progress on the paper and our deadline will be on July 2. Seems like we'll be doing another rush work.

Another reason why we joined in here despite the stress is the cash prize. LOL.

• Marketista Award

This is another activity of the PJMA and I was assigned by our org's CEO to be the in-charge person on joining this activity. I'll be entering on 5 categories of major awards so this is another work for me. :) Good thing, I still have until July 10 to make our paper for this one so I can focus on the Annual Marketing Competition for now.

Aside from my university stuffs, I am also busy this vacation since I am helping out on our business. *sigh.

There you go! I feel like this is too much of an update but this is just me trying to write again. Hopefully, I'll be able to write regularly because I already have a bunch of ideas here about what to write. I so missed writing like this!

Anyway, how are you all? I hope you're doing good. Catch up soon!

Before I end this, I just want to thanks these two folks I have here. Despite my inactivity, their sponsorship remained, big thanks @Momentswithmatti and @Kendy42! I'll really try to be worth of your sponsorship this time. :)

Lastly, Ate @Ruffa, I'm back! Finally! Haha. Thanks sa pagpasa ng kasipagan. :)))))

Will be back with a really meaningful write-up on my next published. Hehe
