Material Desires

I've been craving for a lot of material things lately. And no, I don't think it's greed. Most of it is just to satisfy my so-called "artistic" imagination.

I really want to buy a laptop so badly so I can work my scanned works in Adobe Photoshop CS3. I just don't feel comfortable working on our desktop computer since my sister also has to use the computer and if you didn't know, working with photoshop takes hours.

Another thing is that our printer is broken! Always having to print outside is too troublesome and costly. A scanner too! How will I able to put my works on the computer if I don't have one? I think buying a printer/scanner should be more practical. And yeah, I also really want to buy a tablet! I finally experienced using a tablet at the house of my colleague in [TSP] The Technologian Student Press. And it felt really amazing! I was hard letting go of the pen!

So if I calculate all of that:
25000 - only good laptops can handle heavy programs like Adobe CS3
3000 - Argh! Why are tablets so expensive? T_T
4000 - This an estimated price of a printer/scanner.
--------
32000 - 32k?! I'm just a student! I can't hope to afford that! Makes me want to strive to become a presidential scholar[but hell It's NOT EASY!] so I can keep all my DOST scholarship allowances. T_T

Anyway, Albios agreed to go with me to SM tomorrow so we can canvas good laptops which accepts installment payments. I hope we can get a good offer!

Sleep Deprivation

I've been sleeping really late nowadays. Like now, it's already 12:52am, yet I still feel alive and alert. I've been thinking that this is absolutely unhealthy, I know that. But it can't be helped. I've tried going to bed even though I'm not sleepy, and it FAILS.

Hmmmm, now that I think about it, I wonder what the reason is why I'm like this now. If I remember correctly, when I was still in high school, I used to sleep late too. But I was always tired at that time and I always feel the need to sleep before the clock hits 12:00mn. And since my classes at that time always starts at 7:30am, I have no choice but to get to bed early. But now, I'm in college. My schedule for this semester usually starts at the afternoon. Maybe that's why I'm used to sleeping late and waking up late.

I've been missing plenty of breakfasts already! I seriously have to recover this summer. Even my running ability is starting to rust. 17 days more to go for summer. ^_^

The First Post

I'm not sure what I should write down in my first post. Well, basically, I just thought this blogging idea would be a good medium to write down my thoughts. It could also be a good way of relieving stress.

Lately, my thoughts are all unorganized inside my head and it really affects my performance at school. I'm not really sure what's causing this. Anyway, I hope this idea will help.
