There comes a point in time when even no matter how hard i try to keep myself in focus, everything seems to suck up. It is accepted that due to human frailty it is but natural, once in a while, to be not only out of focus but to be deviated from the path one is taking.
This semester, I find myself weary and out of bounds. Many reasons are to be accounted for. Many factors are to be considered. However, I failed to cope with each in the best of my ability, evident today on rushing and cramming over a paper I should have passed last week.
Much time is given to us in preparation and in writing our final course paper in POL262 a.ka. asian politics and development under Atty. Bong Lopez. As far as I could remember it was given at the beginning of the semester. Two to three weeks after, I already have my topic at hand and the three books to be reviewed. These are:
1. David Kolko’s Vietnam: Anatomy of a Peace
2. William Duiker’s Vietnam after the Fall of Saigon
3. Spencer Tucker's _______________________
Eager and excited as I am I begun to read it and envision the trajectory of my paper. But as days passed, I find myself corrupted by the whim of idleness. This may be overrated, but then I have crammed in finishing my paper, a thing which I am little by little getting used to as I shifted with my priorities.
