Right after the classes resumed after the break, everything went back to normal again. Since the first week of the second semester, we were bombarded with a lot of activities, exercises, homeworks, pop quizzes, deadline-pressured projects, and the like that’s why I look stress-loaded and super problematic now. Our teachers feel like their subject is our only priority because they all give us projects at the same time and to  be passed at the same deadline. Now tell me how could I possibly do all 10 projects at 4 nights allowance?…hello? They just don’t know how many sleepless nights were spent and will be spent because of their demands, yet they were not able to satisfy us with the grades they’ve given us. I know that all of those hardships are part of the training and Iearning process but they’re really too much!!! I do have a lot of dilemmas that are cluttering my mind that’s why I super feel the need of a vacation and thank God I’m having one (hihihihi…***).

I will not mind about school anymore when I’ll leave because it will just ruin my vacation and besides, I’m no longer qualified for the top 10 so I guess I don’t have to worry a lot about it. I hope that this little getaway will give me fun, peace of mind and less worries because these mainly are the reasons why I’m leaving school for a short while even though I know my grades will be at stake.

Before we left school for the break, we had our last meeting with our teacher in accounting before the semester officially ended. We were asked to write our personal opinions about a quotation by Keaton and then on the second paragraph- our business plans for the break most especially this halloween.  Our teacher suggested that it’s good to make business this sembreak for us to be productive people instead of being couch potatoes and sluggards doin’ nothing. I realized that ma’am has the point and a flick of enthusiasm hit my mind. I kept on thinking what kind of business I would like to establish. I thought for a while and a sudden flash of insight striked me- Eureka!. I thought of using some ideas from our feasibility study and then just yesterday, I started my business with the help of some friends and fortunately it was a hit! (laughs…)

The trend of my small business is homebased because it’s also the type of trend I’m very much in lined with. Apart from that, the asset size is within my reach and the risks are also moderate. It was really fun and the earned profit was prolific- twice the asset size. At first, I’m only planning to have it as a weeklong leisure but if the reports would be good, then maybe I would continue it with the help of some trustworthy friends even if I’m far away from home. I would also ask them to keep records as well.

I’m very much thankful to have met this brilliant guru beacause she really is the most motivitating and perspicacious teacher I’ve ever known who kept the fire burning within me to excel and pursue my vision. I’m also grateful for everything that I’ve learned within the four-corners of our classroom most especially in recording, bookkeeping, and the feasibility study that we did because it really helped me with my new endeavor.

Unlike my previous “idle” breaks, this really is my first gainful and fruitful semestral vacation that makes it extraordinary above all ever!
