I woke up this morning with a burning fever, and my body just literally tired. It's the last day of classes in Karlslunde, and after 2 weeks my body just shut down on me. A big shame I'm missing Communication, which the others said is the best class this module, yet I needed the rest. Hopefully, the day off will give me some time to recuperate for the closing dinner later.
Now, I'm here bunched up under the blankets in my room, having some time to think. It's quite crazy that right now I'm here in Denmark. I never thought things would have turned out this way. A year ago at this time, I was this boy who would be graduating with a path ever so unclear before me. Though, what lies ahead still seems so hazy; step by step I grow and discover new things.
Jackie and Casey both know that aside from my training and my Eurotrip holiday, these 3 weeks would be spent for me to reflect on things. In the midst of IS-LM curves for Economics, tax shields and ROI's for Investment, and the pulsating parties each night at the activity room, my mind wanders away to the decisions I will make when I come back home to Manila.
Gustavo, my Brazilian friend, asked me the other week
"Yan, is there something wrong? You look sad." The thing was, I didn't really feel that down that day, but I guess I was thinking a lot... and maybe even if I didn't know it, the sadness was showing.
In most ways, I like being here in Denmark. The distance seems to lessen things that hurt. But in a few days I'll be back home and I have got no clue as to still what I would do.
I wish the answers to life's questions were easy. Life is like taking a course in uni I guess, but most times the tests you can't study for, with the only preparation being a strong spirit and previous experiences. And unlike uni where I did okay, life always seems to be flunking me.
Maybe the week in Paris will shed more light to questions I have.
