Every first week of classes are supposed to be somehow taken lightly, especially the first day. But this time, NO!
Our first two classes were light and we just had orientation. For the third and last subject, we had orientation and a heavy loaded assignment/research paper which was due the next meeting.Not just that! We need to study our paper for the graded recitation. Fortunately, that class is on Tuesdays and Thursdays and our first class will start every noon. What a sort of relief and help.
So what's the paper about? hahaha! It's about these nine philosophers of the pre-Socratic period. I was not able to sleep and eat because of it. Our professor did not check nor collect it so there's a great room for improvement. Our research will serve as our "book" for our subject because we don't have a reference book.(great! right?!) So it means that we need to read a lot for the sake of a passing mark and not to get zero for the recitations.
I was not able to post blogs last month because it a hell month for students like me. There are a lot of deadlines to meet. A lot of requirements to pass. A lot of books to read. A lot of time to spend studying for quizzes and recitations. There are a lot of thing to do. It's like pressure and stress is eating me up. But the good thing there is I still managed to get through that month. God gave me enough strength, wisdom and knowledge to get through all the things I need to do. He did a lot of things. He blessed us a lot. He helped us in our documentary. He helped us pass courses(subjects).
We are so busy in school because we are all cramming. Almost the whole month all we did was discussion, lectures, recitations,seat works and home works. Then this last two weeks of classes came the storm of quizzes and advance finals. It's hard to study for a quiz that you discussed for about 2-3 weeks ago you know. But it's kinda cool. Only a few of us were grumbling because of what's going on. And I was kinda I-don't-know-what-will-happen-but -I'll-be-okay and why-is-it-I'm-not-worrying. I;m not really like that. When times get tough and the schedule is tighter that I can hardly breath and I need to time everything I do, I grumble and say and do a lot of stupid things.
This semester is so weird and fun at the same time. For a short time a lot of things happened. My personal life was heavily stormed by something. My academics is a mess(kinda). But my social life, ahahaha! it's the best! I still managed to spend a lot of time with my friends.
Yey! The first semester of our second year in college is officially over. We had finals for almost three weeks because some of our professors gave us an advance exam. Well, it benefited us. We just studied for four courses(subjects) instead of nine for the finals week. And we took the exams for the four courses in just two days. Now we can rest and do what we want to do for about three weeks.
The jam pack month is now over. The stressful and tiring month is now over. We can now rest as much as we want. Sleep all day. Hang out somewhere. Sleep so late at night or even sleep around 4am. There are no more quizzes, recitations, seat works, home works. We can text as much as we want. We can stay on the phone for long hours. Surf the internet until our eyes couldn't handle it. Read books that we like. Have sleepovers just to hangout all night and have movie marathons.
Since the semester's break has officially started, we are now going to prepare for the kick off party!!!! Whoooh! I'm not supposed to go but me and my other block mates are going to play songs in the party. I forgot the theme. But it's because of the theme. Every batch must have representatives to perform. It could be bands, solo or duet. For our block, we are a band. Yeah! Hahaha! I missed playing the guitar. I missed playing the bass guitar. I missed going to a studio to practice or just even sitting in my friend's band to listen and watch them play.
I think this break is going to be interesting and so fun!
This month...September.Is a hell month. There's a lot to do. There's a lot to study. There's a lot of people to talk to. There's a lot of deadline to meet. There's a lot of activities.
My phone alerts me that I have no more space for new messages everyday. What's happening?! Time really flies. Tomorrow is Sunday. Then I'll just found myself eating for lunch on a friday noon.Everything is eating me up. Haaaay.Good thing I can still manage to go out with my friends.
Haaay. God is my strength!
I just received my test paper in statistics earlier this morning.Kinda surprising I'm not disappointed that I just flunked my first exam.Ouch! Here comes the manifestations of stress.Oh no?!It will be hard or me to recover from stress.I can't get another flunking scores.I can't fail any subject.
So why did I flunked? I'm so spaced out. I can't do anything productive. I can't concentrate. I'm so bothered with a lot of things. I just wish that all those things will stop bothering me. I did study in that exam. But still, I got a flunking grade. Mental Block. All the things that I studied were blown away by the wind.
My preliminary examination week is now over.

I have this classmate in P.E. that has his bangs as his asset. I don't know if he knows that it is his asset. Anyways, last P.E. class while they were playing basketball, and we(me,and my two other block mates) were cheering for them because they are our teammates. I'm screaming and everything. Suddenly, I burst out into laughter because while he was guarding his opponent he was flipping his bangs all the time. As in hair flipping. It's so funny. So, whenever he was to shoot or just dribbling the ball I'm shouting "The bangs! The bangs!" he really looks funny for me. hahaha. and there was a time that when I shouted the bangs my block mate thought that i was shouting gwapings(slang for gwapo which means handsome). So funny.
After their break, I told him about his bangs. And he was asking if I have extra hair clip or head band for his bangs. And I was laughing all the time.hahaha.
I even sang She Bangs but instead of 'she' bangs I made it 'the' bangs.
hahaha! I've posted I think three blogs in just one day. Time out grace! Save some blogs for the days to come.
I'm just in the mood of posting blogs. I've been here in the library for hours. hahaha!(sinusulit ang internet fee!) What's the use of paying for an internet fee if I won't surf the web here in the library.
Supposed to be, I must be working on some paper works. But the thing is, this computer that I'm using can only open my files in a read-only mode.Ouch!
I think I've been here for three hours. Good thing I just accomplished some of my school stuffs. It's kinda coldd here in the library. And I saw one of my friends from other college.
What a nonsense entry...
Some of my block mates call me ketchup girl after our self-introduction speech activity, where we are to inroduce ourselves in an out if the ordinary way.
Before my speech, I thought they won't listen to me. They proved me wrong as I went on my speech. Especially when I saw on their faces that they are grossed out as I say to them that I put ketchup on corned beef, ampalaya, tinolang manok and many more. I know that I'm kinda weird. I just love ketchup a lot.
Also, some of my block mates says that they are going to give me a bottle or a box of ketchup on my birthday. And I told them not to.Aside from I can buy ketchup for my own, what will I do to the bottles of ketchup that they will give me. Drink it? No way!(haha!)I don't drink ketchup. I just put in on my food to add flavor.
Every Wednesdays and Fridays we have a three-hour break. It's too long. And there were times that it becomes a four-hour break. It happens when our public speaking professor has a seminar to attend to. Sometimes I like it when we have a long break. But just last Wednesday and Thursday, I don't like our long break, because it's super long.
Last, Wednesday our public speaking professor had a seminar to attend to so we had a four-hour break. It's okay for me because I want to rest. And this last Thursday, we had a five- to six-hour break.It's a super long break.
How did we had that super long break? It's our computer class from 7am to 10am. We had our preliminary examination so as soon as we are done with the exam we must go out. I finished before 9am I think. So I thought that I'll have a three-hour break. Then, one of our block mates said that we won't have our Philippine history and Christian ethics class because there will be a mass. So I ended up having a super long break for six hours. We wanted to go home but most of us still have P.E. class from 3-5pm. What a break!
So what we did was, we went to KFC to eat breakfast. Afterwards we went somewhere, then we went to Bingkay's to eat lunch. Since there's billiard pools there, we played after we ate lunch. After playing, we went to Reader's Cafe(in the library). Then we went to Dapitan to rent computers for internet. Gladly, there's a lot that we can do in six hours to keep us from being bored and wasting out time just day dreaming. There's really more to life. And that's one of the reasons why I joined vox.
Oh I remember...I'm with my closest friends all the time. And while we're surfing the net we are laughing and we look like fools or it's just me who look like a fool.I really had fun.
