Oh so random...

   I am still in shock that I passed the UPCAT even now that I've spent my 2nd week already here in the campus. Got my first college absent on Math 2 on Thursday. My class starts at 7am, I woke up at 8:40!! What a nice way to start college. Haha, kidding. The reason why I woke up late was 'cause the night before that, I broke up with my boyfriend. My super swollen eyes needed rest. The next day, my classes ended at 4pm then we talked, worked things out, and got back together. First college absent, eh? Not that I'm bragging about it 'cause I cried when I saw the time then. I was like, "OH SHOOT I'M LATE!!! OH NO, ABSENT NA PALA!" then tears ran down on my face. =)))


   Making friends wasn't that hard since I was one of the UPLB awardees awarded during every pre-college orientation. I was one of those with a "Face of the day" award. We were given a chance to compete with the other awardees by preparing a speech and delivering it on May 29. The ones chosen will be speakers on the first day of college. I passed the screening and spoke in PSLH-B, in front of I guess 200 people under IMSP. The speech turned out to be okay, I think. I made them laugh with my corny jokes so I think I did well. (?) Hahah. The awardees, all of us, performed during the Freshmen Convocation at Copeland Gym. Because of our presentation, tight friendship bonds were formed. We even have a Facebook group named "Family". I'm so grateful to have met them. 


   So what's lacking? My blood-related family... I miss them so much, every second of every hour of every day. :( I have their pictures posted on my wall beside my bed making me smile whenever I wake up and before I go to sleep. I thought this day would never come when I wouldn't be able to kiss them goodnight all the time 'cause I never expected passing the UPCAT. But I have to be strong and work hard for them. Especially for my mom who has always supported me all the way. I won't let her down. I cannot wait to see them later when I get home. 


   My roommate Angel whom I've known since 5th grade is still sleeping. I'm super hungry but I want to wait for her and eat together. :) Now that was random. Hahah. Now I'll talk about my classes. Chem 16.1 is so haaard. I hate graphing... I have to study well. No distractions, please! I enjoy SOSC, can't wait for Prof. Briones-O'Neill to start the lecture. I like Bio. Sir Esteves on Math 11 is super funny. Hahah. About English, lecture's a little bit difficult. Especially the note taking! Yesterday, I really had fun during Eng recit. (I'm not saying this because I know Sir JM would read this hahah) That feeling of achievement when you've always wanted to recite but when you have the guts to raise your hand, the teacher won't call you then he asks a something you know the answer to. Sir JM asked us who knows the line of Juliet in the balcony scene. No one else knew, so I took the chance to catch his attention. 

"O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name; Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, And I'll no longer be a Capulet."

   Oh, the butterflies I got! I was really happy then but didn't want to seem like it. I was one of the directors of our play Romeo and Juliet during junior year and, during our senior year, I played the role of Hamlet. Yes, I cross-dressed. :)

Yep, that's me alright. :) Awesome poster designed by Alexandra Ayers. :)

   Just felt like sharing. Hahah. I love Shakespeare's works. :) I'm kind of sleepy again... I guess I'll go rest for a bit now before we leave for Quezon City later. :) Byeee! :)
