Running..

My Christmas was pretty merry =D
A nice day at home..with the family! It was pretty awesome. Those family moments should never be forgotten. I regret all those times when I wanted to hangout with my friends when I was actually with my family. I realized now how important it is to spend quality FAMILY time with the ones I love.
Anyway, I think I have enough privacy to write what I really want to talk about. These days, my faith in God hasn’t been as strong as it used to. Even though it’s those days where it should probably the strongest. But I know eventually (I can’t say exactly when) that it’ll go back to track.
I’m still waiting for the direction in which my life is destined to go through after high school ends. The uni that I applied to is a Jesuit Loyola school. I really want to explain everything in what I experienced when I went there. It looked pretty good. They were in a process of building a new dorm. I was told that only the senior and probably a couple of sophomore and juniors will get to live there, so all the freshmen will have to live at the old dorm. From what I remembered when I went there last June, it was pretty..I don’t know. The average dorm room I guess? There’s four people in each room. What I was really questioning about is the bathroom. They looked pretty old and umm.. ;L
The facilities looked pretty good. But some of the classrooms don’t have AC so I don’t know whether I’ll survive if the weather becomes UBER-HOT which it can in most days.
Another thing that frightens me about college is the social life. I’m totally scared about that. Since I can’t really speak Tagalog and probably that’s what the students will talk in 70% of the time, I really don’t know what to expect, you know? Whether they’ll laugh at me because I’m actually a Philo who can’t speak Tagalog or they’ll be willing to accept it as part of who I am. A Philo who grew up overseas. I heard mixed reactions. Someone said that philos don’t like it when philos can’t speak Tagalog. Others say that they’ll be willing to teach it to you. The others say that they’ll probably laugh at you first, but you know, you just got to accept it.
The subjects for the first year is pretty basic. English, Tagalog (slash Filipino but luckily my dad said they’ll put me in a special class for beginners thank goodness), Theology (Religion), Natural Science (gasp, for the past six months I didn’t take anything remotely related to Science because of the Business pathway) and P.E are the subjects that my dad has.
The good thing is having my own wardrobe, my own stuff in my own dorm. That’s probably the most exciting thing, besides finally having to have my own laptop =D
I’ll give you an update the nxt time, depending whether I’ll get the privacy I need.
Later <3-ers..
