The First Week

This week was the start of my F-O-U-R-T-H semester as a college student. It seems like only last month I started this battle and miraculously, a year has passed so now, I'm a Sophomore. Cool? I guess. We get to bully the Freshies (jkjk!). So what do I think of this semester? A LOT of familiar faces have left (for The States) and after this semester, even more will leave. So this semester will be bittersweet, and we have to ensure we make the most of it. I have to wait till next year to fly, and I can't wait. I have been anticipating that moment ever since stepping in ADP.

This semester started a little rocky. I knew this was bound to happen as I had a whole lot of thinking to do about my Calculus and see whether I should or not retake the subject. It was the most painful week-before-college I had by far because the schedule I preregistered for will be useless if I plan of retaking the course. After thinking looooooooooooooooooong and hard, I decided I should, for the better. My GPA was OK, didn't dip into the danger zone yet. Was still up there in the three pointers but I decided I wanted to improve. You see, I did not fail the class, I was just so unsatisfied about my grade. I had the hardest time editing my schedule for this semester considering the probability of full classes, hence me not getting a spot. I made like F-O-U-R different schedules which was quite useless as I entered my desired classes HASSLE FREE. All that brain juice squeezed out...for nothing. FML.

Then the drama unfolded. This is totally classified a.k.a top secret a.k.a I-can't-tell-you-even-if-my-life-depended-on-it, kind of drama so we shall stop here. Going through this and college was quite challenging. This situation just baffles me at times. However, I shall stop complaining/sulking/emo-ing/depress-ing/sad-ing and all the other things in that direction. I need to focus on this semester. My application depends on it, my life depends on it. The antidote? Chris Brown's 'Crawl' playing on replay. I heard this song for more than 47 48 times already today. It is a beautiful song, in my opinion. That and also praying to God for guidance and direction. Don't forget that, no matter what your religion is people.

Highlights of the week include my Interpersonal Communications class. It's pretty darn fun! Perhaps the most interactive class of the semester. Thanks to Andre for telling me this class will be awesome.

Before I kill you of boredom (hey, I AM an amateur writer), I shall stop here. More of this to come.

'If we crawl 'til we can walk again,
Then well run until we're strong enough to jump,
Then we'll fly until there is no wind,
So lets crawl...crawl...crawl...'
