First, I was afraid of getting into a culmination with my high school classmates and friends, for short, a graduation. As expected, after graduation everyone of us will go on to our separate ways. One will take a course of nursing, another the course of computer science, etc. This time, most likely everyone of us will go different schools and don't have anytime to get along with each other. But what can I do, whether I like it or not, this things will really come. Honestly speaking, I already missed my classmates before when I was still in Assumpta. I miss our laughs, our chit chats, everything. One thing I can do is to recall the times that we we've been together.
It's my freshmen year, and I'm gonna be here for the next years. College for others is like a burden, pressure, no time for hang outs, so much homework, everything that could cause to anyone stress. It was my second time to enter in my new school during the first day of class. Nervous and excited were the feelings I felt during the time when we entered into our class. I didn't knew anyone yet. Most of us came from different schools and I don't even have a friend in my classmate by that time.It seems to me a strange place but I knew it was just for the beginning of our journey as classmates.
During my first semester, I enjoyed to be in the company of my new friends. For the school, the administration is good, and the teachers are also great. The school activities are also good but somehow there are some flaws.
There were so much of unforgettable moments during my first semester but I can't state it all because it already countless. First semester as expected is the time for knowing your classmates' personality, to adjust the time on how to be a college student, and somehow to become more mature. I thought when you enter the college life everything will become complicated, but i this school, it's not. For me, the school is unlike the other prestige universities, it is very spoon-feeding. That I think would not help us. The teachers are giving us reviews during exams, which I don't expect but what can I do, that is their way of teaching and I will probably thank them for helping us to get high grades.
I experienced to go on cutting classes just to roam around the malls. I also experienced to have a misunderstanding with one of my teacher. That experience was not a regret because I will stand in myself that I am not doing anything that would hurt others. I also experienced to go on reaching out to the less fortunate during our NSTP-CWTS class at Asuncion. We were grouped into ten and assigned into different families that would serve as our partner family for the next sem. We were first assigned to a family which do not have works. Their house was far from the other houses so our teacher can hardly monitor us, so they decided to transfer us to the nearer ones. What hurts us,our teachers taught us not to humiliate them, but what they are doing is more than discrimination. I was very hurt that I cried by the time we were transferred to another. But what can I do I am just no one and they are our teachers. And I can say they are not worthy to be respected because they don't know how to respect others too.
There were so many school activities by that time.Just like the concert of the Skeights band during the foundation day of the school. The students applauded by the time they performed on the stage. Nothings different from all other bands performing around, but they still stand out for they represented the region during the Pilipinas Got Talent competition.
So much for that, I honestly cherished the first semester. I will not forget those times when we first met with my classmates. All I want is to treasure it in the deepest part of brain and heart to be sure not to forget it. :)
