Can we all give a collective sigh of relief for my long-delayed post! *sigh!* There you go. Oh, how I incur self-delight in hearing keyboard keys go clickety-clack. Such a long time since my fingers last touched these things.
So, what's up with my lives? Yeah, lives. What with the collegiate lifestyle I *almost* couldn't keep track of, I wouldn't be surprised if another Allan waved at me along the sidewalk as I pass by. I wish I can clone myself. Whew. Well I've been more than busy these past few months, with schoolwork, collegework, orgwork(more on that later), and loads of other thimangajiggurs in between. it's just my luck that i've sort of put them to rest for a while. Enough time, in fact, to create this post of mine. Yay.
School life
The University of the Philippines, as I have said on my last post, is a culture shock-and-a-half. Already I have had my first test; the result of which I cannot reveal for... some... reasons. Oh, horrible. Well, there's always dropping. NatSci 1, you poop! Haha.
Then there's the classmates. They say UP's a miniature version of the real world. Therefore, aside from the other social categs, the real world's got a huge collection of bitches! Oh, fun. There's always one in every class, you see. And whenever I brush elbows with these kinds of chicks I keep wishing that freedom in UP extends to ripping one's saloned hair to the scalp. But then again there are those people who strike you as friendly the first time you talk. My phonebook's full of them now.
And of course, there's the various projects, readings and essays to consider (no computations- no Math!). With all of these things blended into one big cauldron that is UP, it seems that I can never get used to college life. But with a personality as cool and a physique as hot as mine, we can say that it's only a matter of time. >:-)
Dormitory Life
Dormitory life is chillin'. I thought it'd be hard for me to be away from my family; apparently it's not. The first few weeks were a-ok. I met my roommate and went off fine. My floormates were cool. I have a group there with my other fellas. Room hopping's the norm. I get along with everyone else.
But lately things have gotten a tad murky. Because of my org life, my dorm life was forsaken. I hardly sleep on my room nowadays. I call it not as my room, but "a helluvalarge locker". I haven't attended dormitory meetings for a while, and I was left out of bonding sessions. I think I already have a violation or two, they even talked about me on one of their meetings.
^_^: Hey Kuya!
'_' : Allan, halika dito.
^_^: *drumroll* ...
'_' : I love your shirt.
^_^: Er... thanks?
'_' : Seryoso na. I want to talk about your recent excursionszzzzz....
^_^: ... well?
'_' : *drama* Hindi ka na namin nakakasama dito sa first floor... lagi ka na lang umaalisszzz...
^_^: ... well?
'_' : If these symptoms persist, consult your doctor. Este, if this attitude persists, i'm afraid i'm gonna have to EXPULSE you from the dorm
^_^: *titter titter*
'_' : What's funny? Is EXPULSING you funny?
^_^: *titter* Er, no sir. Ah, is this forreal?
'_' : Forreal.
^_^: Aw, shucks!
Sa mga di naka-gets ng joke, hala!
So there. Well I expect there wouldn't be that much problem in the future, since I've only been AWOL because of my org application, which ended last week.
And I'm going to buy myself a fish for my desk. Yay!
Org Life
... takes up the largest chunk of my life right now. Three weeks of psychological war and physical ordeal is well worth it, the moment I was anointed as a member. So much has happened in that span of time. It's not merely the prestige, or the glamour, or even the perks: two months into my college life, and already I have developed myself, and got myself a family to boot. I've found true love, and it's in the form of Broadcasting Association.
I really can't get into the nitty-gritty details (ah, the agony!), that's for the next batch of applicants to discover. But I tell you, you're missing half of your life without getting involved in this org. I myself had self-doubts during the application. But now, so far, not a drop of it remains. I know where I belong; I belong here in Broad Ass.
[I'm going to create a post for this topic alone. I'm so full of it. Arg!]
