too much..can't handle...
excruciating.
I can't believe this... I had completely lost time to blog...
Anyways, I'll try and put in as much as I can on what happened to me the passed few days...
Jan. 27
It's the first day of our 'CAREER GUIDANCE PROGRAMME' (applause). No classes for me, but I have to attend and listen to some schools (some? Try using 'myriads'!) Those are supposedly giving us a 'better view of what the college life has'... and try to manipulate us into enrolling ourselves in their school. Hah! Caught you there huh? (^-^)/
Pero there were schools who actually got me thinking... parang maganda kasi sa school nila...
Jan. 28 (the tour)
'Yay! Away from school at last!!'
Not! Well, in a way I had some time away from school... get this, we had our 'campus tour' and went around the U-belt to try to habituate ourselves when we get into college. This, of course, is part of the 'career guidance program'...
FEU-East Asia. We were expecting an entrance exam, not a boring program... we had to endure one...two...three...or more hours of unbearably mind-numbing words from speakers that tried to make us enroll into a computer-based course. I wanted to do that, actually, but their speech made me think otherwise (b-o-r-i-n-g)...
At long last, we went to our next destination... GMA7 (kapuso!!). We were to watch 'mel&joey' and that required us to be in yellows and reds.
Yellow. I was wearing a yellow t-shirt (all FEU examinees had to, it's red for the non-takers). We waited for such a long time! And unfortunately, I forgot to bring lunch... initiate 'Operation Buraot'! heheh... I got to eat on the bus (thanks Ems! You're a lifesaver!), but a chicken and some rice ain't enough for a growing kid! (^-^)/ Enter the free food (and drinks mind you!). GMA7 gave free food to the people who watched their shows on the studio. I accepted. It was a meal of embotido (talaga? Parang giniling-na-pinatigas-muna-tapos-niluto-tapos-dinisguise-na-embotido) and rice. It was quite okay, judging from what it looked like.
I was totally hungry...
Anyways, I had a lot of fun waving the wavy things for the show. My friends and I kinda made a scene and waved our sticks upside down (and for my case, the 'HINDI' board!). Fun.
Tita Mel looked friendlier on TV...
Jan. 29
Last day of the career program. This time, they invited speakers for different courses. We were broken into small groups (according to our preferred courses) and started the program...
'College is different from blah-blah... UP Manila has more medical yadah-yadah... what do you expect from...?' that was all I understood from our speaker. Funny, you know, considering that she came from a communications-related course. One thing I've learned, no math in journalism! Not that I don't like math, I like algebra and geometry (got good grades), but trigo just ain't for me... or is it the teacher I don't like? (quiet, secret lang toh!) (^_^)/
That's it... well, that's it about the program... more news coming up shortly... got to take a break...
