3 days from now, I’ll drive into the second chapter of my college life. I will be a freshman no more. Maybe, I’ll penetrate through harder subjects of my course.
As I depart summer, let me share to you what I’ve attained on being a BSMT1. I didn’t just wade through chemistry stuffs, principles of Newton, body systems, etc. Those are indeed principles of life.
I ascertained that good grades cannot be attained without force. It is just the same case as Isaac Newton’s law of interaction- “In every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction”. As I cleaned my room last week, I glanced over my first sem testpapers, answer sheets and blue book. I just laughed upon getting over those stuffs because my marks weren’t really good. Honestly, I wasn’t really doing well in my studies that semester. I didn’t study for I thought that everything will be easy. I just relied on my “stock-knowledge”. There’s a question that came to my mind- What if I’ve done better? I might be a pro in academics like what I’ve achieved in my high school.
Another thing is regarding other people. I’ve met different people with unique and extraordinary character traits I’ve never had before. I wrecked upon knowing that grade-conscious persons still exist in college. I confronted a person (I will not just mention the name) whose traits that cannot be understand. He treated me as a “wonder-woman” who has the ability to vanish his dilemmas in just one click. Oh my, I don’t really have that super power. I even wish to have that. I even have some mess that I haven’t fixed by myself.
I also met people who are great. There were teachers who inspired me to study more. There’s also a person who became my idol and became my virtual brother. I learned not just academic techniques from him but also moral thoughts. I remember a notable quote from him – “True friends are like black pearls, they are hard to find”. Yes, that’s really true.
Honestly, it’s really hard to adjust as I entered college. First of all, there are changes that were hard to accept just like going out to school just by myself. It was really different when I was in high school wherein I had been with CRIFTs (Tinjoy, Roch, Ayiin, Yang2x). There were even moments wherein I think about them. It’s really different. I know some just befriended me in college for a purpose. Twas then I woke up at an instance in knowing my purpose in going to college. I’m going to college for it’s my stepping stone for my dreams. I must work hard to have a brighter future then. I must not forget my purpose in taking up medical technology.
I’m thankful that during my first year, I knew myself more. I knew who I am. Honestly, I am not yet quite sure about my decision for my future. Kung sa math pa, I’m not yet done with my solution and I haven’t arrived to the final answer. There will be a time that I’ll push through that. I HOPE God will give me guidance..
FIGHTING :]
