Finally~!
After 3 long weeks of scholastic work, I finally had the mood to write a post. Mood's lacking that's why there is no interesting and latest post here. HOHO. Well anyways, I'll share with you guys what I had so far this school year.
BUSY.
You got the term. I am the Public Relations Officer of the Institute of Brilliant Information Technology Students (iBITS) this school year. You may ask how could this be. I ran for this position out of curiosity. I never been an active officer since I was in elementary or high school. Besides, I am on the track of achieving an active standing in our college, so why not be a candidate? In fact, I claim myself as a catalyst of change, this may be a stepping stone.
I thought being an officer of an active organization is nothing. But when I experienced attending meetings, a pile of responsibilities waiting before me, I realized that this is really a serious matter. No games, no jokes. Everything is a big deal.As a part of iBITS, we are assigned to do a routinary task. 2 officers will be a student volunteer in the CCMIT Chairperson's Office. What volunteer, you may ask. We will do the things a student assistant does. As in everything. But here's the twist. WE AREN'T PAID. That's why the volunteer term is there. It's really sad on my part. I love money anyway. HAHAHA. Whoops! Another privilege. We are allowed to go home any time we want to, since we are only volunteers. That's what my co-officer told me. But my shame makes me stay hours longer than my intended dismissal *chuckles*.
Being an officer is a tough job. But I really had a great time. I made new friends in the person of our adviser and my co-officers. :)) This year's filled with more busy days and real-time fun! :))

But that's not all. Being an active member of an active organization really didn't make my school world go round. We have to be realistic people!
A college student must be focused on existence of classes, lectures and quizzes. And that's why I'm asking my guardian, GOD, for help. I really have to get better grades this year since there' s a nuisance existing in the college. Due to the fact that the freshmen students per section in our college already increased to the number of 70, every student from every year are entitled to have a HANDS-ON FINAL EXAMINATION this year. This is implemented to see who are the capable ones to live up with the college. That pressured me and my fellas.
Though that announcement served as a death threat to most students, it served as a motivation for me. A challenge I have to win.
But it will only happen if I study hard. That's the reason why I'm spending my time doing assignments rather than talking, researching rather than daydreaming. Plus, I really have big dreams for myself. It will only happen if I really dedicate myself in getting good grades.
Our subjects for this sem include:
-- Programming (COBOL)
My senpais said that this subject is boring. My professor said this programming language is really in demand in banks nowadays. There are only few COBOL programmers in the country, that's why if you're one of them, you'll get cold, hard cash baby! IT'S MONNNEEYY BABBBYY!
-- Discrete Mathematics
The truth table. Whoo! I can claim myself as a BS Information Technology Major in Truth Table student! Yaattaah! This makes me crazzzyy!
-- Computer Systems Organization
The sequel to our computer maintenance subject. Our prof said we will simulate an alarm clock as a final exam. Interesting!
-- Politics and Governance with Philippine Constitution
Now that's more I like it! One of my dream subjects is already offered. This is the chance to learn the laws that will throw The Red Circle!! :))
-- Statistics and Probability
Mean. Median. Mode. ^_^
-- Physical Education (Swimming)
Okay. We're swimming alright. It sucks. I don't want to be seen in a swimsuit. Eeeeww!
-- Speech Communication
I enjoyed this subject so far. It really enhanced my speaking and thinking skills through those jams! < JAMS = EXTEMPO >
-- History
We are asked to memorize the whole map of the Philippines. How interesting. Wooo.
Self-Study Subject:
-- Nihongo
This is supposed to be our elective next year. Since I am excited, I'm studying it myself. Konnichiwa minna-san! :))
If there is a subject I missed out. Sorry. ^__^
Whooaaa! I'm still not finished with my Discrete Math assignment! Aaarrrggh!
SILENCE AND CHANGE.
Many said I have changed. They said I am not the same old girl they knew. I am already silent and unpredictable. That's why they said. I am in no position to explain myself since I never changed. They only claimed that fact. There is no proof. Even if they try to make me realize what I am now, it isn't worth explaining. Okay. I already tried explaining myself to them, but they won't listen. There's nothing more to say.
Besides, what's wrong with being silent? It isn't really like the old me, because the old me is scandalous. I came to realize that if the words that tumble out my mouth possess irrelevant ideas, I would rather not talk. I don't want to talk about nonsense. But some told me that it is awkward to see me like that. Looky here. I want to change the people's perception of me being scandalous okay? I am still myself anyway. I just want to act my age, and I want to act in the situation I'm in properly. That's it.
PLUUUSSS! I don't have time to talk with people I don't have to talk anything about. What would I say to them? I think it's better if I stay out of their business rather than to serve as a display in their lives. Another, I am busy. I'm an officer and I'm a student. Being an officer is tough work, being a student is a lot tougher work.
I guess all I really need from people, especially from these people who claims this belief, a little understanding, ONEGAI. I am sorry if I caused them pain or whatsoever. Just a little understanding will do. Besides, it still me, AtSilentVersion.
