new life? new me?

This is the first time I blogged again since I entered college (and I say that like i'ts been a really long time when the truth of the matter is that only a month had gone by since I first entered the University). So many things have changed, so many new people met, and so many memories now flutter by occasionally. Maybe I have changed too, maybe not.
It's really hard to cope up with the stress of college life. No one's there to check up on the class once in a while, to ask if every thing's okay or if some one's missing. I sort-of miss the nagging teachers, advisers, principals, and faculty members my High School used to have, it's hard to admit, but it's true. I still can't seem to fully grasp the concept of professors just letting us do our own things during class - not bothering to call our attention when we're not listening - or of students who choose not to attend classes just because they now can.
It's really tough to enter college when you're not prepared for a heavy workload. Imagine going to a University known for its bright students and academic superiority (not to brag) among the other universities in the Philippines. We have more difficult subjects to master, broader concepts we have to understand, and a wider country we have to serve - after all, we owe our education to them, to you. But that's the responsibility of students like me who studies at the University of the Philippines, we not only have to prove ourselves worthy of the high views of the common people, but we have to humble ourselves and serve the same people who look at us highly.
It's true that college could really change people, - their lives, their views on specific topics, even their perspectives in life - but behind the book-based effects of education, one who enters college would be moulded into the person they'll become in the future not by just what is taught inside the four corners of the classroom but also by the experiences of everyday college life.
From now on, I'd be able to post daily and make this a true updated blog. :) Come with me on my journey as I venture the wider spectrum of the world here in Manila. Kisses*!
