Escaping Reality
One thing I've learned in my on-going coarse years of premed
study is to survive by giving myself a time for a break –a very essential way
to unwind from my convoluted information meandering in my head. I believe that
I am now in a transitional stage wherein I need to learn to embrace my course,
pouring my heart for my passion in life and appreciate my limited days in
college by maximizing every single bit of it. I wanted to have every single
moment to be full of awesome experiences and life changing memories, because
you never know what is next for us. Not that I become less serious with my
academics but I wanted to hold on to what truly matters for me now.
College for me is never an avenue to compare myself to others, I am not really that good in class, I am almost and always late in class, I do have a lot of absences with my lectures, I miss some of my quizzes, I don't take down notes, I always procrastinate but I become a better person with my best squads (thanks to them). Gone were the days that I need to dwell too much with my inch-thick books and understanding the chiral structures of bio molecules. Understanding the physiological innervations of nerves to defecation, sleeping with my brown formalin-scented book, making diagrams of phospholipid bilayers, memorizing the origin and insertion of my cat's muscular system and overthinking of what will I become after graduation. It doesn't matter for me now if I forgot those specifics of biology, what truly counts is that I and my mentors made me who I wanted to be and that is to be the best person I wanted. The experience, integrity, and discipline make it more important rather than those myriad concepts I’ve been through. Hence, I can still go back on them anytime because I am only a human –commits mistakes and not perfect.
A Flashback
I
grew up as a child who was never been active physically and never been too much
exposed to sports or recreational activities, that is why it is evident [maybe]
from my physical structure, that I am too skinny for a college student. Though
that’s maybe the case, I did engage also for some of the activities of my grade
school. I attended some backyard camps and jamborees of my elementary days.
Sulquiano, Dingras, is really a good site for mountain climbers and cave explorers, it is a very memorable place for me though. A place wherein we had our grade school camp, a place where I conquered my fear of heights, my first mountain hike and the first time ever i was separated from my family for four days. It was a very unforgettable experience for me, that's why when we decided to go for a hike I was more than excited, coz finally, I shall witness again the breath-taking scenery for the second time after seven years.

I, We are Awesome
What more can I say, I am so glad that finally we had time for another
adventure for this year. I am just so much attached with my MP squad, though we
have individually struggles of schedules and ever-thoughtful parents [with
inside job negotiations hahaha] we always meet at the right timing. I have
never ever been with these kind of caring friends (siblings) especially when
they tryna raid you at your own crib in an instant (power ah) for an adventure.
Though I am a person with complex group of friends, I have my TsquaredBcubed,
my C&Friends, my When I met You Baguio people, my Architect/Engineers Club,
my Jeepney Buddies, my bio family and others I am still there for them too. And I
think that's awesome.
