After a few weeks, finally I am
writing again on this deserted blog. I have wanted to let out my thoughts since
the first day of the second semester began.
Primarily I just wish to “rant”
about my class schedule. I currently have three laboratories in one week. What
do you mean by laboratories you ask? Well, since I am an HRM student there is
this special part of my curriculum wherein we are required to take two
culinary-related courses (International Cuisine and Catering) for six hours,
one on Monday and another on Friday. Then the other lab is a course that will
teach us about Microsoft Opera (a computer system for guest reservations and
booking in hotels) which we will attend for five hours at least. Three hours
for the laboratory and two hours for the lecture.
I will be trying to survive those
for this semester. Last time we had two food and beverage laboratories
(Cafeteria Operations and Beverage Management) and I couldn’t even handle those
well. I am not sure if I am great enough
to juggle three. It’s crazy I tell ya! It will be crazy like before, coming soon!
On the lighter side though, on Tuesdays, my dismissal is earlier than the usual
and then my class the next day starts in the afternoon. Compared to my last
class schedule, this semester is beneficial. I could catch up on my sleep for
those days with early departures from school. I could also do deadly projects
during those days.
So I cannot really decide on what I
should feel about this semester, if I could actually say the statements above
are considered rants. One thing is for sure though; it will be much more
challenging than the previous sems since this is one of the crucial periods in
my whole college life. I don’t know what is ahead of me but I’ll just brace
myself. I have to do good, just keep my grades fairly high and learn a lot which I should not simply forget after the academic years ends.
Moving on, generally this week has
been a slight headache here and there. Professors gave their orientations, “warned”
us about our future killer projects and events. Commuting stresses were forever
present; trying to get along with people with different personalities… What’s
new? Seeing cute guys around the campus probably spiced up my week a bit, still
I won’t see those guys often; actually I might not see them at all. There are
thousands of students in the university; there is a one in a million chance I’ll
see them again, unless fate is nice to me and will give me another glance at
the ‘eye candies’.
I guess I wanna share this guy I
came across with last Tuesday, November 6 to be exact. He was an Engineering student;
I can’t make a confident estimation what year he was in, maybe fourth year or the
same as my year (third year)? Anyhow, so we were leaving school already since
classes ended and we were walking along this roofed-pathway near the building
of the Engineering students and there were these two men (he was with a friend I think) who popped out of
nowhere (well not really) and came strolling towards us. I usually notice guys,
who “stand out” from the crowd, someone my eyes drift to first. After that he’ll
be the only person my vision is focusing on (the people around him would all be
a blur). So the cute Engineering student my eyes captured, had fair skin,
somewhat brown artificially dyed hair, he was chinky-eyed and well, tall. I was
not sure if I was actually smiling because I saw someone ‘probably my type’ or
I was talking to my friend about something cheerful and my grin was plastered
on my face. I am not certain what I truly looked like at that moment. I don’t
know if I should be glad about this because he was beaming back at me (or am I
hallucinating?). Maybe I seemed weird or maybe the feeling is mutual? I wanna
believe the latter but then I am afraid to assume. Although for the sake of experiencing
all those giddy chills down my spine again (after a long time) I suppose it was
the latter? I hope so.
Now that I am done with that… Wait,
that pretty much sums up what I want to say… Kidding! Well, seriously though I
don’t have anything else to say (sleepy as of the moment). So I’ll just have to wrap things up. I’ll see
you guys on my next blog post. Right?
