I used to think, maybe college life isn't for me. NOT! College has it's downsides: complicated lessons, extremely hard quizzes, short sleeping time, strict "terror" teachers [some of them], painful heels [ugh!], but I have to admit, it also has its own perks: long luch breaks, air-conditioned library, easy trip to malls, great food, and [most importantly] campus cutie overload [LoL].
How am i ever going to get used to tornado of a life? [0.o?]
For now, I'm grateful that what comes along with sclhool is the word I like to call my "Protective Circle," - my FRIENDS.
Most of these guys I've only met here in college [some i've known since high school]. They are the ones who give me that sense of assurance that I'm not alone in this so-called tornado-like life in college.
"If they can do it, so can I," is a saying that keeps floating back and forth, side to side in my concious mind whenever I see my fellow classmates. They might not know it, but they're one of the people who give me courage to face my decisions and its outcomes.
College is a life i want to survive in. I want to gain more friends, experience things i've never thought of doing, make new memories, live life and enjoy every second of it. I don't want any what ifs and if onlys in my life anymore. People only live once in this world. Life's too precious to just let it pass me by.
But, honestly, I don't think I'll be able to live by the motto, "live life as if it were you're last", 'coz let's face it, once life hits us hard with tasks and doubts, we'd want the day to end instantly and make a fresh start for the next day, we might even wish to go back to when life was as simple as our A-B-Cs. I will, however, try to live my life thinking as if no day will ever be the same. Time is GOLD, I'm frequently told, and when it passes you by, you'd regret the time you've wasted.
You know, I worry too much in college, which, i realize, is only natural for a weak-knee'd freshie such as myself. Now, if i would worry, i'd lock it up inside and throw away the golden key, overflowing it with wonderful memories about life, love (if there are any) and friends.
Time to split. I'll take my queue from our batch's valedictorian and my fellow classmate. "Graduates, I'm ready for college. Adelante!" And I sure am! :]
