It's a real starfish!
My summer consisted of PI 100, Physics 72.1, a week of thesis adviser stress, and a week back home.
I'm glad to finally be finished with Physics (wala na akong Physics for the rest of my lifeee! Woohoo!). PI 100 was way more stressful than I ever thought it would be. Mostly because 35% of our grade depended on 3 purely objective quizzes. Taking into account the number of readings we had to read for that class, it was hell. By the end of summer almost everyone in class was failing the 35%, so Ma'am was kind enough to give us the option to make a make-up paper - an analysis of PI 100 as a whole. I knew what I wanted to write, but I struggled because I had to write in Filipino. Needless to say, it was only a page long and had a lot of english words with quotation marks (good thing Ma'am prefers short and straight-to-the-point papers!).
I spent the week after that running around school hounding different Biology professors and begging asking them if they were still accepting thesis advisees. Safe to say I got acquainted with a lot of professors in a really short time. I also learned na masungit yung IB security guard. :|
When I got home, I spent a few days in Iloilo with my cousins before heading over to Roxas and Boracay for the weekend. Boracay was fun :D We went swimming, helmet diving, and rode a banana boat. I wish we could've gone snorkeling too, though. Maybe when we go back for my cousin's wedding in October? Haha
Now I'm back in Manila, and enrollment starts tomorrow. My form5A has a huge "Graduating" (in red ink!) plastered on the top right, and I realize I'm about to start my 4th year in college. Augh I feel old.
