My College Life at Visayas State University Tolosa

 

          

          College has never been easy and it will never be. I thought senior high was the hardest not until I stepped forward to college. College is my first step in figuring out my future career. I've listened to others talk about their college years throughout my entire life and describe how college is meant to be "the greatest experience of your existence." I came to the conclusion that I needed to go to college in order to completely realize what it was like. My first few weeks at Visayas State University of Tolosa (face to face) were difficult and it truly put my strength to the limit (mentally and physically). Even though I am just in my second year of college, I already do experience being drained by overloaded school work but who am I to complain when basically I applied myself as a student and that is my responsibility to do.

            But even though college has been so rough for me, I am still grateful for having this opportunity to step forward because it means that I am closer to my so-called dream and it is something to be proud of.

            And to my classmates, BLOCK 18, thank you for having the best block ever. You are one of the reasons why my college life is bearable. “Walang iwanan, tayo'y uusad ng magkakasama.” that motto really suits us. If unity has an award, we truly deserve to have that award. 

        To my best friends CJ and Rochelle, an unexpected friendship had been made. l never really imagined myself being involved with both of you. You both are academically conscious while me (sometimes) not because I'm lazy (I truly mean it and obviously) but we do have the same humor and I love it. Thank you because both of you are really encouraging me to study every time there's a need to. 

           And to my other group of friends, Ate Precy, Mary Joy and Carl hahaha thank you because even though how stressful school work is, we take it easy and laugh it all out instead of stressing ourselves because it is how it is. “Lugi ka kun magpastress ka.” (very very us talaga hahaha) though I'm not with you the entire time but at least you never made me feel that I don't belong in the group. Always may balon na chika kay mga marites man hahaha. Thank you, guys! I really appreciate you all!

            I had never imagined having a new set of friends in college. I even told myself that it's okay to be a loner, so be it.

          To my instructors who helped me mold myself to be a better student, to correct what is to be corrected, and helped me to be an independent person. Thank you. I will never learn if no one taught me. 

            This experience may be hard as I go through the next steps but I know this will be worth it. The sacrifices that we are and we will go through are just a phase of our lives and we should treasure them until we reach our dreams together. 

Padayon, Viscans! aju!
