To fill a void in my year...

Hello There!

It's been a while. I haven't posted for a while 'cause honestly, I just wanted to post stuff that might interest people. Thinking that, I didn't know how I could interest others knowing that my life has been in drought of new experiences. And if ever there are new ones, they're not experiences I could be so proud of. Nevertheless, it's been more than a year since my last post so an update may be good. Furthermore, it's my life anyway so whether you're interested or not, I'm not forcing you to read this but I hope you get something out of this post.

Let me start after last year's youth camp experience. Just like before, I went back to school for my second to the last semester of my college life. I thought it would be the same old story only with different new characters. Since my old classmates had already graduated before me, I thought that I would just be sitting in class and going home after class and then finally graduate. But it's not just that. Enrollment period came and I didn't know that I would be taking 2 destined classes that would change my life and how I expected the whole year to be.

I wouldn't talk in detail about how the whole sem went but I will tell you about each class. The first is Socsci 2. this class meant so much to me because it had been a class where I have learned a lot yet nothing about the subject itself. Confused? You'll understand why.

In the first day of classes, I didn't go to class because I got lazy. That's why I decided to go the week later. when I got to the Socsci 2 class the week later, I had been told that there was a homework and stuff to be passed and so the next meeting, I brought all requirements and passed them. The meeting after that, the teacher finally checked our attendance and that was the time I knew that I wasn't part of that class and was part of the class in the next room instead. So the next week came and I went to the right class. They said that there would be a film showing and exam after so as to keep up with the class, I went in. The next meeting came and the exam came. Fortunately, I was able to answer the test thanks to stocked knowledge. When I stood up to pass my paper, I noticed that the person beside me was a girl. So, I took a look at her face out of curiosity. At that moment, as I looked at her face, I knew right then and there, I would someday try to get to know her. Days passed and nothing happened. Until one day, I was assigned to report about Martin Luther. That day would be marked as a turning point of my life.

That day of my report, I didn't know the place that we would meet was changed. Aside from that, I came late. So when I got to the usual room, there were two girls that were also lost. one of them was the girl I had been talking about. so she told us that her friends said that the place was changed and so we went there. I went in and immediately did my report. As soon as I was done, I went to find a vacant seat. all the seats were occupied but there were two seats at the back that were vacant. one seat was beside a friend of mine and the other was beside my crush. Without any hesitation, I went to the seat beside my crush and asked her if I could sit beside her. she didn't mind and from then on, we started talking. We wouldn't see each other for a while after that but when we started to get to know each other more, we started hanging out. And after 5 months of hanging out, she said YES. Now, we've been together for 4 months and I hope it goes on for longer. :)

Now for the 2nd destined class that I took that sem. It was called SP or Special Problem. Each Computer Science student was supposed to take that class which was like a thesis for us. It was supposed to be taken on the 2nd semester but I thought I would take it earlier in order for me to start earlier and just get an INC and finish it on the 2nd sem so as to have a longer time making it. However, I was planning on taking an adviser that I would like. The funny thing is, all the other SP advisers were full and there was one whom most of the people didn't want to be under because he usually gives students a hard time. Just as expected, it  took me two semesters to finish my SP. And just as expected I had a hard time with the teacher.

Although I really had a hard time, I never regretted being under that teacher. I was able to learn a lot that I would soon use in the so called "Real World". And I would never forget the teacher who may not have taught me directly in words but has placed the right barriers so that I would not cross the wrong roads.

Now, After 5 semi-enjoyable and semi-depressing years of college, I am officially one of UP Cebu's proud alumni. I did it! my hard work and determination paid off!

Now is where I stop making the blueprints and start building my dreams.

To start, I have entered into Real Estate business. Although I haven't gotten much from it, this is only one of the few things that would help me achieve my dreams. Soon, I will be finding a job that would start my career and from then on, I hope to find more experiences to share.

Thank you very much for reading my thoughts. I hope you learned something from it. If you want to check out my business, you may click the links at the side and contact me for details.

Never give up guys! As long as the world keeps moving, so should you!

God bless you all! :)

For a special someone

 Hi,     I know I have been the worst this past year. I know you haven't felt the same way since the pandemic hit and so did I. I thought that giving you space and waiting for you to come around was the right thing for us. I thought that you would become more independent and that you would learn that you are very strong and you can do anything. I thought that giving you the space will help you go back to being with your friends and enjoying your life without me. Most especially, I thought that when you had time to let yourself free a little, I would just be here waiting for you with all the things that you've learned by yourself and having to experience a new you.     I, too, had plans to change over that time. I wanted to enjoy being with my family and experience how it's like to live with them for a longer period of time. We were never in the same house for so long and I wanted to savor that time before I lived away from them. I wanted to make sure they were l...

"Sana all" may not be good at all

       I woke up this morning asking myself, "why are people not contented with what they have?" Why do we always find something we don't have and try to force ourselves that we should have that? In an era full content, why is there so much discontent?      I realized that the phrase "sana all" is a big part of this. We often see this phrase in comments on social media where everyone shares "the good stuff". We see a couple's nice photo and the first comment is "sana all". We see a woman in a bikini on the beach with the caption, "sunkissed", "beach please", or "vitamin sea", and the first comment is "sana all". We see a person's photo in a foreign country with a historical land mark and the first comment is "sana all".       I get it. It's supposed to make the person in the photo feel good about themselves. However, does the person saying it feel any better? "Sana all" i...

MMX

Hello guys! it's themovingAUNNE again! but today's post isn't about a new place I've been to but a new experience for me. August 13 -14 was Cookout MMX  and for me, it was a really nostalgic new experience. Nostalgic because I felt like I went back to becoming a freshman. I never told you that freshman year in college, I joined the sayawan competition and ever since then, I never joined a cookout competion- not until yesterday. yesterday, I joined three different segments in cookout. First, I joined the kantahan segment where I met new friends and found confidence in myself. kantahan was my favorite part of the night because I was amazed on how my supported me and cheered me on. I really appreciated how they let their voices loose just to scream my name. I found friends that I know would be there for me to support me. thank you guys.  the second segment was the rampahan segment. I wasn't so into it though because I got tired since it was already almost 3:00 when ...
