So while we were walking around the campus, we ran into Sir Kiko. And really, I just love how Sir Kiko always has some stories to share. We just talked about cameras for a bit and he also made kwento about his Film 110 experiences (which makes me want to take up Film 110 as well!). And while we were there, Sir Kitty shows up out of nowhere and... just imagine. HAHAHA. So I guess, after a while we all had to go on with our own stuff and we parted (wat wording).

We went to the guidance office and took an Advice for Today. What I got was: It's not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are. I spent all of the idle moments during my visit thinking about it. And, really, an'dami kong naisip.

One is about my interest in applying for colleges abroad. Since High School, I've been aiming for it. Though, more of like, Post-grad studies. But recently, I researched about schools and possible programs to aim for after finishing college. Instead of finding interesting postgrad studies (AKA not-so-nosebleed-inducing-programs), I found a bunch of really interesting undergrad programs. And some dual degree programs. So there's really this thing in me that wants to take the SAT's and send my applications to those colleges and just be happy with my life, because hey I'm taking up this program that I'm pretty sure that I want (...or maybe not so sure either).

I guess one of the most relevant intervention to those plans was that I had to pay for my own SAT's and, if ever I get good scores, mailing them to the Universities for application. I really tried saving up for it, but I didn't make it to the scheduling, either.

And I remember what Sir Kiko said, "Stay in Chem Eng'g!" And then it's like some sort of realization hit me. Maybe, I'm not really meant to go overseas for undergrad studies. Or if I am, maybe not yet. Maybe when I get to Third Year. But I guess circumstances are leaning towards no. In Econ, Sir Vlad taught us that if ever we find a problem too complex, we should break it down to simple ones, and just go back to the basics. And I guess that also helped me. Less than a semester in college has put too many ideas in my head. Let alone High School. So where do I go? My answer? Childhood.

I remembered that as a kid, I wanted to study in THE Philippine Science High School and in THE University of the Philippines. So I thought that I should pursue my childhood dreams. Those childhood dreams, at least. And maybe, just make sure that this choice I'm making will be worth it.

Agh, I'm so scatter-brained.

//Some other feelings

So I accompanied my friend to the Third Floor Auditorium to help him look for his stuff. And really, it was super chaotic up there, but it was nice seeing people have their group shots taken. Our batch's group pictorials were waaaaay different, but the view made me miss my batch just the same. It made me miss being in High School altogether.

After battling through the way-too-crowded-I'd-die-if-I-were-claustrophobic Third Floor Auditorium, we were just happy to experience some space right outside. And I think I was legit skipping around (but IDC there were only a bunch of 2014 kids and I was too happy to care about being judged). So like what I used to do, I just walked 'round and 'round the Third Floor hallways. I sneak a peep into every classroom (and YES I found people being lovey-dovey and stuff), until we found a pretty nice classroom to stay in. The really awesome thing about it was that it happened to be the Jade room. Like, after taking pics inside the classroom, I was supposed to take a photo of the field from the window when I noticed that smiley face on the window (but I still didn't take a pic of it booooooo).

So we went on walking around the Third Floor when people I know started showing up. There weren't really a lot of them, though. But it was really nice seeing them, it made me feel like a High School student again. Like, I was in Third Year again. And it felt weird because I was excessively vain at that time so.... And my companion wanted me to have a photo with Singson! I know he has reasons and I have my reasons to refuse, but in the end we took that photo pa rin. Though I wish all the trouble was worth it.

 And can I say, it was really fun hanging out with Anton. An hour has always been too short for us. I really thank Joshua for introducing me to this guy. One of the best b-friends I have, 'cause he's just so good at being both (as in a b and a friend). Oh oh while we were walking he just said, "I really don't get your taste in guys" and I'm like whaaa---? And he said, "Well, he's nice, I'll give him that." And the conversation went on until he was able to make me say "yes" when he asked if I liked this certain person. Well I guess my answer wouldn't really make much difference, except that I'd be lying if I said no. Okay, mega-sharing.
