Let me tell you about my journey in college. As a student I was not the top of my class, I was not popular nor was I a heartthrob or some sort, no. I was that lazy student who doesn’t really care about high grades but the one who just wants to enjoy his college life. I’m a very lazy person especially when it comes to academics, I was even known to be always late or absent in class and yes I always cut class but get away with it (hahaha wag niyo ako tularan). And I think I mastered the art of being absent or late and not get in trouble. I just love to hang out in school and be with friends. But hey, I also see to it that I don’t fail any subject. I’m not smart but I’m street smart. *ching*

On the other hand, I was very active when it comes to non-academic matters. I think I tried a lot of things in my four years in college, iykwim (*wink*). I was a dancer, actor, artist, model and a leader but never a singer; I also played many sports like volleyball, football, softball, badminton and etc. but except basketball. But what I really worked hard for was being leader, and in my four years I dedicated most of my time to the school org UPV Junior Executive Society. I was able to hone a lot of my skills because of that org and in my last year in college I became the president of that organization, and I can say I definitely left a mark in my term of service.

A lot of things can happen in a day what more in four years. They said “College is one of the best time of your life.” and I can absolutely attest to that. It’s where you’ll discover a lot of things in life and especially yourself. It is a microcosm of life, a glimpse of reality. But college will only be fun depending on how run it, and it boils down to your decisions, the people around you and you.

Here are some of my tips to enjoy college:

Always take a chill pill.

Never be afraid to take a leap of faith.

Discover what your really passionate about.

Know your limits and priority.

Its okay to say NO.

Keep an open mind.

Give yourself some alone time.

Make a lot of friends but choose who to trust.

Just really enjoy your it.

My college wouldn’t be complete with these gals. The four people who I can trust and lean on any time.
