So since this also allows everyone to do some BLOGGING and just yesterday, I thought (ain’t sure actually if twas yesterday or the other day) of having my old ways back and make a BLOG again saying all of what’s really rockin’ my boat now, butt-slapping me, etc. Allow me. Allow me, friends. Allow me, TUMBLR. >:)
And yes, I admit I’ve gone out of the box these past few days. ‘Mean I’ve agreed on doing something I do not always do. Well, for me, that’s going away from my comfort zone. I’ve said yes, and pretty much I’ve took risks. As Jela Ramirez, I have a lot of things to do, and a lot of responsibilities to take note of. Everyone knows that I’m just getting used to be an Assumptionist, though not really the first year of being in college, well technically. But nonetheless, I’m still in my first year, in Assumption. :) I’m doing 2 advance subjects, that’s for 2nd year. So hell yeah, I’m kinda late with my original batch mates. :| But I’ve always put it on my mind that no matter what, AC should have me as a better student, wholly. :) ‘Cos for infinity, it isn’t my first year in college anymore, I knew I have to be more responsible now, especially I knew now the do’s and don’ts in college, etc. To cut it short, I wanna be in the DEAN’s EFFIN LIST! I dunno if that really works for you, guys. But that’s the only way I can say I’m a better student. Cos I really didn’t get into the honor’s class back in hs. I had my four years spent in RC just minding all of the fun (barkada) and my singing! HAHA. Funny. But it was really fun, to be able to share what I’ve got on stage was priceless! But the thing there was that I didn’t have the chance to concentrate well on my studies. I’ve became a mediocre in my academics. And for me, now’s the time! To shine! Haha. And just be good in every class that I’m taking. :) So CLASS STANDING, EXAMS, PROJECTS, etc? I want mine to be good, even perfect! :)
But my sense of loving my PASSION got me just a few weeks from now. I got into a contest called AC got talent, I joined with my other 2 beautiful block mates, Dea and Melissa. We were good. :)) But we lack confidence daw, facial expression, movement on stage. Well at least, I’m excused since I was the one playing the guitar for us while singing, kinda hard to move you know! :) But still, we won! THIRD PLACE. With the prize of P3,500. :) Not bad for starters :)
It didn’t stop me there. Here came the Rock You battle of the bands. Huh! We’ve practiced until twas super late at night & Guess what?
We didn’t won. Hahahaha!
And I’ve checked my schedule, I am missing a lot from school. And even my service to God, I was guilty that I became so busy and preoccupied not having been able to do my tasks, etc. I totally feel like I was close to my downfall. :| Especially in school, although I haven’t received my quiz paper yet, (which I took early morning after the battle and I haven’t studied well) I believe, I didn’t make it, I wasn’t proud of that. I may get a low score there and it really bugs me til now.
It got me thinking. That maybe, if I want to go somewhere. I should take a road going there. And not the other that’s not leading me to the place I’d want to be. I never said that I will stop the urge that’s running on me from doing MUSIC. But I guess, it’s just a lesson, that I have to know my priorities and stuff. It will still depend on my choice. :)
And for now, I chose to be back. As a simple student again, just listing my reminders and not missing any early class, and continuing to perfect quizzes. This is where I really found myself so happy. I just pray that God will help me do this. Anyway, school will just last few weeks from now, so ALL FOR THE BEST AND HIS GLORY!
