Dum Dee Dum... I am not a super hero neither am i spiderman. I am going to save the world... like as if you would believe. I am a maniac. I came from an outer space which is filled with water. I learn swimming at the age of zero.I wail like a cry baby. I crawl like spiderman, i fly like superman, i drive like batman. I live in wonderland. Rugrats is my friend, so is peter pan.
it's been a while since i last posted on this blog and a lot of things had happened already... i've had a lot of experiences from the past weeks and it's all worth it afterall, whether good or bad it still brought me something beneficial and taught me things i know i'll not learn in class. i've been really dependent both on my parents and friends but this time around i have proved to myself and to others as well that i can live independently, though there were times that i'm missing them and the way they put things on the right track. the fieldwork in Kalinga became very useful to me not just in academic matter but also in a real life matter, yes it trained me to become independent and it taught me a lot of real life things which helped me grow and become a better person. i'm not saying that i am not self-sufficient before it's just that i think i am not yet mature enough for my age and enough for my future... i've learned to adjust most especially if the environment calls for it, be considerate, be more appreciative, more affectionate, and to make the best out of some worst things. :) i am so glad because i didn't give up on Anthropology, all those chances opened my eyes and took away my bias, judgemental, preconception and all attitude. :) many doesn't know what my course is really all about, they thought it's just all about bones, caves, hominids, tribes and stuff... they just didn't know it's waaay more than that. well of course i am just giving justice to what i am taking up right? but another thing is that i'd like you to be aware of it. in the Bible it says that God created us, and i have nothing against that because i am a true blooded Christian and a believer. but in Science we came from the species of monkeys and they were our ancestors, i am not telling you to believe that because i myself wouldn't want to accept that our great lolo and stuff is a homo erectus or whatever. :) these are few of what my course is about, but basically what we are really interested to is the cultural perspective of the people. their beliefs, rituals, ethics, custom and traditions because it would determine where they came from... where we came from. we are what we believe in and our culture mirrors ourselves. Anthro is a combination of history, sociology and psychology. :) very few are taking up this course because of lack of awareness and also it's more of a passion than a career. most of my classmates were surprised when i pursued this course, they still couldn't believe i learned to love this course, survived the fieldwork and now soon to graduate. :) expect the unexpected right? well i was also challenged by those people and the course itself. being in Anthro is a fulfillment, i am studying and learning for myself and be able to help others at the same time... at least i know i am not just doing this for my own but for the people involve around me as well. :)
hehe just another rants and raves... actually i really have nothing to write about when i was just starting this entry, couldn't find a story to begin with and to tell actually. lol. everything just went on and on as i was typing. well at least it has a sense in a way... Anthropology is one of the important things in my life and one of my character-shaping tools. :) In Anthro, boredom became a quest and a journey... a life-changing for me.
classes has started though still in a sit-back-and-relax stage... we're not yet starting the lecture and all so it's still enjoyable. lol. well i promised to myself (this time no more broken promises...) that i'll be really hardworking and patient this time, for my last semester... hopefully. no more lates and absences as much as possible and studies first before ANYTHING else. i'll remind myself that from time to time to make sure... :) my first week was great and my classes are all good, hopefully. i have some friends narin in some of my classes, sounds like a good start right? anyway, it's our UAAP season already and i am looking forward to February, our schedule of games. i am now also concentrating on the training and really hopeful to bring back my strength, endurance, speed and skills. actually i'd like to beat that and bring out the very best in me... all out na. :) i am now serious in my studies and badminton career more than ever... if only i'll be given a chance to excel more, much better. lovelife has been unlucky to me so maybe my luck is in studies and career instead. :)
woohoo! long weekend... though i have few assignments... oh well. i'm still happy :) i am really having fun living in a boarding house... it's inside the campus and very accessible. it's not a problem to me anymore because i've learned to live like that since i was in Kalinga, no more worries. :) anyway, i am planning to buy a sun sim, free call and text kasi if sun to sun... but i'll not change my number, it will be just a spare. ;) info lang. hehe.
gawd! miss posting on my blog... haba tuloy ng entry ko ngayon. lol.
