So I've been staying at my condo with my teammates for two weeks already. And I must say, I am HOMESICK.
I asked for a condo from my dad for two reasons. First is that so I will not be late for my volleyball training everyday. My training starts at exactly 6am everyday except weekends. Eh nahihiya ako kay dad na ihatid ako everyday ng ganung ka aga, and If I leave QC by 5am I will still be late because the MRT and LRT will operate by 530am pa. The second reason is for me to have a place I can chill everytime I feel tired from training. I have long breaks and busy mornings so I really need a place to boost my energy back again.
I'm enjoying my stay there. I can handle my time the way I like it. I can do everything I want and still get enough rest for my trainings. I can go where ever I want and I can feel how life will be in the future away from your parents. hahaha The down side is that, you will feel homesick. I don't know if its just the start or it will be forever or I haven't adjusted in my new society. All I know is that I miss the place I call home. I miss the bed I usually take forgranted. I miss the food that mom serves everyday. I miss this computer. I miss the moments where you can be tamad of doing anything and just stay at home. The feeling of protection being inside these walls. I miss watching TV without anyone dictating you what to watch. I miss my privacy. The feeling of having everything you want and most important I miss my family. Intense, I miss them.
I never realized how important this house is to me until now. I love this place and leaving it behind is very sad. But that's life, I wanted this so I need to face it. So since I am back here for the weekend, I will maximize my stay. I will do all the things that will satisfy me. I'll make kalat everywhere and do the things I can't do while I am at my condo. hehehehe I miss you house.

And It All Gets Better In Time
So I'm Back.
I'm back to the old me. Not the magulo marvin but the new and improved marvin. hehe Although sometimes I still go back to DLSU but I manage to discipline myself to go to class. And I've been doing my homeworks ahead of time. I am not cramming anymore. hahaha Most of the time also, I've been the leader of my group in classes. hahaha So I'm feeling responsible lately. hehe I hope I can do this for the rest of the term, but I claim that I can do this and I will be better. =)
Classrooms
I really missed the feeling of being inside a classroom. The feeling of strangeness and loneliness. The feeling of being trapped inside that cold chamber for an hour. The good thing is that in everyclass I happen to know someone. Some from the Volleyball team and old aquintances, some new friends and other a block mate of mine when I was still in DLSU. hahaha so the feeling of lonliness is quickly evaporating. hahaha
Volleyball
When I first joined the volleyball team, I only knew 3 people aside from the coaches. They used to be my batchmates back in first year and a new try-out like me. But now, I know them all. hahaha dapat lang. After our rigorous training we usually go to the locker room together and eat lunch after class. My only dilemma now is that I'm not the player that I used to be. I'm not as good as I used to be. Well, I was expecting that since I rested for almost a year. So I'm having a hard time to get back to my old playing self. But I know I can do it. So wish me luck. hehehe
Condo
I do have a condo na. I'm sharing it with 3 people. 2 teammates of mine and the other is a Prof. who used to ba a volleyball player as well. I did this because of our volleyball practice. It's from 6am to 9am everyday except weekends. Eh since I live in Q.C., I will be having a hard time to wake up early and not be late for training. The other reason is that nahihiya ako sa dad ko. I don't want to bother him everyday just to give me a ride to CSB. So we decided to get me a condo. I love having a crib near your school. hahaha You can rest if you have time and you can also cook your own food if you want to save money. haha
School
Well school is fun. haha I missed it a lot. The feeling of having a responsibility to go to class, they feeling of having a tambayan., the feeling of meeting new friends and the feeling of a student. hahaha My only problem is that since I am new to this school, I sometimes get lost. haha typical first year. Another is that sometimes I dont have friends or a group that I can hang out with. The good thing is that I am a memeber of the Volleyball team, If not for them I will become a loser and I am not used to that situation. hahaha But I know in time, since I am friendly, I'll get to know a lot of friends. hehe
To sum it all up. The first eight days of school has been fun and life changing. Although I haven't yet been able to adjust with my new surroundings and new activities, I know in time I can do it.

I'm Happy
Alright. On Wednesday is the day that I have been waiting for for the longest time. This is the moment. Back to school. Taft here I come. hahaha I will invade Taft again. hahaha
Ever since I got my acceptance letter, I have been sentimental about the fact that I'm leaving my Bum life na. Although I enjoyed most of the eight months I have been telling myself that I should have maximized time. I should have applied for a part time job or things that can make me busy. I just stayed at home, in the comfort of my bed and the availability of food. haha Bum kung Bum talaga. haha
Pero. I was watching Mel and Joey last night, Joey De Leon delivered an inspirational line stating "Time you enjoyed wasting, Is not wasted time.". So tinamaan ako. hahaha No matter how you wasted your time as long as you were happy doing it, ay Kay lang. hahaha Basta you are happy. So the senti moments, disappeared. I'm Happy.
I thank God for giving me happiness for the pass eight months. Although these months have been hard for me, I know you never left my side. You still make me smile. You gave me wisdom to realize and analyze everything. You gave me strength to stand up and move on. You set me free from depression and made me a stronger person. I could not have overcome these months without you. And as I enter this new journey, I know that you will never leave me and I know that you will guide me. Thank you Lord! You are the best!

tormented upbeat
Being able to handle time is fun. You can do whatever you like, sleep all day without worrying about tomorrow and control life like its never ending. Being a bum definitely was fun. The funny thing is that when you are a bum you want to do something in your life but when the moment that life goes back on track you suddenly want to stop time and wish that you stay in that moment a little bit longer. Time is like an alarm clock, it buzzes on your desired hour. Marks the end of yesterday and a sign of a fresh start. Time is not forever, it starts at one and ends at twelve.
Eight months of relaxation is to be equivalent to ten days. Ten days na lang before I go back to my old life of studying and being busy. I feel sad because I did everything I wanted without worrying about anything. Not worrying about time and feeling carefree. I'll definitely miss my sleepless nights, DVD marathon, Book marathon, part time jobs, tele-novelas, net browsing and everything I did just to keep myself entertained. In Ten days these things will be lessened and eventually will be forgotten.
In ten days my school will start. It indicates a new beginning for me. A fresh start. A new life. In just ten days the months of greiving will finally disappear. The life of being a bum will finally be a life of a busy man. The book and DVD marathons will be changed into research papers and film viewings. Sleepless nights transforms into tiring days. Part time jobs evolves into On the Job Trainings. Tele-Novelas changes into Foreign Laws and Languages. In ten days a three hundred sixty degree turn will happen and I don't know if I can do it. All I know is that I want to do it.
Tormented and Upbeat. Two different words combined into my emotions and is making the last days of my vacation blissful and blue.haha

Busy Busy Busy
"Busy" will be the most appropriate term for me for the past weeks and I'm sure it will be busier for the coming weeks. I never felt or experienced being busy for the longest time and I miss it. hehehe Believe it or not, I do. I'm used to do a lot of things. That's why I'm kinda back in my old rhythm for the past weeks. First is the BLD Paskuhan. The Youth Ministry performed in front of the whole BLD community. At siyempre we practiced for ilang weeks to make the dance a success. hehehe Next would be my Enrollment. Yes, It only happened for a day, but the stress of lining up and going here and there can kill. I was at CSB by 10am for an interview and I expected to finish all the whatevers by 1pm. To make the story short. I finished by 4pm. Great. Lastly, The Christmas parties. From Wednesday to Saturday. Everynight. Grabe. hahaha
Busy Busy Busy weeks but it was fun.
