Estudyante Blues.
I am actually amazed that I've never been sent to a mental asylum for insanity cases.
I wake up so early in the morning, do the usual morning routine and head off to school.This is where my day really starts. For an hour, I would study Analytic Geometry, next would be Precalculus for another hour. Breaktime. Forty minutes of world history in Social Studies follows, another 40 for PEHM, last period would be Chemistry. *Two consecutive math subjects and I believe I cursed math since elementary,both lasting for an hour. A very short recess lifts my spirits up, but will instantly fail when I see my Social and PEHM teachers. Plus another hour of agony before lunch? Gaaah.The horror*
I WAS TOLD THAT A PERSON'S AVERAGE LISTENING CAPACITY (WITH HIS FULL ATTENTION) IS ONLY ABOUT 16 MINUTES.
After lunch, English comes in, but I have no problem with this subject. Next would be Physics, Advanced Statistics and last is Filipino. Maswerte na kung onti ang homeworks, eh natuto ako mag-cram nung nag-high school. Sinusumpa ko yung isang araw na lahat ng subjects sa umaga may PRELIM, tapos may mga homeworks sa ibang subject.Or sunod-sunod yung quizzes na matatawa ka na lang dahil tinadhanang ganun ang mangyari at nasisisi pa ang mga teacher (conspiracy theories!) kasi parang nakaplano.*
I was just pondering upon how students manage to work their brains this hard. An average of 6-8 hours in school for me...its been like this for 6 elementary years,3 (one more year)high school years...and there's still college.The human mind is so perplexing. I underestimated its strength and capacity...my own capacity.Its just earlier this day that it struck me "Wow, buti wala pang studyanteng nababaliw dahil puro na lang aral".
OH WELL. Sounds like I am complaining. Slight, I guess, but you'd have to agree that school life may be hated so much, but "there's something about it that makes me keep coming back to school everyday". Thanks to my best buds, we keep each other sane. =)
