So much for the glamour of the real world

June 8th, 2003 with 147 views

Meh. I feel so terrified. Registration is tomorrow and I have this bad feeling that I will screw everything up. Like, write all the wrong information on the forms or go to the wrong buildings or something. I just know it. Someone in the ORSEM (Orientation Seminar) channel told me to go to this website and I don’t understand anything. I find it so annoying how everyone in Ateneo automatically assumes that the freshmen already know the meaning of all these acronyms and shortcuts, and where all the buildings are located. I want to ask Paula if there’s anything else she knows, but I think she’s out gallavanting with her boyfriend somewhere because she isn’t replying to my SMS. GRRR. This is really stressing me out. I’m about to burst into tears. Seriously. I just hope I get through tomorrow (and the rest of my college life) in one piece. And with a decent class schedule too. If I can schedule my classes, I’m thinking of maybe taking them in the morning so I can spend my afternoons with Jason when he comes. I don’t even know if I can schedule my own classes. Gah. Everything is so vague. Nothing in the website is really helpful. I’M THISCLOSE TO LOSING MY MIND!!!

*dies*

And I know that this is really shallow, but I stupidly left the sneakers that match with the outfit I planned to wear tomorrow at the dorm. So it’s either I change the outfit, or I wear an uncomfortable pair of shoes. I can’t believe I’m worrying about my outfit, when I could be thinking about more important things. But I’m weird like that. When I’m nervous, I like putting a good outfit together. I don’t know why.

Oh, how I suddenly miss the comforts of high school! Yes, it was a dreadful place, but at least my mommy did everything for me. And at least I didn’t have to figure out where in the world SS 284-286 or Berchman’s AVR is!!!

    :D :D :D

    God Laur…this entry IS just SO funny to read…*laughs and eventually rolls on the floor* Hehe.

    Hun, dearest, I’ll help you get through this, I’ll meet you tomorrow with my best friend who’s also kalog (I think you’ll get along just well. :)) and we’ll all go through this together, alright? :) I’m sorry about the SMS, I haven’t been up to my room since I went home from Megamall…Haven’t talked much with Francis…Haha! :D

    I don’t know much about the acronyms either, but I have a bit of a clue on where they’re located naman so it’s no problem. Aside from the fact that Mikki literally went through the entire campus last week and memorized every place would finally prove quite usefull cause it seemed idiotic at that time she did that… :)

    Um…Sadly, we can’t schedule our own subjects..Apparently, we can’t do that until we’re MATURE Juniors…Heh. Try to wear something comfy tomorrow, alright? :D

    Oh…and Laur? BREATHE. You’ll survive, I promise. :)
