I enrolled as an AB student because I know that my heart goes for the 'arts' and I mean the liberal kind of art. When I was still in high school I started to think of what course I would take. I first decided to take up Mass Communication. But I feel like I don't fit in in that course. I thought of Communication Arts. I found it in one of the magazines that I'm fond of reading and collecting. So from then on it was either Mass Communication or Communication Arts: both in the field of communication. Then the big trend of health care courses came, especially the nursing field, my whole plan was like destroyed. My mother (and my aunts and uncles from the States) is forcing me to take this course up. I told her I don't want to. I defended myself but then she won. So I was just like, "Okay, fine! Whatever! You'll be the one who'll pay for all the shit I'll be making in college!" So there. I ended up planning my nursing career. Even in our yearbook, my future career in our batch prophecy is a Dean of a nursing department in a famous school. But as the school year closes, I quit it. I don't want to be part of the swarming crowd of nurses out there. I mean I can't just do what's in. I hate following trends! I'm not even a fashion victim yah know. So when I enrolled I was like in doubt of what to take up. I'm really still in doubt. As I take a look at the school brochure, there were only a few AB courses. There is Mass Communication but I don't think I'll fit in in the journalism world. I'm more on the features stuff. There isn't Communication Arts which I think I like best. Then I was intrigued with the course "International Studies". I was like, "dude, it sounds international! I can travel! Paris, baby!!" I laughed at that. Then I decided to take the course up.
But as I examine the prospectus after enrolling, I said to myself it was such a heavy course. I'll be dealing with international business here like 'International Relations', 'International organizations' and stuff like that. I was like, "Whoa!! I thought I'll be traveling a lot with this course?" But then I said to myself I have to stand up for this. This is my decision. I had the chance to take up entrance exam of the other school and take up another course but I didn't knew about it. I should stand for what I did.
And now I'm planning to transfer to the school I liked best and shift to AB English. Kuya Ramon's official enrollment form influenced me to shift to this course. He is a fourth year AB-English student. He has so many English classes that I really found interesting. He even said that they made a magazine last semester as a requirement. And I was like, "wow! I could be an intern in Candy or Seventeen through this." This is what I really like. I like to write. I like to read. I like to be in the creative writing department of the world!!
I thought if I enroll as an IS student I could learn more and improve my writing. But I was wrong. And now, I'm in doubt; should I continue my way as a diplomat or should I go back and get the course that I really wanted?
ako!!!hahahha!!
