A different story.

Woops, so it's March already? Damn, that's a lot faster than I thought.

Life's been easy on me these days; met some really nice people and some rather "unfriendly" ones, but most of them are pretty outgoing, or maybe that's just me. Bleh.

Guess when they said CPU is very assignment/project-orientated, they weren't lying. Managed to complete my various Chemistry assignments, my first English "Reader Response Essay" and also my "Media Presentation", and also the crazy (Lady Gaga) poster I did for Advanced Functions. Yes, Lady Gaga.

Reader response essay is some interesting shit, and this is exactly what I need at the moment; some form of practice to hone in my argumentative skills, which falls far behind my story writing ability. I'll never look at any lyrics the same way again (Well, except lyrics about sex and drugs, because their "hidden meanings" are usually just more sex, and more drugs.)

And English media presentation was awesome. I did an analysis of the music video "Breaking the Habit" by Linkin Park, which was an undeniably splendid choice. Somehow, I've felt that my stage fright kinda wore off (or not?); at least I didn't stutter much, or begin sentences with random occurrences of "uhh", "ahh", "ehh".

Last Friday was the day I took my first Chemistry exam (unit test? Whatever). Freaking cool; I never knew that the 7th floor was in fact an examination hall. LOL. Some people claimed it was an office floor, meh, it only proves how rarely people actually go there.

Oh and the 8th floor is the prayers floor? Cool.

College life is extremely exhausting, seriously. I got through nearly 6-8 hours of schooling/tuition per day during high school without feeling shit, and a daily six hour dose of college saps all of my vigor away.

That's not a bad thing though. 

While writing this post, I'm kinda assigned (on Facebook) to some random English group project thingy. What used to be a simple task kinda went nuts for me as I might have to skip Monday's group discussion due to my driving test. Oh, and some other issues which I prefer not to mention about. Damn.

Oh well, time to buck up for even more challenges. CPU is not just an interesting, engaging, satisfying chapter; no, never from the beginning. It's a chapter that strengthens me, that allows me to see the world from a different perspective, and also learn how to deal with all kinds of people. However, I don't know how to deal with pushy people yet though. Guess this is the perfect opportunity to learn.

My first real challenge in college life? Kinda. I'm glad it ain't about stupid love stories or friendship issues anymore though. Yet, I fully comprehend that this is merely a small bump on the road before a torrent of landslides and mountainous hills ahead (I hope not). May God bless me along my path, and grant me the strength, courage and willpower to overcome them.

Let's rock.
