Destiny's Haven

It's been a while since I last updated my blog. As I told you guys before, I really have a hard time keeping a blog of any sort since I tend to lose interest immediately. I'm so sorry for not updating you guys. A lot has happened since I last blogged here.

Just a quick recap of all the things that have happened between then and now.. I'm now a sophomore BS Psychology student, yes, you heard me right! I was able pass my first year of college and I must say that I did pretty well. If last year's first sem was terrible, I have to say that this year's 1st sem is about 10 times more horrible. We practically have a long exam every week! But aside from being stressed by acads, I have to say that this year (well.. this sem) is full of surprises. For one I'm now an officer of my org (Celadon) despite the fact that I wasn't as active as I would have liked last year. Now that I'm an officer, I have this drive to show everyone that they didn't make a huge mistake and so you'll probably see me in more org activities.

Last sem, I took up arnis for my P.E.. I guess I did pretty well since I was able to win 3rd place in my division. I guess my instructor also thought that I showed potential since he gave me a recommendation letter to join the varsity! :D In my whole life, I never would have thought that I'll be joining a varsity, much less when I'm in college. I started training last week and my gosh.. varsity training is no joke. My muscles were screaming by the time we finished training but you know what? Despite that I was tired because training is from 4:30-7:30, when I get home, I always seem to have so much energy left. I remember that after my first training session I was up until 12 something in the morning :))

2nd year.. after the 1st year in college, some people shift courses. I have one blockmate, her name's Jian. She shifted out of our course because maybe she had 2nd thoughts about pursuing med and didn't want to waste her time with the heavy science courses which our course entails. Now, if someone left, someone should come in right? Just to maintain the balance of everything. My blockmates and I now have 5 new members added to our block. They are Mela Bucoy, DanGaurano, Becca Cortez, Reg Guillermo and Gab Bustamante! :) Hello new blockmates! :D

I haven't been able to talk to Mela much so I can't say much about her only that she looks like a cool person and someone whom you can easily befriend. Also, from what I've heard from Merce, she's also a really good dancer :D

Dan.. hmm.. what can I say about him? Well.. he's a huge flirt and he can be soooooo random and weird at times ( he tells me that I should blame it on the alcohol.. uh huh... anyway.. :P) In the short time that I've met him I think we've become pretty good friends. He's fun to talk to and he offers insights which I sometimes would never have thought of. I guess that his being too much of an alcohol lover and crammer are the things which I don't like about him :(

Becca.. what can I say? She's a really cool girl :) She's funny and I dunno, I think that she's easy to talk to :) I have a feeling that given enough time to talk to her, we could be close friends :)

Reg... Reg can be sarcastic and funny at the same time. I don't know exactly how to describe it but he makes that possible :)) I remember him being my groupmate in one of Gen Psych class activities and that's how I learned that he can be sarcastic and funny at the same time :))

Gab.. Gab is sooo funny especially when it comes to Merce. Dana and I still think that both Merce and Gab have a reaction formation thing for one another... naaahhh... we're just kidding :)) If that were true, that would be an epic story :))

Some of the new friends I've met are:

Marvs Reyes: Marvs is just so adorable :) He reminds me of a little kid at times. He looks like a college freshman or sophomore when in truth he's a senior. He never fails to give me a hug when I see him :) He's one of my closest friends in my org.

Marky Dizon: I met this weirdo of a person during my summer class. I remember that the first time I saw him I thought that he had looks but he needs to lighten up a bit :)) He has this aura which kind of says "Don't talk to me else you'll get hurt" but after you've known him I swear your view of him will change forever. He's the guy who can make you laugh because of his laughter and I dunno.. he really can just make you laugh.. I guess that's one of the reasons why we're close. We kind of understand each other ( I don't want to say that we're like each other because I'm not as weird as he is -_- xDD ) This guy is definitely my closest guy friend in college. Btw, he just won gold in his taekwondo match :D Congratulations to him :)

Mark Dychauco: My orgmate who resembles Shaggy when he doesn't shave :)) He's really loud and hyper. I don't think I've ever seen him quiet unless he's sleeping on the couch in the org room. He has this habit of suddenly tickling you when you least expect it and that's one of the reasons why I have to stay alert when I'm in the org room :))

Paco Scott: He's my Fil-Am friend who can speak straight Tagalog. I also met him during my summer class. He's a really funny guy and you don't have to strain yourself to start a conversation with him. He usually talks more and that's saying something because I talk a lot at times :P Compared to Marky, I talk less to him.. I mean I only get to talk to him when he's online. I rarely get to talk to him in school but despite that I think we're pretty good friends in the sense that he says hi whenever we see each other and he's game whenever Marky and I come up with plans to go out with Dana and Richard and our other SA blockmates. :)

Anyway.. I think I shall end this long blog post here for the moment. I should be doing my Gen Psych project at the moment. The only reason why I felt the urge to write a new blog post was because I just read Dan's blog and I dunno.. I just wanted to blog for a while too :P Until next time then! :)
