...THE UP MASSCOMM FORM 26A EXPERIENCE OF ME
that's it. i'm never holding a UP form 26a again while i'm in journ. everyone in masscomm gets himself/herself involved in the addition of matriculation process; it's madly annoying. first the adviser, who took one look and then another, thinking it was weird for someone in journalism to take math 114(the linear algebra course). but since i placed "3rd year" in my add mat form, no worries. the 3rd years are prescribed 21 units in their 3rd year anyway. at least i didn't have to lie. =D
then the college secretary. oh no. i had to place some reason. what could i think of? i wrote down "subject closed out".
oh no no. the college secretary personally signed each and every form 26a! the clerk at the secretary's office asked me to come inside Lourdes Portus's office. she was, in two words, A BULLDOG. and i didn't know i was about to receive treatment, bulldog style.
"g-good a-afternoon po."
"ANO ITONG SINULAT MONG RASON?!! ANO ITONG 'SUBJECT CLOSED OUT'?!!"
"u-um, k-kas-se p-po, u-um, s-sinara n-na p-po n-ng m-math d-department y-yung s-subject eh..."
"EH PAPAANO KA NAKAPASOK SA SUBJECT NA ITO KUNG 'CLOSED OUT'?!!"
"u-um, k-kase p-po, p-pinayagan p-po a-ako ng p-prof n-ng subject eh..."
"AY, NAKU, BAGUHIN MO IYANG SINULAT MO DIYAN. DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WROTE IN THERE?!!"
and almost in tears i went out to change my reason. but i could think of no other reason for adding my units other than trying to graduate on time. as if i could write that down. but the kindred soul that was the clerk outside her room told me something that could be written down. and i don't know what it was. i don't want to remember what it was; i'm never holding any form 26as ever again.
next, the assessment. the person behind the counter examind it, and i swear she almost like held it up to the light and tapped it with her fingers to ensure it was not counterfeit. she asked me, "ano ito? math 114?" i replied,"opo, non-CMC elective po." "ano'ng year mo na ba?" "third po."
then she asked loudly the other people, as if she wanted to catch me by making other people exclaim something,"meron bang lab fee yung math 114?" having got a negative response, she then proceeded to write 910 pesos on the form.
finally, the worst was over.
i'm never asking for another form 26a again. terror prof na kung terror prof. hmph. my experiences here have taught me only so much about the harder registration life in other colleges. >|

No more lonely nights

Am the Head of the Department of Poisons and Antidotes of the College of Substances, also doubling as the chief of the Apothecary for the Department of the National Defense. Ahem.
BUT SERIOUSLY
Am a 4th year University of the Philippines student, but currently am a non-major in the College of Mass Communication. I can write, but am really unsure of whether I write well. This is a somewhat faithful version of what I keep in my paper diaries. And yes, I DO write my diaries MANUALLY. I've already filled up thirty-three Papemelroti notebooks, and am on my thirty-four. I love to eat, and boy, my diet sure can pack the pounds on even Palito. I now am planning to reduce weight, but will execute after the hell weeks are over. :D Am planning to shift to either BS Economics or BS Statistics. Wish me luck! :D
