It's not easy to be in College.

Since I became college, ang dami kong narealize. All the pain way back high school life that I've experienced, wala pang kalahati sa nararanasan ko ngayon. Because aside from lacking in finances, I have to face pressure and other personal problems. These baggages are not easy, literal na maiiyak ka nalang because of the pain.

I realized na pag college ka na, ikaw lamang ang makatutulong sa sarili mo, kailangan mong magsikap kung gusto mo talagang makapagtapos.

Sa college ko naranasan na hindi importante ang baon, pamasahe lang masaya na ako, palamig lang ay okay na.

You'll also appreciate your parent's sacrifices more than how you appreciate before at mahihiya ka nang humingi ng pera kasi alam mo na walang wala na din sila.

• Mararanasan mo ang kaba pag bunutan na ng index card at kapag spin the wheel of names na.

Most especially kung hindi ka nakapag study sa lesson niyo at mahirap sayo intindihin ang mga topics. College is so practtical, unlike highschool na ituturo talaga sainyo ang lesson hanggang maunawaan. College will make you to give your best and understand the lessons even though you didn't actually understand the whole topic.

• Mapupuyat dahil kailangang magreview at gumawa ng activities.

When the semester starts, then the battle starts also. College life are more into hands on activities. Professors will give you more activities every week they don't mind if you have so many subjects. You need to passed the activity on time for you to achieve high scores. In this part, you will experience the word "Procrastination and Cramming".

• Hindi relationship ang hanap mo kundi scholarship.

In college, lovelife is not you think anymore. You will be busy on finding and fill uping the scholarships. Importante ang scholarship lalo na hindi kami mayaman.

• Expect that your 1000 allowance is not enough for 1 week.

I know that 1k allowance for a week is not enough but dito mararanasan kung pano magtipid. Lalo na dito sa syudad, every move you make it takes money. The fair the food and projects.

• Mapapaisip ka kung paano ka naging honor student noon.

If you are a honor student in highschool and it's important to you, then don't treat college like a highschool life because college are mote into practicals. As long as you are passed it its is okay. Unless, you are a competitive person but in college competitive people will not sustain if you are more into expectations.

If alam ko lang na ganito ang mararanasan ko, sana noon palang pinaghandaan ko na, sana nagtipid na ako at sana pinag-ipunan ko na.

Mahirap maging college, parang lumalakad ka sa lugar na madilim, kakapa ka talaga. But despite all the challenges that I've go through and I've been dealing with now, alam ko na may patutunguhan ang lahat. Sabi nga nila, masarap makamit ang isang bagay kapag ito'y pinaghirapan kaya laban para sa kinabukasan!

Makakagraduate ako, sa tulong ng Maykapal at gagraduate ako para pamilya ko.

Kaya sa mga tao na patuloy na naniniwala at nagtitiwala sa kakayahan ko, salamat sa inyo! Maging matagumpay man ako, patuloy ko kayong lilingunin dahil kung wala kayo ay wala ako ngayon sa kolehiyo.

Sa mga college na kagaya ko, padayon! Makakagraduate din tayo. ❤️
