Diversities and College.

I have decided to restructure my blog from a plot-oriented to a personal blog, because as of the moment, a lot of things clog up in my brain. Emotional, mental and other forms of stress built up as I handle a new life in an environment of extreme diversities. Where could it be? The University of the Philippines Diliman, where you would meet a variety of individuals gifted with their own skills and talents who also happened to be struggling in the same academic grounds.

Almost a month has been elapsed from the academic calendar, and new people have came in one destination from different parts of the country and the globe as well. Of course, I would not speak that much at first except in the internet (yes, and I'm actually going to rant later in this post). Well, I architected this blog to be lengthy so bored readers would find out that they're just wasting their time reading it and they should've accomplished their Math 17 homeworks. Back on track, I was very confident that I won't have trouble with UP life because a lot of Scientians are present in the different corners of Diliman (as well as in Los Baños, Manila, and Baguio).

I had my very first dose of UP education in Japanese 10, where I also took my very first quiz (and damn I got a 2/10). The world was like crumbling in my very own eyes, and I was really discouraged at that moment. It was only in our POLSC11 that I learned that I'm into a block. At first, it was cool but my personality would soon look for diversity of people. Thanks to UP Political Society, I was able to do so. Our elder brothers and sisters in the department did a lot of effort just to provide us a very warm welcome. But I think the warmest welcome would be the Math 17 long exam *sobs*.

My blockmates seem to come from an entirely different culture. Considering the freedom of expression exercised in the University, I happened to act as if I'm still a regular Scientian. Also, they took things that I consider jokes as serious matters and viewed it in a negative perspective. I would neither blame them nor reject their observations because I strongly believe in freedom of expression. Now, I am considering to start from the very beginning and examine what the people around me is like (like what I did during my third year in high school). Honestly, I blame my personality change in this matter. I should've been observant and been taking things up step by step before speaking or doing something. I shouldn't have turned myself from an introvert into an extrovert. Yes, social crisis is back and resolving it should be done immediately.

In the next few days, I plan to distant myself from my new friends to give space for adjustments and urgent changes. And I have to cut this blog short because damn, my reaction paper in POLSC11 isn't yet done.
