Finally...
I have something to blog about...
Well, contrary to my assumption in my "To shift or not to shift" entry, I passed 114.1!
Hmm.
It was planning sem then when my friends and I knew about our grades. The EOs texted JR Gamil, our blockhead, our student numbers for him to text back our grades. And after a while, when I saw that (umm how will i describe this) MIRACULOUS "2.5" next to my student number (you actually need 2.75 to continue), I was really SHOCKED. Well not really... since I already saw Richard and Stephie literally jumping around and screaming with joy, I kind of had this little spark of hope inside me that somehow, I'd pass. Ehe ehe. And yup, I did! I was really happy 'bout it and I, myself, literally jumped around and screamed with joy as what others did during that, again, miraculous moment of our lives.
But, after a minute or so of our crazy release of jubilation and excitement, I found my self tulala. And so were my other girl friends.
There's this other feeling of nervousness and stress....... Uhuhh........ STRESS! We couldn't believe that we'll go thru another sem with a dangerous mixture of Law recitations, Finance and Management cases, ACCOUNTING classes, homeworks, and exams!!! But wait, there's more! (Haha) We'll have another deadly subject on the menu... Systems Design! (Tama ba?) (Actually, I've no idea 'bout this subject, pero I saw my BA friends working extremely hard for this one.) Basta, there's a hellish sem coming up.
That's why some of my friends (kahit ako), thought about shifting... Parang, it's not worth it kasi eh... Imagine enduring all that to be a CPA? When all you're after is to have that 3 little letters "CPA" after your name? I mean, most of us do not intend to practice it anyway... So why stress yourself over something you don't really love with all your heart? Diba...
On the other hand, I thought, it's not really Accounting I hate... In fact, I don't hate Accounting at all! It's kind of fun actually... Haha. What I REALLY hate are those EXAMS that are exaggeratedly & impossibly hard! Pambihira. Sabi nga ni JR Gamil, with the trends of really low passing rates across the batches, "mukhang gusto na nilang i-phase-out ang BAA." Hahaha. Seriously, that's how it feels na nga eh. Parang pahihirapan ka lang, pagtapos, pahihirapan uli, tapos ibabagsak ka rin sooner or later.
Anyway, I won't shift out of BAA... Haha. I'll still give it a try. God gave this opportunity to me... Why not grab it? Maybe He wants me to be an accountant talaga. Hehe. Bahala na nga! I'm still young... I'm not in a hurry to graduate anyway... So what kung ma-delay ng 1 sem 'pag magshift to BA after this sem? Hmm... I'll be 20 by then (Oct 2007). Ang bata! Haha. So okay lang 'yan. Masarap ang hirap. Fulfilling. Haha. :)
