My First Blog In Ages...

So yeah. I'm not that sad for my third year life anymore. Things are starting to look up, after the disaster that is first semester. And here's how my life went through most of the year.


Background: That summer became the most boring summer I've ever had. MTG seems to have lost appeal. Or I guess I left most of the people I hang out with at DEECO when I was invited to attend AU trainings instead. Nevertheless, it was still with great relief to see that five-week torture end, but with that end also came the end of my MTG life,or so if I decided I won't volunteer to teach there in college. Anyways, after that there was this MTP summer camp - better on many counts than the MTG training but still lacking.

And that's how my year began - expectant for a change from the boredom of two months summer has given me. But no, summer was prolonged. Yet, the lack of math in that one-week extension I was grateful for, and with a heavy heart I started the school year.

Well, Rb wasn't that bad, but it wasn't what I was hoping for. Echoes of the bliss and fun the last year has bestowed haunted me. And anyways, first impressions do last. The first day of school came as a humongous shock to me - everyone was reading the STR manuals preparing for a quiz that may or may not come. No one was saying nothing. Soon, Rb became much noisier, but still not that Dahlia noise. I guess the fun Rb likes is not my kind of fun. So for the first few weeks, nights we're still spent with Dahlia, Dahlia, Dahlia. Then came another week of suspension because of that stupid pandemic. But then, given the boredom I have to endure that June, I was thrilled.

When school returned, Dahlia was no more - or rather, it became even more loose. For the most of July, I returned to the dormitories at five and slept for about twelve hours, all the time dreaming about the times earlier in the year, when the average time of return to the dorm was eight, and the average time of sleeping was three, after a nightful of internet and late-night movies. Then I switched from the Justine-Grace-Titus side of Dahlia to the Janella-Albert side of Dahlia. For most of the second quarter, the daily routine then transformed to return to the dorm by eight and sleep by eight thirty.

So I guess my first semester was really sloppy. On the other hand, third quarter was happier. That was when I started to hang out with more and more people, including this group of Rb people. I also started doing more extra-curricular activities, just to brighten up my afternoon. So yeah, I just hope next year wouldn't be as sloppy as this one.
