“Welcome to the world of lagasan”

Survival of the fittest.

Matira ang may pinakamatigas na loob. 

Ngayon, walang lilipad na UNO sa harapan niyo.

Quotable quotes from Ma’am K. I was not really expecting these words from her because I heard from someone that she’s that kind of professor that one can be best friends with. So I don’t know. Maybe, she was just plainly pissed off because everybody was so noisy when she entered the room. As for my case, I really did not notice her entered, so me and my seatmates kept on talking until the second she said something.

She was actually kind of spontaneous when she was delivering her sermons or should I say, words of “encouragement” and so, I think she have well thought of those things even before she proceeded to us—-I mean, as my block mates said, our batch has this negative reputation to the proper year professors. And that merely makes me question myself WHY. 

Nevertheless, I really felt like we were on a reality show that very time. Thus, metaphorically, I should do my best to win; to not just pass the subjects but to continue aiming for something above average.

Ma’am Jam has made my spirits lifted minutes before Ma’am K’s talk, during the pre-advising actually, looking at my grades and saying, “Pagbutihan mo pa lalo ah.” 

I don’t know. I am just really motivated now. BUT THEN BORJA. UGH. Let’s see.
