Everything feels so surreal.


The first time I sat up on my double-deck bed was the time i realized that I was actually going to live all by myself. I had the money to spend as I please, and the freedom to do such a simple thing makes me scared. I stood in the middle of the street and gazed at the internet shops, the carinderias, the photocopying centers and I find myself lost. No one to tell me what to do, no one to remind me that I have to do this and that.

I finally entered this cubicle and typed my heart away while chatting with EJ. I told myself, the next four years will be pretty lonely.. Thank God for LJ.

My feet hurt because of the Campus tour. Jesus, the thing was so damn huge. trivia: UPLB is the largest UP campus. This is because it includes IRRI, the rice research institute. Imagine walking in flip-flops with sporadic rain and sunlight alternating. I collapsed to my bed after that, but not before getting lost on the way back to my dorm. Thank God Ate gave me a personal tour the last time I went here.

I don't have homesickness yet. I haven't made any good friends. The only numbers added in my phonebook are two: one of that goofy tour guide and the other of a girl I met at the orientation.

BTW, my new number is 09286126258. Feel free to comment your number in this post since I lost my old sim card, and your numbers.

Ate tells me that here I will learn how to save money. It's scary. If I overspend, I won't have anyone to run to for more money. Oh, now I know the insecurities of living independently.

I'm looking forward to the lessons tomorrow. Studying, listening to the teacher and assesssing if he/she is a jackass or not is one of my strengths. Why? Because it doesn't challenge my social skills.

My future and sense of direction will be in my prayers tonight.

My first day felt very surreal as well. ^^; The fact that I, the clueless EJ, is already in college and dealing with this freedom is very unreal. >.< I feel like I'm just dreaming and when I wake up, I'm still a HS student. :\

GOODLUCK IN EVERYTHING, HANA DAHLING~~! XDD Everything's gonna be alright, be strong, believe! :3 You might be thinking that it's easy for me to say this since I'm not living away from home, but we're all pretty much on the same boat. =| The fact that we have this scary freedom is proof enough. =/

BTW, my number is 09064391921. :D Blech, smart ka na naman. AGH!

Oh Hana. *HUGS*
there, there. :(
:D Think about it though...after a while, once you've gotten used to the freedom...it won't be so scary anymore since you'll know hat to do with it.
