Hi. Hello. Its been a while since I have posted something in my blog. That time I promised myself to post blogs everyday and its been like a year ever since I posted my last blog. Things have changed since then. All the scary stuff I have thought about college perished as I set myself in an unforgettable journey towards adulthood in college in a slow pace.
I then realized that college is really different from high school. From the subject matters to the activities, its totally different but I think its much more fun in college for the intensity level of the atmosphere here is much more appreciated. But you know what? like any first years I was really nervous at first and I was so caught up in my expectations that I didn't know that college could be this simple. I am forever grateful for the friends that I have right now, we already have an official name! The ERFs (Emergency room friends) and right now, we are getting stronger despite of being separated due to the changing of schedules. I thank God for giving me such good friends for they make my day complete.Also I would like to thank my teachers that have served us this school year. Ma'am and sir, you have been my mentors in life and you have inspired me to also be a teacher like you guys! I am happy to be with you and I will treasure all the things that you have taught us. Thank you...
Before this blog turns into an emotional one, let me remind you dearest reader that I am here to report to you not just my college life but all sort of things. I guess I can begin by saying I have seen one of the most truthful movies of all time and its entitled "Easy A" starring Emma Stone. I find it funny that this blog could turn into a movie review, but hey I can write whatever I please, so just stay there and relax as I slowly unfold to you a secret that some of us made our high school life a living hell.
The story starts with a lie, a white lie that seems to be too personal. Olive Penderghast considered herself as an anonymous, as a subject for exile and as a nobody, for her she is one of the most ordinary student there is in their school. She lied to her best friend Rhiannon as an excuse for not being with her during the weekend. Now the lie was beyond of what you can expect. She lied that she had lost her virginity to a fake college guy named George that totally doesn't exists and Marianne, a strictly catholic girl and the secretary of their student council overheard it and from then on it spread like wildfire. Then things started to get worse when some gay guy wanted her to become his fake girlfriend for the sake of not being bullied and for the sake of being acknowledged as a straight guy. Olive agreed for the reason that she took sympathy over the poor guy for she knew what it feels like to be rejected by other people and to be teased at. After all of the commotion of having a successful fake love making in a public place, other people started to come to her with the hope of being accepted again if they would fake lose their manly virginity to a girl that is rumored to be a whore. For some reason, she was entirely open for business and was happy to help other people to regain their self confidence by doing lies, lies that affected her life entirely and she just acted like she didn't have a clue. She never knew that what she did was wrong for when she was doing it, it just feel so right, that now she is the superior one for she was feeling that she was the only girl to know a world that can't be opened to most of the girls in high school. I guess when she wanted to be popular it never occurred to her that she was known for all the wrong reasons. In her mind, there is a reputation that she has to maintain, an image that she has to protect for the sake of being known and acknowledged in exchange.
In my opinion, if you want to be popular then just be yourself. I know that each and everyone of us possess a special quality that makes us unique from everyone else. I guess if you want to be known then stood out and shine bright for all the right reasons. The purpose why I shared to you my dear reader about this eye-opening movie is that college is not as different as high school, I mean if you contrast them then there must be some differences but I guess if you choose to compare them then there's bound to be a lot of similarities. For instance, rumors and gossips in college are as lethal as those in high school, for like in the movie it spreads like wildfire. Gossips and rumors are part of everyday life, however if you keep on pestering other people's life by annoying them with your false information then get a life. The story ended with a BANG!... for she told the whole truth via webcast in the internet, my lingering thought of the day was "Hey! if technology is the source of gossips, rumors and lies then it may be used as a counter attack by telling the truth and nothing but the truth" and on that note people around the world would see the light of truthfulness and their perspective in life would really change. I guess I have a lot of fun in my college life that I have now been enlighten by these thoughts. These realization would not be possible without the aide of my day to day experiences. You should enjoy this glorious moments while you can, because I have.
