The Second Sem Rant

I lack skills in making good schedules. And no, this is not my usual pessimist self talking. This time, I really did do a bad job in making my schedule for the second semester.

First point: Six out of my eight professors are what we students would call terror teachers. Not only are they known for giving out very low grades, but they demand much from their students. Total overhaul in workload. And their flawless grammar in speaking English certainly doesn't help in making them any less intimidating.

Second point: I forgot to give myself a lunch break during Mondays and Thursdays. My classes start at 10 in the morning and end at 5:30 in the afternoon. Let me just stress once more that I have no breaks. None. Not even a five-minute break to grab something to nibble on.

Third point: There is no class day that will let me sleep in. All my classes start at eight in the morning. And I'm not even remotely close to being a morning person! (This is the part where I slap my palm across my forehead.)

But I am thankful for one thing - Manang Sario, a worker in our dorm, has offered to make breakfast for me and some of my friends each morning so that we don't have to be bothered to wake up a lot earlier to grab breakfast in the cafeterias outside or resort to eating cup noodles every morning. What makes it so much better though, is the fact that it would only cost me roughly three hundred pesos per month for those hassle-free breakfasts.

And of course, I have no classes at all during Wednesdays. Maybe this semester won't be so bad after all. *fingers still crossed
