I dropped my Algebra subject for this term right after my first class of it last Monday. I simply couldn’t endure anymore future abdominal/kidney pains that I might suffer in the long run, I’d die early if I continue with the goddamn schedule of Algebra. Yeah, so this is how my day went……
I came late on my Filipino class, it was my first subject which starts at 7AM. The professor wasn’t there yet and my blockmates arrived shortly after that and so did our professor. He seemed nice, he’s strict but doesn’t look like it. So far I’m getting something from his lessons, he teaches good and I hope I’ll be able to remember everything he discussed on our previous discussions. On our first day he dismissed us early since there’s not much to do anymore. I left the classroom and ran to the backdoor of the school so I can get a pedicab (sidecar bicycle?) to bring me to AKIC (other building where Algebra classes are held, refer to this entry). It was definitely hard getting there since the pedicab went to a different route than I expected, and when we were nearer to the building, some mild traffic built up, thank goodness I left 10 minutes early than expected or I would’ve been late.
When I arrived at the hotel building I was greeted by a long line of HRIM (dressed in formal executive attires, that’s their uniform) students waiting for the elevator. I knew I’d be late if I wait with them so I took the stairs from ground floor to the eighth floor, when I reached the 4th floor I was grasping for my breath, 6th floor my knees started to tremble and get weak, when I reached the door to the 8th floor fire exit I was dragging my messenger bag to the floor since I couldn’t carry it anymore. I felt uber weak and my kidney started to hurt, didn’t made a big deal out of it and considered to it to be “normal” since I just climbed 8 floors, or so I thought. It probably took more than 10 minutes before class proper and there were only 17 of us, out of 47 (I found this out later) and most of them were executive dressed students, the rest were MMA students like me who dressed in casual outfits, it was easy to tell courses apart on that class, really. As the professor started orienting us with the ‘house rules’ of his class the left side of my lower abdomen started to hurt real bad and I hurried to the bathroom, it got worse after that.. much like unbearable pain as the hour went on. After class I hurriedly went to take the elevator, and my eyesight started to blur and dim out, my body was cold and perspiring, I asked someone where the clinic was.. when the elevator opened I went out to get some ‘natural air’ and I called my dad to pick me up. I went back to the elevator and went to the 7th floor, admitted myself to their clinic. The doctor in charge was nice enough to believe my condition and so I slept for the next 3 hours, mom arrived at quarter to 11 and we discussed things over, I knew I won’t get any better schedule anymore since I’m not ‘allowed’ anymore so the remaining thing to do was drop the subject. I don’t care if my dad gets mad at me for ‘wasting’ his money, it’ll be refunded anyway and besides it’s my health that’s going to suffer if I continue. Fortunately I’m OK now, thank God.
The registrar at AKIC are friggin bitches, I decided to arrange my course dropping at the main building. At recent the only thing lacking is the original copy of my medical certificate, I’ll submit it on Monday hopefully it’ll patch things up. I seriously hate running school requirements, the lines and waiting and so many paper work and requirements irritate me to the nth level. Yes, I don’t have patience especially on lines, this is why on gigs I want to be VIP-ed, hahaha. Anyway, my current schedule as of now for MWF is 7AM-4:40PM, I have an 8-hour break after my 7AM class which ends at 8AM, my next class starts at 2:30PM soo.. I go home after morning classes, hehe, yay! Tuesday schedule I could consider as the WORST, early PE class and waiting for 2 hours for another class and an hour for the start of afternoon class. Thursday isn’t bad since classes start on the afternoon for me, which I like than morning classes! I have this on subject which I regret taking cause the section I’m in have ‘unfriendly people’, I won’t say which class and what subject it is maybe you’ll find out. 😳 They’re unfriendly, most of them are.. I’m glad I found friends who aren’t from their section who happened to be there as well. I don’t like them and they probably don’t like me as well, get over it. 😆
I’ll be returning the comments shortly after this, thanks guys! :heart:
And will be followed by watching The Sixth Sense, haha, we watched Pay it Forward for my “Religion” class and I got curious on Haley Osment, he doesn’t look that cute now but yeah.. just for the sake of movies, woo! Oh yeah, I recently got a Skitch account, add me or something? Astroholiday is my account 🙂

I wish I had the option to drop classes when I was at school.

i wish i could drop math.. kaso i’m in hs.. sigh.. i’m glad you like your filipino class! 🙂
tama yan anna… hindi naman ok na i-take pa yung algebra nang nahihirapan ka lang… parang wala rin kasi di ka makaka-concentrate davva 🙂 anyway… Ingat ka nalang at Godbless :]
Tama yung ginawa mo, at you dropped your Algebra kesa naman every time na punta ka dun magsusuffer ka diba? And I’m glad you’re doing more fine now!
Wag ka na ulit aakyat ng 8th floors hahaha.
Yeah what you did was right. Kesa nga naman sa mag-suffer ka pa dahil sa schedule mo.
Whoa, I can’t imagine going up the 8th floor just using stairs! Sa main building na nga lang, pag-akyat sa 5th floor sobrang hinihingal na ko! 8th floor pa kaya? And grabe! Meron kang 8-hour break! Hahaha! Kamusta naman yan. I didn’t take long hour breaks since my home is far away from school, sayang sa gas because they don’t allow me to commute yet. -_-
Anyway, hope you’re okay now. See you in school! 🙂
Tama lang yan. I-drop mo na lang yung Algeb mo kesa magsuffer yung health mo diba?
Nung binabasa ko yung entry mo, grabe, parang nafifeel ko yung nangyayari sayo. Yung “my eyesight started to blur and dim out, my body was cold and perspiring” Grabe yun. 😛
Sana ok ka na ngayon. :heart:
