Enrolment...
I had so many problems in enrolling for this coming sem.
1. I was not able to get a math and PE class in the CRS. This is the last to be solved.
2. Last Monday, I found myself ineligible to enroll because the College of Engineering did not update from the OUR that our transcript of records was already mailed by our old school to UP. This problem actually delayed me for a whole day! It wasted the day when I should be enlisting my missing subjects in the priority! Oh well, I was able to settle it after findng out too late in the day that some damned letter had to be transferred from one office to another before the "deficiency" was settled. I was not able to do anything else during that day.
3. I had to enlist my math subject. I was told that freshmen like me can still enlist. But you know what? Nothing happened that day too. I just wasted time, money and effort in trying to get a math class that day. Why? Because of the Tricoll. (The Tricolleges: Arts and Letters, Science, and Social Science and Philosophy prioritize their students for the whole of tuesday. As it turns out, Math belongs to the College of Science, so only tricoll students, which does not include Eng'g students like me, can enlist.)
Break: It was too much. I didn't want to go home yet; not in that bad mood anyway. So I went to Pisay when Gellie told me she was going there. I had a good chat with her, Jowi and Desa. It had to be good because I felt lighter when I was going home.
4. Yesterday (Wednesday), I was hoping to get my math class. Problem? The tricoll has exhausted all the aailable slots in the math subject and schedules that I need. The available schedules in math would ruin my schedule. The point is, I was no further that I was in the enrollment process than where I had been on Monday.
Break: I did that in the morning. I intended to go to Pisay again to deliver a book that Clao is borrowing. But I'm not allowed to go there early; It had to be at least later than 4pm. So what did I do to waste my afternoon? I thought of Miriam once I knew I had nothing more to do that day. And I thought maybe I can go visit her. Then I felt this strong tug saying "GO." (Maybe it was intuition. I met her when I was coming out of the elevator on her floor and she was about to get in to go down. If I came later or if she went earlier, maybe we would not have met.) I went with her into Ateneo to keep her company while enrolling. We talked about many things of course. Then we were both hungry so we went back to her place. She cooked us a meal! We ate together... (That was probably the happiest lunch of my life. I missed her so much.) We talked even more. At around 4:30pm I went to Pisay. I even played soccer (barefoot, as I usually did when I did not bring my proper shoes.) Running around and kicking felt so good. I was so happy. I went home very happy. Yes, it is a day that I call "O, Happy day!"
5. My math problem was finally solved this morning. (Of course it's not a math problem. It's a subject problem. No, enrolling problem ->better.) I was hoping ro prerog into a math class in my proper schedule. It turns out that I needn't be so nervous to prerog because there was enlistment going on. AND YES! They opened slots in the schedule that I need. Enlisting in that one subject feels so good.
After that... I went to my classes. (Yesterday was suposed to be the first day of classes.) After my classes, I went to EEE for confirmation of slots, post-advising and assessment.
I had a scholarship, so when the guy just dashed the scholarship/privilege box as if I had no scholarship, I asked "What if I have a scholarship?" He said, then I won't do this. You have to have your scholarship stamped."
So went to the place where I knew my scholarship is stamped. I found out that my scholarship was better. I don't have to pay anything in my tuition anymore.
I went backto EEE for assesment. then the girl said, "Oh, You have to go to the OUR. You're already subsidized." Actually I don't know the whole meaning of subsidy until now. But I walked to the OUR anyway and fell in line. After the lady looked for my name in a list and did a bit of checking, I got surprised when she stamped "registered" on my form. Then she gave me my copy. I thought I had to go to the AS or somewhere else for machine validation. But it was finished there. I was finally done!
Yeah, I went home happy.
