the cross

1st term of my 2nd year in Taft was my first term as a College of Business and Economics student. I am currently a Marketing major student. I used to take up AB-Psychology in the College of Liberal Arts. Though i truly enjoy studying Psychology, i just didn't think that i fit in that course so i decided to shift to Marketing along with my friend Jordan. My first term as a Marketing student was really challenging and FUN! FUN!:D I had fun subjects like ACTBAS1, ENGLRES, BUSORGA, and TREDTWO, I met tons of new friends, and it was also the first time I felt that I squeezed all the brain juices in me. WOW! The first time i felt like vomiting after an exam! haha! This photo was taken somewhere in Laguna? for a field trip in class. The trip was called AdvocaTREE, we were required to plant at least 5 trees to help save the environment or something. That trip was really exhausting but it was also one of the best experiences ever. Not only did I get to help the environment, but i also met some new friends along the way. In order to get to the planting site, we had to pass through a bunch of rocks under a stream. It was very slippery so we all held hands in order to pass through safely. After crossing that, i suddenly realized that, this cross towards the other side is something that i can relate very much to my experience shifting from one college to another. My shift to Marketing was definitely a rocky and very slippery road. I had to take the ITEO exam, the marketing qualifying exam, and I had to go through an interview with the marketing department. That experience was definitely scary and risky, but with overflowing determination, a bit of luck, and with Jordan along for the ride, it was a slippery cross I'm glad I decided to take.
