Enlisted

Today, I woke up about 3:26 am. I tried to doze off for a while but I knew in my head I that I should really be jumping out of bed already. This morning (hopefully), will be the last morning that I’d be waking up very early to enrol myself in the block of my choice. That would be ACA in mind. Eventually, I found myself taking a bath by 4am and by 5 o’clock I was already ready to go to school. I expected chairs on the waiting line so I brought with me our mini pillow, hoping that I can grab myself some nap as I wait for 8am (the official time in opening the encoding office).

Upon arrival at school, I was so shocked that I found almost 20 people lining up already, STANDING. There were no chairs so I dreadfully thought of idly standing there for the next four hours. DARN. Good thing is, they are BA students and I really had nothing to worry about the block of my choice. Until then, I was undecided whether to go for the block of my choice which had a very early morning schedule (so as to inculcate discipline) and a very straightforward line up of teachers (which included a new audit problems instructor whom I have been stalking for infos since yesterday). My friends were out for ACB and people like it primarily because it doesn’t start early and the audit problems teacher is someone we’ve already known. I WAS IN COMPLETE DILEMMA.

I prayed hard that God would actually enlighten me to choose the right block. In times of doubt, I usually ask for help from someone independent, so I texted my best friend to choose between three letters; A B or C. I closed my eyes and actually cried. I didn’t really want to depend a choice of a lifetime to someone else, because it’s my life. But in the same way, I wanted to see that block in the same way others did. Perhaps I was so narrow-minded about ACA. They had the same breaks with ACB though you actually have to wake up very early. When I checked my phone, she replied; B.

The rest is history.
