Why I Am Hot
Wow, things have been crazy these past few weeks that’s why I have not updated my blog lately. Latest would be first of all, I took the last exam for my Spring semester last Saturday. Yey! So much for Spring 2008! Unfortunately, I only had yesterday (Sunday) for vacation. Yeah, cause Summer school starts today! Ha! Yeah, I enrolled for the whole 3 sessions of summer! Crazy? Yeah, I guess. I decided to preoccupy myself with school this entire season. What a way to spend ones summer “vacation,” huh? Oh well, as they say, No pain no gain. Haha!
Anyways, some of you may have known few of my clumsy stories in the past. And by that I mean incidences that happened because I could be a little klutz at times. Okay, not a little probably. So here’s another crazy story that happened to me today. So I got to school around 9 in the morning expecting my class to start at some minutes past 11. I logged on to the internet and printed out some important papers and paid some bills. Then about 10:30 I realized I dropped the class which is suppose to start today and replaced it with a one that will not start until about 3 weeks from now! You see! Ain’t that crazy! So I had to rush to the Registrar’s Office upon realizing that the class I dropped was going to start about 30 minutes from that time. I drank my can of lunch-to-go and rushed to the office. Good thing that today is the last day to add that class in person. So there I was greeted with a long line. Thank God it moved fast. Then finally it was my turn! I told the guy who entertained me my concerns, however, he said he cannot do anything about it. I would have to go to the Summer term office to have it re-added. Wow, I didn’t know where that office is ‘cause it’s my first time to enroll classes for summer.
With about 15 minutes left I rushed and looked for the said office and had to wait for a couple of minutes before it was my turn to be accommodated. Then it was me! The lady processed my requests fast enough that I was able to get to my class about 2 or 3 minutes before it would start. So talk about Supergirl!
Now, you might think my sufferings ended there, no – you’re wrong. After class I had to walk all the way to the university bookstore which is located on other end of campus. Wow! They ran out of books and CD’s. Pretty stupid of me since I was there that morning and there were still some copies left. I decided to further my sufferings and crossed the street to check out the other big bookstore. Lo and behold – they ran out too and they were the cheapest. I walked to the other bookstore that I’ve never been to since and they ran out too.
What a great day! And to top it all, it was 109 deg Fahrenheit or 42.8 deg Celsius. In English that means hot as hell! So while I was walking back to the university library, I called my dad to check the book on Barnes and Noble website. There was only one copy left out of the 5 branches near where I live. Thank God. Unfortunately, they don’t have the 4 CD set that comes with the book and the university bookstore’s order will not arrived until tomorrow. But I am left with no other choice.
However, despite the entire “marathon” (as my mom called it) under the heat of the sun, this is still a day worth looking back to. I learned so many lessons and the most important is – God is always with me. Now, I can sleep soundly. Really soundly after all the trouble I went through.
