'sociological' escapades

Thank you Lord, for I am so blessed.

I have had so many realizations today and it's all because of a simple yet meaningful experience that have helped me change my views about what REALITY is truly all about.

This experience wasn't planned, after meeting with the Guru and discuss the memorable things that are worth sharing... I guess it was just intended to happen.

I went with Jer at a place I never even knew what it was exactly and since he taught there, I was given the honor of observing him (haha, well yeah, i did observe your demeanor) as well as the society that we were currently in.

Frankly, I experienced this so-called "culture shock" at first. But since I've already learned why such things and cultures vary among others, I easily adapted and adjusted to what was "weird" and unusual at first.

Seeing how the people moved around that context, how the environment is completely different from my preconceived notions of THE "Environment" and how people saw and "interpreted" my lifestyle, I now understand how I should perceive society and why Sir Jer has always been telling me about my reality and my world.

I'm sorry for being a bit condescending, and for being "a big ego freak" sometimes.. it's just that I haven't really understood the context of how other people live.. and through this sociological experience, God has indeed planned this to happen. He wants me to realize something that I should've thought about a long time ago.

Sir, it was one hell of a tiring day.. but so many lessons will remain and be remembered. It was one practical application of what we have been studying in Sociology.

And as what you've said, "Now, you truly won't be able to forget me.." Yeah I really won't.. and will not. I'm learning reality and the difference between my perceptions and theirs.

Indeed, this has been a meaningful day and I'm more than contented and grateful to have experienced this.

the past... reawakened.

Finally after almost a month of being quiet here, I've got some reasons to blog and talk about how this day turned to be so significant yet tiring and harrassing all at the same time.

We just had our 2nd LT for Molfab (that's Molecular Fabric of Organisms) and it was definitely one successful way of making me insane and feel nauseated during and after the test. It was soooooo hard probably because I haven't taken Ch11, Ch12 and Org Chem yet.. which are all PREREQUISITES for this course... Nevertheless, I still managed to answer the damn test.. (talk about being a shiftee.....)

Looking at the bright side, I'm so glad it's over. (crossing my fingers and hoping I'd get a pleasing and satisfying mark, to say the very least)

After that harrassing and traumatic test and even receiving another not-so-bad news during Eco, I wanted to have my friends with me even just for a while to help me refresh my mood and relax despite the never-ending stress. God was right on time when He delivered twin's text message, as well as Adviser's and even Mikki's. Right then and there, I felt a little relieved and ecstatic that I still have my friends and my trusted ones with me in times of despair.

After meeting twin and talking about ambiguous subjects, there was this surprising moment that continued to amaze us until that last second that we were still together. The gang (the twins, twin's minion, and third party along with my adviser rene, bio-friends jj and mikki) strolled and talked about what exactly occurred and what was still occurring right in front of our naked eyes.

It's really difficult to type and elaborate more on that peculiar yet insightful incident. I'm just happy that all these happened today... after that dreadful freaking hell long test.. I'm finally realizing that the past has been brought back; that the "past" might still be considered the "present"; and that the memories of yesterday have been revived.

To think that WE ALL THOUGHT IT WAS OVER. Apparently NOT.

(only my closest friends can and will be able to understand if not all, at least almost all that I wrote here.. but to give you a pseudo-gist of how this significant and memorable day went... let me share with you a very fictitious dialog that jj typed a while ago, which was supposedly for our psych presentation..)


Symptoms, diagnosis, prominent persons and patients manifestations. asar sobrang antok na ako. heheheh. weird. hahaha. ang weird naman. V and X + W. sino pa ang magtutunggali sa puso ng inang reynang G!? whahahah! at si Y? ano nga ba ang papel ng dakilang enthusiast-cum-philo boy sa istorya?

V: G, pwede bang manligaw?
W: G i love you, sige babay punta pa ako sa party sa kabila
X: best friend, higher level na tayo..
Y: (dun sa sulok, nakatutok)
.

Z: sassy! nabundol ako!!
AGAIN, that was FICTION. NEVER INTENDED TO BE THE TRUTH... (a pseudo-gist, that is.)

That was weird. REALLY WEIRD. But to at least give some humor to all these, I decided to post it here.

Thanks for that, J! What a very significant point. :))

Now back to regular programming. Work, work and more work. God bless.
