Cycle of Adjustments

lightsandcardsThis is an attempt to make this journal more active, haha.
About my college program, Psychology, at first, before classes even started, I had ideas of wanting to shift to another course. Now, I think that's not the case anymore. I like my course. I'm kind of torn between wanting to be a clinical psychologist or a doctor in the future too (Can I have both occupations, if ever? Haha). Although I still regret failing in my first choice, MedTech, (and I regret not studying for the USTET though I don't know if there would have been a difference in the result if I studied) I'm not sure whether I'd like it less or even more than Psychology.
The first week of classes for the second semester has ended. The new schedule is quite tiring and is another thing to adjust to (and I hope I'll get used to it soon) after the "you're now in college" adjustment period.
We've met our professors and we've also been told of/given the books we need as well as their prices (the books to be used in our major subjects are more expensive than the others). Our professors in both English and Filipino were the ones we also had in the first semester and there was another professor we had as a substitute before.
In Trigonometry, we have the most feared Math professor in the College of Science (though I think everyone gets to have her as their prof one way or another). I was nervous and kind of felt like crying at the start of the class because her tone of speaking was... um... strict? I don't really know how to put it, haha. That was when she was calling our names to sign our registration forms (I think it's done to see if were actually enrolled in the subject). But, as she talked more (and even made some jokes), the strict tone kind of faded and I began to loosen up. One of the things she said was that she fails students, if they deserve to fail. For now, I think that's the main reason why older students fear her, because she fails students. Anyway, I hope I do well in the subject and get to pass. But it might be a bit tough since I feel that my math skills have become weak. ;_; XD
I'm also going to be in a contest (which will happen in the 22nd). It's a quiz contest about Psychology and we'll be competing in teams. 5 teams, each with 4 people (since all 5 sections in the 4 year levels has a representative). It was unexpected actually, since I thought I didn't do well in the test given to every section that determines the representative (I don't really know if that's the only determiner though). XD I haven't met my teammates yet and I don't really know if I'll meet them before the 22nd or not. XD
Anyway, I hope I'll do well in the second semester. :)
