Bothered

My past week was very stressful. And for the whole week, I was really bothered. The two reasons were I became very sleepy during classes for the whole week which, believe me, my first time and my org interview last Saturday.

Last Tuesday, I was a little bit excited because during my first class which is P.E., we will exercise. Excited since I really want to lose weight because, this is surprising but true, I am overweight. It may seem untrue but the last time I had my body mass index checked, I was over by two points. So then, I dressed myself with exercise clothes and went to the University Theater which was our meet-up place. Even though I came on time, our student teacher was not yet around. My classmates and I thought that he just woke up late because he normally goes to class ten minutes early. So we waited for him. Then one of my classmates realized that twenty minutes had passed so that means it was a free cut. Immediately, four of my classmates decided to leave. It was because there was a time that he went to class thirty minutes late but we still waited for him and by the time he arrived he said that it was not a free cut. With what happened, we learned that when it is already a free cut, we must directly go or else we will have a class. When we met him the next meeting, he told us that the reason he was late was he thought that our class will start at nine. I realized that our decision was right otherwise we waited there for nothing.

Then, disappointed, I went back to the dorm and changed. After which, I went to the Math Building for my Math 17 class. At first, I was attentive but as the class went on, I felt very sleepy. So sleepy that I saw everything around me doubled. I thought I was going to faint. Then, I just realized that the class was over. I experienced that for the whole week except my subjects before my lunch break. I really didn't know what was happening to me. It was my first time to experience that. Very worried, I right away consulted my mother about it. She said that maybe I was still tired from our Geog Camp or because I forgot to drink my vitamins for almost a week. Fortunately, tambay in the org was not allowed that week because of the interviews. Therefore, by the time I reached my room, I directly took a nap. I thought that it might somehow lessen my sleepiness. But having almost eight hours of sleep and vitamins, I still got sleepy. As a result, I decided to seek professional help when it will still continue this week. As I observed, it was slowly gone. Maybe my mother was right. At least now, I am not worried that I will be sleepy during my classes.

As I said earlier, I had my interview for UP PsychSoc last Saturday. According to the members, this is the most difficult part of the application process. We need to study everything because we don't know what will happen. But since I was bothered by my sleepiness, I was not focused in studying. The only time that I can say that I seriously studied was the night before and the morning of that day. Well, I cannot blame myself for what will happen. My brain really cannot hold more information. And besides, I was very nervous that I might forget what I studied. Another thing that added to my nervousness was I started very late. My original schedule was two in the afternoon but I started at three because one applicant had a very long interview. Even feeling bad that I didn't answered some questions, I still got a high score according to my panel. I was very relieved after that. I really felt that I must immediately rest after that very stressful day.

After everything that happened last week, I felt very comforted. I was very happy that I almost forgot that I have two exams this week. Well, I guess that's life, I will start a new challenge every time I finished one.
