College vs. Highschool.

I never thought that high school was way way easier compared to college. Oh scumbag cousin, he said that college was easier than high school.. or maybe he finally realized that it really was.

College:
  • You can't pity the professors. NO grade means NO grade. There's no more exceptions and lousy reasons  to give you special treatment. 
  • You really have to study, study, and study. Manyana and procrastinating habits aren't effective.
  • Always read in advance. You never know when will the professor call your name when it comes to oral recitations.
  • Make the library as your second/third home. The atmosphere there is really conducive to learning. Mapapaaral ka talaga dun kasi kahit saan, may nag-aaral na estudyante doon.
  • You have to be independent. Wala ng "pakopya sa assignment!" You want to cheat? That can't happen. Professors have tiger eyes. They can see EVERYTHING and anything.
  • You're free to absent with or without valid reasons. As long as you don't exceed the limit of absences, you're fine, but when you've already exceeded your absences. 
  • You have different schedules every semester. Just so you know, my schedule is: MF = 11am - 3pm, W = 7am - 3pm, TTH = 1pm - 7pm. 

High School:
  • Teachers aren't that strict and they can be your friend and teacher at the same time.
  • You don't need to exert much effort.
  • Examinations are way easier.
  • You can pass subjects easily. Petiks mode o hindi petiks mode.
  • Garapalan ang kopyahan. Believe me. I had been there and done that.
  • I had a hard time dealing with the schedule because I'm a night person and I'm sometimes grumpy in the morning. Pahirapan magising ng maaga kasi 7am pasok mo.
  • Students are dependent to others. Magkakilala na kayo eh. Pwede ka magpagawa kay classmate A kapag tinatamad ka gumawa ng PeTa. Pwede ka kumopya kay classmate B kasi tinamad kang sumagot sa assignment.
Hay, I miss high school.
