This afternoon, I decided to just wait for my brother and save myself from the hassles of commuting. So, after buying a burrito and sago gulaman, I went to our car already. Since my brother wasn't there yet, I decided to sit somewhere along the field and enjoy my merienda. Then while munching on the burrito, a thought about the topic for this entry ran across my head. So I tried to think about what I can write for today and then I realized that what I've thought about before that was the perfect one for today. Naghanap pa talaga ako pero naisip ko na pala.
The Ateneo. If ever there are people you could say as experts about the Ateneo, then you'd rely upon the guys who have studied there since Prep. I guess nobody has enjoyed the Ateneo more than those who have stayed their since the beginning of their academic career. And I'm proud to say I'm one of them. Come to think of it, I'm actually one of the few who never actually suffered being subject to a new environment for a new chapter in my school life. I mean most people in the Ateneo today adjusted greater one way or the other than those who graduated from the High School. Well, they're actually saved from the AHS culture of study habits. Haha. But we're not really focusing on that now, aren't we?
So the thought that actually sums up what I want to say is that when I look back years from now, I'd vividly remember the Ateneo as an integral part in my formation. I'd remember all the joys and pains I've experienced in school. From Prep Mapagmahal to 7 Campion to 4A to II BS MGT-H, I've collected so much memories to cherish and reflect upon once my stay in the university finally comes to an end. Almost every place in the Ateneo, I could say that I'd relate it to specific memories I'd sometimes look back on. I'm happy that the Ateneo experience has been chockful of insights and experiences that will sustain me through the rest of my life.
Kagaya nga ni Rizal, whenever I'll pass through the university, I'd proudly say, "Diyan ang pinakamaliligayang araw ko."

I used to feel that Ateneo felt like home. After spending two years away from it, the UP School of Economics feels more like home now. :)
