It was just like yesterday that I'm really excited about high school. I remember that day when I first wore my long-sleeved uniform. Man, it felt hot but it felt great. For me it was like the passage to my teenage years. High school was great. My first year was really rough. Teachers hated me for my very "presko" and "bastos" attitude. I allowed my bad attitude and laziness get in the way of my studies. I had a lot of crushes. Second year came and it was really great. I changed and I now had a barkada. I developed friendship with different people. I would never forget my section and of course, PEP/DABAMM. They were my second barkada. Lahat sila Dos, except me. They really taught me to be better, less pa-cute and less sensitive. They injected humor in me. As in simula second year, natuto na ako humirit. Thanks to Alya and Dichi. I also had some misunderstanding-s with a lot of people. Third year came and the bitch in me came out. Izell and I were unstoppable. People hated us, we hated them back. We talked about people behind their backs and laughed our asses out. We were inseperable. However, those people I had misunderstanding-s with came to be my friends. Who would have thought that Anjo and I would be really good friends? Crushing on Joe (haha!), watching a play instead of finishing the newspaper project for Journ and drinking alcohol together. Fourth year is incomparable. This year, the real Berna came. I became close with a lot of people. I came to know all my friends really well. Nikko, Acy, Cam, Leo, Jo, Gec, Kaye and Yeye became my groupmates. We were always unprepared but we always finish first, beating the other patrols hands down. (HAHA. Kidding) Nikko became my mentor. She guided me all year. Our Pinoy cramming and reading Gabay sa Pag-aaral ng El Fili before Pinoy class was like our bonding moments. I love Nikko. Acy and Laia. My forever friends. My room mates during our retreat. My love advisers. My classmates. My laugh trip mates. My poptarts addicts. My sex talk mates. My buddies. And lastly, my barkada. They made this journey/odyssey a lot easier. We may had a lot of misunderstanding-s, troubles, fights but we always manage to fix things up. I love you guys. This is cheesy, but friends forever dapat ah? haha.
And tomorrow is the official start of classes in DLSU. The start of adulthood. I don't know if I should be excited or not. College would not be as fun as high school, but I'm with Anjo, Kaye and Sasa so I'm sure that college wouldn't be that sad for me. Tomorrow should be good. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Hehe.
When losing and leaving come hand in hand, there will be a place you can come to, in time.
