Harsh Week in INTRICT (INTRICT)

Harsh? Indeed! This week's INTRICT was quite harsh. We were given the MID TERM PAPER last Monday and were asked to submit it on Wednesday. So what have i learn this week? Believe it or not, I slightly enjoyed making the mid term paper. It's quite fascinating to see a lot of people still online at a time that late (around 3 am.) At first, i didn't actually believe that it was possible to finish such a project (but it is truly possible to finish it in just 3 hours with the cooperation of all members.) Obviously, we were cramming like hell. But that's what i think what we should learn here in DLSU. Yes, this week, i learned the importance of cramming. I believe that we, LaSallians should learn how to face adversity even at the most "harsh" moments. This is what separates us and makes us different (in a better way) from others. We finished the project just in time for us to have a 3 hour sleep. Then the day came. My group member (Lawrence, you can visit his oh bowdown, super, ultra, greatness, superb, novel priced, poetic, awesomeness, *put all compliments* blog at http://lawrencecarltan.blogspot.com) got stuck in a traffic jam in Nagtahan Bridge (ako rin na traffic, unfortunately mas late siya umalis ng bahay.) Due to this incident, Lawrence came to school at 8:30 am so we received a 5 point deduction (Harsh noH?) It wasn't our fault that the bridge was closed. But we just accepted it and moved on. We can't always make reasons and excuses why shit happens. They just simply do. The 5 point deduction was quite hard to digest but rules are rules so we just let it go and thought of the positive side that at least Lawrence was safe (WHAT THE?) and he didn't come to school after 9 where we could have gotten a 10 point deduction. Another harsh moment in INTRICT this week was the activity conducted last Wednesday. This was the activity where we have to add a lot of cars like Toyota, Honda, Cherry (what's cherry?), and etc. None of my blockmates was able to answer the correct answers to Sir Oli's questions. The worse part of it, it was all or nothing. It's either you get the whole 100% of the points or a big fat rotten ZERO. Eventually, we all rejoiced because of the fact that none of us got a single point and we still have a chance to redeem ourselves next meeting and look forward to score some points (we've got a negative 30 on that meeting. HARSH ULE NOH?) This week's INTRICT was truly a harsh one but i guess it's part of college life. Intrict class would be one those classes that would punch us on the head and wake us up to reality and let us say "sh!t! bakit ako nag ICTM." Well at least not as "harsh" as INTRPRG where we would wake up to reality and say "sh!t! bakit pa ako nabuhay!" Joke lang hahahaha.

If you're stuck in a harsh moment just think of this
