into the 2nd week

Tuesday, August 16, 2005

I'm going to write this entry in Tagalog because... I just feel like it. -__-

2nd week of school. Parang 1st week ulit. Pano naman kasi, binago ko yung ibang subjects ko. Out go Physics 2 and Outdoor Ed... Napalitan na yun ng Research 1 at Pre-Calc. Bagong subjects, bagong classroom, bagong lunch period, bagong classmates. Ohmygahd. Ang dami ko nang na-miss sa 1st week kong absence, lalo na sa Pre-Calc. May upside din naman... Sa Research 1 classmate ko si Xiaolu, yung Chinese girl na nag-approach sa kin last week. Sa Pre-Calc naman, si Mac - the foreign exchange student from Taiwan. Sensing a pattern here? Ako rin. Puro Asians, Chinese to be specific, daw ang friends ko. As to why, I still have to figure that out. Ewan, siguro kasi mas madali silang i-approach. I think it has nothing to do with the race, but with the fact that we share something in common - we're all foreigners who are trying to blend in in a new country.

I like hanging around Mac and Xiaolu, but the prospect of not being able to blend in with ordinary American kids bothers me. I know it will do me a lot of good if I step out of my comfort zone, and I'm trying my best to blend in... I just dunno if my efforts are working.

Oh well... 2nd week pa lang naman e.
