LEAP (Lasallian Enrichment Alternative Program) registration day for all Lasallians! This year goes down as the first time for us freshmen to enroll in an alternative class as part of University Week from February 13 to 17. Oddly enough, LEAP will be held on February 14 this year. Yes kids, LEAP is onValentine’s Day! This is one fact that I’d be trolling around because I have to spend V-Day on a date with Hataw Hiphop 101 and with my uber friends :)
Because my friends and I enrolled an hour later than 90% of the Lasallian student population, we weren’t able to get a slot in the highly-coveted alternative classes such as Laser Tag, wall-climbing, and cooking. I wanted fashion blogging but the slots were filled so I thought of Modelling 101. But I didn’t want to take part in my first LEAP without my friends so I joined the bandwagon and looked for a class that we would really enjoy. Now that’s how we got HH 101 as our LEAP.
At 11PM, I was long asleep when one of the editors of Malate Literary Folio texted me. It was only 2AM when I learned of the message, but I didn’t read it until I got to HUMALIT class that morning. According to the Malate staffers, if you get a text that only means you qualified for one of the sections there - which I did. I made Prose as my first choice of section while Marketing and Events as second. In a bizarre twist, I got in my second choice! Well at least I got in ;)
So for the third time in a row I won’t be spending free day on a Wednesday. For the past two Wednesdays, I attended a Comic-Con and took the ITEO exam. Although it would make me lose some of my weekly allowance, at least Wednesdays aren’t for bumming around the house and doing nothing but surf the Net and watch movies. This afternoon I will be going to school for the MLF General Assembly and initiation for the new members from 2-8 PM. I’m actually hyped and nervous about it because of the initiation (which I heard would be mind-blowing). It would be also the first meeting as an official Malate staffer.
