just been thinking about this lately cos despite being a freshie and my awareness of how im just in the adjusting phase, i cant help but think everyday how ateneo might not be suited for me. it might seem like a vague reason on the surface but that sentiment is backed by many factors that i just choose not to include in this post. however, the fact that i can’t shake the thought off of my head ever since really bothers me. i cant help but think how i can be a better fit in other schools, especially if i base it off of what my friends from those said other schools have been telling me about their experiences. i don’t wanna waste this grand opportunity and privilege of studying in such a prestigious school, but it feels like i’ll just further waste it if i have repressed thoughts like this and if i cant decide for myself this early on. im scared that one day, along the way, i’ll regret my decision of staying here and drown myself in my own regrets.
