Obviously, you haven’t filled up your plan of study. It is a REAL headache. I thought choosing majors will be the hardest part. I was wrong. Totally wrong.
Let me tell you the process:
First, you’re gonna choose your major. (Mine’s a toss up among Development Journalism, Community Broadcasting, and Educational Communication.). Then, after you got your plan of study from the College Secretary’s Office, you will choose six technical subjects, two Social Science electives, and two other majors that wasn’t a requirement of your chosen major.
Done? Not yet. You’re gonna consult your adviser and let him/her approve your plan of study. This [schedule] must appropriately fill your timetable perfectly. Once approved, go to the Department Head for another round of consultation and questioning before you’ll get that signature of hers.
Sounds easy? Hell yeah! And as students, the best part of doing something is by cramming. Deadline is August 15 and we all started doing it by August 13. Plus, there are a gazillion of rules that you must follow. There should be a pattern of technical subjects that you must remember. For example do not get Animal Science subjects and Wildlife Subjects. The reason? ANSC is Animal Production and WLDL is Wildlife Conservation. Dumb, but true!
And here’s my first take at the plan of study:
The six techincals that I chose are: BIO1, BIO2, ANSC1, ANSC2, HNF11, and HNF12. My adviser Mam De Villa (thanks a lot for helping me!!! =p) advised me to skip my HNF11, and 12 since they have no relation with BIO and ANSC subjects. Being stupid that I am, I never thought that subjects should be interrelated to one another. So she reccomended me to get Wildlife subjects instead. Ok, fine, just to finish this thing!
Now here's my revised plan of study:
And just when I thought it's now over, I received the news that the combination of ANSC, BIO, and Wildlife subjects are rejected by the Division Head. Dang! Why so late? In three hours, the deadline for the submission is so soon, yet I'm so far from being over. I am starting to feel hopeless. I am already cursing with anger because I can't understand why! My adviser approved it for me so why is it rejected? And here's more. Most of the advisers are missing! Can't they just stay on their offices just for this day!?!?! This is where our future starts! And they are dang missing!!!!
The worst part is that there are lots of Social Science electives that are so good yet you can only choose two while there are no decent techincal subjects and you need to choose six (!). Makes me wonder why does Development Communication be a Bachelor of Science instead of being a Bachelor of Arts!
I ended up getting Biology I, Biology II, Animal Science I, Animal Science II, Meat Processing. and Dairy Production. I don't even know what are gonna be tackled in those ****in' subjects. And I don't even know the subjects themselves!
But who cares? Never mind them now. As long as I'm done, I'm happy.
I'll just suffer the consequences later.
