And I survived my 1st day of on-campus class...
The night before Thursday, I logged on my eCollege Companion (a software we use for our online class). I have noticed that my on-campus class/Information Technology for Decision Making Week 1 assignments,quizzes and lecture slides were also there. Just scanning thru the instructions (without going over the details) from our Prof, I panicked and told hubby that I think we have a quiz on the 1st day, that I should be reading the whole of Chapter 1 and I have to come up with the 10-paged assignment. Grabe naturete ako! I didn't want to come unprepared. So I slept around 5am finishing everything the whole night.
Thursday came and Ethan was once again oriented with the whole situation, he kept saying "ok mommy go to school, Ethan stay with baba, Ethan no crying, be strong". But as soon as we parted ways, he cried again. Later on I found out from hubby that he was crying everytime he looks for me which is every 30 minutes. They went to the playground and to another relative's house but still after sometime, he would start looking for me. When they went home, they stayed for another 30 minutes in the porch because Ethan suggested to wait for me there. tsk tsk.
On to my class scheduled at 6-10pm, as usual I was the earliest bird. I was able to take photos of our classroom (we had to move to the computer lab after an hour, though). I was right, I was the only Asian in the class and we were all girls. There was another international student, she came from Russia. We bonded immediately. I know I made quite an introduction and ibang iba ang feeling when I told them "I CAME FROM THE PHILIPPINES", for some reasons, I felt so proud to be Pinoy. Everything went okay except for the fact that it was only me who came prepared, NO ONE made their assignments and NO ONE read the book. The quiz will be taken online anytime within a week's time and assignment will be submitted next week. Nagpakabibo kasi eh! LOL!
Fortunately, we were dismissed 30 minutes before 10pm. However, I informed hubby's cousin, who was going to pick me up that he leaves the house by 10. I had to wait for more than 30 minutes outside of the University because the guards have locked the building already. I forgot my jacket and was chilling the whole time. A female Professor volunteered to stay with me till my ride came, I was so embarrassed for her waiting there with me. Pero buti na lang kasi nakakatakot din sa labas tsk tsk.
As soon as I got home, the little boy was awaken. He was hugging me so tight and kept shouting: "mommy, mommy, mommy! Yey yey!". Ayaw magpababa, sobrang clingy! Kala mo tagal namin di nagkita hahah! So far, I am loving this whole new experience and I am determined to finish this course no matter what it takes.
